Chapter 568: A Scourge for a Thousand Years

When enemies meet, their eyes turn exceptionally red.

Sheng Yukai turned off the flashlight, and in an instant, it returned to darkness; he didn't like it turned off, yet he was more accustomed to the darkness, finding it gave him a sense of security.

"Yixin, long time no see. We've finally met again. Did you miss me?" Sheng Yukai said to her from a position of superiority, using the tone of a victor.

From childhood to adulthood, Jian Yixin had always been gentle and soft; she would smile at everyone, but that "everyone" did not include him.

She looked so beautiful when she smiled, as bright as the sunshine, but she would never smile at him, so from that time on, Sheng Yukai had already stopped liking the sunshine.

"Yes, I missed you very much."

Jian Yixin sneered: "I have always wanted you to die! Why haven't you died yet?"

"Hahahaha..."

Sheng Yukai began to laugh, a loud laugh.

It had been a long time since he had laughed so happily; sure enough, it was exactly the same as before, not changed in the slightest.

This woman had hated him since she was a child, and that had never changed.

He said: "Good people don't live long, while scourges live for a thousand years; haven't you heard this saying? There are many people who want me dead, but why is it that I just haven't died? It's because I am a big villain, a thorough, top-to-bottom big villain."

"So I am still alive; are you satisfied with this answer?"

"Shameless." Jian Yixin stopped paying attention to him.

The east revealed a fish-belly white; the sky was just beginning to brighten.

Jian Yixin discovered that she was in an environment with walls on three sides and open to the sky on one, like a house that hadn't been finished, and she was lying on the cold, hard cement floor.

The cement floor was not level, and it poked her painfully everywhere.

But this discovery made her secretly happy; being able to feel pain was a good thing, as it meant her senses were gradually recovering and her strength was returning.

Jian Yixin didn't move, pretending that the effects of the drug hadn't worn off yet, while seizing the opportunity to observe everything around her and look for a chance to escape.

But she couldn't run away alone; there was still Moli.

"Where is the child? Where did you take my son?" Jian Yixin asked.

"Oh, that little wild brat? He was too noisy, so I fed him some sleeping pills and now he's asleep," Sheng Yukai said dismissively.

Jian Yixin was furious: "You've gone too far; he is only a few months old, how could you feed him sleeping pills? Give my son back to me, otherwise you will definitely regret it." She didn't reveal the truth.

She didn't tell Sheng Yukai that Moli's surname was Shi and that he was born to Shi Yuke.

If possible, she intended to keep it hidden forever.

A person like Sheng Yukai didn't even deserve to be a human, let alone a father!

"Regret? Hahahaha..."

He suddenly laughed wildly as if he had heard a huge joke, laughing until tears came out.

The turtle on his face seemed to crawl forward when he laughed, as if it were alive, which made Jian Yixin's skin crawl.

After finally laughing enough, Sheng Yukai took out a handkerchief and elegantly wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, then said: "Jian Yixin, I have done many things I regret, but this time is not one of them."

"Jian Yixin, you really have a tough life; two big fires didn't burn you to death. Is it destined that you are meant to be mine?"

Jian Yixin:...

When Sheng Yukai said the first half of the sentence, she thought he was going to kill her.

As it turned out, he was still coveting her; this person was beyond saving, and he would never be able to change that lecherous heart of his.

She wanted to take this opportunity to escape.

Jian Yixin's expression softened slightly, and she said to Sheng Yukai: "A Kai, I married your own younger brother, Ze Rong. I am your sister-in-law now; you shouldn't have any improper thoughts about me anymore."

He was indifferent: "What does being a sister-in-law matter? Didn't you almost become my sister-in-law back then? It doesn't affect anything."

"As long as you agree, I can make you my woman right now. In the future, you can follow me to live the high life and travel the world; it's much better than following that bookworm Sheng Zerong. He is so boring; I know how to have fun better than him." He described fleeing everywhere as something so fresh and refined; this point was still the same as before, unchanged.

Sheng Yukai moved toward Jian Yixin step by step...

"Come on, baby, you know I've liked you for many years. As long as you submit to me, the past between us will be wiped clean!" He began to unbutton his clothes.

After unbuttoning two, he probably felt it was too slow and impatiently tore his clothes open, revealing his big white belly.

Jian Yixin suppressed her nausea and said to him: "Right here? No, you don't have any sincerity at all."

Sheng Yukai stood in front of her, smiling without mirth: "What kind of sincerity do you want? Don't tell me you want me to send you back so you can divorce Sheng Zerong before coming with me."

"I'm not a fool, nor am I a child; don't try to use that old trick of yours to fool me again."

Jian Yixin: "I am in your hands, how could I fool you? I didn't say to send me back, but it can't be in a place like this either. At the very least, you should find a five-star hotel, the kind with a soft, big bed."

"Hahahaha..."

Sheng Yukai let out another burst of hair-raising laughter.

"Jian Yixin, you haven't improved at all. It must be because you've had it too easy these years, you've even regressed. You don't think these childhood tricks can still fool me, do you?"

He didn't fall for it.

"Come on, baby, I've missed you for so many years; there's no time like the present, let's do it now." Sheng Yukai lunged forward...

"Thump—"

She gathered all her strength into her foot and kicked Sheng Yukai in the lower abdomen, sending him flying several meters away.

Jian Yixin scrambled up from the ground and ran outward, shouting "Help!" as she ran.

But the only response to her in the surroundings was the "whoosh" of the wind.

Two hours after Sheng Zerong was taken away by the police.

At the entrance of the police station.

The officer personally sent Sheng Zerong out; the apologies had already been made inside just moments ago, and now he was saying things like guaranteeing that they would definitely find the person.

The two police officers who had taken Sheng Zerong away had already been disciplined.

It wasn't Sheng Zerong who had called the police to the scene; they had received a report from someone claiming to be a resident of the residential complex, stating—they suspected Sheng Zerong of arson and murdering his wife and son.

The caller said on the phone that the couple was always arguing, and they always argued in the middle of the night.

The police received the report, arrived at the scene to see the house already burned down and several people dead, so they preconceived that what the caller said was the truth and arrested Sheng Zerong.

After he was taken away, another group of police also arrived.

The police who came later were the ones Sheng Hanyu had called; the people who arrived were criminal investigation police, whereas the previous ones were just 110.

Even though they were just 110, if everyone had been agitated and refused to let them take Sheng Zerong away at the time, they would have been treated as having committed the crime of obstructing official business.

Fortunately, Shi Youxuan stopped Ma Ling'er in time, so when the second group of police arrived, someone was able to provide the first-hand information to the police in time, and then everyone went to the station to see Sheng Zerong.

It was not without any benefit that Sheng Zerong was taken away; leaving home, his thoughts returned, and he could communicate normally.

He told the police that the person who set the fire must be Sheng Yukai.

The disappearance of his wife and son must also be related to him!

Everyone took separate actions.

Casting a wide net, searching everywhere.

……

Jian Yixin ran down one flight of stairs and stopped herself.

No, she could not just run away like this!

Moli had not been rescued yet; if she ran, the child would be doomed.
