Chapter 98: End

~7 min read 1,317 words

At this moment, Sun Hongqi was hiding behind a broken wall with someone.

The people outside were shouting for them to surrender.

By now Sun Hongqi also realized they had fallen into a trap.

Someone wanted to use them; this was clearly a trap set deliberately by Yang Qing.

He had just helped someone up, preparing to deal with Yang Qing, when news arrived that Yang Qing was handling the property.

How could there be such a coincidence?

The news was so secret; how could they possibly learn it so easily?

He now regretted not listening to his father and having a proper job.

Because of his recklessness, he also dragged his father into it.

Now he feared his father might be in grave danger.

He looked at the person beside him.

"We're already surrounded; surrender."

That person turned the gun toward him.

"I can kill you right now."

"Surrender? Some people can surrender, but we cannot."

"We are genuine intelligence operatives; if we surrender, not a single family member on WanDao will survive."

"Our only path is death."

"Surrender and you won't be killed; don't make a desperate last stand."

"The people down in the well have all surrendered."

"Lay down your weapons and seek lenient treatment."

"We treat prisoners well."

"A puff—one shot, that's the answer."

At that moment, Yang Qing also crawled out.

In May, the sky grew dark later.

The sun ignited a vast expanse of clouds in the west, turning this land somewhat red.

Not far from the well mouth, seven people lay fallen.

The mask had been pulled off, and it wasn't the person he wanted.

Yang Qing looked toward Ge Liang.

"How come someone hasn't been caught yet?"

Ge Liang asked his colleagues.

"There are still two people hiding under that wall."

"To avoid unnecessary casualties, we are currently persuading them to surrender."

Yang Qing glanced at the fallen people.

All were hit in the front.

"These are the rear guards; they're die-hard loyalists—how could they possibly surrender easily?"

Yang Qing let out a sigh.

"Shall I give it a try?"

Ge Liang looked at him suspiciously.

"You?"

Yang Qing nodded.

"You suspect Sun Hongqi is one of those two."

Ge Liang thought for a moment.

"Then go try it."

Soon Yang Qing came forward; after Ge Liang greeted him, he brought him a megaphone.

"Cough cough..."

"Sun Hongqi, I am Yang Qing."

"Your father Sun Hao has already surrendered; if you don't surrender now, when will you?"

Upon hearing that Sun Hao had surrendered, Sun Hongqi glanced at the person pointing a gun at him and cursed desperately.

"Yang Qing, you troublemaker."

"Knowing you, the Sun family has suffered eight lifetimes of bad luck."

Yang Qing snorted.

"Hmph, Sun Hongqi, if your father hadn't known the Yang family, your Sun family would have long been extinct."

"If Sun Hao weren't a helper in our household, how could he have had the chance to rob us and exchange it for your current affluent life?"

"Nor would there have been an incident where he almost beat me to death, yet I didn't die."

"My being alive has made you long for me for over a decade."

"Sun Hongwei went in because of me; Sun Hao was captured because of me; now you, too, because of me, are about to become a prisoner."

Sun Hongqi exclaimed in surprise.

"Yang Qing, you know it was my father who robbed your family?"

"As expected, you knew; if I had known earlier, I should have killed you sooner."

Yang Qing hummed twice.

You're not without a chance; you're just reluctant—you don't want to, for the sake of my miserable life, leave behind future trouble.

I thank you all; if you weren't trying to bully me to death, I wouldn't have had the chance to take revenge and settle my grievances.

Sun Hongqi flew into a rage.

Yang Qing, your smugness is worthless; without our Sun family, there are still others.

Can't you see? How many people are watching you.

You wouldn't think it's only these people, would you?

There are many more; let's see how you die.

Yang Qing sighed, thinking he was right, but he couldn't yield in momentum.

I've handed over all my treasure; who would still care about a poor wretch like me?

Sun Hongqi wished he could kill Yang Qing right now; of course he couldn't let him be alright.

Who knows if you've hidden anything else.

Your father Yang Rong is so cunning; how could he possibly hide everything in one place.

Hahaha...

Yang Qing, you can't shake it off; this is your fate.

Yang Qing felt a chill in his heart.

Sun Hongqi reminded him; because of this, he would certainly not escape those ten years.

Even if he truly didn't know, it wouldn't stop others from thinking you have it.

If you can produce one, you can produce more.

In an instant, Yang Qing was drenched in sweat.

Upon hearing Sun Hongqi's words, the others also turned their gaze to him.

Ge Liang, seeing this, took the trumpet from Yang Qing's hand.

Sun Hongqi, stop stirring up trouble.

The matter of money and wealth has nothing to do with Yang Qing; he was so young back then.

How could Yang Rong possibly tell him such important news.

Besides, Yang Rong was taken away very suddenly back then.

It was so sudden that Yang Qing didn't even have time to take anything.

How could he have had the chance to tell Yang Qing about the hidden treasure.

We've already investigated this matter thoroughly.

Sun Hongqi was still unwilling.

Then what's the deal with the silver coins now?

If it weren't for his father telling him the news, how could he possibly know there's a treasure here.

Ge Liang burst out laughing.

Because, this treasure, we put it in ourselves.

Sun Hongqi was stunned upon hearing that.

You, you...

A mouthful of fresh blood spurted from Sun Hongqi's mouth.

Conspiracy, it's all a conspiracy.

They're just like fools, being played around in circles.

His father still considers himself clever, thinking others have caught them in a bind.

This really is a huge joke.

Ge Liang doesn't have time to wrangle with them; delaying further, it'll get dark and likely cause unnecessary casualties.

Sun Hongqi, will you surrender or not? If you don't surrender, we'll have to throw grenades.

Another person realized there was no chance.

He pointed at Sun Hongqi.

You should surrender.

Sun Hongqi didn't expect this person to let him go at this moment.

Having just finished with indignation and despair, he now has hope again.

Really, you'll let me go?

That person shook his handgun.

If you don't go out now, your family could be wiped out.

I can't bear to see others' lineages cut off.

You may go.

Those words are still persuasive; in this era, cutting off one's lineage is the harshest curse.

Otherwise, Yi Zhonghai wouldn't have such obsession, scheming so many things just to support his old age and see his end.

Sun Hongqi hesitated a moment, then probed.

Then I'll go.

That person waved his hand.

Hurry up, hurry up.

Only then did Sun Hongqi raise his hand.

I surrender, I surrender, don't throw the grenades.

He said, stood up, and walked forward.

Seeing someone surrender, the others instinctively lowered their guns.

Yang Qing knew there were two people; seeing Sun Hongqi emerge but not the other, a bad premonition suddenly welled up in him.

"Be...... care........"

Before he could finish speaking, his premonition became reality.

Another person suddenly appeared behind Sun Hongqi, then raised his gun and fired.

While Yang Qing was giving the warning, he raised his own Browning.

Bang bang bang……

In an instant, two comrades fell.

The others also came to their senses.

Under a hail of gunfire, Sun Hongqi became a sieve, and those behind him also fell.
