Chapter 775 Crazy Year
Chapter 775 Crazy Year
There was a two-hour time difference between Country S and Country A. At that moment, the villa halfway up the mountain was bathed in dusk, the setting sun melting into gold, smearing the sky into a palette of pink and blue, magnificent as a dream.
Shen Nian had just hung up the phone, and the dim light of the screen faded from his eyes. He turned his head and cast his gaze towards the shimmering swimming pool.
Several strong men roughly pushed Shen Guiling into the cold water again and again. The splashes became weak and powerless from the initial violent splashing. Shen Guiling's body softened, and it was obvious that he had exhausted his last bit of strength.
By the swimming pool, a new round of torture has just ended.
The corners of Shen Nian's lips curled up slightly, and the anger in his heart finally eased a little.
He glanced over there, and the leading man immediately understood. He waved his hand and had someone drag Shen Guiling out of the water and threw him heavily on the tiles at Shen Nian's feet like a bag of rags.
Shen Guiling collapsed on the ground, soaked all over, coughing miserably, with water droplets dripping from the ends of his hair.
"Are you still breathing?" Shen Nian slowly squatted down, stretched out his hand and grabbed Shen Guiling's hair, forcing her to look up. "You're lucky. Yu Sheng is half dead. I'm afraid he won't be able to identify you for the time being."
Shen Guiling shook her head in disgust, breaking free from his grip, her eyes filled with undisguised contempt, "You're probably lucky. Isn't this exactly what you wanted?"
Shen Nian narrowed his eyelids slightly, his sharp gaze lingering on her face for a long time, and finally a low laugh rolled out of his throat, "That's right. It's exactly what I want."
He leaned closer, lowering his voice to a venomous hiss. "Shen Guiling, I'm not that old scoundrel Li Ru. I'm not as easy to fool as he is. Don't think I don't know. You signed so readily. You must have tampered with the contract, right?"
The corner of Shen Guiling's mouth twitched, neither admitting nor denying.
Shen Nian didn't expect her answer and continued, "You may not care about the Shen family, but what about Jiang Huashan?" He deliberately dragged out his tone, admiring the subtle changes in her expression. "How did you threaten me for her back then? Have you forgotten?"
Hearing the words "Jiang Huashan", Shen Guiling's eyes suddenly turned cold, as if covered with a layer of frost. "Since you know, why don't you tell Li Ru?"
Shen Nian shrugged nonchalantly. "Why should I tell that old man? My last name is Shen, not Li." His expression suddenly became serious and gloomy. "If the Shen family really becomes traitors, what good will it do me if I inherit the family business?"
Shen Guiling laughed out loud as if he had heard an extremely ridiculous joke, "You? Inherit the family business?"
The laughter was full of sarcasm.
Shen Nian's face instantly darkened to the point of dripping water. He suddenly grabbed Shen Guiling's collar and pulled her close to him, his eyes swirling with twisted malice. "What are you laughing at? Do you think I'm unworthy?!"
He almost roared, "As long as Shen Lanxi and Shen Qian are dead! The Shen family will be mine!"
Shen Guiling met his crazy gaze and reminded him coldly: "Don't we still have Shen Qingyu? Although that guy is also an idiot, he is still more than enough to defeat you."
"..." Shen Nian's anger suddenly surged, "Then I will kill him too!"
"What about Shen Rang and Shen Yuan? Oh, and Shen Jiao and Shen Mianzhi..." Shen Guiling continued to add, as if reading a death list.
The veins on Shen Nian's forehead bulged violently, and he gnashed his teeth. Every word he said was filled with venom. "Then I'll kill them one by one, until they're all gone! They all have to die! Just like those two idiots, Shen Yize and Shen Yijie! They naively thought I could help them return to the Shen family? Ridiculous! Everyone in the Shen family, except me and Grandpa, will die!"
Shen Guiling's eyes dimmed slightly, and she couldn't help but glance at Shen Nian deeply, but her words were still provocative, "You're right. But the stupidest one is probably Shen Che... He still doesn't know who killed his child?"
Shen Nian's eyes suddenly became deep and deep, he stared at Shen Guiling, as if he wanted to dig out something deeper from her face.
After a brief standoff, he suddenly pushed her away, his tone filled with disgust, "So, what I hate most is self-righteous smart people like you! Since you know everything, you shouldn't have agreed to let Shen Qian come to Country S."
He stood up and suddenly laughed grimly again, "Because... you will die, hahahahahahaha!!!"
Shen Nian suddenly became like a puppet out of control, running back and forth while laughing. "You all must die! I will kill you one by one, until you are all gone!"
Suddenly, he rolled his eyes, leaned close to Shen Guiling's ear, and whispered softly, "You are the one who deserves to die the most. What gives you the right to replace me? Why does your grandfather accept you just because you are Shen Qian's son? I won't expose you, but I will personally throw you down from a height of ten thousand feet. I want to see with my own eyes how wonderful Shen Qian's expression will be then! Hahahahaha..."
Shen Nian's frantic laughter echoed by the swimming pool at dusk, distorted and harsh, forming a terrifying contrast with the gentle pink and blue twilight behind him.
"Die! Everyone must die! Hahahaha..."
A man in a black suit, who looked like an assistant, immediately stepped forward, his face full of anxiety and fear. He quickly took out a small medicine bottle from the inside pocket of his suit, poured out two white pills and handed them to Shen Nian.
"Young Master Anian, it's time for you to take your medicine." With trembling hands, he tried to pass the pill to Shen Nian's lips.
"Get out of here!" Shen Nian swung his hand with immense force, striking the assistant's hand. The pills flew out, scattering across the wet tile floor. The assistant staggered, clutching the back of his hand, not daring to move forward.
Just then, the butler walked hurriedly across the corridor.
"Master Anian, someone is coming from Country A."
Shen Nian covered half of his face, his eyes filled with murderous intent, "Shen Qian's men? He came to rescue this bastard?"
"No!" The butler shook his head quickly, his voice trembling uncontrollably. "It was Manager Zheng! Manager Zheng said that the old man asked him to take you back to the country."
"Old man?"
These three words were like a thorny piece of ice, suddenly piercing Shen Nian's frenzy. His laughter stopped abruptly, and he froze in place, only his chest still rising and falling violently.
He turned his head abruptly, his sinister eyes fixed on the small pill that had fallen to the ground. After a few seconds of suffocating confrontation, the madness in his eyes was gradually replaced by a more complex viciousness.
He suddenly bent down, picked up the two white tablets stained with water and dust from the ground, and threw them directly into his mouth without even looking at them. His Adam's apple rolled as he swallowed them hard.
Then, he raised his hand and slowly straightened his collar and cuffs which had been messed up by his rage, as if he had instantly turned back into the respectable young master of the Shen family, if one ignored the still scarlet corners of his eyes and those bottomless eyes that concealed a storm.
"lead the way."
His voice was hoarse and had a barely perceptible tremor.
