Chapter 114: Chapter 113: [Carrying the Coffin to the Qin Family]

To be honest, at this moment, Qi Ruxue didn’t know why, but she really wanted to see Ye Tianchen, to see this big bad guy in her heart. She also knew that she was being somewhat wishful, as Ye Tianchen had always been cold to her and, with Qin Heng holding a grudge against Ye Tianchen, how could it possibly be that he would come? If he did, wouldn’t that be seeking death?

Yet, Qi Ruxue couldn’t suppress the thought in her heart; she still hoped that Ye Tianchen would appear, even if it was just to glance at her. Gradually, Qi Ruxue realized that without her knowing, the shadow of this big bad guy had lingered in her heart, and she couldn’t shake it off.

The words of Qin Heng startled Qi Ruxue, who couldn’t help but glare fiercely at him. She didn’t want to bother with someone so despicable, shameless, and psychologically twisted.

”Don’t keep your hopes up, Ye Tianchen won’t come. Besides, I, for one, would love for him to show up. Just look around and see who are all here...” Qin Heng said to Qi Ruxue in a malicious whisper.

Qi Ruxue looked down and saw that around the entirety of the Qin family park, there was an armed bodyguard every ten meters or so. It turned out that Qin Heng had been prepared all along.

To say that Qin Heng had the brains of a pig wouldn’t be accurate. Born into such a prominent family, even the least clever among them would know many ways to kill. The reason why Qin Heng convinced his grandfather Qin Yi to go to the Qi family and advance the engagement ceremony by so much was because of his twisted psychological need for revenge against Ye Tianchen. On the largest gossip newspaper in the Capital City, Qin Heng had spread the word that he would bed any woman associated with Ye Tianchen, hoping to make Ye Tianchen wear a green hat, daring to see what Ye Tianchen could do about it. This was clearly looking for trouble, provoking Ye Tianchen.

Ye Tianchen, once the biggest joke in Capital City, had shocked many powerful factions in the city upon his return, and his personality could be summed up in one sentence: I never look for trouble, but I’m not afraid of it either!

Qin Heng wanted to exploit this personality trait of Ye Tianchen, hoping to provoke him into making a scene at his own engagement ceremony. He had already instructed the armed elite bodyguards that if Ye Tianchen dared to appear, they should kill him first. Moreover, Qin Heng had hired a master to be ready to strike and take out Ye Tianci at any moment. This master was well-hidden among the guests.

”You’re having delusions. Ye Tianchen won’t come. I have nothing to do with him, we’re not even friends!” Qi Ruxue said to Qin Heng.

”Heh, worried, huh? It seems you really have fallen for Ye Tianchen. Very good, very good indeed. I’m now getting more and more eager for him to show up. I will kill him before your very eyes. How’s that for a thrill?” Qin Heng said mockingly to Qi Ruxue.

”You... mad dog, you’re nothing but a mad dog...” Qi Ruxue cursed fiercely.

”That’s right, I am a mad dog. I, Qin Heng, am a mad dog no one can afford to mess with. If Ye Tianchen dares to trouble me, I’ll bite him to death!” Qin Heng had completely lost his senses to Ye Tianchen and sought only revenge.

The host onstage kept trying to smooth things over, while the guests below were somewhat embarrassed, especially the Qin family, who didn’t know where to put their faces. No one expected Qi Ruxue to say she was unwilling.

”At this moment, as Mr. Qin Heng and Miss Qi Ruxue exchange engagement rings, it’s customary for me to ask one more time, is there anyone opposed to their engagement?”

”Is there? I believe there isn’t. Mr. Qin Heng and Miss Qi Ruxue are a match made in heaven, truly a couple of talent and beauty. Now, let’s give them a warm round of applause as these two...”

”I object!”

The voice of Ye Tianchen rose, and everyone was surprised as they looked toward the great gate of the Qin family park. There they saw Ye Tianchen carrying a black coffin on his left shoulder, his face still wearing a harmless smile as he walked toward the wedding host’s platform, shocking everyone present so much that their jaws nearly dropped.

Many had heard of Ye Tianchen but had never seen him. They all wondered, who is this guy? To be so domineering as to voice opposition at someone else’s engagement ceremony and even bring a coffin, he had truly hit the Qin family’s sore spot. His courage and playfulness were impressive.

”Who is this guy, coming with a coffin? Is he tired of living?”

”What does he take the Qin family for, daring to come with a coffin and oppose the engagement of Qin Heng and Qi Ruxue? He surely won’t leave here alive.”

”He’s as good as dead, daring to cause a scene at the Qin family. Does he think he has nine lives? I really don’t know who this guy is...”

”He, he’s Ye Tianchen, I can’t believe he really came.”

”What? That’s Ye Tianchen? This...”

When someone in the know uttered Ye Tianchen’s name, many were taken aback, as they had not expected Ye Tianchen to really show up, to truly have the audacity to come, and to come bearing a coffin with such domineering manner. His courage and boldness were so impressive that people couldn’t help but admire and prostrate themselves in awe.

With his right hand in his trouser pocket and his left shouldering a large black coffin, Ye Tianchen, wearing a smile, made his way toward the engagement ceremony stage. Many people were still in a state of stupefied surprise, including the members of the Qin family, who stood frozen like chickens, unable to believe that someone would dare to intrude on the Qin family’s event while carrying such an ominous coffin.

Standing on the engagement ceremony stage, Qi Ruxue suddenly burst into tears. She hadn’t expected Ye Tianchen to really come, knowing full well that causing a scene here could lead to serious trouble and even endanger his life. But he had come anyway, just for her.

Bang!

Ye Tianchen threw the black coffin onto the ground, jolting many out of their stupor. At that moment, Ye Tianchen, with a smile on his face, said to Qi Ruxue, ”Silly woman, I just need one word from you, and I will take you away. Are you willing to get engaged to Qin Heng or not?”

His question was simple and direct, domineering yet understated, and it shocked many. This grandson of the Ye family, Ye Tianchen, was truly formidable. Those sitting in the guest seats all saw it, saw the tears in Qi Ruxue’s eyes, tears of moved joy. Despite Ye Tianchen calling her a ”silly woman,” she found it incredibly sweet at this moment. The two of them were always playing tricks on each other, hardly able to stand one another, and almost fighting every day. But at this decisive moment, the person who came to rescue her from trouble wasn’t any of those young, wealthy wretches who professed their love for her, nor the sons of rich or government officials. It was this man, with whom she always bickered like enemies. He had come to take her away, and the sentiment behind his actions was loud and clear without him saying a word.

”Of course I am unwilling; I want to leave with you!” Qi Ruxue said firmly with a nod.

”Good, I will take you away. Whoever dares to stop us will be made for this coffin,” Ye Tianchen said coldly.

”How dare you! The Qin family is not a place for your insolence. Bring a few men and kick him out!” Qin Taoyuan snapped back to reality and said angrily.

”No need for that, Ye Tianchen, didn’t think you, little bastard, would have the guts to come and court death. I really admire your courage. Today isn’t merely my engagement ceremony with Qi Ruxue; it’s the funeral that Laozi has prepared for you!” Qin Heng said, eyes bloodshot as he stared at Ye Tianchen.

By this point, Qin Heng had already summoned his armed bodyguards who had been lying in wait nearby, encircling the area. Dozens of handguns were all pointed at Ye Tianchen’s head, and at Qin Heng’s signal, these men would open fire on Ye Tianchen.

The guests attending the engagement ceremony were all terrified, with many hurriedly fleeing the Qin family’s park, scared that bullets don’t have eyes and might hit them too. In less than five minutes, the entire park was left with only Ye Tianchen, members of the Qin family, and the Qi family.

Faced with the dozens of guns pointed at his head, Ye Tianchen remained unfazed, a harmless smile on his face, infuriating Qin Heng, who had expected Ye Tianchen to beg for mercy on his knees, allowing him to step on Ye Tianchen’s face. Instead, faced with dozens of guns, Ye Tianchen showed not a hint of fear.

”Big bad guy, why did you come, why did you have to come, just leave!” Qi Ruxue screamed at Ye Tianchen, tears in her eyes.

”Do you think I came to rescue you from the pit of fire? Wrong, I heard that the Qin family is very wealthy, and everything here can be eaten and drunk for free, I came to eat and drink.” Ye Tianchen said with a smile.

”You... big bad guy, just go, you will lose your life...” Qi Ruxue started to sob, knowing that Ye Tianchen was saying he didn’t come for her, but in truth, if not for her, why would he take such a huge risk.

”Ye Tianchen, if you kneel down and beg me now, I might still spare your damn life!” Qin Heng said fiercely, staring at Ye Tianchen.

Ye Tianchen glanced at Qin Heng and said with a smile, ”Last time was just a little lesson for you, this time I brought a coffin because I was afraid your Qin family couldn’t afford such a good coffin, and after you’re dead, you wouldn’t have a place to reside. This coffin is expensive and befits your status, more than two hundred bucks... I’m quite nice to you, aren’t I?”

”You... damn it, what are you waiting for! Shoot this bastard dead!” Qin Heng roared at those bodyguards.

The bodyguards, who had their guns aimed at Ye Tianchen’s head, reacted and pulled their triggers, but no shots were fired. They looked on in perplexity, quickly checking their weapons, wondering why they had all malfunctioned simultaneously.

In fact, when Ye Tianchen had arrived, his Superpower Perception had already detected the several dozen armed elite bodyguards ambushing around the engagement ceremony. Qin Heng had guessed Ye Tianchen would come back and had prepared to kill him, so when the armed bodyguards surrounded him, Ye Tianchen used his Earth Element Power Skill to jam their guns. The most powerful aspect of the Earth Element Power was that it could even utilize the dust in the air, and it was with these airborne particles that Ye Tianchen managed to jam the guns of those bodyguards.

”What are you waiting for, pounce on him and kill him!” Qin Heng, seeing the bodyguards’ guns had jammed, shouted loudly in desperation. (To be continued.
