The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 554 Scared Silly

Song Gui stood motionless in the hospital corridor, his head buzzing, his lips deathly pale. It felt as though his soul had been hooked away, his legs weak and wobbly as if he might collapse at any moment.

For a minute, two minutes, three minutes, Song Gui was dazed. Then he slowly came to his senses and hurried back to the VIP ward where Song Feng and Song Bin were staying, running in a zigzagging fashion because he knew the severity of the situation. It was very likely that the Songs would never be able to turn things around in Capital City ever again.

In a twin VIP ward on the third floor, learning that Ye Chenfeng might be dead and that the Yes were about to be ruined, the people of the Songs were overjoyed. Even Song Bin, whose limbs had been crippled and genitals blown apart, managed to maintain an eerily sinister smile on his face.

"Xiaobin, are you satisfied now? We just have to wait and see Ye Chenfeng’s body turned into meatballs!" Song Feng said in an exceptionally good mood.

"That’s not nearly enough. Once the Yes are finished, I will get my hands on Ye Chenfeng’s fiancée, Wu Xiaofei. Even though I’ve lost the use of my lower half, I can use a wooden stick, I can use my mouth, and still give Wu Xiaofei the time of her life. I want to make Wu Xiaofei, Ye Chenfeng’s fiancée, my plaything for life," Song Bin shouted, his voice hoarse, veins bulging on his forehead, his emotions extremely unstable.

"Xiaobin, once the Yes are done for, we, your elders, will make sure you get what you want. Not just Ye Chenfeng’s fiancée Wu Xiaofei, we will even get Bai Xueling for you, and then let them serve you for a lifetime," Song Bin’s uncle, Song Lie, promised, pounding his chest.

"Xiaobin, you just focus on recovering now. Your dad will definitely find Ye Chenfeng’s corpse for you. Our family will make the Yes pay a terrible price, even wipe them off the face of the earth," Hu Lu comforted her beloved son.

"Bang!"

Just then, the door to the ward was flung open with force. Song Gui’s steps were light, his cheeks covered in a dense layer of sweat, his mouth gasping for air heavily.

Seeing Song Gui rush back breathlessly, the people of the Songs in the ward didn’t notice his pale complexion and were gleaming with happiness, believing that Song Gui had brought them good news.

"Dad, why have you come back so soon? Has Ye Chenfeng already died? That’s excellent, excellent! It’s a pity I didn’t kill him myself. You must find Ye Chenfeng’s body for me," Song Bin said excitedly.

"Big brother, who would have thought the Ancient Martial World would act so swiftly? I’ve fought with Ye Chen before, and he truly had some skills," Song Feng, lying in the hospital bed, immediately followed up.

"Big brother, now that Ye Chen is dead, does that mean we’re going to target the Yes next?" Song Lie casually asked, craning his neck.

"Husband, will you just speak up! Are you so happy that you’ve lost the ability to talk? That Ye brat should have reported to Yama’s Palace a long time ago," Hu Lu said, looking at Song Gui, who was only busy catching his breath.

"Huff! Huff! Huff!"

"Glug! Glug! Glug!"

Song Gui took three deep breaths, steadied his breathing, swallowed thrice, and with trembling lips said, "I... I didn’t receive news that Ye Chenfeng has been killed."

"Big brother, then why did you rush back here in such a hurry?" Song Lie asked, looking at Song Gui in confusion.

"Listen to me, our family, the Songs, might be finished," Song Gui said, and after uttering those words, he seemed to be drained of all strength, leaning against the wall of the ward, his eyes filled with panic and confusion.

What?

The Songs finished?

How is that possible?

Just moments ago, the Songs in the ward were still immersed in utter joy, so how had Song Gui come back so soon to deliver this terrible news? If it weren’t for Song Gui standing in front of them, they would have surely thought whoever brought this news had their brains kicked in by a donkey. How could the Songs, one of the most eminent families in Capital City, be finished just like that?

"Dad, have you lost your mind? How could our family, the Songs, be finished? Are you playing a joke on us?" Song Bin asked, bewildered.

"Right, Brother! Make yourself clear for once!" Song Lie immediately chimed in.

Song Gui took out his cell phone from his pocket and handed it to Song Lie, saying, "This news is spreading like wildfire on all the websites in our Huaxia Country. Once you read the content, you’ll understand the gravity of the situation."

"Brother, is it as serious as you make it out to be? What kind of news has got you so out of sorts?" After Song Lie took Song Gui’s cell phone, the moment he saw the news on the webpage, his eyes bulged wide as if they were lanterns, and the hand holding the phone began to tremble, his face turning as deathly pale as Song Gui’s.

Then, Hu Lu, Song Feng, and Song Bin also took turns looking at the news about the Songs on the cell phone screen. For a moment, the entire hospital room fell into a dead silence, all of them unable to fathom how their plan with the Xuantian Sect could have been leaked onto the internet.

After a short while, Song Lie’s eyes suddenly sparkled, and he said, "Brother, we should immediately notify all the major websites to delete the news about our family, to try and keep the damage to an absolute minimum."

Song Gui shook his head and replied, "It’s no use. I’ve already made the calls. The websites say that hackers have breached their systems, and now they can’t even control it themselves. We must rush back to the Song residence right away. I think Dad must not yet know about this; otherwise, he would have called me by now."

"Brother, I’ll go back with you," Song Lie hastily said.

"Husband, I’ll go back with you too," Hu Lu echoed.

"Wife, you stay at the hospital to take care of the two of them. Going back with us won’t be of any use," Song Gui flatly refused.

Watching the hurried departure of Song Gui and Song Lie, Song Feng, Song Bin, and Hu Lu sat in the hospital room with a vacant look in their eyes, as if they had forgotten just how elated they had been when they heard that Ye Chenfeng might be killed. How quickly had their fortune reversed?

Little did they know that in the blink of an eye, the Songs were now facing a life-and-death situation.

And the person orchestrating this situation was none other than Ye Chenfeng, whom they hated to the bone.

...

As the news about the Song family wreaked havoc on all websites, the Song family’s patriarch, Song Yigang, had just finished a senior meeting and returned to the study in the Song residence, patiently awaiting good news from Shao Yangren, blissfully unaware that one foot of the Songs was already stepping into an abyss.

An urgent flurry of footsteps reached the patriarch’s study as Song Gui and Song Lie directly pushed open the door, causing Song Yigang’s brows to furrow as he barked, "What’s with this rash intrusion? I’ve told you since you were children to knock before entering my study. Have you two gone brain-dead?"

Seeing his father’s composed demeanor, Song Gui immediately guessed that his father was yet unaware of the situation on the websites and hastily said, "Dad, we are in big trouble. You need to look at the news on the websites now!"

Song Gui promptly handed his cell phone to Song Yigang, who took it with a grim expression, remarking, "Even if you were on fire, you should still act with the decorum of scions from a major family. At this rate, the Song family will surely decay under your stewardship."

After scolding Song Gui and Song Lie, Song Yigang turned his attention to the cell phone in his hand. As he saw the news about the Songs on the website, his face changed dramatically, and the muscles at the corners of his eyes began to twitch uncontrollably.

The detailed plans between the Songs and the Xuantian Sect were laid bare in the news – how could this have happened?

With a "bang!"

Song Yigang, having not seated himself properly, fell straight from the chair to the floor. He was well aware that if the major families in Capital City had seen and believed this news, the Song family was likely doomed.

Song Yigang was scared witless.

He forgot the lecture he had just given to Song Gui and Song Lie. He was even more acutely aware that if the plans between the Song family and the Xuantian Sect were exposed, it would spell catastrophic disaster for the Songs.

And this was only the first move by Ye Chenfeng. The Songs were in for an even more brutal slaughter. (To be continued.
