Is It So Easy to Take Advantage of My Family?

"Ow!"

The village chief woke with a cry of pain.

Before he could figure out what was happening, Ye Tian pinned him underfoot.

"Who told you to do this?"

"Speak!"

The village chief felt as if a mountain were pressing down on his chest, leaving him unable to breathe.

"I don't know what you're talking about."

"Brat, let me go, or else..."

Bang!

Ye Tian kicked him, breaking three or four of his ribs.

Cold sweat poured down the village chief's face as he howled in pain.

"My patience is limited."

"I'll give you one last chance."

"Talk, or die!"

The village chief looked at Ye Tian, anger in his eyes.

But when he saw the icy killing intent in Ye Tian's eyes, he shuddered involuntarily.

Only then did he realize that Ye Tian was no longer the mild-mannered young man he once knew.

He was an executioner who killed without batting an eye!

The bodies of those thugs outside were proof enough.

"I'll talk, I'll talk," the village chief said hurriedly, his heart trembling with fear.

"It was Bai Long. Bai Long told me to do it."

"I don't know anything else!"

Bai Long again?

Ye Tian narrowed his eyes, killing intent flashing through them.

Bai Long had crossed Ye Tian's bottom line again and again.

No matter what, he couldn't be allowed to live!

"If you ever dare bully my parents again, I'll make sure you can never be reborn!"

"Get lost!"

Ye Tian kicked the village chief all the way to the doorway.

The village chief grimaced, struggled to his feet through the agony, and fled.

"Xiao Tian, hurry and leave."

"Once the village chief gets back, he'll definitely bring people here for revenge!"

"And Captain Wang won't let it go if he finds out he's been tricked."

"Listen to your mother. Leave now, and go as far away as you can."

Song Qin stepped forward and hurriedly urged him again.

Ye Tian smiled and reassured her.

"Mom, don't worry."

"I told you, no one can bully us anymore."

"No matter who comes, I'm not afraid!"

"Why won't you listen, child? We can't afford to provoke them!" Song Qin cried anxiously.

"Mom, trust me!" Ye Tian looked Song Qin straight in the eyes and spoke with utter conviction.

Song Qin looked at Ye Tian's eyes, calm as still water. For some reason, she suddenly felt completely reassured.

Her lips moved, but in the end, she sighed and said,

"All right, I trust you."

"But if you're in danger, I'll protect you even if it costs me my life."

Ye Tian's heart clenched, and tears nearly fell.

"Mom, let's not talk about that."

"What happened to our house?"

Ye Tian changed the subject.

Song Qin sighed, a trace of sadness flashing in her eyes.

"After your dad was beaten and injured, we spent all our savings on his treatment."

"I tried to borrow money everywhere, but no one would lend me any."

"Your second aunt came to us and bought our little two-story house for thirty thousand yuan. She wouldn't pay a cent more."

"To save your dad, I had no choice but to sell it."

Thirty thousand yuan?

Ye Tian raised his brows, anger showing on his face.

His family had spent nearly five hundred thousand yuan building and renovating their two-story house.

Yet his second aunt had paid only thirty thousand?

"Mom, I'm going out for a bit. I'll be back soon."

With that, Ye Tian got up and left the room.

As soon as he stepped outside, a layer of frost seemed to settle over his face.

Hmph. As a relative, she didn't help when my father was in danger, and that was bad enough.

But she even took advantage of the fire to rob us!

Still, is it so easy to take advantage of my family?

Burning with boundless rage, Ye Tian headed toward his family's little two-story house.

From a distance, he saw Du Ping leaning against the doorframe, leisurely cracking melon seeds.

When she saw Ye Tian return, she immediately spoke in a mocking tone.

"Back so soon?"

"Did you see your parents?"

"Oh, you have no idea how pitiful your parents are now."

"They live in that old house every day, with wind and rain leaking in."

"Not like my little two-story house. It's so comfortable to live in."

"Hey, what are you doing?!"

Before Du Ping could finish speaking, Ye Tian grabbed her by the collar and threw her out.
