Chapter 565: Chapter 566: Sun Zi’ang’s Conspiracy

Song Xiaodong had gained confidence and was no longer in a hurry to defeat the two men. The strengthening of his True Qi would undoubtedly bring changes to his dexterity, so he wanted to test his reaction ability, the smoothness of his movements, and so on against the two.

"The Sun family is nothing special after all," he bellowed, charging forward ahead of them and throwing a punch at Sun Sixteen.

Despite their shock, Sun Sixteen and Sun Eighteen, trained through years of practice, refused to dwell on this disparity. Seeing Song Xiaodong rushing at them, they intuitively coordinated a pincer attack on him.

This time, Song Xiaodong did not clash head-on but lightly touched them and withdrew, competing with them in terms of moves, reaction speed, and adaptability.

Sun Sixteen and Sun Eighteen, seeing Song Xiaodong abandoning his strength advantage, were overjoyed. They had always trained together and had developed a formidable Combined Strike technique, which was far more powerful than the sum of their individual strengths when they ganged up on an opponent.

They did not confront Song Xiaodong with brute force either, completely letting loose and engaging in battle with him.

The fight lasted over ten minutes, seemingly an even match where neither could overcome the other.

However, this kind of combat was far more exhausting than sprinting a hundred meters. Consider that a hundred meters takes just over ten seconds, while this had been over ten minutes, the physical toll was immense.

Sun Sixteen and Sun Eighteen were panting heavily, their sweat turning into steam above their heads, creating a mist, their stamina evidently depleted.

Though Song Xiaodong was also sweating, he remained calm and composed, clearly not as drained as the other two.

Sun Sixteen and Sun Eighteen already knew they were defeated, unable to hold on for another minute.

But at that moment, Song Xiaodong suddenly stepped back. Sun Sixteen and Sun Eighteen immediately stopped, panting heavily and glaring at Song Xiaodong.

Song Xiaodong said indifferently, "The two of you are indeed strong, but not yet my match. Today, I will let you off. Go back and warn Sun Zi’ang to stop harassing me and my family, or next time I won’t be so lenient."

Having said that, Song Xiaodong ignored the two, turned around, and got back into the car. He did not make things difficult for them; in his heart, he was actually grateful they had given him the opportunity to test his skills.

If he had encountered these two in the past, he would have still won, but it would never have been so effortless. He now had a new understanding of his own strength and looked forward even more to the upcoming medicine.

Watching Song Xiaodong drive away, Sun Sixteen and Sun Eighteen looked at each other and then simultaneously collapsed to the ground with a thud. They didn’t even have the strength to stand, let alone fight.

After a long while, they struggled to their feet and drove directly to Sun Zi’ang’s hotel room.

"How did it go?" Seeing the two disheveled, Sun Zi’ang frowned, sensing that something was amiss.

Sun Sixteen said, "Sixth Young Master, he’s very strong. We are no match for him."

Sun Zi’ang’s expression darkened as he said, "A pair of failures."

Sun Sixteen and Sun Eighteen hung their heads in shame. For them, defeat was humiliating, and being berated by a young master like Sun Zi’ang was normal, and they found nothing out of place in it.

Sun Eighteen said at this time, "Sixth Young Master, we feel his strength may be even stronger than Brother Liu’s. If we’re going to deal with him, I’m afraid we might need Fifth Brother or Fourth Brother to take action."

Sun Zi’ang snorted coldly and said, "To deal with a person, do you have to physically eliminate him? You’re really too stupid. Doesn’t he have a sister? Just kidnap her."

Sun Sixteen furrowed his brows and spoke, "Sixth Young Master, doing this... wouldn’t it tarnish the reputation of our Sun family?"

Sun Zi’ang glared and retorted, "Damn it, that bastard slept with my fiancée, and I’ve already been cuckolded. Is there anything worse than that for our reputation? You do what I tell you to do, why so much nonsense?"

Sun Sixteen and Sun Eighteen exchanged looks, then bowed in unison and said, "Yes, Sixth Young Master!"

Sun Zi’ang’s expression then softened slightly and he continued, "But you do have a point. We need to be mindful of our Sun family’s prestige. Hence, when kidnapping his sister, make it clean, don’t let anyone capture anything on camera, to avoid leaving any traces."

Both said in unison, "Yes! There will be no mistakes this time."

"Alright, you can go now," Sun Zi’ang waved his hand.

After the two had left, Sun Zi’ang’s face twisted into a ferocious grin, and he sneered, "Song Xiaodong, you son of a bitch, daring to play with my woman, then I will play with your sister first. I will become your brother-in-law, and we’ll see if you enjoy that."

Song Xiaodong had not anticipated that Sun Zi’ang would target Song Xiaoru. He knew a bit about these large families, especially ones like the Su and Sun families. Although they were dominant, they valued face and reputation the most. They would not easily engage in actions that could disgrace their family name.

Upon returning home, Song Xiaodong did not mention the scuffle with Sun Sixteen and Sun Eighteen. Such violent affairs would only burden them if disclosed.

The atmosphere at home was already somewhat oppressive due to Sun Zi’ang’s issue, and Song Xiaodong certainly didn’t want to exacerbate the tension.

After dinner, Song Xiaodong called Miao Xuanxuan and Xiao Yingying to play games.

Of course, during the gaming breaks, the three naturally engaged in some unmentionable activities.

In the midst of it, Xiao Yingying was called out by Song Xiaoru, leaving only Miao Xuanxuan and Song Xiaodong in the room.

"Xuanxuan, I’ve missed you so much. When can we..." Song Xiaodong winked at Miao Xuanxuan.

At this moment, Miao Xuanxuan pouted and said, "Dongzi, after thinking it over, let’s forget it. Even if it was me two years ago, you still have to be with Qingqing. Sneaking around for a bit is one thing, but if we actually have a relationship, I’d feel really guilty towards Qingqing."

"Really?" Song Xiaodong frowned.

"Yes, I can’t get over this feeling right now. Unless you can find a way to make my sister accept me? Then, it would be fine for both of us to be together. At the moment, it just feels awkward."

Song Xiaodong felt that Miao Xuanxuan was deceiving himself, but he also understood her; after all, the other person was her sister. If it were someone else, Miao Xuanxuan would definitely not have these concerns. He could only nod and reply, "Alright then, we’ll wait until you no longer feel awkward to proceed."
