My Ares Son-in-Law

Sitting in the passenger seat, Xiao Chen frowned and leaned back in his chair, still thinking about the previous matters. Cheng Tianan glanced at him, but didn't dare to say anything. He started the car silently, and the wheels rolled slowly, rolling over the ground, making a dull sound and blending into the night.

The car shuttled smoothly through the city streets. The street lights on both sides were like silent guards, rapidly retreating one by one, casting mottled light and shadows into the car.

At this moment, Xiao Chen's cell phone suddenly rang, and the sharp ringtone instantly broke the silence in the car. He took out his cell phone and saw the words "Zhang San" flashing on the screen. His heart sank suddenly, and an ominous premonition came to his mind.

"Master Xiao!" Zhang San's voice was hurried and a little angry on the other end of the phone, "The old fox Haidong Taifu is really not a good person!" Xiao Chen's eyes suddenly became as sharp as an eagle. He sat up straight and listened quietly.

"In order to solve the problem of raw material supply, Mr. Su planned to use the ancestral treasure to ask him for help. Unexpectedly, that guy agreed in person, but changed his attitude as soon as he got the thing! Not only did he not intend to help solve the problem, he also sent people to detain Mr. Su!" Zhang San became more and more excited as he spoke, and his voice trembled a little.

"Our people wanted to rescue President Su, but that old man was too powerful. We were no match for him and were beaten to pieces!" Zhang San's tone was full of reluctance and regret. "I didn't expect him to be so strong. I'm afraid he is one of the backers of the Amei Group!"

Xiao Chen's face instantly darkened terribly. He held the phone tightly, his knuckles turned white due to the force, and the joints were slightly raised. The betrayal and bullying behavior of the Haidong Taifu completely ignited the anger in his heart. He would never allow the people around him to be bullied like this, especially Mr. Su who was in trouble because of the company's affairs.

"Give me the coordinates!" His voice was low and cold, as if squeezed out from between his teeth, carrying with it an endless chill that made people shudder.

Zhang San did not dare to delay for a moment and quickly sent Sophie's location coordinates via text message. When Xiao Chen received the text message, he glanced at it like lightning, and a trace of determination flashed in his eyes. The next second, his aura suddenly changed, and the whole person seemed to turn into an illusory light and shadow, and instantly disappeared in the car.

This happened so suddenly that Cheng Tianan only saw a flash of white light before his eyes, and then Xiao Chen disappeared. He was so scared that his hands shook violently, and the steering wheel instantly lost control, and the car rushed towards the big tree beside the road like a wild horse.

Cheng Tianan's eyes widened in horror, his heart beating wildly in his chest, as if it was about to burst through his chest. He subconsciously stepped on the brakes hard, the tires rubbed against the ground violently, making a sharp and piercing sound, and the car stopped just a few centimeters away from the tree.

Cheng Tianan was breathing heavily, his forehead was covered with beads of sweat, and his back was already soaked with sweat.

He looked at the passenger seat with lingering fear. It was empty, as if everything that had just happened was just an illusion. "Is this Mr. Xiao a man or a god?" He murmured to himself, his voice full of shock and awe. There was still some fear in his eyes as he looked at the empty seat.

At this time, the stars in the night sky are still twinkling and the city lights are bright and brilliant, but no one knows that a thrilling rescue operation is about to begin in this night.

Xiao Chen was running at his fastest speed towards the place where Sophie was imprisoned. His figure gradually blurred in the night, but he seemed to have endless power to tear open a hole in the darkness. …

Night has fallen, as thick as ink that cannot be dissolved, weighing heavily on every inch of land in East City. In the most luxurious villa area in East City, a Gothic-style villa stands quietly, like a dormant giant beast.

The ivy on the outer wall of the villa climbs freely in the darkness, like countless twisted hands. Under the caress of the moonlight, it casts layers of strange shadows, surrounding the villa, adding a bit of mystery and gloom.

In the villa, the warm yellow light was swaying freely, but it could not dispel the depression and silence that permeated the air. In the hall, Cai Lin, the man who was honored as "Haidong Taifu", stood there in a well-tailored black robe, like a cold sculpture.

His facial lines were stern, as if they were cut by a knife or an axe. His eyes were like twinkling stars in the cold night, revealing a bone-chilling coldness and indifference. He looked down at the angry Sophie, with a hint of mocking smile on his lips. His voice was low and cold, as if it was wrapped in a thousand years of frost, and it echoed slowly in the empty hall:
"Don't blame me for being decisive. If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for being too special. Only when you cooperate with the treasures passed down from generation to generation in your family can you unlock the key to the endless secrets. So, from today on, you can only stay here and can't go anywhere else."

"Cai Lin!" Sophie's whole body was shaking uncontrollably. Her anger was like a surging tide, completely drowning her. Her face turned livid due to her rage, just like the gloomy sky before a storm. Her almond-shaped eyes were wide open, burning with rage. It was anger at betrayal, grief at the innocent death, and an unyielding resistance to the ugly behavior before her eyes.

"I have always respected you as a respected senior, and I was hoping that you could lend me a hand and help me solve the company's urgent needs. But I never expected that you would be so shameless and cruel! Not only did you not help me solve the problem of raw material supply, you also tried to take away my family's heirloom, imprisoned me here, and cruelly slaughtered these innocent lives! You are so reckless, aren't you afraid that the law of nature will prevail, and retribution will not be missed?"

Her voice was sharp and trembling, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between her teeth, filled with deep anger and despair. It was the most powerful cry of a weak woman in the face of power and evil.

Behind Sophie, several corpses were lying in a mess on the cold ground. Bright red blood was oozing out from their wounds, spreading on the ground and gathering into shocking pools of blood.

These are all warriors from the God of War Alliance. In order to protect Sophie and rescue her from this dangerous place, they risked their lives and fought a thrilling life-and-death battle with Cai Lin and his minions.

However, they were outnumbered and unfortunately killed. Looking at these people who died bravely for her, Sophie's anger was like raging magma, ready to erupt at any time; the guilt was like a heavy burden, pressing her so hard that she could hardly breathe.

Her hands were tightly clenched into fists, her nails dug deep into her palms, and the glaring blood slowly dripped down her fingers, but she didn't feel the pain at all, her heart and eyes were filled with endless grief and self-blame. (End of this chapter)
