Kapitel 258: Chapter 258 The Humiliated Young Master and the Unexpected Turn of Events
The yacht slowly sailed away from the coast. Ye Yongsheng entered the cabin and, to be safe, also dragged Zhao Yanan inside, placing her on the sofa in front of him. Holding the urn, he mumbled to his son, his expression filled with deep sorrow.
Chu Yuxuan leaned against the railing, surrounded by a group of bodyguards. He turned his head, looking through the window at Zhao Yanan, his eyes filled with tenderness as he mouthed, "Don't be afraid." Occasionally, he glanced back at the shore.
Guilt was all that remained in Zhao Yanan's eyes, tears falling endlessly as if they were free. In no time, the yacht had drifted a kilometer from the shore. Chu Yuxuan glanced toward the shore again, gently biting his lip, his eyes reflecting a trace of barely noticeable concern. As the yacht sailed further from the shore, the bodyguards gradually relaxed, cracking jokes and envisioning a bright future in Thailand. Some mocked Chu Yuxuan, while others cast lewd glances at Zhao Yanan in the cabin.
Being Jiang City's top beauty, all they could do was sneak glances at her. No one dared to look too long, especially with Ye Yongsheng sitting right behind her. If he saw them eyeing his "future daughter-in-law" indecently, they would surely get slapped.
Only two bodyguards stood at either side of the boat, scanning the distant sea with binoculars. Even these two seemed a bit distracted, knowing that with Chu Yuxuan in their hands, there wasn't much Chu Zhiqing could do, even if he pursued them.
As the sun set, casting the sky in hues of red, smoke rose from the shore, painting a picture of desolate tranquility. Chu Yuxuan gazed at the scene, sighed softly, and struggled to move as if trying to stand up.
The bodyguards noticed his movements but made no effort to intervene, merely watching him with amusement. His hands and feet were tightly bound with fishing wire, and even if he had a knife, it would take him a long time to cut free.
With his hands tied behind his back and his feet firmly bound, Chu Yuxuan wriggled like a worm, inching toward the cabin door. After a long struggle, he managed to kneel, blood still dripping from his head. Catching his breath, he shouted, "Ye! I have something to ask of you!"
Ye Yongsheng glanced at him but remained silent, smoking his cigarette.
Chu Yuxuan continued to shout, "Chairman Ye! I have a request!" He repeated himself several times.
Ye Yongsheng smacked his lips, grabbed a stick, and walked out of the cabin, striking Chu Yuxuan hard on the shoulder. "You're so annoying!"
The blow was heavy, and Chu Yuxuan's body lurched, his head slamming into the railing. Dazed, his left arm throbbed in pain. After catching his breath, Chu Yuxuan kneeled, facing the group. His hands rested limply on his heels as he looked at Ye Yongsheng with a pleading expression. "Chairman Ye, I know the feud between you and our Chu family is deep. I know I won't survive... But my wife has nothing to do with the enmity between our families. Please let her go. I'll do anything you ask. This is the first time in my life that I've ever begged someone."
Zhao Yanan shook her head frantically, as if to say, "If you die, I won't live either."
Ye Yongsheng paused, then laughed loudly, "You still haven't figured out why I took this girl? Do you think I'm like your father, unable to resist a pretty woman? Let me tell you, this girl is for my son!"
Chu Yuxuan was initially stunned, then smirked bitterly. "I see... You're going to sacrifice her? You're going to be cursed for this!"
Ye Yongsheng sneered, "I've done plenty of cursed things!"
Chu Yuxuan gritted his teeth, glaring at Ye Yongsheng for a moment before closing his eyes in resignation. "Fine. I accept my fate... Yanan, I'm sorry. I couldn't protect you."
Zhao Yanan sobbed, shaking her head, her words lost in her crying.
Ye Yongsheng chuckled, "You're just like your father, a romantic, but not as cold-hearted as him! If it were your father, he wouldn't care about his woman at all."
With that, he turned to return to the cabin.
"Ye," Chu Yuxuan called out. "Give me a cigarette. I only have this one vice, and I want one last smoke before I die."
Ye Yongsheng knew of Chu Yuxuan's heavy smoking habit, as it had been criticized by the media. However, he wasn't feeling generous. With a mocking smile, he took a step forward and said, "Beg me."
Chu Yuxuan pressed his tongue against his cheek, his eyes filled with resentment, but he said nothing.
Ye Yongsheng laughed, then pulled out his phone to send a video to Chu Zhiqing. When the video connected, the first thing Chu Zhiqing saw was his bloodied son, causing his face to tighten in a frown.
"Surprised, old Chu? Hahaha..."
Though Chu Zhiqing had faced many crises in his life, he couldn't help but feel a surge of panic now. He had just received word from Chu Haoran that Chu Yuxuan had gone after Ye Yongsheng, but now...
Ye Yongsheng's real purpose for sending the video was not just a warning, but to humiliate him. "Young Master Chu, didn't you want a cigarette? Come on, beg me, and I'll give you one!"
Chu Yuxuan sat on the ground, tucking his feet under him, glaring coldly at Ye Yongsheng. "Go to hell."
Ye Yongsheng snorted and pointed at Zhao Yanan. "Shall I use her to make you beg?"
Chu Yuxuan clenched his teeth, kneeling properly. "Ye, I'm begging you..."
Ye Yongsheng taunted, "Beg me for what? Speak up! Your father can't hear you!"
Chu Zhiqing crushed the teacup in his hand, blood flowing from his palm, but he remained silent.
"I'm begging you, don't touch her!"
"Hahaha... Wrong! Try again. You should say, 'Uncle Ye, please give me a cigarette!'"
Perhaps due to the blood loss, Chu Yuxuan appeared increasingly weary, his head nodding drowsily as his pale lips moved. "Uncle Ye, please give me a cigarette."
Zhao Yanan's eyes were red. Her husband, who had always bullied others, had never been so humiliated.
Satisfied, Ye Yongsheng removed the nearly finished cigarette from his mouth and stuffed it into Chu Yuxuan's. Laughing loudly, he headed back to the cabin, warning Chu Zhiqing, "Old Chu, don't do anything reckless. I'm on high alert. If anything spooks me, I might have to stab your son a few times just to calm my nerves. Hahaha..."
Chu Yuxuan glared at his retreating figure and took a deep drag of the cigarette.
Just then, a bodyguard pointed toward the shore. "Fire! There's a lot of smoke!"
Everyone turned to look. Chu Yuxuan glanced toward the shore as well, then quietly let the cigarette drop to the ground.
While the bodyguards were distracted by the fire, one of them glanced back to see Chu Yuxuan still kneeling. Laughing, he walked over to stand before him, arms crossed, savoring the sight of the young master on his knees. He was about to mock him when suddenly, he smelled something like gunpowder.
Before he could react, a flash of fire appeared behind Chu Yuxuan, as if something had been ignited. The bodyguard's eyes widened, and as he reached for his gun, Chu Yuxuan freed his hands, grabbed the bodyguard's gun, and shot him in the stomach. Rolling forward, he dove into the cabin, shooting at the other bodyguards as he tackled Zhao Yanan to the ground.
At the same time, hearing the gunshots, Ye Yongsheng turned toward the cabin. As he instinctively reached for his gun, a bullet shattered the window, piercing his temple and blowing his head apart.
