Celestial Night Emperor

Chapter 251: Chapter 251: I Keep My Promises

Sun Haodong and his family were wailing, crying for their mothers and fathers.

After a long while, they finally crawled out, trembling as they huddled together.

Sun Haodong’s wife suddenly remembered something and shrieked, ”You! Qin! Since you’re such a big shot, you should keep your promises! You—you told Ah Xue you wouldn’t lay a hand on us again!”

Qin Tianxuan had indeed said those words.

He nodded at once. ”I am a man who always keeps his promises!”

Wutian and Chen Haobei came forward and called off the secretary’s men.

”I promised Ah Xue that I would no longer raise a hand to you, nor would I let my men beat you!” Qin Tianxuan said coldly. ”But that comes with one condition: Ah Xue must sever all ties with your Sun Family!”

Sun Haodong, still trembling on the ground, stammered, ”We’ll... we’ll sever all ties with Xia Xueqing. We’ll n-never bother her again!”

Qin Tianxuan nodded. ”Excellent.”

Qin Tianxuan, intending to leave this disgusting place, turned with Wutian and Chen Haobei.

But then, choosing the worst possible moment, Sun Haodong’s wife muttered, ”We raised that damn girl for so many years for nothing. What about all the money we spent?”

Qin Tianxuan stopped in his tracks.

He turned and faced the Sun Family. ”How much money did you spend on Ah Xue? I will repay you ten thousand times over!”

As Qin Tianxuan spoke, the corners of his mouth curled into a smile.

Anyone familiar with him knew this was a sign of true killing intent.

Ten thousand times?!

The Sun Family exchanged a look, the promise making their heads spin.

”Honey,” his wife whispered, ”he might be powerful, but he’s also a complete idiot. ’Keeping promises’... He just said in front of everyone that he’d pay us back ten thousandfold, didn’t he?”

Sun Haodong hesitated. ”But does he even have that much money?”

”Are you an idiot? I overheard them just now, and I figured it out. That Celestial Brocade Financial Group... I think it’s his!”

The two Sun sons’ eyes nearly popped out of their heads.

Their daughter’s breathing grew ragged. ”How much did we spend on Xia Xueqing? We have to calculate it down to the last cent!”

The family began to plot and calculate.

It wasn’t that they weren’t afraid of what had just happened, but the thought of a massive payday made it impossible to contain their greed.

They even included the money Ah Xue used for their daily groceries.

Finally, Sun Haodong turned back around, trembling and holding a tattered piece of paper.

He stammered, ”Th-this is it. We’ve calculated it!”

Qin Tianxuan had been waiting. ”Speak. How much is it?”

Sun Haodong cleared his throat. ”Y-you’ll keep your word, right?”

”Did I not just say? I am a man who always keeps his promises!”

Sun Haodong looked at the crowd. ”You! You all heard him, right? Be my witness! Be witnesses for our Sun Family!”

The expressions on the faces of the onlookers were incredibly strange.

’Is this remarkable Mr. Qin being serious?’

Of course, none of them dared to say a word.

Sun Haodong cleared his throat again. ”The Sun Family raised Xia Xueqing. Her expenses as a child were at least one hundred thousand! Her schooling cost, hmm, another hundred thousand or so. After she grew up, Xia Xueqing never got a job, and she ate and drank at our expense. We’ll just charge for room and board...”

Qin Tianxuan cut him off. ”Just give me a number!”

”It’s at least three hundred thousand... hehe, I’ll give you a round number. Three hundred thousand!”

Qin Tianxuan smiled. ”Done.”

Sun Haodong’s eyes gleamed. ”Hold on, you said you’d repay us ten thousand times over!”

His wife shot to her feet, ignoring the pain in her body. ”That’s right! He said ten thousand times! You all heard him, didn’t you?”

The onlookers frowned, speechless.

’This family is beyond saving!’

Three hundred thousand, multiplied by ten thousand... that was...

The Sun Family couldn’t do the math in their heads. They finally found a calculator, tapping away excitedly.

”Th-Three billion!”

Sun Haodong, his son, and his daughter all trembled.

Just the sight of all those zeros on the calculator made them dizzy.

Everyone in the crowd shook their heads.

’This whole family is full of morons. They’ve all gone completely insane!’

Three billion?

’Impossible!’

But then Qin Tianxuan’s voice rang out, ”Done.”

Huh?!!

’This Mr. Qin has gone mad, too!’

Qin Tianxuan, however, was perfectly calm. ”I only have cash.”

The entire Sun Family shouted in unison, ”Money is money! We’re not afraid of having too much!”

Qin Tianxuan chuckled and nodded to Chen Haobei. ”Get it ready immediately. How long will it take?”

Chen Haobei made a quick estimate. ”If it’s just me, it will take at least twelve hours to gather that much!”

Qin Tianxuan pulled out his phone. ”Get the four main branches of the Silver Alliance and the Prince from the God of Wealth Hall to help. Recalculate. I’m not waiting that long.”

Chen Haobei scratched his head. ”With the Marquis from the God of Wealth Hall helping, plus the local branches of the four Silver Alliance divisions... half an hour should be more than enough!”

”Bring it all here. Pick a room in this villa and dump it inside!”

The members of the Sun Family had already gone mad with joy. They immediately chose an enclosed room—the villa’s basement.

At this, the onlookers were utterly stunned.

”Mr. Qin is really doing it!”

”Three billion? How much space would that even take up?”

The secretary thought for a moment. ”It’d probably fill a whole room!”

That was why the Sun Family chose the basement. It was over thirty square meters, enclosed, and they wouldn’t have to worry about security.

The family had already cleaned out the room, laid plastic tarps on the floor, and were standing inside, waiting.

By now, the four local Silver Alliance branches were operating at full capacity.

The four heads of the branches personally led the convoy, which consisted of over thirty trucks and their armed escorts.

The convoy arrived outside the Sun Family’s villa, and the trucks began to enter one by one.

Qin Tianxuan checked the time. ”Open them up. Let the Sun Family have a look.”

The truck doors opened, and the Sun Family was instantly blinded by the sight.

”Is it to your satisfaction?” Chen Haobei asked.

”W-we’ll have to touch it to know for sure!” Sun Haodong’s voice trembled, but his eyes were shining with a golden, greedy light.

”No problem. Just wait in the room.”

The Sun Family excitedly rushed into the enclosed room, rubbing their hands in anticipation.

A vicious grin spread across Qin Tianxuan’s face. ”One by one. Send it all in.”

”Yes, sir!”

”Sir, the total weight is over thirty tons! It’s going to be a tight squeeze in this room!”

Qin Tianxuan’s eyes were filled with killing intent. ”How tight?”

The man from the Silver Alliance thought for a moment. ”If we really cram it all in, the volume of cash would still need about ten more square meters of floor space than the room has.”

”Then find a way to make it fit!” Qin Tianxuan repeated, his vicious grin widening.

”Yes, sir!”

As the contents of the fourth truck were being brought in, Sun Haodong’s shouts came from the money-filled room. ”Leave some room for us! It’s getting hard to breathe in here!”

It was more than just hard to breathe—the cash was already about to seal the room shut!

The faces of the onlookers went pale.

They had only ever heard the joke about crushing someone to death with money.

But now, they were witnessing someone being literally buried in money with their own eyes.

They all turned to look at the terrifying man.

Qin Tianxuan stood there, his tone indifferent as he commanded, ”Continue.”
