Chapter 916


    Shinnie was dazzled by the stunning scenery and she took it all in, dreamily.


    As they quietly took in their surroundings, they were jolted out of their daze by a shrill cry.


    The two of them turned towards the source of the sound.


    "What''s going on?" Fade asked.


    Shinnie said, "That''s where Roy is. Brother Chen, let''s have a look."


    "Yes!" Fade nodded.


    Then, the two of them headed towards the source of the sound.


    Closing the short distance between them, Fade and Shinnie swiftly arrived at the scene.


    Roy was apanied by two bodyguards, and was quarreling with two middle-aged men in their


    forties. Their voices were gruff and they seemed to be dressed like farmers.


    The two bodyguards were holding the farmers off while Roy shouted, "I''ve told you that you cannot


    pass! Are you deaf?"


    Undeterred, the farmers continued arguing stubbornly with Roy.


    "Why am I not allowed to pass? Do you own this mountain?"


    "We need to work and you''re dying us. Are you going topensate us for dying our


    ie?"


    Roy was about to refute angrily when Shinnie rushed over and asked, "Roy, what''s wrong? What


    happened?"


    Shinnie''s current status in the Sun family was very high. Furthermore, she was apanied by


    Fade. Roy paled, nodding at Shinnie and Fade as he pointed at the two farmers and said, "They are


    going over there to chop firewood and collect weeds as kindling. Shinnie, you know that grandma is


    over there. If they were to pass through, they would definitely be disturbing her silence. That''s why I


    stopped them."


    Upon hearing this, the two farmers grew even more furious. Their faces flushed red as they began


    causing a scene again.


    "What are you talking about? If your grandma is there, then are we not allowed to work? On what


    grounds?"


    Flustered with anger, Roy uttered, "On the grounds that we are from the Sun family, the Sun family


    in Long City, do you understand?"


    The two farmers were stunned, but then they shook their heads and insisted, "We don''t know


    anything about the Sun family. Moreover, even if you are from Long City, you have no right to stop


    us from our work. Get out of the way now. Otherwise, we are not going to hold back."


    The two farmers were intending to rush right through them. Roy quickly waved his hand, signaling


    the two bodyguards to stop them.


    Seeing that conflict was about to break out, Shinnie quickly stopped him and said, "Roy, no."


    After stopping the bodyguards, Shinnie stepped forward and said to the two farmers, "Gentlemen,


    I''m really sorry. Today is the anniversary of my grandfather''s death. My grandmother is cleaning his


    tomb here. She would like a moment of peace to be with him. She does not wish to be disturbed.


    That''s why Roy here stopped you from going any further."

    "We''ll only be less than half an hour. Could you please give us a moment?" Shinnie asked politely.


    However, they wouldn''t budge.


    "I can''t care less if it''s your grandfather''s death anniversary or your father''s death anniversary. What


    does it have to do with us?"


    "That''s right. What kind of logic is this? Are we supposed to wait for you to finish? We insist on


    passing through. Try to stop us if you dare."


    As they were about to rush through, Shinnie''s expression darkened. She was at a loss.


    Roy was about to burst into anger, and he signaled for the bodyguards to make their move.


    However, Fade stepped in between the two parties. He held off both Shinnie and Roy as he said to


    the two farmers, "Gentlemen, it is truly our fault that we have dyed your work."


    "However, the dead are to be respected. She onlyes here once a year to visit her other half.


    Please be considerate."


    "Why..." They struggled stubbornly and were about to refute Fade.


    Before they finished, Fade produced two stacks of notes and handed them over to the men,


    "Gentlemen, we are very sorry for getting in the way of your work. Please ept this 2,000 yuan as


    a token of our apology."


    Seeing the two stacks of notes, their eyes lit up and they looked pleased.


    Seeing how efficiently Fade handled the matter, Shinnie and Roy sighed, and they were


    speechless. They really had to hand it to Fade, as he knew how to deal with different types of


    people through experience.


    One of the farmers, Hodge, couldn''t hold back and started reaching out for the money in Fade''s


    hand.


    The other farmer, Sam, however, nudged him and shot him a look, as he whispered, "Don''t forget


    why we are here."


    Upon hearing that, Hodge''s trembled and withdrew his hand.


    Sam red at Fade and said, "You rich people think that you can solve everything with bribery. We


    don''t want your money. Today, we will pass through and you cannot stop us."


    As they spoke, the two tried their best to break through.


    Seeing this, Fade was at a loss. After all, a thousand yuan each was definitely not a small amount


    for them. They can definitely afford a lot of firewood with a thousand yuan!


    They refused the money and insisted on collecting the materials themselves. It sounded too strange


    to betrue.


    Just as Fade mulled over the situation, Roy took out yet another stack of notes and said to the two,


    "Two thousand more, four thousand yuan in total. Are you satisfied now?"


    Hodge''s eyes were glued to the stacks of notes ced before them... However, Sam stood his


    ground and red at Fade, saying, "I said, we don''t want your stinky money. Although we are


    farmers and we are poor, we still have dignity. We must


    pass through regardless."


    After that, the two of them tried to rush through the group again.


    Roy quickly waved the bodyguards over.


    This time, the two farmers were not hesitant, as they drew their sickles and hatchets and rushed


    over fiercely.


    One of them even rushed towards Shinnie, which scared her out of her wits. She was rooted to the


    spot in fear.


    Fade''s expression hardened as he pulled Shinnie back in a sh, narrowly avoiding the sickle which


    came shing down.


    Fade shouted at them in a rage, "You raised your weapons against us, you have gone too far!"


    "Us? Too far? You''re the one who has gone too far for stopping us in the first ce!" Sam shouted


    as he rushed over, sickle in hand.


    Watching his onught, Fade snorted. He was tired of arguing. Instead, he kicked Sam squarely in


    the chest and sent him flying. The sickle left his hand as it spun in the air,nding in the pine forest


    behind them.


    Hodge was shocked at what he just witnessed. He froze on the spot, gripping his hatchet firmly, not


    daring to advance.


    Fade shouted icily, "Get out of here!"


    Hodge threw the hatchet away immediately, and helped Sam up as they fled down the mountain


    frantically.
