Chapter 132: The Clueless Runaway Mom (Part 12)

After Grandpa Sun expressed his approval, the meticulously crafted schemes targeting those three families were set into motion like a lit powder keg, swiftly put into practice.

The heads of these three families watched helplessly as their companies they’d poured years into building seemed trapped in an inescapable nightmare, drowning in chaos and unable to keep up due to endless crises.

They knew this must be the work of one of the Big Four Families—only they could simultaneously target all three of them with such overwhelming force that they couldn’t even react in time. But which family was it?

Frantically, they pulled out all the stops, desperately seeking even the faintest whisper of a clue, hoping to devise some effective countermeasures to salvage their businesses from ruin.

Finally, after exhausting every ounce of their accumulated influence, they barely managed to obtain a vague tip.

It turned out that their beloved daughters had offended the Sun family’s heiress, Sun Yinuo, while studying at Kaiyuan Academy.

The three family heads were puzzled—hadn’t their daughters been close friends with Sun Yinuo? They had often played together, visited each other’s homes, and even been to the Sun family’s estate multiple times. How could they have possibly offended her?

Later, they learned the truth: their daughters had been smiling to her face while stabbing her in the back, speaking ill of Sun Yinuo behind her back, only to be caught.

Upon hearing this, they panicked and scrambled to find a go-between, begging them to mediate on their behalf. They even offered to spare no expense for the Sun family’s forgiveness.

Yet, to their despair, even the go-between could do nothing, shaking their head helplessly. "I’m truly sorry, but the Sun family’s stance is unshakable. They don’t want anything from you—their only demand is to see your three families bankrupted completely, as a warning to anyone who dares disrespect their heiress!"

Cornered and with no other options, the three families abandoned pleas for mercy and instead banded together, pooling their resources in a desperate attempt to resist this impending doom, hoping to find even the slimmest chance of survival.

But fate was against them. The Sun family’s bankruptcy plan was airtight, leaving the three families powerless to resist, no matter how hard they fought.

Within mere days, the once-thriving companies collapsed like houses of cards, leaving nothing but rubble and bitter regret.

During this time, Xiao Yi, Er Er, and Shan Shan lived a waking nightmare. Being beaten at school was now the mildest of their problems.

They endured endless humiliation and torment, body and soul. The pain didn’t just come from those they had previously offended seeking revenge—many others, eager to suck up to the Sun family, also took brutal action against them.

They tried to fight back, but they were outnumbered—unable to win in fights or arguments. They planned to return home and ask their parents to intervene.

But before they could even voice their grievances, their parents, frantic with worry, brought them home—only to unleash a brutal, unrelenting beating upon them.

After the beating, their parents coldly informed them of the company’s dire situation, blaming them for daring to offend the Sun Group’s heiress. Furious, they cut off all financial support, froze their cards, and mercilessly sent them back to school.

To their parents, the more their daughters were beaten at school, the better—their lives mattered little as long as it appeased Sun Yinuo’s anger. If the beatings somehow moved her to pity and forgiveness, even better!

Later, after their family businesses went bankrupt and they were expelled from school, they returned home—only to find their house sold, forcing the entire family to cram into a tiny apartment.

Yet even then, their misery didn’t end. They were frequently subjected to violence from their own relatives, who harbored deep resentment toward them.

Their parents, unable to endure their fallen status, decided to sell them off like commodities to new-money upstarts they would’ve once sneered at, just to maintain their champagne-and-caviar lifestyles.

When Li Yanyan heard of the three companies’ bankruptcies, she brushed it off without a second thought and threw herself into managing the Sun Group’s affairs.

Meanwhile, the tragic downfall of Xiao Yi, Er Er, and Shan Shan’s families gave their classmates a stark reminder of the Sun family’s godlike influence.

Many lamented the sheer boneheaded move of the three girls—fumbling a golden ticket. So many struggled to even get close to the Sun heiress, yet they had foolishly thrown it all away!

Sun Yimo, too, heard about these events. What baffled him was how coldly his mother now treated him, while doting on his sister. This sudden shift left him completely in the dark.

Even Sun Yinuo had grown distant, often making barbed comments. She frequently visited their grandfather, who now couldn’t stop singing her praises.

Slowly, Sun Yimo began sensing the change in the air—but he had no idea why.

Frustrated, he often sought solace in the academy’s rooftop hideout. Standing high above, the breeze seemed to carry away his worries.

After calming down, he would nap in a quiet corner—this rooftop had been his personal kingdom since childhood. Everyone at Kaiyuan knew this, so no one disturbed him—not even the K4 clique.

But today, when he woke up, he was startled to find a girl there. She sat on his small couch, weeping softly, unable to stop, and muttering under her breath.
