Chapter 257: Chapter 257 Thrown out_1 Chapter 257: Chapter 257 Thrown out_1 Just as he was about to speak again, he suddenly found himself unable to make a sound. His neck hurt as if it was about to snap, and a suffocating sensation overwheld him. His dignity was nowhere in sight, and his eyes rolled back.
Huo Beijiang held Qiao Jingxuan’s neck as if clutching a chicken, effortlessly hoisting him up.
“Let go… you let go…” Qiao Jingxuan fruitlessly struggled mid-air, unable to free himself from Huo Beijiang’s grip.
Huo Beijiang’s handso face was etched with coldness, his eyebrows knitted together in a stark frown, and his deep eyes were filled with nace. His thin lips, tight and not laughing, made even Jiang Nanfei shiver against her will.
She had seen Huo Beijiang’s chilling deanor in a past life. His apathy seed to radiate from his very bones. She was once used by Huo Jinlan, who purposely allowed her to see his military-intelligence video. She was an eyewitness to Huo Beijiang rescuing hostages and manually snapping a villain’s neck.
Speedy, ruthless, accurate… within seconds, he claid the villain’s life.
At that ti, his eyes remained devoid of any emotions, continuously cold as stonewalls, like an emotionless machine. From then on, she developed an extre fear of Huo Beijiang, trembling uncontrollably every ti she saw him.
The end of the video showed him suddenly looking up at the cara. Those eyes were terrifying, devoid of emotion like a cold-blooded animal, like a demon from the abyss.
And so, she had many lingering nightmares.
Her disdain for Huo Beijiang grew even more.
At this mont, his deanor mirrored his past self perfectly, triggering mories from the depths of Nan Fei’s mind that had long been forgotten.
She didn’t know why, but she couldn’t control the trembling of her body.
She knew very well that this was wrong, that her foolishness had caused all this trouble.
She couldn’t, like in her past life, shift all the bla onto innocent people, letting herself escape the reproach of her conscience.
“Let go! Huo Beijiang, you let go!” Teacher Liu was scared out of her wits, “Bei Jiang, you must let him down now, don’t scare people!”
Gongxi Yunqi tightly pursed his lips, his expression calm as he watched Huo Beijiang, then shifted his gaze to Nan Fei. A glimr of anticipation and excitent flashed through his deep eyes.
He thought he lost his chance.
Apparently, he didn’t.
“Huo Beijiang, let go!” Nan Fei finally managed to control her inappropriate emotions, her eyes, clear as autumn, staring at him intently.
“This man… doesn’t deserve to dirty your hands.”
Huo Beijiang narrowed his eyes dangerously, keenly alert to the subtle changes in his wife’s deanor. His eyebrows furrowed and relaxed, then he threw Qiao Jingxuan out of the room like a piece of garbage, onto the corridor floor.
A loud bang echoed.
Qiao Jingxuan scread from where he’d landed on the floor, rolling about in agony.
The others quickly followed out to inspect. Luckily, they were at a hospital and quickly called for a doctor to see if he was injured.
Lu Qingtian was following the commotion with an admiring look on his face, while He Shasha felt she was genuinely lucky to catch such an entertaining scene.
After throwing Qiao Jingxuan away, Huo Beijiang paid him no mind and returned to his room. He saw his wife sitting on the bed, all curled up, trembling uncontrollably.
The coldness in his eyes suddenly faded. He tried to smile, but found he couldn’t. Frustration welled up within him, causing him to punch the wall once again.
He had been so painstakingly careful around his wife, afraid of her being bullied, afraid of scaring her.
From the beginning, she had been scared of him, and he knew that.
That’s why he always liked to tease her, attempting to gradually dissolve the fear and helplessness harbored in her heart.
