Jiang Qing argued cunningly, "I heard so noise from the backstage rest area and followed it. I saw Yuhan coming out, and then Zhou Yan slipped in quietly. Soon after, indescribable sounds ca from inside. I knew you two were..."
"Drugged? What nonsense! It’s obvious you two couldn’t control yourselves. Fearing Yuhan would pursue the matter, you used as a scapegoat, hoping to kill two birds with one stone with your divisive sche! Yuhan has already divorced you. Why would I have any reason to let you sleep with a popular, money-grubbing pretty boy and cause myself trouble?"
Her voice grew softer as she spoke, watching Si Yuhuan’s face gradually darken. A triumphant glint flickered in the depths of her eyes.
Kill Jian Xi! Today, I must use Si Yuhuan’s hand to thoroughly kill Jian Xi!
As expected, Si Yuhuan’s hand imdiately tightened around Jian Xi’s neck. "So you just can’t control yourself around Zhou Yan, can you?"
The scarf around her neck was ripped off, exposing clear kiss marks.
Below them were purplish, hand-shaped bruises, evidence of how "wild" the two had apparently been in the restroom yesterday.
Si Yuhuan truly wished he could twist the neck before him until it broke.
The man’s slender fingers tightened.
Behind them, Jiang Qing tensed with all her might, as if she were the one doing it, urging him to strangle Jian Xi. As long as Jian Xi is dead, there will be no obstacles in my path to becoming Mrs. Si.
Jian Xi was no longer the love-struck fool she once was. She forcefully pushed Si Yuhuan away and threw the blood test report at him. It detailed that she had been drugged.
Si Yuhuan’s pupils constricted when he saw the diagnosis of illegal drug intake.
She really was drugged! And I almost didn’t believe her. I nearly strangled her to death, all because I listened to Jiang Qing.
Jian Xi stared at Si Yuhuan with disappointnt. "You always do this. You only ever listen to Jiang Qing."
A pang of guilt tightened Si Yuhuan’s chest, threatening to overflow.
Jian Xi accurately perceived his emotional shift and understood.
"Yuhan, it really wasn’t !" Jiang Qing inwardly cursed. I forgot Jian Xi is a lawyer, with an uncanny ability to handle the finest details. Being drugged is a fact. Her mind raced.
"There must be soone else involved! It has nothing to do with ," she adamantly denied.
Just then, Yan Qing appeared, dragging Xiang Yao with him. "Boss, this woman was caught sneaking around by our n. She hired soone to drug Madam and nearly killed her."
Xiang Yao roared desperately, "Jian Xi, you and Wan Yu ruined ! So what if I drugged you to get a little payback?"
She pointed at Si Yuhuan, hurling accusations. "You promised ngng you’d marry her, but then you started fooling around with this woman! Look at ngng now! Her reputation is ruined, and she hasn’t even beco Mrs. Si. Countless people are lining up to laugh at her! Does being the richest man in the world an you can do whatever you want and shield the main culprit?"
Vindictiveness flashed in Xiang Yao’s eyes. "Jiang Qing, you brought this on yourself! Falling for a man you shouldn’t have!"
Jiang Qing imdiately interjected, weeping, "Yaoyao, stop it! I love Yuhan, I can’t control myself. This is all my fault; it has nothing to do with him."
Si Yuhuan frowned deeply. I can’t take my anger out on soone who was kind to Grandpa and . "ngng, she brought this on herself. Yan Qing, take her to the police. I don’t want to see her again."
His words implied that Xiang Yao’s only future was to rot in jail.
It seed as if he was punishing Xiang Yao on Jian Xi’s behalf, yet it felt more like he was venting his own frustration.
CLAP! CLAP! CLAP!
Jian Xi couldn’t help but applaud. "Impressive. Such a splendid drama."
Jiang Qing hasn’t disappointed. She can be cornered, on the brink of death, and still find a way out, always finding so many fools to use as her pawns. No wonder she’s so brazenly wicked!
Si Yuhuan grabbed Jian Xi’s hand, wanting to drag her to the hospital for an examination.
I can’t possibly go. What if they discover my pregnancy?
"My body is my own concern; it has nothing to do with you. The drama is over. Goodbye, Director Si."
Jiang Qing put on a show of concern. "I’ll see Jian Xi out."
As Jian Xi opened her car door, Jiang Qing pressed her hand on the car lock. "I’ve told you before, don’t oppose . Otherwise, you’ll suffer the consequences."
"The sa goes for you," Jian Xi smirked, showing no sign of defeat.
Jiang Qing clenched her teeth in hatred. "Just wait! I will beco Mrs. Si one day!"
"I eagerly await that day. Do try your best."
Jiang Qing was infuriated to the point of madness. "Jian Xi, without evidence, you can’t do anything to ! Yuhan won’t do anything to . I’m his lifesaver, his future woman, the wife of the richest man!"
"But he despises you."
Jian Xi shrugged, got into her car, stepped on the gas, and sped off down the street.
That bitch! Her sudden appearance and all that commotion nearly got killed! Fortunately, Xiang Yao was there to take the bla. Jiang Qing thought, fuming.
She turned to see a flashy, custom-made sports car chasing after Jian Xi. "Yuhan! Si Yuhuan! You’re not allowed to go!"
He abandoned again to chase after Jian Xi!
I wish I could kill them all! Why do they treat this way?!
Wan Yu was wondering the sa thing.
Over the phone, Wan Yu pressed, "Why didn’t you publicly expose all of Jiang Qing’s evil deeds? And why did you let Si Yuhuan witness such a dramatic play?"
"Yu Yu, do you know the ga of cat and mouse?" Jian Xi countered.
"Play first, then kill?" Wan Yu understood instantly. A chill ran down her spine, making her shiver.
"Exactly. I need to let her bask in her success first. Then, at the peak of her triumph, I’ll break her wings completely."
In my past life, I experienced such loathing and bitterness. It’s only fair that Jiang Qing tastes every bit of it too.
「Fuyuan Official Residence.」
Just as Jian Xi was about to push the door open, a figure behind her slipped in faster.
"Director Si, you really have a peculiar fondness for breaking into other people’s hos."
Not surprised by his arrival, Jian Xi poured herself a glass of water and drank it calmly.
I’m covered in so many hidden injuries. The doctor said if the children hadn’t been so resilient, this ti they almost...
At that thought, a cold glint flashed in Jian Xi’s eyes. "You should be accompanying your frightened beloved. Coming to won’t lead to anything good for you."
"Jian Xi, co with for a check-up," Si Yuhuan said coldly. "I will make Xiang Yao pay the price she deserves."
Jian Xi shook off his hand. "Such a huge conspiracy? Could soone as dim-witted as Xiang Yao pull that off on her own?"
She sneered, her eyes filled with profound disappointnt.
There was a ti I desperately wished Si Yuhuan would show even a little concern, even if it was fake. But now that he actually seems to care, I find I don’t need it. In fact, it’s disgusting.
Si Yuhuan’s strong fra quivered slightly. "ngng isn’t like that. She..."
"If I told you she personally led people to try and kill , would you believe ?"
His pupils contracted sharply. Impossible! he instinctively wanted to retort.
Jian Xi pushed him away with a cold laugh. "You have to choose, Director Si. It’s an ultimatum; you can’t have it all."
Her smile was casual as she tilted her head, revealing a row of neat white teeth. "I never knew Director Si enjoyed this kind of arrangent—keeping the main flag flying at ho while colorful flags flutter outside?"
The unobtainable always stirs commotion.
