Hong Kong Nights of Passion

Chapter 90 The strong melon is not sweet
As the two turned around, they were facing Jiang Xiao, who was holding up his phone to answer a call.

His eyes were sinister, and anger almost overflowed from them. Wen Jinian instinctively shielded Wen Jin behind her, her voice trembling, "Uncle..."

"Are you following me?"

Jiang Xiao's clenched fist made a cracking sound, and her knuckles turned white from the force.

Wen Jin wiped away her tears, straightened her back, and stood in front, protecting Wen Jin Nian behind her.

She took a deep breath and looked directly at Jiang Xiao: "Let's get a divorce."

"What did you say?"

Jiang Xiao stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

The woman in front of him, who had been with him for many years, was always gentle and obedient, and he had tacitly allowed her to stay in the Jiang family as a virtuous helper.

The resolute look in her eyes at that moment made him feel dazed.

Over the years, has he loved the person in front of him, or the pale, weak woman in the villa whom he could never have?
"I said let's get a divorce." Wen Jin looked directly at Jiang Xiao, speaking each word clearly.

Jiang Xiao suddenly sneered, her eyes full of contempt: "Wen Jin, you want to divorce me? All these years you've been the Jiang family's wife, eating my food and using my things. What can you do without me? Rely on her?"

He suddenly pointed at Wen Jinian, "With her meager salary?"

Wen Jinnian quietly grasped Wen Jin's cold, trembling hand, offering silent comfort, then stepped forward and said, "Uncle, no matter what happens in the future, I will take good care of Aunt. You don't need to worry about me."

"Great, you've grown wings!"

"I never expected that her usual gentle and weak demeanor was all an act."

Jiang Xiao, on the other hand, admired Wen Jin Nian even more.

This girl has managed to keep her thoughts hidden under his nose for so many years; her shrewdness and patience have truly impressed him.

If we could get her connected with a powerful and wealthy family, it might bring even greater benefits to the Jiang family.

"Uncle, you flatter me." Wen Jin thought that with Chi Yige around, she had become bolder.

Jiang Xiao stepped forward to grab Wen Jin, but Wen Jinian quickly shielded her behind her.

“Go home and talk about it, Wen Jin.” Jiang Xiao’s tone was clearly displeased.

Jiang Xiao grabbed her wrist and tried to leave. In the midst of the struggle, Chi Yige, Li Mingyi, and Jiang Shu strode forward.

"dad."

Jiang Xiao looked up.

Upon seeing who it was, he was taken aback for a moment, then his gaze swept over Jiang Shu, and his pupils suddenly contracted: "What are you doing here?"

Then, noticing the people behind him, he exclaimed in surprise, "Young Master Chi, what are you doing here?"

Chi Yige casually twirled a lighter in his pocket with one hand, and pulled off his black mask to reveal the coldness in his eyes: "President Jiang has a sharp eye; he can recognize me even dressed like this."

A half-smile played on his lips. "Just passing by."

He replied to Jiang Xiao's words.

Caught off guard by outsiders, Jiang Xiao coughed lightly, looking at Jiang Shu with unease.

Jiang Shu quickly explained, "I just finished discussing a collaborative project with Prince Chi, and we had a meal together."

People who are used to dealing with business will quickly put on a smile.

Before he could continue to smooth things over, Chi Yige spoke first: "It seems that President Jiang has not handled this private matter well? Why don't we find a place to sit down and talk? I can be a witness."

It's obvious they want to interfere.

Jiang Xiao's lips twitched, feeling awkward, when Jiang Shu added, "Dad, it's time to settle things between you and Aunt Wen."

After a tense standoff, Jiang Xiao, with a straight face, uttered, "Let's talk back at Kowloon Tong."

His family had lived there for many years, so perhaps things could turn around.

Four cars drove one after another toward the old house, arriving forty minutes later. The servants, sensing the tense atmosphere in the living room, quickly served tea and then quietly withdrew.

"After the divorce, don't interfere in Niannian's affairs anymore," Wen Jin broke the silence first.

"Her household registration is not with the Jiang family either."

Wen Jin added, as an aside, that he wasn't qualified.

This is her only bottom line; she doesn't need money.

Protect Wen Jinnian and never give Jiang Xiao another chance to threaten her.

Wen Jinian's heart skipped a beat, and she looked up at Jiang Xiao.

This was the first time in many years that she dared to look directly into those chilling eyes.

The shadows of the basement had once coiled around her like venomous snakes, but now, with her aunt's love and the support of those behind her, she unconsciously straightened her back.

Even though Jiang Xiao's imposing aura was not angry, it still made her fingertips tremble and her grip on the bag strap tighten.

"Wen Jin, the matter between me and Jiao'er can be explained. We've been together for so many years, it's not like we should get divorced because of her, is it?"

Jiang Xiao frowned, still maintaining the airs of the head of the household.

Ultimately, the reason she was chosen was because she resembled Jiao'er by seven points, came from an ordinary background and was easy to control, and had a gentle and kind personality that could help take care of Jiang Shu.

But the Wen Jin in front of him had a cold and unfamiliar look in his eyes, completely unlike his usual gentle self.

Wen Jin's eyes were red-rimmed, and the affection of the past was gone from her eyes: "That's only one reason. I've never been anyone's shadow."

She took a deep breath, her words sharp as knives: "You arranged my miscarriage back then, didn't you? You added infertility drugs to the Chinese medicine I drank, Jiang Xiao. If you didn't want me to get pregnant, you could have just said so."

These words struck Jiang Xiao like a heavy hammer blow to the heart.

He stood frozen in place, never expecting that this woman, who had always been submissive, would one day dare to question him.

Wen Jin's words struck like a thunderbolt, and Jiang Shu froze, staring at his father in disbelief.

Memories of his mother's death from depression flooded back, and his voice trembled: "So you never loved my mother at all? Was her death related to that woman in the villa?"

"You unfilial son!" Jiang Xiao roared, veins throbbing on his forehead, "How dare you speak to your father like that!"

Jiang Shu gave a self-deprecating twitch at the corner of his mouth. If Chi Yige hadn't been sitting next to him, his father probably would have already picked up a whip.

Chi Yige said lightly, "President Jiang, forced relationships are never sweet."

Jiang Xiao glanced at Chi Yige, who was casually drinking tea beside her, feeling both alarmed and secretly excited.

Can someone with no background really catch his eye?

His eyes darted between the two of them, glancing at them meaningfully, as if he would have to find an opportunity to test the waters later.

So he softened his tone and turned to Wen Jin: "Shall we talk in the study?"

Wen Jin shook her head: "Your white moonlight should want to live in this house more, I'll grant your wish."

Jiang Xiao suppressed her anger: "You need to calm down now."

Wen Jinian was extremely anxious, but Jiang Xiaoming was determined not to give in.

With Chi Yige present today, if the divorce agreement isn't finalized, Jiang Xiao will definitely be even less willing to get a divorce later.

Who is he? A cunning and shrewd businessman.

Especially the way he looked at her and Chi Yige just now, it was clear that something was up.

Wen Jinnian sometimes even wanted to rush over and punch Chi Yige a few times. He was greedy for her power and was just waiting to kill her!
You'd rather people not know you're rich and powerful!

Money really talks!

Chi Yige then slowly spoke up: "President Jiang, shall we go to the study to chat?"
