A Beijing socialite stole my boyfriend; she went crazy after I got married.

"Dad...save me...save..."

Lei Yu's cries grew weaker and weaker, his pupils began to turn white, and his breathing was filled with the gurgling sound of blood foam; he was clearly on the verge of going into shock.

Lei Jin's sliver of hope vanished.

The man in front of me was never a businessman who could be bound by worldly rules; he was a madman who crawled out of a pile of corpses!

"I'll sign!"

Lei Jin couldn't take it anymore. Tears and snot streamed down her face as she scrambled to the coffee table and grabbed a pen.

His hands trembled so badly he could barely hold them, and he signed his name crookedly on the equity transfer and liquidation agreement.

"I signed! Please, please let him go! Xie Jing, please let him go! He's my only son—"

Lei Jin pushed the agreement over while crying.

Xie Jing glanced coldly at the signature on the agreement.

Assistant Wang immediately stepped forward and put the documents away.

Xie Jing then slowly raised his foot.

He didn't even glance at the cripple lying on the ground, but simply wiped the bloodstains on Lei Yu's clean suit with the sole of his leather shoe.

"Drag him out."

"Yes."

The bodyguards swarmed forward.

They lifted up Lei Yu, whose face was covered in blood and who was on the verge of death.

Lei Jin's face turned ashen, and he scrambled out after him, calling out his son's name incoherently.

The other three high-ranking members of the Lei family's collateral branches did not follow.

They stood there, their legs spinning.

Looking at the pool of dark red blood on the ground that hadn't yet congealed, and then at Xie Jing beside him who hadn't even wrinkled his clothes—

A chill seemed to run down my spine and up to my scalp.

The bloody reality before their eyes has shattered all their arrogance and illusions!

"Thank you... Thank you, Chairman!"

One of the older directors, who usually managed several peripheral supply chain companies for the Lei family, could no longer withstand the suffocating pressure.

With a thud, he knelt down abruptly, cold sweat pouring down his forehead.

"You need to investigate this thoroughly! The entire operation of Skyguard overseas was orchestrated by Lei Bin! He's always been close to Lei Jin and his son Lei Yu; none of us knew anything about it—!"

The other two, seeing this, were also terrified and turned pale. They quickly bowed their heads and echoed his words.

"Yes, yes, Chairman Xie! We're just a branch of the family, and we've long been at odds with their branch! We were tricked into coming here this time under the guise of stock dividends!"

"Chairman Xie, we have absolutely no ulterior motives towards Tianyu! If you would be so kind as to relinquish all of the Lei family's remaining overseas logistics licenses and supply chain assets, we are willing to hand them over without hesitation! We will not ask Tianyu for a single penny of compensation!"

Their voices trembled, and they spoke extremely fast, as if afraid that if they were even a second slower, they would have their bones broken.

Besides, everyone has some private property, and as long as Xie Jing is lenient, they can still make a living.

But if he gets angry, that's another story.

Xie Jing didn't even look at them.

He turned slightly to the side, took the wet wipes handed to him by Assistant Wang, and wiped his hands.

"Since you didn't participate, by 9 a.m. tomorrow, you must entrust all your voting rights to Tianyu Risk Control Department."

Upon hearing this, the three men were overjoyed, their eyes gleaming with ecstasy, and they readily agreed.

"No problem! No problem! We'll get on it right away!"

"roll."

The three men were overjoyed and didn't dare to say a word more than necessary. They scrambled out of the suite.

The suite fell silent once more.

The air was still filled with a faint smell of blood and a sense of unease.

Xie Jing turned around, his dark eyes, which had just been filled with brutality and coldness, turned to Jiang Chu, who was sitting on the leather sofa behind him.

The moment his eyes met hers, the violence and murderous intent on his body receded like a tide, replaced by a deep, somewhat tense tenderness.

He strode over, knelt down in front of Jiang Chu, took her small hand in his palm, and asked in a slightly awkward low voice:

"Did I scare you?"

Jiang Chu tilted her head and looked at him.

The man who had just been like a tyrant who controlled life and death was now staring at him like a large dog that had done something wrong and was afraid of being disliked by its owner.

This stark contrast in tension made her heart race.

The bodyguards and assistants left.

Jiang Chu glanced at the door that had closed again.

She reached out and tugged at the man's tie, forcing him to come closer, her lips brushing against his.

"I wasn't scared... but I was a little taken aback by how handsome you are."

Xie Jing raised his eyebrows slightly.

Which part?

He asked with great interest.

Jiang Chu remained silent.

She savored the scene that had just unfolded.

The man's taut back muscles beneath his suit, the long, full silhouette of his thighs, and the cold, ruthless gaze as he looked down at his opponent—

Every detail is delicious.

Looking at the handsome, cold face in front of her, Jiang Chu slightly curved her lips into a smile. "I won't tell you, you guess for yourself."

Xie Jing looked at her thoughtfully, his dark eyes darkening as if he were seriously pondering the question.

"Guess?"

He repeated the word in a low voice, a hint of amusement in his tone.

Then he raised his hand, his fingertips slowly sliding down Jiang Chu's neck, drawing a line along the edge of her dress neckline, finally stopping at her collarbone, applying slight pressure.

Jiang Chu's breathing became slightly sluggish, and her body trembled instinctively.

"...Why is your heart beating so fast?"

The man's voice was deep and magnetic, carrying an air of effortless composure.

He leaned closer, his breath brushing against her ear.

The man's burning lips kissed their way down her earlobe, landing on the carotid artery on the side of her neck, where he gently bit the small patch of delicate skin with his teeth.

"They jump very fast here too."

Jiang Chu's body went limp again after he did that.

She instinctively reached out to push him away, but the man instead grabbed her waist and pulled her even tighter into his arms.

"What should we do?" Xie Jing asked in a low voice, his tone casual and wicked. "I can't guess."

He released her neck, glanced down, and his long, slender hand slowly slid down her waist, caressing the smooth, shapely thigh beneath her skirt.

Finally, he lifted her up and held her steadily in his arms.

Jiang Chu wrapped her arms around his neck and couldn't help but pat him lightly, her cheeks flushed slightly. "No one would believe you couldn't guess."

Xie Jing was about to speak when his tie was suddenly yanked.

"And don't do that again!"

Jiang Chu tightened his grip, "You're at a disadvantage when you're unarmed against an armed person. You yourself said that if you encounter something like this again, just avoid it. The bodyguards are armed, so why not let them handle it?"

Xie Jing remained noncommittal, "Then how am I handsome enough to impress you?"

Jiang Chu: "..."

Jiang Chu punched him lightly. "I'm being serious!"

Xie Jing put one arm around her and pinched her cheek with the other. "I'm being serious with you. That guy is obviously a good-for-nothing. I already hate his family. They're just asking for trouble."
