Regretful Beijing Marriage

"Qin Zhengtao, you deserve to die!"

Jiang Yining's face was ashen, and a chilling ferocity surged in his eyes.

"If anything happens to Shen Tian, ​​I will never let you off the hook for the rest of my life!"

Qin Zhengtao on the other end of the phone remained noncommittal, only letting out a cold, low laugh.

The call ended a second later.

The shrill dial tone filled Jiang Yining with panic.

Before she could think further, Shen Sinian called her immediately.

"Yi Ning, Xiao Tian suddenly vomited a large amount of blood; his condition is critical!"

"Dr. Wen has arrived and is doing his best to save her. Don't worry, I feel it's necessary to tell you about this."

Jiang Yining felt her blood run cold.

She immediately recounted Qin Zhengtao's phone call.

"It was Qin Zhengtao who did this; I have to go."

"Don't be impulsive!" Shen Sinian urged urgently.

Jiang Yining clenched her fists, forcibly calming herself down.

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

After hanging up the phone, she drove quickly to the outskirts of the city.

She already had a professional locator implanted in her body, and Ji Shu's soothing voice kept coming through her in-ear headphones.

"Ningning, I've been keeping an eye on your location the whole time. The search and rescue team and security personnel are all in position."

"Don't be afraid, everything will be alright. We'll be there to meet you anytime."

Jiang Yining responded and sped up the car.

Twenty minutes later, the car arrived at the outskirts of the city.

She turned off the car lights and slowly walked inside.

The wind was biting cold, and the rooftop was empty and desolate.

Qin Zhengtao stood with his hands behind his back, overlooking the entire city of Jiangcheng.

Hearing footsteps, he slowly turned around.

"I know you brought men and set up a trap."

Qin Zhengtao chuckled lightly, "I never intended to leave here alive."

Jiang Yining's eyes were chillingly cold.

"What did you do to Shen Tian?"

Qin Zhengtao raised an eyebrow, his smile sinister: "I didn't do anything."

"Do you think the poison was used for nothing back then? That poison was slow-acting and had a long-lasting effect; it had long been at the point of concentrated outbreak."

"Shen Tian vomiting blood today is simply the poison taking effect as expected."

"You're a beast."

Jiang Yining pursed her lips, her anger surging within her.

"Say whatever you want."

Qin Zhengtao didn't care at all; instead, his face was full of admiration.

"But you are indeed capable, managing to get Wen Junshan to help save people."

"Of course you can rest assured, Shen Tian will live. After he vomits blood again, the toxins will be completely eliminated."

Jiang Yining's gaze sharpened. "You'd be so kind as to tell me something like this?"

Qin Zhengtao chuckled softly, his eyes filled with madness.

"I'm about to die, so there's no need to hide anything anymore. I'll just lay out the whole truth for you to see."

He leaned forward slightly, his eyes sinister.

"Aren't you curious about what Fu Huaiyan is pretending to be?"

Jiang Yining remained silent.

Qin Zhengtao spoke to himself.

"You probably can't understand why I haven't completely eliminated you and your mother all these years?"

"It's not that I'm soft-hearted, it's Fu Huaiyan."

As he said this, a cold glint appeared in his eyes.

"Back then, when you and Fu Huaiyan were about to get engaged, I originally planned to eliminate the possibility of a future relationship."

"Once you and your daughter are gone, all my stains will disappear."

"At that time, I thought Fu Huaiyan married you because he loved you deeply, so I made up my mind to make you die. But I never expected that he was such a good actor."

Jiang Yining's breath caught in her throat, and a tidal wave of emotions surged within her.

"In order to put on a show of not loving you, he did not hesitate to spread rumors that he resisted the marriage and hated you, and was even willing to be whipped by his family in order to solidify the illusion of neglecting you."

Qin Zhengtao's tone was sinister, full of resentment.

"He understands people so well, and he understands me even better."

"He exploited my vulnerability as a fledgling fighter, making me believe you posed no threat. He deceived everyone, including me, otherwise you wouldn't be alive today!"

Every sentence subverts Jiang Yining's past.

She never imagined the truth was like this.

I never imagined that the truth would come from Qin Zhengtao's mouth.

"What's the point of telling me all this?"

Qin Zhengtao sneered, "I just regret not killing you sooner, otherwise even Fu Huaiyan couldn't protect you."

"Are you backed by the Kyle Group?"

Qin Zhengtao didn't answer, but instead roared in frustration.

"Fu Huaiyan is ruthless. He pretended to favor Shen Miaoyin and to be extremely indifferent to you, which made me certain that he had no feelings for you. I lowered my guard and kept you safe for seven years."

He paused, then gave a disdainful smile.

"He acted for seven whole years, manipulating everyone, but so what?"

"When the game ended, didn't he still abandon you in the end? He couldn't protect you then, so he had to resort to a worse strategy. Is it going to be the same now?"

Jiang Yining suppressed her turbulent emotions and looked up at Qin Zhengtao with a cold gaze.

"Are you sure you want to keep talking this nonsense?"

Qin Zhengtao felt a chill, then burst into laughter.

The laughter was maniacal, carrying with it endless hatred.

"Fu Huaiyan's move was too ambitious and ruthless. He Sze and I have been planning for years, joining forces with the Kyle family, hoping to gradually devour the Fu family and control the overall situation."

"Just when success was within reach, he brought it all down in a single day!"

"We only wanted to seize the Fu family's assets, but he's relentlessly pressing us, even attempting to completely annihilate the Kyle family and cut off all our escape routes!"

Jiang Yining's expression changed drastically, and he pressed for an answer in a stern voice.

"What is it that you really want?"

"It's pointless to say these things now."

Qin Zhengtao suppressed his smile.

"Jiang Yining, it's over. Let me tell you one more thing: no one who stepped into here today will leave alive."

He reached into his pocket and pulled out a black remote control.

Fingertips caressed the keys, and his eyes held an extreme madness.

"Jiang Yining, take a good look."

"Because of you, everyone who came to protect you will be buried with you."

"Alright, let's say goodbye to this world."

Jiang Yining's pupils contracted sharply, her whole body went cold, and she instantly realized his trump card.

He had planted a bomb.

"Qin Zhengtao, you've gone mad! You've planted a bomb on the roof!"

"So what if it is?"

Qin Zhengtao's smile was both obsessive and ferocious.

"If I don't live, you won't live either! All of you should be buried with me!"

After saying that, he pressed the button hard with his fingertips.

Immediately afterwards, the bodyguards who had been lying in ambush all around rushed forward.

She held his arm tightly, trying to stop him.

Shen Sinian rushed up to the rooftop and immediately shielded Jiang Yining behind him.

"Walk!"

"It's too late."

Qin Zhengtao broke free of his restraints and laughed maniacally.

"The time bomb has already been detonated. The countdown is over, and everyone here will be reduced to ashes!"

"Three! Two! One!"

Everyone on the scene tensed up, and everyone instinctively ducked and rushed to cover, preparing for an explosion.

Shen Sinian hugged Jiang Yining tightly in his arms.

However, the expected deafening explosion never came.

The entire rooftop was deathly silent, without a sound.

The madness on Qin Zhengtao's face froze.

His eyes were bloodshot as he pressed the remote control again.

"How is that possible? How could it not work!"
