Regretful Beijing Marriage

"I'll return all the money! Not a single penny! Please, please let me go. I really didn't kill anyone; it has nothing to do with me!"

Inside the room, his fellow villager was still sprawled on the floor, wailing and crying.

But Jiang Yining could no longer hear anything.

My limbs and bones were soaked in a bone-chilling cold.

Fu Huaiyan's ruthlessness still exceeded her expectations.

She only had a small argument with Shen Miaoyin, yet he went to such great lengths.

Even for such trivial matters, he personally accompanied Shen Miaoyin to handle them.

He'd really abandon all principles for such a vicious woman!

That was a precious human life!

Just to ruin her reputation, you'd have to harm someone?

Those innocent bystanders who were victimized were also innocent victims.

Why should they suffer like this!

Jiang Yining swayed slightly, her chest aching uncontrollably.

She could tolerate whatever Fu Huaiyan did to her.

But this time, he indirectly drove someone who wanted to reform to death!

Zhao Hui had clearly let go of the past and intended to live a good life.

In the end, however, they became victims of their romantic entanglements.

Died inexplicably.

What is Fu Huaiyan's heart made of?

That's ruthless, absolutely ruthless!

A surge of rage welled up in his chest, threatening to engulf Jiang Yining.

But in an instant, it turns into a powerless desolation.

Fu Huaiyan held absolute power in Jiangcheng.

Let alone her, an ordinary woman with no power or influence, competing with him.

Looking across the entire Jiangcheng, who would dare to be Fu Huaiyan's enemy?

Jiang Yining felt that even her chance to argue had been cut off by the other party.

"But Miss Jiang, you don't need to worry too much."

Zhou Xubai's voice pulled Jiang Yining back to reality.

She looked up in a daze and realized that her fellow villager had already been taken away by the police.

Only she and Zhou Xubai remained in the room.

"After tomorrow, no one will dare to cause trouble at your clinic again."

Zhou Xubai spoke with certainty.

Jiang Yining was startled and remained stunned for a long time.

This is the second time Zhou Xubai has dared to challenge Fu Huaiyan.

She didn't believe that a mere lawyer could suppress powerful figures.

So, his identity...

Shocked, Jiang Yining didn't delve too deeply into the matter.

She exhaled a breath of stale air and looked up at Zhou Xubai intently.

"Mr. Zhou, thank you. I will remember this kindness."

"However, I am truly unable to repay you right now. If you ever need anything in the future, please don't hesitate to ask, and I will help you in any way I can."

Zhou Xubai did not respond to her polite words.

After a moment of silence, his gaze fell into her eyes.

"Ms. Jiang, I'd like to ask you something: are we considered friends now?"

Jiang Yining was slightly taken aback, then nodded.

"certainly."

"Since we're friends, why be so formal?"

Zhou Xubai raised an eyebrow slightly. "May I call you Yining from now on?"

"Can."

Zhou Xubai curled his lips into a smile. "Yi Ning, you can call me whatever you want, but could you please stop calling me 'sir'? It sounds like an old man."

Jiang Yining chuckled lightly, not expecting Zhou Xubai to be so humorous.

"Zhou Xian... Xu Bai, of course we are friends, but let's keep things separate."

Jiang Yining gave a faint smile.

"Even the best relationships should be kept clear. If you ever need my help in the future, just let me know."

"it is good."

Zhou Xubai did not refuse again.

Just then, Ling Yi, one of his men, entered with a solemn expression.

She leaned down and whispered a few words in his ear.

Zhou Xubai's expression darkened slightly, and his eyes suddenly turned cold.

Almost at the same time, Jiang Yining's phone vibrated.

It was a message from the family's maid.

[Madam, the old lady knows about the young master's fever and is furious. She has ordered that you and the master must return to the old mansion tonight.]

Jiang Yining replied calmly, "Okay."

He then bid farewell to Zhou Xubai.

"Xu Bai, I have to go now. I'll treat you to dinner in a few days."

"I'll be waiting."

Zhou Xubai regained his composure and watched her leave.

After Jiang Yining left, the atmosphere in the room dropped to freezing point.

Looking at Zhou Xubai's cold profile, Ling Yi couldn't help but speak in a low voice.

"Boss, with our high-profile involvement in Jiangcheng's affairs today, I'm afraid the situation in Gangcheng won't be able to be contained."

"Are you... planning to return to Hong Kong?"

Zhou Xubai's eyes were cold, and his tone was distant.

"I have no connection with the Zhou family anymore. The power I've used today has nothing to do with the Zhou family. I don't want to leave, and no one can force me."

Upon hearing this, his subordinates fell silent.

After hesitating for a moment, he couldn't help but ask.

"Boss, this is the first time you've helped a girl like this. What if your fiancée finds out...?"

Over the years, the eldest brother has been secretly building up his own power in order to get rid of the Zhou family.

It's a real shame to expose ourselves now that we've almost finished building up our power.

I don't have a fiancée.

Zhou Xubai interrupted coldly, "The trivial matters in Hong Kong are none of my business. Just finish up here as soon as possible."

Ling Yi dared not say anything more and quickly retreated.

But I was still shocked.

Of all the women who have appeared around the boss, besides that one, Miss Jiang is the second.

When you compare the two, they do look somewhat alike...

Thinking of this, Ling Yi's eyes widened, and she quickened her pace to leave.

He seems to have inadvertently learned the boss's secret.

However, Miss Jiang is still a married woman.

They're still from the Fu family!

Is it really okay for the boss to blatantly rob people like this?

Ling Yi shook his head, clearing his mind of the thoughts.

He was not allowed to discuss the boss's affairs.

-

Jiang Yining took a taxi to the Fu family's old house.

The moment she got off the bus, she made a decision.

I absolutely need to buy a car.

Because her car broke down last time and hasn't been repaired yet, she can't move around at all.

It took a long time of talking to the security guard before they let the taxi in.

Before Jiang Yining could even step inside, a mocking voice came from behind her.

"Jiang Yining, you'd better put your mind to it. Don't think you can control my brother just because you have a son."

"A vicious woman like you who uses children to gain sympathy only disgusts my brother."

"This time you've truly crossed the line with the Fu family. Just you wait, you'll be kicked out of the Fu family sooner or later!"

Fu Chengxuan walked over arrogantly, his eyes full of mockery.

Jiang Yining ignored him and walked straight inside.

Behind her, Fu Chengxuan was furious and quickly stepped forward to stop her.

"You dare ignore me? Didn't you hear me talking to you?!"

Jiang Yining did not stop walking, her profile cold.

He simply uttered a casual remark before entering the room.

"The feng shui of the Fu family's old house is bad, otherwise how could we hear mad dogs barking in our ears?"

Fu Chengxuan stood there, stunned.

It took me a few seconds to realize that she was cursing at me.

Enraged, she stomped her foot, "Jiang Yining! You vicious woman, how dare you call me a dog!"

Jiang Yining completely ignored it.

Stepping into the living room, I found the atmosphere terrifyingly oppressive.

Fu Jiayu leaned weakly against the old lady's chest.

His face was pale, and he looked listless and without any energy.

The old lady's eyes were filled with heartache.

Upon seeing Jiang Yining enter, a raging fire ignited in Na Ke's eyes.

"Jiang Yining! Kneel down!"

She gave a sharp shout.

"Do you really think the Fu family is a place where you can run wild?!"
