Regretful Beijing Marriage

Jiang Yining repeatedly swiped her finger across the phone screen.

Everything that had just happened vanished, as if it had never existed.

She scoffed and put down her phone.

Besides Fu Huaiyan, who else could handle it in such a short time?

He was very considerate of Shen Miaoyin in every way.

However, Jiang Yining wasn't too angry.

She knew perfectly well that this public opinion campaign wouldn't cause any real trouble.

She has a long way to go before she can make Shen Miaoyin pay the price.

Stopping her thoughts, she focused on continuing her work.

-

Hotel private room.

Lu Yunshen pushed open the door and entered. After sitting down, he looked at Fu Huaiyan with a half-smile.

"I heard that President Fu made a big splash today, buying out the entire car dealership? Is the Fu family planning to cross over into the car manufacturing industry?"

"You're a step too late. I already made a joke about it."

Xie Xingzhou responded with a smile.

Shen Miaoyin sat beside Fu Huaiyan, her eyes filled with shyness, and she lowered her gaze as if to appear bashful.

"Please stop talking, I'm getting embarrassed."

"I just casually mentioned wanting a car as a gift because my birthday is coming up soon, I didn't expect it to cause such a big fuss."

She then changed the subject, her tone deliberately aggrieved.

"If it weren't for Miss Jiang's appearance, Huai Yan wouldn't have had to spend so much money to protect me."

Looking back now, it was a bit of a waste.

Upon hearing Jiang Yining's name, Xie Xingzhou's smile vanished.

"Miaoyin, don't blame yourself for this kind of person, it's not worth it."

"She's openly cheating on Huaiyan now; just mentioning her makes me feel disgusted."

Shen Miaoyin's lips curled into a secret smile, but she feigned innocence on her face.

"I saw it with my own eyes today. Miss Jiang and that lawyer Zhou were getting very close. Outsiders say they are a couple, and they seem quite intimate."

This remark ignited a tense atmosphere in the private room.

Xie Xingzhou sat up straight and frowned as he looked at the silent Fu Huaiyan.

"Huaiyan, what are you thinking? Things have come to this point, and you still won't get a divorce?"

Lu Yunshen also followed up with persuasion.

"Yes, even if you don't care about this marriage, you can't let her do whatever she wants."

"This has really blown up. If it gets to the old lady's ears, no one will be able to explain it."

Fu Huaiyan leaned back in his chair, his expression indifferent, his eyelids slightly drooping.

He ignored all the surrounding discussions.

He didn't care about Jiang Yining's actions.

Just then, Xie Xingzhou's expression changed drastically, and he let out a low shout.

"Look, what you feared most has come to pass! Quick, check online!"

Lu Yunshen frowned and opened his phone.

The front page headline was a photo of Jiang Yining and Zhou Xubai embracing in a hotel.

The photographer had a tricky angle.

It looks ambiguous no matter how you look at it.

The poster even wrote a post titled: "Deep Dive into the Secret Marriages of the Rich and Powerful."

The author does not dare to directly refer to people's names throughout the text.

But the implication was clear: Mrs. Fu had an affair.

Every word struck a nerve with the Fu family.

Lu Yunshen was so angry that his face turned green.

He handed the phone directly to Fu Huaiyan.

"Huaiyan, look, the photos are already leaked, the whole internet knows about it, are you just going to sit idly by?"

Xie Xingzhou was so angry that he felt chest tightness and shortness of breath.

"Fu Huaiyan, look at the comments! Some people are even laughing at you, calling you a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle!"

Throughout the entire process, Fu Huaiyan maintained a cold expression.

She merely raised her eyelids slightly, then fell silent.

Shen Miaoyin bit her lip and tentatively probed in a soft voice.

"Huaiyan, are you really planning to waste your whole life like this? We've missed seven years, I don't want to..."

Before he could finish speaking, Fu Huaiyan's phone suddenly rang.

After answering the call, his face darkened, and he got up and walked out.

"What's wrong?" Lu Yunshen asked.

"Grandma had an accident and is in the hospital now."

Fu Huaiyan spoke in a cold tone and walked hurriedly.

Shen Miaoyin's heart tightened, and she subconsciously reached out and grabbed his wrist.

"Huaiyan, I'll go with you!"

Fu Huaiyan pulled his hand back decisively.

"Need not."

"Take Miaoyin home."

After saying this, Fu Huaiyan strode away.

Behind them, Xie Xingzhou and Lu Yunshen were cursing Jiang Yining's ancestors for eighteen generations.

Shen Miaoyin's smile froze, and a ruthless glint flashed in her eyes.

-

hospital.

Jiang Yining also received a call and rushed over without finishing her work.

When they arrived at the hospital, everyone in the Fu family was there except for Fu Huaiyan.

Jiang Yining frowned, and had just stepped forward when she hadn't even asked the old lady about her condition.

A figure rushed over.

Fu Chengxuan raised his hand and shoved her hard.

Jiang Yining was caught off guard and fell to the ground.

The skin was scraped and broken.

The chill seeped through my clothes from the ground.

It was bone-chillingly cold.

Fu Chengxuan's eyes widened in anger, filled with disgust.

"Jiang Yining, you're the one who's ruined everything!"

"He's so indiscreet in public, causing such a huge scandal that he even sent Grandma to the hospital!"

"If anything happens to Grandma, I will absolutely not let you get away with it!"

Jiang Yining's heart skipped a beat.

Before she could even push herself up from the ground, a stack of newspapers was thrown hard at her face.

Zhou Jin looked down at her, his expression icy.

"Jiang Yining, do you really think the Fu family is a place where you can run wild?"

"You'd better pray that Mom is alright, otherwise you won't be able to bear the consequences!"

Jiang Yining picked up the newspaper.

The most prominent position is the "intimate photo" of her and Zhou Xubai.

The text inside is utter nonsense.

It's all a lie!

Jiang Yining instantly understood.

It was taken by that group of reporters.

She forced herself to sit up, her fingers gripping the newspaper tightly, wanting to explain.

"This is a misunderstanding; it was just a crowded situation..."

"You have no right to speak here."

Fu Chenyue's cold and stern gaze pressed down heavily, his imposing presence intimidating.

Cut off all her excuses.

Direct conviction.

No one was willing to listen to her explanation.

Jiang Yining felt suffocated by the tightness in her chest.

A bitter taste and a sense of grievance welled up within me.

It's clearly a frame-up.

But in the eyes of the Fu family, she will always be the guilty one.

But she simply couldn't not explain!

Once she's branded as having an affair and angering the old lady, she'll never be able to clear her name.

She was well aware of the Fu family's methods.

Dignity versus the future!

She had absolutely no choice!

Just as Jiang Yining was about to speak again to explain.

Steady footsteps echoed from the end of the corridor.

It's Fu Huaiyan!

When Fu Chenyue saw him arrive, he was furious.

"So you finally decided to come back?"

Fu Huaiyan had no time to pay attention to others and spoke directly.

"Dad, how is Grandma?"

After he finished speaking, a deathly silence fell over the surroundings.

Jiang Yining could feel the piercingly cold gaze falling on her.

She clutched the newspaper, her fingertips trembling slightly, and looked up at Fu Huaiyan.

Although she had no feelings for Fu Huaiyan.

In the Fu family, the only person she could talk to was him!

Jiang Yining opened her lips, but before she could speak, Fu Huaiyan's thin lips parted slightly, each word as cold as ice.

"Get out! We don't need you here!"
