Regretful Beijing Marriage

Jiang Yining looked at the faces in the hall, all waiting for her to finish the job, and suddenly laughed.

His eyes held a chilling coldness.

"Let's check the surveillance footage and find out the truth."

Her voice was neither too loud nor too soft.

"So that the dirty water meant to harm others won't be unfairly dumped on my head."

Xie Xingzhou was so angry that his face turned green.

"Jiang Yining, don't be ungrateful! Everyone is offering you a way out, but you insist on holding on."

"If this really gets out of hand, you'll be in deep trouble!"

He thought the woman was mentally ill.

So many people are watching.

If things really escalate, she'll be the one who suffers the consequences.

"You won't let me check the surveillance footage every time, and you always try to shift the blame onto me when something goes wrong."

Jiang Yining sneered, her gaze sweeping over Xie Xingzhou's face.

"So who's really feeling guilty?"

Xie Xingzhou puffed out his cheeks twice, unable to utter a word.

Shen Miaoyin's fingertips turned white from pinching the hem of her skirt.

She knows the truth better than anyone else.

Once it's made public, Shen Tian's arrogant and domineering nature will be fully exposed.

Not only will the Shen family be viewed differently.

She herself would also be ridiculed.

No!

Cannot view surveillance footage!

Shen Miaoyin's eyes immediately welled up with tears, and she pretended to be magnanimous and back down.

"Alright, everyone, stop arguing."

"It's more important to check on Xiaotian's condition first. Perhaps I misunderstood Miss Jiang in my haste. I won't pursue the matter further."

Song Yu walked up to Jiang Yining, bowed his head, and apologized.

"Dr. Jiang, the Song family's hospitality was inadequate today, causing you to suffer. On behalf of the Song family, I apologize to you..."

"So, you're not going to check the surveillance footage?"

Jiang Yining interrupted him impatiently.

Every time Shen Miaoyin gets into trouble.

In the end, she still had to compromise.

This time, she did not do as they wished!

Fu Huaiyan's cold gaze locked onto her once again.

A chilling sense of oppression emanated from his eyes.

Silent pressure.

Jiang Yining remained completely unfazed and did not yield an inch.

Song Yu was taken aback for a moment, then became serious.

"If Dr. Jiang wants to investigate, then he can."

"The truth should be made public."

Shen Miaoyin's face suddenly turned deathly pale, her heart filled with both jealousy and hatred.

What kind of magic does that bitch Jiang Yining possess?

It's clearly my territory for today's banquet!

But she still managed to get Song Yu to protect her!

On what basis?!

In the stalemate, Shen Miaoyin could only turn to look at Fu Huaiyan.

I hope he will speak up.

Fu Huaiyan's expression was calm, and his voice was deep and authoritative.

"The banquet is about to officially begin. There's no need to make a big fuss over this. Let's know when to stop."

When the words were spoken, the air in the entire hall seemed to freeze for a moment.

The pressure was blatant and clear to everyone.

Fu Huaiyan is backing up Shen Miaoyin again.

Looking at Fu Huaiyan's expressionless face, Jiang Yining suddenly felt incredibly bored.

Fu Huaiyan truly didn't hesitate to lower himself for the sake of the Shen siblings.

Showing favoritism in public.

Even if we investigate, so what?

Fu Huaiyan always manages to protect those he wants to protect.

He has a hundred ways to turn black into white.

If she continues to make a scene, she will only embarrass herself.

Jiang Yining let out a sigh of relief.

She came today to find out some truths.

I'm not going to engage in empty talk with them.

Without saying another word, Jiang Yining turned and walked out.

High heels clattered on the marble floor.

The sounds grew fainter and fainter.

The banquet proceeded as scheduled.

Jiang Yining walked to the backyard alone.

The air in the backyard was much cooler than in the living room.

The pool water shimmered with a deep blue light under the illumination of the lights.

The poolside lounge chairs were empty, so Jiang Yining chose the corner seat to sit down.

Not long after, Song Yu quickly chased after him and bowed again to apologize.

"Dr. Jiang, what happened today was indeed due to our lack of consideration, and you have been wronged."

Jiang Yining was too lazy to listen to these polite words.

She knew that Song Yu respected her because she could save his mother.

Ultimately, these people in high positions are all birds of a feather.

Jiang Yining looked up, her tone indifferent.

"Is your mom home? I'd like to talk to her."

"Dr. Jiang, this banquet tonight is specially held for my mother, and she is temporarily unable to attend."

"Could we arrange for you to meet after the banquet?"

"Can."

Jiang Yining nodded slightly, her tone distant.

"I'll just stay in the backyard, and hopefully no one will bother me anymore."

"I'll arrange it immediately."

Song Yu solemnly agreed, then turned and instructed all security personnel to strictly prohibit anyone from approaching the backyard.

The backyard quickly returned to tranquility.

Jiang Yining leaned back in the recliner and closed her eyes for a while.

The noise from the main hall could be heard through several walls.

A gentle breeze blew by, and Jiang Yining still felt the burning sensation on her face from the slap.

The wound on the corner of my mouth ached as the evening breeze blew on it.

Just as I was lost in thought, I heard arguing coming from the entrance to the backyard.

"Young Master Shen, I'm so sorry, please go to the front yard or the lounge to rest."

"This backyard is a restricted area that President Song specifically ordered to be closed to the public; no one is allowed to set foot in it."

"Why should I? I'm going to stay here!"

Shen Tian coughed twice more before he could catch his breath.

"Song Yu is also my brother. If you stop me again, I'll talk to my brother-in-law!"

Shen Tian impatiently pushed past the security guard and walked in.

He looked up and was caught off guard when his eyes met those of Jiang Yining, who was reclining on the chair.

Shen Tian's expression suddenly changed, his lips curled up, and anger surged up again.

"What are you doing here, woman! Who gave you permission to stay here?"

The security guard turned pale with fright and quickly stepped forward to explain.

"Young Master Shen, Miss Jiang is a distinguished guest personally invited by President Song."

"You're not feeling well, please don't get angry. Go upstairs and rest. If anything happens to you, none of us can afford the consequences!"

"I'm not leaving!"

Shen Tian stood there, clenching his fists, glaring at Jiang Yining.

His chest heaved, and his thin face, with its prominent cheekbones, looked particularly haggard in the blue light of the swimming pool.

Jiang Yining completely lost interest in sitting in meditation.

Today is not the time for conversation.

She had no interest in getting angry with a minor.

Jiang Yining stood up, straightened her skirt, and said coldly to the security guard.

"Go back and tell your CEO Song that if the Song family is so insincere in their hospitality, they don't need to invite me again in the future."

The security guard's expression changed drastically instantly, as if he wanted to say something.

But Jiang Yining was too lazy to listen and turned to leave.

The next second, Shen Tian rushed forward and blocked her way with his arms outstretched.

"Don't leave!"

Jiang Yining's anger was rising to her throat.

You can't leave!

Staying or not leaving isn't an option either!

The entire Shen family is truly devoid of any manners.

She stared coldly at Shen Tian, ​​her tone carrying a warning.

"Don't think that just because you're a child I won't dare to touch you."

Shen Tian was stunned for a moment by her words.

He pursed his lips twice, and the surge of energy in his throat suddenly dissipated by more than half.

He lowered his head and looked at his toes, mumbling something indistinctly in his throat.

"I...I didn't mean to cause trouble..."

Jiang Yining looked at him.

"The room was too stuffy, I just wanted to come out for some fresh air."

Shen Tian lowered his head, his toes grinding against the cracks in the floor tiles.

"I won't bother you, I'll just sit for a while and then leave."

After saying that, he walked over to the recliner next to him and sat down.

There were two chairs between me and Jiang Yining.

The security guard stood at the entrance, bewildered.

Jiang Yining kept a calm expression, then waved to the security guard and sat back down.

The backyard was so quiet that only the sound of water could be heard.

Shen Tian huddled in a chair, hugging his knees, resting his chin on his arm, staring blankly at the surface of the pool.

After the menacing look on his face disappeared, he just looked like an excessively thin child.

At 12 years old, she was thinner than any other child her age she had ever seen.

Jiang Yining always believed that Shen Tian was inherently wicked and committed evil deeds for no reason.

Only now do I realize that he wasn't entirely unreasonable.

All the malice and hostility were directed at her alone.

Jiang Yining glanced at him sideways, then turned back to look at the moon.

A strange sense of bitterness welled up in my heart.

If her sister were alive, she would be about this age.

He would act coquettishly towards her, and tug at her sleeve, calling her "sister."

They will protect themselves just as Shen Tian protected Shen Miaoyin.

Unfortunately, there is no such thing.

Jiang Yining's expression turned somewhat somber, and almost subconsciously, she blurted out.

What is your birthday?
