Regretful Beijing Marriage

A piercing sound exploded around them, accompanied by continuous screams.

"Who's so inconsiderate as to throw things from a high-rise building?!"

"Are you crazy? What if someone gets killed?!"

Jiang Yining stood frozen in place, her heart pounding wildly.

Cold sweat seeped down my back from my shirt, sticking to my spine in a chilly way.

She subconsciously looked up at the building and only caught a glimpse of a dark shadow flashing by.

It vanished in an instant.

Porcelain shards fell at my feet.

The sharp edges gleamed with a cold light.

It landed on her head just a foot away.

The chill spread through my limbs and bones, lingering for a long time.

"Mr. Jiang, are you alright?"

Ling Qi strode forward, her tone tense.

Jiang Yining was speechless for a moment.

If it weren't for Ling Qi, she would have been dead.

It took her a while to come to her senses.

She then realized that, besides Ling Qi, a strange man had also reached out and grabbed her.

Jiang Yining hadn't even seen the person clearly, and before she could thank them, the other person released her grip and took a half-step back.

After confirming that she was standing firmly, he turned around and blended into the crowd.

In the instant they brushed past each other, a metal button on his cuff flashed with a faint glint.

Before Jiang Yining could take a closer look, the person had already disappeared.

It looks familiar.

However, she didn't take it to heart.

This person must be the bodyguard sent by Shen Sinian.

"President Jiang, we've already called the police, but the person has escaped. There are no security cameras in this area, so the investigation will likely take some time."

"I see."

Jiang Yining exhaled, a cold glint appearing in her eyes.

This matter was far more complicated than she had imagined.

Ling Qi lowered her eyes, quickly edited and sent a few messages, put away her phone and spoke in a deep voice.

"President Jiang, let's take another route."

Jiang Yining nodded in agreement, suppressing the panic in her heart.

"You drive."

On the way back, she remained uneasy.

Zhang Biao, a ruthless outlaw, never follows any rules.

She simply couldn't understand how this person could blame her for everything.

Today's incident of objects being thrown from high-rise buildings is just a warning; such behavior will surely escalate in the future.

Being entangled with someone who's fearless is like stepping on a piece of chewing gum that you can't shake off.

The more you tear it, the tighter it sticks.

Jiang Yining wearily pinched the bridge of her nose, just about to tell Ling Qi to drive faster.

The rear of the car was hit hard.

The violent shaking made Jiang Yining's heart tighten.

She instinctively gripped the seatbelt tightly.

That's how I managed to prevent my body from losing control.

Ling Qi reacted quickly, gripped the steering wheel, and turned it sharply.

The car body spun half a circle and then stabilized.

A bread truck was parked behind the car.

A man jumped out of the driver's seat, bent over, and ran over to knock on the car window.

"I'm so sorry, I was distracted and rear-ended the car. I will fully compensate for all the losses."

Ling Qi got out of the car and negotiated with the other party for less than three minutes.

The other party's attitude was unbelievably good.

They transferred the money on the spot and lost money.

It makes you want to get angry but you can't find a reason to.

Throughout the entire process, Jiang Yining sat quietly in the car without saying a word.

But the coldness in his eyes grew even stronger.

She knew.

The other party did not intend to kill her so quickly.

After Ling Qi safely returned Jiang Yining to the company, she sent the vehicle for repair.

As soon as I got back to the office, Zhao Jia ran over carrying a package.

"Ningning, your package has arrived. I've put it on your desk."

Jiang Yining nodded, closed the door, walked to the table, and opened the package.

The next second, a dead rat came into view.

The tail was nailed to the bottom of the cardboard box.

His whole body was covered in blood.

The word "death" was written in blood on the bottom of the box.

It looks terrifying and horrifying.

Jiang Yining's gaze darkened, and she closed the box expressionlessly.

I took a garbage bag, put it in two layers, and threw it into the outside garbage can.

When Jiang Yining returned to her office, she rubbed her temples, feeling a bit of a headache.

The other party was indeed a desperate criminal, capable of destroying people's spirits.

This kind of insidious method is far more suffocating than direct harm.

Does this mean she'll have to live in constant fear from now on?

Thinking of this, Jiang Yining's face darkened completely.

On what grounds did these people have to blame her?!

If you really want revenge, shouldn't you go after the Shen family?

She always felt that this matter was not as simple as it seemed.

There is definitely more to the story than meets the eye.

Zhou Xubai arrived when I was leaving get off work.

He remained calm, his gaze fixed on her, and spoke gently.

"Ningning, I'll take you home today."

Jiang Yining was not surprised that Zhou Xubai knew about it, nor did she ask any further questions.

She picked up her bag and walked out with him.

"Xu Bai, how much do you know about Zhang Biao?"

Zhou Xubai's expression darkened slightly.

"This guy came from the Golden Triangle, he has too many lives on his hands, and he has been living in the gray area for many years."

"He does things cleanly and leaves no evidence, so even though everyone knows he has committed many evil deeds, they can't arrest him."

"All I know is that he has an old grudge against the Shen family and has been looking for an opportunity to take revenge."

"But he also knew who he couldn't touch, so he set his sights on Shen Tian."

After a pause, Zhou Xubai lowered his voice slightly.

"Shen Tian's poison is probably also related to this person."

"However, he should not be the one behind the scenes. There must be someone else behind him. This time, the Shen family arrested him, and his people outside will not let it go."

Jiang Yining's heart sank.

Shen Sinian was clearly deliberately concealing the truth.

Now it seems that she was most likely a scapegoat implicated by the Shen family!

She even had reason to suspect that the Shen family wanted to push her out to eliminate any future troubles.

The Shen family has really done a lot of harm!

"Thanks."

Jiang Yining composed herself.

She will definitely go to the Shen family herself to seek justice for this matter!

Zhou Xubai shook his head.

"There's no need for formalities between us. You're my friend, so it's only right that I help you."

"The Shen family acted quickly this time; most of their people have already been arrested."

"The remaining remnants of the party cannot cause any trouble in Jiangcheng."

Jiang Yining didn't say anything, just smiled faintly.

As she reached the door, she stopped in her tracks, her brow furrowing unconsciously.

Fu Huaiyan arrived at some unknown time.

He leaned against the car, his shirt collar open, exuding a cold aura.

Almost as soon as she stepped out, Jiang Yining could clearly feel that gaze fixed intently on her.

A sense of oppression washed over me.

The moment their eyes met, a chill ran through Jiang Yining's heart.

This man is truly a persistent ghost!

She didn't care what Fu Huaiyan wanted to do after coming over.

She has fulfilled her promise.

If he dares to threaten again, go ahead and try!

Jiang Yining withdrew her gaze and turned to leave with Zhou Xubai.

Fu Huaiyan spoke first.

The voice was carried over by the night breeze.

"Come back with me, your house isn't safe."

Jiang Yining ignored him and walked past him.

"You want to live in a house covered in blood?"

Fu Huaiyan's voice came up from behind, filled with endless coldness.

"I don't want my son to cry over something like this."

Jiang Yining stopped in her tracks.

Zhou Xubai stepped forward, standing between her and Fu Huaiyan, his voice flat but sharp.

"Instead of saying these things, Mr. Fu should do something practical."

"You could solve this with just a few words, you don't need to come here as a driver."

Fu Huaiyan didn't look at him.

His gaze passed over Zhou Xubai's shoulder and landed on Jiang Yining's face.

He parted his thin lips slightly, his voice low.

"So, shall we get in?"
