Regretful Beijing Marriage

A cold glint flashed in Jiang Yining's eyes.

She wouldn't presume to think that Fu Huaiyan was protecting her.

He's always been a hypocrite.

Slap me and then give me a piece of candy.

He had to protect Shen Miaoyin on one hand.

On the one hand, they wanted to use her to keep the old lady calm.

They want to benefit from both sides.

There's no such thing as a free lunch.

However, the matter concerning the Shen family must be resolved.

The Shen family has a grudge against her, and now they're using her as a shield.

They've bullied her time and time again, do they really think she's someone easy to bully?!

The pent-up frustration in my chest kept churning.

She was determined to seek justice from the Shen family, for every wrong had its perpetrator and every debt its debtor.

Jiang Yining let out a soft breath, suppressing her emotions.

He turned to look at Zhou Xubai beside him and said softly.

"Xu Bai, I still have some things to take care of myself."

"You go back first, don't worry."

She paused, then added.

"I know what I'm doing; only I can handle this myself."

Ultimately, she has to resolve her own issues with the Shen family.

Zhou Xubai did not offer any further advice.

He merely glanced at Fu Huaiyan, his thin lips pursed slightly, and his eyes turned cold for a moment.

He then looked away and looked down into Jiang Yining's eyes.

"Okay, call me anytime if you need anything."

Jiang Yining nodded in agreement and got into Fu Huaiyan's car.

"Go to the Shen family."

She believed that Fu Huaiyan could understand.

There are some things she needs to settle with the Shen family face to face.

It would take her time to find out where Shen lived, so it would be better to have Fu Huaiyan lead the way.

Since he enjoys being a driver so much, she naturally has to grant his wish.

Immediately afterwards, Jiang Yining added another sentence.

"Of course, if you don't want to, I can just take a taxi myself."

Fu Huaiyan didn't reply, his slender fingers tapping lightly on the steering wheel, his eyes filled with deep emotion.

Finally, they started the car and drove towards the Shen family's old house.

The car was quiet and oppressive.

After a long silence, Fu Huaiyan finally spoke.

Making a big fuss won't do you any good.

"Afraid of hurting your feelings?"

Jiang Yining felt nauseous upon hearing this.

She turned her head to the side, a mocking smile creeping onto her lips as she looked at his reflection in the rearview mirror.

"Fu Huaiyan, you're so capable, you can control everything in Jiangcheng, you should be able to handle this, why are you talking to me here?"

Fu Huaiyan pursed his thin lips, his expression slightly somber.

He glanced at her in the rearview mirror.

His eyes were a little darker than usual.

"Can't we just talk properly now?"

"How could I not have spoken properly?"

Jiang Yining sneered and leaned back in her chair, crossing her arms.

"Isn't what I said true?"

Fu Huaiyan was speechless, finally managing to utter only two words.

"what ever."

The car sped along and drove into the villa area.

The journey was smooth and unobstructed.

When they arrived at the Shen family's gate, the iron gate opened automatically.

Jiang Yining looked at this scene and suddenly found it ridiculous.

Fu Huaiyan is truly shameless.

In his eyes, they were not divorced yet.

She was still his lawfully wedded wife.

As a result, he so casually brought his wife to find his mistress.

What exactly are they thinking?

Is he afraid that she might act impulsively and hurt someone?

Or do you want to humiliate her? To protect someone in front of her?

Jiang Yining curled her lips into a sneer, her eyes filled with chilling intent.

He can look if he wants.

She won't hold back today!

Fu Huaiyan got out of the car first, followed closely by Jiang Yining.

The butler hurried forward to greet him, a smile on his face.

But when his gaze fell on Jiang Yining, his smile froze on his face.

He opened his mouth, unsure how to respond.

Why did Mr. Fu bring this woman along?!

Jiang Yining ignored him and calmly followed Fu Huaiyan into the living room.

Shen Miaoyin had already heard the commotion.

She ran down the stairs with a beaming smile, her sweet and soft voice just beginning to ring out.

"Huaiyan..."

The second half of the sound got stuck in his throat.

Shen Miaoyin's smile froze, and a sinister glint flashed across her eyes.

"Jiang Yining, what are you doing here?"

Jiang Yining ignored her and walked into the living room without looking at her.

In the living room, Shen Sinian and the Song brothers, Song Yu and Song Ran, seemed to be talking about something.

The group had just gotten up to greet Fu Huaiyan.

The moment they saw Jiang Yining, they all stopped moving in unison.

After a brief silence, Shen Sinian was the first to come to his senses.

"Miss Jiang, what brings you here so late?"

That's clearly a way of telling someone to leave.

Song Yu took two steps forward, trying to change the subject.

"Dr. Jiang, what a coincidence! I've been so busy lately that I haven't had a chance to schedule an appointment. When would be a convenient time for you recently...?"

"No work-related discussions after get off work hours."

Jiang Yining interrupted him, "If you want to make an appointment, contact my assistant during working hours."

Song Yu choked for a moment, opened his mouth but didn't say anything more.

The tone of the voice clearly indicated ill intent.

Jiang Yining glanced around indifferently, then walked straight up to Shen Sinian, her gaze sharp and piercing.

"Are you in charge of the Shen family now?"

Shen Sinian was slightly taken aback. "Yes."

"Okay, then I have a question for Mr. Shen."

Jiang Yining nodded, a chill flashing in her eyes.

"Is this the way your Shen family behaves—repaying kindness with enmity and harming your benefactors?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Miaoyin became furious and interrupted her with a scream.

"Jiang Yining! What do you mean by daring to cause trouble at our Shen family's residence!"

Jiang Yining didn't look at her once from beginning to end; her gaze remained fixed on Shen Sinian's face.

His tone was sharp, filled with barely suppressed anger.

"Shen Sinian, you should know better than I do what happened to me today."

"And this matter originated from your Shen family."

"Now that things have come to this, shouldn't you give me a reasonable solution?"

Shen Sinian's expression suddenly turned serious.

"Ms. Jiang, I'm so sorry, but don't worry, I will definitely give you an explanation."

"Explain?"

Jiang Yining scoffed.

"So your solution is to let me suffer retaliation and live in constant fear."

"In the end, they just send a few bodyguards as a symbolic gesture, to get by and do a superficial job?"

Shen Sinian's face was grim.

"Give me a little more time, and I promise I won't implicate you."

"I don't have time to waste on you Shen family."

Jiang Yining was too lazy to listen to his nonsense.

"Three days."

"If you don't clean it properly, don't blame me for being impolite!"

She paused, then glanced at everyone present, her voice firm and resolute.

"If anyone continues to harass me three days from now, I won't hesitate to release Shen Tian's whereabouts."

"If I'm not having a good time, none of you should expect to be either!"

As soon as those words were spoken, the expressions on everyone's faces changed drastically.

The air froze instantly.

Shen Miaoyin's eyes were bloodshot as she screamed wildly.

"I knew it! Jiang Yining, you're the mastermind!"

"You're trying to murder my brother! Do you really think the Shen family is easy to mess with?!"

Jiang Yining raised her eyes coldly, her smile chilling and piercing.

"Think what you want."

"I'll just say one thing: if your Shen family can't clean up your own mess, then I don't mind making your words come true."
