Third Master, please restrain yourself. Our marriage is a marriage of convenience.

Meeting the man's cold and fierce eyes, Jiang's father trembled in fear.

He looked at his daughter, who was crying her eyes out, with a pained expression, and said through gritted teeth, "Jingjing, you have to understand your father. I have to think about the whole family."

Although he was also very reluctant to part with his daughter.

But the Jiang family couldn't withstand Master Shen's wrath.

Moreover, he was powerless to do anything about it; no matter what he did, Jiang Jing couldn't escape punishment.

Jiang Jing rushed over, grabbed her mother's hand, and cried until her eyes were swollen: "Mom! Aren't you going to care about me anymore?"

"Jingjing." Jiang's mother cried very sadly, but she didn't say a word in her defense.

Jiang Jing never expected that her parents, who usually doted on her so much, would abandon her so easily. She screamed frantically, "I was wrong! Third Master, I was wrong! I was really wrong! Please don't put me in jail!"

Her cries were shrill and piercing. Shen Huaiyu frowned impatiently: "If you know you're wrong, then accept your punishment."

"Take them out." Shen Huaiyu's brow furrowed with a hint of irritation as he coldly ordered the bodyguards behind him.

The bodyguards stepped forward, grabbed a piece of cloth and stuffed it into their mouths, then grabbed Li Xue and Jiang Jing's arms on either side and forcibly dragged them out.

A bead of cold sweat dripped down Jiang's father's forehead. He stood before Shen Huaiyu, trembling, and said, "Third Master, Young Master Qin, it is my fault for not disciplining my daughter properly, which has led her to commit such a grave mistake. Please, have mercy on the Jiang family."

"How so?" Shen Huaiyu asked Pei Jinhe.

This means that she has been given the power to make the decision.

Jiang's mother kept apologizing to Pei Jinhe: "Miss Pei, I'm sorry, I didn't discipline my child well. Please give her a chance to make amends."

Pei Jinhe showed no mercy, coldly warning, "Keep your daughters in check. If this happens again, your Jiang family will also be in deep trouble."

Although seeing Jiang's mother set aside her dignity to beg her for her daughter touched her heart.

But she's not a saint; she can't let someone who tries to hurt her get away with it.

Jiang Jing is definitely going to jail.

Someone in her condition wouldn't last long in prison.

If she behaves herself from now on and doesn't cause her any trouble, then we can live in peace.

If she doesn't repent, she'll suffer the consequences later.

Shen Huaiyu's icy voice rang out: "Did you hear that?"

"We heard you, we heard you." Mr. and Mrs. Jiang nodded repeatedly.

Qin Yuyang called out, "Butler, see the guests out."

Faced with their daughter's shameful act, Mr. and Mrs. Jiang were too ashamed to stay and slunk away like stray dogs.

The matter was resolved, and the atmosphere returned to normal, with everyone chatting and laughing.

Shen Youcheng had taken in all of Pei Jinhe's actions just now.

Calm and composed, unperturbed in the face of change.

He controlled the entire situation with ease.

Such calmness and intelligence are rare qualities in women.

interesting.

After watching the commotion, Liang Xuyan, not one to shy away from stirring things up, continued to provoke Qin Yuyang, asking, "Qin Yuyang, if I remember correctly, this should be your admirer, right?"

Qin Yuyang's face instantly fell, filled with disgust: "What kind of admirer is this? What bad luck!"

Shen Huaiyu's handsome face was cold and stern: "Since he's your admirer, why would he cause trouble for your sister-in-law?"

Hearing the man's indifferent voice, Qin Yuyang knew that this man was angry, and he was practically on the verge of tears: "Third Brother, this is a huge misunderstanding."

He recounted the events that occurred at the hospital to Shen Huaiyu.

In short, Jiang Jing only came to cause trouble for Pei Jinhe because she mistakenly thought Pei Jinhe was Qin Yuyang's woman.

Shen Huaiyu's eyes sharpened: "Take care of your unwanted romantic entanglements."

Qin Yuyang nodded repeatedly: "Definitely, definitely."

Shen Huaiyu's sleeve was suddenly tugged.

He turned around and met a pair of shimmering, peach-blossom eyes. The coldness in the man's eyes seemed to lessen, and his gaze softened.

Pei Jinhe felt her cheeks flush under his gaze. She lowered her eyes to avoid his intense gaze and whispered, "Thank you for earlier."

Shen Huaiyu's Adam's apple bobbed, and though his voice was calm, it held a hint of warmth: "I brought you here, so I should be responsible for your safety."

Pei Jinhe's heart felt as if it had been scalded by hot water, and she trembled slightly, as if something wanted to break through the soil.

Families eager to curry favor with the Shen family rushed over to toast Shen Huaiyu.

Remembering his stomachache, Pei Jinhe reminded him, "Don't drink too much alcohol; it's bad for your stomach."

Shen Huaiyu's eyes were deep and dark, like unyielding ink, and his magnetic, pleasant voice entered Pei Jinhe's ears: "Okay, I'll listen to you."

These words made the surrounding air seem ambiguous and hot.

Pei Jinhe blinked her dark eyelashes twice.

The strange, unusual flutter in my heart.

Shen Hanyin, who witnessed the whole thing, smiled so much that her eyes narrowed into slits.

There is a play.

There's definitely something going on between them.

His younger brother has always been unruly and only listens to his grandmother.

But when Pei Jinhe told him to drink less, he immediately agreed.

What else could this be but love?!

As long as she provides the good stuff that helps.

Perhaps their relationship will progress rapidly.

Recalling Pei Jinhe's calm demeanor earlier, Shen Hanyin asked curiously, "Jinhe, did you already suspect something?"

Pei Jinhe told the truth: "It wasn't that early. I only realized something was wrong when she shouted that her bracelet was missing. I checked the surrounding surveillance footage and found that my bag was blocked by a pillar."

"So I messaged Shen Huaiyu and asked him to find someone to identify the fingerprints and investigate Jiang Jing's movements."

Shen Hanyin was surprised by Pei Jinhe's meticulousness and praised her, "Jinhe, you are so smart."

Pei Jinhe scratched her head sheepishly: "It's true that this method is full of loopholes; a little thought will reveal many flaws."

Before framing someone, they didn't even bother to hack all the surveillance cameras; that would have been the safest course of action.

However, it's unlikely she had the ability to hack all the surveillance cameras.

In fact, she had already learned these methods from Ji Yuyan.

After she turned fifteen, she moved back to the Ji family. Ji Yuyan used this kind of trick to frame her and try to drive her out.

The Ji family didn't care about the truth at all. Once, they locked her in a dark room for a whole night. In the dead of winter, she developed a high fever for two days and almost fainted.

But at that time, she had no power to resist.

They could only live in silence.

Because of the shares she held, they didn't dare to go too far, but this kind of underhanded torment was enough to make her suffer.

Fortunately, the same thing happened again, and Shen Huaiyu believed her, and Shen Hanyin also believed her.

She had only been messaging Shen Huaiyu for about ten minutes when he gathered all the evidence and brought the person with him.

He didn't even ask her what she wanted to do, and immediately agreed.
