222 Jiang Xue’s Complaint
Meng Yu took a sip of the red wine, narrowed his eyes and savored the taste, then said slowly, “Sure enough, it’s a disaster caused by love, and it’s even a four-way love. This Madam Jiang is really too much. Why did she have to interfere in the love of a young man? See, there’s trouble coming for her now.”
He continued, “Arrange a time for me to meet this Madam Jiang. It’ll also be good for me to formally inform them of the punishment they’re going to receive.” After he finished speaking, Meng Yu finished the red wine in one gulp.
Before dealing with people, he would first go to the other party’s territory to send a letter of challenge to notify them. This had always been the arrogant and domineering Meng Yu’s habit.
The assistant took out an invitation and said, “President Meng, how about meeting at Old Master Xiang’s birthday banquet?”
“Old Master Xiang? Xiang Jun from Xiang Group?” Meng Yu asked.
“Yes, it’ll be Old Master Xiang’s birthday banquet in a few days. With the relationship between the Xiang and Jiang families, Madam Jiang will definitely attend. Of course, Xiang Cheng, who fought with the young master, and the young lady of the Jiang family, Jiang Xue, will also be there. Given Xiang Cheng’s personality, perhaps even the Jiang family’s adopted daughter, Shen Xi, will be there,” the assistant said.
In the past, Meng Yu definitely wouldn’t go to such an insignificant invitation. But this time, the birthday banquet had something Meng Yu wanted to see, so the assistant guessed that Meng Yu would definitely go.
Meng Yu looked at the assistant’s well-arranged expression, smiled, and said, “You know me the best. I’ll go. Oh right, don’t reply so quickly. Give them a surprise.”
The assistant was already immune to his boss’s way of thinking, so he nodded calmly to show that he understood.
Early the next morning, Jiang Xue, whose heart was heavy, took leave and went home.
As soon as she got home, Jiang Xue couldn’t help but drag Xia Chun to the bedroom.
Xia Chun saw the scars on Jiang Xue’s face and asked with heartache, “Xue, what happened to your face? How did you get injured like this? Tell me who did this. I’ll beat that person to death.”
Jiang Xue couldn’t care less about the injury on her face. She asked anxiously, “Mom, are you sure that all the videos of me at the hotel were destroyed?”
Xia Chun’s heart ached for her daughter’s injured face. “That’s a given. When your father made a move, Hao Zi and the others were so afraid that they handed everything over. Even the place they lived in had been turned over several times. In this city, there’s nothing your father can’t do.”
Even though Jiang Xue still felt a lot of uneasiness in her heart, she felt a little more at ease after hearing Xia Chun’s words.
“My dear daughter, tell me, how did your face get injured?” Xia Chun looked at Jiang Xue’s small face with heartache.
Jiang Xue immediately started sobbing. “It was Shen Xi. She slapped me and splashed water all over me. She even warned me that if I dared to tell you or touch her parents, she’ll release the video of me being violated in the hotel.”
At this point, Jiang Xue cried even louder. “Mom, I don’t want that. I don’t want anyone to see those videos. I’m scared. I won’t be able to live.”
When Xia Chun heard Jiang Xue’s tearful complaints, she quickly hugged her daughter in her arms, her eyes filled with ruthlessness. “Don’t be afraid. Shen Xi is lying to you. She can’t possibly have the video. I will avenge you.”
Xia Chun hugged Jiang Xue tightly and thought viciously. “Shen Xi, since you dare to hurt my precious daughter, don’t blame me for hurting your lowly parents!”
When Shen Xi woke up, she realized that Guan Lei was holding her hand tightly and felt terrible.
She was so angry that she wanted to pull her hand away, but when she saw the dark circles under Guan Lei’s eyes, she couldn’t bear to do it.
Shen Xi’s heart was conflicted, but she couldn’t help but look at Guan Lei, who was sleeping soundly.
In fact, Guan Lei’s facial features were exceptional, especially his eyelashes, which were curled and long. Furthermore, his eyes, which seemed to have stars in them, were stunning.
It was only because Guan Lei was troubled by insomnia that his facial features didn’t shine like they usually did.
Shen Xi tried her best to ignore the dark circles under Guan Lei’s eyes and his pale skin. She imagined how handsome and charming Guan Lei would be once he returned to normal.
As she thought about it, Shen Xi couldn’t help but be entranced, immersed in her own imagination and unable to extricate herself.
“What are you looking at?” a slightly hoarse voice entered Shen Xi’s ears.
