“I have no desire to be your Mrs. Jiang. Just strangle me to death. As long as I’m alive, I will definitely divorce you.”

Jin Xue’s face contorted in pain.

She glared at Jiang Yu with disgust, her teeth clenched in hatred.

Jiang Yu locked his hawk-like gaze onto Jin Xue.

It seemed as though he wanted to crush the bones in her hand. He exerted merciless force, using every ounce of his strength. Jin Xue was in excruciating pain, her features contorted, but she refused to let go.

Jiang Yu’s voice was hoarse and chilling, delivered with slow precision. “Do you think you’re the one who’s wrong? Since you feel so aggrieved being Mrs. Jiang, then continue being Mrs. Jiang!”

Jin Xue’s eyes turned red as she agitatedly exclaimed, “Jiang Yu, you bastard! I hate you!”

“Very well. Don’t even think about getting a divorce in the next year.”

Upon seeing his bodyguard bringing a man over, Jiang Yu instantly released Jin Xue.

Jin Xue’s wrist remained sore and swollen.

Though seething with anger, her emotions calmed slightly when she noticed the filming equipment in the stranger’s hand.

“Did this person secretly take photos of me?”

Without answering Jin Xue, Yang Kai handed the filming equipment to Jiang Yu.

“President Jiang, this person is a private detective. He admitted to taking the photos last night, and someone paid him to do so. However, this kid refuses to disclose who hired him.”

Jiang Yu confiscated the memory card and erased all traces of the photos.

His voice was as icy as a frigid chamber. “Let him go, and ensure his studio vanishes completely. If he has any sense, he will leave Shen City on his own accord. Otherwise…”

The unfamiliar man trembled and was on the verge of tears. “Thank you for sparing my life, President Jiang. I will leave Shen City immediately and never show up in front of you again.”

Jiang Yu signaled for Yang Kai to release him, but he smashed the filming equipment before leaving.

The man scrambled away in haste.

After they finished, Yang Kai departed first. Jin Xue hadn’t left yet, so she questioned Jiang Yu.

“I don’t understand. Why were you secretly taking photos of me? Does it have anything to do with my mother-in-law? Yesterday, Aunt Zhen told my mother-in-law that I had a night shift. Jiang Yu, you must know who instructed that person to photograph me, right?”

Jiang Yu narrowed his eyes and stared at Jin Xue.

“Mrs. Jiang, you should get to work.”

“So, you had your men lying in wait at the hospital all along? You planned to apprehend me tonight?”

“Yes! And coincidentally, I saw Mrs. Jiang having an affair with another man! Tell me, should I punish you? How should I punish you?”

Jin Xue glared at Jiang Yu with intense hatred.

To put it bluntly, she was merely a pawn to him.

Perhaps, they were all scheming against her, thinking she was easy to bully.

The Jiang family’s dynamics were too intricate. Jin Xue had no desire to delve into them because she had never intended to integrate into the Jiang family.

She still wanted to divorce Jiang Yu.

Without saying a word, Jin Xue left.

July’s weather was scorching, but her heart turned cold.

…

Jiang Yu didn’t leave the hospital.

He received a call from another bodyguard.

“President Jiang, I have already dealt with that man named Gu. I believe he won’t dare to harass Madam at the hospital again.”

“Understood.”

After hanging up, Jiang Yu made his way to the emergency department.

Just as Jin Xue returned to the Thoracic Surgery Department, she received a call from the emergency department.

A patient with broken ribs needed to be transferred to the emergency department.

Jin Xue didn’t bother tending to the wound on her hand. She hurriedly rushed to the emergency department with a nurse.

As they neared the corridor of the emergency department, Jin Xue caught sight of Jiang Yu.

In his arms was a woman with long, straight hair.

This woman had a sweet and gentle appearance.

Jiang Yu carried her to the entrance of the emergency department, where his Rolls-Royce was parked.

Jin Xue had never seen Jiang Yu like this before. He was exceptionally gentle.
