Mr. Xiao, can I borrow your wedding invitation?

Chapter 207 I wish I could tear your face off

Qian Xingjie didn't plan to come back after receiving the call, but when he thought about his future, he gritted his teeth and returned.

As soon as Jiang Rourou saw him, she cried even harder, tears streaming down her face.

When Qian Xingjie asked for the reason, Jiang Xue recounted the general course of events. "Young Master Qian, I'm not saying this to be mean, but your sister went too far. No matter what Rou Rou did wrong, she is still your girlfriend and the future wife of the Qian family. Even if you don't care about her, you should at least consider the consequences, especially since she is pregnant with your child. She completely disregarded everything. It's one thing to beat her like this, but what if something happens to the child? You'll regret it then!"

Jiang Rourou's face was almost swollen like a pig's head. Mu Sha was strong and ruthless, slapping her one after another without even blinking.

This is pure revenge, revenge!

Jiang Rourou was in so much pain, but Qian Xingjie didn't even say a word of concern. He sat on the sofa and leisurely drank his tea. "Rourou, really, why did you go and provoke her? Ke'er is spoiled and willful. Even I have to give her some leeway. Instead of staying at home, you went and provoked her. Aren't you just asking for trouble?"

"I..." Jiang Rourou not only received no comfort, but was also scolded by Qian Xingjie. Who could stand that? She cried even harder, even threatening the child, "Mom, my stomach hurts, ouch, ouch..."

She bent over, clutching her stomach, pretending to be serious.

Jiang Xue was startled and patted her daughter's chest. "Rou Rou, don't get agitated. Be careful not to upset the baby. Take deep breaths!"

Turning to Qian Xingjie, she reminded him, "Young Master Qian, pregnant women need to maintain a good mood at all times, otherwise it will affect the fetus. Rou Rou's body is already weak, and the doctor has said to be careful to protect the pregnancy. You know, she has suffered such injustice, anyone would be depressed for a while, and if it goes on for too long, the fetus will..."

"Alright, I understand. I'll talk to Ke'er about this. Let your mom go with you to the jewelry store tomorrow to pick out a style!" Qian Xingjie slammed his teacup on the table, walked away without much enthusiasm, and had only been there for about ten minutes.

The moment he stepped out the door, Qian Xingjie's face was filled with a sinister look.

It's impossible for him to confront Qian Ke'er directly; he needs to prioritize the bigger picture and cannot afford to have a direct conflict with her for the time being.

But the way she treated Jiang Rourou clearly showed that she didn't respect him as her brother and slapped him in the face. His self-esteem was trampled underfoot once again. Qian Xingjie curled his fingers and vowed that one day he would take over the Qian family and become the head of the Qian family, above all others.

The old residence of the Xiao family.

Xiao Jiayang stood in front of the dressing mirror, straightening his tie. He glanced at Nan Wu, who was tending to her wounds, and the look of disgust in his eyes grew even stronger.

"Hey, can you stop wearing those white, black, and gray cotton skirts all the time? It's not like we haven't given you money, do you have to be so frugal? You look like you're going to a funeral, seeing you is bad luck!"

Nan Wu turned around, feeling somewhat awkward in the face of his disdain.

Xiao Jiayang continued to mock, "You were dressed so flamboyantly just a while ago, but you've gone back to your old ways in the blink of an eye. Nan Wu, what kind of show are you putting on? Ha! I know, you're deliberately teasing me to get my attention, right? But I'm sorry, I just can't stand your pretentious act!"

Xiao Jiayang had initially thought this woman had a captivating charm, but he hadn't paid attention to it before. Marriage was actually a good thing, but recently, his beautiful fantasy was shattered without warning.

She's still boring, weak, and rigid. What good is a pretty face? She was so passionate and charming just a while ago. Turns out, it was all just a bubble. Pshaw!
Faced with Xiao Jiayang's sarcasm and ridicule, Nan Wu's lips twitched, and her eyes reddened.

She blamed Su Ying for ruining her image and raising everyone's expectations of her, which made it impossible for her to continue acting.

"Oh, right!" Xiao Jiayang took a few steps, then suddenly stopped and turned back. "I heard you went to the hospital to see Nan Dongxue a few days ago?" Nan Wu nodded, about to speak, but he retorted, "Nan Wu, do you even have a brain? Don't you know what Nan Dongxue's situation is? He's a suspect in a major criminal case. If you contact a suspect, you can't escape responsibility. If you can't escape responsibility, our Xiao family will become the subject of everyone's gossip. I'm warning you, you're not allowed to see Nan Dongxue again, or I'll divorce you and kick you out!"

After saying that, he turned and walked away.

Nan Wu's chin trembled, her eyes were red, and tears were about to fall.

Without the Nan family as her backing, everyone bullied her. Her mother, Fang Lanxin, felt that the Xiao family was the best place for her, but she herself didn't think so at all. The only thing she felt in the Xiao family was endless humiliation.

The phone rang.

She took a deep breath and swiped her phone screen. "Hello, who is this...?"

Qian Ke'er wants to see her.

Nan Wu was well aware of how dangerous this woman was; she had almost been killed by her several times. But now that she suddenly wanted to see her, Nan Wu couldn't understand it and didn't dare to go.

However, she went anyway.

The meeting place was Qian Ke'er's villa.

"Miss Nan, do you know? Every time I see your face, I feel like tearing it off!"

As soon as Qian Ke'er spoke, Nan Wu trembled with fear. "Miss Qian, I am Nan Wu, not Su Ying. If you have a grudge against Su Ying, go settle it with her. I have nothing to do with this!"

Having already experienced Qian Ke'er's cruelty and ruthlessness, she couldn't wait to sever ties with Su Ying. At the same time, for the first time, she hated herself for having such a face.

Qian Ke'er covered her mouth and suddenly laughed, "Miss Nan, don't be afraid. Of course I know you're not Su Ying, and I know who to settle scores with. Besides, we're allies now, don't you think?"

Nan Wu looked up at her.

With her delicate and petite face, the appearance of a girl from a modest family, and the air of nobility and splendor of a wealthy young lady, she had the capital to be arrogant and domineering, relying on the Qian family as her backing.

"Miss Qian, please speak your mind!"

Qian Ke'er took the flower tea bag handed to her by Mu Sha and took a leisurely sip. "Since Miss Nan has already guessed, then I'll be frank. Miss Nan, what do you think of Brother Shen?"

Nan Wu was startled, and then her heart pounded like a drum, wondering if Qian Ke'er had noticed something.
“My fourth uncle is a talented young man, and he is admired and respected by many people!” She chose the most suitable answer.

“Indeed! Compared to your husband Xiao Jiayang, he is far superior. Brother Shen is handsome, tall, and incredibly talented. He is the dream man of countless girls. Even I admire him greatly. Whoever can become his woman would have a truly fulfilling life. Don't you agree, Miss Nan?”

Nan Wu was filled with anxiety, unable to figure out what Qian Ke'er was trying to say or why she kept bringing up Xiao Shen.

Could it be that she discovered something?
