Mr. Xiao, can I borrow your wedding invitation?

Chapter 468 His feelings for you are different.

Xiao Shen's sharp gaze suddenly shot towards her, and Qian Ke'er trembled in fright, "Brother Shen..."

"Don't tell me you didn't know about Su Ying being drugged by President Dong, Qian Ke'er. I thought you were just willful and arrogant, but it turns out you're as venomous as a snake!"

"What? President Dong drugged Su Ying? That President Dong drugged Su Ying? That has nothing to do with me. I don't know anything about it. Or is it that Su Ying is deliberately framing me? In my opinion, she's just greedy and wants to rekindle her old flame with you. I've seen plenty of women like that. They'll do anything to achieve their goals. They deserve to die!"

"Shut up!" Xiao Shen growled.

"Stop making excuses. That General Manager Dong has confessed to everything. I know exactly what you did! Qian Ke'er, I misjudged you. Now, immediately, disappear from my sight!"

Qian Ke'er's eyes instantly filled with tears. She stared at the man in front of her in disbelief. "Brother Shen, you...you actually want to send me away?"

"Fine, I admit it. It was indeed me who instructed President Dong. That useless idiot can't even handle such a small matter. It's a waste of all the benefits I gave him. Su Ying was lucky to escape this disaster!"

"But Brother Shen, don't forget, we've already had a wedding. I'm your wife, your lover. Back then, I almost sacrificed our entire Qian family to save Xiao Shen's overseas company. I risked everything for you. What did you promise me back then? Have you forgotten?"

Xiao Shen didn't even want to look at her, his expression as cold as a statue. "One thing at a time. I warned you before that Su Ying was my bottom line. You ignored my warning first, so you should bear the consequences!"

"So, you still love Su Ying, right?" Qian Ke'er stared intently at his face, trying to find the answer in his expression.

However, the man was so well disguised that no one could find a single clue.

Xiao Shen glared at her coldly, "Whether I love you or not is my business!"

Qian Ke'er smiled wryly, "So, I guessed right?"

"Brother Shen, you can't! You promised me! What is Su Ying anyway? What has she brought you? I, Qian Ke'er, have lost so much, is this how you repay me? And don't forget, she's married to Shen Qingfeng now, and they have a daughter, you. Even if you interfere, what can you change? In the end, you're just like me, a pathetic wretch who can't have the one she loves..."

"Get out!" Xiao Shen's voice was clear, cold, and sharp.

Qian Ke'er opened her mouth, then suddenly burst into a bitter laugh, "I, Qian Ke'er, am also pathetic, actually falling in love with a cold-blooded and ruthless man like you. I tried to warm your heart for four years, but I couldn't warm it, while that Su Ying did nothing and easily snatched you away from me. What makes her so special? I'm going to kill her, really kill her. Only when she's dead will you be mine, Brother Shen..."

"Get out of here!" Xiao Shen's tone became more forceful, carrying his last bit of restraint and forbearance.

"Fine, I'm leaving. I hope you won't regret it later!" Qian Ke'er took two steps back and then ran out.

Song Hao, caught off guard, was hit hard. When he came to his senses, he sighed deeply.

"Oh no! Now the world is going to be in chaos!"

Qian Xingjie was arrested and got into a car accident during his escape. He was so badly injured that he was barely alive and was lying in the hospital, looking like he wouldn't live much longer. Later, Su Ying received a call saying that Qian Xingjie wanted to see her.

Su Ying was puzzled. Qian Xingjie wanted to see her? The person on the hospital bed was covered in tubes and had an oxygen mask on his face.

He was startled when he opened his eyes and was suddenly seen standing next to him.

Su Ying looked at him expressionlessly. "Didn't you want to see me? Speak, what do you want?"

"Four years have passed, and you haven't changed at all. You're still as straightforward as ever, and as heartless as ever towards me, cough cough..."

"Did you go easy on me? Using a child to take revenge on others, you're quite the man!" Su Ying sneered.

A hint of regret flashed in Qian Xingjie's eyes. "I was just acting desperately. I had no other choice, did I? Did you think I would really hurt your daughter? I was just putting on an act in front of Xiao Shen. Qian Ke'er has been so kind to me, so I wanted to make her beloved man suffer a little too!"

"However, to be honest, at first I thought Xiao Shen was just playing around with you. After all, for a man of his status, women are just playthings for him. But this time I realized I was wrong. His feelings for you are different, extraordinary. At least he's more devoted than I am!"

These words seemed to pry open Su Ying's deliberately closed heart. She didn't want to listen anymore, afraid that she would change her mind, so she interrupted angrily, "Enough, I don't want to hear this. Do you have anything else to say?"

Qian Xingjie's gaze gradually shifted to the window. "You probably don't know how I've survived these past few years. I've lived like an ant, or rather, like a stray dog, constantly subjected to the pointing fingers and ridicule of others. During my years with the Qian family, I was always obsequious and smiling, carefully considering every word I uttered, afraid of saying the wrong thing. I did everything I could to appear excellent in front of the Qian family. They praised me on the surface, but in the end, they handed over the Qian Corporation to Qian Ke'er without batting an eye. How could a sheltered young lady who can't even embroider a needle and only knows how to eat, drink, and have fun manage such a large company as the Qian Corporation? Even so, the Qian family would rather risk entrusting the Qian Corporation to Qian Ke'er than to me, claiming that I'm an outsider. Ha! This is the result of my twenty years of hard work, this is the hypocritical face of the Qian family..."

"Despite all the bad things Qian Ke'er has done, she remains high and mighty, glamorous and radiant, while I, one wrong step, have been cast into hell, never to rise again, hahaha... This is my fate, my fate... cough cough cough..."

Su Ying glanced at him sideways, "Take it easy, maybe you can live a little longer!"

Qian Xingjie shook his head. "With nothing left, what meaning do the remaining days have for me?"

"so what?"

"I've decided to tell you one last secret!"

Su Ying frowned. "What secret? You'd better not be lying to me!"

"Do you remember four years ago, when you were bumped at your wedding and suffered a miscarriage?"

Su Ying clenched her fists and swallowed a bitter taste.

How can I not remember?
Let alone four years, even forty years, or a lifetime, Su Ying will never forget that scene.

"You really don't think that was just an accident, do you?"

"What do you mean?" Su Ying's gaze sharpened.

Qian Xingjie smiled and said, "Let me tell you. Actually, the sudden power outage at the wedding that day, plunging the entire hotel lobby into darkness, was Qian Ke'er's doing. The person who was hit was also arranged by her. There aren't that many coincidences in the world. It's not that you're unlucky, but that she's been eyeing the child in your belly. If you really gave birth to that child, what would be left for Qian Ke'er? So, she could only get rid of the fetus in your belly. It's that simple!"
