The SSSSSSSS-level Mad Dragon is released from prison!

"Actually, actually, I already have someone I like!"

After Su Jinyu finished speaking, the room fell completely silent.

After she finished speaking, she lowered her head, not daring to look at Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen looked at her, his expression unchanged.

Whether Su Jinyu has someone in her heart or not is of no concern to him.

All he needed was her Ice Phoenix Body, nothing more.

As for feelings, that's utter nonsense.

"So, you want to break the contract?" Jiang Chen asked.

"I..." Su Jinyu was speechless for a moment.

She had just been pulled back from the brink of death, and now she was saying such things to her savior; it certainly seemed like she was ungrateful.

But marriage is not a game.

"Jiang Chen, you saved my life. I, Su Jinyu, will remember this kindness for the rest of my life."

Su Jinyu raised her head, her eyes regaining their usual coldness as a business queen.

She walked to her desk, took out a checkbook, quickly wrote down a string of numbers, and then tore it off.

"Fill in ten million on this check; consider it my consultation fee."

She placed the check on the table in front of Jiang Chen with swift and decisive movements.

"In addition, I will give you another ten million as a buyout fee for our engagement."

"From this moment on, you, me, and the Su family have nothing to do with each other anymore."

These words were spoken decisively, without any emotion.

It was as if the person who had just been lying in the coffin wasn't her, and the person who saved her wasn't Jiang Chen.

In her view, Jiang Chen, a convict who had just been released from prison, had no reason to refuse a huge sum of 20 million yuan.

This is both a way of repaying a debt of gratitude and a form of expulsion.

"Jinyu! How could you talk to Xiaojiang like that!"

Li Qiuyue couldn't stand it anymore and hurriedly came over, pressing down on the check.

"He's your savior! Without him, you'd still be lying inside!"

She pointed towards the direction of the mourning hall outside, her chest heaving with anger.

"Mom, a life-saving debt and marriage are two different things." Su Jinyu's attitude was firm. "Repaying him with money is already the best way."

"You..." Li Qiuyue was speechless with anger.

Just then, the door was suddenly pushed open.

Su Changhe walked in with a dark expression; he had clearly overheard the conversation.

"Well said! That's exactly what we should do!"

He walked a few steps to the table, picked up the check, and waved it contemptuously in front of Jiang Chen.

"Kid, did you hear me? Twenty million, take the money and get the hell out of here!"

"Giving you 20 million yuan, a former convict, is a blessing you couldn't have earned in eight lifetimes!"

Su Changhe found an outlet to vent his frustrations, releasing all the humiliation he had felt from being suppressed by Jiang Chen.

"Why don't you take a piss and look at yourself in the mirror? You think you can be my Su family's son-in-law? A toad trying to eat swan meat!"

"Changhe! Shut up!" Li Qiuyue roared at her husband.

"Shut up? What I said wasn't the truth?" Su Changhe retorted, his neck stiff. "If he doesn't take the money and leave, I'll make him disappear from Qincheng!"

Su Jinyu did not stop her father, which was tantamount to acquiescing to his statement.

In her view, she and Jiang Chen were from completely different worlds.

What she needs is a strong person who can fight alongside her in the business world and even protect her from the storms, not a burden who needs her support.

Jiang Chen watched the farce unfolding between the family of three without saying a word.

He reached out and picked up the check.

Upon seeing this action, both Su Changhe and Su Jinyu wore mocking expressions that said, "Just as I expected."

In their eyes, Jiang Chen was ultimately just a greedy, vulgar man.

"You're smart to know what's good for you," Su Changhe sneered.

Jiang Chen ignored him, simply holding the check up to his eyes and glancing at the number on it.

Then, he looked at Su Jinyu.

"Ten million? You want me to sell?"

"Ten million to buy out our engagement?"

With each question he asked, Su Jinyu's brows furrowed even more.

"Isn't that enough? You can name your price." Su Jinyu thought he thought it was too little.

Jiang Chen smiled.

"You overestimate yourself, and you underestimate me."

The voice just fell.

"Sizzle!"

With a flick of his two fingers, the check containing twenty million dollars was torn in two.

"What are you doing!" Su Jinyu exclaimed in surprise.

Su Changhe's eyes widened as well.

Jiang Chen didn't stop; he crossed his hands and kept tearing at the wound.

In the blink of an eye, the check turned into countless tiny pieces of paper.

He released his grip, letting the scraps of paper flutter down like snowflakes.

"You can't afford my things."

"The reason I agreed to this marriage is not because of your Su family's money, nor because of your status as the second young lady of the Su family."

Jiang Chen's gaze fell on Su Jinyu, carrying a penetrating power.

"What I'm after is your Ice Phoenix Body."

"What?" Su Jinyu's body trembled slightly; she had never heard this word before.

"Without me, you won't survive tonight."

Jiang Chen said those words and turned to leave.

"Stop! What does 'Ice Phoenix Body' mean?" Su Changhe realized what was happening and roared as he tried to stop him.

"Get out of here."

Jiang Chen didn't turn his head, and an invisible aura emanated from his body.

Su Changhe felt a powerful force strike him, and he stumbled back several steps before landing hard on his backside, his face filled with horror.

Jiang Chen walked to the door, stopped, but did not turn around.

"The Ice Phoenix Body is awakening for the first time, and the cold energy is only temporarily suppressed by me."

"At midnight tonight, the cold air will erupt again, a hundred times more intense than the last time."

"At that time, even a celestial being couldn't save you."

"If you want to live, you can come and beg me."

"However, the next consultation fee will be different."

After saying that, he strode out of the room, leaving behind only shock and scraps of paper scattered on the floor.

Li Qiuyue watched Jiang Chen's retreating figure, then looked at her stunned daughter and disheveled husband, and stamped her feet in frustration.

"You...you're pushing our family's savior away!"

Su Jinyu stared blankly at the scraps of paper on the ground, Jiang Chen's last few words echoing in her mind like a curse.

Ice Phoenix Body?

Will a cold snap occur at midnight?

Is what he said true?

For the first time, she felt a sense of unease and an indescribable panic.

Just as Jiang Chen was about to open the door.

"Bang--!"

The villa's front door was violently kicked open from the outside, making a loud noise.

An arrogant voice then rang out.

"I heard my precious cousin came back to life?"
