Clearly, the actions of Jiang Ron and Gu Zhanqing had thoroughly angered her.
She didn’t care at all about preserving appearances.
Jiang Rou kept her mouth shut.
Gu Zhanqing cautiously approached and said, “Yining, let go of Ah Rou. She’s not well and can’t handle this. If you want to leave, 1 can release you.”
“Heh, do you take me for a three-year-old child? Gu Zhanqing, if you were willing to let me go, you wouldn’t have kidnapped me to this place. Make your people back off. I want to leave with her.” Jiang Yining vigilantly watched everyone around her.
Gu Zhanqing, as cunning as a fox, certainly had an ambush in place.
She had to be extremely careful.
Gu Zhanqing fell silent for a moment, then waved his hand to signal his subordinates to disperse.
Upon seeing this, Jiang Yining said, “Make them all swim to a spot 30 meters away from here.”
Gu Zhanqing’s expression turned icy, and he ordered, “Do as she says.”
“Understood.”
Like dumplings being tossed, the group of around twenty people jumped into the water.
Gu Zhanqing asked, “Are you satisfied now?”
“Satisfied? You’re still standing here. How can 1 be satisfied?” Jiang Yining’s smile didn’t reach her eyes. “You jump in too!”
“Jiang Yining, don’t be so audacious!”
Gu Zhanqing shouted in anger.
He was, after all, her elder. How could she dare to make him jump into the frigid sea?
“If you don’t jump, 1’11 push her in.”
Jiang Yining said, abruptly shoving Jiang Rou.
Jiang Rou’s lower half was left dangling above the water, and she cried out in shock.
Gu Zhanqing’s face changed a few times. “Fine, I’ll do as you say. Bring All Rou back.”
Jiang Yining nonchalantly pulled Jiang Rou back.
Jiang Rou, with her small, tear-streaked face, still shook her head at Gu Zhanqing and said, “Don’t jump, you’ll get sick.” She then pleaded, “Yining, don’t make things difficult for Uncle. We were only trying to help you by taking you away. If you don’t want to, we’ll let you go. We’re all family; there’s no need to make things so ugly.”
Jiang Yining turned a deaf ear to her words and gave her orders once again: “Jump, and you have three seconds.”
“Three, two, one…”
She counted very quickly.
As the final number fell, Gu Zhanqing unhesitatingly jumped into the water.
Plunk!
Water splashed, and Jiang Yining pushed Jiang Rou aside, grabbing the oar to strike Gu Zhanqing a couple of times.
She pushed him back into the sea.
Observing his miserable condition, she sneered, saying, “Gu Zhanqing, I’ve told you, I have nothing to do with the Gu family anymore. If you dare to provoke me again, it won’t just be about jumping into the sea. 1’11 expose you to the entire nation, live on camera!”
With that, she turned and walked away.
Looking at her departing figure, Gu Zhanqing said, “Going back won’t help you either. I’ve arranged for Chen Kexin to replace you in consummating the marriage with Lu Zhi. By now, they’ve most likely completed everything. Jiang Yining, Lu Zhi is tarnished; would you still want him?”
He had raised Jiang Yining himself and understood her better than anyone.
She wanted her man to be pure and solely hers. If he were tainted by another woman, even if it were unintentional, she’d consider him dirty and never touch him again.
Jiang Yining hesitated for a moment.
In the next moment, she picked up a stone from the beach, aimed it at Gu Zhanqing, and hurled it at him.
Gu Zhanqing swiftly evaded the projectile.
Thud!
The hefty five-pound stone created a tremendous splash of water.
Jiang Yining’s figure quickly vanished into the pitch-black night.
Once she was gone, Jiang Rou quickly lowered a rope and pulled Gu Zhanqing up.
Seeing him soaking wet, she took off her cloak to offer him. He declined.
With a sniffling nose, Jiang Rou said, “Yining is too heartless. On such a cold night, she made you jump into the water. What if you fall ill?”
“I’m fine. Ah Rou, you stay here quietly. I’ll handle things.”
He was going to take everyone to witness the thrilling wedding night of Lu Zhi and Chen Kexin.
Gu Zhanqing made a phone call.
In no time, two off-road vehicles appeared on the shore.
Without saying much, Gu Zhanqing jumped into one of the cars and hurriedly drove away.
Jiang Yining made her way out of the forest, taking one step after another, before glancing in the general direction of the mansion.
Finally, she was back at the estate.
The guests who hadn’t left yet noticed her somewhat disheveled appearance.
Some of them asked curiously, “Yining, isn’t tonight your wedding night with Ah Zhi? Why are you not with him and instead coming out?”
“I went to see a friend off, and now I’m going back to find Ah Zhi.”
“I see.”
The guests wore sly smiles.
Jiang Yining didn’t explain herself.
She proceeded calmly toward the guest rooms. Just as she reached the elevator, Old Madam Lu led a group of people toward her.
Seeing Jiang Yining, Old Madam Lu asked, “What are you doing here?”
Jiang Yining replied with a non sequitur, “1 was just on my way back.”
“Well, 1 have some matters to discuss with Ah Zhi.” Clear Lan called her earlier, telling her that Kexin had been missing all night. She was worried that Kexin might be overwhelmed and so wanted Lu Zhi to send more people to look for her.
“Tonight, I don’t think Ah Zhi will have time for you.”
Jiang Yining responded bluntly.
Old Madam Lu’s face reddened with anger. “When you married into our Lu family, you became my granddaughter-in-law. Do you not understand respect for your elders? How dare you speak to me like this!”
Jiang Yining smirked. “I’ve been quite polite with you.”
Old Madam Lu fumed. “You…”
But she restrained herself in light of the other guests and didn’t go too far.
She gritted her teeth. “I’m ignoring you. I’m looking for my grandson, and you have no right to stop me.”
“Sure, feel free to look for him. We’ll see if he listens to you or me.” Just as the elevator arrived, Jiang Yining stepped in first.
Old Madam Lu, despite her frustration, also entered the elevator.
The other guests, who had been watching the scene, decided to join them.
The elevator slowly ascended to the top floor.
Ding!
The crisp sound rang out, and Jiang Yining expertly headed to the new bedroom.
Old Madam Lu was only half a step behind.
They both reached for the door handle and pushed the door open almost simultaneously.
And then, with a sharp clap, Jiang Yining illuminated the room with the light switch.
The room was a mess, with scattered men’s and women’s clothing strewn all over the floor.
There, on the bed, lay a naked man and woman…
This scene made it unmistakably clear that Jiang Yining had been betrayed.
Old Madam Lu froze in shock.
And just as everyone stood there in stunned silence, Gu Zhanqing arrived with the others.
He pretended not to know anything and addressed Jiang Yining, “Yining, Uncle has come to bless you. Happy newlyweds.”
Following him were the others, and they also witnessed the scene in the room.
A deathly silence fell over the room, and all eyes turned to Jiang Yining, who had been betrayed by her own husband..
