The intoxicating, familiar fragrance on Yan Liang enveloped him. He felt as if an invisible, seductive venomous snake had fixed its gaze on him.
Once it coils around you, it won’t let go until it kills you!
And at this moment she was so gentle—her fair, soft fingertips touched the young man’s nose, then glided down to the tip, his thin lips, his neck, Adam’s apple, and collarbone…
Qin Jiang felt he was going mad. Young Mistress Yan had a firm hold on his lifeline every single time.
Who could possibly refuse a domineering, composed tycoon heroine cooing and acting coquettish for him in a soft voice??
In any case, he couldn’t control himself.
He couldn’t resist.
Click.
All of Qin Jiang’s senses were firmly gripped by Yan Liang. His attention was entirely on the hand she used to touch him.
He didn’t notice at all that Young Mistress Yan had with her other hand unfastened the pink-diamond collar with one motion and brought it toward his neck.
The sound of the collar being buckled echoed.
Yan Liang leaned in and kissed his neck.
It tickled, sending waves of tingling through him.
“Hubby… it’s your turn.”
Yan Liang’s subtle fragrance wafted over, cruelly breathing deliberately at his neck.
Young Mistress Yan was really naughty~
But she truly loved Qin Jiang too~
Qin Jiang was swept up in the moment. Faced with Yan Liang’s domineering, possessive posture from above, he lost his composure.
He finally couldn’t hold back. Lowering his eyes, his voice was hoarse as he spoke.
“Yanyan, I beg you.”
“Pamper me…”
Qin Jiang’s voice trembled slightly.
No other reason—it’s simply too embarrassing!!
Qin Jiang was being too obedient, which sparked a flame in Yan Liang’s eyes. She gripped his neck again, this time pulling the pink-diamond collar, her gaze full of an uncontrollable, wicked desire.
“Mm, I’ll pamper you now.”
“As long as you’re good, I’ll satisfy you in every way.”
…
They drove all the way.
The black stretch Rolls-Royce was about to smoothly enter Liangyue Manor.
But suddenly, Zhou Ning slammed on the brakes.
Plop!
Qin Jiang sank to his knees on the car’s plush carpet. The collar remained on his neck, but his shirt collar was a chaotic mess.
He hurriedly straightened his shirt and looked at Yan Liang. Ms. Liang calmly sat up, her eyes narrowed in a predatory way, looking explosively pleased.
A term flashed through Qin Jiang’s mind… She was a bad girl!
Now she looked prim and proper, but just a moment ago… she was both lecherous and wicked!!
Although he hadn’t exactly not enjoyed it.
Qin Jiang felt a secret thrill as he quickly fixed his shirt. The partition lowered, and he heard Young Mistress Yan’s hoarse voice ask a question.
“Zhou Ning, what happened?”
Clearly, she was displeased by such a sudden interruption.
And they were already at the gates of Liangyue Manor—who would have the nerve to stop her car?
“Ms. Liang, it’s Mr. Qin’s friend… his classmate, Song Jie.”
“He looks like he’s in very bad shape.”
At that, Qin Jiang hurriedly opened the door and got out.
He strode to the front of the car and sure enough, Song Jie was soaked and covered in blood. Even after being washed by the heavy rain, the horrific wounds were still unmistakable.
This… this… how did it come to this?
Qin Jiang frowned, incredulous as he looked at Song Jie’s almost inhuman appearance.
Song Jie had always been thin, but now, standing in the rain like a lost soul, he looked terrified. His pale face was stained with droplets of blood, a few bangs hanging over his forehead, making him look lonely and fragile.
Through the rips in his clothes one could see a dark wound on his abdomen, blood still steadily flowing out.
Yet Song Jie seemed to stand there without awareness.
He looked utterly wrecked, as if the sky had fallen in.
Qin Jiang could tell even with his toes—Song Jie had discovered he’d been cheated on.
He must have seen it himself.
But… why did he make himself look so miserable?
Being cheated on was despairing, but it shouldn’t cost you your life.
“Jiang… Brother Jiang, Kexin doesn’t want me anymore, Kexin really cheated on me!”
“Kexin even said she’d long wanted to break up with me, that I’m a poor guy who can’t give her a finer life…“
Song Jie’s pale, cold fingers trembled. His whole body shook as if the emotions he’d held back for so long completely collapsed the moment he saw Qin Jiang!!
Sometimes emotions work like that: you can endure the pain alone, but the moment a close person or friend offers comfort, you break down into sobs…
Qin Jiang understood.
In his previous life, when Bai Chuchu betrayed him, he was equally heartbroken.
But Bai Chuchu was even crueler—she once took one of his kidneys with her own hands!!
Fortunately, there was still time to help Song Jie.
“She’s with Wu Yu now—the school heartthrob, the rich second generation Young Master Wu. She says only he can give her everything she wants, I’m no longer good enough for her.”
“Brother Jiang, it’s all my fault… it’s my fault I didn’t tell Kexin I already had money. If I had insisted on bringing Kexin to live in the villa, given her the fancy car you gifted me to show off… maybe Kexin wouldn’t have left me?”
After all, Song Jie and Jiang Kexin grew up as childhood sweethearts, a couple who stayed together because of their love for one another.
More than ten years of commitment couldn’t be severed easily overnight.
Qin Jiang’s expression darkened as he prepared to comfort him.
The rain above them was suddenly stopped by a black umbrella… it was Yan Liang.
Yan Liang approached the two holding the black umbrella. Her long, thick lashes were curled, her fair, delicate face still put off and icy, but her action was unexpectedly warm.
It shattered his previous life’s stereotype of Yan Liang as a cruel and heartless woman.
The longer he was with Yan Liang, the more he sensed that strength and softness coexisted in her heart.
“M-ms… Ms. Liang?”
“No need, I’ll hold the umbrella myself.”
Even Song Jie, who was emotionally out of control from being cheated on, was startled and hurried to take the umbrella himself.
How could the Young Mistress of the most powerful family of the capital city hold an umbrella for a small drifter like him??
“You got cheated on?”
Yan Liang ignored his refusal, stepped forward, and stood beside Qin Jiang.
Qin Jiang naturally took the umbrella from Yan Liang’s hand.
Serving the Young Mistress was his honor.
However, Young Mistress Yan truly lacked tact—how could she bring up the topic so directly??
Song Jie hesitated for a moment, forcing out a smile so ugly it was worse than crying.
“Ms. Liang… you’re right, I was cheated on!”
Yan Liang inspected his wounds.
“And beaten?”
That question was pointedly awkward.
Although Song Jie felt ashamed, the natural pressure from Young Mistress Yan forced him to straighten up and answer obediently.
“Yeah… that other man’s bodyguards beat me!”
“They beat me all at once too… I have no family here, and last night Brother Jiang and yourself had to return to the old manor… I didn’t want to disturb you…”
Song Jie looked so pitiful, yet still kept up a polite demeanor.
Qin Jiang listened, his face twisted, brow furrowed and fists clenched.
In his previous life he lacked the ability to escape Liangyue Manor to help Song Jie and ended up letting him fall to his death.
In this life, he was determined to help reverse the situation.
He tensed all over. Yan Liang seemed to sense his emotion and gently took his lowered hand.
She patted it soothingly.
She looked up at Song Jie and asked, “Do you have a favorite female celebrity?”
“Like a top-tier one—someone like what’s her name? Something Bing, or something Mi, along those lines. Any favorite?”
Song Jie was confused.
Why was she asking such a question now?
“I… I like Sister Bingbing, she’s my ideal woman~”
Song Jie was totally baffled.
But he also vaguely felt that since Ms. Liang had asked him to say it, she must have a good reason for it.
“Mm, Zhou Ning, arrange for Sister Bingbing to go to the hospital to take care of Song Jie and accompany him through his heartbreak.”
“Come along now, we’ll take you to the hospital, and we’ll give you a downtown villa plus five cars—does your heart still ache now?”
Song Jie was speechless.
It seemed being cheated on wasn’t quite so painful anymore~
Qin Jiang was also taken aback. My wife really knows how to comfort* others**~~*
