In the third year of their marriage, Shen Shuangmiao discovers that Zhu Jin loves her sister-in-law.
While she waits alone at home, Zhu Jin is celebrating his sister-in-law's birthday.
Chapter 96 Losing Dignity
"Zhu Jin!"
Shen Shuangmiao's heart sank suddenly, and without caring about anything else, she rushed over immediately.
She crouched down and patted his face.
"Zhu Jin! Wake up!"
There was no response.
There seemed to be blood seeping through the gauze on Zhu Jin's forehead, and his face was frighteningly pale.
Shen Shuangmiao panicked.
She immediately took out her phone, her fingers trembling, and dialed the emergency number, giving the address and the situation.
After hanging up the emergency call, Shen Shuangmiao hesitated for a moment.
She absolutely cannot have any further involvement with him now.
Especially when they're alone together.
Shen Shuangmiao gritted her teeth, found Zhou Wu's number, and dialed it.
The call was answered quickly.
Zhou Wu's voice carried a hint of sleepiness and impatience.
"Hello? Who is it?"
“It is I, Shen Shuangmiao.”
Shen Shuangmiao tried to keep her voice calm.
"Zhu Jin has fainted. I've already called an ambulance. You'd better come over right away."
After saying that, she hung up the phone without waiting for Zhou Wu's response.
She glanced at Zhu Jin.
He was unconscious, his brows furrowed, and even in his unconscious state, he seemed to be in great pain.
Shen Shuang turned around decisively, walked quickly to her car, and opened the car door.
She stepped on the gas and drove away from the villa without the slightest hesitation.
As night deepened, the piercing sound of an ambulance soon approached from afar.
Almost simultaneously, Zhou Wu's car also rushed over and came to a sudden stop on the side of the road.
She looked at the man being carried onto a stretcher by medical staff, her face extremely pale.
Zhou Wu didn't have time to think and got into the ambulance, which escorted him all the way to the hospital.
After an emergency examination and treatment, the doctor made a diagnosis.
"He was too emotional, and his old head injury had not yet healed, so he was weak and needed to rest and be observed."
Zhou Wu nodded, stepped aside to let the doctor leave, and went into the ward.
The hospital room was dimly lit.
Zhu Jin slowly opened his eyes.
As his consciousness returned, he subconsciously searched for that figure.
"Miaomiao..."
The next second, Zhou Wu's face appeared in front of him, her face full of worry and grievance.
There is no wonder of Shen Shuang.
There are no hospital rooms anywhere.
Zhou Wu looked at Zhu Jin's eyes, which dimmed instantly, and felt a mix of bitterness and resentment in her heart.
She took a deep breath, her tone almost cruel: "Don't bother looking. After you fainted, she just made a call for an ambulance, notified me, and then drove away."
“She wasn’t even worried about anything happening to you lying there.”
Zhou Wu leaned down, approached Zhu Jin, and looked at his pale and dazed face.
"Zhu Jin, haven't you seen it yet? She doesn't care about you at all, not even a little bit."
"Even if you die in front of her, she probably won't even glance at you. Wake up!"
Zhu Jin stared at the pale ceiling and slowly curled his lips into a smile.
His voice was soft, yet resolute: "It's alright."
Zhou Wu was stunned: "What!"
It's okay if she doesn't care.
Zhu Jin slowly turned his head to look at Zhou Wu, a hint of obsession surging in his unfathomable black eyes.
“I will make Zhao Mobai lose everything. I will take everything from him, and then she will know who is the one who can give her everything.”
His voice gradually turned frantic: "If she still refuses to come back to me after that..."
Zhu Jin paused, a self-deprecating smile appearing on his lips, but his eyes shone with an astonishing light.
“Then I will go and beg her. If she insists on going with Zhao Mobai, I can be her lover, as long as I can stay by her side.”
Zhou Wu gasped: "Zhu Jin! Do you know what you're saying?!"
Zhu Jin has always been proud and has a high sense of self-esteem.
He can actually talk, he can actually talk...
"I can't live without her, Zhou Wu, I really can't live without her."
Zhu Jin lowered his eyes: "No matter what, it won't work."
Zhou Wu stared wide-eyed in disbelief.
Zhu Jinlian was willing to abandon his dignity, status, and everything else.
Just for that Shen Shuangmiao?
Zhou Wu's heart ached.
She wasted two years of her youth and exhausted all her efforts for Zhu Jin, even going so far as to beg Old Madam Su to give Shen Shuangmiao a place to stay, just to make him give up on her completely.
But what about him?
How could he say something like being Shen Shuangmiao's mistress?
"Zhu Jin! You're completely insane! Hopeless!"
Zhou Wu's hand trembled as she pointed at him: "Do you know what you're saying? You're humiliating yourself! You're humiliating yourself!"
"You treat her like a treasure, but what does she treat you like? Even if you debase yourself to the point of being utterly pathetic, she won't even give you a second glance! Wake up!"
She could no longer stand being here.
If she stayed even a second longer, she feared she would lose control and rush over to kill Shen Shuangmiao.
Zhou Wu glared at Zhu Jin with heartache, then turned and rushed out of the ward in disappointment.
The door slammed shut, the sound echoing in the silent corridor.
Zhou Wu did not go home.
She drove directly to Shen Shuangmiao's studio.
She had to tell Shen Shuangmiao about Zhu Jin's current state.
She wanted to see how Shen Shuangmiao would react to these words!
late at night.
Only Shen Shuangmiao and Fu Xuan were still working overtime in the studio.
Zhou Wu barged directly into Shen Shuangmiao's office.
"Snowy Frost!"
Her voice was filled with anger.
Shen Shuangmiao looked up from the design drawing, saw Zhou Wu, and frowned slightly.
"Why are you here? Where is Zhu Jin?"
Zhou Wu walked to her desk, staring intently at her, and said, word by word, "I just came from the hospital. Do you know what Zhu Jin looks like now?"
Shen Shuangmiao paused slightly in her grip on the pen, but did not reply. She simply watched her quietly.
Seeing her calm demeanor, Zhou Wu's anger intensified.
She gritted her teeth and repeated Zhu Jin's insane words.
He said he'd make Zhao Mobai lose everything! So you'd have no choice but to go find him!
He said that even if you don't come back, he'll still be your mistress, and that he can't live without you!
"Shen Shuangmiao, did you hear that? He's abandoned all pride and dignity for you now! He's completely gone mad!"
Zhou Wu's voice trembled slightly: "I'm telling you this not so you'll pity him or anything, I just want you to know that he's extremely incoherent right now! He's capable of anything!"
"You'd better stay away from him and stop provoking him!"
As Shen Shuangmiao listened to Zhou Wu's words, the color drained from her face little by little, her fingers gripping the pen so tightly they turned white, and a chill ran through her heart.
Has Zhu Jin really gone mad?
How could he say such a thing and do such a thing...?
Shen Shuang let out a breath, having no doubt about Zhou Wu's words.
She understood Zhu Jin; he was obsessive and mad, and would not give up until he achieved his goal.
If he really holds this idea and continues to pester me relentlessly, the consequences will be unimaginable.
He will not only ruin himself, but also completely destroy her new life that has just begun.
no.
This absolutely cannot continue.
She had to leave immediately to avoid the storm and let Zhu Jin regain his senses.
Once he calms down, he might be able to figure it out.
Shen Shuangmiao suddenly stood up and began to tidy up the scattered documents and drawings on the table.
