Chapter 188 One day, you will be begging me while crying.

As if stabbed in a vital spot by a sharp knife, Xie Jinghuai's powerful body, hidden beneath his suit, trembled slightly.

He suddenly pressed down on Jiang Shiyuan, grabbing her slender wrist with his large hand and pinning it against the wall, nailing it to the side of her head.

"Xie Jinghuai, what are you doing? Let me go!" Jiang Shiyuan struggled in embarrassment and anger, her breathing disordered.

However, the difference in strength between men and women was too great; she had no chance of winning.

"Jiang Shiyuan, I'm giving you and your Jiang family a chance to survive, can't you see that? Do you insist on suffering the consequences?!" Xie Jinghuai's anger was ignited by her words, his phoenix eyes filled with malice!

"Ha... what's a little hardship?"

Jiang Shiyuan stubbornly raised her head, her beautiful, red eyes showing a mixture of coldness and despair. "Is there anything more painful than being your husband for five years?"

Xie Jinghuai's hand, gripping her fair wrist, was bulging with veins that looked as if it were about to burst. His pupils, reflecting her delicate face, seemed like a ferocious beast about to break free of its cage, tear her apart, and devour her whole.

He couldn't listen anymore.

He couldn't bear to hear this woman, who had loved him for five years, say such things. He couldn't stand the sincerity, the deep affection, and the body that made him feel so good... being pulled away from him inch by inch, drifting further and further away from him.

At this moment, the luxurious, soundproof private room contained only him and her.

The tranquil setting, the rare opportunity to be alone, and the woman's trembling lips, her eyes as clear as a fawn's...

Xie Jinghuai's breathing became heavy, and his heart trembled uncontrollably, then trembled again.

He suddenly grabbed her chin, his other hand still tightly handcuffing her wrist, and fiercely sealed her lips with his kiss.

"Ugh...!" Jiang Shiyuan's eyes widened, flustered and embarrassed.

She could only move one hand, and her tightly clenched fist pounded his chest repeatedly, but she couldn't budge him at all.

Xie Jinghuai's eyes gradually became hazy as he fiercely pried open her teeth, conquering her territory.

She was his wife, his possession.

Even here, it would be perfectly natural and right for him to take her!

He kissed her passionately, entangled her, and demanded more from her.

In the past five years, he had never savored it so carefully. Now, delving into it, he unexpectedly felt comfortable, indescribable, and no one else could give him this feeling.

Jiang Shiyuan's slender neck stiffened, and her desperate struggle gradually weakened her, tears welling up in the corners of her eyes.

A tragic fate.

It's a terrible thing that even though she's already divorced this man, she still has to suffer this humiliation.

Suddenly, a regular knocking sounded on the door.

Xie Jinghuai's lust-driven gaze sharpened instantly, and Jiang Shiyuan trembled all over, cold sweat breaking out on her back.

The next second, a hotel waiter pushed open the door and entered, carrying a bottle of champagne.

"Distinguished guest, your champagne order..."

Upon seeing the embarrassing scene before him, the waiter's eyes widened, he gasped, and quickly covered his eyes, lest he look at something indecent.

"I'm so sorry! I'm new here, I went into the wrong room, I'm so sorry... I didn't see anything!"

"Get out!" Xie Jinghuai roared, his body radiating a chilling aura.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Jiang Shiyuan stomped on his foot with all her might. He frowned and subconsciously let go of her. She quickly escaped from his sight.

“Jiang Shiyuan, if you leave now, it will be tantamount to rejecting the conditions I have given you.”

Xie Jinghuai locked onto her back, his voice cold and deep, "Aren't you afraid that after dawn, I'll bankrupt Eternal?"

"Whatever." Jiang Shiyuan closed her eyes, feeling as if all her strength had been drained.

"All acts of willfulness and recklessness will come at a heavy price."

Xie Jinghuai clenched his fists, his phoenix eyes turning icy cold. "Jiang Shiyuan, one day you will come back crying and begging me to give Yongheng a way out."

...

Jiang Shiyuan walked out of the hotel entrance looking lost and dejected. Her phone rang in her pocket for a long time before she heard it.

She wiped her face, walked to a secluded corner, took a deep breath to compose herself, and then answered the call:

"Senior brother..."

However, her voice still trembled slightly.

He was so angry because of Xie Jinghuai.

"Ah Yuan, you sound a bit off. Are you alright?" Ye Yu asked with concern, his mind sharp.

Jiang Shiyuan rubbed her forehead. "It's nothing, I'm fine... Is something wrong, senior brother?"

"Here's the thing. Just half an hour ago, I received a call from a Ms. Guo. She said she was an old friend of your mother's. She had just returned to China a couple of days ago and learned about what happened at Yongheng Technology. Because she didn't have your contact information, she somehow found out about my relationship with you and contacted me through an acquaintance. She hopes to meet you tonight because she has something important to tell you."

Ye Yu's voice was filled with barely concealed excitement, "A-Yuan, you absolutely must meet this Ms. Guo tonight. Her appearance at this crucial juncture, and the fact that she went to such lengths to find you, is definitely not an attempt to kick you when you're down, but rather a gesture of help in your time of need!"

Jiang Shiyuan quickly shook off the gloom Xie Jinghuai had brought her earlier and perked up:

"Okay, senior, you and Ms. Guo agree on a place, I'll be there now!"

...

After Jiang Shiyuan left, Xie Jinghuai sat alone in the private room, chain-smoking one cigarette after another.

He stood in front of the French windows until the last cigarette burned out, then suddenly, as if all his strength had been drained, he braced his left hand against the glass.

When he recalled the hateful look in Jiang Shiyuan's eyes when he kissed her, his heart clenched, and a sharp pain shot through his head.

"Thank you, Mr. Xie."

Han Xu slowly approached him and said in a low voice, "I sent people to search the entire hotel, but we couldn't find the waiter you mentioned who barged into the private room."

Xie Jinghuai slowly opened his eyes.

“I checked the surveillance footage again, and he slipped out through the back door. I’m still sending people to track his movements.”

"No need, there's no need to waste time on such a small fry. Get the car ready."

After saying that, the man strode away.

Han Xu sighed. As long as he kept up.

The two quickly left the private room, unaware that just a wall separated them—

Fu Chenzhou sat upright in the room next door, his large, slender hands holding a wine glass that he gently swirled, his long eyelashes casting two cold shadows.
