Chapter 51 Miss Jiang's Adultery?

"President Ye?!" Guan Na gasped.

She quickly tiptoed behind a pillar, staring intently at Ye Yu's tall and straight back, as straight as a pine tree.

Why is Mr. Ye standing anxiously at the entrance of the gynecology department?

Shouldn't he see a urologist?

Could it be...?!

Guan Na realized something, and her heart pounded like a drum!

She stopped seeing a doctor and just stood there waiting to see which shameless woman had the nerve to sleep with the man she had her eye on!

Guan Na stood there for half an hour, her legs going numb, before finally seeing Jiang Shiyuan emerge from inside, looking haggard.

Damn it! It really is that slutty woman who's always looking for something better while eating what's in her bowl!

Suddenly, Jiang Shiyuan swayed weakly. Ye Yu immediately took off his suit jacket and draped it over her shoulders, then gently wrapped his long arm around her lower back.

Such thoughtfulness, caution, and meticulous care.

He is completely different from the serious and stern elite leader he usually is in the law firm!

Guan Na's eyes blazed with fury; intense jealousy contorted her face, and she almost ground her teeth to powder.

"You're having an affair, aren't you? Someone can take care of this crooked branch of yours!"

She peeked around and secretly took several photos and recorded a video, then sent all of these to Lin Zhixin.

This way.

Lin Zhixin's car happened to be parked in the underground parking lot of the hospital where the old lady was staying.

She opened WeChat, scrolling through the photos one by one, humming a smug little tune.

A wicked smile appeared on her beautiful, pure face, like a beautiful snake flicking its cold tongue in the dark.

*

On the third day of the IV drip, Jiang Shiyuan's health improved somewhat. She insisted on refusing Ye Yu's offer to accompany her and took a taxi to the hospital alone for her injection.

As soon as she finished tying her hair up, she wrapped her sweater and coat tighter around herself, preparing to take a short nap.

But then she heard the sound of cold, hard leather footsteps stopping in front of her.

Jiang Shiyuan squinted wearily, her gaze sweeping from bottom to top, finally settling on the man's expressionless, hard-lined face.

Her gaze paused, and her heart sank.

He is Madam Xie's bodyguard and special assistant, Qin Zhao.

"Assistant Qin, is there anything I can help you with?" Jiang Shiyuan braced her arms on the chair and sat up straight, her body still feeling a bit cold.

She didn't ask Qin Zhao how he found her, but she had a vague sense of unease.

"Young Madam, Madam Xie sent me to pick you up so you can see her." Qin Zhao glanced at her indifferently.

"Now?"

Yes, now.

Jiang Shiyuan breathed weakly, a layer of sweat on her forehead. "Can you wait until I'm finished?"

"The old lady is here too, so please don't keep the two elders waiting too long."

She knew he wasn't giving her a friendly look, and she knew that going to see Madam Xie wouldn't bring any good news, but she was really worried about her grandmother.

So, forcing himself to stay awake, he ripped the needle out of his hand and stood up unsteadily:

"Okay, I'll go back with you."

...

Qin Zhao drove Jiang Shiyuan directly to the Xie family's old house.

As soon as she entered the room, she sensed that something was off, that undercurrents were brewing.

The old lady sat on the sofa with a blanket over her knees. Although she seemed to be fine, her complexion was still very poor, and she had lost a lot of weight.

For elderly people of this age, getting sick is like shedding a layer of skin.

Jiang Shiyuan looked at her grandmother, her eyes welling up with tears; she was truly heartbroken.

The children were not present today. To the left of the old lady sat Madam Xie, and to the right sat Xie Yuexi and Song Xiewen, Xie's son-in-law who had not been seen for a long time.

Xie Jinghuai was nowhere to be seen.

Jiang Shiyuan lowered her eyes slightly.

She wasn't curious about where he went; after all, in her heart, she and Xie Jinghuai were no longer husband and wife.

"Ah Yuan, you've come." The old lady's voice trembled as she gave her a kind smile.

Jiang Shiyuan's nose tingled with emotion. "Grandma, I'm late. How are you feeling?"

The old lady smiled warmly, her voice tinged with reproach, "I'm much better now, I'm alright. My dear girl, why did it take you so long to come see me? Grandma missed you so much."

"Heh...Mom, you don't know, Shi Yuan is very busy right now, how could he have time to visit you?" Madam Xie said with a cold smile on her red lips.

Jiang Shiyuan was puzzled, but her expression remained aloof.

"I heard your sister-in-law works at the Xie Group, how come she's still so busy?"

Song Xiewen put his arm around Xie Yuexi's shoulder, always with a smile on his face. "Jing Huai is the president of Xie's Group. He can decide anything with just a word. How could he bear to let his wife work so hard?"

"Then you don't know, do you? Shi Yuan has already resigned from Xie's company."

Xie Yuexi turned around and shook off her husband's hand, clearly expressing her dissatisfaction with Song Xiewen calling Jiang Shiyuan "sister-in-law" through her actions. "Shiyuan is ambitious, and many industry elites and top students from prestigious universities are scrambling to get a job at Xie's company."

Shi Yuan is an exception; he actually smashed his own golden rice bowl. I don't know if he's too arrogant, or if he looks down on the preferential treatment the Xie family has given him.

Song Xiewen raised an eyebrow and left the group chat.

The Xie family is definitely dominated by women, and where there are many women, there are bound to be constant troubles. He felt sorry for Xie Jinghuai.

"What? Ah Yuan, you really resigned from Xie's?"

The old lady was taken aback. "Wasn't everything going perfectly before? How could it suddenly..."

Madam Xie scoffed disdainfully, "Because Miss Jiang is not content with being alone, she has climbed to a new high branch, so naturally she looks down on our Xie family."

"What high branch are you trying to climb?"

Xie Jinghuai strode into the living room, his handsome and sculpted features cold and aloof, always giving people a strong sense of distance, as if no one could get close to him.

Apart from Lin Zhixin.

At this moment, Lin Zhixin obediently followed behind him, as if she were parasitizing Xie Jinghuai, and the two were always inseparable.

Seeing their intimate, husband-and-wife-like interaction, Jiang Shiyuan straightened her back and indifferently withdrew her gaze.

No wonder everyone else was there except Xie Jinghuai.

It turned out he was going to pick up his sweetheart.

"A-Yuan?" Xie Jinghuai's handsome face froze, and his restless emotions were revealed in his eyes.

A cold sneer appeared on Jiang Shiyuan's lips.

He naturally resented her, resenting her for arriving at such an inopportune time, colliding with his beloved and putting him in a dilemma.

Even time management masters make mistakes.

"Brother! Zhixin! You've finally arrived! We've been waiting for you for ages!" Xie Yuexi greeted them affectionately.

It's as if Lin Zhixin is her rightful sister-in-law.

"Sorry, Jinghuai and I went to buy some of Grandma's favorite snacks, so we were a little late."

Lin Zhixin looked delighted. "Sister, you're here! We finally have a chance to get together. This is wonderful!"

"Now that your whole family is here, I won't bother you any longer. I'll take my leave now." Jiang Shiyuan ignored Lin Zhixin's insincere attentiveness and turned to leave.

Xie Jinghuai's face instantly darkened.

"Stop right there!"

Madam Xie pointed her crimson finger at Jiang Shiyuan's unyielding back, "Don't you have any manners in front of your grandmother? You come and go as you please, what do you take our Xie family for?!"

Just as Jiang Shiyuan took a step, Xie Jinghuai's tall and strong body flashed and stood firmly in front of her, casting a heavy shadow over her.

"Mom, what did you mean by 'climbing the social ladder' just now?" He spoke slowly, but his gaze towards Jiang Shiyuan was like an abyss, as if he wanted to swallow her whole.

"Qin Zhao, bring it out!" Madam Xie said sternly.

Qin Zhao stepped forward respectfully and handed her a brown paper envelope.

"Mom, I was a thousand times unwilling to let this girl into the family when you insisted on it, but as your daughter-in-law, I dared not go against your decision. But now, I have to say, you were wise all your life, but you made a foolish mistake this time!"

As she spoke, Madam Xie pulled out the photo from the envelope and slammed it hard onto the coffee table.

In an instant, the photos scattered and came into view.

"Jinghuai, if your mother hadn't been on guard, you don't know how long you would have been fooled by this pretentious woman!"
