After calming down one person, Sun Jiming patiently accepted the reporter's interview, almost exhausting all his patience.

Back at the hotel, thankfully the bodyguard said that Li Xinyi did not put up any strong resistance.

I thought that if I imprisoned her, this woman would do something else, but she seems to be quite obedient.

With that thought in mind, he pushed open the door.

Li Xinyi sat upright on the sofa as if nothing had happened, which relieved him.

The next second, she took the child back to the room. Sun Jiming suddenly felt like he was facing a formidable enemy, but he didn't care. What kind of storm could a woman stir up?

His gaze followed her back; her calm and serene demeanor made him unable to look away.

Not wanting to hear her bring up divorce, Sun Jiming spoke up before she could, saying, "You've seen the news, haven't you? I told you I'll handle things, and the position of Mrs. Sun will always be yours."

A tone of charity and consolation is repulsive.

"Sun Jiming, how dare you! Do you really think I care about being Mrs. Sun?"

"Isn't that right?" he scoffed. "Back then, you were the one who actively wanted to be with me, weren't you, Mrs. Sun!"

He emphasized the last three words.

Under these circumstances, Li Xinyi actually wanted to laugh; she was certain that she had been blind back then.

"You were just young and naive. I should have listened to my father. I should have divorced you on Xiaohui's first birthday. Since so many people want to be Mrs. Sun, let them be Mrs. Sun all they want!"

Her attitude was firm. When Li Zhi was mentioned, Sun Jiming recalled how Li Zhi had opposed his pursuit of her.

He felt that it was a kind of contempt and disdain. Even though Li Zhi had helped him get to this position over the years, he still looked down on him.

He became furious and grabbed Li Xinyi by the neck.

His slender neck was like a thin rope in his hand; with a little force, he could grasp it tightly and tighten his grip.

"Do you want to die?"

Li Xinyi raised the corners of her mouth, "Are you willing to give that up? I'm afraid you're reluctant to give up my father's support, aren't you? You've gone to great lengths to please me and Xiaohui, but it's just to salvage your image. Let me tell you, you won't succeed. Doing this will only make you look more ridiculous..."

He tightened his grip, and Li Xinyi was completely unable to speak, her face turning blue and purple.

Her words only reminded Sun Jiming of how he used to fawn over others when he was a junior clerk.

Unbearable.

Li Xinyi painfully scratched his hand, drawing blood with her grip, before he finally released his grip.

A large amount of air rushed into her nostrils, causing Li Xinyi to sit on the ground and cough violently.

"Let me tell you, neither you nor Sun Hui are going anywhere without my permission."

At that moment, Sun Hui, who was inside the house, heard her mother coughing uncomfortably and ran out.

He buried his head in her arms.

Seeing her flushed face and the red marks on her neck from being strangled, Sun Hui burst into tears.

He put his arms around Li Xinyi.

The man above felt a pang of disgust as he looked at the mother and daughter's tender moment on the ground.

He had an idea.

He clapped his hands, and two bodyguards came in from outside.

"Separate them." The cold command reached the bodyguards' ears, and they immediately carried it out.

Li Xinyi tightened her grip, holding her daughter close. "What are you doing?!"

"Sun Jiming, if you dare touch Xiao Hui, I will really die with you!"

The calm I had just felt vanished, replaced by a fear even greater than the near-suffocation I had experienced.

The mother and daughter were forcibly separated, and Sun Hui cried even louder.

Sun Jiming pulled her up from the ground with one hand and dragged her into the bathroom.

She turned on the shower and the icy water poured over her head, making her struggle in a disheveled state.

The woman who had fallen to the ground was trying to run away.

"Since you want to take her away, then let me tell you, forget about it. Unless I bring it up myself, you'll never get a divorce in this lifetime! Just stay here and calm down."

The door closed and locked in one fluid motion.

The bathroom door was heavy, and she slammed it shut with a dull thud.

Even the cracks in the door were blocked by an expensive carpet, and her screams were locked inside the bathroom along with her.

In her haste, Sun Hui bit the bodyguard who was grabbing her.

Although annoyed, the bodyguard knew who was in front of him and let her slip to the bathroom door.

Sun Hui clapped her little hands, but her voice was almost drowned out by her sharp cries.

Li Xinyi comforted her through the door, "Don't be afraid, Mom will take you out soon..."

Hearing her child cry, she felt a heart-wrenching pain.

She should have realized that this man had no heart at all.

She made the wrong bet.

Sun Jiming watched for a while, then grew impatient and gave him a wink.

The bodyguard immediately understood, stepped forward, picked up the crying child, took him to a room, and locked him up.

Compared to the disheveled state of the mother and daughter, Sun Jiming's face and body were completely unharmed, and even the splashes of water did not leave any obvious marks on his dark clothes.

It was as if she had just come down from a high-end banquet after meeting with guests.

Through the door, with a warning and threat, he said, "If you don't understand, then figure it out before you come out. You can stay locked up forever, but can Sun Hui do that?"

"Sun Jiming, she's your daughter too! You're insane!!!"

Li Xinyi could no longer hear her child crying, which made her even more panicked.

After the man outside finished speaking, he stood up and gave instructions to the two bodyguards.

"Keep an eye on them, make sure nothing happens. If anything goes wrong, you know the consequences."

Sun Jiming left the room.

Zheng Zhonglai was surprised that Sun Jiming would come at this time, and could only hope that he would not notice anything unusual.

Sun Xiaoxiao was called over. Usually when he came, Sun Xiaoxiao would accompany him. Unexpectedly, she had just gone in this time.

My head brushed against a glass, and my ear burned, but I still kept smiling.

Zheng Zhonglai fawned over him, picking up the things from the ground. "Boss, why are you so angry? I'll go out first, Xiaoxiao will stay here with you."

He gave him a wink, and Sun Xiaoxiao immediately stepped forward, sat down beside him, and poured him a drink.

The obedient Sun Xiaoxiao soothed his impatience from being confronted by Li Xinyi.

His gaze fell on the woman pouring the wine in front of him. This was more like it; this was how a woman should be.

He thought that his recent irritability was mostly due to women, and that he had more important things to do and shouldn't be bothered by these things.

He snatched the wine bottle from Sun Xiaoxiao's hand, pressed her down on the sofa, and leaned in on her.

In the bathroom.

Li Xinyi forced herself to calm down, but all she could hear in her mind was Sun Hui's crying.

The less she saw it with her own eyes, the more her imagination ran wild. She slammed the bathroom door a few times.

But even the bathroom door in this presidential suite was made of thick, soundproof material, so even though I bumped into it and my shoulder ached, I didn't hear a sound.

She looked around, her gaze settling on the upside-down rhomboid glass on the washstand.
