Han Meiyue was thrown heavily and fell again, which made her furious.

Who is this woman? What gives her the right to order them around? What right does she have to talk to them?!

Now, the first person she hates is Ji Zheng, and the second person she hates is that damned woman.

We'll deal with Ji Zheng after we've ruined her!

Han Meiyue clenched her fingers and said sarcastically, "Who is this person? She even dares to order President Fu around, isn't that too arrogant? Don't you all think so?"

First, they ruined her reputation in the high society circles of the capital, then they found someone to destroy her innocence.

Han Meiyue frequently used this trick and had never failed, especially since she also had a sacred object in her possession.

Ha! Fight her?

That vile woman is just waiting to die a horrible death!

The others exchanged glances and echoed her words.

"Miss Han is right, that young lady was very rude."

"I've never seen her before; I guess she's someone raised by some small, insignificant family."

"Tch~ You ignorant little brat."

"Tsk tsk, daring to order President Fu around? Does she have a death wish? Who gave her the guts?"

Fu Jingyao's face darkened. "Naturally, it was I who gave you the courage."

Everyone gasped and immediately shut up.

Holy crap! What does Mr. Fu mean?

It sounds like he and that woman are quite familiar?

Did they run into a brick wall today?

Han Meiyue's anger surged wildly.

Damn it! That slut has hooked up with President Fu, who is the head of the Fu Group!

Han Meiyue was filled with resentment. Why did the people she hated have such good luck, while she was so unlucky to be born as an illegitimate child?

Die! Both of them, die!

Han Meiyue suppressed her anger with all her might, forcing a stiff smile, her tone sour.

“President Fu, no matter what kind of relationship you had with her, she shouldn’t have ordered you around. It’s extremely disrespectful.”

Fu Jingyao straightened his cuffs, looking at her with a half-smile, "My wife is talking to me, do you have a problem with that?"

Mrs!!

Everyone stared in disbelief, their mouths agape and their eyes wide as saucers.

Good grief, we've really hit a brick wall today.

I'd never heard of Mr. Fu having a girlfriend; he's actually married!

Han Meiyue broke through the defense directly.

Aaaaaah!!!

She thought the woman was a mistress she was keeping secret, but it turned out she was the wife.

Everyone realized what was happening and gave an awkward laugh.

"Haha, I was blind and didn't recognize your wife. Congratulations on your marriage, Mr. Fu."

"Mr. Fu, I wish you and your wife a long and happy marriage."

"Mr. Fu, you are very magnanimous. I apologize to you."

One after another, they raised their glasses and downed them in one gulp.

Fu Jingyao stood there expressionless, glancing indifferently at everyone.

The crowd panicked a little, but continued to say auspicious words.

Ji Heng was secretly pleased. He thought, "You're all doomed after messing with this guy. At least someone understands my feelings."

Han Meiyue lowered her eyelids. Her plan was just one step away from failure, and she couldn't afford to fail like this. There wouldn't be another good opportunity like this.

"President Fu, Ji Zheng is waiting for us upstairs."

She had just taken a step forward when Fu Jingyao spoke coldly, "Didn't you hear what my wife said?"

Han Meiyue's face froze. "President Fu, I heard you clearly, but your wife ran up alone, Ji Zheng..."

Fu Jingyao slowly parted his lips and said, "I'll repeat myself, no one is allowed to move. Everyone stay here and wait for my wife to come down."

"Anyone who goes upstairs without permission is going against me!"

Ji Heng weakly added, "Whoever goes up... will also be going against the Ji family."

With his older sister gone, he represents the Ji family. Anyway, following his brother and the big boss is always the right thing to do.

Everyone stood frozen in place. Was it that serious?

They understood the implication: the Fu, Ji, and Han families were destined to be irreconcilable enemies.

Tsk! I wonder what Han Meiyue did to offend both the Fu and Ji families at the same time. Now the Han family can no longer survive in the capital.

After returning home, quickly sever ties with the Han family to avoid being implicated.

Han Meiyue was driven mad with jealousy.

The dignified president of the Fu Group actually listens to a woman.

She hated it so much, hated that this person wasn't her.

...

Lin Xi ran up to the second floor, and a faint smell of blood wafted into her nose.

She didn't even need to figure out Ji Zheng's location; she simply followed the smell of blood to the room.

The smell of blood grew stronger, and a pool of blood seeped out from under the door.

With that amount of bleeding, the person inside would be crippled even if they didn't die.

Why is there so much blood after being poisoned by a love potion? The two of them should...

Lin Xi kicked the door panel away, revealing a horrific scene inside.

Both men were lying on the ground; the man had three holes in his stomach and was covered in blood.

The woman was breathing weakly and groaning continuously.

A loud bang was heard, and Ji Zheng slowly raised her head. When she saw who it was, her eyes lit up with hope.

She shouted with all her might, "Master, please save Chu Ling..."

Lin Xi placed her finger on Chu Ling's philtrum and checked his breath.

Thankfully, he had only one breath left.

She took out silver needles from her small bag and quickly inserted three needles into Chu Ling to protect his heart meridian.

They also infused his wound with some spiritual energy to accelerate blood clotting and prevent him from dying from excessive blood loss.

After Lin Xi finished doing all this, she helped Ji Zheng up.

Ji Zheng was already delirious, repeatedly saying two words, "No, don't..."

Her body was burning hot, and her face was completely flushed.

Lin Xi understood instantly.

Han Meiyue cast a love potion on Ji Zheng and Chu Ling, locked them in the same room, and then brought people upstairs.

This love potion is somewhat similar to that kind of drug; two people under its influence are irresistibly drawn to each other, and can only be neutralized through sexual intercourse.

As a result, Chu Ling chose to commit suicide rather than harm Ji Zheng, allowing Han Meiyue's scheme to succeed.

Lin Xi sighed, used the Three Mind Needles to suppress the Gu worms, and then ran back to Chu Ling's side to suppress the Gu worms in his body in the same way.

Ji Zheng took a deep breath, and the restlessness in her body calmed down; the hot flashes were gradually disappearing.

Chu Ling frowned, his breathing becoming increasingly steady.

After a while, Ji Zheng felt she could move again. She crawled forward step by step, tears streaming down her face.

"Chu Ling, Chu Ling... don't die... I command you to wake up..."

Chu Ling slowly opened her eyes, her voice extremely weak.

"Miss, I'm alright... I'm still alive..."
