"Yuxuan, how could you treat me like this for her sake? You even said you had nothing to do with her. Your aunt and uncle know about this..."

Qian Xinman burst into tears, feeling deeply wronged.

"Shut up and get out!" Zhou Yuxuan couldn't stand Qian Xinman's harassment any longer, so he interrupted her and told her to get lost.

"Is it because that vixen seduced you? What sister-in-law? That's just an excuse you made to lie to me, it's all an excuse!"

Qian Xinman completely broke down, screaming and yelling. At this moment, she was like a shrew abandoned by her husband, with no semblance of dignity.

Jian Yixue, who had been watching the show from the sidelines, stepped forward and slapped Qian Xinman without hesitation when she heard her words. Her eyes were as calm as if she were looking at a dead object.

"If your parents can't teach you well, I'll do it for them."

"You dare hit me, you vixen! You dare to do it but not admit it? If you're so capable of seducing people, then don't pretend to be a virtuous woman while actually being a prostitute..."

Qian Xinman lunged at Jian Yixue aggressively, using both hands and feet to try and outdo her.

But how could she possibly be a match for Jian Yixue? In no time at all, Jian Yixue had her completely under her thumb.

"Shall we continue?"

"Let me go, you vixen..." Qian Xinman struggled and cursed.

Seeing Qian Xinman acting like a shrew, Zhou Yuxuan's face grew increasingly gloomy and terrifying.

This matter started because of him, so it's best for him to end it. He walked over to Jian Yixue and said, "Sister-in-law, let me do it. Don't get your hands dirty!"

Upon hearing this, Jian Yixue shook off Qian Xinman's hand, "You're not even worthy of my hands, I find you disgusting!"

After speaking, he took a few steps back, picked up a tissue from the table to wipe his hands, threw the tissue into the trash can, and then stood aside to watch from the sidelines.

Qian Xinman lay disheveled on the ground. When Jian Yixue shook off her hand, she had intended to scratch Jian Yixue's face. She believed it was Jian Yixue's face that had seduced Yu Xuan, and that ruining it would make Yu Xuan despise Jian Yixue. In her heart, she still believed that Jian Yixue's arrival was what caused Zhou Yu Xuan to dislike her.

Just as she was about to touch Jian Yixue's face, Jian Yixue grabbed her hand. The disparity in strength caused her to lose her balance and fall to the ground when Jian Yixue shook off her hand.

Zhou Yuxuan walked to Qian Xinman's side, his face as gloomy as a dark cloud, vaguely revealing his disgust.

"I gave you face and you didn't appreciate it, so don't blame me for disregarding our years of working together. From today onwards, you are officially dismissed from the research institute. Also, you have ruined my sister-in-law's reputation. Go apologize to her until she forgives you, otherwise tomorrow everyone in the capital will know that the Qian family's daughter is having an affair and has no shame."

Qian Xinman's hands, which were supporting her body, went limp after hearing Zhou Yuxuan's words. She sat down on the ground, her eyes filled with disbelief.

"Yu Xuan, how could you do this to me? You know how I feel about you..."

"Your feelings for me are just about having sex with someone in a hotel and then coming to me and saying you love me? Qian Xinman, don't tarnish such noble feelings. You don't deserve it."

Qian Xinman turned pale and didn't know how to explain herself for a moment.

She had no idea that Zhou Yuxuan knew so much about her private life, but she had only met with others because he disliked her, so how could he blame her?

"Yu Xuan, I really love you. Those people came to me. Please be with me, I promise I'll never see them again. Please don't send me away, Yu Xuan..."

Hearing Qian Xinman's words, Jian Yixue's worldview was shattered.

What?! How could Qian Xinman think that Zhou Yuxuan would accept someone who is unfaithful in relationships and has a chaotic private life?

Although she didn't know much about Zhou Yuxuan's private life in her previous life, she had never heard of Zhou Yuxuan getting married.

"Shut up! I find people like you disgusting."

"Go apologize now! Do you really want tomorrow's headlines in the capital to be all about your scandalous affairs, Qian Xinman?!"

Zhou Yuxuan's face was incredibly ugly, and his expression of disgust became increasingly obvious.

Qian Xinman looked pale and glanced at Jian Yixue with resentment. It was all Jian Yixue's fault, and now she had to apologize to her. It was an utter disgrace!

But she was helpless; she believed that with Zhou Yuxuan's strength, he could definitely destroy her.

She was very reluctant to give up on Zhou Yuxuan, but she didn't dare to gamble with her future; she couldn't afford to!

Qian Xinman got up from the ground, walked up to Jian Yixue, and apologized with a reluctant expression.

"sorry."

Jian Yixue remained unmoved, not even giving her a glance.

After receiving no response for a while, Qian Xinman looked up at Jian Yixue. Seeing that Jian Yixue ignored her, she was furious, but there was nothing she could do about it.

She looked pleadingly at Zhou Yuxuan, who calmly replied, "Until she forgives you."

Seeing that her pleas for help were hopeless, Qian Xinman could no longer hide her anger and looked at Jian Yixue with burning fury: "What exactly do you want!"

"I don't want anything in particular, I just want to see Miss Qian's scandalous news spread all over the country tomorrow."

Jian Yixue wore an innocent expression, but said things that made Qian Xinman furious and helpless.

"What...what do you want from me to let me go?" Qian Xinman was so angry with Jian Yixue that she almost lost her mind, but she swallowed her words when she remembered the consequences of doing whatever she wanted.

Jian Yixue looked coldly at Qian Xinman in front of her, took out her phone, started recording a video, and said coldly, "Shout out loud three times in front of the camera, 'You are a vixen, a vixen who likes to seduce people.', and I will let you go for Yuxuan's sake."

A hint of panic flashed across Qian Xinman's face as she strongly resisted Jian Yixue's request. If her words were recorded today, Jian Yixue would have leverage over her in the future, and she would be blackmailed by Jian Yixue in whatever she did.

She glanced at Zhou Yuxuan beside her, but when Zhou Yuxuan saw her looking over, he turned his head away and ignored her.

Qian Xinman was heartbroken and had no choice but to agree to Jian Yixue's request.

"I am a fox spirit, a fox spirit who specializes in seducing people."

He said it three times in a row.

After saying that, she ran out looking aggrieved.

After Qian Xinman left, the laboratory returned to silence.

Jian Yixue put away her phone and walked to the side to put the pills away to prevent them from losing their effectiveness.

Seeing her busy, Zhou Yuxuan stepped forward to help clean up the used equipment: "I'm sorry, sister-in-law, I've caused you to suffer because of me time and time again."

"It's alright, everyone has a dark past. Don't worry, I won't tell anyone," Jian Yixue joked.

Zhou Yuxuan was completely bewildered by Jian Yixue's words. What was all this about?

When did I have any relationship with Qian Xinman?

What dark history is there?

"Sister-in-law, are you misunderstanding something?"

"Huh? Really? Isn't that true?"

Jian Yixue asked, feigning ignorance.
