Jiang Tingzhou hadn't expected An Yunya to go to such lengths.
This made him wonder if something had really happened to the An Group.
The largest and most profitable businesses of the An Group are pharmaceuticals and medical equipment.
The most in-depth collaboration between the Jiang and An families is the use of artificial intelligence to complete some highly complex surgeries.
Both companies have invested a lot of money in this, which is why the Jiang and An families cannot break off relations.
Jiang Tingzhou escorted Xu Wan into his home and earnestly instructed her, "I can open the door myself. Don't open it for anyone who knocks."
"What's wrong with you? Are you treating me like a child?"
When Xu Wan spoke, her beautiful almond-shaped eyes curved into crescent shapes.
She hadn't heard those words for a very long time since her mother went to prison.
Jiang Tingzhou raised his hand and gently pinched the soft flesh of the woman's cheek. "You're ten years younger than me, so aren't you just a kid?"
"Okay, okay, I promise I'll be good and stay home obediently. I won't open the door for anyone, and I'll call you immediately if anything happens." After reading this, Xu Wan asked, "Are you relieved now?"
Jiang Tingzhou smiled and leaned down to kiss the woman's forehead before leaving.

St. He Hospital.
In the hospital room, Xiao Yinlan was already sobbing uncontrollably. "Daughter, please don't hurt yourself like this anymore. What's so great about Jiang Tingzhou? If you want, you can have any other man besides him. Why do you have to be with him?"
"But we were so in love! I know you're just saying I'm having memory problems to comfort me, but I know I'm not. I remember every single detail of our love. It must be because I've become ugly that he's acting like this..."
An Yunya's tears fell down her cheeks. "Please, Mom, let go of my hand, so I can turn back into my old self."
Xiao Yinlan dared not let go. She clung tightly to An Yunya's right arm, which was holding the knife. "Daughter, why can't you understand? If a man loves you, he will love you no matter what you become. If he doesn't love you, he won't love you no matter what you become!"
"No, no, my husband loves me. He said he will always love me."
Just as An Yunya finished speaking, the door to the ward opened.
Gong Yanli and Jiang Tingzhou stood at the door.
"Husband!" An Yunya cried tears of joy, saying to Xiao Yinlan, "Mom, you see, I told you my husband loves me."
When Jiang Tingzhou heard the word "husband," his brows furrowed.
Xiao Yinlan saw Jiang Tingzhou as if he were her savior and said, "Tingzhou, come and persuade Xiaoya. She insists that it's because she's gained weight that you don't want her."
Jiang Tingzhou glanced at An Yunya.
The woman had a very deep cut on her right cheek. Although the blood had clotted, it was still clear that the wound was extremely deep, with some flesh even exposed.
He walked a few steps to the woman, grabbed her right wrist that was holding the knife, and his movements were quick, ruthless, and precise.
By the time An Yunya tried to resist, the man was already preparing to take the knife away.
Even though Jiang Tingzhou moved quickly, the knife still managed to cut his tiger's mouth, and blood instantly seeped from the wound.
"sorry!"
An Yunya was so frightened that she let go.
Jiang Tingzhou threw the knife behind him and said coldly, "Miss An, whether you're acting or not, I've said what I needed to say. From now on, whether you self-harm, abuse yourself, or commit suicide, I don't care."
Xiao Yinlan immediately flew into a rage. "Jiang Tingzhou, what are you saying? Who's responsible for Xiaoya's condition today! She just had a blistered foot and was looking for a place to buy a Band-Aid when your car hit her, leaving her like this! What acting? Would she act with her face?!"
"How would I know?" Jiang Tingzhou looked at Xiao Yinlan and said in a businesslike tone, "Ms. Xiao, I don't deny that I caused the car accident, but my car was also tampered with that day, and the police have investigated it. At the same time, I also thought that if we hadn't hit Ms. An, the consequences might have been more serious, so I am willing to compensate, as long as the compensation you propose is within what I consider reasonable."
Xiao Yinlan stood there and said directly, "We don't want anything, we just want you to marry Xiaoya, even if it's a secret marriage, as long as she knows."
