Chapter 81 You know nothing about your wife!
Xie Jinghuai's spine stiffened, but his face remained cold and indifferent:
What's the reason?
Just then, Shen Zhantang arrived, carrying gifts for Lin Zhixin.
Han Xu glanced at Shen Zhantang, then hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't.
The man's tone was cool and indifferent. "Young Master Shen is no outsider. Just speak frankly."
"yes……"
Han Xu's voice was low and tinged with regret. "The reason my wife miscarried is because she was the first person to rush in and save the chips when an electrical fire broke out in the R&D department a little over a month ago."
"What did you say?" Xie Jinghuai's phoenix eyes widened, his breath caught in his chest.
Shen Zhantang was stunned, clearly also surprised.
He had heard about it, but he never expected it—
The one who saved the Xie Group from dire straits and did good deeds anonymously was none other than Jiang Shiyuan!
Han Xu could not hide his dejection. "After my wife saved the chip, she was choked by the thick smoke and lost consciousness. When she was taken to the hospital, she had a large area of abrasions on her arm. That's when we lost the baby."
Xie Jinghuai's tall body trembled, and cold sweat seeped from his palms.
He suddenly remembered that when Tongtong was hospitalized for asthma, he saw Jiang Shiyuan and Lin Zhixin talking in the corridor from afar.
Lin Zhixin grabbed her arm, and she suddenly turned pale and pushed Lin Zhixin away as if she had reacted instinctively.
At that time, it had only been a few days since the injury to her arm was inflicted. Her arm must have been in a lot of pain, otherwise she wouldn't have reacted so strongly.
He then remembered the day Jiang Shiyuan called him, saying she wasn't feeling well and asking him to come back.
He was with Tongtong and Lin Zhixin, enjoying a musical abroad.
So, while he was enjoying his leisure time, was his wife lying alone in the hospital, enduring the double pain of losing their child and the shadow of the fire?
Xie Jinghuai closed his reddened eyes, his large hands clenched tightly at his sides, trembling slightly.
"To be honest, it was my fault for not doing a good job. You didn't ask me to investigate thoroughly, so I was lazy and didn't investigate further."
Han Xu lowered his head, his throat tightening with guilt. "If I had been more serious back then, and done things more carefully, I could have informed you about your wife's situation sooner, and you could have shown her more concern. That day, when your wife questioned you, it wouldn't have happened."
"No... Ah Huai, I'm a little confused."
Shen Zhantang rubbed his forehead. "Your wife works for you? In the R&D department? In my memory, wasn't she an ignorant woman who knew nothing but breastfeeding? How could she get into the R&D department?"
"She's more than just an ignorant woman; she's a self-righteous, reckless fool!"
Xie Jinghuai's phoenix eyes were fierce, and his voice was as cold and hard as iron, "Who told her to be so stubborn? Who cares if she does these things? There are so many people in the R&D department, why is she the one who rushes to the front? Has anyone noticed her?!"
Han Xu was stunned; he truly hadn't expected President Xie to view his wife in this way.
The wife is clearly the heroine who saved the group's assets!
"She was irresponsible with her own life and with our children. This is the price she has to pay for her reckless behavior!"
Xie Jinghuai was panting heavily, furious.
It seems that only in this way can the guilt in his heart be transformed into anger, and then vented out through Jiang Shiyuan.
Only then can that agonizing, stifling feeling be slightly relieved.
"Ah Huai, please accept my condolences."
Shen Zhantang patted his hard shoulder and sighed, "But actually, when you think about it carefully, it's not such a bad thing. You're going to get a divorce anyway, and if she gets pregnant with your child at this critical juncture, wouldn't that just create more trouble?"
If she then uses her pregnancy to embezzle a large sum of money from you, or take half of your fortune, it's simply not worth it.
"Next time, remember to find a locker and store your foul mouth. Otherwise, don't come back to see me." Xie Jinghuai clenched his teeth, forcing out each hoarse word.
Shen Zhantang touched the back of his neck. "Why are you being so mean to me? I'm only doing this for your own good."
At this moment, his secretary rushed back to report:
"Mr. Chen, something terrible has happened! Miss Su has gone missing!"
Shen Zhantang's heart clenched, and he demanded sharply, "Such a big, living person, what do you mean 'disappeared'? Wasn't she with Mrs. Xie last night?!"
The secretary was sweating profusely. "No... I contacted Mrs. Xie later, and she said that Miss Su broke up with her last night. She's helping us make contact now."
Shen Zhantang's mood changed from resentment and anger to a vague sense of worry.
She didn't spend the entire night with Jiang Shiyuan, and didn't answer her phone or turn it on. Even when she was having a wild time before, she wouldn't act this strangely.
Shen Zhantang recalled how arrogant and domineering Xie Jinghuai was, and how he had always been powerful and influential, and how he had become sworn brothers with Xie Jinghuai, allowing him to act with impunity in the capital.
Could it be that Su Xier was targeted by some enemy who kidnapped her to take revenge on him and sold her to northern Myanmar?!
Just as I was pondering this, the secretary suddenly called out:
"Mr. Shen! Miss Su is back!"
Shen Zhantang's face was grim as he hurriedly looked towards the other side of the corridor—
Su Xier had already taken off the expensive red evening gown he had bought for her and changed into the black suit she wore for work. She walked slowly and deliberately towards them.
"Where did you go last night?" Shen Zhantang grabbed her fair wrist and pulled her sharply into his chest.
His gaze was dark and intimidating, but because Xie Jinghuai was present, he did not punish her on the spot.
Su Xier sneered and forcefully shook off Shen Zhantang's hand, the force so strong that the big man staggered.
The next second, she glared with bloodshot eyes and slapped Xie Jinghuai with all her might!
A sharp crack echoed throughout the corridor!
Xie Jinghuai swayed, and his cheek, which he turned to the side, immediately swelled up, with bright red finger marks!
Han Xu panicked, "President Xie!"
"Su Xier! Are you fucking crazy?!"
Shen Zhantang hugged her waist tightly from behind, his nose touching her snow-white neck, and a pungent smell of alcohol rushed into her nostrils. "You didn't come home all night. Did you go out drinking heavily?"
"Damn it, you skipped work while drinking and beat up my brother, are you tired of living?!"
"Yes! I'm tired of living! Go ahead and kill me if you dare!" Su Xi'er roared, her eyes bloodshot and filled with rage.
Shen Zhantang's spine stiffened, and he stared blankly into her bloodshot eyes.
He knew she was actually rebellious and untamed. He even often felt proud of himself for being able to tame such a wild horse.
But he never knew that when she got angry, she was so earth-shattering, as if she wanted to take everyone down with her, risking her life!
Xie Jinghuai's phoenix eyes were dark and terrifying. His thin lips twitched in pain as he slowly raised his hand, his fingertips fiercely wiping away the blood from the corner of his lips.
"Shen Zhantang, can't you even control your dog? Do you need me to discipline it for you?"
Several nurses were peeking over here, and Han Xu quickly went to shoo them away.
"Secretary Fu, take him away! Lock him up for ten days!" Shen Zhantang's jawline was taut, and his voice trembled with anger.
But Secretary Fu had no control over this specially trained female bodyguard. Su Xier pushed him away with a flick of her arm.
"Xie Jinghuai...you're not even human! You're a complete and utter beast!"
Su Xier rushed up to the man, veins bulging on her neck. "I know you don't love Shiyuan, but since you chose to marry her, she is your wife! I don't expect you to treat her well, but at least you should treat her like a human being and give her the most basic respect!"
In the end, marriage comes down to responsibility and conscience. Xie Jinghuai, ask yourself honestly, have you taken responsibility for Shiyuan? Do you have any conscience?!
"It seems that I spent time with Zhixin at the hospital last night, and she had quite a few complaints to you about it."
Xie Jinghuai pulled a handkerchief from his chest, wiped the blood from his fingertips, and then threw it on the ground, his eyes filled with extreme arrogance. "You say I have no conscience, but does she?"
She knew Zhixin was unwell, yet she still pushed her into the water. She should have considered the consequences before doing that.
“That’s true. Zhixin is Ah Huai’s savior. What’s wrong with Ah Huai spending time with her? Since she cares about Ah Huai so much and is so jealous, she should just behave herself as Mrs. Xie.”
Shen Zhantang looked at her with disdain, "She was the one who wronged A-Huai first, having an ambiguous relationship with Ye Yu. What is she trying to do now? Does she want both?"
At this moment, the ward door opened, and the doctor came out and said to Xie Jinghuai:
"Mr. Xie, Miss Lin has woken up, but she still feels a little uncomfortable in her heart. Please go in and check on her."
"knew."
Xie Jinghuai pressed his blood-stained lips together, turned to go inside, and Su Xier's hoarse voice rang out:
"Ha... Xie Jinghuai, you know absolutely nothing about your wife!"
