Chapter 295 Kidnapped
Jiang Ruomi stayed in the presidential suite, which was on the top floor of the hotel and offered a high degree of privacy.
Shen Qingshu knocked on the door, and it opened quickly.
Inside the door, Jiang Ruomi wore a beige dress, her delicate face was plain, and her lips were slightly pale.
"Sister Qingshu, thank you for coming to see me." Jiang Ruomi's voice was trembling with tears as she spoke.
As a woman myself, Shen Qingshu could tell that Jiang Ruomi was not in a good state right now.
She walked into the room, and Jiang Ruomi closed the door behind her.
"Sister Qingshu, what would you like to drink? We have coffee, tea, or juice..."
"Ruomi, I'm not here to reminisce or chat," Shen Qingshu interrupted Jiang Ruomi, looking at her and saying, "Just say what you want to say."
Jiang Ruomi looked at Shen Qingshu, her eyes reddening.
"Qingshu, are you disappointed in me?"
“There’s no point in asking this now.” Shen Qingshu looked at her. “Ruomi, your achievements are hard-won, but today you’re willing to gamble your acting career for so-called love. As your boss or friend, I strongly disapprove of that.”
“But I love him…” Jiang Ruomi choked up, “Sister Qingshu, I can’t control myself. When I found out I was pregnant with Jin Que’s child, I couldn’t rationally tell myself that it was all just an accident and that this child’s appearance must have come with some kind of mission. I cherish him and I need him!”
Shen Qingshu had a headache from listening to this.
"Ruomi, since you're so sure you need this child, you can just be honest with me instead of waiting for the paparazzi to expose it, putting me, Huanxing, and the whole team in a passive position."
"I'm sorry, I thought I could handle this myself, I didn't expect paparazzi to take pictures."
Shen Qingshu raised her hand and pressed her temples.
"Ruomi, you're thinking too simply. If you and Jin Que were truly in love, then I have nothing to say. But your relationship with Jin Que was just an accident, and you even signed a three-year contract. This is tantamount to a peddling transaction with a price tag. What good does it do you?"
Jiang Ruomi smiled bitterly: "I don't ask for too much, I just want to have a child that belongs to me and Jin Que."
Shen Qingshu looked at her.
The once clear-headed and competitive girl is now caught in the web of love.
Although Jiang Ruomi said she didn't ask for too much, she actually had high expectations for Jin Que.
But fearing she would lose completely in the end, Jiang Ruomi met with her to try and secure a way out for herself.
However, Shen Qingshu would not gamble on an irrational person.
She was willing to lend Jiang Ruomi a hand and give her special treatment because she saw in Jiang Ruomi the spirit of a young girl who wanted to strive.
But Jiang Ruomi has lost her way.
A person trapped in a swamp will sink uncontrollably, and may even pull those who try to pull them out into the swamp due to their survival instinct.
Because of the fear of death, all I knew was that I couldn't let go.
Shen Qingshu had seen a psychologist, and she knew very well.
This is a personal project for Jiang Ruomi.
"Ruomi, I've also loved someone wholeheartedly before, and you know how it ended. So right now, I don't think your decision is good. But since you've made your decision, let's talk about work."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ruomi's face stiffened.
She knew that Shen Qingshu would not give her another chance.
"Sister Qingshu, thank you. Without you, I wouldn't have achieved what I have today."
Shen Qingshu did not respond.
Seeing this, Jiang Ruomi knew that Shen Qingshu would not make an exception for her again.
"Sister Qingshu, thank you for everything you've done during this time."
"Chi Guo'er will contact you about terminating the contract," Shen Qingshu said as she walked to the door. "Take care from now on."
After Shen Qingshu finished speaking, she opened the door.
“Sister Qingshu,” Jiang Ruomi’s voice came from behind.
Calmly and gently turn around.
Jiang Ruomi raised her hand to cover her mouth, her eyes filled with grief: "I'm sorry."
Shen Qingshu frowned, about to speak, when footsteps sounded behind her.
She had a bad feeling. The moment she turned around, her mouth and nose were covered, and a pungent smell filled the air. She fainted instantly.
...
Mo Bai waited in the hotel lobby for nearly an hour, but Shen Qingshu still didn't come down.
Realizing something was wrong, Mo Bai dialed a number: "Miss Chen doesn't seem to have come down yet."
"Let's go up and check it out right away."
Mo Bai immediately went up to find the person.
But where is Chen Qingshu now?
…
When Shen Qingshu woke up, she was in an unfamiliar room.
The room is large and decorated in a modern Chinese style.
Shen Qingshu threw off the covers and got out of bed. Just as she reached the door, it was pushed open.
Jin Que walked in from outside the door.
Shen Qingshu subconsciously took a few steps back. "Jin Que, what are you doing?"
"Ah Shu, I think the reason you don't like me is because we don't spend enough time together."
Shen Qingshu frowned: "Jin Que, was it you who asked Jiang Ruomi to invite me to the hotel?"
"Yes." Jin Que smiled, his tone still gentle. "I made a bet with her."
"What's the meaning?"
"If you're willing to give her another chance, I'll abandon this plan. But if you insist on giving her up, I'll take you away as planned."
Shen Qingshu was taken aback.
"Ah Shu, you've changed."
Jin Que stepped forward and raised his hand to touch Shen Qingshu's face, but Shen Qingshu avoided him.
The man's hand, with its distinct knuckles, froze in mid-air. He laughed, "You used to be so kind. Even when you were in trouble yourself, you would still lend a helping hand to strangers. But now you're so cruel. You didn't leave Jiang Ruomi any way out. So, she betrayed you, and you can only accept your fate."
Shen Qingshu laughed, "I'm cruel? Wasn't I good enough to Jiang Ruomi before? Jin Que, you were the one who took advantage of Jiang Ruomi's feelings for you and encouraged her to take extreme measures, yet you still want to push all the blame onto me?"
"Jiang Ruomi knows my feelings for you, but she's not jealous. She said she treats you like an older sister."
Shen Qingshu found it laughable that Jiang Ruomi had conspired with Jin Que to kidnap her.
“She treats me like an older sister, but only wants my protection.” Shen Qingshu’s voice was cold. “But I am not her older sister after all. From the moment she decided to gamble her career for love, I have only been the boss of Huanxing. All my decisions are for the sake of Huanxing.”
Jin Que looked at Shen Qingshu.
He was excited by her clarity and indifference.
This shows that she and he are becoming more and more alike!
“Ah Shu, I’m glad you think that way.” Jin Que grabbed Shen Qing Shu’s wrist, ignoring her struggles, and forcefully pulled her in front of him—
With his other hand, he gripped her chin, forcing her to look up and meet his gaze.
"Because that way, we'll be a better match."
Chen Qingshu struggled, but Jin Que was extremely strong.
The more she struggled, the more forcefully Jin Que held her.
I felt pain in my wrist and chin.
Shen Qingshu's breathing quickened as she saw, for the first time, the brutality hidden deep within Jin Que's bones beneath his gentle, jade-like face.
Fear spread rapidly in my heart.
Chen Qingshu gritted her teeth and forced herself to remain calm.
