Chapter 49 Stunning Everyone
Fu Shenyuan's face seemed devoid of any warmth, and Jiang Ranxing couldn't discern his attitude.
She heard Fu Shenyuan say something else.
"I'm telling you to drink it." The voice was extremely cold and hard.
Jiang Ranxing thought she had misheard, but Fu Shenyuan's words of confirmation seemed to plunge her into an abyss of pain.
Jiang Ranxing looked over with a hint of grievance, her voice trembling.
She said, "Can't you tell at all that I don't want to drink it...?"
Fu Shenyuan didn't make any statement or show any emotion towards her.
He seemed to be giving orders to someone who had nothing to do with him.
“It’s just a glass of wine, a favor you have to give to Ji Shiheng,” Fu Shenyuan said coldly, “and you have to give me one too. Don’t forget your place.”
What a great line: "Don't forget her identity."
How ironic.
Jiang Ranxing was heartbroken; the pain was so intense it felt like it was numbing her entire body.
Never before had she hated her identity as Mrs. Fu so much.
Jiang Ranxing stared blankly at the glass of red wine on the table for a moment, then let out a bitter laugh to himself.
She was laughing at herself, laughing at what she had gained from all her efforts.
All she got in return was something that made her feel humiliated.
But she once regarded this dedication and affection as the most precious thing in the world.
How ridiculous!
Jiang Ranxing felt that she couldn't bear the pain any longer; there was nothing more painful than this.
Ji Shiheng then picked up his wine glass, swirled it, and pushed it in front of Jiang Ranxing.
"Please, Miss Jiang."
Jiang Ranxing smiled, reached out and took the glass of red wine. The icy temperature of the wine glass was now almost piercing her heart and striking her soul.
"Okay, I'll drink, I'll drink..." Jiang Ranxing muttered to himself, raised his arm slightly, and drank the whole glass of wine.
The red wine was spicy and bitter. Jiang Ranxing felt as if she was swallowing not red wine, but poison that could kill her heart.
Jiang Ranxing wiped the red mark from the corner of her mouth with her finger and looked at Fu Shenyuan opposite her.
She said softly, "Is Mr. Fu satisfied now? Would you like to see me drink again? I can drink for you to see."
Jiang Ranxing asked the question as if she were torturing herself. At this moment, she just wanted to know how cruel Fu Shenyuan was to her.
A faint, undying fantasy lingered in Jiang Ranxing's heart.
She fantasized that Fu Shenyuan would show her some mercy, even just a little, so that her heart wouldn't continue to ache so much.
She also fantasized that Fu Shenyuan would give her a quick death.
However, at this moment, Fu Shenyuan did not look at Jiang Ranxing.
Fu Shenyuan picked out the best piece of cod from the plate in front of him and gently placed it on Lin Xuesha's plate.
Lin Xuesha picked up a piece of food, put it in her mouth and savored it, then smiled happily and leaned on Fu Shenyuan's shoulder.
The sight of the two people being so happy was so blinding, it deeply pierced Jiang Ranxing's heart.
Fu Shenyuan slowly put down his chopsticks, and when he looked up at Jiang Ranxing, his gaze was already cold and devoid of warmth.
Fu Shenyuan spoke like Satan from hell, "Since President Ji wants to see it, then you should drink it."
Ji Shiheng smiled wickedly and poured Jiang Ranxing another cup.
After Jiang Ranxing looked at the glass of red wine that had reappeared in front of her, she suddenly couldn't hear the sounds around her anymore.
Jiang Ranxing could no longer hear any of the voices mocking her or any other voices of sympathy.
She only heard the sound of her heart slowly shattering, piece by piece, bleeding profusely, causing her unbearable pain.
Jiang Ranxing closed her eyes and tears silently streamed down her face.
After a while, Jiang Ranxing picked up the glass of wine and gulped it down. Then, to everyone's surprise, Jiang Ranxing took the wine bottle from Ji Shiheng's hand.
"What is she going to do?! Aaaaaaah!"
Someone screamed, and everyone looked in Jiang Ranxing's direction.
All they saw was Jiang Ranxing pick up the wine bottle, hold it to the bottle opening, and pour the extremely strong red wine directly into his mouth.
Everyone was so shocked they didn't know what to say. Even Fu Yuqi, who was watching the commotion from the sidelines, was surprised and couldn't utter a single sarcastic remark.
"Has Jiang Ranxing gone mad? Shen Yuan..."
Fu Yuqi leaned towards Fu Shenyuan and said.
Fu Shenyuan was also stunned; he had never seen Jiang Ranxing like this before.
In his memory, Jiang Ranxing had always been gentle, kind and humble, and would never do anything out of line in front of him.
This somewhat crazy and alluring Jiang Ranxing was someone he had never seen before.
As Jiang Ranxing suddenly raised the glass and gulped it down, some of the red wine leaked from her red lips.
The red wine flowed down Jiang Ranxing's chin and neck, until it seeped into the red dress on her chest, like a red rope wrapped around her body.
At this moment, Jiang Ranxing was like a fallen evil angel who had emerged from hell, both alluring and carrying a deadly poison.
She was like a dazzling red rose in full bloom, covered in thorns, yet possessing an irresistible allure.
Jiang Ranxing put the wine bottle back into Ji Shiheng's hand. She stood up unsteadily and looked at the people around her.
Finally, Jiang Ranxing turned her gaze to Fu Shenyuan.
She spoke as if she were exhausted, her eyes still fixed on Fu Shenyuan, "President Fu, President Ji, how was it? Was my performance appropriate for my status? Are you satisfied?"
Fu Shenyuan said quietly, "You..."
Fu Shenyuan did not speak again after that.
Jiang Ranxing gave a self-deprecating laugh, a numb, heart-wrenching feeling washing over her, and then looked away.
Jiang Ranxing swayed and slowly walked towards the exit. Ji Shiheng, who had just been amazed by her beauty, came over to stop her.
"Miss Jiang, how about I take you home?"
Jiang Ranxing's words just now had really piqued Ji Shiheng's interest.
This woman looks gentle and harmless; she's definitely not the type he'd be interested in taking home.
But when Jiang Ranxing was drinking, his drive and allure were impossible for him to ignore.
That's too hot! This woman is definitely going to be a ruthless rose with thorns.
Jiang Ranxing merely glanced at Ji Shiheng indifferently, showing no inclination to accept his invitation.
"President Ji, why don't you stay and continue drinking?" Jiang Ranxing shook his head. "Someone of my status shouldn't be seen off by President Ji."
Jiang Ranxing swallowed the bitterness in her heart. Having just had such an incident with Fu Shenyuan, she had no mood to pay attention to anyone else.
Moreover, she not only felt bitter in her heart, but also felt as if her internal organs, limbs, and especially her lower abdomen were being boiled in oil, experiencing immense physical pain.
Jiang Ranxing felt exhausted. Suddenly, she had a thought: she would lie down on the ground, ignore everyone, and just fall asleep.
She didn't want to care about anything anymore; she was too tired and just wanted to rest.
Gradually, Jiang Ranxing lost all sense of sound around him.
She thought she heard a man's voice.
There seemed to be a hint of anxiety in his tone.
"Quick! She's fainted! Call an ambulance!"
