The luxurious villa was a mess; everything was smashed to pieces. A man and a woman stood facing each other, arguing heatedly. In the heat of the moment, Ma Wenzhu slapped Tian Yingjie hard across the handsome face.
"Tian Yingjie, how could you treat me like this for this woman?" Ma Wenzhu's eyes were red, she was panting heavily, and her whole body was trembling with anger. Because he controlled the Tian family's finances, no matter how much trouble Tian Yingjie caused outside, he never caused trouble in front of him. He was very kind to her, so she turned a blind eye to his philandering.
Having always been pampered by others, how could she tolerate the man she had always suppressed rising up in rebellion? Ma Wenzhu felt a surge of anger burning through every cell in her body, and her mentality exploded.
Upon hearing this, Tian Yingjie hesitated, his teeth aching. The pressure from Ma Wenzhu was simply too great, unwavering for over a decade, and he instinctively wanted to beg for mercy. He had just opened his mouth, before he could utter a single syllable, when a soft touch stimulated his arm, and he instinctively looked at Ma Zhelan.
Although she had been harassed and her hair was disheveled, Ma Zhelan's tearful and pitiful appearance still aroused a strong protective instinct in men. Confident in her looks, she called out "brother-in-law" in a low, husky voice, then stared intently at Tian Yingjie with her eyes that seemed to hold unspoken words.
A current seemed to surge through his body, and Tian Yingjie's eyes gradually became unfocused, his mind became dazed, and all his attention was drawn to it.
"Tian Yingjie—" Ma Wenzhu was furious. These two adulterers dared to be so affectionate in front of her, completely disregarding her. She couldn't tolerate it at all.
Along with this came a deep, lingering panic, a sense of helplessness at losing control of everything. And he could only use anger and a distorted expression to mask his inner unease.
Compared to Ma Wenzhu's hysteria, Tian Yingjie was much more indifferent. She simply stared intently at Ma Zhelan with her affectionate eyes, her gaze focused and deep.
"Brother-in-law, my sister looks so scary! You have to protect me, or we might never see each other again." Ma Zhelan's eyes flashed with undisguised laughter as she smugly cast a mocking glance at Ma Wenzhu, clutching her chest and leaning weakly on Tian Yingjie's shoulder.
He knew he was irresistibly charming, and the other man was so infatuated that he had long forgotten his wife at home. In the end, it was Ma Zelan who won.
"Ze Lan, don't worry, I will definitely give you a proper status and I won't let anyone bully you." Tian Yingjie said affectionately, his face almost dripping with tenderness.
In his more than thirty years of life, this was the first time he had been so infatuated with a woman, as if her soul had been bewitched by him. She couldn't bear to refuse any of his requests, and she couldn't bear to see her suffer even the slightest harm.
This is the power of the love potion. When Shi Wuyou used the love potion on Tian Yingjie, he made him obedient to him. The change in the servant did not diminish the power of the love potion.
The two men's disregard for others was seen as adultery and shamelessness by Ma Wenzhu. He was so angry that his chest heaved violently, as if only by breathing continuously could he alleviate the danger of suffocating to death. His face turned red and white.
Tian Yingjie took a deep breath, and the love potion finally overcame his deep-seated fear of Ma Wenzhu. He glared at Ma Wenzhu fiercely, his tone full of disgust and loathing, "Ma Wenzhu, let's get a divorce. Don't bother us anymore."
Upon hearing this, Ma Wenzhu was so enraged that she nearly fainted. A sweet taste rose in her throat, and she felt an urge to spit out blood on the spot, spraying it all over the faces of the adulterous couple. Especially after seeing Ma Zhelan's smug expression, Ma Wenzhu trembled all over, as if she were about to die on the spot at any moment.
For reasons unknown, after saying this, Tian Yingjie helped Ma Zhelan turn around and was about to leave, while he and his two tall bodyguards stood there like iron towers, unmoving.
"You bunch of bastards, get out of my way right now!" Tian Yingjie was annoyed that the two were ignoring him, so he shoved them hard, but he stumbled and almost fell, which made him even angrier.
The bodyguards, however, kept their eyes down and didn't even glance at Tian Yingjie. Their employer was Ma Wenzhu, so what did the others matter?
"Arrest them both." Ma Wenzhu's anger was burning, but his expression was cold. Without turning his head, he coldly ordered two tall and strong bodyguards to reach out and tightly restrain the two men. Their arms, as hard as iron, made it impossible for them to break free.
Ma Zelan never expected Ma Wenzhu to be so barbaric and impulsive, daring to forcibly arrest someone in a society governed by law. Terrified, she screamed and tried to call for help, but the bodyguard stuffed a rag into her mouth, leaving her only able to whimper, with a few drops of saline solution flowing from her eyes.
A man and a woman were dragged downstairs with their hands tied behind their backs; this scene was truly rare.
Seeing the staff member on the street, Ma Zhelan's eyes lit up with a desire for help, but the other party merely turned his head slightly away, as if he were just a wisp of air. Ma Zhelan couldn't help but lower his eyes in despair, an endless panic rising in his heart. At this moment, he truly realized the power of authority, and his mind, which had been hit by such a huge windfall, cleared up for once.
He's been caught by Ma Wenzhu, will he die? All he wants is power and status, why is it so hard? Why is it that Ma Wenzhu was born into a wealthy family and got so much, while he can only follow behind her, flattering and fawning? He finally got a chance to turn his life around, but he ended up like this? God is so unfair.
With her eyes closed, a single, cloudy tear slid down her cheek. Ma Wenzhu trembled and her head drooped. The bodyguard, thinking she was just posing, didn't pay much attention.
Ma Wenzhu walked ahead, quickly taking long strides to sit in the back seat. His sunglasses obscured his eyes, but his stern lips revealed his less-than-pleasant mood, as if he were plotting something.
Just then, a commotion arose outside. Ma Wenzhu casually took off her sunglasses and glanced out the window, a look of surprise on her face.
Tian Yingjie, who was always clean and tidy, was lying on the ground, covered in dust, convulsing uncontrollably, looking like someone having an epileptic seizure. But Ma Wenzhu, his wife of many years, clearly remembered that he had no such medical history; this was obviously abnormal.
This unexpected situation left the bodyguard stunned, unsure whether to touch her or not. He could only look up at Ma Wenzhu, completely at a loss.
"Take him to the hospital." Ma Wenzhu's slender eyebrows furrowed, her voice cold and tinged with anxiety. Even for her daughter's sake, she couldn't bring herself to kill Tian Yingjie.
Looking at the unconscious person beside her, Ma Wenzhu's eyes flashed with deep thought. What exactly happened?
