Aunt Zhou seemed startled by Liang Jingyan's arrival.
He quickly jumped in to defend Shen Jing: "President Liang, Miss Shen was just acting impulsively..."
Before she could finish speaking, Liang Jingyan gave her a cold look, and she dared not say another word, only stamping her feet anxiously to the side.
Aunt Zhou anxiously gave Shen Jing a meaningful look.
It seemed to be a reminder to Shen Jing to admit her mistake and quickly apologize.
Shen Jing looked at Liang Jingyan, who was gently helping Shen Ting up, and her gaze was momentarily dazed, so much so that she didn't notice Aunt Zhou's hint at all.
Her memories returned to her past life.
Rumors were rampant at the engagement party.
Everyone says that Shen Jing stole her cousin's boyfriend.
Liang Jingyan offered no explanation, either in public or in private, and even accused her of making a mountain out of a molehill.
"Just because of some fabricated stories by the media, you resorted to suicide, making yourself a laughing stock in the eyes of the outside world!"
"joke?"
"You didn't know? You've been followed ever since you were taken to the hospital in the ambulance."
Hearing the same remarks as in her previous life, Shen Jing tilted her head and looked at them, unable to help but chuckle.
Liang Jingyan frowned, and upon glancing at her, he noticed the mocking curve at the corner of her mouth.
For some reason, I felt as if my heart had been gently pricked by a needle.
But he immediately realized something.
Shen Jing actually caused a scene at the hospital; that's just too much!
As the future mistress of the Liang family, how can she be so ignorant!
He loosened his tie before saying, "There's a press conference scheduled for this afternoon. Pack your things and get discharged from the hospital immediately. We'll attend together to announce that the engagement banquet has been postponed by two days."
As expected, the tone remained businesslike, and blood seeped from Shen Jing's tightly clenched palms once again.
The stinging sensation came from the palm of my hand.
After reaching the heart, it spreads to the eyebrows.
Finally, there was no trace left in her indifferent eyes.
Shen Jing shrugged indifferently and said to him nonchalantly, "I didn't attempt suicide, so don't flatter yourself."
Everyone present, including Liang Jingyan, was stunned.
Even if Shen Jing had been willful and arrogant in the past, she would never have spoken to Liang Jingyan in such a tone.
And she always tried every possible way to get close to and please him!
That wasn't all. Shen Jing continued, "Let's skip the engagement. Wouldn't it be easier to just break it off?"
Time seemed to stand still.
After a while, Liang Jingyan finally looked at Shen Jing properly.
His face returned to its usual indifference, showing no trace of the unusual emotional fluctuations he had just experienced.
In Liang Jingyan's eyes, Shen Jing was very quiet in her hospital bed compared to her usual flamboyant and high-profile demeanor.
This made Liang Jingyan feel a slight unease.
But perhaps he's overthinking it.
He watched as Shen Jing played with her chestnut-colored, slightly wavy short hair with her fingers, her already fair skin glowing with a healthy rosy hue.
Like a doll in a hospital gown, aloof and clean yet infuriatingly worldly!
It's confirmed again, she's just throwing a childish tantrum!
The phone still had that childish accessory hanging on it, which looked very cheap and low-quality.
She even gave him the same one, but how could he possibly use something like that?
And when will she finally grow up and stop fighting over these baseless things?
Liang Jingyan closed his eyes, pursed his thin lips, and said sarcastically, "What trick are you trying to play now?"
Compared to the vicissitudes of ten years after the apocalypse, Liang Jingyan is now healthier and younger.
But in Shen Jing's view...
His disgust for her was as real as ever.
Even when she was the one who got hurt, she never received a single word of concern from him. Whenever Shen Ting cried, the first person he would blame was always Shen Jing!
Shen Jing glanced at Shen Ting, who was hiding behind him, then lowered her head, picked up her phone, and said, "I have already informed the media I know and announced the annulment of the engagement on social media."
Looking at Liang Jingyan, whose face was ashen, she said, "This time it was my initiative. Congratulations on your freedom!"
Liang Jingyan was still wondering what "this time" meant.
Then, her distant and indifferent attitude made my heart ache.
"Just because you're angry?! When will you ever grow up? Chen Ting is at the hotel..."
"Isn't this exactly what you wanted?" Shen Jing interrupted Liang Jingyan, not wanting to hear him mention that name again.
Liang Jingyan was slightly taken aback, and said in a deep voice, "With the engagement canceled, the Shen family can no longer continue to exist."
"You're talking about the investment in the Shen family business, aren't you? My dear uncle has always wanted to take over the Shen family business, hasn't he?" Shen Jing smiled sarcastically. "The marriage contract will be directly transferred to Shen Ting, perfect~"
His face suddenly froze. Was she serious?
The atmosphere in the ward suddenly became oppressive.
Liang Jingyan was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "Whatever you say!"
After saying that, he turned and left.
Shen Ting glanced helplessly at Liang Jingyan's retreating figure, then looked at Shen Jing, who was playing on her phone, and whispered, "Things really aren't what you think. Jingyan was only hiding it to help me..."
"You've been here for half an hour, and all you do is repeat the same old things. Why don't you tell me what's going on?" Shen Jing didn't even look up, continuing to operate her phone to confirm the warehouse and contact the trust company to handle the assets under her name.
Shen Ting was speechless, her mouth agape, looking even more aggrieved.
"Prepare 300 million by tomorrow, and I'll sell you the company's shares. No exceptions!"
"This was left to you by your second uncle..."
"Bring enough cash tomorrow, otherwise just sell it to the highest bidder." Shen Jing said indifferently.
Speak with conscience.
I must have been incredibly stupid in my past life to not have seen through this cousin.
It was only after being scammed several times that I slowly came to my senses.
While Shen Ting, relying on her good fortune, ruthlessly plundered everything from her, she was still foolishly helping to count the money.
At this moment, the vicious female supporting character, Shen Jing, only wanted to tell the guest to get lost.
Once the ward was finally clear of outsiders, Aunt Zhou came over angrily and said, "How could you say something about breaking off the engagement? Mr. Liang has been so good to you, and Miss Shen Ting is usually so well-behaved and sensible. How could they do such a thing!"
Shen Jing smiled, a knowing glint in her eyes.
It turns out that Aunt Zhou had been working for the Liang family all along, no wonder the Liang family knew so much about her.
It's getting more and more fun!
If they were to fight over a loaf of bread in the apocalypse, I wonder if Aunt Zhou would still be so loyal?
Shen Jing ignored Aunt Zhou's nagging and decisively left the hospital.
She returned to the villa from the hospital at 10 p.m.
Remembering the misunderstanding that led to her losing consciousness due to entering and exiting the space and being sent to the hospital, she decided to put a cup of ice cream and hot water into the cabin as a test.
Sure enough, whenever she needed to store or retrieve items, she only needed to silently recite the command.
It is not necessary to fully enter the space with one's consciousness.
Shen Jing breathed a sigh of relief; she could finally relax.
After a quick wash, she lay on the bed and continued her bulk online shopping spree.
I didn't fall asleep until the early hours of the morning.
My dreams are filled with the mundane things in life: firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, and tea.
She has now taken over all of these shops!
