Chapter Sixty-Seven: The Feeling of Being Protected



The low, menacing voice reached her ears, and Jiang Mingwei was momentarily stunned, unable to react for a long time.

Is the person in front of me with a ferocious face and eyes filled with hatred and murderous intent really the original owner's own brother?

Why do they act like enemies...?

"Speak! I need you to talk! What poison did you give Yihuan? She was so good to you, always thinking of you, trying to ease the tension between you and me. Why did you hurt her? Don't you have a heart?!"

Gone was his former debonair self; now, Jiang Mingjin was like a hysterical madman, grabbing Jiang Mingwei and questioning her repeatedly.

The passersby had already noticed the feud between them, and they stopped to watch, pointing and whispering with mocking smiles in their eyes.

"What do you want? Let me go!"

Jiang Mingwei came to her senses and tried to shake him off, but Jiang Mingjin held on too tightly and she couldn't break free.

His eyes were filled with anger, and he struggled to get up again.

"I told you to let me go, didn't you hear me? Let me go right now! Jiang Mingjin, if you're sick, go take your medicine and stop acting like this in front of me!"

"I told you long ago that my sister-in-law was poisoned, but you didn't believe me. Now you're even suspecting that I poisoned her! Am I crazy to expose myself in front of you?"

Jiang Mingwei struggled fiercely, questioning him angrily.

Jiang Mingjin's expression froze for a moment, clearly not expecting what Jiang Mingwei said.

But upon closer reflection, how could she not know this herself?

His suspicions are simply too baseless!

So many days have passed since Jiang Mingwei left the Jiang family, what kind of poison could have been lurking for so long?

Moreover, there had been no symptoms at all before this.

Moreover, he asked her and found out that Li Yihuan hadn't eaten anything that day. Since it didn't enter her body through her mouth, how could the poison have affected her?

But when he heard that Li Yihuan was indeed poisoned, he immediately remembered what Jiang Mingwei had said before.

No doctor had ever investigated whether Li Yihuan had been poisoned before; only Jiang Mingwei had mentioned it!

So if she didn't poison him, who else could it be?

With a slightly cold look in his eyes, Jiang Mingjin's hatred rekindled. He no longer cared about keeping his family scandal private; he only wanted this vicious woman to cure his wife and children of the poison and make her pay the price for her cruelty.

So what if she's a twin sister?

With a wicked and vicious heart, he would rather he had never had such a sister!

From now on, I will have no further contact with her.

The pressure on her hand gradually increased, and the female supporting character cried out in pain again, her face turning pale.

Seeing that her young mistress was unable to break free, Hua Cui quickly stepped forward to help.

While pulling Jiang Mingwei, he angrily spoke to Jiang Mingjin.

"Young Master, what are you doing? You've hurt Miss! What did she do wrong to deserve this? Don't forget she's married. What you're doing is wrong, Young Master..."

"Get out of here, you have no right to speak!"

Jiang Mingjin was furious and pushed Hua Cui away before she could finish speaking.

Hua Cui cried out in surprise, stumbled, and accidentally fell to the ground.

"Floral Extracts!"

Jiang Mingwei's pupils constricted, and she hurriedly tried to help her, but was dragged forward two steps.

Looking up, she met Jiang Mingjin's violent gaze.

"Come on! Come back to the Jiang family with me! Atone for your sister-in-law's sins, or I will never let you go! I will use every trick in the book on you!"

Jiang Mingwei was furious, her fists clenched so tightly they cracked. At that moment, she even wanted to kill Jiang Mingjin. She couldn't understand how he dared to speak to her like that.

They even touched her flower essence. Did they really think Jiang Mingwei was easy to bully?

The original owner might be sad, but she won't!

"Enough, Jiang Mingjin, who do you think you are? Why should I listen to you in everything? Apologize to me and Hua Cui right now!"

"You're about to kill my wife and children, why should I apologize to you? Now come with me!"

Jiang Mingjin's tone was resolute, completely ignoring Jiang Mingwei's pleas.

With her other hand clenched into a fist, Jiang Mingwei trembled with anger. Staring at his face, her fist tightened further, veins bulging on the back of her hand. She raised her hand high, ready to strike him across the face—

"Minister Jiang, let go."

A cool, refreshing scent wafted into her nostrils, accompanied by a deep voice, causing Jiang Mingwei to pause slightly.

When I looked up in surprise, I saw a face with deep, dark eyes.

Who else could it be but Wei Jing?

He silently gripped Jiang Mingjin's wrist, his fingers tightening slightly even though he appeared outwardly calm.

Wei Jing was a military general who had practiced martial arts for many years and was extremely strong. How could Jiang Mingjin, a civil official, possibly stand against him?

In the blink of an eye, his face turned pale, and a look of pain flashed in his eyes...

Under intense pressure, he had no choice but to release his grip on Jiang Mingwei's wrist.

She quickly withdrew her hand, shook it vigorously, and rolled up her sleeve to take a look. Jiang Mingwei was so angry that she almost fainted!

Just as she expected, her wrists were already bruised and purple from being scratched.

If you didn't know better, you'd probably think she'd been kidnapped by a ghost in the middle of the night!

That damn bastard, why did he hit me so hard? I really wanted to strangle him to death!

"Minister Jiang, I apologize for the inconvenience."

Seeing that Jiang Mingwei was out of danger, Wei Jing released him and stepped forward silently to separate Jiang Mingjin and Jiang Mingwei.

Looking at the broad back in front of her, Jiang Mingwei's heart raced, and her emotions surged...

She glared at Jiang Mingjin secretly, really wanting to tell Wei Jing to beat him up!

If we can beat that bastard Jiang Mingjin to a pulp today, she'll definitely listen to Wei Jing in everything from now on.

Jiang Mingjin looked at Wei Jing, whose expression was calm but who was determined to protect Jiang Mingwei, with a hint of resentment in his eyes.

Thinking of Li Yihuan waiting at home for emergency treatment, he spoke coldly and urgently, "General Wei, this is a family matter between me and Jiang Mingwei. It has nothing to do with you. Please do not interfere."

"You're just her brother-in-law, not her husband. You shouldn't be the one to interfere in this matter!"

“Minister Jiang is right. This matter should be handled by my elder brother. But my elder brother has passed away. I promised him that I would take care of his family, which naturally includes my sister-in-law.”

“Even though my elder brother is not here, the Wei family is not without men! If Minister Jiang were just making an ordinary visit, I would naturally not stop him. But just now I saw clearly that you seemed to want to kill my sister-in-law, so I will take care of this matter.”

Oh my god, is this what it feels like to be unconditionally protected?

Jiang Mingwei's heart was racing uncontrollably...

No wonder the original owner insisted on seducing her uncle, Wei Jing!

It turns out that besides being handsome, he also has such a strong personal charm. Who wouldn't love someone like that? Anyway, she fell in love with him.

I'm just too afraid to love too much, so let's just love a little bit...

Looking at the crowd that was gradually gathering around him, Wei Jing didn't want the matter to escalate too much, so he whispered a reminder.

"Minister Jiang, why don't you take a look around? Shall we talk somewhere else?"

Jiang Mingjin snapped out of her daze, turned around and looked around, and immediately froze.

When did so many people gather here...?
