trangely, puzzled. How come Qin Mumumu was acting so weird all of a sudden"Jian Tong, get up first. Sitting on the ground will make you catch a cold. Your body is just recovering after being discharge...After one second, two knocks of "knock knock" came from the taxi driver's side window. Immediately, Jian Tong heard a cold, official voice from outside the car, "Sir, please open the passenger door of the taxi."

The tone was overly formal, devoid of any emotion, using the word "please" but with an attitude that was extremely forceful... All of Shen Xiujin's subordinates had learned from Shen Xiujin.

"Don't open the car door!" the little girl exclaimed excitedly to the driver. "I'll give you money..."

Suddenly...

"Bang!"

With a bang, the taxi window on the driver's side shattered into pieces.

This sudden scene startled not only Jian Tong, but also the driver in the front seat.

"I I want to call the police! There is no law!"

"Whoosh!" A stack of brand new red bills was thrown onto the driver's body. At a glance, it seemed to be about ten thousand. Outside the car window, the bodyguard with a black suit and a crew cut asked with a wooden face, "Now, can we open the car door"

"Okay, okay, okay! No problem!" The driver, eyes gleaming at the sight of money, eagerly replied. He opened the passenger door of his taxi and said, "Alright, get out."

The driver was certain in his heart that this crazy woman beside him must have offended some powerful figure. He no longer bothered to be polite to Jian Tong and rudely ordered her to get out of the car. His tone was rough and aggressive. Jian Tong refused to get off, she clung tightly to the seatback, seeing this, the driver even resorted to using his hands, roughly and violently pulling at Jian Tong's arms.

"Get out! I'm not taking you anymore! Now!"

Jian Tong clutched the seat back, shaking her head desperately... No! Don't! Please don't make me get off!

"Get off." A cool voice, faint yet unmistakable, echoed behind Jian Tong. The familiar sound sent a shiver down Jian Tong's spine.

This night was filled with a slight heat, which was suddenly erased by this sound.

No, don't look back, don't look back and it'll be over… It's just an hallucination, auditory hallucination.

"Don't make me say that again. Jian Tong, you know what happens when you anger me." The voice behind him was even more devoid of humanity.

Jane's face instantly paled... She knew! Of course, she knew! How could she not!

Thus, suppressing her fear, she slowly turned around.

The man stood two or three meters outside the car, bathed in the yellow light of the street lamp. He held a cigarette between his fingers, taking a drag and letting out a plume of white smoke that swirled around him, partially obscuring the exquisitely carved features of his face.

Under the dim light, Jian Tong couldn't make out Shen Xiuqin's expression. However, the other party stood under the street lamp, stretching out his hand and beckoning her, "Come here."

The low voice was incredibly alluring, captivating any woman who heard it, leaving her entranced and spellbound.

But, this sound in Jian Tong's ears, was like a death knell from the King Yama!

She didn't want to go, not at all, but she dared not. Her feet, as if with a consciousness of their own, stepped out of the car. Jian Tong walked slowly towards the man under the streetlamp.

The man furrowed his handsome brows, his gaze sweeping over Jane's legs before settling back on her face. He let out a sneer, a hint of mockery in his voice: "Is this interesting Miss Jane, who is usually decisive and composed, is now deliberately dragging things out Hmph～"

Jian Tong gasped, pinching her thigh hard... She knew that Shen Xiujin believed in his heart that she was deliberately dragging her feet.

She did hope that it was really as he said: she was just delaying.

But the facts...the facts! Huh~

Gritting her teeth, Jian Tong quickened her pace. A familiar pain shot through her, and Jian Tong bit herself hard.

The man under the street lamp saw her quickening pace, a slight upturn at the corner of his mouth... That's right, a toy should behave like a toy.

Reaching out, he grabbed the woman beside him. Shen Xiujin exhaled his last puff of smoke, holding the cigarette butt between his fingers and without looking back, stretched out towards the back. Immediately, an subordinate took the finished cigarette from his hand.

The next second, a large hand grabbed her chin, and Jian Tong's jaw ached.

Shen Xiujin grasped Jian Tong's chin, moving it back and forth left and right, his sharp gaze carefully appreciating Jian Tong's awkwardness:

"Tut tut~ When did the high-spirited Miss Jian become so timid and cowardly, humiliated by a mere taxi driver to the point of being completely disrespected and endlessly apologizing, with no dignity whatsoever"

Jian Tong trembled and blurted out, "Did you send someone to follow me"

"Tsk, not too dumb after all."

Jian Tong's face turned ashen. Suddenly, a chilling, mirthless laugh escaped her lips... She had said it herself, how could Shen Xiu Jin possibly let her off so easily

Suddenly, she turned her head and looked at the taxi driver, slowly saying, "Master, didn't you ask me what I stole from someone and why I was being chased everywhere" She slowly met the taxi driver's gaze:

"Life, I stole a woman's life, I killed the one she loved most," Jian Tong slowly pointed at Shen Xiuqin, then slowly at himself: "My best friend."

Her speech was extremely slow, to the point where everyone present felt like they were facing not a woman in her twenties, but an elderly person—a "senior citizen" in the twilight of their years.

Shen Xiujin loathed this feeling, a blaze of anger erupting within him. He grabbed Jian Tong's hand and shoved her into his car.

Jian Tong suddenly cried out, "Wait a minute, my money!" She got her chance and "ran" toward the taxi driver. To be precise, in the eyes of everyone else, she was just a bit faster than an ordinary person walking.

As she neared the taxi, a long arm suddenly wrapped around her waist, and a gruff voice hissed, "My money! Without money, how can I..."

"Without money, how can you escape" A cold voice cut off Jian Tong's words, coldly questioning him, "Hmm Is that so"

Jian Tong was stunned... No! Of course not! She needed money, lots and lots of money. She had to repay her debts, fulfill a promise... Her money! Her Erhai dream! Her promise!

"Let me go! The money!" Jian Tong struggled, shouting hoarsely at the taxi driver: "Give me back my money!"

"Hey, the money you gave me, can it be taken back after being given to someone" The taxi driver naturally didn't want the money to fly away. After all, this crazy woman had killed the noble lord's wife, and she wouldn't have a good ending anyway. Why should he worry about it himself.

"Give me my money back!" Jian Tong's eyes were red with anger. "Please, please! Just give me my money back! I have no money! No money! How am I supposed to..." Jian Tong pleaded, a mix of fury and humiliation in her voice.

Boom!

Shen Xiujin was furious!

He couldn't believe that the person before him was Jian Tong!

In my impression, the woman who dared to confess her love to him was coldly rejected by him. She raised her delicate chin and told him: “Vi Ming is indeed good, but she doesn’t suit you. A woman worthy of Shen Xiu Jin should be more confident and stronger, like me.”d up at the rotating ceiling, already mumbling incoherently: “Let me go, let me go, please let me go…”Su Meng looked at such a simple child, pain made her close her eyes. … Jian Tong, this fool!"Don't...
