Chapter 308: Chapter 112: Jiang Heng Is Just a Bootlicker!

He asked himself—

Is he really as deplorable as Bai Xi said?

After a moment of serious reflection, Jiang Heng realized that Bai Xi was right.

Back then, the reason he went to Yujiang City to deceive Xu Xingguang’s feelings, to steal Xu Xingguang’s blood to treat Bai Xuan’s illness, was not at all out of gratitude. He merely wanted to keep his loved one alive.

To save the one he loved, he disregarded his father’s earnest teachings, ignored the hundred-year reputation of the Jiang Family, and became someone who broke the law and violated morals, trash.

Precisely because of this, when he later discovered that Bai Xuan was a cowardly woman who feared death, loved vanity, and was selfish and self-serving, he regretted it. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

But his pride and arrogance kept him from admitting that he was blind, loving someone unworthy of love.

In fact, whether Bai Xi existed or not, whether he had recognized the wrong person to give thanks to or not, when he saw through Bai Xuan’s true nature and realized he had loved someone he shouldn’t, he wouldn’t have let Bai Xuan or Jie Siyu go.

But Bai Xi happened to exist.

Thus, he had a vent, an excuse.

Using the pretext of having thanked the wrong person, he no longer concealed the evil thoughts in his heart and started his revenge on Bai Xuan.

After understanding all this, Jiang Heng found it amusing.

"Ha."

Jiang Heng suddenly stood up and immediately returned to the Jiang Family.

At that time, in the Jiang Family manor, Jie Siyu was talking with Bai Xuan in the room.

Jie Siyu tightly squeezed Bai Xuan’s hands, her nerves tense, stubbornly seeking an answer from her. "Xuan’er, Jiang Heng said you’re planning to put me in a mental hospital. He’s lying to me, right?"

Bai Xuan avoided answering Jie Siyu’s question and instead asked, "Did you go to disrupt Bai Xi?"

Jie Siyu knew the matter would eventually reach Bai Xuan’s ears, so she didn’t hide and simply admitted. "Yes, I heard you crying on the phone and learned you were being confined by Jiang Heng. Feeling indignant, I went to the hotel where Bai Xi was staying to teach her a lesson."

"But Bai Xi, that bitch, used to seem like a pushover who wouldn’t retaliate no matter what I said to her. But today, she suddenly turned, crying and making a scene in front of so many people."

"After her outburst, now the whole city might know what we’ve done to her."

Jie Siyu deeply regretted this.

With gritted teeth, she spoke venomously, "If I had known this trouble would stir up so much, I should have had Dong Xi find a way to kill her! Had she died, none of this chaos would have happened!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Xuan did not comment.

She merely said in a peculiar tone, "So now, everyone in the city knows about the despicable things you’ve done? And knows I not only covered up your crimes but also let Bai Xi die without offering help?"

Sensing the coldness in Bai Xuan’s words, Jie Siyu fell silent.

Her eyes flickered nonstop, and even her grip on Bai Xuan’s hand started to shake.

Jie Siyu shamefully explained, "Xuan’er, Mother didn’t mean to make such a mess out of things, I just wanted to find Bai Xi and stand up for you."

"If I had known things would escalate to this degree, I wouldn’t have gone to look for Bai Xi!"

The moment Jie Siyu realized she messed things up and dragged down Bai Xuan’s reputation, her regret ran deep.

This was truly a case of aiming to steal a chicken only to end up losing the rice used to lure it.

But the matter had already occurred, there was nothing she could do about it.

"Ha." Bai Xuan withdrew her fingers from Jie Siyu’s palms and casually pulled out a wet tissue from the bedside table, meticulously wiping the hand that had just been held by Jie Siyu.

Noticing her actions, Jie Siyu’s gaze tightened and her facial expression changed. "Xuan’er, why are you relentlessly wiping your hands?"

"Why?" Bai Xuan rubbed her fingers to the point of turning slightly red but still refused to stop.

She said, "Because you make me sick. As soon as I think of you betraying my father, and getting involved with that driver named Jiao, being near you, I can smell the stench on you."

Upon hearing this, Jie Siyu looked at her in shock, as if struck by lightning. "Is this how you see me?"

She was Bai Xuan’s mother!

"What else?" Bai Xuan eyed the scar on her left wrist, her gaze chilled and disdainful, "Whenever I look at this scar, a testament to your adultery, I just wish I were rid of you!"

Bai Xuan spoke cruel words with a gentle demeanor, "Mother, sending you to a mental hospital is already being lenient."
