Tycoon's Eye Candy Is Actually a Bigshot-Chapter 60 - Master Steps on a Mine

His mind raced to find the right response.

“Master, I think the Young Madam won’t be angry because you are the son-in-law of the Su Family, and even more so, the lawful husband of the Young Madam.

The Young Madam probably belongs to the slow-to-warm-up type of girl.

Generally, these types of people need the other party to take the initiative for anything to happen.

So, Master, if you want the Young Madam to pay more attention to you, then you will need to show up in front of her more often and cultivate affection.”

After speaking, Jiang Feng took a quick glance at the rearview mirror, fearing he had misspoken a single word.

But the expression on their Master’s face did not soften.

Next, he heard the man in the back seat say: “But she says she has a disorder that makes her incapable of feelings.”

“Ah?” Jiang Feng was somewhat dumbfounded.

The Young Madam has a disorder that makes her incapable of feelings?

Then…

At that moment, the large iron gate of the Su Family opened, interrupting the conversation between the master and servant.

The doorkeeper called out, “You may enter now.”

In the Su Family living room, only Su He and Su Zhimian were present.

Young Master Jiang, clad in a dark suit, strode in with his long legs, his whole being exuding his preciousness.

He was like a cold and aloof flower on a high ridge.

Behind him, Jiang Feng was carrying a pile of gifts.

Su Zhimian raised an eyebrow with interest and curved his lips in a slight smile, starting to speak: “Yo, the brother-in-law has arrived.

Why bring so many gifts?

If I didn’t know any better, I’d think it was New Year’s.”

Su He: “…”

Su Zhimian was usually serious, so why was he not being serious now?

Calling him brother-in-law?

Knowing full well she intended to divorce Young Master Jiang, why call him so familiarly!

Perhaps it was the term “brother-in-law” that delighted Young Master Jiang’s mood in an instant.

He rarely showed a smile on his face and greeted Su Zhimian, “Big brother.”

Su Zhimian was somewhat flattered.

Although the Su Family’s enterprise was also not inferior to the Jiang Family, Young Master Jiang could be considered a dragon among men in the business world.

In the business realm, if Young Master Jiang claimed to be second, no one would dare claim to be first.

He might just be the only one Young Master Jiang would willingly address as “big brother.”

Thrilled, Su Zhimian gave a contented “hm.”

Su He gave him a look that clearly said, “Can’t you be a bit more dignified?”

Feeling a bit exposed by his own sister, Su Zhimian touched his nose and coughed lightly, “Uncle Zhu, pour a cup of tea for Young Master Jiang.”

“Right away, Young Master.”

Uncle Zhu turned and went to the kitchen for a cup of tea.

During that time, Su Zhimian said to him, “Grandpa and Grandma went to my place today, they’re not at the old Su Family house, so it’s up to me, the eldest grandson, to entertain you.”

In fact, just a short while ago, Su Yiguo and He Jinyi took Su Yimo out of the old Su Family house through the back door.

Originally, Su Yiguo was supposed to temporarily take Su Yimo out of the old Su Family house to his place, but the two elders wanted to play with their great-grandson and did not want to meet Young Master Jiang.

They left him behind to deal with Young Master Jiang.

After all, he was the son-in-law of the Su Family, and they had to leave someone respectable to host him, so as not to lose face for the Su Family.

Su Zhimian was the best candidate.

The auras of the two men contrasted—one soft but firm, the other exuding dominance.

“It’s all right, I’ll visit the elder Mr.

and Mrs.

Su another time.

Today, I am here mainly to celebrate Susu’s birthday,” Young Master Jiang said.

As soon as he finished speaking, it was obvious that the two people opposite of him and Uncle Zhu, who had just brought out the tea cup, were stunned.

Sharp as he was, he immediately sensed something was amiss.

Uncle Zhu thought to himself: Does the son-in-law not know the young Miss never celebrates her birthday?

Jiang Feng guessed in his heart: Could the Master have stepped on a landmine?

The following words from Su Zhimian confirmed his guess.

Su Zhimian looked at Young Master Jiang, teasingly saying, “Seems like the brother-in-law doesn’t know enough about our Susu, it seems the four years of marriage was in vain.”

Young Master Jiang’s eyebrows knitted slightly, his face stiffened, and a flash of panic that had never been seen before crossed his deep eyes.

He looked towards Su He, who appeared calm and composed.

A short while later, she slightly raised her lips and said, “Although today is my birthday, it is also the anniversary of my mother’s death, so I never celebrate my birthday.”

This was no secret in the Su Family.

Almost everyone from the Su Family, including the servants, knew this.

Upon hearing this, Young Master Jiang’s brain exploded.

He truly did not know.

No wonder she had never responded to any of the gifts he had sent in the past.

Jiang Feng was also stunned!

This was not just stepping on a landmine; it was stepping on an atomic bomb.

“I’m sorry, I…”

He immediately offered an apology, but Su He interrupted him, “No, it’s fine, it’s normal for you not to know, and not everyone pays attention to these details.” She said: “After all, one’s attentiveness is reserved only for the person in their heart.”

After speaking, she gave him a look.

There were no fluctuations in her emotions, quite indifferent.

This was Young Master Jiang’s first time ‘dying’ socially, and it was over something like this.

“Brother, I’m a bit tired; please entertain President Jiang well.”

After saying that, Su He stood up and went upstairs, leaving behind only her slender silhouette.

In his heart, Jiang Feng silently prayed for their Master; this was his first visit to the Young Madam’s parental home, and it had turned out to be incredibly awkward.

This was unusual indeed.

And to be treated to her cold indifference.

But this time, he was on the Young Madam’s side.

Watching him as his gaze followed Su He’s retreating figure with unstinting interest, Su Zhimian chuckled softly, “Only you would dare to provoke her at such a time.

But, ignorance is no crime.”

Jiang Yan turned his head and their gazes met.

Indeed, Jiang Yan had a strong presence, and most people didn’t dare to make eye contact with him.

But as Su Zhimian, the brother-in-law, he also had his own aura and style.

Su Zhimian shifted the topic: “However, Jiang Yan, this is where you are wrong.

As Susu’s husband, and practically a member of the Su Family, it’s surprising that you are unaware of this matter.

That doesn’t seem like something someone with your level of intelligence would do.”

There was a hint of sarcasm in Su Zhimian’s words, but Jiang Yan couldn’t refute him.

Because what he said wasn’t wrong; it was the truth.

“I’m sorry, I truly neglected this,” he sincerely admitted with a good attitude.

Su Zhimian took advantage of the opening he gave, “Indeed, you have been neglectful.”

Su Zhimian casually touched his chin, staring at him with a look that suggested he had more to say but held back, scrutinizing him repeatedly: “Speaking of which, President Jiang, have you also been this neglectful towards Miss Tang from the Tang Family?”

The two elders of the Su Family were still unaware of the affair between Jiang Yan and Tang Sirou.

Previously, Su He had instructed that all negative news should be kept from the old couple.

Fortunately, the Old Madam and the old gentleman neither fancied using smartphones nor watching television.

With their free time, they would read their respective books, or practice calligraphy, or perhaps water the flowers in the back garden, or take care of the vegetables they grew themselves, passing the time.

Otherwise, if the Old Mr.

and Mrs.

Su had learned of the gossip involving Jiang Yan and the lady from the Tang Family, he wouldn’t have been able to enter the Su Family’s threshold today.

Su Zhimian suddenly asking this question was unexpected by Jiang Yan.

The competition between the brother-in-law and the brother-in-law had begun.

Su He had stayed with the Su Family for two days and went directly back to the hospital to work on the third day.

As soon as she stepped into the main hall of the hospital on the first floor, she heard a commotion coming from the emergency building next door.

She followed the noise and saw a man holding a female nurse hostage, with a knife to the nurse’s throat.

As she approached, she heard the man shout at the security guard: “Don’t come any closer!

Your misdiagnosis killed my child!

Call your leader, I want an explanation now!”

One of the older nurses tried to calm him down, “Mr.

Qin, please don’t be impulsive.

We’ve already contacted our leaders.

Please let our nurse go first.

Let’s sit down and talk calmly, or you can put down the knife first.

Please, do not get agitated and hurt our nurse…”

Su He watched from the side for a while and then casually asked an emergency nurse about what had happened.

Almost everyone in the hospital knew her.

The emergency nurse said, “Last night, his wife fainted at home with bleeding below the waist, and her family brought her to the emergency department.

The woman was already four months pregnant.

She had a severe hemorrhage on the way here, and the child couldn’t be saved.

Our emergency doctors diagnosed that she miscarried due to taking contraindicated drugs, but he didn’t believe it.

He claimed his wife fainted due to anemia and that the child was fine when they arrived at the hospital, but then the baby was gone once they were in the operating room.

He’s accusing us of killing his child.

This morning, he came to the nurses’ station very agitated and grabbed a nurse as a hostage on a whim.”

Su He nodded upon hearing this.

“Okay, I understand.

Where is his wife now?” Su He asked.

“She went through a uterine curettage last night and is still lying in bed,” said the emergency nurse.

“By the way, Director Su, there’s one more thing.

His wife seemed very emotionally stable.

Even after finding out about the loss of her child, she didn’t cry or make a fuss, showing absolutely no sign of being upset.”

“It’s not that I want to speculate about the patient, but she really is too calm, which is somewhat abnormal,” the nurse added after her explanation.

“I understand.

Go fetch her medical records for me,” Su He ordered.

The nurse replied, “Okay.”

The nurse went to get the medical records and quickly returned.

“Here you are, Director Su.”

Su He quickly reviewed the records, noting that she had already had two prior miscarriages and had undergone curettage procedures.

She became pregnant again every six months, only to miscarry again.

Su He frowned slightly, “Has the police been called?”

“They were called five minutes ago.”

“Ah…”

“Blood, blood…”

At that moment, several piercing screams of horror and panic rang out.

It was the passersby on the scene who were screaming.

Although the crowd was kept back by security, many people still gathered to watch from not too far away.

“Mr.

Qin, don’t be impulsive,” the head of the security team shouted, “Think about your family, your wife; she’s still lying in bed waiting for you to take care of her.

What will your family and your wife do if something happens to you?”

These words had no effect on Qin Jun; he didn’t listen to a single one.

He tightly restrained the female nurse in front of him, and with his other hand, he held a dagger against the nurse’s neck, his entire body in a state of high tension.

If he was not careful, the knife would slash across the nurse’s throat.

He glared at the security guard and yelled, “Get lost, don’t talk to me with these hypocritical words, I want to see your leader!”

At this moment, the bloodstains on the nurse’s neck deepened, and bright red blood began to ooze out along the edge of the dagger.

The man’s skin was dark, his face gaunt, his eyes bloodshot, with dark circles beneath, and his hair disheveled; his expression was ferocious and sinister at this moment.

The female nurse dared not move at all; her face was covered with tears, and only her sobbing could be heard.

Just then, Su He suddenly appeared and shouted, “Qin Jun, let’s have a talk.”

Unlike others, she kept a certain distance from Qin Jun, standing only three steps away from him.

Qin Jun’s face changed dramatically, and he became instantly alert.

He half-hid his head behind the nurse, his eyes fixed on Su He who had just appeared.

Su He’s approach made him feel an invisible pressure.

He shouted at Su He, “Don’t come any closer!”

Someone angrily commented, “Who is she?

Her rash approach is equivalent to provoking this man, isn’t it?”

Su He looked at him with a calm demeanor and even smiled at him.

She spoke directly, “Qin Jun, it’s not too late to turn back now.”

When Qin Jun heard that she came to negotiate, his emotions flared up again, and his grip on the knife became heavier, “Get lost, I want to see the hospital leader.”

“Qin Jun, you have already committed the crime of intentional injury!”

Su He’s tone was serious and cold, her presence very strong.

“According to relevant regulations, you are currently only guilty of minor injury, punishable by up to three years of fixed-term imprisonment, but—”

She shifted her tone, “If you don’t stop now, you will be committing a serious crime of intentional injury, punishable by ten years or more of fixed-term imprisonment, life imprisonment, or even the death penalty!”

Qin Jun was momentarily intimidated by her aura.

Suddenly, Su He raised her hand and pointed towards the nurse’s neck, asking him a question, “Qin Jun, do you know where your knife is positioned right now?”

At this moment, Qin Jun’s mind was somewhat dazed; he stared at her with vigilant eyes but did not reply.

Su He said, “Your knife is currently against the carotid artery of our medical staff, a very important blood vessel in the human body that supplies blood to our entire brain.

If you apply a little more force with that knife, she will bleed out on the spot, and you will become a murderer!”

While everyone held their breath in suspense, it was visibly apparent that the knife pressing against the nurse’s neck loosened.

He was the kind of person who responded to firmness not softness.

Seizing the moment, Su He pressed on, “Qin Jun, you are well aware of why your wife Liu Xiaoling miscarried.

This is not her first unexpected miscarriage, am I right?”

As soon as she finished speaking, she noticed Qin Jun’s gaze start to evade.

This made Su He even more certain of her guess.

The reason for his actions today was something only he himself knew.

Su He once again spoke, “Qin Jun, you now have only two paths in front of you: pull back from the precipice or fall into an abyss.”
