Chapter 259: A fight to the death is a good thing
"The child in my belly isn't yours. Let me go, and let my mother go."
"You are Mrs. Zhan, how can the child in your belly not be mine? Issue a statement, we will remarry, and welcome our child together."
Zhan Yanxun's words were icy, carrying a chillingly sinister edge. Jiang Qianhui said angrily, "Zhan Yanxun, is this really necessary? Someone as arrogant as you, why do you insist on being a cuckold when you know perfectly well that the child in my belly isn't yours!"
"You are Lady Zhan, so the child in your womb can only be mine."
Zhan Yanxun spoke in a calm voice, his eyes were also steady, as if he couldn't understand what she was saying, as if he felt that only his words were the truth.
"Zhan Yanxun, deceiving yourself is not your style. If you want your own child, go find Qiao Weiwei. The child in her belly is yours. Don't do anything ridiculous for some laughable pride. I don't want to become a sacrifice for the Zhan family's reputation."
Jiang Qianhui knew that if Zhan Yanxun found out that the child in her belly was his, he would definitely take the child away. However, she did not expect that even if he knew that the child was not his, he would still want to take the child away. It seems that she still underestimated Zhan Yanxun.
Under his grandfather's tutelage, he had come to value the Zhan family's reputation above all else. He couldn't tolerate such humiliation, so regardless of whether the child in her womb was his or not, he wanted to take it away and wouldn't let her marry Gu Xunjing while she was pregnant.
"You are Lady Zhan, and you are pregnant with another man's child. That's truly absurd!"
Zhan Yanxun's sudden composure nearly drove Jiang Qianhui crazy.
“We’re divorced. Screw that damn Mrs. Zhan.”
"Does the identity of Lady Zhan really disgust you so much? You were the one who begged for it in the first place."
"Zhan Yanxun, I think you are a really pathetic person, always stuck in your own perceptions and unwilling to come out. I begged for the title of Mrs. Zhan, but what have you done in return? Now I don't want this title anymore, so why are you forcing me to accept it?"
"Why shouldn't you want it? I didn't do anything wrong!"
"You say you only want to repay a debt of gratitude to Qiao Weiwei, but that's what you owe her brother, not what I owe her. You cheated on her, and that's it. I don't want you anymore, and no one can force me. You are the noble president of the Zhan Group, but aren't I also the proud Miss Jiang?"
In fact, it wasn't that important to Zhan Yanxun who the child's father was, because even if it was Gu Xunjing's, it would only be a medical accident. He didn't believe that Jiang Qianhui would cheat on him during their marriage.
Even if she no longer loves him, she would never cheat on him during their marriage. So all he wants now is for Jiang Qianhui to come back. He doesn't want Jiang Qianhui to marry Gu Xunjing with her child.
But now, he finds it too difficult.
Zhan Yanxun stood there, wondering what had trapped him this time.
"Let my mother go, and stop doing pointless things. You didn't cherish me when I loved you. Now that I've given up on you, why are you still clinging on? All you care about is your pride. Don't you know what a dignified breakup is?"
Zhan Yanxun's eyes were deep and sorrowful as he said, "Jiang Qianhui, do you know how much I hate the indifference on your face?"
Jiang Qianhui said calmly, "What's wrong with not caring? Does it have to be a fight to the death?"
Jiang Qianhui spoke arrogantly, just like last time when he looked down at her and asked, "Why must we fight to the death?"
Zhan Yanxun said with restraint, "It's a fight to the death, a fight to the bitter end, that's good. Who do you think will be the first to die?"
Originally, Jiang Qianhui thought that she and Zhan Yanxun would no longer be on a path of life and death, because in this life she no longer cared about Zhan Yanxun and Qiao Weiwei. She had let go of her obsession and let herself go.
But now, without realizing it, they have reached a point of no return.
"Zhan Yanxun, if you dare to hurt my mother, you will definitely regret it."
If she dares to hurt her mother, she shouldn't blame her for harming his children.
Zhan Yanxun said sternly, "Regret? What else do you have to make me regret? You've already targeted the Zhan Group, publicly humiliated me, and forced me to divorce you. What other tricks or bargaining chips do you have left to make me regret?"
At this moment,
Gu Xunjing rushed out.
"Zhan Yanxun, let her go!"
Following behind Gu Xunjing was Jiang Qianhui's mother, Yang Huirong, who was clearly frightened.
Gu Xunjing originally intended to escort Jiang Qianhui, but she refused. Still worried, he followed her to the basement, where he encountered a suspicious person. He recognized him as Zhan Yanxun's assistant.
They then discovered that they had tied Yang Huirong to the Zhan family's car, clearly intending to threaten Jiang Qianhui.
Yang Huirong said angrily, "Zhan Yanxun, let go of my daughter! My daughter has already divorced you, and it was you who cheated on her during our marriage. How dare you cause trouble!"
Zhan Yanxun felt utterly speechless, no longer bothered to explain, yet now, even if he wanted to, he felt utterly powerless.
"My relationship with Qiao Weiwei is not as sordid as you all claim!"
Yang Huirong said angrily, "Not that despicable? You've already slept together and have a child together. How could it be more despicable than that?!"
Zhan Yanxun's eyes darkened; any explanation would have been futile!
"Zhan Yanxun, when you were my son-in-law, I treated you like a son. When my daughter wanted to divorce you, I tried my best to persuade her, and even scolded and hit her. What an ingrate you are! Now you're even kidnapping me. What are you trying to do?"
Zhan Yanxun didn't want to do anything to Yang Huirong; he just wanted to know whose child Jiang Qianhui was carrying, and he just wanted Jiang Qianhui to tell the truth.
"But I'd like to hear some truths."
Gu Xunjing stepped forward and shielded Jiang Qianhui behind him, asking her in a low voice if she was injured anywhere.
Jiang Qianhui shook her head, Zhan Yanxun's eyes were cold:
"Gu Xunjing, it seems you really enjoy playing the hero-saves-the-damsel-in-distress role. How many women have you used this tactic on?"
"Zhan Yanxun, who are you trying to disgust by saying that? I'm cleaner than you, at least I don't have any illegitimate children."
As Gu Xunjing spoke, he stepped forward and started fighting with Zhan Yanxun.
At this moment, the Gu family's bodyguards also arrived, and more than thirty of them surrounded Zhan Yanxun.
Even though he can't beat them, he'll call for backup.
"Zhan Yanxun, I may not be able to beat you, but sorry, the Gu family has plenty of men. You think you can fight? Thirty-odd men can fight you. If that's not enough, call a hundred men to spar with you. I want to see just how good you really are."
After Gu Xunjing finished speaking, he said to Jiang Qianhui, "Suihui, let's go."
Gu Xunjing turned around: "Treat him well."
Zhan Yanxun single-handedly dealt with more than thirty bodyguards, all of whom were highly skilled. It was clear that Gu Xunjing had made preparations.
