BXBX NOVEL Chapter 44: 44: Handling Privately
He had no more feelings for this woman.
“Mr. Jiang, we were in love once, isn’t my pleading enough?” Ye Jingjing tried again.
“And now you bring this up? You betrayed me, hooked up with this man, even plotted to kidnap me, and now you’re begging me—don’t you find it shameless?” Jiang Yuheng said coldly.
Ye Jingjing had nothing to say.
She had thought she had good enough reasons for her actions.
But now that everything had come to light, she found her actions ridiculous.
Speaking such words now did indeed seem shameless.
“Mr. Jiang, I won’t plead for him anymore, but could you please not call the police? I know I was wrong, and if you do, my life will be over,” Ye Jingjing pleaded.
“Had you known this would happen, why did you do it in the first place?” Jiang Yuheng said coldly.
This woman had betrayed him and even plotted his kidnapping—how could he simply let this go?
They were all adults; everyone must pay the price for their actions.
Upon hearing this, Ye Jingjing’s complexion turned pale.
Only now did she truly realize how absurd her behavior had been.
Her life had been fine; why had she done this?
Why had she listened to Liang Yurui and gotten back together with him?
That aside, getting back together was one thing, but why kidnap Jiang Yuheng?
In truth, had she simply broken up with Jiang Yuheng, as he had just said, he would have let her go.
Maybe if she had given a better reason, she might have even received some compensation from Jiang Yuheng.
Thinking of this, Ye Jingjing was filled with endless regret.
Looking at Liang Yurui screaming miserably from the beating, she felt endless resentment.
She had been fooled by Liang Yurui’s sweet words, her mind clouded.
But now, she had come to her senses.
Liang Yurui never loved her; he was just using her to kidnap Jiang Yuheng—all for money.
“Mr. Jiang, I truly realize my mistake, please have mercy on me,” she begged.
“If this gets out, it won’t be good for your reputation either.”
“As long as you let me go, you can do whatever you want to him; it’s fine even if you cripple him.”
“With your status and position, that shouldn’t be a problem. Calling the police to arrest him probably won’t be satisfying; it might be better to just cripple him.”
Ye Jingjing still couldn’t accept the idea of going to jail; it was unimaginable.
Jiang Yuheng had been determined to call the police, thinking it best to let them handle it.
But Ye Jingjing’s words made him hesitate.
If the incident got out, it would indeed reflect poorly on him.
After all, he was one of the top wealthy second-generation in Jiang City, and nationally, he had some fame, although it wasn’t as extensive as his friend Wang Xiaocong.
To be cuckolded by a girlfriend and nearly kidnapped.
If it spread, people might not dare to say anything to his face, but they might behind his back.
Not to mention the police keeping it a secret; nobody would know about this.
This sort of thing was too easily known in rich second-generation circles.
Eventually, it would become common knowledge.
His, Jiang Yuheng’s, face would be utterly lost.
Not just his shame, but even his father’s honor would be nowhere to be found.
This incident, once exposed, will definitely make Dad the laughingstock of the business world.
Who knows how many tycoons hostile to Dad will bring this up in front of him.
I have to say, handling it privately would be better.
“Mr. Jiang, I really know I was wrong. This whole thing, from start to finish, was orchestrated by Liang Yurui. I was just deceived by Liang Yurui. Please let me go.”
“As for Liang Yurui, do whatever you want with him.”
Seeing Jiang Yuheng somewhat moved, Ye Jingjing continued to beg for mercy.
“Ye Jingjing, you bitch, you actually don’t care about my life or death, you will not die a good death!”
Liang Yurui, who was beaten to the brink of death, heard Ye Jingjing’s words and couldn’t help but come back to life, cursing furiously.
“Trusting you was the worst decision of my life. It’s your fault I ended up like this, you’re the one who won’t die a good death,” Ye Jingjing retorted with resentment.
“You bitch, I didn’t force you. You did it because you wanted to. If you didn’t want to, you wouldn’t have listened to me,” Liang Yurui scolded back angrily.
“You…” Ye Jingjing trembled with rage.
Before Liang Yurui approached her, she had never thought about leaving Jiang Yuheng.
She also knew that she probably couldn’t marry Jiang Yuheng.
But breaking up with Jiang Yuheng should come with quite a few benefits.
It was Liang Yurui who contacted her, analyzed the situation for her, and painted a picture of the beautiful life abroad after they kidnapped Jiang Yuheng and got the money.
Only then did she agree and decide to do it with Liang Yurui.
Now, Liang Yurui not only denied it, but also pushed all the responsibility onto her.
She regretted even more that she had listened to Liang Yurui in the first place and was even more angry.
“Alright, you two stop talking,” Jiang Yuheng, who had gradually recovered, said. The effect of the drug didn’t last long.
The two fell silent. Now, their fate was completely in Jiang Yuheng’s hands.
“What you said earlier makes some sense. Indeed, it’s not suitable to call the police over this matter. Otherwise, it would have a great impact on both me and my dad,” Jiang Yuheng added.
“Mr. Jiang, have you forgiven me?” Ye Jingjing’s face lit up with hope.
“Forgive you? It’s not that easy,” Jiang Yuheng said with a cold sneer and a shake of his head.
“Then what do you want?” The joy on Ye Jingjing’s face disappeared.
“I’ve basically figured out this incident. The main responsibility lies with this man. You really were deceived by him, but you are also to blame,” Jiang Yuheng stated.
Ye Jingjing didn’t speak; indeed, that was true.
“I want to cripple one of his legs, and you’re going to do it,” Jiang Yuheng commanded.
“Mr. Jiang, you can take care of it yourself. I resent Liang Yurui, but I’ve never done such a thing,” Ye Jingjing replied with hate in her voice.
“If you don’t do it, I will, and I won’t just break one of his legs, I’ll also break one of yours. It’s your choice to make,” Jiang Yuheng said indifferently.
“I’ll do it.” Ye Jingjing’s eyes flickered as she gritted her teeth and made her decision.
Compared to having her own leg broken, of course she’d choose to break Liang Yurui’s leg.
After all, the reason she ended up in this situation was Liang Yurui’s fault; breaking his leg was no more than he deserved.
“Bitch, if you dare touch me, you will not die a good death!” Liang Yurui screamed in terror, throwing out threats.
“It’s you who made me like this; you’re the one who won’t die a good death!” Ye Jingjing said as she picked up the chair next to her and smashed it down on Liang Yurui’s leg.
“Ah!” Liang Yurui let out a scream. “Bitch, if you dare hit me like this, I will definitely kill you later!”
The leg didn’t break.
Ye Jingjing’s strength was still too gentle, so she exerted all her might and smacked down viciously again.
Crack!
Finally, the sound of breaking bones echoed.
“Bitch, I will definitely kill you!” Liang Yurui howled like a slaughtered pig, continuing to threaten Ye Jingjing.
