Chapter 386: 251 Siye slaps his own sister; is the cult CP spreading sweetness?

Hospital Inside

Jiang Jinsang stood by the window, incessantly fidgeting with his cufflinks. Though spring had begun and the sun

shone unrestrained, a piercing coldness still remained. Someone knocked at the door, a light sound, and quietly

pushed open the door, calling out in a hushed voice, Sir,” and then tiptoed to his side.

"Among those who went to the police station with the Fourth Master were indeed a young lady, Qi Zeyan, and

Miss Ruan. It seems these two encountered each other along the way," Jiang Cuo entered, his voice very low. He

had just been to the traffic division to deal with the car issue.

"Jiang Shuyan..." Jiang Jinsang sneered coldly.

"One side of the car was dented in. It looked like the Fourth Master had purposely turned his car to let her hit it,

perhaps to stop her. According to the marks at the scene, both vehicles were moving very fast at the time."

"Is there any move from uncle’s side?"

"It seems he personally went to the police station and called a private lawyer; currently, he’s on the way." Jiang

Cuo glanced at Tang Wan, "With the Fourth Master making such a scene out of the blue, could it be..."

Jiang Chengsi acts in a twisted and wicked manner, yet he always measures his actions. He would never make

such a big commotion on the road with Jiang Shuyan without reason.

Plus, with Tang Wan'’s recent incident, anyone could sense something fishy in this.

Jiang Jinsang took out his cellphone and dialed a number...

ok

Beijing, Hexi Sub-branch Police Station

The officers, upon hearing that Jiang Chengsi and Qi Zeyan were coming, did not dare to neglect them. They

arranged for the four people to stay in the reception area and sent someone to inquire.

"Fourth Master, Young Master Qi? What brings you here..." The officer looked over the four individuals. Ruan

Mengxi wore a down jacket with a women’s suit underneath, standing behind Qi Zeyan, clearly looking like an

assistant. Meanwhile, Jiang Shuyan had just been crying, her eyes red and swollen, her body shivering, "Have

stea first."

He took a paper cup, first pouring warm water for Jiang Shuyan, seeing that among the four, she was the most

emotionally unstable. But once the cup reached her hands, her trembling hands nearly spilled the water.

"Jiang Shuyan—"

As soon as Jiang Chengsi spoke up, it was as if he had touched sfatal switch in her, causing her whole body

to flinch, spilling the cup of water.

"Tell it yourself."

His voice hoarse and low, yet carrying an overwhelming pressure.

"Say, say what..." Jiang Shuyan choked back her trembling teeth.

"What do you think?"

"l, I don’t know." Everyone has an instinct to survive and defend themselves, Jiang Shuyan included. Without

concrete evidence, she would feign ignorance.

Jiang Chengsi suddenly stood up from the chair, glaring at her furiously, "Say it again, you don’t know?"

Jiang Shuyan clenched her fists tight, her body taut as if facing a formidable enemy, her lips pressed together as

if she were ready to take her secret to the grave.

"It seems you won't shed tears until you see the coffin."

"Fourth Master, let's talk this out, after all, you are siblings. We're still within the new year; is there a need to

make things this ugly?" The officer, thinking it was a common family conflict, smiled as he stepped in to mediate.

"Yeah, we are real siblings, so why do you always turn your elbow out!" Earlier, the car crash had Jiang Shuyan’s

nerves on edge, and now she erupted completely, "You're my brother, why do you always have to target me!"

"I'm targeting you? Hah—" Jiang Chengsi scoffed lightly, "Do you think | have nothing better to do? If you've

done nothing wrong, then why were you at the roadside, clinging to my leg and crying!"

"I... | was just scared!" freeweb\(n)ovel(.)co(m)

"Scared?" His laugh was cold and bitter, "Jiang Shuyan, lift up your head and look at me!"

Their gazes met, one resolute and cold, the other panicked and tense.

"Now look into my eyes and tell me, today you never went into the mountains, never saw Tang Wan. Her

accident has nothing to do with you."

Ruan Mengxi did not know Jiang Shuyan, nor was she aware of the troubles between her and Tang Wan. Hearing

Jiang Chengsi’s words now, her pupils shivered slightly. Could Tang Wan’s accident be related to her? A surge of

emotion raised in her heart, and she subconsciously stepped forward, only to be stopped by Qi Zeyan grabbing

her wrist.

He shook his head at her.

Signaling her: Don’t move!

"Today, I..." The guilty are always restless, and eyes are the easiest to betray oneself. As she began to speak and

their gazes met, she instinctively looked away.

"Look at me! Tellwith certainty, you never saw her today!"

No matter how strained their relationship, the ties of blood are hard to sever. Jiang Chengsi still held a sliver of

hope that he was mistaken about everything.

After all, without Tang Wan awake, there was no evidence; everything remained mere speculation.

IR

His eyes seemed to blaze with fire, holding a frenzied anger that could incinerate everything in the world; Jiang

Shuyan shook with fear, unable to meet his gaze.

After so many years as siblings, seeing her in this state, Jiang Chengsi felt his heart sink!

She was out of her mind, truly daring to do anything. The angrier he got, the more infuriating it was that she

didn’t fight back...

The next second

No one expected Jiang Chengsi to suddenly lash out, his palm striking across her face!

Swift and harsh, with a whopping force.

The slap sent Jiang Shuyan staggering, toppling over a chair and crashing to the ground. The police at the

reception desk were shocked—what was going on? They were resorting to violence now?

One side of Jiang Shuyan’s face was red and swollen, going numb as a buzzing filled her ears. Half-kneeling on

the ground, she looked up at Jiang Chengsi in disbelief.

Even if they weren't close, he had never raised his hand to her before!

"Brother..." Her voice was hoarse, shattering into trembles.

Jiang Chengsi’s fingers loosened then suddenly tensed again, "You're courting death. Do you think that no matter

what wrong you do, father will always be able to clean up after you? I can tell you very responsibly..."

"Today, he can’t protect you!"

Just then, a deep male voice cfrom outside, "What's this aboutnot being able to protect her?"

Jiang Zhaolin had arrived!

"Dad—" Hearing his voice, Jiang Shuyan struggled to her feet, looking as if she had seen her salvation.

They had gone to the mountains for a memorial service in the afternoon, all dressed in black. His eyebrows

furrowed tightly, a fierce anger shooting from his eyes as he glared at Jiang Chengsi with chilling indifference,

"You chased after her car, even smashed it up, and now you've brought the commotion to the police station..."

Jiang Zhaolin’s eyes briefly swept over Jiang Shuyan, "And you hit her? Is this how you act as a brother?"

"Why don’t you ask what she did?"

"What's the big problem that you had to chase her by car? What if there had been an accident!" When Jiang

Zhaolin heard about the car accident, involving both his own son and daughter, his mind went blank, and he

exploded.

"Not answering phone calls and causing trouble as soon as you get home, what are you trying to accomplish? Do

you really want to throw our family into chaos?"

Without waiting for an explanation, Jiang Zhaolin reprimanded Jiang Chengsi fiercely, preemptively setting the

narrative, which is the most dangerous thing.

Jiang Chengsi merely smiled but kept his gaze locked on Jiang Shuyan, who was now hiding behind him, "This is

your last chance. Once you leave this police station today, your life is truly over."

"Scoundrel—"

As soon as Jiang Zhaolin heard that, he was thoroughly infuriated, "Chasing her car, hitting her, and now you

threaten her in front of me? Is this something a person should do?"

He raised his hand with the intention to strike, but the slap never fell, as, on one side, Qi Zeyan, who had been

silent until now, stood up and blocked his arm, "Qi Zeyan, get out of my way!"

"What if | don’t?" Qi Zeyan had rushed over from his company, dressed in a suit, with a slicked-back haircut.

When not smiling or speaking, he actually carried quite an imposing aura.

"This is our family’s business, and it’s none of an outsider’s concern!"

Ruan Mengxi’s lips twitched. She had never seen anyone so brazen in using their power to bully others,

shamelessly asserting themselves with such righteousness!

However, he did block a slap for Jiang Chengsi, and honestly...

If it weren't for liking him, Ruan Mengxi would think this pair of villainous ‘cp’ was truly too perfect to ship!

This kind of defense was like sprinkling sugar.

"You..." Jiang Zhaolin scoffed and lowered his arm, "You're quite something!"

"Thanks for the compliment," Qi Zeyan responded with a smile.

Jiang Chengsi patted his shoulder, signaling him to step aside.

"Chengsi..." He was still worried. They had already caused such an ugly scene, if things got worse today, the

father-son relationship might be irreparably damaged.

"It’s fine, | know where to draw the line," Jiang Chengsi reassured him with a smile.

Qi Zeyan'’s lips twitched fiercely—draw the line?

You've always been more reckless than me! To boldly make such claims here, you really have snerve.
