The CEO's wife, suffering from terminal cancer, is filled with regret!

"You are an adult, and you should pay the price for your actions!"

After Shen Zhixia finished speaking, she bent down and grabbed my hand, trying to pull me to apologize to Xu Jin.

I forcefully pulled my hand away from Shen Zhixia's and said coldly, "Shen Zhixia, don't try to make me take the blame for something I didn't do."

"you……"

Just as Shen Zhixia was about to speak, my voice rang out again, frantic and resolute, "Are you trying to threaten me with Meng Jinghuai again?"

"Shen Zhixia, don't push me, or you might see me jumping off a tall building!"

When Shen Zhixia, who was standing in front of me, saw the determination and ruthlessness on my face, her whole body stiffened. She never expected that Ji Nanchen would turn around and threaten her.

Could it be that what happened today really wasn't his doing?

The thought had barely crossed her mind when Shen Zhixia dismissed it.

Xu Jin couldn't possibly be that kind of person!

What happened today could only have been done by Ji Nanchen.

Thinking of this, Shen Zhixia tightened her grip on her side. "Do you think you can threaten me?"

Although that's what she said, her actions weren't as forceful as before.

"Ji Nanchen, since you're so unwilling to apologize to Xu Jin, then go through everything he just suffered!"

After saying that, she turned to look directly at Wang Ma, who was standing at the door of the master bedroom, unsure whether to leave, and said, "Wang Ma, go and bring me another bowl of white fungus soup."

"Yes."

After regaining her senses, Wang Ma hurriedly turned around and went downstairs.

She thought about what the young lady had just said and couldn't help but feel uneasy.

In this situation, it's impossible that the young lady was serving Mr. Ji the white fungus soup; therefore, she must have intended to splash it on him.

Her expression changed, and she quickly decided that when she served the white fungus soup later, she would secretly cool it with cold water so as not to scald Mr. Ji.

Since she was transferred here to cook by the young lady, she hasn't had much contact with Mr. Ji, but he doesn't seem like a bad person.

Moreover, Miss cares about Mr. Ji very much deep down, but she may not realize it yet.

She sighed helplessly, and her pace quickened unconsciously.

In the master bedroom, I propped myself up to stand up and look Shen Zhixia in the eye. "Shen Zhixia, if... if one day you find out that all of this was orchestrated by Xu Jin, would you... treat him the same way you treated me?"

I spoke very softly, so softly that I didn't even expect Shen Zhixia to hear me or reply.

But she did hear it.

When she heard this, her breathing became noticeably heavier for a moment, but she acted as if she hadn't heard it at all, completely ignoring what I said.

Shen Zhixia didn't know why, but she felt uneasy when she heard these words.

But the next second, she forcibly suppressed this feeling of unease.

Ji Nanchen is saying these things now just to play the victim with her.

Only someone with a dark and sinister mind like him would do such a thing. Xu Jincai is not that kind of person; he would never do such a thing.

"Dong dong dong."

The sound of Wang Ma climbing the stairs seemed particularly loud in the quiet atmosphere of the master bedroom.

I trembled slightly, hesitating whether to run away later, but I didn't want to leave.

Anyway, I don't have much time left, so I'll just have to bear with it.

If I just bear with it, Meng Jinghuai and the others will no longer be implicated by me.

Soon, Wang Ma brought a bowl of white fungus soup to Shen Zhixia's side. "Miss, here is your white fungus soup."

"Ah."

Shen Zhixia glanced at her sideways, then turned her gaze back to me. "Ji Nanchen, I'll ask you one last time, are you really not going to apologize to Xu Jin?"

"Why should I apologize to him for something I didn't do?"

I stiffened my neck and stared intently at the woman standing in front of me.

The next second, Shen Zhixia poured the slightly warm bowl of white fungus soup directly at me.

The white fungus soup was very sticky. When it was splashed on me, I felt like all the blood in my body was flowing backward, and a chill spread to my limbs.

I chuckled and looked up at Shen Zhixia. "Are you satisfied now?"

"not yet."

After uttering two cold words, Shen Zhixia gripped the bowl tightly and slammed it hard against my forehead.

When I saw her actually make a move, my pupils contracted sharply, and I instinctively dodged away.

I dodged Shen Zhixia's all-out attack, but due to inertia, I couldn't control my strength and crashed into the bookshelf next to me.

The bookcase wobbled from my bump, and the vase on the top shelf fell and hit the back of my head.

I couldn't help but yell out in pain, my right hand trembling as I reached for the back of my head and touched something warm and sticky.

I was hit by a vase and started bleeding...

"boom!"

The vase fell to the ground and shattered into pieces instantly.

The next second, Shen Zhixia, who was standing in front of me, suddenly shouted at me with a drastically changed expression, "Watch out!"

Before I could react, the bookshelf behind me had already toppled over towards me—

"Oh!"

"what!"

The solid wood bookcase crashed down with a loud bang, and my screams echoed throughout the entire villa.

I was pinned under the bookshelf, and my whole body ached from being crushed.

Bright red blood flowed down my forehead and dripped into my eyes, blurring my vision.

I can't quite make out Shen Zhixia's appearance anymore.

“Ji… Ji Nanchen…”

I vaguely heard Shen Zhixia's exclamation, but I couldn't care less about her at all.

I gasped in pain and tried to get up, but the heavy bookshelf pressed down on me, preventing me from moving an inch.

I felt my vision getting blurrier and blurrier. Blood was flowing down my forehead, mixed with my normal tears, soaking my neck and clothes.

It hurts so much!

The solid wood bookcase is really heavy. Right now, I'm in so much pain from the weight of it, and even moving feels like I'm dying.

Shen Zhixia, is this the punishment you wanted me to suffer?

I lay on the ground, panting heavily, letting bright red blood flow down my cheeks. Feeling the heat of the crimson blood was like feeling my remaining life slowly slipping away.

Shen Zhixia stood in front of me, looking at me with some panic. Her hand, which was at her side, trembled slightly with fear when she saw me breathing heavily.

At this moment, her mind, which was initially clouded by anger, gradually regained its rationality.

What did she just do?

She wanted to hit Ji Nanchen on the head with a porcelain bowl to teach him a lesson, but he dodged it and bumped into a bookshelf instead...

When Shen Zhixia came to her senses, she saw a bright red bloodstain on the ground. Her pupils contracted sharply, and her whole body began to tremble slightly.

She walked up to Ji Nanchen and bowed, "How...how are you?"

For some reason, Shen Zhixia felt that the unease that had been lingering in her heart was getting worse.

She reached out with trembling hands as if to move the bookshelf that was pressing down on me, but I thought she was going to hit me again. I stared at her with mocking eyes and said, "Shen Zhixia, isn't that enough?"

I'm already so badly injured, isn't that enough for you to vent your anger?

When are you going to stop torturing me?
