Quick Transmigration: The Villain is Destiny, the Protagonist Takes a Backseat

He Chongguang also sensed Su Qiao's dislike for him.

He concealed his disgust for the middle-aged woman and put on a refined and courteous demeanor.

"You're welcome, Auntie. Shui Shui's affairs are my affairs. I had to come and visit Uncle Jiang since he was in trouble. I just don't know what happened to him."

It would have been better if he hadn't asked that question; once he did, Su Qiao became furious and embarrassed.

"You're being way too nosy! You're not even married to my Shui Shui yet, and you're already meddling in our family's affairs. You have no manners at all!"

He Chongguang, who was inexplicably attacked, tried to hold back, but finally couldn't maintain his composure.

"It's my fault. I shouldn't have meddled. I'll leave now."

After saying that, He Chongguang looked at Jiang Shui with extreme disappointment and left without looking back.

"Chongguang...Mom!"

Jiang Shui watched her boyfriend leave in anger, then turned back and glared resentfully at Su Qiao.

"Have you lost your mind? Chongguang came to visit Dad out of kindness, why are you saying such things about him?"

“What did I say about him?” Su Qiao also felt wronged. “Wasn’t what I said the truth? He’s just an outsider, and you’re talking about your mother like that because of an outsider.”

She was extremely disappointed. "You unfilial daughter!"

Shen Liuyun and Ji Qiuzhe stood quietly to the side, watching the mother and daughter fight like dogs.

"Anyway, you're not allowed to say that about him. He's the man I love most. If you can't accept him, then you might as well not acknowledge me at all." Jiang Shui spoke without any restraint in a moment of passion.

“You…” Su Qiao almost fainted from anger.

"Alright! Stop making noise!" Jiang Shuihang, who had finally regained consciousness, struggled to shout towards the door from inside the ward.

"husband!"

Su Qiao couldn't care less about arguing with Jiang Shui now. She rushed back to the ward and stayed by Jiang Shuihang's side, asking, "How are you? Is anything bothering you?"

"cough--"

Jiang Shuihang, feeling dizzy and lightheaded, was helped back to lie down. "I won't die..."

"It's such a pity I couldn't let you die." Shen Liuyun followed into the ward, looking at Jiang Shuihang with regret.

"You, why are you here?"

Jiang Shuihang seemed not to have expected Shen Liuyun to come along, and was almost so frightened that his surgical wound ruptured.

"If I hadn't come along, how could I have seen you looking half-dead?"

Shen Liuyun was very satisfied with his masterpiece. If Ji Qiuzhe hadn't stopped him from killing, he would have really wanted to pay with his life to end this disgusting man.

"What did you say?"

Jiang Shui looked at Shen Liuyun in disbelief, "You're saying you beat Dad up like this? Shen Liuyun, are you out of your mind?!"

“Your father has been so good to you. Even though you’re an ungrateful wretch and haven’t come home once in all these years, he’s still been silently watching over you, afraid that you’ll suffer alone out there. I think you really should take some medicine to cure your mental illness!”

"Ah……"

Shen Liuyun laughed when he heard this.

Unexpectedly, his smile completely enraged Jiang Shui.

"How dare you laugh? Why are you picking on your father? Don't you have a heart?"

"Don't you and your mother know why I am?" Shen Liuyun looked down at her younger sister, whom she had once genuinely loved and cared for.

"I've been emphasizing the reasons since I was little, do you believe me now?"

"I……"

Jiang Shui felt guilty for a moment, but then she became self-righteous and convinced that Shen Liuyun had said it on purpose to make her feel guilty.

"Don't make excuses for your inhumanity. You can't even come up with a decent lie."

Ji Qiuzhe couldn't stand it anymore.

“Miss Jiang, I saw that man sneak into Liu Yun’s room last night with malicious intent. Forgive me for speaking frankly, but he deserved to be beaten like this.”

"How could that be?" Jiang Shui looked at Ji Qiuzhe with a skeptical gaze. "I don't believe it. You're in cahoots with him. What you say has no credibility whatsoever."

"Why don't you ask your dear mother? After all, she was there too."

Ji Qiuzhe paused after saying this, "Of course, if she's willing to tell the truth."

"Mom?" Jiang Shui looked at Su Qiao anxiously, wanting an answer.

“He’s talking nonsense…” Su Qiao’s eyes darted away, avoiding Jiang Shui’s gaze. “They’re slandering him. Your father Jiang just went into the wrong room last night…”

However, Jiang Shui knew her own mother very well, and she immediately saw through the clues in Su Qiao's flickering eyes, feeling as if her worldview was about to shatter.

"You lied to me?" She staggered back two steps. "So what he said was actually true."

Jiang Shui looked at Jiang Shuihang, who was lying on the bed breathing heavily and wanted to say something but couldn't open his mouth. Jiang Shuihang looked at him with disappointment.

"You guys...you've really disappointed me!"

After saying that, she wiped away her tears, turned around, and ran out of the ward.

"Tax! Tax!"

Su Qiao called out, but couldn't bring back her daughter who only wanted to escape.

It's all Shen Liuyun's fault. If he hadn't been so unreasonable, things wouldn't have turned out this way!

Su Qiao glared at Shen Liuyun with hatred: "Now, are you satisfied?"

Shen Liuyun found it utterly absurd; he was a victim, yet he was being treated as a perpetrator.

Even with the facts right in front of him, he couldn't feel a single bit of guilt from this biological mother. Ironically, he still harbored a tiny bit of expectation in his heart.

"satisfy."

He smiled wryly, "I'm quite satisfied. Seeing you all suffer makes me happy."

"You beast, get out of here, and I'll pretend I never had you!"

Su Qiao's chest heaved violently with anger, her gentle face twisted into a terrifying grimace.

"Okay, I'll let you go."

There is no greater sorrow than a broken heart. Shen Liuyun closed her eyes in anguish and finally made up her mind to sever ties.

"Sign a 'severance of ties' agreement now, and from now on, we'll have nothing to do with each other!"

“Okay! But you have to pay me 50 million in alimony in one lump sum,” Su Qiao stated her condition.

Even knowing that this woman no longer considered him her son, Shen Liuyun still felt an overwhelming sense of suffocation at this moment.

Ji Qiuzhe noticed that he was about to lose control of his emotions, so he stepped forward and protected him behind him.

"give it to me?"

Feeling the other person's dependent hand on their arm, they tacitly accepted the suggestion.

He then said to Su Qiao, "Five hundred thousand. After you sign the termination agreement, we'll go to have it notarized. Not a penny more."

"Five hundred thousand? You think you can give me a beggar's money?!" Su Qiao refused to budge. "Fifty million it is, not a penny less!"

Ji Qiuzhe didn't look at her again, but instead looked past her at Jiang Shuihang, who had been silent all along.

Husband and wife are one; if they can't handle Su Qiao, they can handle Jiang Shuihang just as well.

"Mr. Jiang probably doesn't know, but I have evidence of your crime last night. You should understand that if Liu Yun is determined to sue you, you'll be in jail within three months."

He then changed the subject: "Of course, if you agree to the conditions I propose, I can not sue you, provided that you also do not pursue the matter of Liu Yun hitting you."
