Jo Anan was awakened by a stranglehold. As she opened her eyes, she saw Jiang Huai’s ghastly eyes staring at her fixedly.
White of her eyes overturned in fright, Jo Anan’s fingers clutching tightly at Jiang Huai’s hand, which was throttling her throat, "Brother-in-law..."
On hearing her laboured address, Jiang Huai's eyes narrowed briefly before kicking her off the bed, "Jo Anan, you're courting death!" The woman actually had the audacity to drug him!
Barely having time to breathe, Jo Anan immediately fled to the corner, compacting herself into a ball. She was incredibly anxious; Jiang Huai definitely wanted to kill her just now.
She looked at Jiang Huai in fear, finding him already getting dressed, an icy aura emanating off him that was enough to freeze anyone. Picking up the much mutilated dress from the floor, she nervously asked, "Brother-in-law, wouldn't you be late to your engagement banquet with sister today?"
Jiang Huai ignored her, striding out without a word after dressing.
"Wouldn't it be grand if our situation was broadcasted live at the wedding!"
Jiang Huai's steps faltered. He turned abruptly, his dark gaze falling on Jo Anan. "What did you say?"
Clamping her lower lip tightly, Jo Anan trembled as she stood up, appearing innocent as she looked at Jiang Huai, "Brother-in-law, I recorded everything. It's scheduled to be posted online at 11 o'clock. If I don't cancel it, then at 11, the recording will be uploaded to the internet."
Jiang Huai rushed over with large strides, grabbing Jo Anan’s throat. With a bang, Jo Anan’s head smashed directly into the wall, causing tears of pain to well up in her eyes.
"You're threatening me!" The Bei An Group was about to have a shareholders' meeting. If a scandal was exposed about Jiang Huai at this time, it could put the company in unnecessary jeopardy.
Jo Anan looked at him innocently, "Brother-in-law… As long as you are with me, I guarantee that this recording will never be leaked."
Narrowing his eyes as he sized up Jo Anan. He had only met her twice, both times for dinner with Jo Mingzhu, claiming it to be an ‘accidental’ encounter. Now thinking about it, the chances of it being an ’accident’ seemed slim. "Snatching your own sister's fiance, you're quite the sister.”
A grin spread across Jo Anan's face, "Who can blame me for liking my brother-in-law?"
"Shut up." Jiang Huai shot her a cold glance. Drugging him, then filming, and now threatening him. The women of the Jo family were no easy opponents. "Say what you want."
Once free, Qiao Anan immediately stepped back, revealing a pleasing smile to Jiang Huai, "Like I said, all I want is you."
Jiang Huai looked at Qiao Anan candidly and replied, "I don't want you."
Qiao Anan was taken aback for a moment, but she promptly raised her arm, hooking it around Jiang Huai's neck, "Though I may not look great, I assure you, I can make up for it with skills." She smiled innocently, raising her leg to loop around Jiang Huai's waist.
Jiang Huai gripped Qiao Anan's chin, chuckling disdainfully, "You're only worth being a mistress."
Qiao Anan's face turned pale, but she immediately laughed it off, "As long as I'm yours, I'm happy."
Jiang Huai roughly tilted up Qiao Anan's chin, forcing her to meet his eyes, "A hundred thousand a month, is that enough for you?"
"I don't want money. I want you."
"As you wish." Jiang Huai, tired of her, pushed her away, fixing his tie, and headed towards the exit.
Just when Qiao Anan thought she could breathe, she heard Jiang Huai's icy voice, "If I ever find out that you've been scheming against me, I'll make you regret it for the rest of your life."
Bang! The door of the suite was slammed shut, Qiao Anan lost her strength, collapsing to the floor.
Playing mind games with someone like Jiang Huai, she felt like she was treading a thin line between life and death.
Beep, beep, beep... The sudden ring from her phone echoed in the room; it was from Qiao Yueming.
With a cold sneer, Qiao Anan answered the phone, "What is it?"
"Today is your sister's engagement banquet, where the hell are you? Get your ass back here now!"
"Don't worry, I'll be there on time."
