Jiang Shangxin pushed the door open and entered, just like how she had visited Jiang Zhuliu countless times in the past.
The difference was that Jiang Zhuliu did not stand up to welcome her this time.
Jiang Zhuliu sat behind his desk and stared coldly at Jiang Shangxin, who was walking in gracefully. With a face full of mockery, he said, "Isn't this my wife? It's been a long time. It's strange that it's so difficult to see my wife … "
Jiang Shangxin did not respond to Jiang Zhuliu's question. She walked straight to the sofa area in the office and sat down. Then, she pressed the service bell.
The secretary, Lili, pushed the door open and asked, "Chairman Jiang, what can I do for you?"
Jiang Zhuliu waved his hands and gestured for Lili to leave. Jiang Shangxin said, "Bring me a cup of coffee. You know my taste. "
"Okay, Miss Jiang …" The secretary knew that there was a conflict between the chairman and Jiang Shangxin, but she did not know the extent of it. In her opinion, wasn't it normal for a married couple to quarrel? As for the chairman's wife's request, she naturally had to do her best to satisfy it.
The secretary left and quickly brought in a cup of freshly ground Americano black coffee with a spoonful of milk and half a spoonful of sugar. This was Jiang Shangxin's usual taste.
Jiang Shangxin took the black coffee and took a deep breath. She smiled and said, "Thank you, Lili. You know me better than a man …"
"Miss Jiang, you are too polite." Lili could tell that there was something wrong with his tone. She looked at Jiang Zhuliu with an aggrieved expression and left hurriedly.
Jiang Zhuliu leaned against the back of the chair and looked at Jiang Shangxin, who was sitting a distance away, enjoying the coffee. He said, "You left in a hurry the last time, but you came back openly this time. I was still waiting for the news that you were safe after landing in Paris. In the end, you ran away with another man. I don't know where you went. What do you want to say this time? Lay all your cards on the table? Prepare to divorce me? "
Jiang Shangxin took a small sip of her coffee and said, "I ran away in a hurry the other time because there was a mad dog chasing after me. It was still bearable to let him bite my finger, but if I were to get bitten on my throat, I might not be able to keep my life. How could I not run away? "
Jiang Zhuliu laughed heartily. He stood up and walked toward the resting area where Jiang Shangxin was. He looked into her eyes and said, "A mad dog is still a mad dog. Aren't you afraid of getting your throat bitten off by a mad dog? "
"That would depend on whether a mad dog is willing to eat it."
"Why?" Jiang Zhuliu stared at Jiang Shangxin's slender neck and said, "Did you smear poison on your neck? If there really is one, Mad Dog wouldn't mind trying — "
As Jiang Zhuliu spoke, he had already sat down beside Jiang Shangxin and reached out to stroke her neck.
Jiang Shangxin avoided his lecherous hands and said, "It's because I have the dog-beating stick. If a dog dares to bare its teeth at me, I'll hit it with a stick. "
Jiang Zhuliu stopped what he was doing and stared at Jiang Shangxin with a burning gaze. "Is that so? I'm really curious, what kind of dog beating stick is it? "
"Take a guess?"
Jiang Zhuliu sat up straight and crossed his arms in a business-like manner. He said, "Jiang Shangxin, since you're here today, you're naturally not here to reminisce about old times with me. Tell me, what is your purpose for coming here? "
"Are you scared? Are you anxious? " Jiang Shangxin looked at Jiang Zhuliu and said, "Actually, it's nothing much, I'm just here to humiliate you."
Jiang Zhuliu was stunned for a moment, then he laughed heartily. He looked at Jiang Shangxin and said, "This way of speaking is very familiar, it sounds like someone — let me think, who is it?"
"Are you talking about Fang Yan?"
"Yes, Fang Yan." Jiang Zhuliu smiled and nodded, saying, "His way of speaking is always so simple and direct. He doesn't hide anything and goes straight to the point, ruthlessly stabbing a person in the chest. No matter how much time has passed, every time I think about it, my heart will ache faintly. I didn't expect that after not seeing you for only a few days, you would learn some of his essence."
"That proves that I'm quite talented." Jiang Shangxin smiled and said. "Jiang Zhuliu, you're so smart, you must have known that this day would come, right?"
"What kind of day?" Jiang Zhuliu wasn't afraid of Jiang Shangxin's threat and said, "I work in the president's office on the top floor of a building worth tens of billions of dollars. I can see the entire city from the floor-to-ceiling windows, and there's a beautiful secretary at the door who satisfies all my requests. As long as I need her, she's willing to take off her clothes and kneel in front of me — I can decide the fate of tens of thousands of people with a single sentence, and I can make many people lose sleep at night with a glance. Jiang Shangxin, I knew that this day would come — I just didn't expect it to come so soon. "
"So, you didn't hesitate to kill your own father with your own hands?" Jiang Shangxin asked coldly. She didn't treat this man as a human, but as a biting dog, an extremely aggressive beast.
Jiang Zhuliu's expression was ferocious and he said, "I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you. I really didn't kill my father — it was Fang Yan, your new boyfriend. Don't be fooled by his gentle and refined appearance, he's ruthless and vicious. As your husband, I still have to warn you. Be careful that he doesn't eat you up and kick you away, swallowing you up to the point where not even your bones are left. "
"Thank you for your kindness." Jiang Shangxin said. "You really are a dutiful ex-husband."
"Ex-husband?" Jiang Zhuliu laughed and said, "I really didn't intend to divorce you. Although you have a new man, I love you so much, how can I bear to let you leave me? Shangxin, do you know? You're my most precious asset now. No matter what happens, I want to be with you — "
Jiang Shangxin stirred the coffee in the cup with a steel spoon. After hearing what Jiang Zhuliu said, she giggled and tucked her long hair behind her ear. She said, "Jiang Zhuliu, did you think that I came here today to lay all my cards on the table and divorce you? Did I want to take away half of your family's wealth?"
"This has nothing to do with money, I just can't imagine how I can survive without you —" Jiang Zhuliu said such touching words of love, but his gaze toward Jiang Shangxin was filled with hatred and coldness.
He knew very well that the wife he had married was not a kind person.
In the past, he wasn't afraid. On the contrary, he felt that such a wife would have the desire to conquer. However, as the situation developed, he already felt that it was difficult for him to control her.
The previous time when he sent her off at the airport, he had bitten one of her fingers. After that, she eloped with Fang Yan, which proved that she was clear about the situation she would face when she went to Paris. Now, she was back to take revenge.
"If that's what you think, then you're underestimating me." Jiang Shangxin chuckled and said. "We are husband and wife. All of your assets belong to us. Although you don't have enough shares in the Longtu Group now, you will have more or less some. If you go to jail and go to the police station, won't all these shares fall into my hands? Divorce? How is that possible? Jiang Zhuliu, when you are in danger, I will not leave you no matter what. "
Jiang Shangxin stared at Jiang Zhuliu fiercely, and her voice was filled with endless hatred. She said, "I will always be by your side, I will take away everything from you, I will make you have nothing. Why do you want to divorce? Even if you take away half of the assets after the divorce, you will still have the other half. I don't want to wait until you are released from prison to have a lot of money for you to squander. Jiang Zhuliu, I hope that you die in prison. Even if you are released, I want you to become a beggar on the streets. You are a good husband, and I have to work hard to be a good wife. Are you satisfied with this? "
"The premise of you saying all this is that I will go to prison. If I don't go to prison, everything will still be in my hands, and you will still not get anything. You can forget about taking away Longtu from me. "
"It is also my duty to send you to prison." Jiang Shangxin said calmly.
"In that case, you already have evidence in your hands that can throw me into prison?"
"Yes." Jiang Shangxin said. "I think it is enough."
"If you have evidence, you can just hand it over to the police station. Is there a need to tell me all this?" Jiang Zhuliu's face turned green and he said, "Moreover, I will transfer the assets that belong to me to my relatives. I will let you have everything …"
"Your relatives? Transfer to who? " Jiang Shangxin's face was full of disdain. She said, "If you really treat them as your relatives, then don't harm them. If you give your assets to your mother, do you think they will let her off? Your father's death has already given her a fatal blow. If you give your shares to her, you will be forcing her to a dead end. However, I quite agree with you doing this, because you will realize that not only will you have nothing, but you will also have no relatives in this world … "
"Jiang Shangxin …" Jiang Zhuliu shouted at Jiang Shangxin.
He pressed Shangxin's palm down and said, "Sit down, sit down quietly. I have already said that I am here to humiliate you. The angrier you are, the more I feel satisfied. The more I feel, the better I feel. "
Jiang Zhuliu's eyes were bloodshot with violence. He stared at Jiang Shangxin with a stern expression and said, "You should know that I can make you disappear from this world directly. Tell me, if I push you down from this building and say that you jumped down yourself, do you think others will believe me?"
