Chapter 505: 322 Madness: Only after getting slapped in the face do you realize the pain (4 more Chapters)

Ever since Mr. Xie was hospitalized, Taotao took a fall, and their relationship rapidly deteriorated, Shen Zhixian’s relentless pressure had begun to break Du Jinglan, even causing her to lose her usual calm.

Trapped like a turtle in a jar, her collapse had reached its limit. Unexpectedly, Jiang Yanting delivered another harsh blow—

The head she offered up was her own initiative!

How ridiculous!

"Mrs. Xie, you act very cautiously..." Jiang Jinsang lifted his hand to tug at the thin blanket on his knee, "You lost because you’re too meticulous. You try to account for everything, terrified of what might happen. If you hadn’t contacted her, even if we knew the ghost in the Xie Family was you, we couldn’t do anything to you."

Du Jinglan remained silent.

The moment she had seen Jiang Chengsi, she knew deep down that it was all over.

She had thought, could the Jiangs really have such vast reach, able to investigate matters so long past and far away overseas?

But it turned out...

"Sister-in-law, things have reached this point, and we both know the truth. Is there anything else you need to explain?" Shen Zhixian looked at her.

Thinking that by this stage there would be some resolution, Du Jinglan gritted her teeth and looked towards her:

"Evidence?"

Tang Wan stood at the side, letting out a slight sigh. At this point, still desperately clinging on.

Shen Zhixian chuckled softly, "You still want evidence?"

"In everything, we need evidence. You can’t just bring someone forward and claim I conspired with her to harm you. Who knows if this isn’t slander? Even if this matter gets taken up to the old master or the police station, I would still demand evidence..."

"Now, throughout all of Beijing, public opinion is completely... Shen Zhixian, you repay grievances with virtue, joining forces with the Jiang Family, causing the old master to faint from anger, and now you frame and entrap me!"

"If there is no solid evidence, which way do you think the wind will blow in Beijing?"

Du Jinglan wasn’t a fool. She was always meticulous in her actions, not leaving any handle to be seized by that Fo Jie, so she indeed had no fear.

"So, you admit to this?" Shen Zhixian stared her down intently.

"Either you bring the evidence and sue me, or..."

But Du Jinglan’s words were suddenly cut off as Shen Zhixian abruptly lifted her arm and delivered a slap to her face.

It was already past midnight, the dead of night, and the quiet was terrifying. With trembling hands, the slap didn’t land solidly on her face, but the sound was crisp and echoed loudly.
