As there were too many people surrounding the overpass, Jiang Haoxuan couldnât even drive his car over. He simply parked his car across the street and jogged over.
In just two to three minutes, Jiang Haoxuan heard someone vaguely mention Sheng Anâningâs name, and his heart sank.
Could it be that he had rejected Sheng Anâning so harshly in the past two days that Sheng Anâning was about to jump off a bridge and commit suicide?!
Thinking back to Sheng Anâningâs previous actions of cutting her wrists, Jiang Haoxuan felt a little panicked.
Although he no longer liked Sheng Anâning, Sheng Anâning was his first love after all. Jiang Haoxuan could never watch Sheng Anâning die.
Jiang Haoxuan ran into the crowd and kept pushing forward. Suddenly, a middle-aged woman in her forties grabbed Jiang Haoxuanâs sleeve and stopped him.
âYoung Man, donât go any further. Thereâs someone with a knife in front of you. Moreover, the police officers are all carrying guns and negotiating with the other party. If the bullets suddenly fly away, itâll be dangerous for you to go over.â
Jiang Haoxuan was stunned when he heard that. A person with a knife...
Wasnât it Sheng Anâning who committed suicide?!
Although Sheng Anâningâs pure and innocent image had long collapsed in Jiang Haoxuanâs heart, Sheng Anâning was clearly a weak and delicate little girl. Jiang Haoxuan would never have thought that the person with the knife was Sheng Anâning.
âMy friends are inside. I have to go there!â
Jiang Haoxuan shook his head at the middle-aged woman. Without waiting for her reply, he rushed over directly.
Sure enough, there were police officers in front to maintain order. A bunch of onlookers were surrounded outside, and no one could take another step forward.
Jiang Haoxuan wanted to run over, but was stopped by a police officer. âThere are negotiations ahead. You canât go over!â
When the commander heard the voice, he suddenly turned his head. He recognized Jiang Haoxuanâs appearance, and his eyes instantly lit up.
âThatâs young master Jiang. Miss Su called him over. Quickly tell him to come over!â
The police officer who stopped him was stunned, and the surrounding crowd couldnât help but start whispering. Those who had come early and watched for a long time had already imagined a scene of two women fighting over a man.
Now that the main character had arrived, they were even more excited to gossip. If not for the police officer stopping them, the scene would have boiled into a pot of hot water.
When Jiang Haoxuan rushed over, he was stunned as soon as he stepped on the overpass!
The scene seven or eight meters away almost made Jiang Haoxuanâs heart stop beating!
How could this be?!
Why would Sheng Anâning hold a knife and even hold Lin Feiâer as a hostage?!
âHaoxuan!â
Su Wan heard footsteps behind her and immediately turned around. She looked at Jiang Haoxuan, who was not far away, and her voice was full of surprise.
âSis-in-law, whatâs going on?! Anâning and Lin Feiâer...â
Jiang Haoxuan was startled awake by Su Wanâs shout and immediately ran to Su Wanâs side.
Jiang Haoxuan looked at Sheng Anâning in disbelief. He glanced at the blood stains on Lin Feiâerâs hands and face, and the veins on his forehead throbbed non-stop.
There had never been a moment like this that left Jiang Haoxuan in shock and pain.
Su Wan pursed her lips with difficulty and smiled bitterly at Jiang Haoxuan.
âAs you can see, Feiâer is being held hostage by Anâning. Whether Anâning can come to her senses now will depend on you.â
Sheng Anâning watched coldly as Su Wan and Jiang Haoxuan conversed. Her scarlet eyes were filled with even more complicated emotions at that moment.
She had always thought that she liked Jiang Xuecheng.
However, when Jiang Haoxuan rejected her yesterday and said that he did not miss her at all, Sheng Anâning finally understood that she could not leave Jiang Haoxuan.
She was already used to having someone following behind her and treating her well.
If one day, that man wanted to marry another woman, she would risk the rest of her life to destroy that woman and the child of his and the woman!
Didnât Jiang Haoxuan say that he loved her?
Since he loved her, why could he change his mind and fall in love with someone else?!
âHaoxuan...â
Recalling the past, Sheng Anâningâs ferocious face softened a little. A trace of exhaustion flashed across her eyes as she called out Jiang Haoxuanâs name in a hoarse voice.
âHaoxuan, is it a little late if I said that I like you now?â
Jiang Haoxuan looked at Sheng Anâningâs neurotic expression and his gaze unconsciously fell on Lin Feiâer, who was beside Sheng Anâning.
Lin Feiâer looked much more miserable than Sheng Anâning. She just stared at him without saying a word or crying. It was as if she was telling Jiang Haoxuan to stay calm and not go against Sheng Anâningâs words.
Jiang Haoxuanâs lips trembled slightly. He shook his head reluctantly and smiled at Sheng Anâning.
âItâs not too late. You said that you like me, so Iâm very happy. Anâning, put down the knife first. Letâs talk about the knot in your heart slowly, okay?!â
âNonsense, you donât look happy at all!â
Hearing Jiang Haoxuanâs words, which were obviously meant to cheer her up, Sheng Anâning was even more agitated. She picked up the knife and gestured at Lin Feiâerâs face.
âHaoxuan, why did you change your mind?! Look, whatâs so good about this woman? Why would you rather marry her than me?â
âSheâs just a woman who was abandoned by a man. In terms of looks, sheâs far inferior to me. In terms of family background, sheâs even lower than the dust. In terms of talent and temperament, sheâs even worse than the mud in the dirt! Compared to her, Iâve already lowered my standards!â
These words were like a sharp knife stabbing into Jiang Haoxuanâs heart. He felt a piercing pain in his heart, and even his hands couldnât help but tremble.
He had loved a girl for more than ten years. He thought that she was as pure as the moonlight. Why must she tear apart that little bit of beauty of the past?!
For the sake of expediency, Jiang Haoxuan could only follow Sheng Anâningâs instructions and speak.
âAnâning! Lin Feiâer is not as good as you. I promise you that I wonât marry Lin Feiâer. put down the knife and let her go alone, okay?â
Jiang Haoxuan spoke softly to Sheng Anâning, the pleading look in his eyes almost overflowing.
âDo you think I canât tell that youâre protecting her?! Haoxuan, donât lie to me! Youâre just trying to trick me into letting this bitch go!â
Sheng Anâningâs facial features contorted as she laughed maniacally. It was hard to see the slightest bit of beauty on her hideous face.
With every word Sheng Anâning said, Jiang Haoxuan felt as if someone had stabbed him in the heart.
However, what made Jiang Haoxuan even more afraid was that Sheng Anâning actually picked up the knife in a crazed manner and continued to cut at Lin Feiâerâs neck!
Fresh blood dripped down Lin Feiâerâs slender neck, looking extremely horrifying!
Seeing that her knife was about to reach Lin Feiâerâs carotid artery, Su Wan was scared out of her wits. She quickly shouted at Sheng Anâning.
âAnâning! How could Haoxuan lie to you! Feiâer was already prepared to reject his proposal. Weâll agree to it. Letâs go abort Feiâerâs baby right now and get married to Haoxuan, okay?â
