Jin Xue comprehended that she had fallen into a carefully laid trap!

The Jin family had thoroughly disappointed her, leaving her disheartened.

Her heart turned frigid, and her eyes brimmed with malevolence and hatred.

“Jiang Yu, this isn’t what you think. Grandma deceived me into coming here. This is Jin Yue’s modest apartment. I had no idea Gu Zhou was present.” Jin Xue fought with all her might, forcefully pushing Gu Zhou away.

However, Gu Zhou disregarded her struggles and continued to overpower her with roughness.

Even with Jiang Yu witnessing the scene, he still possessed an intense desire to kiss Jin Xue.

His desperation for Jin Xue resembled possession, consuming his being.

As Jin Xue failed to free herself from Gu Zhou’s clutches, she cried out with eyes reddened, “Jiang Yu, save me!”

Jiang Yu’s expression grew ominously dark, as if danger were on the verge of overflowing. His piercing eyes seemed capable of terminating Jin Xue.

Motionless at the doorway, Jiang Yu waved his hand, commanding his bodyguard, Yang Kai, to enter. Yang Kai swiftly picked up Gu Zhou and threw

him forcefully to the ground.

Having regained her freedom, Jin Xue cared little for the disarray of her attire. She seized her high heels and ruthlessly assaulted Gu Zhou. “If it weren’t for the fact that I would pay with my life for killing someone, Gu Zhou, I would certainly end yours!”

Gu Zhou felt a searing heat coursing through his body, akin to being devoured by swarms of ants.

His entire being throbbed with pain as he knelt, desperately pleading for Jin Xue’s mercy.

“I never intended to harm you. It was Jin Yue!”

Jin Xue glared ferociously at Gu Zhou, her eyes blazing with unbridled anger. “I won’t let anyone who harmed me go unpunished.”

Gu Zhou had never witnessed such a fierce and icy version of Jin Xue before. Fear of Jiang Yu, who remained silent, gripped him intensely. He trembled in terror. “Jin Xue, I’m sorry! I’m sorry! I was wrong, I was despicable, and I was a scoundrel. I will never dare to provoke you again or bother you. Please spare my life.”

“Allowing you to escape would be cruelty to myself!” Jin Xue gritted her teeth, consumed by hatred, and continued her merciless assault on Gu Zhou.

Gu Zhou cried out, “Jin Xue, please stop hitting me. I’ll die!”

Without a shred of hesitation, Jin Xue persisted in her blows.

Meanwhile, Jiang Yu’s other bodyguard dragged Jin Yue into the room and removed the transparent tape covering her mouth.

In an instant, Jin Yue pitifully cried out, “Sister, save me!”

Jin Xue ceased her assault on Gu Zhou, turning her icy gaze toward Jin Yue.

She delivered several sharp slaps to Jin Yue’s face.

Jin Yue’s mouth bled, and her face became inflamed and swollen.

Without a moment’s hesitation, Jin Xue forcefully pushed Jin Yue toward Gu Zhou. “Gu Zhou claimed that you harmed me, Jin Yue. Do you also wish to deny it? I shall grant you an opportunity to explain yourself.”

Jin Yue’s eyes flickered with anxiety, tears welling up within her. Although she struggled, Jiang Yu’s bodyguards firmly held her in place. “Sister, it’s not my fault. Gu Zhou intended to harm you. He slandered me.”

Jiang Yu’s gaze turned cold as she retrieved an envelope and displayed it to Jin Yue. “Didn’t you send someone to deliver this to me? I can bring that person forward to confront you.”

Jin Yue trembled in fear, sobbing uncontrollably.

“Brother-in-law, I was wrong! It was Gu Zhou who deceived me. He claimed that you forced my sister to marry you, when in truth, they were deeply in love. He pleaded with me, so I persuaded Grandma to trick sister into coming here.”

In an instant, Jin Xue delivered a powerful kick to Jin Yue.

She even untied the ropes that bound Jin Yue’s hands.

“The two of you are truly a perfect match. If you don’t end up together, it would be an immense disappointment to me!”

After uttering those words, Jin Xue departed.

Jiang Yu followed suit, and the bodyguards retreated, closing the door behind them.

Jin Yue rose to her feet, attempting to escape, but Gu Zhou abruptly pulled her back.

Through gritted teeth, Gu Zhou declared, “You think you can use me and then run away? Dream on! It’s time for us to settle the score!”

Suddenly, Gu Zhou forcefully threw Jin Yue to the ground, causing her tears to flow even more profusely.

Upon exiting the elevator, Jin Xue was swiftly pulled into the Rolls-Royce by Jiang Yu.

With a ripping sound, Jiang Yu tore apart Jin Xue’s clothing..
