Chapter 285: Chapter 283: Killing to Strike Fear into the Heart!

Killing someone is to cut them to the heart!

That’s what her mother taught her.

Xiao Jinglan said that what Xia Wenjin wanted the most right now was the status of the XJ Corporation regional vice president’s wife.

That’s why that bitch was desperately provoking her, making a scene that everyone knew about, so that Xiao Mo would divorce Xia Wenjin, and Justin would also divorce her because of her frivolous behavior.

By then, that bitch would have succeeded.

But if she ignored Justin’s and Xia Wenjin’s affairs and held onto her position, then Xia Wenjin could only be a mistress!

And she would be a mistress for life!

Thinking this, Song Keren felt secretly thrilled.

She tilted her chin up, looking at Xia Wenjin, “To think that the Lu Family’s daughter has become a mistress, tsk tsk… how shameless!”

Xia Wenjin obviously hadn’t expected Song Keren to suddenly change her attitude, let alone that she would come specifically to block her way and say these words.

She raised her hand and slapped Song Keren’s face.

Song Keren didn’t react in time, and her face took a solid slap, followed by the two grabbing each other’s hair and instantly scuffling.

Originally, the spot where the two of them were standing was a corner with little attention, but such an unseemly struggle and loud quarrel made it difficult not to attract attention.

Just as everyone started looking over, suddenly, from the corner, several bodyguards sprang out and dragged both Song Keren and Xia Wenjin out.

The bodyguards were so fast that many people didn’t even get a clear look at who was fighting before the two disappeared amidst the imposing group of bodyguards.

“Was that Xia Wenjin just now?” Xia Wenyan rubbed his slightly warm neck and frowned uncomfortably.

He had been feeling a bit thirsty and parched since a while ago.

He suspected that he had dressed too warmly today.

Xia Wenyan subconsciously tugged at his collar, and the flushed neck and unusual expression made Pei Huai frown.

Of course, he saw clearly who the two women fighting in the corner were.

Ever since he was reborn, he had taken into his hands the maternal family’s power that he had scorned in his previous life.

With these people on his side, his activities within the Shangjing Circle were like a fish in water.

To prevent the occurrences of his previous life from happening again, he had people keep an eye on Xia Wenjin.

He knew she would attend this charity auction, but despite that, he hadn’t received any news related to her, and yet Xia Wenyan had been affected.

What exactly happened?

He carefully recalled everything that had happened before Xia Wenyan’s incident.

Almost all the food he ate came from his mouth, and many of them were even shared with Lu Zhaozhao.

Lu Zhaozhao seemed to be fine now, but why was Xia Wenyan…

Suddenly, Pei Huai seemed to have thought of something.

It was that glass of juice!

His eyes narrowed slightly; at that time, the juice had been brought to him by Xia Wenmo, and he wouldn’t act against his own sister.

So it had to be tampered with while he was getting the juice.

Thinking this, Pei Huai immediately turned to Xia Wenyan and said, “You’re dressed a bit too warmly, there are rooms in the hotel upstairs, you should go change your clothes.”

He tried to look calm as he looked at Xia Wenyan.

It was obvious that he didn’t know he had been drugged.

Sure enough, Xia Wenyan nodded, feeling it wasn’t just a problem of feeling hot.

But his brain also seemed to be sluggish.

He usually followed Pei Huai, feeling as though no matter what trouble he got into, Pei Huai could help him settle it.

Thinking this, Xia Wenyan followed directly behind Pei Huai, and the two went onto the elevator, one after the other.

But at this moment, Xia Wenyan already felt his feet go soft, as if he was stepping on clouds.

He simply leaned on Pei Huai’s body, “Brother Pei, I feel a bit uncomfortable…I, I think something isn’t quite right with me.”

Xia Wenyan wanted to explain his condition clearly, but as soon as he spoke, he realized that his words were just a breathy whisper intermingled with heavy breathing.

He was completely stunned.

Having been around the entertainment industry for so long, even though he hadn’t eaten pork, he had seen pigs run.

“Brother Pei, I think someone has drugged me,” he said, already hanging on Pei Huai’s body.

Even his voice had become much softer, and he didn’t know if Pei Huai had really heard him.

His thoughts seemed to float farther and farther away in his head, as if he himself was about to float away.

Suddenly, he felt the ground disappear from under his feet and realized that he indeed “floated” up.

Or rather, he was forcibly “floated” up by Pei Huai.

“Brother Pei…”

“Be good, I know everything already, I’ve called the doctor, they are in the hotel room now, don’t worry, Brother Pei is here,” Pei Huai said, holding onto Xia Wenyan’s arm, unconsciously exerting more strength.

But his face looked even worse than Xia Wenyan’s.

In his previous life, the news of Xia Wenyan’s death due to “drug intoxication” had always been an unsettling nightmare haunting him.

He had always thought that as long as he could properly protect Xia Wenyan, this life would not repeat the same mistakes.

But now, even though he was right beside Xia Wenyan, he still let him drink juice that had been spiked.

He was about to explode.

If it weren’t for his sole focus on treating Xia Wenyan, he would go and tear the person who drugged him to pieces right now.

No! Tearing those scumbags to pieces would be too merciful for them!

He would make them live a life worse than death!

Living in a nightmare every day!

Pei Huai clenched his teeth fiercely, and saw a man standing at the doorway not far away, dressed in pure black with patterns on his side face.

“Master…”

The man tried to extend a hand to help Pei Huai hold Xia Wenyan but was met with a cold stare.

He pressed his lips together, immediately fell silent, then decisively opened the door, making room for the two.

By this time, Xia Wenyan was completely confused.

Feeling hot all over, he unconsciously searched for a cool spot.

“Yanyan be good, don’t move around, you’ll feel better soon after the injection,” Pei Huai said as he laid Xia Wenyan on the bed, holding onto his hands that were frantically reaching around, his tone gentle enough to startle the man in black.

It seemed this person was very precious to their young master, someone they would have to treat well in the future.

Xia Wenyan’s brows furrowed for a long while, his somewhat vacant eyes looked at Pei Huai as if he understood, and then he stared straight at him, not moving anymore.

Pei Huai immediately gave a doctor standing by a look, signaling him to treat Xia Wenyan right away.

Of course, the doctor was also one of his own men, after all, he didn’t trust people with unclear backgrounds.

It wasn’t that he trusted these people much, but rather, their lives were all in his hands.

They live if he lives.

They die if he dies.

So he wasn’t afraid of betrayal.

The doctor looked at Pei Huai trepidatiously, still with the image of him ruthlessly killing abroad in his mind.

Now suddenly seeing Pei Huai being so kind to someone, he almost couldn’t react.

But he still started to treat Xia Wenyan promptly.

“Master, the drug this young master has been given can be mostly resolved with medication, but we still need to alleviate it slightly…”
