Every possibility left him unable to refute.
He smiled bitterly. Liking such a smart and rational woman had its downsides.
But how could he not like her as she was?
If she weren't like this, he might not have fallen for her at all.
He didn't care for women like Ming Silian's delicate flowers.
"Having said everything, with no secrets, I feel much lighter," Ming Yutong said with a smile. "Otherwise, I'd always feel like I'm deceiving you."
She grabbed her bag. "Well, I'm leaving now. Drive carefully."
At this point, Jiang Lulian was so flustered that he forgot to see Ming Yutong off.
Ming Yutong, on the other hand, didn't think anything of it, nor did she expect to be seen off.
She had always returned home alone, so it felt perfectly normal to her.
After saying goodbye to Jiang Lulian, Ming Yutong went home.
Jiang Lulian then drove off.
As soon as Jiang Lulian's car exited the community gate, Fu Yinxiu followed immediately.
While waiting by the roadside, Fu Yinxiu kept a close eye on the time.
The long wait felt agonizing, and time seemed to drag painfully slow.
He was never one to overthink.
His confidence made him strong, and he was used to being in control.
But now, his mind was in chaos, filled with all sorts of thoughts.
What could Jiang Lulian have been doing for so long?
Had he been with Ming Yutong the entire time?
Had they gone home together?
Did they... embrace, or even kiss?
What could they have done in that amount of time?
Finally, when Jiang Lulian came out, Fu Yinxiu checked the time and felt a bit relieved.
At least the time wasn't long enough for anything significant to happen.
Yet he still felt jealous. Overwhelmed by his jealousy, he decided to follow Jiang Lulian's car.
Jiang Lulian drove for a while and noticed something amiss.
Through the rearview mirror, he recognized Fu Yinxiu's car and slowed down, pulling over to the side.
To his shock, Fu Yinxiu didn't slow down at all and crashed straight into Jiang Lulian's car.
Bang!
Fu Yinxiu's car slammed into the rear of Jiang Lulian's vehicle.
Even with his luxurious European car, the front was crumpled deeply.
Jiang Lulian's car rear was severely damaged, resembling a major accident.
The unexpected violent collision caused Jiang Lulian to be thrown forward heavily.
His forehead hit the steering wheel with no cushioning.
Feeling dizzy, Jiang Lulian's vision went dark, with only flashes of light appearing. He tried to move but found himself powerless.
Blood-soaked moisture slid down his forehead, making him frown.
Fu Yinxiu, with a dark expression, got out of the car, followed by his bodyguards, Alpha Guard 1 and Alpha Guard 2.
They had witnessed Fu Yinxiu's frenzied crash into Jiang Lulian's car.
"Master," Alpha Guard 1 and Alpha Guard 2 called out.
"Drag him out and send him to the hospital. Make sure he won't be able to find Yutong for a while," Fu Yinxiu ordered.
"Yes, sir," Jia Yi and Jia Er replied and proceeded.
Fu Yinxiu didn't care about Jiang Lulian's condition any further and drove away.

The next morning, Ming Yutong had just arrived at the office when Ming Yuqian came over.
"Sis, did you know?Jiang Lulian had an accident." Ming Yuqian said as soon as she entered.
"When did this happen?" Ming Yutong put down her work, surprised.
"Last night, on the road not far from our place." Ming Yuqian glanced at her hesitantly.
"Just say it directly. Don't be so vague with me," Ming Yutong raised an eyebrow.
"It was Fu Yinxiu who hit him." Ming Yuqian reluctantly mentioned Fu Yinxiu, clearly uncomfortable talking about him.
Ming Yuqian could see the significant change in Jiang Lulian.
Even from a man's perspective, he could tell that Jiang Lulian was sincere and more devoted to Ming Yutong, having cleared up all his ambiguous relationships with other women.
If Jiang Lulian really changed for Ming Yutong, Ming Yuqian would somewhat approve of them being together.
It's not that he admired Jiang Lulian greatly, but he still felt that Jiang Lulian wasn't quite good enough for his sister.
However, having Jiang Lulian around was better than Fu Yinxiu.
Ming Yutong's expression darkened immediately. She knew very well why Fu Yinxiu had hit Jiang Lulian.
Because she knew, she felt both angry and guilty.
Angry at Fu Yinxiu for being so extreme.
Guilty for involving Jiang Lulian.
"Keep an eye on things at the company for me," Ming Yutong said as she left with her bag.
"Sis, where are you going?To see Jiang Lulian?" Ming Yuqian asked as she followed.
But Ming Yutong was already striding away.
***
Ming Yutong drove, her anger fueling her speed.
She went straight to the entrance of "Xiuqi."
Fuming, she got out of the car and stormed into the building.
Her face was stern, but as she walked past the reception desk, someone stopped her.
"Excuse me, ma'am, who are you here to see?"
Ming Yutong suppressed her anger and replied calmly, "I'm looking for Fu Yinxiu."
"Uh..." The staff member hesitated, asking, "Do you have an appointment?"
