"I drink."

She knew that with Zheng Yan and Zheng Hong around, there was no chance for her and Li Jingchen to be together. No matter what happened in the future, she would just be well.

Just when Jiang Tong was about to drink it...

Suddenly there was a car horn outside the door.

Then came the sound of several people talking.

"That's it, brother."

"My sister-in-law should be here!"

Through the glass window, a familiar tall figure strode towards me.

It’s Li Jingchen!

Bang.

The door opened.

Like a ray of light shining into the haze, Li Jingchen's sudden appearance stunned everyone present.

Jiang Tong put the cup down and stared at his figure.

Behind the man were Tao Guanglei and Luo Yubai.

The scene inside the house, the smoky environment, and Jiang Tong, who was isolated and trapped in the middle.

Li Jingchen's eyes flashed and he strode towards Jiang Tong.

"Are you okay?!" He checked on her anxiously, his slender fingers trembling.

“……” Jiang Tong shook her head.

"Aren't you in Hong Kong?!"

Li Jingchen did not answer this question. Seeing that she was safe and sound, he looked at Zheng Yan.

That look seemed to penetrate the cracks of time, and Zheng Yan's thoughts immediately went back to thirty years ago when she poisoned Tao Yizheng and Li Yuanzheng snatched the cup away.

She watched her husband drink the poison she had prepared long ago, and he fell into her arms.

"What do you want?"

Li Jingchen has already spoken, his voice is stern.

He held Jiang Tong's wrist and protected her tightly behind him.

"How on earth are you planning to murder her while I'm away?"

Zheng Hong hurriedly explained, "I...we didn't do that. It was just that your mother found a witch to perform a ritual for Jiang Tong."

"Oh?"

Li Jingchen looked at the witch and asked, "What happened to my girlfriend? Do you want to perform a ritual for her?"

The witch was shocked by the awe-inspiring righteousness of Li Jingchen, who had a pair of deep and determined eyes.

The witch started to tremble and quickly pointed at Zheng Hong, "She was the one who found me! She wanted me to cast a spell..."

Zheng Hong hurriedly said, "It's just talisman water. We didn't poison it."

Li Jingchen picked up the glass of water on the table and handed it to Zheng Hong impatiently, "In that case, drink this glass of water."

Zheng Hong shook her head vigorously, then looked at Zheng Yan.

"Sister, please say something!"

Why should Zheng Hong bear the blame alone?

Zheng Yan was silent, not knowing what bad memories she was thinking about, her lips were trembling.

"You don't want to drink? Fine, I'll drink it."

Li Jingchen picked up the cup and said, "I'm thirsty."

"No!"

Zheng Yan finally reacted!

This time she did not let herself make the same mistake as before. She quickly snatched the cup from Li Jingchen.

Zheng Yan held Li Jingchen's hand with trembling hands, then slowly put the cup down.

"You can't drink it! It's poisonous...!"

Except for Li Jingchen, everyone else was stunned.

Including Jiang Tong, and Tao Guanglei and Luo Yubai behind her!

poison? !

How can this be……

Zheng Hong gritted her teeth, unwilling and a little annoyed. She lowered her head and clenched her teeth.

Jiang Tong took two steps back. At this moment, she understood that this was not a simple talisman water.

Zheng Yan and Zheng Hong actually wanted to kill her.

Her face was pale, her breathing was difficult, and she suddenly felt like retching. She covered her mouth and ran out. She ran outside...

Li Jingchen clenched his fists tightly. He stared at Zheng Yan deeply and helplessly, his heart falling into an icy cave.

He originally thought that he would come back to deal with family matters after the company's IPO was completed.

But he didn't expect that his inaction would give Zheng Yan and Zheng Hong an opportunity to take advantage of him.

Especially Zheng Yan.

Before he left, she had clearly promised him countless times that she would not cause him any more trouble.

This woman, his biological mother.

again and again……

He hurt the person he loved behind her back and even wanted to kill her.

Li Jingchen knew that he could no longer show mercy as he had before.

"None of you can leave today!"

After saying that, he went out to check on Jiang Tong's condition.

Tao Guanglei walked up to Zheng Yan, looking down at her in disbelief.

"You used the same trick on my mother before, and you're trying to do it again now!"

Zheng Hong asked, "Sister, what does he mean? Didn't you say that Tao Yi really took the initiative to buy the medicine and take poison to commit suicide? Could it be..."

"say no more!"

Zheng Yan screamed, her balance was unstable, she fell to the ground and started crying.

"Stop talking."

She was shaking all over, what on earth was she doing.

She once killed her husband, causing her to suffer nightmares, and now, she almost killed her son!

-

outside the house.

Li Jingchen saw Jiang Tong retching and looking pale, and thought she was frightened.

"Sorry……"

Being held by the man, Jiang Tong was shaking all over. She couldn't say a word at this moment and tears filled her eyes.

She never imagined that Zheng Yan and Zheng Hong wanted her dead.

No wonder Zheng Hong insisted that she drink that glass of water.

No wonder Zheng Yan's expression was so strange today.

Li Jingchen hugged Jiang Tong tightly, his voice trembling a little, "I'm really sorry, this time, I will definitely not be as soft-hearted as before."

"no need."

Jiang Tong came back to her senses, her eyes were empty. What heinous crime had she committed that the two of them wanted her to die?

"Maybe what that witch said is right. I am the star of disaster. I shouldn't live in this world. I am the one who harmed you."

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Li Jingchen held her arms tightly and made her face him.

Jiang Tong stared at the man in front of her with tearful eyes, "It's my fault that I got you into trouble. I saw the news that Dixin Technology failed to go public... It's my fault..."

"It's just a temporary problem. It's not your fault."

Li Jingchen felt heartbroken, especially when he saw Jiang Tong in pain.

"It's my fault, I owe you..."

"Listen," Li Jingchen stared at her, "I don't care what they said to provoke you, but I'm telling you now, Jiang Tong, you don't owe me anything!"

Jiang Tong gritted her teeth, "But..."

"No buts. If you die today, I will owe you my whole life, and I will die with you. Mingyang and Feifan will become orphans. Is this what you want to see?"

Jiang Tong shook her head again and again.

"Do not."

She didn't want to, she didn't want to at all.

Li Jingchen hugged her again, wishing he could hold her in his heart, and his broad hands pressed on the back of her head.

"So stop having those thoughts. I can't afford to lose you."

"Brother, something bad has happened!!"

Tao Guanglei suddenly rushed out of the house.

Zheng Yan just drank poison and vomited blood!
