Chapter 65: Seemingly Ordinary, a Sudden Surge of Murderous Intent

Jiang Chen drove Su Jinxi back to the Su family villa and parked the car, opening the door to help her out. By now, she had recovered a portion of her strength.

Su Jinxi was overjoyed. Jiang Chen had not only bought her restorative medicines, but also a variety of delicious treats and a set of clothes that fit her perfectly.

"I still need to go back to treat someone. I'll come visit you again when I have free time," Jiang Chen said to Su Jinxi.

"Mm... *muah*~"

Su Jinxi nodded, gathering her courage to plant a kiss on Jiang Chen's cheek.

"..."

Jiang Chen was momentarily stunned.

Hadn't he already purged all the lingering drugs from Su Jinxi's system? Why was she still acting like this?

"Drive slowly and be careful on the road," Su Jinxi said, her pretty face flushing as she lowered her head, not daring to meet his eyes.

"O-okay."

Jiang Chen replied instinctively, then got back into the car, made a U-turn, and drove away.

Su Jinxi watched as Jiang Chen vanished from sight, a radiant smile still lingering on her lovely face.

"Who was that man just now?"

A cold voice cut in abruptly from behind Su Jinxi.

Startled, Su Jinxi turned around slowly to find a stern-faced, elegant woman standing there.

She offered an awkward smile and called out, "Mom, when did you come out?"

"Right when the two of you were kissing goodbye! What? Are you upset that I interrupted your romantic moment?" the elegant woman scoffed coldly. Her skin was impeccably maintained, making her look more like Su Jinxi's older sister, and they shared strikingly similar, beautiful facial features.

"No, that's not it!"

Su Jinxi hurriedly explained, "Mom, it's not what you think..."

"Jinxi, I've introduced you to so many promising young bachelors over the years—every single one of them an elite of high status and prestige. Yet you rejected every last one of them, only to end up with a completely unremarkable... wage-earning nobody?" the elegant woman interrupted, scolding her angrily.

"Mom, in my eyes, Jiang Chen is more extraordinary than anyone else!" Su Jinxi declared with a resolute gaze. She had waited for Jiang Chen for so long, and now that she had finally found him, she would never let go.

"Jiang Chen, is it? Tell him to come over tomorrow! I want to see for myself whether he's a man of talent or just a good-for-nothing loser!" the elegant woman demanded coldly, leaving no room for argument.

***

Jiang Chen had no idea that Su Jinxi had gotten into a dispute with her mother because of him, nor did he realize that her affectionate gesture was anything more than a delayed side effect of the drugs.

Meanwhile, Han Fengxu's chauffeur and bodyguard had been ushered into the Chu family villa's grand hall by Chu Yan to wait. One must respect the dog for the owner's sake; the trusted confidant of the Han family head naturally deserved courteous treatment.

"Miss Chu, when is your husband coming back? Our young master is waiting for treatment, and the family head has already called to urge us—we cannot afford a single moment of delay!" the chauffeur-bodyguard asked impatiently. He couldn't bring himself to explicitly state that their young master's manhood had been destroyed; if that leaked, the reputation damage would be catastrophic. How would the young master ever find a woman again?

Just as Chu Yan was about to reply, the sound of a car parking echoed from outside the courtyard. Jiang Chen had returned.

As Jiang Chen walked into the hall holding his car keys, the chauffeur-bodyguard, Chu Yan, and Yao Bing all stepped forward.

"You're Miss Chu's husband? Come with me to the hospital and treat our young master right now!" the chauffeur-bodyguard demanded aggressively, confirming Jiang Chen's identity.

"Chu Yan, what's going on here?" Jiang Chen ignored the chauffeur-bodyguard and asked Chu Yan instead.

"He's a bodyguard for the head of the Han family. He's here to take you to the municipal hospital to treat Young Master Han!" Chu Yan explained immediately. The man's attitude was undeniably atrocious, so Jiang Chen's displeasure was completely justified.

"Young Master Han?"

Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow, glancing sidelong at the chauffeur-bodyguard. "Han Qiyue?"

"That's right! It seems you know our young master, which makes things much easier! Come with me right now!" The chauffeur-bodyguard lifted his chin, his expression oozing a sense of superiority as he urged Jiang Chen toward the hospital.

"Get lost and go tell Han Qiyue: I'd rather treat a pig or a dog than waste my time on a beast like him!" Jiang Chen stated coldly.

"Audacious! How dare you insult our young master? Have you grown tired of living?" the chauffeur-bodyguard bellowed. Daring to curse the young master as a beast worse than a pig and a dog—this man was courting death!

Shock flickered across the faces of Chu Yan and Yao Bing as well. They couldn't fathom why Jiang Chen had suddenly broken out into such harsh insults against Han Qiyue.

"Jiang Chen, have you lost your mind? Isn't offending people from the major aristocratic families enough? Do you have to provoke the Han family as well? Just because you know a bit of medical skill, do you think you can look down on everyone?" Yao Bing berated Jiang Chen angrily. "You can't even clean up the mess you started yourself, and now you're dragging the entire Chu family down with you! Instead of seizing the opportunity to make amends, are you trying to cause an even bigger catastrophe?"

Unlike Yao Bing, Chu Yan wasn't as impulsive. She figured there might be some personal grudge between Jiang Chen and Han Qiyue, but Jiang Chen's actions were far too reckless. Even finding a polite excuse to refuse would have been better than making an enemy outright!

Stepping forward, she tried to mediate. "There must be some misunderstanding here..."

"There is no misunderstanding!"

Jiang Chen cut Chu Yan off, asking with a solemn expression, "Chu Yan, if a friend of yours had been drugged by Han Qiyue, nearly violated, and left in mortal danger, would you go and treat a beast like that?"

Upon hearing this, the color drained from Chu Yan's pretty face. Never in her wildest dreams had she expected the young master of the Han family to be such a hypocritical, wolf-hearted beast. No wonder Jiang Chen refused to treat Han Qiyue; if she were in his shoes, she wouldn't bother with polite refusals either—she would simply tell the chauffeur-bodyguard to get lost!

After all, she had experienced that kind of terror firsthand. Gao Zhihui had abducted her and had her drugged to exact revenge on the Chu family, nearly destroying her and driving her to suicidal despair.

Yao Bing, who had also suffered deeply from being drugged by Gao Zhihui, instantly changed her tune. She realized Jiang Chen had been right all along, and that she had wronged him. A beast like Han Qiyue deserved to die; why bother treating him? Saving scum like that would only endanger society!

"Hmph! Not to mention that it's impossible for our young master to have drugged your friend, even if he did, it would be your friend's supreme honor!" the chauffeur-bodyguard sneered with supreme arrogance. His young master merely wanted to play with a woman—what was the big deal?

"*Slap*... *Ptui*..."

With a ferocious swing of his hand, Jiang Chen struck the chauffeur-bodyguard across the face. The burly, towering figure was sent flying through the air, spitting out a mouthful of blood and shattered teeth.

"Since you crave this 'honor' so much, why don't you send your wife, mother, sisters, and daughters to Han Qiyue to be violated?" Jiang Chen asked coldly, glaring down at the chauffeur-bodyguard sprawled on the ground.

"Screw your mother! *Ptui*... You bastard, you dared to launch a sneak attack on me! I'm going to beat you until you can't even find your teeth!"

Enraged, the chauffeur-bodyguard scrambled up from the ground, spat out a mouthful of bloody saliva, and lunged forward, throwing a vicious punch straight at Jiang Chen's face.

As the chauffeur and bodyguard to the head of the Han family, he possessed the strength of a martial arts master. Being knocked flying by a medical punk was the ultimate humiliation!

"*Bang*... *Crack*!"

Jiang Chen lashed out with a kick, striking the bodyguard squarely in the chest. Before the man's fist could even reach Jiang Chen, his ribs snapped under the impact, and he was sent hurtling out of the hall and onto the courtyard grounds.

Grimacing in agony as fresh blood sprayed from his lips, the chauffeur-bodyguard finally realized that Jiang Chen hadn't used a sneak attack at all—the man was simply a martial arts master far more powerful than he was!

"*Puff*... I get it now. You're the one who destroyed the young master's manhood!" the chauffeur-bodyguard gasped as he lay coughing up blood outside the hall, sudden realization dawning on him. The young master had been crippled after trying to drug the man's friend, and the family head had actually sent him to ask this very person for treatment—it was the height of self-humiliation!

Hearing this, Chu Yan and Yao Bing were struck dumb with shock. Jiang Chen had actually destroyed the Han family young master's manhood?!

As Jiang Chen stepped out of the hall, intending to deal with the chauffeur-bodyguard once and for all, he suddenly sensed a sharp intent to kill and whipped his head up to glare in that direction!
