Chapter 133: Let’s See How You Quibble Now
Hearing him mention Jiang Ruanxi, thinking of how she had become like this, all caused by Jiang Ruanxi, she was so angry that she spoke without thinking, “She wants a divorce, that’s wishful thinking. After doing such things, our Lin Family hasn’t divorced her yet, which is already”
“Ah…”
Before Lin Ningkun could finish speaking, he was directly kicked to the ground, Jiang Rui directly stepping on his face, as if venting, his foot even twisting viciously a few times.
“Your Lin Family dares to talk about divorcing your wife?”
Overwhelming strength pressed down on Lin Ningkun’s body, and only then did he understand how “gentle” Jiang Ruanxi’s knife to her had been.
“Third Master, I was wrong, please spare me, we can talk this out.”
Jiang Rui gave him a cold glance, “Born with a spineless nature, no wonder you could be beaten so badly by a woman.”
Even if Lin Ningkun was furious inside, he didn’t dare make a sound.
Lin family members were all lunatics, he didn’t dare provoke them.
“If the Lin Family dares mention divorcing your wife again, next time it won’t be just this bit of rough handling, understand?”
Finally, Jiang Rui lifted his foot in disgust.
“Fine. I can choose not to divorce her, but Jiang Ruanxi doesn’t want to live with me either. Now she’s plotting to divorce me, and besides, she poisoned my mother, I can’t keep this poisonous woman in our Lin Family.”
“Our Jiang Family won’t agree to your divorce, so no matter how much Jiang Ruanxi struggles, it won’t work.” Jiang Rui glanced at him obliquely, “As for what you said about her poisoning your mother, that’s outside the Jiang Family’s jurisdiction. Just remember, we only want Jiang Ruanxi alive and not leaving the Lin Family, as for what methods you use, that’s the Lin Family’s business, we won’t interfere.”
Lin Ningkun was still dazed when Jiang Rui tossed a few banknotes at him, “Once the matter is handled, silver money is no issue, and as for restarting your official career, that’s not hard either.”
Lin Ningkun was naturally tempted, “Third Master, rest assured, I will definitely bring Jiang Ruanxi back and live well together.”
Jiang Rui was very satisfied, gave him a few disgusted looks, and then left.
And Run Ru, who had been eavesdropping on all this outside, turned pale, scared out of her wits.
Jiang Ruanxi was the Jiang Family’s own daughter, why were the Jiang family members so ruthless to her?
Thinking of everything Jiang Ruanxi had done for her, she turned and hurried off to tell this information to Jiang Ruanxi.

Lin Tingting looked at the evidence in her hand with a full face of smiles, laughing loudly inside the room.
“Jiang Ruanxi, this time with ironclad proof, I see how you can quibble.”
After speaking, she wanted to rush in front of her and viciously slap her face in revenge.
But after only two steps, she was stopped by the maidservant beside her, “Concubine Lin, don’t get agitated first. If you just go like this, even if the evidence is solid, but with Jiang family members here, what can you do to her? Do you really think the Jiang family members won’t protect her and will bring her to justice? They’re family after all.”
Lin Tingting thought it made sense, “Then what do we do, just let her go like this?”
Thinking of such a good opportunity slipping away, Lin Tingting was unwilling, “No, even with Jiang family members protecting her, we can’t let her off so easily, I want blood debt paid in blood.”
“Auntie, what do you plan to do?”
Lin Tingting’s eyes flashed with ruthlessness, “She wants to poison my mother to death and kill my Second Brother, then tonight I’ll let her taste the flavor of going to hell.”
Seeing her terrifying gaze, the maidservant couldn’t help but feel afraid inside.

The moon rose high, pitch black where one couldn’t see fingers, Lin Tingting holding a fire starter, headed straight for Jiang Ruanxi’s guest room.
But what she didn’t know was, right after she left, Sun Chengye came to her room and found no one there.
“Where did Auntie go?” Sun Chengye frowned and asked the trembling maidservant beside him.
Sun Chengye was unusually irritable tonight, the daytime events kept lingering in his mind, making him unable to sleep at all.
He had no one to talk to about it, so he came to find Lin Tingting, only to discover she was gone.
A sense of unease from her disappearance immediately crept into his heart, making him start to feel urgent.
“This idiot, she wouldn’t have gone to find Jiang Ruanxi, would she?”
The maidservant saw she couldn’t hide it anymore and knelt down, “Heir Apparent, calm down, Auntie said she just wanted to teach the other a lesson, I think she’ll be back soon.”
“Idiot, simply foolish beyond reason.”
Sun Chengye’s face was ashen, no longer caring about anything, he turned and headed for Jiang Ruanxi’s side room, “If she wants to court death, fine, but why drag our Sun Family into it?”
Not even considering what kind of people were in the temple now.
Jiang Ruanxi abused Madam Zhou, even wanted to kill Lin Ningkun, yet under the Jiang Family’s protection, wasn’t everything fine?
She actually overreached herself and dared to provoke Jiang Ruanxi, was she really tired of living?
He also regretted agreeing to Lin Tingting coming to Guangming Temple, if he’d known it would be like this, no matter how much she used seduction, he wouldn’t have let her come.
Lin Tingting proceeded without obstruction and soon arrived outside Jiang Ruanxi’s side room door.
Her side room was in the most remote corner of the temple, and the building wasn’t connected to the surroundings.
So on the way there, she hadn’t encountered any obstacles.
Hong Ye heard the movement outside and made a hand gesture to Jiang Ruanxi.
Jiang Ruanxi nodded, and Hong Ye took out a bucket of oil and directly splashed it inside the room.
The lantern on the corridor swayed in the wind, cold and aloof moonlight mixed with dim lamplight falling on Lin Tingting’s face, her delicate features instantly becoming hideous, like a ghost messenger from hell.
Jiang Ruanxi, this time you’re dead for sure.
Lin Tingting poured the oil from the lantern onto the door and took out the fire starter.
“Roar.”
She only felt a blinding brightness in front of her, closing her eyes for a few seconds, the hot temperature of fire around her, opening her eyes to find fire everywhere, scaring her into stuttering, “This, what’s going on?”
The lantern in her hand also dropped to the ground.
She had clearly only splashed oil and hadn’t lit it yet, why did it ignite on its own?
Soon she figured out what happened.
It was all Jiang Ruanxi’s scheme.
She wanted to push everything onto her.
Unexpectedly, she was so vicious, to frame her, she didn’t even care about her own life, wanting to burn herself alive?
“Concubine Lin, you bitch, what are you doing?”
Lin Tingting was startled, the fire starter in her hand dropped, and Sun Chengye saw it and his eyes turned red.
“Heir Apparent, it’s not me.” Lin Tingting explained in panic, “I didn’t light the fire.”
But no one would believe her explanation now, Sun Chengye unhesitatingly slapped her, “Bitch, if you want to die, why implicate our Sun Family?”
