Max Level Return—I'll Protect That Fragile One

Jiang Qin offered a way out, and Jiang Heng naturally followed suit.

”Mm.” Jiang Heng said to Jiang Qin: ”Transfer Ms. Jie to the police station, report the case, and explain the crimes she committed against Bai Xi years ago.”

When Jie Siyu betrayed Bai Xi, she hadn’t yet turned eighteen, and her actions had clearly violated Xia Country’s Human Rights Protection Law.

As Jie Siyu saw Jiang Heng wanting to send her to the police station, she knew there was no way to escape a prison disaster.

Seeing her fate clearly, she resigned herself to it.

Jie Siyu asked Jiang Heng: ”What will you do with Xuan’er?” Even at this point, her mind was still concerned with Bai Xuan’s situation.

Compared to Jie Siyu’s concern for her own predicament, Bai Xuan herself seemed indifferent.

When she saw Jiang Heng burn the prescription without hesitation, she understood Jiang Heng had completely given up on her.

She was the person who knew Jiang Heng best in this world.

When Jiang Heng loved her, he was willing to pluck the stars from the sky to give her to kick around. But once Jiang Heng severed his feelings for her, he was bound to enact even more crazy revenge.

Who let her toy with his deep affection?

To someone like Jiang Heng, the insult and harm she caused him were unforgivable.

Knowing she had been sentenced to death by Jiang Heng, Bai Xuan had already given up struggling.

Jiang Heng stared at Bai Xuan’s face, naturally carrying a weak impression, a bit dazed.

Even hearing her confess her sinful side, Jiang Heng still felt Bai Xuan looked innocent, having unspoken difficulties. It had to be said, her appearance truly had great deceitfulness.

After a long silence, Jiang Heng said to Bai Xuan: ”You’re right, I indeed can’t bear to let you go.”

Upon hearing this, Bai Xuan felt a faint joy.

Jiang Heng said: ”Can’t bear to let you go, so I’ll have to keep you forever at the Jiang Family, by my side.”

This outcome was not completely unacceptable to Bai Xuan. But just as this joy began, it was shattered by Jiang Heng’s next words.

Jiang Heng turned to the butler and said: ”At the back mountain of the estate, there’s an underground bunker, send the Young Madam there, send meals at regular times daily, she shouldn’t go hungry or cold.”

Bai Xuan suddenly looked up, horrified, and questioned Jiang Heng: ”Are you actually going to lock me in the bunker?”

That bunker, Bai Xuan had been there once.

It was indeed a bunker before, but now in peaceful times, the bunker has long been abandoned, turned into a storage room. Inside, there are rats, cockroaches, and eternal solitude.

Thinking about being confined in the bunker for the rest of her life, Bai Xuan finally felt fear.

”Ah Heng!” Bai Xuan suddenly broke free from Jiang Qin’s restraint, ran over and tightly hugged Jiang Heng’s waist, leaned against his chest, sobbing quietly, her delicate voice soaked with fear, sounding hoarse: ”Ah Heng, don’t send me to the bunker, okay? You can lock me in a room, it’s fine to lock me for a lifetime, okay?”

”Bai Xuan. Did you forget? I’m very filthy.” Jiang Heng mercilessly pushed Bai Xuan away, saying: ”Don’t touch me, don’t dirty your noble hands.”

Bai Xuan stopped crying, her eyes looking at Jiang Heng coldly.

”Send the Young Madam to the bunker!” After speaking, Jiang Heng turned his head and walked briskly out of the master bedroom.

The butler once again restrained Bai Xuan, dragging her towards downstairs.

Bai Xuan listened to Jiang Heng’s footsteps growing distant, desperately shouting at him: ”Jiang Heng! You can’t do this to me! How can you lock me alone in an underground bunker! You know, the bunker is so dirty, if I’m injured and bleed, I could get infected and die!”

”Jiang Heng!”

He really intended to leave her to fend for herself!

But this time Jiang Heng was determined to break ties with Bai Xuan, even though hearing Bai Xuan’s cries still pained him like a knife cutting his heart, he didn’t stop his departing steps.

He absolutely wouldn’t allow himself to continue being Bai Xuan’s sycophant.

”Young Madam, save your strength, watch your step. If you’re hurt and bleed, you’ll get infected.” The butler seemed concerned about Bai Xuan, but his actions in dragging Bai Xuan were not gentle.

Jie Siyu watched wide-eyed as Bai Xuan was taken by the butler to the back mountain, trembling with fear.

”Ms. Jie.” Jiang Qin smiled politely at Jie Siyu, thoughtfully asking: ”Would Ms. Jie like to get in the car and go to the police station with me to surrender, or would you prefer me to escort you there and expose your scandals?”

Knowing there’s no escape, Jie Siyu said: ”I will go myself.”

Nodding slightly, Jiang Qin appreciatively remarked: ”Ms. Jie is indeed reasonable.”
