Chapter 993: You’re Hurting Me

“Lu Xian, I was wrong. I was really angry just now. You don’t know how far overboard our son has gone this time. He stole my project and exposed the Quan family’s scandals, causing the Quan Corporation’s stock price to plummet. Today, the shareholders of the corporation were all very angry. I was the one who thought of all sorts of ways to stop them from working together to deal with Quan Jue.” Quan Jingzhou’s expression was sincere, and his words were soothing to the ears.

Quan Jingzhou’s earlier words were right.

Losing the project with Mr. Oster was already a huge blow to the Quan Corporation. Now, with so many scandals made public, the board of directors was very angry with Quan Jue and Quan Jingzhou.

Of course, Quan Jingzhou couldn’t admit that he had taken Lu Xian away, which was what led to Quan Jue’s vengeful actions. He had urgently held a board meeting this afternoon and pushed all the blame to Quan Jue.

Now, Quan Jingzhou wasn’t the only one who wanted to deal with Quan Jue. The board of directors wouldn’t stand by and do nothing.

Quan Jingzhou didn’t believe that they, who had been in the business world for so many years, couldn’t defeat Quan Jue!

He wanted him to know the consequences of offending him and the entire Quan family!

He had been too arrogant and underestimated his son. This time, he would do everything he could to take away everything from Quan Jue and make him fall to the bottom. He would let Quan Jue understand that he, Quan Jingzhou, was the true master of everything!

Lu Xian didn’t know Quan Jingzhou’s true intentions, much less the vicious thoughts in his heart.

She wasn’t even willing to talk to him. Her gaze was fixed on a spot, and no one knew what she was thinking.

Lu Xian’s coldness pierced Quan Jingzhou deeply.

He reached out and grabbed Lu Xian, forcing her to look at him. “Lu Xian, can you not treat me like this? I was wrong. I love you. You can hit and scold me, but don’t ignore me. You’re making me feel even worse than death!”

“Let me go back. I want to see my son.” Lu Xian had nothing else to say to him.

Her heart had already turned cold when Quan Jingzhou criticized Quan Jue.

What did her son do wrong? If Quan Jingzhou hadn’t imprisoned her here, Quan Jue wouldn’t have done this.

She knew that Quan Jue was definitely not what Quan Jingzhou claimed.

“You don’t want to be with me anymore? Lu Xian, you don’t like me anymore?” Quan Jingzhou grabbed her wrist uneasily. He used so much strength that his knuckles turned white. Her wrist hurt.

“It hurts…! Let go of me, you’re hurting me.” Lu Xian felt like her bones were about to be crushed by him.

Only then did Quan Jingzhou realize what was happening.

Panic appeared in his eyes as he quickly let go of her.

Lu Xian moved her wrist and realized that Quan Jingzhou had left an extremely bright red mark on it.

Lu Xian pursed her lips and remained silent, but her gaze turned even colder.

Quan Jingzhou could clearly feel that something was wrong. He panicked and hurriedly grabbed her to defend himself. “Lu Xian, I’m sorry. I just care too much about you…”

“Quan Jingzhou, I have to leave today no matter what.” Lu Xian’s face was cold. Ignoring the wound on her leg, she got off the bed.

Seeing that she was serious, Quan Jingzhou’s eyes were filled with reluctance.

He really loved her.

He had to keep her even if he had to resort to unscrupulous means.
