No wonder all these years, everyone says that the Xiao family is inferior to the Shen family..."Xiao Heng's words were cut short. The old man grabbed the cane beside him and swung it hard at Xiao Heng...If one day, there was someone in this world who could influence my emotions, I would personally end her.

That was Shen Xiujin's realization from his boyhood.

As the heir to the Shen family and the future helm of the family, Shen Xiujin received the strictest and most ruthless education from a young age. His grandfather personally molded his own grandson into an emotionless and cold-blooded machine.

Grandfather said, "You cannot have weaknesses. If one day, someone appears who can easily influence your decisions and emotions, then that person is the most terrifying enemy. Ah-xiu, for enemies, you must kill them with your own hands."

When Shen Xiujin and Bai Yuxiang spoke these words, the young Bai Yuxiang was shocked. He thought Shen Xiujin was just saying it casually. Who hadn't said a few "cool" things when they were young When they grew up, they would look back and think that their youth had passed too quickly

Perhaps Bai Yuxing had long forgotten that Shen Xiujin had said such words, perhaps Bai Yuxing simply took those words as a joke, listening to them and then dismissing them from his mind.

But... Bai YuXing never expected that other people's youthful years would be completely different from Shen XiuJin's.

By the edge of the large bed, a man's fingers clamped down on the woman lying in the bed's throat... They were only clasped, without force.

He was puzzled, why did this damn woman always manage to stir his emotions so easily

Why does she always manage to irritate him so easily

Why did her pained and curled-up form make him feel an uncontrollable urge to go see what was wrong

He sat on the sofa, and he didn't feel the urgent need to rush over just because of her pained whimpers.

He had been trying very hard to control himself, telling himself "Don't go closer and look."

He really has exhausted all his self-control...it's all her fault! It's all her constant whining and complaining that's driving him mad!

His fingers were long and slender, with prominent knuckles—a beautiful pair of hands that clasped around her neck... He gritted his teeth, applying pressure with each fingertip... It didn't matter, just a little more force and he could dispose of this woman who so easily affected his emotions.

Then he wouldn't be affected by her anymore, and he wouldn't drive her to the hospital in the middle of the night out of the ordinary.

Xia Wei Ming had never enjoyed such treatment.

"Ugh... hiss... wheeze... wheeze..." She curled herself up in pain, her brow furrowing with each agonizing spasm.

Beads of sweat, illuminated by the bedside lamplight, were clearly visible on Shen Xiujin's face.

His fingers were clasped around her throat, suddenly! Releasing! … Can’t do it! I can’t go through with it!

As soon as he loosened his grip, Shen Xiujin lost all his strength. He propped himself up on the edge of the bed with his hands, supporting most of his body weight, and gasped for breath a few times before finally calming down.

As soon as he looked up, he saw the woman twisting her body in pain.

First, it was just whimpers of pain, then curling up into a ball, but it still seemed to be in agony, only able to writhe. Finally, the pain was so intense that it rolled around on the bed.

Suddenly, I pulled on a needle on the back of my hand, and blood flowed quickly back through the saline tube!

Shen Xiujin grabbed her hand, she couldn't move her arm because of the IV drip, but other parts of her body were restless, tossing and turning. Shen Xiujin was helpless, he could only do it all at once, using his other big palm to control her other hand, he pressed most of his body weight down on her before managing to subdue her.

"Mmm... Let go..."

Shen Xiujin listened to her incessant babbling, clearly in unbearable pain. Suddenly, he realized that from beginning to end, her pained whimpers had only produced meaningless sounds of suffering, but she hadn't uttered a single "ouch."

He was clearly in pain, yet he didn't cry out... Without warning, a sharp pain pierced his chest.

“Wake up! Wake up!” He raised a hand and roughly patted her cheek: “Hey! Wake up! How long are you going to sleep”

Jian Tong opened her eyes, but didn't react for a moment. However, the pain in her body was the first to reach her nerves. That pain...she gritted her teeth!

Her pale lips bore the mark of a tooth.

Shen Xiujin narrowed his eyes in displeasure, "What's wrong with you"

Oh...

"How did I get here"

"What do you think" Shen Xiujin glared at Jian Tong: "Didn't I tell you earlier, don't go to work if you're not well Fainting at work and giving me trouble."

"No... uh... hiss~ growl..." Another wave of pain struck, Jian Tong was speaking and apologizing, suddenly widening his eyes in agonizing pain!

"Ugh!" The pain was enough to kill a person. Despite the agony, Jian Tong still had her wits about her, aware that Shen Xiu Jin was right in front of her.

I absolutely don't want him to see this!

I absolutely don't want Shen Xiujin to see this joke!

Even if she… had already made countless jokes in front of him!

Even if she... had already performed herself into a joke in front of him!

But Heaven seemed to be against her. There were flashes of lightning and thunder, and the pain in her waist intensified. Her legs felt like they were throbbing from within her bones!

Before, when the weather changed, it would be unbearably painful, but after three years, she had gotten used to it. Used to the pain afterward, she didn't find it as agonizing as it once was.

After getting used to the pain, one could even grit their teeth and bear it when it pierced to the bone.

And today, this pain made her relive the initial agony she felt after losing her left kidney.

Why... It's been so long since I've felt this pain, why today.

Her mind was a jumbled mess, filled with thoughts that were chaotic and numerous. Her mind raced... perhaps it was today's near-drowning, the days of fever, the multiple bouts of fainting.

She seemed... to have not felt this kind of pain in a long time, nor had she cherished her body so much. It seemed like, ever since she lost her left kidney...

Unconsciously, her teeth sank deep into her lip flesh. She bit her lips tightly, and unconsciously, blood seeped from the corners of her lips.

Shen Xiujin suppressed her hands and feet, but he couldn't control her teeth biting his lip. Looking at the blood overflowing from her lips, Shen Xiujin remained silent. He stretched out a hand, pried open her mouth, and quickly shoved his arm into her mouth.

"If it hurts badly," the man said in a low, flat voice, "bite."

Jian Tong widened her eyes, staring silently at Shen Xiuqin's expressionless handsome face. Suddenly! She opened her mouth and bit him fiercely!

The man's brow furrowed slightly, but he remained silent, allowing her to bite his arm.

Jian Tong didn't know why she would actually bite him. Maybe in the moment she decided to open her mouth, she was angry. The pain she felt, it was his doing. How much pain did she feel She couldn't put it into words, couldn't describe it with any adjective. All she could do was open her mouth and bite... Shen Xiujin, let's experience this together. Let me show you just how much pain I'm in right now!

She bit into his arm, a coppery metallic tang filling her mouth... She knew it was his blood, and suddenly, two lines of tears spilled from her eyes.all hand that was slapping his palm with unparalleled firmness. With a clever move, he reached out and pulled, bringing both hand and person into his arms together. With a smooth motion, he hugged he...
