Max Level Return—I'll Protect That Fragile One

Bai Xuan was disgusted by the things Jie Siyu had done.

Her eyes darted around, and she suddenly thought of a good idea. She grabbed Jiang Heng’s arm and looked up at him, saying, ”Ah Heng, my mom knew a long time ago that Bai Xi was the one who saved you back then. She betrayed Bai Xuan first, then deceived us.”

”If people find out about those dirty deeds of hers, it won’t do us any good. Ah Heng, lock her up in a mental asylum, let her be confined with a bunch of lunatics. Even if she accidentally spills the beans one day, no one will believe her.”

Bai Xuan believed Jie Siyu had betrayed Bai Xi. Knowing the truth but not telling it as it is, she’s the culprit. And a ruthless man like Jiang Heng would certainly not tolerate her once he discovered Jie Siyu’s deceit and schemes.

Therefore, Bai Xuan wanted to use Jiang Heng to completely cut off Jie Siyu’s escape route.

She dared not let Jie Siyu continue to roam freely outside, fearing that Jie Siyu might use those dirty deeds to threaten her. If Jie Siyu’s scandals were exposed, her position as the Jiang family’s Young Madam would be hard to maintain.

Bai Xuan absolutely would not allow anyone to shake her position as the Jiang family’s Young Madam.

Bai Xuan was solely focused on eliminating the trouble that was Jie Siyu and didn’t notice the disappointed and disgusted look Jiang Heng gave her after hearing what she said.

”Bai Xuan, Jie Siyu is your mother.” Jiang Heng reminded her in an unpredictable tone.

Bai Xuan thought Jiang Heng was concerned about her status and unwilling to make things difficult for Jie Siyu, so she said decisively, ”She even sold out her own daughter, how can she be considered a qualified mother? Keeping her is a disaster; it’s better to cut off her escape route early, to eliminate future problems. If her scandals were leaked, it would also tarnish the Jiang family’s reputation.”

Clearly, Bai Xuan really couldn’t tolerate Jie Siyu anymore; she was determined to bring down Jie Siyu.

At this moment, Jiang Heng felt an indescribable sense of exhaustion and self-mockery in his heart.

Is this the true nature of the woman he loved deeply?

Just to secure her position as the Jiang family’s Young Madam, could she really send her own birth mother to a mental asylum without batting an eye!

What Jie Siyu did to Bai Xi was indeed vicious, but even death wouldn’t be too much. But Jie Siyu hadn’t done anything wrong to Bai Xuan!

As far as he knew, after leaving Haiyu City, Jie Siyu always took Bai Xuan with her no matter where she went. Even during the toughest times, she never let Bai Xuan want for food and clothing.

How cold-hearted must Bai Xuan be to so calmly scheme against her own birth mother?

Jiang Heng strode out of the bathroom, turned to the guard standing behind him, and said, ”The Young Madam’s condition has relapsed, she needs bed rest, take her back to her room.”

At this, the guard silently complied.

Bai Xuan was propped up by the guard, half dragged and half pulled to the stairwell. It was only then that she realized the meaning of Jiang Heng’s words.

He was actually going to imprison her!

Bai Xuan looked at Jiang Heng in disbelief and shouted at him, ”Jiang Heng, what right do you have to imprison me!”

What right?

Perhaps it was because he suddenly saw through Bai Xuan’s true nature. He couldn’t bring himself to divorce her and let her go, but he also couldn’t continue to love her like before, without any reservations.

Imprisoning her at home, not seeing her, but not losing her, was the best solution Jiang Heng could think of at the moment.

”Jiang Heng, you can’t treat me like this!” Bai Xuan’s voice came down from the second-floor hallway, becoming more and more faint: ”Jiang Heng, if you think imprisoning me will make Bai Xi understand you, forgive you, and be with you, you’re dreaming!”

”Dream on, Jiang Heng, you’ll never fly together with her in this lifetime!”

Bai Xuan believed that the reason Jiang Heng wanted to imprison her was to show Bai Xi, to win Bai Xi’s favor. ”Jiang Heng, you’re just a heartless man!”

The door closed by the guard, and Bai Xuan’s voice suddenly disappeared.

Heartless man.

Jiang Heng pondered the words ’heartless man’ at the tip of his tongue and suddenly let out a self-mocking laugh. The wound from slashing his wrist for her had just healed, and now he was labeled a heartless man in her eyes?

Jiang Heng pulled out the prescription from his pocket.

On it, the handwriting from Medicine Farmer Star was bold and unrestrained, exceptionally dashing.

Staring at the names of the medicinal ingredients on the prescription, Jiang Heng couldn’t shake the feeling that each word was like a mocking smile, laughing at his self-righteousness and stupidity.

The butler suddenly approached Jiang Heng and whispered, ”Sir just called, wanting to know about our situation here.”

It must be that the scene of Bai Xuan crying on the coastal highway had been seen by someone and already reached Jiang Mantian’s ears.
