Chapter 1136 Familiar Face

She stumbled out of the cafe, clutching the USB drive tightly in her hand, feeling that it was a time bomb that could destroy everything she had at any time.

After returning home, Jiang Mubai locked himself in the room and inserted the USB drive into the computer. A scene of Cheng Yunchuan and his mother arguing appeared on the screen. Then, Cheng Yunchuan pushed his mother hard, and his mother fell to the ground, motionless.

Jiang Mubai covered her mouth to stop herself from crying. She replayed the video over and over again, trying to find a glimmer of hope that all this was not true. But the cruel reality shattered her fantasy again and again.

When Cheng Yunchuan returned home, he saw Jiang Mubai sitting in front of the computer, his face pale and his eyes empty.

"Mu Bai, what's wrong with you?" He walked up to her and asked with concern.

Jiang Mubai raised his head suddenly, his eyes full of fear and strangeness. "Why...why did you kill your mother?"

Cheng Yunchuan was stunned, his face turned pale in an instant. "You...you know everything?"

Jiang Mubai didn't say anything, but silently handed him the USB drive.

After watching the video, Cheng Yunchuan sat down on the ground dejectedly, covering his face with his hands, his body trembling.

"I...I didn't mean it..." He choked up, "I just...I just wanted her to agree that we should be together..."

Jiang Mubai looked at him, her heart aching. She once thought she had found true love, someone she could spend her life with, but now, all of this has turned into a terrible lie.

"We're finished." Jiang Mubai's voice was cold, without a trace of emotion.

Cheng Yunchuan raised his head, his eyes filled with despair. "Mu Bai, listen to my explanation..."

"No need to explain." Jiang Mubai interrupted him, "It's all over."

She turned and left without hesitation. She didn't know where to go or what to do, but she knew that she couldn't be with this man anymore.

Cheng Yunchuan collapsed on the ground, tears silently falling. He had lost his mother and his beloved. His life had completely fallen into the abyss.

Jiang Mubai walked aimlessly on the street, the cold wind scraped her face like a knife, but she could not feel a trace of coldness. Her heart was numb and she could not feel any emotion.

Suddenly, a black car stopped in front of her, the window slowly rolled down, revealing a familiar face.

"Get in the car." The man's tone was cold and left no room for doubt.

Jiang Mubai was stunned. Looking at the man in front of him, an inexplicable fear surged in his heart.

This man is Cheng Yunchuan's half brother, Cheng Yunfeng, a man she has always tried to avoid but cannot get rid of.

Jiang Mubai did not move. Everyone in the circle knew who Cheng Yunfeng was. He was ruthless and eccentric. He was the illegitimate son of the Cheng family who was not allowed to see the light of day. He had always been resentful of Cheng Yunchuan for inheriting the family business. If she fell into his hands, what good would happen to her?

"What? Are you afraid that I will eat you?" Cheng Yunfeng sneered, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone.

"Cheng Yunchuan's affairs have nothing to do with me." Jiang Mubai's voice trembled as he tried to stay calm.

"It's irrelevant?" Cheng Yunfeng laughed as if he had heard a joke, his laughter sounding particularly harsh in the empty street. "You have evidence in your hand that could put him in jail for life, and you say it's irrelevant?"

Jiang Mubai bit his lips and said nothing. Cheng Yunfeng was right. The video in the USB drive was a time bomb that could explode at any time.

"Get in the car, let's talk." Cheng Yunfeng restrained his smile and his tone returned to being cold.

Jiang Mubai hesitated for a moment, but finally got in the car. She knew that escaping was not a solution, and she had to face it all.

The car was filled with a faint smell of tobacco, mixed with the scent of some men's perfume, which made Jiang Mubai feel suffocated.

"What do you want?" Jiang Mubai asked straight to the point.

Cheng Yunfeng did not answer immediately. Instead, he lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and then slowly exhaled smoke rings. In the smoke, his eyes seemed even more profound and unfathomable.

"I want you to marry me."

Jiang Mubai was stunned, wondering if he had heard wrongly. "What did you say?"

"I said, I want you to marry me." Cheng Yunfeng repeated, his tone firm and unquestionable.

"Are you crazy?" Jiang Mubai looked at him in disbelief, "You know very well that I love Cheng Yunchuan."

"Love?" Cheng Yunfeng sneered, "Your so-called love almost killed him, do you know that?"

Jiang Mubai was silent. Cheng Yunfeng's words were like a sharp knife, piercing her heart.

"Marry me, I can protect Cheng Yunchuan, and I can also protect you." Cheng Yunfeng's voice was low and tempting, "Otherwise, both of you will be doomed."

Jiang Mubai is caught in a dilemma. On one side is the man she loves deeply, and on the other side is the fear of the unknown. What should she do?

"I..." Jiang Mubai opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.

"Give you a day to think about it." Cheng Yunfeng interrupted her, "I will come to see you again at this time tomorrow."

After saying that, he opened the car door and pushed Jiang Mubai out.

Jiang Mubai staggered to his feet and looked at the black car speeding away, his heart filled with despair.

She was like a lonely boat, drifting on the vast ocean, not knowing where to go.

The next day, Cheng Yunfeng arrived as promised.

"Have you thought about it?" He looked at Jiang Mubai with a hint of amusement in his eyes.

Jiang Mubai took a deep breath and made a decision that even shocked herself.

"I promise you."

Cheng Yunfeng smiled, with a hint of pride in his smile. He took out a diamond ring from his pocket and put it on Jiang Mubai's ring finger.

"Good," he said. "You made a wise choice."

Jiang Mubai looked at the shining diamond ring on her hand, but her heart felt cold. She knew that her life would be on a path of no return from now on.

On the wedding day, Jiang Mubai wore a pure white wedding dress and stood in front of the mirror. Looking at the unfamiliar self in the mirror, she felt like she was dreaming.

"You are so beautiful." Cheng Yunfeng hugged her from behind and whispered in her ear.

Jiang Mubai's body stiffened for a moment and he didn't say anything.

"From today on, you are my wife." Cheng Yunfeng's voice was trembling and excited. "I will take good care of you."

Jiang Mubai closed her eyes, and two lines of tears fell silently. She knew that she could never go back.

The wedding march sounded, Jiang Mubai held Cheng Yunfeng's hand and walked towards the end of the red carpet step by step. Every step she took was like stepping on the tip of a knife, the pain was unbearable.

At this moment, the door of the church was suddenly pushed open, and a familiar figure appeared at the door.

"Mu Bai!" Cheng Yunchuan's voice was hoarse, with a hint of despair.

Jiang Mubai suddenly raised his head and looked at Cheng Yunchuan standing at the door, his eyes filled with shock and... a hint of joy?

Cheng Yunchuan's appearance was like a bomb that exploded at the wedding. The guests were whispering, and Cheng Yunfeng's face was terribly gloomy. Jiang Mubai's heart was beating like thunder, as if it was about to jump out of his chest.
