Did Scumbag A Get Divorced Today? - Chapter 59.2
Now that Li Jiang had shared the photo, it quickly drew attention online. The moment people realized Li Jiang had liked Jiang Siyue since high school, public opinion toward her improved even more—and fans began sincerely supporting their relationship.
— Wow, she’s liked her for that many years? I didn’t expect someone who looks so cool and distant to be this loyal.
— Jiang Jiang, what were you thinking?! You’ve got someone this amazing and waited this long? What if she had slipped away? You’d be crying with no one to blame but yourself!
— And those people who accused Jiang Siyue of having plastic surgery, still want to talk? Just look at that photo—clearly a natural beauty since high school!
— Seriously, she was already that stunning back in school. No wonder someone could love her for years without moving on. If anyone fell for someone like that at a young age, it’d be hard to fall for anyone else after.
This grand relationship reveal was clearly seen by Li Yi and the others too.
Li Yi was almost laughing out of frustration. Her cousin used to be so stubborn, always refusing to make the first move no matter how much she pushed her. She’d insist she didn’t like Jiang Siyue and acted all aloof. But now? The moment no one was watching, she silently made her move and got the girl.
And that photo? She said she didn’t like her, but where did that old picture come from, then?
Li Yi had already started thinking about when to organize their engagement party. She was genuinely worried that if things kept going this way, Jiang Siyue might get fed up and run off—especially with how emotionally reserved Li Jiang could be.
While everything was going smoothly and happily for them, someone else was fuming in secret.
After seeing the way public opinion had turned online, Jiang Bosheng was so angry he smashed his computer.
“Didn’t you say that releasing this news would ruin her career? That she’d be finished in the entertainment industry? Then can someone tell me what the hell this is?!”
Jiang Bosheng pointed at the broken computer, his face stormy as he glared at his team.
His subordinates, long used to his temper, still couldn’t help but tense up. Every outburst from him felt like a punch to the gut.
“President Jiang,” one of them explained nervously, “we didn’t expect the fans to react this way. I mean, she’s an idol—dating scandals are usually career killers. But instead, the whole internet’s blessing them!”
Jiang Bosheng let out a cold, sharp laugh.
“Keep watching them. Next time, they won’t get off so easily.”
If everyone wanted to go against him, he had no problem taking them all down.
——
Back on Sui Yu’s side, none of them knew that Jiang Bosheng was the mastermind behind it all. Their first guess was that it was the work of one of Jiang Siyue’s rivals in the industry, so they didn’t feel too alarmed.
That night, everyone gathered together. Jiang Siyue boldly took Li Jiang’s hand and addressed the group.
“You’ve all seen the trending news, so we don’t really need to say much more. But—there’s one thing I do want to say.”
She turned to Li Yi, and her confident expression instantly changed into one of exaggerated innocence. With a hint of pleading in her eyes, she said,
“Yi-jie, I’m constantly traveling for work now and can’t keep an eye on her. Can you please watch her for me? Don’t let her flirt with anyone else!”
The sudden switch in tone caught everyone off guard for a moment, but then a round of laughter broke out.
“She wouldn’t dare,” Li Yi said, shooting a sharp look at Li Jiang.
Usually gentle and calm, Li Yi’s gaze at that moment carried a quiet threat that made Li Jiang shiver slightly.
Li Jiang lowered her head and gently tugged on Jiang Siyue’s hand.
“I won’t,” she said softly.
“Good. Keep it that way.” Jiang Siyue patted her hand casually, clearly not trusting Alphas too easily.
Li Jiang pursed her lips but didn’t respond further.
Seeing how completely Jiang Siyue had Li Jiang wrapped around her finger, Sui Yu couldn’t help but feel satisfied. She grinned and said,
“Siyue calls my wife ‘sister-in-law.’ Now that you’re with her, what do you think you should call my wife?”
Her smile was playful—clearly trying to tease the usually cool and reserved Li Jiang.
Li Jiang froze slightly and looked calmly at Sui Yu.
But with Shen Jueshu sitting right beside her, Sui Yu felt no pressure at all. She continued with a mischievous grin,
“Or maybe you prefer another title? Since Siyue is Shen Jueshu’s goddaughter, and I’m the Shen family’s eldest daughter-in-law… as the younger daughter-in-law, what do you think you should call me?”
This time, not only did Li Jiang go quiet—so did everyone else at the table.
Under the table, Shen Jueshu reached out and gently tugged Sui Yu’s hand, her voice holding back a laugh.
“Alright, that’s enough. Don’t tease her anymore.”
Sui Yu pouted a little but still obediently let Li Jiang off the hook—after all, Shen Jueshu had asked her to stop teasing.
Noticing that Sui Yu had finally backed off, Li Jiang quietly let out a breath of relief. Being asked to call someone sister-in-law… she just couldn’t bring herself to say it!
After dinner, the three couples each went their separate ways. But as they were getting into their car, Sui Yu, ever the worrywart, couldn’t help herself. She narrowed her eyes as she watched Jiang Siyue and Li Jiang walk off and called out,
“Hey—you better not let her take advantage of you so easily!”
Jiang Siyue was momentarily stunned by the comment, then quickly replied with a chuckle,
“Don’t worry. That’s not going to happen.”
Even if she wanted Li Jiang to take advantage of her, the other woman wouldn’t dare. At this point, even something as small as holding her hand rarely happened unless initiated by Siyue herself.
Sui Yu gave her a skeptical look, clearly only half-believing her words.
Seeing that expression, Jiang Siyue added helplessly,
“Don’t paint her like some kind of pervert. She’s really not that kind of person.”
If anything, she was more likely to be the one getting handsy.
Sui Yu decided—barely—to trust in Li Jiang’s character… for now.
After she got in the car, Shen Jueshu couldn’t help but chuckle softly. The laughter rose from her chest, warm and genuine, completely different from the cold, serious image she used to project.
“What are you laughing at?” Sui Yu asked, puzzled.
Shen Jueshu turned to her, her eyes tender and full of affection.
“I was just thinking… if we ever have a daughter someday, will you be this anxious when she grows up and starts dating?”
Sui Yu: “…”
A faint blush crept across her cheeks.
“That’s so far in the future. Why bring it up now?” she mumbled, a little embarrassed.
Seeing her flustered, Shen Jueshu didn’t tease her further—especially knowing that Sui Yu wasn’t one to let loose easily in public.
That night, Shen Jueshu hadn’t had anything to drink, so she took the wheel. The streets had mostly cleared after rush hour, making for smoother and faster traffic.
While waiting at a red light, Shen Jueshu turned to glance at Sui Yu—and in that split second, out of the corner of her eye, she saw a large truck speeding straight toward them from the side!
Her expression changed instantly. She slammed her foot off the brake and floored the gas pedal!
“Bang!”
The deafening crash echoed as the cars collided. Both Sui Yu and Shen Jueshu felt the world spin violently around them. Shards of broken glass slashed across their exposed skin. The entire backseat of their vehicle was wrecked.
If Shen Jueshu hadn’t reacted in that critical moment, if the truck had hit them head-on with that much force… they could’ve been crushed on the spot.
The truck had barreled into their rear, then careened into the median flowerbed, half of its chassis jammed in the greenery.
“Sui Yu!”
“Shen Jueshu!”
They both shouted at the same time, but with the airbags deployed, they couldn’t immediately see or reach each other—anxiously unsure of the other’s condition.
Thankfully, their bodyguards rushed over just in time. They pried the mangled car doors open and helped both women out. Gasoline was already leaking from the tank. Everyone moved fast, quickly getting them to a safe distance.
The truck’s engine was still roaring, its wheels screeching against the pavement like it was trying to restart.
Seeing that, the bodyguards immediately ushered Sui Yu and Shen Jueshu into another car to evacuate the area. Two of them stayed behind to handle the aftermath.
“Watch that driver—don’t let them escape,” Shen Jueshu said coldly, her eyes fixed on the truck, her gaze icy and sharp.
“Yes, ma’am!” the guards responded. No one dared let their guard down. Only after the women were safely escorted away did they return to secure the scene.
Inside the car, Sui Yu was already leaning close, checking Shen Jueshu for injuries. There were visible cuts on her face from the shattered glass, but after such a violent crash, there was no telling whether there were internal injuries or hidden trauma.
“I’m fine. Are you?”
Shen Jueshu stopped Sui Yu’s movements and looked at her with clear concern.
Sui Yu shook her head as well.
A faint smile tugged at Shen Jueshu’s lips. Fortunately, neither of them seemed to be seriously injured.
But thinking back to what had just happened, she didn’t believe for a second that the crash had been a random accident.
A truck going that fast through an intersection—and after hitting them, not even bothering to get out, just flooring the gas pedal? Nothing about that was normal.
Just as they arrived home, a message came through from the bodyguards: the truck driver reeked of alcohol. The traffic police had tested him—he was driving under the influence.
“Look into his background. I want every detail—who he is, who he’s connected to, and who he’s been paid by.”
Shen Jueshu’s voice was cold.
Even now, the thought of that moment made her shudder.
If she had hesitated even a second longer—if she hadn’t slammed the gas when she did…
She didn’t even want to imagine the outcome.
Once the call ended, Sui Yu walked up behind her and wrapped her arms around her waist. She didn’t say anything and didn’t hold her too tightly—just embraced her silently.
They stood like that for a while, quietly savoring the fragile peace that followed disaster.
Sui Yu nuzzled against her shoulder, feeling a wave of exhaustion. Living in a world where danger lurked around every corner… it was beginning to wear her down.
“It’s okay. Everything will be alright,” Shen Jueshu said softly, her hand covering Sui Yu’s.
“Mm.”
Sui Yu responded with a quiet hum.
Maybe it was the trauma of what had just happened, or maybe it was pure instinct—but both of them were exhausted.
Still, Sui Yu insisted on checking whether Shen Jueshu was truly uninjured. Embarrassment was the last thing on her mind now. She grabbed a change of clothes and followed her into the bathroom, clearly intending to shower together.
Shen Jueshu looked at her, their eyes met—and after a few seconds of silent standoff, she gave in.
Sui Yu stepped into the bathroom with her and locked her gaze on Shen Jueshu without looking away once.
Shen Jueshu: “…”
Letting out a soft sigh, she slowly took off her clothes. Along her ribs, there was a deep, dark bruise—likely from the seatbelt.
Sui Yu gently touched the area with her fingertips, pressing down here and there to check for broken bones. Seeing that Shen Jueshu didn’t seem to be in pain, her heart gradually settled.
“I’m not the type to play games with my own health,” Shen Jueshu said with a sigh. “If it were serious, I wouldn’t hide it from you. It’s just a bruise, not something life-threatening.”
Sui Yu gave a light snort, her nose slightly stuffy.
“And how would I know that?”
Shen Jueshu raised an eyebrow, her gaze now falling on Sui Yu.
“Well, you’ve seen mine. Isn’t it only fair that I get to see yours too?”
Sui Yu suddenly realized what she meant—and the delayed wave of embarrassment hit her all at once. As she shifted her gaze away from Shen Jueshu’s bruise, her eyes landed elsewhere… and her face turned scarlet.
So… so beautiful.
Even with the injury, there was something breathtaking about her. A kind of wounded elegance that only made her more alluring.
“I—I’ll go out first,” Sui Yu stammered, her earlier courage quickly evaporating. When she was worried about Shen Jueshu, she hadn’t cared about anything. But now that she was sure she was okay, embarrassment took over.
It was one thing to cuddle or kiss on normal days—but this? She really wasn’t prepared for this level of intimacy!
Before she could slip away, Shen Jueshu had already reached out and grabbed her by the collar. Her voice was cool as she said,
“Watch and run? You think it’s that easy?”
Sui Yu froze, face stiffening. She turned to look at Shen Jueshu with teary puppy eyes, trying her best to appear pitiful and maybe soften her heart.
But Shen Jueshu merely sneered, and with both hands, gave her collar a sharp tug.
Rip!
Buttons popped and scattered on the floor with an audible clatter.
Sui Yu went completely still. With Shen Jueshu’s strength, even three of her wouldn’t be a match—no way she was struggling out of this.
Toes curling from nerves, she instinctively tried to cover herself, but under Shen Jueshu’s piercing gaze, her arms slowly fell back down.
Sui Yu: “…”
That look alone could kill someone!
As Shen Jueshu peeled away Sui Yu’s shirt, she immediately saw the dark bruise across her ribs—clearly from the seatbelt.
Her gaze dimmed.
Anger flared in her chest.
When she had seen her own injuries earlier, she hadn’t reacted much. But seeing Sui Yu hurt—something inside her snapped.
“Don’t be mad, don’t be mad… We’re both fine now,” Sui Yu said quickly, sensing her shift in mood. She stepped forward and hugged her gently, trying to soothe her.
Shen Jueshu took a deep breath, then grabbed Sui Yu’s hand and started washing up—fast and with no hint of romance. All she wanted was to finish quickly and get out.
Her brisk attitude affected Sui Yu too, who slowly relaxed over time. By the end, she’d let go of her earlier awkwardness.
After the shower, Shen Jueshu brought out the first aid kit and began tending to Sui Yu’s wounds—cleaning abrasions, placing band-aids on her face, and massaging bruises with medicated oil.
Sui Yu quietly let her do everything without protest. When Shen Jueshu was done, she sat up and said,
“Let me put some ointment on you too.”
To this, Shen Jueshu gave a small nod. She was still learning how to rely on Sui Yu—bit by bit.
Once they were both treated, they washed their hands and lay down in bed. But the sharp scent of medicine lingered between them.
Staring at each other in silence, they both let out a small sigh.
The smell of medicine completely covered their natural scents, and it felt a little off.
“I still prefer the way you normally smell,” Shen Jueshu said softly. She’d smelled this medicinal scent on Sui Yu far too often lately.
“I like your natural scent too,” Sui Yu murmured, turning to wrap her arms around Shen Jueshu. She kissed the corner of her eye and whispered,
“Let’s sleep. We’ll deal with everything tomorrow.”
“Mm,” Shen Jueshu replied quietly.
They were both so exhausted that they fell asleep not long after.
—
Meanwhile, on the other side of town, Jiang Bosheng was slapped—hard. His head snapped to the side, and a red handprint bloomed across his left cheek.
A woman’s voice, laced with deadly venom, rang in his ears.
“Who gave you permission to go after them?”
Just hearing her voice made him instinctively tremble.
But despite the fear, he also burned with resentment. He turned back, fury in his eyes as he glared at the woman.
“Why shouldn’t I go after them?” he snapped. “Do you know what they’ve done to me? I’ve lost everything! And all the things you have now—who do you think made them possible?!”
“I want them dead. I want all of them gone!”
Everyone who stood in his way—no one deserved to be spared.
But before the woman could respond, another harsh slap landed on the other side of his face. His right cheek swelled instantly.
A man’s cold, chilling voice came from nearby,
“Watch your mouth.”
Jiang Bosheng lowered his head, hatred simmering in his eyes. His fists clenched tightly at his sides, but he said nothing more.
Still… one day.
One day, he would make them pay for this.
His silence meant nothing to the others in the room. The woman tapped her fingers against the tabletop, filling the air with a steady rhythm. After a long moment—just as the silence turned suffocating—she finally spoke.
“A’Jing,” she said calmly, “Find a way to split them up.”
“Watching them together makes me sick.”
The man called A’Jing gave a short reply, then swiftly left the room.
Jiang Bosheng’s eyes flickered with suspicion. He was beginning to question this woman’s motives more and more.
