The Time-Limited Love and Marriage-Chapter 542
Fu Wangning had come prepared and actually brought the few prescriptions with her.
Jiang Moxi was responsible and had annotated the errors in dosage and usage.
"Pretty much like that, you should go back and look at it some more, and you should be able to avoid such mistakes in the future."
After Jiang Moxi had marked the errors, she handed the prescriptions back to Fu Wangning and stood up to leave.
Fu Wangning took the prescriptions with some anxiety: "Are you leaving now?"
"I’m going to a fashion show with Dingding this afternoon," said Jiang Moxi.
She thought, she might as well have the words "refusing to be alone with Fu Wangning any longer" etched on her face.
But seemingly blind to this, Fu Wangning actually reached out and grabbed her hand.
"Can I go with you to the fashion show?"
Jiang Moxi turned abruptly, her cool gaze meeting Fu Wangning’s directly.
Perhaps it was the piercing nature of her stare, or something else, but it suddenly made Fu Wangning feel inexplicably panicked, as if her plan had been seen through.
And it wasn’t just Fu Wangning’s imagination, because Jiang Moxi said: "Fu Wangning, there’s a way back if you turn around."
Yes, in Jiang Moxi’s eyes, Fu Wangning was smart, and with her exceptional research in traditional Chinese medicine, she was a rare talent.
If Fu Wangning had focused only on TCM and continued pursuing it, she would one day become the best in her field, benefiting humanity and loved by all.
But Fu Wangning fell prey to greed.
She coveted Fu Youhan, who wasn’t hers to begin with, and before achieving anything substantial, she grasped for fame and fortune that was not hers to have, hence the current situation.
Moreover, Jiang Moxi felt that Fu Wangning was not someone who could humbly accept others’ advice, otherwise there wouldn’t have been that live-streamed competition in the first place.
Therefore, she had long realized that Fu Wangning’s invitation to meet and humbly asking about prescription issues was probably just her brewing something.
Especially now, with Fu Wangning suggesting they go to the show together...
Jiang Moxi could almost certainly confirm that Fu Wangning intended to harm her.
So after delivering her warning, she pulled her hand away from Fu Wangning.
What Jiang Moxi didn’t know was that as soon as she left the café, Fu Wangning dialed Old John’s number.
"Act immediately."
Fu Wangning stared intensely in the direction Jiang Moxi had left, her eyes filled with deep hatred.
She didn’t believe Jiang Moxi’s advice was for her own good.
If Jiang Moxi really cared about her, she should just die.
That way, whether it was the ownership right of Fu Youhan or the respect in the field of TCM, it would all belong to Fu Wangning!

Jiang Moxi had just left the café, intending to get into her car, when suddenly a gun was pressed against her back.
"Little girl, if you want to live, come with us now."
A tall foreign man said behind Jiang Moxi.
Jiang Moxi lowered her head to the side and saw the clear Old John Mercenary Corps insignia on the man’s gun, causing her brows to furrow slightly.
"Who sent you? Fu Wangning?"
"It doesn’t matter who sent us. The important thing is that you have to come with us now," the man pressed the gun barrel against Jiang Moxi’s waist to heighten the tension.
The faint light in Jiang Moxi’s eyes flickered, and then she chose to go with the foreign man.
A few minutes later, Jiang Moxi was pushed into a van.
There were several other kidnappers in the car, and Fu Wangning was sitting right in the passenger seat of the van.
"Moxi, scared?" Fu Wangning smiled at Jiang Moxi, as sincere as ever.
"Just don’t regret it," said Jiang Moxi, her expression unchanged, even taking in the scenery outside the window.
It was as if she regarded the guns in the hands of the two mercenaries beside her as mere toy decorations.
"What do I have to regret? As long as you are dead, Brother Han will surely choose me," chuckled Fu Wangning playfully.
Jiang Moxi let out a light laugh: "That’s all the ambition you have, hoping to pick up my leftovers."
This remark hit a nerve with Fu Wangning, and her words became aggressive: "Jiang Moxi, you bitch! If it weren’t for you stealing his love, Brother Han and I would have been together long ago. Go to hell now!"
Fu Wangning got so excited she even attempted to grab the gun placed next to the handbrake by the driving mercenary.
But as soon as she touched the gun, the driving mercenary slapped her hand away harshly: "Don’t mess with things in our car, you ignorant fool!"
Fu Wangning was scolded in front of Jiang Moxi, fuming with anger.
But the mercenary looked fierce and menacing, and his gaze on her, Fu Wangning, held not a trace of mercy or chivalry, so in the end, she did not reach for the gun again.
Yet she still commanded indignantly, "Then shoot her now! What are you hesitating for?"
The mercenary said, "The employer’s instructions were to bring her back, transfer the liquid assets under her name to an anonymous account first."
Fu Wangning pondered for a moment and then nodded: "That’s true, Miss Xi from the Feng Family and Yunshang’s chief designer X must have no small amount of assets under their name."
As she said this, she specifically turned to look at Jiang Moxi in the back seat before continuing, "We can’t let others benefit from this, right, Moxi?"
Jiang Moxi, rarely taking her eyes off the scenery outside the car window, now rested her gaze upon Fu Wangning.
"But whoever I let benefit from me, it won’t be you," Jiang Moxi said with a wry smile.
Fu Wangning laughed lightly: "It’s not up to you now. Let’s just wait and see."
After this, Fu Wangning didn’t continue to squabble with Jiang Moxi, and the van moved on, arriving at a nearby abandoned factory.
This was a temporary base for the Old John Mercenary Corps in Emperor City, with several people guarding the entrance, guns in hand.
As soon as the van stopped, these people automatically approached.
"The goods have arrived."
"Wow, she’s pretty. Can we have some fun first?"
When Jiang Moxi was pushed out of the van, several people gathered around to make comments.
"My god, I’ve never seen a woman with such good skin, practically like creamy jade."
One of them even reached out to touch Jiang Moxi’s face.
The situation changed in an instant.
Just as his hand was about to touch Jiang Moxi’s face, she grabbed the gun from his hand and without saying a word shot him right between the eyebrows.
With a loud "bang," the man fell down, a bloody hole appearing on his forehead.
The incident happened so suddenly that even Fu Wangning, who had just gotten out of the car, hadn’t figured out what was happening when she saw the mercenaries guarding the entrance running over.
In addition, countless people rushed out from the abandoned factory, all aiming their guns at Jiang Moxi.
Fu Wangning’s first thought was that Jiang Moxi acted in self-defense, grabbing the gun and shooting; hitting between the eyebrows was possible due to close range, and the dead fool was unprepared.
She even thought that Jiang Moxi making such a big fuss at this moment was simply courting death.
She thought she would soon see the sight of Jiang Moxi lying dead in front of her; feeling that she couldn’t bear to watch such a gruesome scene, she hid behind the vehicle, waiting for the blindly flying bullets to finish before going out.
True to Fu Wangning’s expectations, shortly after she hid, there were continuous gunshots outside.
About five minutes later, the gunfire ceased.
Fu Wangning thought that Jiang Moxi must have been riddled with bullets by now, so she quietly peeked out to check...
