Chapter 75 Rolling into a Muddle

"If I really coveted your wife, I could have just taken her back openly. I could even have made you leave with nothing. Feng Jinchen, if you keep spouting nonsense in front of me, you can forget about being the CEO."

Feng Jinchen's expression grew increasingly grim. "What gives you the right?"

"With my ability, you're just a good-for-nothing."

Feng Jinchen left dejectedly, having been thoroughly humiliated. He found Su Xi alone on the rooftop, enjoying the breeze.

He adjusted his expression and walked over. "Wife, I'm sorry about what happened today. I was in that position and had no choice but to do what I was told."

"knew."

The woman's indifferent reaction made the man swallow back all the carefully prepared excuses he had prepared.

After a long pause, she asked with a hint of anger, "Su Xi, don't you have anything to say?"

Su Xi finally gave the man a pitying look. "You're ridiculous. You flirt and joke with your blind date in front of your wife. You can't protect your wife, you don't dare to acknowledge your wife, you don't trust your wife, and you kick her when she's down without asking right or wrong. So where do you get the nerve to question me now?"

The man's face flushed red, clearly out of shame and indignation, but he didn't think he was wrong.

His voice suddenly rose several octaves, "How many times have I said it? I was just playing along. And with you involved, I had no choice. Anyone would overthink things in that situation. I lost control because I care about you too much. Otherwise, even if some random cat or dog on the street got played to death, I wouldn't even blink an eye."

"If you compare your wife to a cat or a dog, then aren't you a cat or a dog yourself?"

The man's expression turned completely cold, and his gaze towards the woman became somewhat unfamiliar and sharp.

"Tell me the truth, are you going to move out and cause trouble for me again after your brother's bone marrow is matched? Others are shameless, but aren't you shameless for using someone and then discarding them?"

Su Xi was taken aback.

Seeing a flicker of emotion finally appear on the woman's cold, expressionless face, the man narrowed his eyes. "Don't try to leave me. Otherwise, even if 100 people are a match, I'll make sure your brother doesn't get a single bone marrow transplant."

"Feng Jinchen, how did you become like this?"

"Likewise." The man turned and left, and Su Xi quickly followed.

"Feng Jinchen, I was almost set up today and I'm in a bad mood, that's why..."

Seeing the woman biting her lower lip, her face full of panic and caution, Feng Jinchen slowly stopped in his tracks.

He raised an eyebrow, his expression cold, signaling the woman to continue.

"I shouldn't have said those things to you, I...I apologize."

He begged for forgiveness, but the woman discarded him like trash. Then, in the blink of an eye, it was the woman begging for forgiveness, which made him feel much better. His anger subsided.

The man softened his voice, "Let's have a proper talk."

Feng Jue, who was behind the wall, overheard this and his peach blossom eyes suddenly deepened. Using his brother-in-law's life as leverage, Feng Jinchen was truly despicable.

The man casually adjusted his suit cufflinks and openly eavesdropped.

"Your uncle likes you, will you admit it now?"

Recalling that passionate kiss under the bridge, Su Xi's cheeks flushed uncontrollably, but her voice remained nonchalant, "His heart belongs to someone else. Whether he likes me or not is his freedom, and I can't control that."

"So you admit it? And what about you?"

Su Xi unconsciously clenched her fingers. The car accident was related to the Feng family, including her uncle.

“I only regard him as my uncle. Others may be able to do this kind of thing that messes up the generational hierarchy, but I only feel hatred and disgust.”

Seeing that the woman's expression didn't seem fake, Feng Jinchen felt relieved and reached out to pull her into his arms.

Su Xi forced herself not to push the man away.

"Xixi, I'm sorry. It's my fault for being useless and letting Uncle bully you like this. I'm so sorry you had to suffer..."

The sound of leather shoes scraping the ground came from behind. Feng Jinchen pulled Su Xi over to look, only to see the back of a man walking away.

"Could it be my uncle?"

"I don't think so." Though she said this, Su Xi felt as if her heart had been crushed into several pieces.

She had no idea when it started, but she and Feng Jue had become so familiar that she could identify him from just a blurry silhouette.

My uncle must hate her completely this time. That's for the best.

Inside the car.

Xia Wanqing clung to Gong Shaofan like an octopus, crying so hard she almost fainted.

"Brother Shao Fan, I have never suffered such a humiliation in my life. I... I really don't want to live anymore."

"Su Xi is perfectly fine, yet we have to suffer such inhuman humiliation. Don't they have any humanity at all?"

"What's most infuriating is that Su Xi knew all along, yet she treated us like monkeys. She's the most despicable and treacherous villain."

"Brother Shao Fan, you must avenge me, otherwise I will never be able to face anyone again..."

Only after the woman in his arms had cried herself to sleep did Gong Shaofan say softly, "Wanqing, why did you target Su Xi for no reason? No matter how bad that woman is, she's still half a member of the Feng family, especially in such a grand setting. Even if you wanted to do it, you should have told me first, otherwise how could I save you?"

The woman paused in her sobs, tears streaming down her face as she looked at Gong Shaofan. Her voice was hoarse from crying; this man hadn't even promised to strip Su Xi naked, and now he was questioning her?

Seeing the man's cold expression, Xia Wanqing's heart skipped a beat. She absolutely couldn't let her gentle and kind image crumble.

The woman lowered her eyes, her gaze flickering, and bit her lip tightly. "I was instructed by someone else."

Who is it?

"It was...it was Bai Luwei. She was the one who hinted at me doing this. Ever since the Ye family canceled the cooperation, the Gong family has been going through a difficult time. I wanted to win over the Bai family and the Gong family to help Shao Fan, but I didn't expect..."

You, Bai Luwei!

Gong Shaofan held the kind and innocent woman tightly in his arms. "Don't worry, I will definitely make my father and the Feng family cancel their cooperation and avenge you."

After coaxing Gong Shaofan into persuading Gong Zhengnan, Xia Wanqing's eyes darted around as she called her distant cousin Qu Tianci, who had been lusting after her.

The Gong family group is weak and isolated; if the Qu family were added to the mix, the Feng family would definitely be in serious trouble. She wanted to teach these people a lesson for bullying her, Xia Yuqing.

In the intimate private room, the man's eyes were filled with heartache and pity as he looked at the tearful, delicate woman.

"Wanqing, tell me, what do you want me to do?"

"Terminate all contracts with the Feng family."

The man's eyes flickered, a glint of shrewdness flashing in them. "Okay, but..."

Xia Wanqing lowered her eyes and pursed her lips. She had already been seen naked by so many men and women today, so why should she care about her body?

Seeing the woman's shy and acquiescing expression, Qu Tianci became so excited that his breathing became heavy. He picked her up and placed her on his lap.

The woman half-heartedly resisted, letting the man undress her and peel her like a translucent lychee.

The middle-aged man let out a low growl and rolled around on the sofa with the woman.
