Both the male and female leads are pure!
After three years of marriage, she finally realized whether her other half was a human or a ghost. After she proposed divorce, he regretted it. After ...
Chapter 83 Using as Bait
Su Xi bit her lower lip. She had already cooperated with that man without any limits today, and he was still not satisfied? He still wanted to bring up Luo Chen's bone marrow transplant?
She called Feng Jinchen directly, but he didn't answer.
Checking the time, Su Xi had no choice but to take off her bathrobe, change into more casual clothes, and head straight to the agreed-upon location.
She arrived at the private room, but only after walking halfway did she see the man sitting on the sofa, and she suddenly stopped in her tracks.
Upon seeing Su Xi, Feng Jingnian put down his cup, stood up, and went to greet her. His handsome face, with its innate aloofness and pride, now held a hint of surging emotion.
"Xiao Xi."
Su Xi took a step back. "Where is Feng Jinchen?"
The man paused for a moment, then smiled knowingly. "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone about what happened today. Feng Jinchen has another woman outside. I know you want a divorce, and I can help you."
"Thank you, but it's very late today, and it's not appropriate for us to meet alone. Let's do it another day." Su Xi's expression was aloof as she turned and walked towards the door.
The moment he opened the door, the man turned and closed it behind him, a hint of hurt on his handsome face. "Xiaoxi, I did pursue you, but we can't even be friends, can we? The innocent are innocent. Do you not believe me, or do you not believe yourself?"
"Have a cup of tea, chat for a bit, what's there to be afraid of?"
Looking up, she saw the man's clear eyes. Having known him for so many years, she trusted his character. Su Xi hesitated for a moment.
Suddenly thinking that she might be able to ask him about her mother's affairs, Su Xi pursed her lips and nodded.
After sitting down, Feng Jingnian poured a cup of tea and pushed it over to him.
Su Xi cut to the chase, "Jingnian, have you heard the Feng family or anyone else mention my mother's car accident? Are there any special details?"
The man frowned in thought, then finally shook his head. "I'm sorry, no."
There was nothing particularly special about it; it was nothing more than a pity that such a beautiful woman had such a short life. He didn't want to say it and hurt the woman's feelings.
Seeing that the man was thinking hard, Su Xi smiled gratefully even though she didn't get the answer she wanted.
"Xiaoxi, what are your thoughts on the divorce?"
Why do you ask that?
"Are you not getting a divorce because of your brother? Or do you still have feelings for him?"
Meeting the man's burning gaze, Su Xi subconsciously glanced at his face.
The man's face seemed different from before; his cheeks were abnormally flushed.
"Have you been drinking?"
"No." Su Xi reminded him, and Feng Jingnian also felt a strange heat in his body. He unconsciously unbuttoned two buttons, revealing his beautiful collarbone.
Su Xi picked up the teacup, and just as she brought it to her lips, the man's large hand grasped hers, enveloping her small hand as well.
"I can't drink this. Damn it." The man pushed all the cups and tea on the table to the ground.
"What's wrong?"
"You know I drink foxtail lily tea almost every day, but surprisingly, mixing it with this tea... can be arousing."
Su Xi's eyes widened as she saw the man's breathing become visibly rapid, and his gaze towards her became fiery.
He unbuttoned his coat with one hand and tossed it onto the table.
Before she could react, the man pushed her down onto the nanmu wood table.
The faint smell of tobacco emanated from the suit jacket beneath him.
"Feng Jingnian, are you crazy? Let me go."
The man's eyes were already glazed over, and he muttered words of admiration to himself, seemingly unable to hear Su Xi's words at all.
"I will take responsibility."
Su Xi could feel the burning heat emanating from his body.
His deep, heavy breathing contained both excitement and discomfort.
Su Xi sympathized with him, but they absolutely could not.
The moment the man landed steadily, she turned her head and bit his wrist hard.
Blood made the man's eyes turn crimson. He pressed his large hand against her neck and unbuttoned her blouse with his other hand.
Knowing the man was delirious, Su Xi closed her eyes in despair. This time, no one would come to save her.
"Mr. Feng," Liu Cheng pushed open the door and entered the private room, glanced at Luo Anya, and whispered in the man's ear, "Miss Su, she..."
"Shut up." Feng Juejun's face was slightly red, obviously from drinking alcohol, and there was a finger's worth of cream smeared on his cheek.
"Don't tell me about her anymore."
Seeing Liu Cheng's troubled and anxious expression, the man coldly said, "Tell Feng Jinchen!"
"yes."
When Feng Jinchen broke down the door and entered the private room, Su Xi was already only wearing her underwear.
He rushed over and punched the man in the jaw, then splashed a bottle of ice water on the man's face.
Feng Jingnian slumped onto the sofa. The biting cold brought his reason back slightly. Through his blurry vision, he saw Feng Jinchen take off his coat and drape it over Su Xi, then pick the woman up in his arms.
As soon as the tension eased, he fell into a deep sleep.
"Give him the antidote."
Feng Jinchen gave the order. If Feng Jingnian were to pass away, he might become his sworn enemy, so there was no need for him to take the risk.
Picking up the pinhole camera from the corner, a glint of shrewdness flashed in Feng Jinchen's eyes.
Looking down at the terrified woman in his arms, his heart ached, and he unconsciously tightened his grip on her.
Although his actions were somewhat despicable, they were all interconnected, and he managed to trap Feng Jingnian in just two days. He was still somewhat pleased with himself.
Back at the villa, Su Xi had fully regained her senses. "Jin Chen, thank you this time."
“I’m your husband, you’re not allowed to say that word anymore. Aunt Liu will take care of you here, I have to go back to the company.”
The man patted her head and stood up.
"Jinchen, how is Feng Jingnian?"
The man paused, his expression suddenly turning cold. "Shouldn't you be asking if he's dead? He did this to you, and you still care about him?"
"He didn't mean to..."
"That's enough, Su Xi. Even if you are the victim, you were almost seen naked by another man. I'm already being lenient by not pursuing this matter. Don't push your luck."
His words nearly turned into a roar by the end. Without waiting for Su Xi's reply, he slammed the door and left.
He now realized that this woman was only harsh and cruel to him, but incredibly tolerant and soft-hearted to others.
He initially felt guilty for using Su Xi in this matter. Now it seems this woman is probably more than willing to accept it.
Su Xi tightened her grip on the blanket, but still called Feng Jingnian's assistant to let him know that he had been taken to the hospital and was safe and sound before she could relax.
On the second day, upon arriving at the Feng Corporation, I heard that Feng Jingnian had been removed from his post and Feng Jinchen had once again become the president.
Su Xi inquired with insiders and learned that Feng Jinchen had convened a shareholder video conference overnight and released the video of Feng Jingnian forcing himself on her, which ultimately led to Feng Jingnian's resignation.
I feel like something's not quite right.
Su Xi held her phone and pondered for a long time. Suddenly, a flash of inspiration cleaved through the chaos, almost enlightening her and breaking her heart.
Feng Jinchen once said that he would bring down Feng Jingnian in less than a week. Could it be that all of this was a trap set by him?
Using her as bait to pave his future?
Su Xi could hardly believe it was true, and dialed the number with trembling hands.
