Chapter 71 A Good Idea
"Sister Xia, you don't like that woman either?" Lai Mengqi thought Xia Wanqing was looking at Su Xi.
"Um."
Seeing the woman nod, Lai Mengqi was overjoyed, a glint of light flashing in her eyes. "Sister Xia, I have a good idea." She then whispered something in Xia Wanqing's ear.
"Haha, not bad. Go ahead and do it. I'll take responsibility if anything goes wrong."
"Okay." Lai Mengqi smiled and walked away quickly.
Xia Wanqing was in a great mood. She gently shook her Drymartini and leisurely looked in the direction of the two women and the cat, her eyes full of smugness.
They'll start by using Su Xi as a practice target, then it'll be Ye Qingqian next; none of them will escape.
The waiter brought over the strawberry coconut milk dessert that Su Xi had ordered and the watermelon milk pudding that Ye Qingqian had ordered.
Ye Qingqian picked it up and took a sip. It was cool, sweet, and delicious.
Su Xi picked up the crystal glass, fluttered her long eyelashes, and casually placed it on the table.
Why aren't you drinking?
"It's a bit cold, I'll drink it later."
Halfway through the annual meeting, seeing that Su Xi's strawberry juice was almost empty, Lai Mengqi whispered something to her two best friends, Wen Ziyi and Lan Xing.
Soon, Wen Ziyi walked over, swirling her wine glass, when suddenly her high heel twisted, spilling red wine all over Su Xi's skirt.
"Excuse me, I lost my footing." Wen Ziyi seemed to have twisted her ankle, and limped over to pick up a tissue to wipe Su Xi's face.
The skirt was soaked, covered in bright red stains, and how could it be wiped off?
"How could you be so careless?" Ye Qingqian's eyes flashed with a fierce light.
Wen Ziyi shrank back in fright. "I'm so sorry, Miss Su. Let me take you to your room to change your clothes. There's a dryer there."
"Okay." Su Xi got up and left with Wen Ziyi.
Su Xi hadn't returned for a long time, and Ye Qingqian became restless. She searched the banquet hall and grabbed Wen Ziyi, "Where's Su Xi? Where did you take her?"
The woman's eyes widened, looking confused. "I don't know. I took her to her room and left. She's an adult; I couldn't just watch her change clothes and then bring her to you, could I?"
Ye Qingqian narrowed her eyes and grabbed Wen Ziyi by the collar. The latter was shocked, truly not expecting this woman to be so fierce, resorting to violence without a word.
"Sister, let go quickly, this is not a place to cause trouble." Xia Wanqing's gentle and well-mannered demeanor made Ye Qingqian appear even more valiant.
The woman released Wen Ziyi as expected, then turned around and grabbed Xia Wanqing, lifting her off the ground. Xia Wanqing was petite.
"Tell me, were you involved too?"
"I didn't. What are you saying, sister? I really don't understand." Xia Wanqing's eyelashes trembled and hot tears rolled down her cheeks.
Her pitiful appearance drew unfriendly glances from many men.
“Miss, I know where Su Xi is. But I need to tell President Feng.” Lan Xing pushed through the crowd and approached, speaking with righteous indignation.
Ye Qingqian sized Lan Xing up and down, then coldly snorted and shoved Xia Wanqing away. The latter let out a soft moan and collapsed into the arms of the onlookers.
Meeting Ye Qingqian's icy, chilling gaze, Lan Xing inwardly cried out in alarm. The moment she turned, the woman grabbed her by the chest and dragged her directly in front of Feng Jinchen.
The man was chatting and laughing with Bai Luwei when he saw a large group of people approaching, and he frowned slightly.
Seeing that Ye Qingqian was leading the group and was holding a woman in her hand, the man's handsome face was full of bewilderment.
Lan Xing was nearly thrown to her knees, her face filled with grievance and panic, but inwardly she was quite pleased with herself. Ye Qingqian's outburst would only attract more onlookers, which was exactly what they wanted.
"What's up?"
Lan Xing hesitated, looking like she was about to speak, but finally mustered up her courage and said, "President Feng... I want to report Su Xi for being indecent and damaging the company's image. My friend saw her hugging and cuddling with a man as they sneaked into a room. They were probably doing something illicit."
A sense of danger washed over them, and without a word, the man kicked the woman in the chest.
"Ah—" Lan Xing never expected Feng Jinchen to be so angry. She screamed and fell to the ground, her skirt being lifted up.
Wen Ziyi was frightened by the enraged man and immediately backed down.
"Wen Ziyi, didn't you see it? Tell me." Lan Xing struggled to her feet, glaring at the woman shrinking into the crowd, her eyes filled with threat.
Wen Ziyi could only nod reluctantly, "Yes, President Feng, I saw it."
"Impossible, Su Xi isn't that kind of person." Feng Jinchen completely disbelieved it. If there weren't so many people present, he would have crippled these women who were spouting nonsense.
"President Feng, you can know a person's face but not their heart. Otherwise, how could someone have confessed their love to Su Xi with flowers on her first day of work? Moreover, I saw with my own eyes that she had aphrodisiacs in her bag, so she must have brought them with her today as well."
"Yes, Mr. Feng, there are many outstanding men here today. It seems that Su Xi has already found her target and made her move."
Wen Ziyi nodded, "I did see Su Xi very proactively pull a reluctant man into the room. That man seemed to be the third young master of the Xiao family."
Seeing that these people were speaking so eloquently, even mentioning their names, Feng Jinchen's handsome face showed a hint of wavering, but more than that, it looked ugly.
He swept his cold gaze across the crowd, "Has anyone seen Su Xi or Young Master Xiao?"
Everyone shook their heads. The man's heart sank further, and his fingers unconsciously clenched.
Ye Qingqian's eyes flickered, as if she had just realized the seriousness of the problem. "Xixi must have gone back because of something. She just told me that she felt a little dizzy, so she must have gone back to rest. Everyone, please leave."
The woman's words only fueled Feng Jinchen's suspicions.
"Sister, you were just frantically searching for Su Xi, why have you suddenly stopped?" Xia Wanqing asked with concern, her heart pounding with excitement.
Ye Qingqian glared at her but didn't say anything.
Xia Wanqing then looked at Feng Jinchen, pursed her lips, and said, "How could Miss Su possibly carry that kind of medicine with her? You are not allowed to gossip and ruin her reputation."
"Mr. Feng, I did see a little strawberry juice left over when Miss Su left the banquet. I have a friend who knows medicine who was there; should we have him test it to clear Miss Su's name?"
Feng Jinchen's gaze was deep, and he finally uttered only one word, "Examine."
Soon, the glass of strawberry juice was brought over, and sure enough, it contained ingredients that would stir emotions and enhance the mood.
Feng Jinchen's face turned completely ugly. "Which room did they go to?"
A moment later, a large group of people blocked the door of a room. The originally spacious corridor was packed with men and women gossiping about the gossip.
Ye Qingqian was the first to stand in front of the door, "President Feng, what do you mean by this? Do you also think Su Xi is inside? I can guarantee that Su Xi is definitely not inside."
"If it's not Su Xi, then find her! Call her and see if she answers!" Lan Xing glared at Ye Qingqian.
Her chest was still burning with pain, and this matter absolutely could not be left unresolved.
Ye Qingqian choked, looking only at Feng Jinchen, "President Feng, aren't you going to say something? Su Xi is your..."
"What does Su Xi have to do with me?" Feng Jinchen's eyes were filled with a strong warning. "Don't talk nonsense if you don't want the Ye family to go bankrupt."
The man clenched his fist. "Break down the door!"
If it really is Su Xi inside, he will definitely imprison her and never give her another chance to show her face in public.
The door was flung open in an instant, and Feng Jinchen was the first to rush in.
Seeing clothes scattered all over the floor, and bras even flying onto the LCD TV, it seemed that Su Xi also had one of those.
The man was instantly struck dumb, his eyes turning bloodshot, and he wanted nothing more than to raze the entire building to the ground.
