Chapter 166 The child is not Feng Jinchen's
Su Xi looked at the restless man and gave a self-deprecating laugh. "You think I forced her to drink? Do you believe me if I said she drank it on her own initiative and I couldn't stop her?"
"She'll die from drinking, why did she drink?" The implication was that it was Su Xi's fault, whether intentional or unintentional.
Seeing the woman's pale face, Feng Jue rubbed his temples, sighed, and softened his tone, "I'm sorry, this is a matter of life and death, I can't stay calm."
"Xiaoxi, it was wrong of me to drink too much and fall into her arms that day. I was afraid you would be angry and overthink things, so I agreed to lie to you with her to reassure you and not have any doubts. She meant well, but she never expected..."
"But I never imagined that in order to verify that you two really had no relationship, I forced her, who was allergic to alcohol, to drink, deliberately causing her innocent and naive life to be lost? Am I a vicious and scheming bad woman?"
Feng Jue looked at the woman in disbelief. "Xiao Xi, you know perfectly well that I wouldn't think that way. Besides, Luo Anya is still lying in the emergency room right now. Shouldn't we be discussing how to save her life as much as possible?"
“I still consider her my sister. If something really happens to her, I won’t be able to forgive myself. And if something happens to her because of you, the Luo family won’t let you off the hook either. I might not be able to protect you then, and I’m worried about you.”
Su Xi wanted to say that Feng Jue had brought up the topic first, but she knew very well that now was not the time to argue about it.
Luo Anya's life is more important.
Su Xi stopped talking and sat down on a chair to the side, praying that Luo Anya would be alright.
Soon, Mr. and Mrs. Luo rushed over in a panic.
Upon learning that she had been forced to drink alcohol at a dinner party with Su Xi, Luo's mother was furious. "You're her friend, don't you know she's allergic to alcohol? This is clearly murder! If anything happens to my daughter, I don't want to live anymore, I'll kill you."
The elegant woman was suddenly struck by a major blow, as if she had aged more than ten years in an instant, and rushed towards Su Xi without any regard for anything else.
It was as if they wanted to tear her to pieces.
Luo's father couldn't stop him at all.
Su Xi's face turned pale instantly. It was too late to dodge. Feng Jue reacted quickly and grabbed the woman, saying, "Aunt Luo, this was my fault. It has nothing to do with her."
Luo Ma was furious that she hadn't hit anyone, and the elegance and gentleness in her gaze towards Feng Jue were gone.
If the man in front of her wasn't Feng Jue, the Luo family's most satisfactory son-in-law to date, she would have loved to slap him across the face.
"Feng Jue, what is your relationship with this woman? I clearly asked the driver, and it was this woman who did this. An Ya is still in critical condition, yet you're protecting the person who harmed her. Do you have no heart at all?"
Seeing Feng Jue being targeted, Su Xi stood up and clenched her fingers. "Auntie, please calm down."
"How can I stay calm? You're really talking without any sense of the situation. Who exactly are you? Feng Jue and Anya are a couple favored by both families. I think you're just a shameless third party. You killed Anya so you could become the mistress and take her place, right? You're so cruel and vicious. I'm calling the police."
As she spoke, Luo's mother was about to dial the police.
Just then, a doctor came out, and several people quickly surrounded him.
"Doctor, how is my daughter?"
"The patient is severely intoxicated by alcohol and has not yet woken up. If he doesn't wake up by tomorrow, I'm afraid... I'm afraid he will be brain dead."
"What?"
Luo's mother suddenly felt dizzy and fell backward, but Luo's father quickly caught her.
Soon, the woman slowly woke up and glared at Su Xi. Her ferocious gaze made Su Xi's heart tremble involuntarily.
Before she could react, a loud slap landed on Su Xi's face.
The woman tried to hit him again, but Feng Jue grabbed her and threw her away violently.
Looking at the man's cold and ruthless face, Luo Ma's vision went black again, her face filled with disbelief.
Her future son-in-law dared to hit her, all for the sake of a mistress. For the sake of a mistress who killed her daughter.
Thinking of her poor daughter who was completely devoted to this ungrateful man, Luo Ma was utterly terrified and, without thinking, raised her hand and slapped the man across the face.
Mr. Luo was startled and quickly restrained the woman's hands. "Are you crazy?"
"I'm insane! I've lost my daughter, I don't want to live anymore, let's all die together!"
The woman became hysterical, suddenly couldn't catch her breath, and completely fainted.
With his daughter and wife's fates hanging in the balance, Luo's father nearly collapsed. He didn't even manage to pick up his wife for a moment.
Feng Jue bent down and picked up Luo Ma, then quickly went to find the doctor.
A murderous gaze fell upon her face, and the moment Su Xi and Luo's father locked eyes, it felt as if they were being skinned alive.
She moved her lips, wanting to explain, but the man had already quickly left.
Mrs. Luo was alright, just a bit overwhelmed with anger. Mr. Luo, relieved, looked at Feng Jue sternly, "Who exactly is that woman?"
I will take responsibility for this.
"Of course, your connections are involved. I can find out who that woman is even if you don't tell me."
“I’m her uncle. You can come to me with this matter.”
"What?!" Father Luo's eyes widened in disbelief. Feng Jue was actually with his niece-in-law…
"I never imagined that the dignified president of Tianjue would be all show and no substance. How could you do this to my daughter?"
"I think Uncle Luo has misunderstood. Anya and I don't have that kind of relationship."
Mr. Luo was so angry he almost fell backward. "Fine, fine, you won't admit it. I won't talk to you about this, I'll talk to your father. You're not welcome here, please leave."
"I will hire the best doctors to treat Anya," Feng Jue said before turning and leaving.
Upon seeing Feng Jue return, Su Xi quickly stood up, at a loss for what to do.
"Let's go. I'll cover for you. You just need to insist that you didn't force her to drink."
Su Xi pursed her lips. The man still didn't believe her, which caused her a moment of heartache. But she said nothing.
After dropping Su Xi off at her apartment, Feng Jue said calmly, "They're taking us to the old mansion for dinner tonight. It's probably a trap. You don't need to do anything. Just stay behind me. I won't let go of your hand."
Even if I caused Luo Anya's death?
"right!"
Su Xi didn't know whether to be happy or sad.
Just as she got upstairs, Su Xi received another phone call. After quickly tidying up, Su Xi took a taxi straight to her destination.
On the other hand, Wu Yaoyao knew that Su Xi would completely lose Feng Jue as her backer at the banquet that night, and that crushing her would be as easy as crushing an ant.
Just as I was feeling smug, my phone rang. It was an unfamiliar number.
Wu Yaoyao smiled slightly. Perhaps it was the Mo family looking for her. She answered the phone directly, deliberately suppressing her excitement, "Hello, who is this?"
The male voice on the other end was unfamiliar and gentlemanly, yet it exuded an innate air of nobility.
"You don't need to know who I am, but I know that the child in your belly is not Feng Jinchen's."
Miss Wu, what era are we living in? You're still trying to pull off a substitution trick? Isn't that a bit too low-class?
Wu Yaoyao was so frightened that she almost dropped her phone. Her face turned deathly pale in an instant, and she asked, her voice trembling with fear, "Who exactly are you?"
