Chapter 206 The Child Is Gone
Meanwhile, Gu Chong drove back to the villa.
In the coffee shop, no sooner had Su Xi left than he suddenly remembered a detail: he remembered that the person had a noticeable black mole on his right earlobe.
But Su Zian did not.
Therefore, it is highly likely that someone impersonated Su Zi'an to commit arson and frame him.
However, he kept replaying the scene of Su Xi being pulled into Feng Jue's arms in his mind.
To avoid causing negative rumors about Su Xi, he drove away immediately. Thinking about it now, Feng Jue's expression was cold and stern; he seemed more like a human trafficker than Su Xi. Su Xi was also unwilling; she was completely forced into it.
Should he have taken Su Xi back then?
If a fight broke out in the street, there would only be more online attacks against Su Xi. While waiting at the red light, he casually browsed the trending topics and saw that Feng Jue had officially announced Su Xi as his woman.
The man frowned. Feng Jue was the president of Tianjue; he believed Feng Jue must have his reasons for doing this. As for those extreme haters, Feng Jue would definitely send people to protect Su Xi.
Back at the villa, Gu Chong couldn't help but browse the trending topics again, and sure enough, the comments under Feng Jue's official announcement were all cursing Su Xi.
They all wanted her dead, not to bring harm to the unattainable beauty.
Gu Chong shook his head. "Want to date? The kind where you get attacked and killed by the entire internet."
Regardless, Su Xi is still married. He really couldn't figure out what Feng Jue was up to.
Looking at the time, Gu Chong hesitated before picking up his phone, intending to send a message to Su Xi to tell her about the mole. If she was still awake, she would naturally call back.
I received a friend request from a stranger as soon as I turned on my phone.
Gu Chong initially intended to delete it directly, but upon seeing the comment, his pupils contracted.
"Approve it, or you'll be collecting Su Xi's corpse."
Gu Chong added him as a friend, asking, "Who are you?"
"Don't worry about who I am, the arsonist is Su Zi'an! If you dare to talk nonsense, this day next year will be the anniversary of Su Xi's death."
"You dare!"
"You can give it a try."
Gu Chong's breath hitched, and his fingers gripping the phone turned pale. Looking at the chat window with the username "Abyss" and a black profile picture, he typed with difficulty, "Okay, I promise you."
It's better to believe it's true than not to. He couldn't risk Su Xi's safety.
The ride-hailing service took Su Xi directly downstairs.
Seeing that no one was lying in wait, Su Xi got out of the car. Just as she reached the corner on the third floor, a woman wearing a hat and mask suddenly leaned out and then poured a basin of unidentified liquid over her.
Su Xi turned around, covered her head, and squatted down. The scalding liquid fell down, and a piercing pain shot through her back.
Before she could react, a violent push sent her tumbling down the stairs.
Su Xi clutched her stomach, her head hitting the steps. A violent wave of dizziness washed over her, and she blacked out.
The driver, who was waiting downstairs to take Su Xi to the hotel, rushed upstairs upon hearing the commotion. He was shocked to see Su Xi unconscious and immediately took her to the hospital.
Upon receiving the news, Liu Cheng was devastated, but he still forced himself to call Feng Jue, "Mr. Feng... Miss Su... something has happened to her."
"What do you mean something happened?" The man's voice trembled slightly, like that of a demon from hell. "What exactly happened to her?"
"Miss Su was splashed with boiling water and pushed down the stairs. She fainted... but she should be awake now, in the building across the street."
Feng Jue took a deep breath, pulled out the IV tube, and walked out. "Tell me, tell me everything."
"A-Jue, where are you going?"
"Mom, something happened to Su Xi, I have to go see her."
Meeting her son's bloodthirsty, crimson gaze, the old woman knew she couldn't stop him. She opened her mouth, but before she could think of what to say, the man had already walked away.
"Miss Su returned to her apartment and was ambushed at the stairwell. Because the bodyguards had just been replaced and were not yet in place, they arrived too late. By the time they got there, Su Xi had already been injured. However, the perpetrator was caught on the spot."
"That woman is a troll who jumps around online cursing Su Xi. As for whether she has someone behind her, we don't know yet."
"Investigate! A mere internet troll wouldn't dare to do this. Check her bank statements, get them for me."
"yes."
Having found Su Xi's hospital room, Feng Jue pushed open the door with trembling hands.
The woman was sitting hunched over on the bed, staring blankly into the empty space in front of her, her face ashen white.
She was completely unaware that Feng Jue had come to her bedside.
"Xiao...Xiao Xi."
Upon hearing the man's voice, Su Xi turned around abruptly and saw that it was Feng Jue. She immediately raised her hand and slapped the man hard across the face.
Snap!
Feng Jue did not dodge and was knocked to one side by the blow.
Su Xi was still not satisfied, and with almost all her strength, she slapped him hard again.
Snap!
The man's cheeks immediately turned bright red, and a bright red handprint quickly appeared.
"Feng Jue, you knew that doing that in public would bring me hatred, so why did you insist on doing it? Why?"
"I'm sorry, it's all my fault. You'll understand why I did this someday."
"I'm sorry? What good is being sorry?" The excruciating pain almost suffocated Su Xi. When she woke up, Ye Qingqian told her that the baby was gone. Gone!
Su Xi was utterly despondent, wishing she could die immediately and tear Feng Jue's face apart. Now, facing that face again, she felt nothing but disgust and hatred.
"Get out, I don't want to see you again."
"Xiaoxi, I won't leave. Where exactly are you hurt? Let me see." Feng Jue stepped forward, trying to take the woman's hand.
"If you don't leave, I'll beat you until you do!"
Feng Jue looked at her, "Go ahead and hit me!"
Su Xi raised her hand and slapped the man hard across the face again, causing his cheek to swell up.
Just as Su Xi was about to slap him again, a sudden voice rang out, "Su Xi, are you crazy?"
Seeing that it was an old lady, Su Xi's eyes showed no emotion whatsoever, as still as a stagnant pool. "Tell your son to get out, or either he dies or I die."
Feng Jue's pupils contracted, and his face turned deathly pale.
"A-Jue, let Su Xi have some peace and quiet. You're not fully recovered yet. Both of you need to rest. We can talk about it tomorrow."
It was almost midnight. Feng Jue wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his finger, smiled at Su Xi, and said, "Then you should get some rest. I'll remove the trending topic. No one who hurt you will get away with it. I'm sorry."
"You're only thinking about removing the trending topic now? Too late!" Su Xi grabbed a water glass from the table and smashed it against the man. "Get out!"
The scalding hot water poured over the man's body and face, the tearing pain in his skin making his heart ache even more. Su Xi, being doused with a large basin of boiling water, must have been in even more pain.
Knowing that Su Xi didn't want to see him, the man said nothing more and turned to leave.
The old lady glanced at Su Xi, a hint of murderous intent flashing in her eyes.
This woman, who has no blood relation to her and is good for nothing but causing trouble, was someone she was truly blinded by greed to have spoiled like her own granddaughter.
How dare she hit Feng Jue? How could she dare?
If she had another chance, she would rather die than agree to let Su Xi into the family!
Seeing the two leave, Ye Qingqian quietly walked in. She hadn't expected Su Xi to be so emotionally devastated after losing her child.
Did she do something wrong?
