Chapter 30 Sleeping in someone's arms, doing nothing.
He felt relieved when he saw Su Xi go upstairs and the lights in the room come on, but then a wave of loneliness and sorrow washed over him.
In the past, when he watched her leave like this, the girl would always turn back and smile at him. A smile that could topple cities, a smile that could topple kingdoms, and a smile that could captivate his heart.
But now his eyes were sore from looking at her, and Su Xi didn't even turn around. Her back was cold and indifferent, as if the two of them were from two different worlds.
It gave him a surreal feeling, as if he had stepped into thin air, and a sense of anxiety and uncertainty welled up deep in his heart.
He suddenly recalled the sweet times they had shared, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously curved into a beautiful smile.
Especially when they were merging, Su Xi obviously had no experience, but in order to please him, she still tried her best to cooperate and sway gently under him.
He wondered when such a sweet scene would reappear. He believed that day would come.
The next day, as soon as Su Xi arrived at the dispatch department, Shen Congxuan came over.
"Su Xi, your hand is injured. I'd like to hear your opinion on whether you'd like to switch to a less demanding department?"
Su Xi shook her head, "No need, manager." She came here to work so that she could go on a business trip abroad in three months, so naturally she wouldn't change departments.
Wu Qingluan pouted, "Su Xi, with your hand injured, the project is completely behind schedule. We need to hire another person; aren't you just freeloading?"
"I have no problem using my left hand."
Wu Qingluan laughed upon hearing this, "Do you want to listen to what you're actually saying?"
Seeing Su Xi's calm and confident expression, Shen Congxuan pointed to the computer next to him, "Here, give it a try."
Su Xi sat down, her left hand moving across the keyboard like a fish, quickly typing out lines of code with astonishing speed.
Wu Qingluan stared in shock, her mouth agape.
"Team Leader Wu said we won't support freeloaders. Ji Feifei, why don't you give it a try?"
Ji Feifei, who had been called out, walked over with a troubled expression.
Su Xi then noticed that Ji Feifei's right hand was also bandaged, with traces of blood seeping out, clearly much more serious than her injury. A hint of surprise flashed across her eyes.
Ji Feifei sat at the computer, extended her left hand, and, to everyone's astonishment, performed a Shaolin Temple one-finger flick. She could only use one finger to type on the keyboard, otherwise she would easily make a mistake and have to start over.
In comparison, the quality of Su Xi's previous actions is still increasing.
"Ji Feifei, you must complete your daily work, otherwise you can stop staying in the overseas dispatch department."
"Understood, Manager." Ji Feifei nodded, her face flushed. Looks like she'll have to prepare for unpaid overtime. The overseas assignment department offers the highest pay and the most career advancement; she has no intention of going to any other department.
Thinking about it, she glared at Su Xi with disgust. It was all because of this woman.
"Also, I don't want to hear any more nonsense in the overseas dispatch department." Giving Wu Qingluan a warning look, Shen Congxuan turned and left.
The overseas assignment department has an important project, and these employees are already proficient, so they can't be easily replaced. Otherwise, given his temperament, he would have fired those two troublemakers long ago.
"Su Xi, did you do this to my hands? How could you be so vicious?"
Su Xi looked on with a bewildered amusement. "Ji Feifei, are you still asleep? You hurt your hand, not your brain. Please think carefully before you speak."
"You!" Ji Feifei gasped in anger, and the thought of those people's ruthlessness made her shudder again. She shoved Su Xi aside and walked away.
"Sister Wu, do you think Su Xi has someone backing her?"
"It must be just a coincidence. She doesn't have that much ability."
"Yes, are we just going to let this go like this? I really can't swallow this." Ji Feifei hated Su Xi to the core. Both of them had their right hands injured, even if it was a coincidence, it was still Su Xi's fault.
"Of course not, this matter needs to be considered carefully. Those who do evil will pay the price sooner or later."
"That's good." Ji Feifei left satisfied.
After a busy morning, Su Xi stood up to go to the cafeteria when she received a call from Feng Jinchen, "Xi Xi, I'm downstairs at your company. I'll take you to eat."
"No need, the company has a cafeteria. I'd like to grab a quick bite and then take a lunch break. Going out to eat would be too much of a waste of time."
"Xixi, you're injured right now, how can you just eat something simple? I've already had some food prepared, you can eat as soon as you arrive, it won't take long." Hearing Su Xi's hesitation, the man's voice, tinged with a hint of threat, followed, "If you don't come down, will I come up to get you?"
Su Xi had no choice but to go downstairs, only to find out when she got there that it was Feng Jinchen's nanny van.
The nanny van was parked by a scenic lake, and the nanny got out after preparing the meal. There were only the two of them in the RV.
The food on the table was steaming and fragrant, all of which Su Xi liked. If you ignored the bed next to it, which exuded an ambiguous atmosphere, it wasn't a bad spot.
"Eat up. It's been so long since we've had a quiet meal like this."
Su Xi took the chopsticks the man handed her, and while looking out the window at the scenery, she ate slowly and carefully.
He put down his chopsticks and said, "I'm going back."
The man gently pulled her wrist. "Xixi, you'll just be sleeping at your desk anyway when you go back. Why don't you sleep in this RV?"
As the man spoke, he pressed the remote control, and all the windows slowly closed, plunging the room into darkness, with only a small orange-yellow palace lantern emitting a soft, enchanting light.
Before Su Xi could react, the man pulled her into his arms, rested his chin on her shoulder, and hugged her very tightly.
Hearing the man's heavy breathing beside her, Su Xi's alarm bells went off, and she asked coldly, "What do you want to do?"
"Fuck you." The man teased her in a low, mellow voice, his warm breath brushing against her ear.
Su Xi shuddered as her ears tickled, pushed the man away, and glared at him coldly.
Feng Jinchen was hurt. "Okay, I was just kidding. My wife won't let me touch her, and I can't force her. It's really pathetic."
He chuckled self-deprecatingly, sat on the soft bed, and naturally pulled Su Xi over to sit on his lap.
Su Xi looked at the handsome face of the man so close to her, and could clearly see a faint beauty mark at the corner of his eye.
Feng Jinchen has always had a fiery temper, but the beauty mark at the corner of his eye makes him look much gentler and more affectionate. His handsome face also adds a layer of warmth and approachability to him, making it easy for people to misjudge his personality.
Su Xi knew his true nature, and she didn't want to provoke him, so she obediently sat on the man's lap. As long as he didn't go too far, she wouldn't resist.
Otherwise, domestic violence will be like infidelity; once it happens, it will happen countless times.
Seeing that the woman in his arms had calmed down considerably, Feng Jinchen buried his face deep in her chest. After a while, he raised his head and asked in a hoarse voice, "Is it alright?"
Su Xi's face was so cold it could drip ice, and she said, word by word, "No."
Feng Jinchen looked helplessly at Su Xi, like a homeless puppy that had been abandoned, pleading and accusing her.
Su Xilang's heart is as hard as iron.
Finally, Feng Jinchen gave in and let out a long sigh, "Fine, I respect your decision. Let's take a nap together here at noon. I'll hold you, and we won't do anything."
