Chapter 128 Is he exceptionally strong?
Since the last time he kicked down the door in a blunder, Feng Jinchen dared not cause any more damage to the old house. He immediately had someone call the butler and bring him the key.
When he drove there, he didn't see Su Xi. She was already on her way when he called her and should have arrived long ago.
He asked the maid, who said she saw a man and a woman enter the room, and they looked a lot like his uncle and Su Xi.
After discovering the door was locked from the inside, he knew he had been cheated on again.
Having learned his lesson from last time, he immediately ordered the servants to stand guard outside the window, while he himself blocked the doorway, ensuring that not even a fly could escape.
The housekeeper took out the key and opened the door. Feng Jinchen rushed in first with a gloomy face, searching the balcony, the bathroom, and the bedroom, but there was no one there.
He even opened the cabinets and is now lying on the floor looking under the bed.
The butler's lips twitched. "Young master, the wind may have closed and locked the door."
The servant who had spoken earlier changed her tune, saying, "Young master, I might have been mistaken. The old house is currently under renovation, and they were probably staff members who came to draw up the blueprints."
Feng Jinchen's face was grim. Trusting his intuition, he immediately took out his phone and called Su Xi.
Su Xi and Feng Jue were currently in the old man's study, having come through the tunnel. Seeing her phone light up, Su Xi pursed her lips. "Uncle, let's search another day."
"No way, we're getting a divorce tomorrow. Do you think you'll still have a chance to come to the old house? Search it now."
Feng Juejun's face was expressionless, but his fingers unconsciously twirled between his fingers.
Su Xi was hot and cold towards him, and he wasn't sure if she had become suspicious of that matter, so he simply let her search thoroughly, and whether she could find anything or not was up to fate.
Moreover, there's no time like the present. If Su Xi suddenly decides to come and search and gets caught, he might not be able to protect her.
Su Xi looked troubled, "But..."
Seeing Feng Jinchen's call, Feng Jue didn't care at all. "Don't you trust my abilities? It's still early for dinner. I'll take you away from another place later. If he asks, just say you didn't hear anything and make up an excuse. If that doesn't work, I'm here for you."
"Okay." Su Xi had no more worries, and now that Feng Jue had given her a heads-up, she boldly began searching.
The old man's study was small. After a full half hour, Su Xi had searched every nook and cranny but hadn't found what she was looking for, and she was instantly disappointed.
Feng Jue slowly loosened his clenched fist, his palm already damp with sweat.
"Feeling reassured now? Will you come again?"
Su Xi shook her head, "I'm not coming."
Feng Jue silently put away Su Xi's misplaced items, then led her away through the tunnel. They emerged into the back garden.
"Remember, you are not allowed to cut off contact with me until you have repaid my debt of gratitude." Feng Jue left these words, leaving no room for argument, and headed in another direction.
As the man's tall figure walked further and further away, Su Xi remained standing in place.
Her thoughts were pulled back from her reverie by the vibration of her phone; it was a call from Feng Jinchen.
Su Xi swiped to answer the call.
"Su Xi, are you with your uncle? It's been so long, shouldn't it be over by now?"
A sarcastic voice came from behind her. Without even looking, Su Xi could imagine the man's frantic and insane appearance, his teeth clenched.
"Are you really hungry? There's only one day left and you're already so impatient? Su Xi, is your younger brother particularly energetic? Hmm? Ah? It's one thing for others, but he's my uncle, my uncle!"
This is incest! You've completely disgraced the Feng and Su families. If Grandma found out, she'd be furious! Do you understand? I never imagined you were such a shameless woman. I was blind!
By the end, the man was almost hysterical, practically shouting, which made Su Xi's eardrums ache and jolted her out of her inner turmoil.
Not only what Feng Jinchen mentioned, but she was also pregnant. This child should call Feng Jue "Second Grandfather," a thought that filled her with despair.
"Feng Jinchen, I've said it before, I'll catch them in the act. I have absolutely no relationship with him, not before, not now, and never will. Besides, we're getting a divorce tomorrow, what's the point of your paranoia?"
"Of course it's interesting. As long as we're not divorced, you're my woman, Feng Jinchen's woman, and I have the right to interfere."
"Take it or leave it. If you're so capable, go ask your uncle."
"Of course I'll ask him. Let me ask you first, why didn't you answer my calls?"
"My phone was out of battery, I just plugged it in."
“Su Xi,” Feng Jinchen took a deep breath, “Are you really going to treat me like a fool? Your affair with your uncle is obvious, a hundred or a thousand times more obvious than my affair with Wu Yaoyao. What are you still pretending for?”
I only cheated physically, but you betrayed me both physically and emotionally; you're the one who's unfaithful in the marriage. My brother-in-law is a despised third party.
Even if Wu Yaoyao had a thousand faults, at least she hadn't betrayed him. Su Xi, on the other hand, had utterly disappointed him.
“I know he’s right next to you, let him answer the phone.”
He's not with me.
Feng Jinchen's handsome face instantly contorted into a ferocious expression. Just as he was about to say something, he caught sight of a familiar figure out of the corner of his eye.
Turning his head to look, the man's eyes widened instantly.
“Nephew, I am very capable, but I don’t have the ability to be in two places at once.”
What are you doing here?
"Otherwise what?" Feng Jue sat casually on the sofa, his eyes indifferent.
"Where did you go just now? The servants couldn't find you."
"You have to worry about my whereabouts? I'm afraid you can't handle that kind of trouble."
Feng Jinchen's expression tightened, and he said into the phone, "Su Xi, I don't care where you are, come to the living room right now."
Su Xi pushed open the living room door and saw Feng Jue sitting on the leather sofa, looking like he could be filmed in every frame.
Their eyes met in mid-air, they exchanged glances, and then tacitly looked away.
Feng Jinchen, who was standing to the side, turned pale and walked straight over to pull Su Xi away.
Su Xi quickly dodged, saying, "My arm is injured, don't touch it."
Feng Jinchen then remembered that Su Xi had been scratched by Huang Sifeng. The sharpness in his eyes instantly faded by half, and he ordered the servant to get iodine swabs.
Feng Jinchen pulled Su Xi to sit on the sofa opposite Feng Jue, forcefully applying iodine to her face, his eyes full of provocation as he looked at her.
"I'll do it myself," Su Xi said, her tone less than friendly.
Feng Jinchen's face fell. "Su Xi, look at me! Look at what's on my face!"
Su Xi glanced at him but didn't say anything.
"I'm glowing with green light, all thanks to you. Now it's just the three of us, and you two are still acting, aren't you? Walking the dog?"
If you know the truth, don't pretend. The time you disappeared was when you were with him. He took advantage of you, but he tried everything to cover it up, never intending to give you a public identity.
"At least I'll give you a marriage certificate. You're an adult now, and you should be able to figure out who's truly good to you."
As they were arguing, the door opened and Luo Anya walked in.
Seeing Feng Jinchen and Su Xi sitting together "affectionately" applying medicine, the woman's eyes flashed with envy. She pursed her lips and glanced at Feng Jue with her starry eyes.
"You've come at the right time. Keep a close eye on your man and don't let him covet other men's wives."
Upon hearing this, Luo Anya paused for a moment, then subconsciously looked at Feng Jue with a questioning gaze, her eyes filled with confusion.
She then noticed the love triangle between the three people, and a hint of suspicion arose in her eyes, her pupils trembling involuntarily.
Her red lips parted slightly, as if she were about to say something, when a series of footsteps suddenly rang out.
Several servants rushed over in a panic.
"Something terrible has happened!"
