Chapter 239 I've Lost My Temper
"Su Xi, what are you? How dare you treat me like this? You're utterly wicked and heartless! You're the one who framed me. My earring is indeed missing, but you're the one who stole it. You're the one trying to harm me."
"I wouldn't stoop to scheming and maliciously framing others; I'm just asking you to keep your promise. Don't worry, I'll allow you to keep your dignity intact; I'm more afraid of getting a sty."
"How dare you! Su Xi, you framed me. My earring was clearly in your bag, where did you put it? You're a thief! If you dare to lay a finger on me, the Shen family and the Si family will never forgive you!"
"Hey, the Si family has absolutely nothing to do with you. Even if you were a dog in the Si family, you wouldn't be related to them at all."
Shen Feier's face paled, like a resentful woman abandoned in her secluded chamber. "Beicheng, how could you treat me like this? I'm your woman. You don't side with me, but with this mistress. How can you face me like this?"
Feng Jinchen, are you even a man? Your woman is flirting with other women, don't you care?
Si Beichen was utterly speechless. She was his fiancée before, and now she's his woman. Is he some kind of asexual procreation machine?
"Shen Feier, you should be glad I don't hit women. No, it's just too damn infuriating. You'll be the first one, the first and the last."
The moment the words left his mouth, Si Beichen grabbed Shen Feier's hair and shook it left and right, then up and down, like pulling a radish.
While swaying, he muttered to himself, "I'll teach you to talk, I'll teach you to be shameless, I'll teach you to be like a leech, I've had enough..."
Shen Feier's meticulously styled seaweed-like hair instantly turned into a mess of tangled weeds.
"Stop! Stop it! Are you crazy?"
"Shen Feier, I'm not going to hold back today. I'm going to stick with you. Tell me, what is our relationship? If you don't tell the truth, I'll keep shaking you until your head falls off."
"You're my man, ah, my head...you...you're my boyfriend, ahh, my hair...you're my friend, is that alright? Ahhh, it hurts, stop it..."
Si Beichen was still pulling up radishes, seemingly having discovered a new continent, tireless, his handsome face full of excitement and smiles. His smile was harder to suppress than AK's.
In the end, Shen Feier was truly afraid of this man and could only say, "I have nothing to do with you. The engagement was indeed a joke from our elders. We were still in kindergarten then, and your mother promised me that you would marry me when I grew up. It was because I liked you so much that I kept holding onto this joke. I was wrong, I won't do it again, I really won't..."
Si Beichen seemed a little unsatisfied. "Shen Feier, where's your backbone? You surrendered so quickly. What a spoilsport. Say something!"
"I'm not saying anything more, I really am not saying anything more."
The man could only reluctantly loosen his grip on the woman's long hair.
Shen Feier's hair was a complete mess, making her look utterly unattractive.
The room was filled with bursts of laughter.
"Miss Su, I beg you, I was wrong, can I go now, please... sob sob..."
Su Xi glanced at Feng Jue and said coldly, "Miss Chen, there's no point in pretending to be crazy. You should have known this day would come when you first had the evil intention to frame me."
"Either you take it off yourself, or you have your bodyguard help you. The choice is yours."
Su Xi glanced at the time. "I have limited patience. You only have three minutes."
With her hair in a mess, Shen Feier looked like a resentful woman in a cold palace. "We're both women, how could you be so cruel? If you dare touch me, you'll die a horrible death."
"Excessive? I was merely giving him a taste of his own medicine. What? You're allowed to harm others but not others to retaliate? What kind of logic is that? You have two minutes left."
"Don't make a big deal out of nothing. I don't believe you dare to do anything to me. Feng Jinchen, aren't you going to keep an eye on your woman?"
Feng Jinchen didn't want to escalate the situation. His uncle wasn't afraid to go against the Shen Group, but he was in a bit of a bind. Besides, doing business is all about making money amicably.
He was about to speak to mediate when he heard Shen Feier say this in a commanding tone.
This only fueled his temper. "The Shen family is indeed not to be trifled with, but the Feng family is no pushover either. It's just a matter of give and take; you brought this on yourself."
"You! You'll regret this." Shen Feier glared fiercely at Feng Jinchen, then her gaze shifted to Si Beichen.
Before she could speak, Si Beichen flicked his fingers, his eyes burning brightly.
Shen Feier felt a chill run down her spine and quickly looked away, her gaze shifting to the noble, godlike man.
Feng Juejun's face was expressionless, and even his posture was somewhat lazy and casual, yet he exuded endless danger and oppression. Shen Feier trembled her lips and dared not speak.
Finally, he looked at Su Xi and said, "Miss Su, it's easier to resolve a feud than to create one. I admit I was wrong, I apologize, I'm sorry. Is that enough? Why don't you tell them to let me go?"
There was absolutely no sincerity in their apology.
But Shen Feier felt she had been given a way out, though she felt extremely humiliated. She didn't believe they would dare strip her naked, but being pinned down by bodyguards like this was a great disgrace. She just wanted to leave as soon as possible.
Su Xi is the first person who dared to make her apologize, and she won't let her get away with it.
Su Xi curled her lips into a smile. "Miss Chen, it seems your hearing isn't very good. You have half a minute left."
"You dare!" For the first time, Shen Feier felt uncertain. She looked at Feng Jue and pleaded, "President Feng, please let me go. I'll do anything you ask."
The man remained unmoved.
Shen Feier gritted her teeth, "Shen's Group has a project to put out to tender recently. I can arrange for Father to cooperate directly with Tianjue. You can make at least 10 billion in net profit. How about it?"
Feng Jinchen clenched his fists, his gaze burning like a searchlight as he stared at Shen Feier. Shouldn't this woman be discussing cooperation with him? Why is she letting her uncle have it?
They really are the kind of people who treat others differently based on their status. What exactly is it about him that makes him inferior to his uncle?
Everyone thought Feng Jue would agree.
The man did indeed move his eyes, his beautiful peach blossom eyes haughtily landing on Shen Feier.
Shen Feier was immediately excited. Her father wouldn't easily listen to her on important business matters, but if she said she wanted to be with Feng Jue, he would be overjoyed. Therefore, giving her future son-in-law some concessions in business was entirely within his capabilities.
Under everyone's gaze, the refined and elegant man moved his lips, uttering only three lazy and indifferent words, "Time's up."
Shen Feier's smile froze instantly on her face. Before she could react, her Chanel-style jacket was ripped off.
With another sharp crack, the shoulder strap snapped instantly.
Shen Feier turned pale with fright, clutching her chest tightly with both hands, screaming, "Ahhh, help! It's indecent assault..."
"stop!"
A handsome man, unable to bear it any longer, stepped forward. He had a crush on Shen Feier, but his family was only a minor one among the wealthy, and Shen Feier didn't even look at him.
He dared not offend Feng Jue, but he simply could not bear to see the goddess humiliated.
"Mr. Feng, Miss Shen has already received the punishment she deserved. A man should have the grace of a man, so please be magnanimous and let her go."
The man gave a mocking smile. "The punishment we deserve?"
"Yes, Miss Su is clearly fine, Miss Shen only attempted to harm someone. The punishment is already enough, any further and people will just say you are bullying the weak."
"So what?"
With a single glance from Feng Jue, the bodyguard resumed his actions, expressionless, like a heartless machine.
With a few rustling sounds, the fragments of the dress all fell to the ground.
Shen Feier was almost completely naked, her eyes filled with terror, her legs gave way and she collapsed to the ground, curled up in a ball.
"Huh~"
Women can't bear to look, and men can't get enough of looking.
"I'm in a good mood now, so I won't force you to perform. You can get lost."
Shen Feier was so angry that she trembled all over.
She doesn't even have any clothes, how can she leave?
The man who had spoken earlier quickly took off his suit jacket and draped it over Shen Feier, then bent down to pick her up and turned to leave.
Gu Chong accepted the job offer.
Liu Cheng had two conditions: one was that he couldn't tell Su Xi that he was only willing to go in to protect her; the other was that he had to sign the employment contract before opening the invitation letter.
After Liu Cheng left, Gu Chong opened the invitation and couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.
He was indeed appointed as the general manager of a branch company, but he was sent to a remote, desolate overseas branch to develop the international market.
It also came with a plane ticket.
Before he could pick it up and look at it, there was a knock on the door, and a young man wearing glasses walked in.
"Mr. Gu, I am your special assistant. I have to catch my flight now, or I might be too late."
Gu Chong then picked up his ticket and saw that he was taking off in an hour.
The man smiled, quickly packed his things, and got into the car with his assistant to head to the airport.
At an altitude of 10,000 meters, Gu Chong looked down from the window, a glint of shrewdness flashing in his eyes.
The smile that curled at the corners of his lips had a hint of... eeriness.
With this matter resolved, Liu Cheng breathed a sigh of relief. He then called the president to report the situation.
After hanging up the phone, Feng Jue frowned slightly and glanced casually at Su Xi, who happened to be looking over at the same time.
The man looked away expressionlessly, every pore on his body screaming "Keep away."
Su Xi fidgeted with her fingers, but still walked over. "President Feng, thank you for today."
“You’re a member of the Feng family, I just don’t want to lose face with you.”
The implication was that if it weren't for the Feng family, he would definitely have stood by and done nothing.
Su Xi stood there without moving, her palms sweating.
Feng Jinchen made her feel very insecure. She always felt that he wouldn't obediently go to save Luo Chen for surgery after the banquet. She wanted to ask Feng Jue if he had any ideas, but she couldn't bring herself to ask.
After weighing the options, she realized that her pride was nothing compared to her brother's life.
The moment she opened her mouth, her face was still flushed with embarrassment, "President Feng, I..."
"Xixi, what are you saying?" An arm was draped over her neck, Feng Jinchen smiled, but the smile didn't reach his eyes. His expression was also unpleasant.
"I just want to thank my uncle for getting me out of that predicament."
"He's your uncle, so it's only right that he does these things. Besides, I should be the one expressing my gratitude. After all, you're men and women, so please don't have any more private contact in the future."
These words were spoken while looking at Su Xi, but they were clearly a veiled insult, and were also meant for Feng Jue's ears.
Seeing the visibly cold and stern look on Feng Jue's face, Feng Jinchen held Su Xi even tighter in his arms. Just as he was about to speak, Feng Jue got up and left.
After several dances and an auction, the banquet finally came to an end.
Su Xi had tried her best to cooperate, dancing when asked and attending to social engagements when required, doing everything she was supposed to do except for drinking. But the man's expression was still not good.
Once in the car, Su Xi fastened her seatbelt and said directly, "Jinchen, let's go to the hospital."
As if a switch had been flipped, the man finally erupted in fury the moment her words fell, "Su Xi, do you even have a heart? Surgery is life-threatening, and you only care about your brother, where is there even the slightest place for me?"
I'm not in a good mood today. Let's reschedule the surgery for another day.
Su Xi's face instantly froze, and her heart sank to the bottom.
