Chapter 203 A Vicious Light Revealed
Su Xi glanced at the man speechlessly. Wasn't Liu Cheng trained by the man in front of her?
Seeing that the man was about to speak ill of Liu Cheng, she immediately covered his mouth with her hand and said fiercely, "Don't interrupt, listen to her."
Feng Jue's lips brushed against the woman's palm, and a tingling sensation instantly spread through her hand. Su Xi was startled and withdrew her hand, rolling her eyes at him.
The man bit his lip, still wanting more.
Su Xi felt as if she had been struck by lightning, and she turned her eyes away angrily. This man had clearly taken the wrong medicine today; he was acting strangely.
In the video, the woman hanging up has a face full of misery and fear, and her voice is trembling. "I used to have a happy family, but a mistress broke in and not only stole my man, but also my family property. I have nothing left."
So when I saw online that Su Xi was a womanizer, a homewrecker, and a repeat offender, I couldn't help but unleash my fury.
Su Xi's fingers clenched involuntarily, and her face turned deathly pale instantly.
So it was all because of her again. The thought that her uncle and Luo Chen were also because of her made her feel cold.
Noticing that the little hand in his palm had become cold, Feng Jue asked softly, "What's wrong?"
Su Xi murmured softly, more like talking to herself, "Luo Chen originally had a lot of time left, but because of the quarrel between me and Feng Jinchen, he was targeted, and now his life is almost on the countdown."
This woman almost killed you because she was also trying to get back at me.
And my uncle, I always felt that the arson plot was ultimately aimed at me. Were those 30 precious lives indirectly caused by me?
A pang of heartache flashed in Feng Jue's eyes as he said softly, "Xiao Xi, everyone is an independent individual. You should be completely free. At the same time, you shouldn't impose other people's fates on yourself. Just do your best and leave the rest to fate."
You've done your best regarding Luo Chen's matter. You can be sad and upset, but you absolutely cannot feel guilty or blame yourself. Do you understand?
As for those 30 lives, you are also a victim. You can seek justice for them, but you can't have such absurd thoughts, understand?
Su Xi nodded, feeling a sense of sudden enlightenment, and focused all her attention back on the video.
The woman's constant nagging explanations all stemmed from Su Xi's womanizing ways, which prompted her to "act on behalf of heaven." The fewer shameless mistresses there are, the more happy families there will be.
Liu Cheng interrupted her coldly, "You're lying, since you're not being honest..."
The moment the words left his mouth, a red-hot branding iron was placed on the woman's chest.
Luo Tie quickly burned his clothes, which fell onto his skin, accompanied by a chilling sizzling sound, followed by billowing smoke and the acrid smell of burnt meat.
"ah-"
The woman screamed repeatedly, her eyes almost bulging out of their sockets from the pain.
The moment Su Xi closed her eyes, the man's warm palm touched her eyes.
Aren't you going to tell me?
The woman's face was covered in cold sweat, and her veins were bulging. Thinking that her son's life was in Huo Qianfan's hands, she gritted her teeth and said, "What I said is the truth."
"Okay, the bones are still very hard. But I don't know how hard the bones are for this person."
Liu Cheng spun the red-hot branding iron in his hand and placed it above the baby.
The woman's pupils suddenly contracted to slits. "No! How dare you! This is just a baby. Are you even human?"
"So what if it's a baby? It's not my offspring. Tsk tsk, I bet this branding iron will melt even the bones. You only have three seconds."
"Three, two..."
The woman's eyes were bloodshot as she struggled violently, refusing to let go.
This is just her daughter. Between a daughter and a son, her scales undoubtedly tip towards her son.
"...Three!" The moment the words left his mouth, Liu Cheng slammed the branding iron down hard.
The woman screamed, "No!"
Su Xi's heart leaped into her throat, her eyes wide with shock. Sure enough, just as the branding iron was about to touch the baby, it veered off course and landed on the table beside her.
"Alright, take her to the police station. Check her relatives, especially whether her child is being held captive. Follow the child to find that person," Feng Jue said.
"Understood, Mr. Feng."
After hanging up the video call, Feng Jue looked at Su Xi and said, "The person who instigated this definitely has a personal grudge against you. Think about it, who could it be?"
Su Xi thought for a moment and shook her head, "I don't know either. Maybe what that woman said is true, and it's because of the trending topics about me flirting with other women that caused this trouble."
The man didn't take it seriously. "Those commoners are just good at talking; they would never dare to lay a finger on you."
Su Xi remained noncommittal, her heart sinking.
"It's getting late, I'm going back."
Aren't you going to stay here with me?
Su Xi looked into the man's eyes, "I don't want to be cursed to death by those netizens."
Stepping out of the ward, Su Xi took out a mask and sunglasses, and put on a hat.
I found a quiet place and sent the recording of my conversation with my uncle to Attorney Qian, asking him to investigate the truth behind the arson attack on the pharmaceutical factory.
She plans to handle her uncle's situation on her own. Things are always reciprocal.
Seeking help from others will only make you subject to their control.
She wanted to completely sever ties with these two men after Luo Chen's incident, stay away from their awful family and the various awful rivals they had attracted, and start a new life.
After speaking with Attorney Qian on the phone, I looked through my contacts and found Gu Chong's contact information, then called him directly.
Gu Chong was an eyewitness to the fire, and perhaps we can find a breakthrough from his description.
Seeing Su Xi's call, Gu Chong wasn't too surprised. Looking at the two words "Xi Xi" flashing on the screen, the man's handsome eyes softened, and he swiped to answer the call.
"Hello, Miss Su?"
"Mr. Gu, I'd like to talk to you about my uncle's matter. Do you have time?"
Yes. When?
"Right now."
After agreeing to meet at a coffee shop, Su Xi hailed a taxi.
Not long after they started driving, the driver realized that someone was following them.
"Dare to follow me? I'm Brother Biao, the champion of Beijing's racing competition. Miss, please sit tight and hold on."
"Mmm." Su Xi gripped the handle tightly.
In just two or three blocks, they had left that car far behind.
"This weakling dares to follow me?" The driver suddenly realized, "He wasn't following you, was he?"
Su Xi pursed her lips. "I don't know."
"Then you should be careful lately. Being careful is always the right thing to do."
"good."
Just then, the navigation system announced that there was an accident 500 meters ahead, which would cause a traffic jam of several hundred meters.
Not long after we started driving, the road ahead was indeed jammed like a honeycomb.
"I'll get off and walk." Su Xi paid the fare and started walking.
Gu Chong called, "Ms. Su, where are you? There seems to be a traffic jam ahead."
"I'm near E's house. I'm walking. I'll be there soon."
"good."
Su Xi put her phone in her bag, completely unaware that a woman wearing a baseball cap was quickly following behind her.
His triangular eyes flashed with a fierce light.
