Chapter 253 The one who provokes first is despicable.
She finally heard footsteps approaching. It was definitely Feng Jue's footsteps.
Su Xi limped to her feet and, supporting herself against the wall, walked to the door.
The moment the door opened, her stiff legs suddenly went numb, and she fell down.
A pair of long, slender hands pulled her up. Seeing that the woman's legs were numb and stiff, making her unsteady, the man's face turned cold.
He bent down and picked the woman up horizontally, placing her on the sofa.
"Feng Jue, what tricks are you playing?" Su Xi slapped her leg while glaring fiercely at the man in front of her.
Feng Jue remained silent, focusing on massaging the woman's legs with his professional knowledge.
When he was starting his business, he often worked day and night, sometimes maintaining the same posture for so long that his legs would become stiff and immobile. Therefore, he is very skilled at relieving such symptoms.
Su Xi felt a tingling sensation in her legs, and her numb legs gradually regained feeling and she was able to move them soon.
Once she could move freely, Su Xi suddenly sat up from the sofa and rushed straight out.
Feng Jue followed, his long legs moving slowly, yet his pace was almost the same as Su Xi's jogging speed.
"Su Xi, I came to tell you that Luo Chen has completed the bone marrow matching surgery. He is currently in the sterile intensive care unit. You can visit him now, but you'll have to go through the glass."
Su Xi stopped abruptly, her eyes filled with disbelief and shock.
This was the first time she had really looked at the man in front of her. His lips were pale, his face looked tired, and he seemed weak.
Su Xi almost blurted out, "Is that someone you're good at?"
"no."
Su Xi was somewhat skeptical. "Who was that?"
“You don’t need to know, I’ve already given him enough money. I’ve repaid the favor.”
Su Xi pursed her lips. "How can money be enough to repay a life-saving debt?"
The man didn't speak, his peach blossom eyes looking at the woman with an ambiguous expression.
Su Xi suddenly remembered that she had used 30 billion to buy out all the life-saving favors, and her face turned red instantly.
They walked in silence until they arrived at the hospital. Through the sterile glass, they saw that Luo Chen was awake and sitting on the bed fiddling with the computer.
Upon seeing Su Xi and Feng Jue, he even turned around and winked, looking much better.
Dr. Li Yu came over and said, "The surgery went very smoothly. Su Luochen is young, and all his indicators are normal. However, he still needs to be observed for three days. After three days, he can be discharged and go wherever he wants. Of course, there are some dietary restrictions and precautions."
Su Xi burst into tears of joy, her silent tears turning into trembling shoulders as she unconsciously leaned against Feng Jue's shoulder, leaving tear stains on his white shirt.
By the time she realized what was happening, the man's clothes were completely soaked.
She quickly took a few steps back, her eyes darting around, not daring to look the man in the eye. "I'm sorry, Mr. Feng, please go and change your clothes."
"No need."
Su Xi's heart skipped a beat.
"This is good."
Su Xi's cheeks flushed instantly. Forcing herself not to be presumptuous, she cleared her throat and said calmly, "President Feng, I presume you've received the money. You should have seen the message I sent. I want to say it again, from now on, you and I are strangers."
The man glanced at her, his tone slightly cold, "I've already transferred that money back. If you don't accept it, it will be held by a third party. That money isn't with me; you haven't repaid my kindness yet."
Su Xi clenched her fingers, and her gaze toward the man turned cold.
"You provoked me first. I'll decide when it ends."
With a cold laugh to herself, Su Xi stopped arguing. Once her brother left the hospital to travel the world, she would also go somewhere where no one knew her.
Footsteps approached. It was clear from their voices that they meant trouble.
Feng Jinchen's face was extremely ugly. Seeing the two of them standing together like a loving couple made him even angrier.
Upon seeing Feng Jinchen, Feng Jue narrowed his eyes. "What are you doing here?"
Feng Jinchen suddenly stopped, feeling a chill run down his spine. He turned to look at Su Xi and said, "Su Xi, how could you be so vicious as to send your own mother to the police station?"
“We’ve never been married, so what kind of mother-in-law is she? Besides, she was going to bury me alive. I’m already being merciful by not digging a hole and kicking her in.”
Feng Jinchen stared wide-eyed in disbelief, as if he were seeing this woman for the first time. "When did you become so ruthless?"
"Likewise. As the saying goes, the one who starts it is the one who's at fault. I was just retaliating. When it comes to being vicious, I'm not even one-tenth as venomous as you and your son."
Feng Jinchen's eyes flickered, and he subconsciously looked at Feng Jue. When he saw the latter's gaze fixed on Su Xi with a look that said "you're teachable," he felt a pang of anger.
"Su Xi, you've been with me for three years. Even without that marriage certificate, in the eyes of the world, we are husband and wife. If you want to be with your uncle, just wait to be drowned in spittle."
"You're overthinking it. I have nothing to do with him."
"Hmph, he took 30 billion from me for you. Anyone with a brain knows you two have been having an affair for a long time. This is utterly depraved and immoral."
Su Xi smiled and said, "That money wasn't for me, it was for him. He saved me many times, and I've already transferred that money to his account. We're even now."
Feng Jue moved his lips, but did not speak.
Feng Jinchen, however, bristled like a rooster, "What? What did you say? You gave all 30 billion to my uncle? That's my money, what right do you have?"
If the money were in Su Xi's hands, he was confident he could get it back sooner or later. But if it were in the hands of the ruthless one, it would be like throwing a meat bun to a dog—gone and never to be returned.
Su Xi looked at the man as if he were an idiot and said mockingly, "Your money? Then call out to it, will it answer?"
Feng Jue couldn't help but chuckle. The man, who always had an icy expression, was so handsome that the mountains and rivers paled in comparison, and everything else became his foil.
Su Xi couldn't help but stare at the man, purely out of admiration and curiosity.
Feng Jinchen saw this and his expression became even more unpleasant.
"Uncle, you just accepted money from a weak woman?" That shouldn't be the case. Given my uncle's personality, he would never accept this money.
“I’ve saved her many times, and that money is just to repay that favor once. To pay it off, it would take at least 300 billion. Why don’t you pay it off for her?”
Feng Jinchen instinctively retorted, "She has nothing to do with me, why should I pay for her?"
As soon as the words left his mouth, he realized that his words were contradictory, and his face involuntarily turned slightly red.
"It's good that you know you have nothing to do with her. If you dare to bother her again, I'll make you write an IOU for the 300 billion."
"What right do you have? Why don't you just rob me?" Feng Jinchen was all bark and no bite. Although Feng Jue meant what he said, he wouldn't dare do anything to him if his grandfather made the decision.
"Xixi, there's still half a day. Only I can save your brother..."
"Shut up." Su Xi felt nauseous at the mention of such words. "My brother has already had the surgery. Whether your bone marrow is steamed or braised is your own business and has nothing to do with me."
"What?" Feng Jinchen's pupils contracted, and he turned to look at the sterile room. Su Luochen happened to be looking over and gave him the middle finger.
Feng Jinchen's lips twitched, and he glared at Su Xi. "Now that a match has been found, why are you still chasing me to have surgery? Are you playing me for a fool?"
Su Xi sneered, "I'll play you if I want, do I need to pick a day?"
"You, you've changed." Feng Jinchen was dumbfounded. He couldn't gain any advantage in this situation at all. He wanted to leave, but he was unwilling to give up.
His gaze suddenly shifted, and he smiled, "Luo Chen has had surgery, but who knows if it will recur? As for me, I am a true match. Are you sure there won't be a day when you have to ask me for help?"
Su Xi's heart skipped a beat; she hadn't expected this. However, she quickly replied coldly, "If you're willing to donate bone marrow, pigs can fly. Please leave; you're not welcome here."
Since his wife had spoken, Feng Jue gave her a look, and bodyguards immediately came over to throw Feng Jinchen out.
"Fine, Su Xi, you'll regret this." Feng Jinchen slipped away without looking back.
I had just stepped out of the hospital when I received a call from my subordinate.
Upon hearing what was said on the other end, Feng Jinchen's handsome face twisted with rage. "Useless idiots! A bunch of useless idiots! Since you ran away, catch you! I'll give you three days. If you can't catch them, you'll be sorry!"
After what happened last time, Wang Dong actually dared to inform his grandparents. There's no point in going to Africa then; he'll just have someone take care of him.
Disloyal dogs should not be kept.
I never expected Wang Dong to dare to run away. Wang Dong has been my confidant for so many years, and I know many of his secrets. If he were to become desperate and reveal everything…
Upon considering this possibility, Feng Jinchen's expression changed repeatedly. He made a phone call to send more people to hunt down Wang Dong before he finally felt a little relieved.
Hospital.
"President Feng, I can keep an eye on Luo Chen. You can go and do your work. You don't need to come to Luo Chen's place anymore."
Feng Jue raised an eyebrow, and the air around him suddenly turned cold. "Aren't you being a bit ungrateful?"
Su Xi smiled. "President Feng is very busy, I'm doing this for your own good. Since you have so much free time, I have something I want to ask you."
Meeting the woman's clear, piercing eyes, Feng Jue felt a little uneasy, but still asked, "What is it?"
"Was my mother's car accident related to you?"
Su Xi stared straight into the man's eyes and clearly caught a sudden, violent flicker in his gaze, causing her heart to sink to the bottom.
"No."
Feng Jue wouldn't lie; if he said no, then he probably didn't. But she still asked, "But you seem a little guilty."
"I'm just a little shocked. Why would you think that?"
"It's nothing, I just suddenly thought of this possibility, so I asked."
Neither of them spoke. Time flowed slowly, and the cold sweat on Feng Jue's back gradually dried. His heart was still pounding with anxiety.
Su Xi glanced over unconsciously, and the man's back broke out in a cold sweat again.
Upon receiving a call from the company, Feng Jue stood up. "I'm going back to the company. Please let me know if Luo Chen has any issues."
Su Xi looked at him seriously, "I don't think that's necessary."
Feng Jue gave the woman a deep look, said nothing more, and turned to leave.
Feng Group.
Feng Jinchen received a call from the police station saying that Liu Yufeng wanted to see him.
