Chapter 140 Brain and Butt Upside Down
Sharp eyes shot over, and Liu Yufeng realized what was happening, her words stopping abruptly.
This kind of thing will come out sooner or later, so why bother having her say it? If the old lady gets sick or even dies from anger, she can't afford the consequences.
"What is it to me?" the old lady pressed.
Liu Yufeng's eyes darted around, "It's your cousin, Feng Jingnian."
The old lady looked at Su Xi, her eyes flickering slightly, her wise yet slightly cloudy eyes revealing no emotion.
“Grandma, Jingnian and I have been playing together since we were little. Ms. Liu has misunderstood. I have no relationship with him at all. I don’t want to find a new partner right now.”
The old lady clearly believed Su Xi's words, and her previous doubts vanished. "Silly child, a woman always needs to find a man to live with. I understand if you don't want to find one now, but Grandma will introduce you to someone good in a while."
The family doctor arrived and examined the old lady, finding nothing wrong. At Su Xi's signal, the doctor did not leave but waited by her side.
Although the old lady's body was normal, her heart rate was too fast, which indicated that she was somewhat agitated. Moreover, the scene in front of him was tense, so he naturally had to stay behind in case of any unforeseen circumstances.
No one in the living room noticed that the butler deliberately avoided the living room and led Feng Jue to the old man's study.
The butler waited at the door, closing it behind him. The atmosphere in the study was tense, the air thick with a chill.
Feng Jue sat casually on the sofa. "Dad, why did you call me over in such a hurry? What's the matter?"
"You still have the nerve to ask me?" The old man's face was so dark it could drip water. After Liu Yufeng embellished her account of what happened in court, she almost made the old man suffer a stroke.
"Feng Jue, are you crazy? That woman is nothing but a nose and two eyes, what's so great about her? You're so worried about her and trying so hard to help her, do you even know who she hates the most?"
Feng Jue's obsidian eyes darkened, and his fists clenched instantly at his sides.
“You know perfectly well that the person she hates the most isn’t all of us, but you.”
The man's peach blossom eyes trembled slightly.
Seeing the man's unpleasant expression, the old man was very satisfied, almost as if he had already planned it all out. His voice was icy and full of authority, "Immediately sever all ties with that woman, or don't blame me for telling her the truth."
A sharp gaze shot over, making the old man's heart tremble. He felt a chill run down his spine, and then, enraged, he slammed his fist on the table and stood up.
"What kind of look is that? No matter how powerful or capable you are, I'm still your father."
Feng Jue sneered indifferently, "If the old man tells anyone, our father-son relationship will be over. You'd better watch out."
The old man was so angry he almost choked. "You scoundrel! Just one woman and you've become so heartless? Are you even human?"
"You can't argue with a woman, why make such a fuss? She's going to be with me, not you. Aren't you overthinking this?"
"You! That's not just a woman, but a woman with no background, as lowly as weeds, and also your niece-in-law. It's utterly inappropriate and intolerable to the world! Other women are acceptable, but not her."
Feng Jue's eyes grew even colder. "As lowly as weeds? Go back three generations, who wasn't born a common farmer? Such forgetfulness of one's roots is even more intolerable to the world."
"You're utterly unreasonable." The old man took out his cane and swung it hard across Feng Jue's back.
With a muffled thud, the man's handsome face turned slightly pale.
"Kneel down."
Feng Jue rose, and even when he knelt, he did so with unparalleled grace, his back ramrod straight.
The old man raised his cane. "Tell me, are you breaking up with that woman or not?"
Feng Jue sneered and shook his head, "No."
Bang!
The old man struck again with the stick.
The butler outside the door, listening to the sounds of canes being swung across his back, frowned deeply. This father and son were really at odds; they were locked in a fierce battle.
The housekeeper was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
living room.
The old lady saw Liu Yufeng and her daughter surrounding Wu Yaoyao, applying burn ointment to her burns, and frowned, asking what happened.
Feng Qinyue glared fiercely at Su Xi and indignantly complained, "Sister Yaoyao kindly offered Su Xi tea, but Su Xi deliberately refused to take it and spilled hot water, scalding Sister Yaoyao. If the baby in her womb is hurt, she wouldn't be able to pay for it even if she had several lives."
Instead of scolding Su Xi, the old lady asked with concern, "Are you burned?"
"She's thick-skinned and tough..." Feng Qinyue started to say, but met the old lady's cold gaze and didn't dare to finish her sentence. She pouted, clearly unconvinced.
"I'm fine, Grandma."
The old lady didn't believe it. She lifted Su Xi's skirt and saw several large and small red spots on her fair legs. Some of them even had blisters, which looked shocking.
Feng Jinchen glanced over lazily, his pupils contracting slightly when he saw the wounds on the woman's legs. Realizing it was her own fault, the man's handsome face returned to its cold expression.
The old lady had the family doctor treat Su Xi, then suddenly looked at Feng Jinchen and said, "Is this how you treat your wife? You deserve to divorce her."
"She tried to harm others but ended up burning herself; she deserved it."
"Even if you're married for one night, there's still a hundred days of kindness. Even if you're getting a divorce, shouldn't you at least watch your words?"
Feng Jinchen remained silent. He naturally didn't think he had done anything wrong, but he didn't want to get into a fight with the old lady. Winning would mean losing, and losing would mean losing even more. He wasn't stupid.
The old lady glared at Liu Yufeng and her daughter, even more furious. "And you two, are you out of your mind? The burn ointment should be given to Su Xi, why give it to this homewrecker?"
Wu Yaoyao lowered her eyes and almost bit her lower lip until it bled, cursing this old bastard a thousand times in her heart.
Liu Yufeng and her daughter also looked unwell.
"Mom, no matter what, Yao Yao is carrying your great-grandson, so she is naturally a thousand times more precious than Su Xi, who can't have children."
"Sure, once your husbands' mistresses get pregnant, Grandpa and I will treat her like a precious treasure at home. She'll be number one in terms of food, drink, and everything else. You two will have to step aside, how about that?"
Upon hearing this, the two women's faces instantly stiffened and twisted, clearly indicating that they were not pleased.
The old lady withdrew her gaze with disdain, took Su Xi's hand, and said earnestly with a hint of heartache and guilt,
"Xiaoxi, are you really sure?"
Second marriages are often not as good as first marriages. If you still want to continue, I will train Jinchen well until he becomes a qualified husband.
"As long as I have a breath left, I'll keep an eye on him, okay?"
Feng Jinchen couldn't help but say, "Grandma, marriage is a two-way street. Why don't you ask for my opinion?"
Su Xi was so cold and ruthless to him, he had a lot of grievances to vent.
"You've gotten other women pregnant, what right do you have to speak? Get out of here."
Feng Jinchen was so angry he couldn't speak.
Liu Yufeng said sarcastically, "Mom, of course she's thought it through. A woman who can't have children got married and swindled 20 billion yuan; she's probably laughing in her sleep."
"20 billion is too much? I think it's too little. A man who cheats should leave with nothing. Without money, let's see which mistress would still want to be with him."
Wu Yaoyao felt she had been subtly insulted, and her little face turned bruised.
"Oh, right," the old lady patted Su Xi's hand again, as if she had something important to say.
Everyone perked up their ears.
