Chapter 33 What I want, you probably can't afford.
As soon as Su Xi arrived at the company, Ji Feifei stormed over angrily.
She noticed that her hands were wrapped up like rice dumplings and hung around her neck, and her eyes darkened.
"Su Xi, are you satisfied now?" Ji Feifei's eyes were fierce as she raised her hand to slap Su Xi across the face.
"You're crazy." Su Xi grabbed her hand, shook it off violently, and turned to go to the manager's office.
Ji Feifei's company was fined half a month's salary for its actions, and she couldn't swallow her anger. Taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, she sneered at Su Xi, "Are you a primary school student? How dare you go and complain?"
Su Xi raised her phone, expressionless, and played the recording. A woman's sharp, sarcastic voice came through, "Are you a primary school student...?"
Ji Feifei was immediately speechless, her expression changing in a very interesting way. Finally, she gave a cold snort that sounded fierce but was actually weak, and then slunk away.
The next few days were relatively quiet, and he didn't bother Su Xi anymore.
For several days in a row, Su Xi received a large bouquet of flowers, signed "Mr. Feng, I will love you for a lifetime." Nothing else.
Su Xi sneered and, unable to bear it any longer, sent a text message: Feng Jinchen, don't come to the office to deliver flowers anymore.
Feng Jinchen: What's wrong, wife? Don't you like it?
Su Xi: Yes, I like diamonds.
Feng Jinchen didn't reply, but called back after a moment, "Xixi, do you think the gift I gave you was too cheap? It's all from my heart, it's priceless."
The man spoke as if their love had been tainted by money.
Su Xi chuckled, "Feng Jinchen, did you really win Wu Yaoyao's heart just by taking her out to dinner and sending her flowers?"
Upon hearing this, Feng Jinchen felt a surge of irritation and anger. He was about to retort when he suddenly remembered the 1 billion yuan villa under Wu Yaoyao's name and felt somewhat guilty. But wasn't that because Wu Yaoyao was carrying the Feng family's bloodline?
Rubbing his temples, Feng Jinchen softened his tone as much as possible, "Okay, I understand. Xixi, what do you want?"
The deliberate pause and emphasis on the word "want" made Su Xi feel as if her self-esteem had been pierced by a honeycomb.
She didn't say anything and hung up the phone immediately.
Listening to the dial tone on the phone, Feng Jinchen felt another wave of exhaustion. Sometimes he even felt like he couldn't keep going.
Today is Saturday, and Su Xi was planning to go to Yicheng for an infertility checkup. Just as she was about to leave, she received a call from Feng Jue.
Looking at the two words flashing on her phone, yes, it was her uncle. Why would her uncle call her?
Su Xi paused for a moment before quickly answering the call. Her uncle was making hundreds of millions every minute; making him wait would definitely make him angry.
As expected, Feng Jue's tone was laced with hostility, and even a hint of barely perceptible resentment, "Su Xi, what do you mean by having Feng Jinchen send over a bunch of tonics?"
Feng Jinchen had his assistant deliver a pile of gifts to thank him for taking care of his wife, saying it was Su Xi's doing. The man's face immediately fell. What did this mean? Was he drawing a line? Was he settling all ties? Was he distancing himself from her? When he saw that it was a bunch of health supplements, he immediately called Su Xi.
"Supplements...?" Su Xi touched her nose, her eyes flickering. "Yes, yes, Uncle, you've helped me so many times, this is just a small token of my appreciation." Is there a problem?
Feng Jue sneered, "Is this all you've got in common?"
Su Xi gripped her phone tightly, her delicate eyebrows furrowing. She tightened her lips and thought quickly for a moment before finally asking humbly and timidly, "Then... what does Uncle want?"
“I want…” Feng Jue suddenly stopped speaking. After a moment, his voice, which came through the phone, was cold and languid. “What I want, I’m afraid you can’t afford.”
He hung up the phone after saying that.
Su Xi pursed her lips. Feng Jue was wealthy and powerful; what he wanted was beyond her means. She'd just have to save up slowly.
Arriving at Yicheng Hospital by taxi, the doctor gave Su Xi a strange look after hearing her story. A pregnant woman came to check for infertility?
Is he deaf?
Su Xi gave an awkward but polite smile, "I just wanted to find out if I can still have children in the future."
The doctor's ears twitched, indicating he still didn't understand. But there's no reason to turn down a business that's offered up.
Su Xi was certain that the report wouldn't say she was pregnant, so she readily underwent all the necessary tests.
As she walked out of the clinic, she seemed to see a familiar figure, perhaps Wu Yaoyao. But when she looked again, the person was gone.
In the afternoon, the house that Feng Jinchen bought was successfully sold, and the more than 20 million yuan was transferred directly to his uncle. Su Zian immediately wrote an IOU, pressed his fingerprint on it, and had his assistant deliver it.
Sunday is Ye Qingqian's birthday.
When Feng Jinchen learned that Su Xi was going to a banquet, he canceled his own engagements to accompany her.
"Xixi, when are you moving to the new house? I'll send someone to help you."
Su Xi fastened her seatbelt expressionlessly. "Two or three months, maybe, not sure. If we're not staying here, you don't want to take it back, do you?"
Feng Jinchen chuckled dryly, "How could that be? That's yours, and so am I."
Su Xi ignored him and turned away.
The luxury car stopped at the Ye residence. "Xi Xi," Feng Jinchen called softly, smiling as he took Su Xi's hand.
With her eyes lowered, she produced an exquisite and luxurious jewelry box in her hand.
Recalling Feng Jinchen's hurtful tone that day, Su Xi didn't think twice and threw the object back into the man's arms.
The box was opened, revealing an exquisite Ocean Star gemstone necklace.
"Wife, I was wrong, please don't be angry anymore, okay?" Feng Jinchen said sincerely, holding Su Xi's hand and looking up at her eyes with his shoulders lowered.
Seeing his beautiful and alluring wife, he suddenly smiled, gently pinched her cheek, and said softly, "I really, really won't dare to do it again."
"This necklace goes perfectly with your dress. Come on, let me help you put it on."
Su Xi resisted, but Feng Jinchen grabbed her large hand and easily pinned down her arms. Slowly, with a beautiful yet wicked touch, he used his teeth and his other hand to put the necklace on Su Xi.
After putting it on, he released Su Xi, looking at her with a smile. His puppy-dog eyes were filled with affection and resentment, as if he could scold or beat his wife as he pleased.
Su Xi looked away and got out of the car.
"Xixi, why are you only arriving now?" Ye Qingqian walked over with a smile, took Su Xi's arm, and separated her from Feng Jinchen.
Today, Ye Qingqian wore a burgundy halter-neck evening gown, frosted crystal high heels, and a small, exquisite tassel hair clip in her long, brown, wavy hair. She looked both innocent and alluring, making her a striking sight.
After walking a few steps, she turned to Feng Jinchen and said, "Mr. Feng, Xixi and I have something to talk about. Feel free to wander around, make yourself at home, just don't flirt with other girls."
After saying that, she ignored Feng Jinchen's darkening expression and pulled Su Xi away.
"Qianqian, what's wrong?"
Seeing Ye Qingqian acting mysteriously, as if she was about to do something big, Su Xi couldn't help but ask.
Ye Qingqian had long since retracted the eight large white teeth she had previously revealed, and looked somewhat forlorn and resolute.
"You'll see when you get there. If you had come any later, you would have missed the show."
