Chapter 324 Sitting on Su Xi's Hands
Feng Jue flatly refused.
The old lady rode in Feng Jue's car, while Wu Yaoyao and Feng Jinchen rode in another car.
Seeing Feng Jue finish his call, the old lady couldn't help but say, "Women do like domineering men, but only if they're not married, son."
"Su Xi used to be unmarried, and you didn't tell her. Now I'm a bit confused about whether Su Xi is actually unmarried or not, but you still haven't told her definitively. Aren't you deliberately trying to make her bear the stigma of betrayal and infidelity?"
Grandma Feng spoke earnestly and patiently, her brows furrowing into deep lines.
Feng Jue remained indifferent.
"I know what I'm doing."
The old lady suddenly felt a heart attack and suddenly understood why Su Xi had traveled all the way to hide in China.
It seems that by the time my son finally understands, it will be too late.
But it doesn't matter. Now that we have Su Mo, don't blame her for being rude. Su Xi isn't even worthy of carrying Su Mo's shoes.
If Feng Jue and Su Mo get together, it would be a wonderful thing.
Thinking about it, the old lady's smile returned.
Inside the car, seeing Feng Jinchen's absent-mindedness, Wu Yaoyao knew perfectly well what he was thinking. Her expression grew increasingly grim.
Su Xi really has some tricks up her sleeve. Despite being heavily pregnant, she managed to bewitch the three men, uncle and nephew, so much so that they couldn't resist her charms.
Since this kind of femme fatale has no divine retribution, she can only act on behalf of Heaven.
Back at the hotel, Wu Yaoyao was preparing to post about Su Xi's indecent behavior of seducing her brother-in-law again—no, her cousin-in-law again—on the internet.
She organized the timeline, added embellished text, and even a slightly blurry but undeniably telling photo that she had secretly taken. She contacted several influential media outlets and was about to send it when her phone suddenly rang.
It was an unfamiliar number calling.
Wu Yaoyao paused. The timing of the call was both coincidental and strange, and she suddenly had a bad feeling.
After thinking for a moment, she answered the phone.
"Hello, Miss Wu, I am Liu Cheng."
Liu Cheng? Feng Jue's special assistant. Wu Yaoyao's heart skipped a beat. Although she vaguely guessed what was going on, she still maintained her composure and asked in a cold voice, "Special Assistant Liu, what can I do for you?"
"I wouldn't call it guidance. I only have one thing to say: if you were to have your baby delivered via C-section now, with current medical technology, the baby could definitely survive. It's up to you. Oh, and I forgot to tell you, anesthesia isn't good for the baby. So..."
A cold laugh came from the other side.
Wu Yaoyao suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, her hand holding the phone trembling slightly.
Liu Cheng meant that if she dared to do anything or anything sinister to Su Xi again, he would cut open her belly to remove the mother and keep the child.
As for her fate, recalling the last time Feng Jinchen refused to administer anesthesia, if she really didn't receive anesthesia, she would have simply died on the operating table during her C-section.
Wu Yaoyao's eyes were bloodshot, filled with resentment. She understood perfectly well that this was actually Feng Jue's intention.
Feng Jue is truly ruthless and meticulous in his pursuit of Su Xi. Doesn't he have even a shred of tenderness towards her?
She didn't believe it.
"Assistant Liu, could you please explain things clearly? Is this your intention?" Wu Yaoyao asked cautiously, her tone devoid of any arrogance.
Liu Cheng sneered, "Since you're so stupid, you're just polluting the air. I've already said what the big boss said, and I have no interest in answering questions for idiots."
Since you're so incredibly foolish, it seems I should start contacting an obstetrician now; of course, an anesthesiologist isn't necessary.
"No, I won't..." Before Wu Yaoyao could finish speaking, the other end of the phone hung up.
When Wu Yaoyao dialed back, the other end was no longer answering.
Almost instantly, she was covered in cold sweat, as if she had been pulled out of the water. She hadn't expected that a mere assistant to Feng Jue would have such audacity, and that he seemed quite hostile towards her.
She could even imagine that even if she stopped doing anything to Su Xi, if Liu Cheng wanted to target her, he could simply claim to have caught her red-handed, caught her doing something to Su Xi, and then drag her to have a painful seppuku.
The more Wu Yaoyao thought about it, the more frightened she became, her scalp tingling with fear.
The impact last time was so strong that it caused her whole body to tremble from the stress.
She sent a voice message in a very humble tone, almost pleading, "Assistant Liu, I was wrong. I will never do anything to Su Xi again, really. I just wanted to confirm, I didn't mean anything else. I really won't dare to target Su Xi again, after all, we're relatives, aren't we?"
There was no reply. As time passed, half of Wu Yaoyao's fear gradually dissipated.
She wasn't raised to be easily frightened.
However, I don't plan to deal with Su Xi for the time being.
Thinking about it, she was really foolish. Su Xi had already cut off her own escape route. She just needed to stay calm and obedient and wait for Feng Jue to come to her. There was no need for her to do anything else.
Even if we need to deal with Su Xi, she can't do it herself.
It's not too late to deal with Su Xi after she becomes Feng Jue's woman. And that Liu Cheng too.
With that thought in mind, she completely deleted the edited text and dismissed all the media outlets she had contacted.
Suddenly, a thought flashed through Wu Yaoyao's mind, and she remembered something, or rather, she thought of a possibility.
Could Liu Cheng have feelings for Su Xi?
Thinking about it, Wu Yaoyao's lips curled up slightly. She couldn't deal with Su Xi, but she could still handle Liu Cheng, this small fry.
All it takes is to tell Feng Jue that Liu Cheng covets Su Xi, planting the seed of suspicion, and Liu Cheng will inevitably meet a gruesome end.
Whether he was genuinely interested in Su Xi or not, Wu Yaoyao disliked him, so he had to die.
The thought that she had been intimidated by a lowly assistant made her furious.
Mo Qian, that damned woman, said in front of everyone that she was a fake heiress. Almost all of her recently cultivated confidants and sycophants have betrayed her and firmly chosen the Mo family.
They're such ungrateful wretches!
Fortunately, she still had Wu Kang. Although Wu Kang was imprisoned, his subordinates and confidants were completely at her disposal.
After all, that idiot Wu Kang still thinks the child in her belly is his.
She immediately wrote a letter to Wukang and instructed someone to deliver it.
Tianjue's branch in country Z, Zhulu.
Gu Chong stood with his hands at his sides, looking at the man sitting in the high seat, and carefully reported the progress of the Zhu Lu project.
After the report was finished, and just when Gu Chong thought the man wouldn't speak, Feng Jue finally spoke up calmly, "His professional skills are indeed quite good."
Gu Chong smiled and said, "President Feng, you flatter me."
Feng Jue merely curled the corners of his lips slightly, his deep gaze shifting from Gu Chong's face as his slender fingers flipped through the documents. "Is the latest project a collaboration with Changdu? Has it been agreed upon?"
Changdu is Feng Jingnian's company.
On the surface, Changdu is under the control of Feng Jingnian, but in reality, it has been Su Xi managing it recently.
Gu Chong clenched his fists unconsciously and shook his head, "We're still in negotiations and contact; whether we can cooperate is still unknown."
Feng Jue said, "Let's strive to achieve cooperation."
Upon hearing this, Gu Chong was slightly taken aback. He had thought that Feng Jue would not want to see him cooperate with Su Xi.
He quickly nodded, "Definitely."
As soon as Gu Chong left the president's office, he breathed a sigh of relief and saw Liu Cheng.
Liu Cheng was quite surprised to see Gu Chong, his rival in love, emerge from the president's office unscathed with a relaxed, faint smile on his face.
However, his boss has always been someone who doesn't show his emotions and is very calculating, so he wasn't surprised.
The two greeted each other, and Liu Cheng knocked on the door and entered the president's office.
"President Feng, I've already sent people to keep an eye on Wu Yaoyao, but she hasn't made any moves yet."
"Um."
Liu Cheng then reported on some other tasks, but Feng Jue remained expressionless, his handsome face almost devoid of emotion, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking.
Liu Cheng hesitated for a moment, then finally said, "As for tonight's banquet..."
Feng Jue's expression finally changed slightly, and he glanced at Liu Cheng with cold eyes.
He has made it clear that he will not attend the banquet.
Liu Cheng's back stiffened instantly when he was stared at by a cold gaze, and he quickly said, "Miss Su and Feng Jingnian will also be going to Changdu."
Upon hearing this, Feng Jue paused for a moment, the eternal icy expression on his handsome face instantly melting away. He parted his thin lips slightly and uttered only one word, "Go."
Liu Cheng wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. It seemed his gamble had paid off. The big boss had very important plans for the evening, but he still had a nagging feeling that Miss Su was more important than anything else.
Looking at it now... if he hadn't reported it, the big boss would have definitely cracked his head open like a watermelon.
It really is true that serving a ruler is like serving a tiger.
villa.
Just as Su Xi and Feng Jingnian were about to get into the car, they saw Feng Jue strolling over leisurely.
Seeing Su Xi's obvious discomfort, Feng Jingnian opened the car door and let her get in first.
"Cousin."
Feng Jue glanced at Feng Jingnian, then turned his gaze to the car.
Although she had applied a privacy screen protector and knew that Feng Jue couldn't see anything, Su Xi still unconsciously tensed up and felt somewhat uncomfortable when the man's beautiful peach blossom eyes swept over her.
"Are you going to a banquet?"
"Yes. Cousin, please make yourself at home in the villa." This banquet is the annual business exchange conference of country Z. There are topics that Changdu is interested in, which is why he and Su Xi are attending.
As for Feng Jue, now that he's here, he probably doesn't plan to attend the banquet.
However, Feng Jue smiled and said, "I'm going too, why don't we go together?"
This is a statement of fact. Clearly, it doesn't require the consent of either of them.
Feng Jingnian couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.
Before he could even ask a question, Feng Jue replied without changing his expression, "The car's been sent for maintenance. You don't mind if I hitch a ride, do you?"
Feng Jingnian?
Feng Jue owns countless cars in the Zhulu car market; could it be that they've all been sent for maintenance? Are you kidding me?
That's what he was thinking, and that's what he asked, "Have they all been sent for maintenance?"
"Yes." Feng Jue nodded solemnly.
Looking at the man's unsmiling and serious expression, Feng Jingnian almost believed him.
This guy's here to ride for free.
"What, we're all relatives, you wouldn't be so stingy, would you?"
Feng Jingnian was speechless again, and could only say, "I'll ask Xixi."
He opened the car door and looked at Su Xi questioningly.
Su Xi clearly heard their conversation perfectly. She hadn't expected Feng Jue to be so childish, but his expression was so serious and earnest that Su Xi almost believed he had really sent all his cars for maintenance.
The truth was already clear, but no one could stop Feng Jue from doing what he wanted to do. Su Xi could only nod and gesture for Feng Jingnian to sit down, separating her from Feng Jue.
Feng Jingnian understood and felt a warmth in his heart. "Cousin, get in the car."
Seeing Feng Jue looking over, he got into the car.
Feng Jue walked over, but instead of getting into the car, he closed the door and went around to the other side.
The car door was suddenly pulled open, and Su Xi looked up, only to be met with a pair of deep, pool-like eyes.
Su Xi was already sitting quite far to the side; there was no room for him.
But Feng Jue remained unfazed, a slight smile playing on his lips, his expression indifferent, "Could you perhaps move over a little?"
This is still a statement of fact.
Su Xi had no choice but to move further inside.
As soon as a few seats became available outside, Feng Jue seemed eager to sit down.
He suddenly sat down on the back of Su Xi's hand.
Su Xi felt as if she had been electrocuted and tried to pull her hand back, but she couldn't.
Her face flushed slightly, mostly from anger.
Feng Jue seemed not to notice, and simply lifted his buttocks slightly without making a sound.
Su Xi then withdrew her hand and sat down inside.
Inside the spacious luxury car, the back seats are incredibly roomy, almost enough to seat seven or eight people side by side.
However, Su Xi and Feng Jingnian sat on the other side, with a large gap between them and Feng Jue.
Feng Jue moved his buttocks expressionlessly until he was right next to Su Xi before stopping.
A pleasant yet crisp scent suddenly filled the carriage, completely overpowering the pleasant bellflower scent on Feng Jingnian's body.
That's incredibly domineering and rude.
Su Xi couldn't help but glare at him, "Have you taken the wrong medicine?"
Feng Jue didn't look at her, his voice indifferent, "Perhaps, it's just a change in environment."
Su Xi didn't want to argue with this man anymore, so she instructed the driver, "Drive."
No one spoke along the way, and the two men didn't seem to be at odds, but the scent of bellflowers was still firmly suppressed by the sandalwood fragrance in the air.
The journey was short, and we soon arrived outside the auditorium.
Feng Jue seemed to want to say something, but seeing that Su Xi's phone had received a message, he could only get out of the car, nod to Feng Jingnian, and leave.
Before he had walked more than a few steps, Feng Jue was surrounded by people exchanging pleasantries.
Su Xi shuddered when she saw the message on her phone.
Noticing that Su Xi's expression was a little off, Feng Jingnian asked, "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing." Su Xi suppressed the turmoil in her heart and got out of the car with Feng Jingnian, walking towards the banquet hall.
That was a collaboration invitation, and the person who invited her was... Shen Congxuan.
Ye Qingqian had already told Shen Congxuan about all the wicked things he had done.
She knew that his activities were limited to a 10-kilometer radius around the capital and that he wouldn't do anything to her, but she still couldn't help but feel repulsed by him.
However, after taking a quick look at his proposed plan, she was indeed very interested in it.
She and Feng Jingnian had recently been planning to open up the market in the capital. The plan was excellent, and if it weren't for Shen Congxuan, she might have considered it. But now...
After the banquet had been going on for a while, Su Xi went to the restroom.
As she came out of the cubicle, she saw a figure that she found repulsive.
It's Wu Yaoyao.
Wu Yaoyao crossed her arms, looking down at people with a half-smile, clearly waiting specifically for Su Xi.
Su Xi had nothing to say to her and tried to leave by walking around her.
However, Wu Yaoyao's words stunned her on the spot, as if she had been struck by lightning.
