Chapter 241 Feng Jue's Covetous Eyes on Su Xi
Before she could react, a sharp, cold aura rushed into her nostrils, her vision blurred for a moment, and when she regained her balance, the man was already protecting her behind him.
Upon seeing that it was Feng Jue, Feng Jinchen's handsome face contorted with rage. "Uncle, you really are a persistent ghost."
Feng Jue glanced at Su Xi's wrist, which was red and then turned bluish-purple, and his gaze darkened.
In the past, he would have crushed the man's wrist, but now he knew the woman didn't want him to get into trouble.
"Why did you go back on your word and refuse to have the surgery?"
The man's voice was calm, yet it carried a menacing pressure that made Feng Jinchen dare not refuse to answer his question.
"Don't pretend. I was right next to Su Xi when she made the call. You know perfectly well, so why ask me again?"
"So, if you're a match, you'll save Luo Chen without hesitation?"
"Is there even a question? I've said it countless times, but unfortunately I don't have one. If I did, I would even be willing to trade my life to save Luo Chen."
Feng Jinchen made a solemn vow; anyone who didn't know better would think he was the rarest brother-in-law in the world.
Su Xi felt only irony and bitterness. This man, besides his good looks and good family background, had nothing left but a silver tongue.
Even if such a person is cremated, there will still be a complete mouth among the bone fragments.
Feng Jue smiled. "In that case, we'll be at the hospital now. Please."
Feng Jinchen's eyes darted around. "Uncle, what do you mean by this?" He couldn't possibly want to vent Su Xi's anger by cutting his kidney.
"Didn't you understand? You're a match."
"I don't."
“You do. Just check with your special assistant, Wang Dong, and you'll find out.”
Feng Jinchen's eyes widened suddenly. Su Xi also abruptly raised her head, looking at Feng Jue in disbelief.
The man's jawline was smooth, and his profile was as sharp as nature's most perfect work of art. He was resolute and cold, and although he had no expression, he was as cold as ice that had stood for millennia, making Su Xi swallow the questions she wanted to ask.
She could only stare intently at the man.
"Uncle, do you think I don't know whether I'm a match or not? Are you trying to play me? Xixi has already been disappointed once, do you want her to be disappointed a second time?"
Su Xi unconsciously clenched her fists, her heart pounding wildly. She didn't know who to trust.
Instinctively, she felt she should trust Feng Jue, but she really couldn't bear another blow.
“I never let her down. If she is disappointed a second time, it only means that you have broken your promise again, are a habitual liar, and are not worthy of being a human being.”
"Uncle, don't speak too confidently, or you'll regret it." Feng Jinchen dialed Wang Dong's number directly. "I'm sending you a location. Show yourself in front of me within three minutes, or pack your bags and get out of here."
Although Wang Dong was innocent in the incident with Wu Yaoyao, it still planted a thorn in Feng Jinchen's side. He had long wanted to get rid of this pretty boy.
Just three minutes later, Wang Dong, covered in sweat and out of breath, ran out of the elevator, calling out, "President Feng... President Feng."
Wang Dong arrived just in time, panting heavily. He breathed a sigh of relief, only to find that Feng Jue and Su Xi were also there.
The thought of being in a hospital made Wang Dong's pupils shrink suddenly, and a bad premonition welled up in his heart.
"Wang Dong, tell me, am I a match or not?"
Feng Jinchen was smug and clearly confident.
Wang Dong's face turned deathly pale, and his eyes darted around, filled with panic.
"What? What's with that expression?" Feng Jinchen frowned, his eyes sharp as knives. "Are you hiding something from me? You have quite the nerve."
"Tell me, what exactly have you been doing behind my back?"
Wang Dong bent his knees and knelt down with a thud. "President Feng, I'm sorry. Bone marrow transplants are risky and will have some impact on your health. I'm just worried about your health."
I didn't want you to neglect your health and career for a woman like that, so... that's why I dared to suppress the fact that you were a match. I concealed it. I truly did it all for your own good, please forgive me this time, Mr. Feng."
Feng Jinchen stood there, completely stunned.
His first reaction was that Su Xi treated him worse than a secretary. At least Wang Dong cared about his health.
His second thought was that he had been tricked by Feng Jue. He had made such a firm statement, and now he was in a difficult situation, having no choice but to undergo surgery.
This was originally just a trick he used to deceive Su Xi, but unexpectedly it turned out to be true, and his words really came true.
It's all Wang Dong's fault.
"You have some nerve!" Feng Jinchen kicked Wang Dong to the ground.
He called the company and said, "Immediately send Wang Dong to Africa and have Wang Qiang take his place."
Wang Dong's face instantly turned ashen, like a wilted eggplant. "President Feng, please, please let me go. I'm really doing this for your own good."
Wang Dong rushed over and hugged Feng Jinchen's leg, looking up at him with tears welling up in his eyes, a grown man of seven feet tall.
Feng Jinchen felt goosebumps instantly rising on his skin. "Get out! If you say another word, it won't just be a trip to Africa. I'll make you regret ever being born."
Wang Dong trembled and could only release his thighs, his eyes filled with bitterness, like a stray dog.
Suddenly, he turned to Su Xi and said, “Miss Su, please say something for me. If I hadn’t found that evidence, Wu Yaoyao wouldn’t have been exposed, and you wouldn’t have been able to marry into the family again. Don’t you think so? I’m still your benefactor, you can’t just abandon me.”
Su Xi frowned; she hated moral blackmail the most.
Moreover, what Wang Dong said made no sense at all. If she really cared, she would not only not plead for him, but she would be magnanimous enough not to kick him while he was down.
A tall, slender figure silently blocked his way.
Feng Jue coldly uttered a single word, "Get lost."
Wang Dong shrank back, glanced at Feng Jinchen again, and realized that there was no way to turn things around. The last glimmer of hope at the end of the year had been extinguished, and he could only leave unwillingly.
Seeing Wang Dong get on the elevator and leave, Feng Jinchen suddenly felt a pang of regret.
He's such a fool. He should have used this as an excuse to go back to the company and deal with Wang Dong. Now that he's staying here, it's like being roasted over a fire, only able to wait for Feng Jue and Su Xi to morally blackmail him.
Sure enough, Su Xi looked at him intently, her voice soft and gentle, just like when they first became a couple, "Jinchen, I'm entrusting my brother to you. I just confirmed that Dr. Li Yu has prepared everything and can perform the surgery at any time. Could you go now?"
Feng Jinchen felt as if he had swallowed a fly; his thin lips twitched a few times, but he couldn't utter a single word.
The man's eyes flickered uncertainly. He was clearly very unwilling.
Su Xi pursed her lips, as if she had made up her mind, her eyes sincere, "Jinchen, I promise I will live a good life with you and I won't get a divorce. Even if... even if you make a mistake in a moment of confusion, I won't hold it against you. Is that okay?"
Feng Jue's eyes were cold and clear, as if she hadn't heard a single word of the woman's words, but her fists clenched slowly at her sides, and her knuckles creaked from the force.
Su Xi was completely focused on Feng Jinchen and paid no attention to anything else.
Feng Jinchen noticed this and sneered, "Su Xi, ask yourself if you can keep these promises? The man next to you is eyeing you covetously. With him interfering, even the strongest love will be broken up by him, won't it?"
"Don't worry, I swear, there is absolutely no possibility between me and President Feng."
"If oaths were effective, countless people would be killed every day. But at least it's a constraint, Uncle, you should also swear an oath. A solemn oath. Maybe I'll consider it."
Feng Jue sneered, lifting his eyelids to glance at Feng Jinchen, "You're ordering me around?"
Feng Jinchen's face stiffened. That tone and that look were as if he were looking at an ant as lowly as grass on the ground. It was simply too insulting.
Su Xi looked at Feng Jue, her wet, doe-like eyes glistening with tears. "President Feng, please make a vow, I'm begging you."
Feng Jue's icy aura suddenly burst forth as if it were free, and his fists clenched so tightly they cracked. But when his cold eyes met Su Xiqiu's tearful gaze, his expression softened.
Seeing Feng Jue's expression soften, Feng Jinchen's heart tightened. "Uncle, ordinary, meaningless vows don't count. You must swear that if you marry Su Xi or have anything to do with her, Su Xi will not live past 30. Your child will also die young. So, do you dare to swear?"
Feng Jinchen knew that Feng Jue didn't care about his life or death at all, which could be seen from his repeated visits to the hospital.
But Su Xi is very important to him, as is their child. Only these things can truly compel him to keep his promise.
Su Xi's breath hitched instantly. These vows were indeed very ominous and malicious. However, she and Feng Jue would no longer have anything to do with each other, so these vows were just empty words, and she didn't mind.
However, Feng Jue's peach blossom eyes were extremely cold.
"You're asking for it."
Feng Jinchen sneered, "If you can do it, all this is just a bunch of nonsense. What are you worried about? Or are you, as the president, going back on your word and trying to fool others with oaths?"
"If you don't dare to swear, it means you still have ulterior motives towards Su Xi. I won't have the surgery if that's the case. I'm not stupid enough to do something that benefits someone else."
Su Xi's heart leaped into her throat, pounding wildly with nervousness. She bit her lip and looked at Feng Jue, "President Feng, go ahead and send it. There are so many women in the world, you'll find one you like eventually. Stop bothering and toying with me, you're only hurting me."
Feng Jue's heart sank to the bottom. He knew very well that if he didn't swear an oath, even if Luo Chen died because of him, Su Xi would still not forgive him.
But he was truly unwilling to accept that making such a vow, which blocked all possibilities and hopes.
The scene fell into a brief stalemate. The silence was eerily quiet.
After leaving the hospital and getting into his car, Wang Dong still seemed shrouded in frost, as if everyone owed him money.
He thought Su Xi was a good person, but he didn't expect her to stand by and watch him die. Since that's the case, he won't let her get away with it.
He made a phone call, said a few words, and heard the shocking reaction on the other end. He knew that Su Xi was in big trouble.
It's just a trip to Africa. His cousin, Wang Qiang, is still at headquarters, occasionally whispering in President Feng's ear that he'll be back someday.
He will definitely not let that hypocritical woman, Su Xi, get away with it.
Hospital,
Seeing that Feng Jue was hesitant to make a vow, Su Xi's brows furrowed, her face tightened, and her eyes turned cold.
Meeting the woman's cold and indifferent eyes, Feng Jue smiled self-deprecatingly. Before the woman could speak, he moved his lips first.
