Chapter 55 The Pregnant Belly Cannot Be Hidden
The phone was shattered into pieces, the screen broken on the floor. The man's face was extremely grim.
"President Feng, your health is the most important thing. If anyone offends you, just retaliate. It's not worth ruining your health by holding it in."
Wu Yaoyao, acting like the lady of the house, told Wang Dong to deal with the phone. She had clearly heard that Su Xi had caused trouble again.
It's possible that Feng Jinchen might divorce her in a fit of rage.
Thinking about it, Wu Yaoyao happily brewed a cup of coffee, let it cool to 70% hot, and presented it to him with both hands with a sweet smile, "President Feng, calm down."
Disgust flashed in Feng Jinchen's eyes, and he warned in a deep voice, "Just do your job as a secretary, don't get so close."
The doctor said that pregnant women should also exercise in moderation, which is why he agreed to take Wu Yaoyao with him on every business trip and give her three times the salary of a secretary.
Faced with the man's cold expression, Wu Yaoyao bit her lip, put down her coffee, and obediently took three steps back.
Wang Dong delivered the new phone and then left.
Picking up his phone, the man glanced coldly at the woman standing in his way, and said, "Get out."
If he could resist temptation, why couldn't Su Xi? Thinking of this, the man's irritation intensified.
Wu Yaoyao's flawless face almost cracked, her fingers clenched so tightly they turned white, and she had no choice but to leave the office.
Feng Jinchen called Feng Jue directly, repeating Feng Qinyue's words verbatim, and finally angrily questioned her.
"Uncle, you wouldn't really be after your niece-in-law, would you? There are so many women in the world, what exactly are you planning to do?"
Feng Jue had planned to sever all ties with Su Xi from then on, but he didn't expect to receive this phone call as soon as he arrived at his office.
The man's handsome features instantly turned icy cold, and a dangerous, oppressive aura was clearly transmitted through the phone line. "Feng Jinchen, you believe everything people say? Where's your brain? Did you hide away while humanity was evolving? I'm warning you, before you go crazy, ask yourself if you believe those kinds of things? Is it even possible?"
Feng Jinchen's imposing manner immediately diminished, and his grip on the phone tightened.
Involuntarily, I imagined Su Xi, alluring and charming, hooking her arm around her uncle's belt, her fragrant shoulders half-exposed, casting seductive glances and using every trick in the book to lure him into the storage room.
Just a quick thought of it made him shudder violently.
This is too bizarre and terrifying! Su Xi is quiet and innocent; she wouldn't do something like this.
If the younger brother-in-law didn't want to, he could have slapped the woman away. How could he possibly have been lured to a dark room by a woman?
This is completely unfounded; Feng Qinyue is talking nonsense, and it's infuriating that he actually believed it.
"Uncle, Qinyue did exaggerate, but you two were alone in the storage room for a long time. Is that alright?"
"Of course there's a problem. I just ran into Su Xi in the hallway and reminded her not to drink anymore, because if she gets taken advantage of by another man, it will be a disgrace to all the men in the Feng family."
Liu Cheng sent you a map that clearly shows it's impossible for anyone to enter or leave the storage room from the stairwell where Feng Qinyue is. Check the rest of the security footage yourself. If you try to act crazy in front of me again, you won't be able to handle the consequences.
He hung up the phone after saying that. Normally, he wouldn't argue with Feng Jinchen so much, but his behavior today was indeed inappropriate, and if not handled properly, it could damage Su Xi's reputation.
This was also the last time he would waste his time on that woman.
Putting down his phone, Feng Jinchen, his face cold and grim, ordered Wang Dong to review the surveillance footage. After watching the footage, the man's expression darkened even further.
What do you mean by disheveled? Su Xi's clothes are perfectly neat. As for her uncle's gloomy expression, that's true, but when has he ever looked well?
Clearly, Feng Qinyue not only lied, but also fabricated stories out of thin air, causing him to jump in front of Feng Jue like a monkey and be humiliated.
The man called Feng Qinyue directly and questioned her, "Feng Qinyue, when did you become a liar? You clearly didn't see two people enter the storage room, and you didn't see Su Xi's clothes were disheveled. Are you crazy? What exactly are you trying to do?"
Hearing her brother's harsh tone, Feng Qinyue felt wronged and intimidated, realizing he might slap her a few times if they were face-to-face. She could only tell the truth.
“Brother, I really didn’t see it, but you don’t necessarily have to see everything with your own eyes. I guarantee those two definitely went into the storage room, and there’s definitely something going on. Either Su Xi seduced him, or Uncle took the initiative, anyway…”
"Feng Qinyue, when did you become so despicable? You disgust me."
Not wanting to listen to the woman's nonsense, he hung up the phone immediately.
Feng Qinyue was furious. Nobody believed her when she told the truth these days?
The woman paced around the room a few times, her eyes hardening. "That bitch Su Xi," she thought, "I'll make sure my brother divorces her."
Su Xi did not return to her apartment, but went directly to the law firm to find Attorney Qian.
Attorney Qian has obtained evidence of Feng Jinchen's infidelity, having a mistress and an illegitimate child. "Miss Su, Mr. Feng is clearly at fault, but the Feng family's dream team of lawyers should not be underestimated. I am confident that I can get two or three percent of the family property."
"Okay." Su Xi was about to say something when she suddenly gagged a few times.
As a divorce lawyer, Attorney Qian was very sensitive to this. "Ms. Su, you're not pregnant, are you?" he said, pushing the warm water in front of the woman forward, his eyes filled with scrutiny and suspicion.
After taking a few sips of water to suppress the nausea, Su Xi said calmly, "Don't worry, the child is Feng Jinchen's, but I want to keep it a secret. The Feng family all thought I couldn't have children, so they had no suspicions at all."
Attorney Qian hesitated, "Of the three unfilial acts, the greatest is to have no offspring. If Miss Su conceals this child and admits that she cannot have children, I'm afraid I can only secure 10% of the family fortune."
Even a tenth of her family's assets would amount to over 10 billion, which would be more than enough. She would then arrange for her younger brother and grandmother to move to the capital. No matter how powerful the Feng family was, they wouldn't be able to do whatever they wanted in the capital.
“Okay.” Su Xi nodded and transferred another 500,000 yuan to Attorney Qian. “Prepare for the lawsuit. If we wait any longer, my pregnancy will be too obvious to hide.”
"I see."
The next day, upon arriving at Guangyao, Wu Xiaoyun hesitated several times, as if she had something to say.
Wu Qingluan reverted to her sharp and sarcastic demeanor, and compared to her apologetic self in the video, it makes one wonder if she might have some kind of mental illness.
Just as Su Xi was about to ask Wu Xiaoyun what she wanted to say, she was called to the manager's office by the assistant manager.
The moment she entered, she saw Shen Congxuan taking off his glasses and placing them on the table. Su Xi felt something was off, but couldn't quite put her finger on it.
"Su Xi, I have removed Wu Qingluan from her position as deputy team leader. From now on, Lu Fan will be the team leader for the overseas dispatch team."
We originally wanted you to take on this role, but you haven't been with the company long enough that a hasty promotion might cause controversy. However, the salary increase is doubled, and your abilities far exceed that offer. You'll have plenty of opportunities for promotion and raises in the future.
Finally, he asked, "Do you have any questions about my arrangements regarding this matter?"
Seeing Manager Chen's eager expression, Su Xi wasn't greedy and shook her head, "No."
As she came out of the office, Su Xi glanced at Wu Xiaoyun, then turned on her computer and smiled without looking at her, "Speak your mind, keep it short and sweet."
"Then I'll be blunt. The day you got drunk, you said in front of everyone... that Manager Shen was the most lewd."
What? Su Xi was instantly thunderstruck.
