Chapter 146 Adult Men and Women Get What They Need

Fearing that the old lady might be too upset and have a relapse, Su Xi lowered her eyes and said, "Grandma, you misheard. It's just that the names sound similar. The matter has already been resolved."

The old lady had no doubts whatsoever, looking relieved. "I knew it," she said, "Jinchen is a rare good boy."

Su Xi looked away, her gaze darting away. Feng Jinchen really had some tricks up his sleeve; he had almost killed her grandmother several times, yet he still managed to maintain his "good guy" image.

Huang Sifeng also helped to smooth things over with a few words, and after coaxing the old lady to sleep, she took Su Xi to the corridor.

The woman looked at her with bright eyes, which puzzled Su Xi.

"Xiaoxi, Feng Jue is much better than Feng Jinchen. He's helping you with this and that, so he must be interested in you. How did you manage to get on his good side?"

Did you sleep with him? If you did, that's it. Men don't cherish what they have. They might just kick you aside one day and not care whether we live or die.

"So, your aunt will teach you how to cling to this powerful figure." Huang Sifeng enthusiastically pulled Su Xi along, appearing completely open and honest.

"You absolutely must not always satisfy his needs; you must know how to refuse appropriately. This is something that can't be explained in just a few words. Tell me about your interactions with him, and I'll figure something out."

In short, learning from me will definitely help you become his stable mistress, and he won't get tired of you even after three to five years.

You can't get a lifetime ticket because you can't have children.

Su Xi tugged at the corners of her lips, a bitter smile playing on her lips. So, in their eyes, she was only fit to be Feng Jue's mistress?

Does being unable to have children mean you can't keep a man for life?

Thinking back to their conversation in the car yesterday, Feng Jue clearly didn't intend to give her a legitimate identity. She was just being delusional.

Fortunately, she didn't have deep feelings for Feng Jue; she only had a slight liking for him.

Before marriage, this initial attraction would have been enough for her to pursue a romantic relationship with him regardless of the consequences. However, now that she has experienced betrayal and a failed marriage, the honor and lives of her family are tied to her, and she is also pregnant with her ex-husband's child. She wouldn't be so impulsive.

Adult men and women simply take what they need and use each other.

Seeing Su Xi's unpleasant expression, Huang Sifeng said awkwardly, "Don't blame your aunt for being blunt, I'm just stating the facts. There's no such thing as love in this world, don't be naive. Holding onto your money is the right thing to do."

"I see."

"You don't look too well. Your grandma is fine now, I can take care of her here. You should go back and rest, you have to go to work tomorrow."

After finally getting Su Xi off, Huang Sifeng pouted.

This woman clearly did it on purpose; she didn't mention she'd get 20 billion from the start. If she had known earlier, she wouldn't have said those things. Now she can only put on a smiling face and slowly salvage her image so she can hold onto the money eventually.

Watching Su Xi leave in her car from the window, Huang Sifeng woke up the caregiver, handed the old lady over to her, and then left.

Before dawn the next day, Huang Sifeng was sound asleep when she received a call from Grandma Su. She answered it irritably.

The old lady asked mysteriously, "Si Feng, do you think Su Xi has been switched at birth? I always feel that her personality is very different from before."

Huang Sifeng rubbed her eyes impatiently. The old lady was really getting senile. Her face showed disgust, but her words were gentle. "Mom, girls change a lot as they grow up. Can they still be the same as when they were little? Besides, can you switch babies and get the exact same one?"

After hanging up the phone, the old woman muttered to herself. "Something's not right. How could this be? Putting aside her character, how could the birthmark on her shoulder have suddenly disappeared?"

Liu Yufeng couldn't get in touch with Feng Hanhai and was restless all day, unable to sleep well. She called him again early the next morning, and this time he answered.

"Hey, why aren't you answering my calls? Our son's divorce is such a big deal, aren't you going to care?"

After a few seconds of silence on the other end, a muffled voice from inside the bed came through, "Mr. Feng, it's your call."

Liu Yufeng's heart skipped a beat. She knew this man had countless women outside, but hearing it in person still felt like a knife to her heart, and she broke down instantly.

"You shameless little slut, you're so young and all you think about is making quick money by spreading your legs. You can even sleep with an old man who's old enough to be your grandfather. Aren't you afraid of being played to death? If you're so hardworking, you might as well go make porn in Japan."

Liu Yufeng's eyes turned red with anger, and she choked up and couldn't say anything more.

A cold, indifferent voice came from the other end of the line, "Liu Yufeng, did you take your mouth out of a latrine? What's wrong with you so early in the morning? If you have something to say, say it; if not, get lost."

"Feng Hanhai, how could you do this to me? I remained chaste for you..."

"Have you no shame?" the man interrupted her. "You've been sleeping with your bodyguard, don't think I don't know."

Liu Yufeng's face stiffened. Feng Hanhai didn't come back for years at a time, and she had only been intimate with her bodyguard a few times, always very discreetly and carefully. Yet this man knew everything. He had been on guard against her all along; it was utterly despicable.

Taking a deep breath, she changed the subject, "Didn't you say Su Xi couldn't win? That she lost the case?"

"What? Didn't we give you leverage over Feng Jue? How can Su Xi, a helpless orphan, win your case?"

Liu Yufeng could only recount the events once.

Upon hearing this, Feng Hanhai laughed in anger, "You guys are really trash. You have such a good hand in your hands and you still let others take advantage of you. Fortunately, I know you two are stupid and have a backup plan. Don't worry, that woman won't get a single penny."

What exactly is it?

You'll find out then.

Liu Yufeng was about to ask another question when a man's coaxing voice came from the other end of the line, "Ruoyan, don't be angry. How about I make that old woman apologize to you?"

Making the wife apologize to the mistress? How could that old geezer even think of that? Liu Yufeng was furious and hung up the phone immediately.

Su Xi walked to Guangyao. She hadn't slept well the night before, and her mind was a little foggy.

Fortunately, the work was something she was good at, so she handled it with ease.

Unbeknownst to her, a piece of negative gossip about her was spreading like wildfire in the Feng Group's large group chat and was rapidly reaching Guangyao.

Su Xi got up to get a drink of water, and several colleagues in the break room looked her up and down with strange and disdainful eyes.

"Su Xi, you went to Feng's on a business trip for less than half a month and shamelessly became someone's mistress. You have completely disgraced Guangyao."

"Yes, it's true that one bad apple spoils the whole bunch. Now the Feng family is mocking our Guangyao for not having any men, which is why you're so desperate for them."

They even said all the women in our Guangyao Sect are vixens! It infuriates me! Su Xi, how could you be so wanton? It's one thing for you to be promiscuous, but you've caused us so much suffering!"

A woman glared fiercely at Su Xi, "You slut, do you know that my boyfriend from the Feng family, whom I finally managed to date, just broke up with me? It's all because of you."

You, a homewrecker who destroys other people's relationships and interferes in their marriages, should get out of Guangyao. How dare you still stand here?

As the woman spoke, she went over and shoved Su Xi, her expression contorted with rage.
