Chapter 2210: Verbal Truth (31)

Chapter 2210: Chapter 2210: Verbal Truth (31)

Chuzheng crossed her arms and said calmly, "Even though the Cui Family has chosen you as the heir, from what I know, you still have quite a few siblings."

Cui Xianyu raised an eyebrow, "So what?"

Chuzheng: "I think they’d make good heirs too."

Cui Xianyu burst out laughing, "Miss Mo, are you always this humorous when you speak?"

After all he had been through, he finally became the heir.

She thought just saying someone else should be the heir would make it so?

Is this little girl that Fei Jiang raised really so naive?

Chuzheng looked quite serious, "Mr. Cui, there’s something you need to believe in."

"...What?"

"Where there’s a will, there’s a way."

Cui Xianyu: "..."

Cui Xianyu was somewhat unsettled by Chuzheng’s earnest and serious attitude.

But on second thought, there hadn’t been anything unusual lately.

"Miss Mo, although I quite admire you, if a person speaks out without understanding their place, it can be rather annoying."

Chuzheng nonchalantly replied, "Then, Mr. Cui, please await good news."

Chuzheng turned and left, taking a couple of steps before she saw Liu Jinli still standing there.

She went back, grabbed Liu Jinli by the collar, and dragged her away.

Cui Xianyu frowned as he watched them walk farther away, feeling a bit inexplicably uneasy.

He was just about to call his assistant to confirm, but the assistant called first.

"President Cui, something’s happened!"

A chill ran through Cui Xianyu’s heart.

-

Cui Xianyu walked out with a stern face and ran into Fei Jinxue halfway.

"Mr. Cui." Fei Jinxue’s face was pale as she blocked his path, "Help me, I don’t want to get engaged, the one I love is you..."

Cui Xianyu was in a hurry and didn’t have time to listen to Fei Jinxue.

"This is your family’s decision, I can’t help you."

Cui Xianyu tried to leave, but Fei Jinxue held onto him, refusing to let go, "Mr. Cui, only you can help me, it’s Mo Chuzheng who is using photos of us to blackmail me, it’s all her doing, Mr. Cui, you have to help me."

Cui Xianyu recalled what Chuzheng had said earlier, forming some suspicions.

"She’s using photos to threaten you?"

"Yes, she said if I dared to tell anyone, she’d post the photos online."

Fei Jinxue clung tightly to Cui Xianyu.

"As long as Mr. Cui is willing to help me, I’m willing to do anything." Now, she could even betray the Fei Family.

This was the message Fei Jinxue conveyed to Cui Xianyu.

Cui Xianyu pinched Fei Jinxue’s chin, "As long as you get engaged, the photos won’t be published, right?"

"But... but you’re in the photos too, aren’t you afraid..."

Cui Xianyu released her, caressing her cheek affectionately, "So you better not let her release the photos, or I won’t be kind to you either, after all, the photos I have are much clearer than hers."

Fei Jinxue stared at the man in front of her in shock.

What did he just say?

Cui Xianyu withdrew his hand, maintaining an aristocratic air as he congratulated, "Congratulations, Miss Fei, on your happy marriage."

The last bit of color drained from Fei Jinxue’s face.

Cui Xianyu...

—There’s not a single good person in the Cui Family, you must remember that!

Her grandfather’s words flashed through Fei Jinxue’s mind.

When she met Cui Xianyu, she thought her grandfather was wrong.

Cui Xianyu is good...

Good?

Is this what she thought was good?

-

Cui Xianyu approached Fei Jinxue from the start with an agenda, because she was naive and the old master’s beloved granddaughter.

Fei Jinxue’s wrongful accusation that Chuzheng was leaking information was orchestrated under Cui Xianyu’s guidance.

However...

Fei Jinxue messed up, alerting that lunatic Fei Jiang, making him suspicious of her.

Cui Xianyu had no real affection for Fei Jinxue, only a desire to use her.

Now, naturally, he wouldn’t get involved in this mess.

Besides...

Remembering the phone call, Cui Xianyu grew more serious.

If his project really went wrong, causing issues for the entire group, he would be guilty.

What would happen then is anyone’s guess.

Back at the company, Cui Xianyu immediately called a meeting.

After reviewing the report, Cui Xianyu’s face darkened, "Why hasn’t such a major issue been reported up until now?"

"President Cui, every time we checked, there were no problems..."

"Such a big problem, and it could be concealed? Where did the money go? What on earth have you been doing?!!"

No one in the conference room dared to make a sound.

Cui Xianyu forced himself to calm down, "Who is the person responsible?"

"Manager Zhuang..."

"Where is he?"

"Uh... Manager Zhuang... just mentioned an urgent matter and left in a hurry..."

Cui Xianyu: "..."

Leaving at this moment, isn’t it clear there’s a and traitor?

Cui Xianyu immediately ordered a search for Manager Zhuang, but it seemed he was well-prepared; he and his family had vanished without a trace.

What he left behind were all useless things.

In his anger, Cui Xianyu erupted in the meeting room.

Cui Xianyu had always been mild-tempered, and people in the company had almost never seen him lose his temper like this.

-

Elsewhere, Fei Jinxue stood numbly on stage, a young man beside her.

He had a handsome face, but from his actions and expressions, it was clear he wasn’t quite normal.

Finally, it ended, and Fei Jinxue turned to leave.

The man quickly followed.

"Hehehe, are you going to be my wife?"

"Why aren’t you talking to me?"

"Come play with me, won’t you?"

Listening to his foolish words, Fei Jinxue’s mood grew even more irritated, just wanting to get away from the idiot as soon as possible.

"Wife, wait for me."

"Play with me."

"I have so many fun things for you, look..."

"Can you be quiet!!"

Fei Jinxue shouted in anger.

The noisy sounds around suddenly disappeared.

Fei Jinxue’s chest heaved a couple of times as her gaze fell on her raised hand.

The person who had just stood in front of her was gone...

What did she do?

"Ah—"

"Son!!"

A scream came from somewhere, and then Fei Jinxue was pushed aside.

-

"Little one." Fei Jiang finished dealing with those people and came to find Chuzheng in the lounge.

"..."

Who are you calling little one?!

Annoyed!

Fei Jiang plopped down beside her, "Did you happen to talk to Cui Xianyu just now?"

"Yes."

"What did you say to him?" Fei Jiang asked with a slight smile.

Can’t I say whatever I want? Do I need to report to you? The Good Person Card must be overstepping!

Chuzheng replied expressionlessly, "Told him to keep his distance from you."

"Hmm?"

Why does that sound a bit off?

What do you mean keep him away?

What’s his relationship with Cui Xianyu?

Is the little one talking nonsense?

Fei Jiang’s thoughts were led astray by Chuzheng, and just when he wanted to return to the topic, someone knocked and came in.

"Sir... something happened outside."

Fei Jinxue had pushed someone from the Zhang family directly down the stairs.

The stairs weren’t high, but the person hit their head and fainted on the spot.

The person had already been sent to the hospital.

A perfectly good wedding feast ended this way.
