Chapter 302: Madam Has the Final Say
Su Jin’s eyes filled with disgust when she heard Su Beijiang’s words. How shameless of him to actually go back on his own word. Su Jin refused to let Su Beijiang off the hook, so she said coldly,
“Is that so? But I took it seriously. Mr. Su Beijiang. I’m not your daughter. I’m only here to see my mom.”
Su Beijiang was furious when he heard this. Although he really wanted to sever ties with Su Jin, he couldn’t yet because he would not give up any opportunity to get close to a big shot like Xi Chenxiao. He looked at Su Jin and said angrily,
“Su Jin, how can you do this? No matter what, I’m still your dad. You unfilial daughter. I should have strangled you to death when you were born.”
Xi Chenxiao frowned when he heard Su Beijiang’s words. This old man actually dared to talk about his girl like that. He was simply courting death. He looked coldly at Su Beijiang and scolded,
!!
“Shut up. How dare you talk about my wife like that?”
Su Beijiang immediately shut his mouth. He couldn’t afford to offend a big shot like Xi Chenxiao or his life would be miserable. He might not even be able to beg for food. Su Jin wasn’t worth it.
When Su Jin saw Su Beijiang’s terrified look, she suddenly had an idea on how to save her mom. She looked at Xi Chenxiao with a gentle smile and said coquettishly,
“Hubby, can I take my mom home to live with us?”
When Xi Chenxiao saw Su Jin’s pleading look and how she called him “hubby” so intimately, the iceberg in his heart instantly melted. He would have given Su Jin the moon if she had asked for it then. He looked at Su Jin with a complicated expression, his body warm from excitement.
When Su Beijiang heard Su Jin’s words, he panicked. If Su Jin took her mom away, then Su Beijiang would really lose all control over Su Jin. If this crazy woman recovered, she might come back for revenge. So, he said quickly,
“No, Su Jin. You mom is still mentally unwell. She will bring you trouble if you take her home with you.”
Su Beijiang’s words brought Xi Chenxiao back to his senses. Xi Chenxiao slowly calmed his excitement and looked at Su Jin’s pleading expression. He said expressionlessly to Su Beijiang,
“Shut up. Madam has the final say in everything now.”
Su Jin’s worry eased when she heard this. She would be at wit’s end if Xi Chenxiao did not agree. She looked gratefully at Xi Chenxiao with a smile and said sweetly,
“Hubby, you’re so kind. Thank you.”
A hint of smile appeared on Xi Chenxiao’s usually cold face when he saw how happy Su Jin was. Then, the smile disappeared as he used his hand to tap Su Jin’s forehead and said playfully,
“If you really want to thank me, don’t just talk. Show me through your actions.”
Su Jin was still on cloud nine and didn’t understand what Xi Chenxiao meant at all. But when she thought back to how quickly Xi Chenxiao had agreed to her request, she should repay him and tell everyone that Xi Chenxiao was not a devil. He was instead a good person. She replied immediately,
“No problem. As long as I can fulfill your request, it won’t be a problem.”
When Xi Chenxiao heard this, there was a hint of a smile in his eyes. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly as he looked at Su Jin. This girl agreed so readily. When the time came, she had better not go back on her word. So, he said calmly,
“Then, we are agreed. We can’t go back on our word.”
Su Jin nodded vigorously. Why would she go back on her word? He had already helped her save her mom, so what else would she not agree to? Moreover, whatever his requests were, as long as she could do it, she would do it.
Su Beijiang was really angry when he saw this and wanted to lash out. Did they think he was dead? Taking his wife away without even asking his permission? But, fearful of Xi Chenxiao’s power, he suppressed his anger and said solemnly,
“Boss Xi, my wife can’t go home with you. She’s still in treatment. If you take her away like this, it will affect her ongoing treatment!”
Su Jin looked coldly at Su Beijiang. This old man actually wanted to imprison her mom and said such hypocritical things. It was really disgusting, Su Jin replied coldly,
“You don’t need to worry. Just mind your own business. My husband will find the best doctor for my mom, the kind that you won’t be able to find.”
