CHAPTER 291: CHAPTER 291

Jiang Weiwei could only temporarily abandon the idea of directly acquiring the necklace at this moment, and chatted and laughed with Wei Su, striving to become friends first.

She also planned to spend the next few days getting along well with Wei Su, and after winning her over, then purchase the necklace.

Jiang Weiwei chatted with Wei Su in the back garden for a long time, and before leaving, she said to Wei Su: "Miss Wei, I will be in Emperor City for the next few days. If you have time, I wonder if I could come over and chat with you again?"

Seeing that Wei Su did not directly agree, Jiang Weiwei added: "It’s not for any other reason, I just feel that I really get along well with Miss Wei, so I would like to be friends with you."

Wei Su smiled, her charming dimples fully visible: "Sure, Miss Jiang is always welcome to visit, I also feel that we have a lot in common!"

Then, Jiang Weiwei happily waved goodbye to Wei Su and left the Feng Family.

What Jiang Weiwei didn’t know was that the smiling Wei Su’s smile faded the moment she turned around.

"This tea art is truly masterful!"

After sighing lightly, Wei Su instructed her butler: "If anyone comes to inquire about the necklace in the next few days, tell them I have gone abroad to relax."

"Understood, Miss Wei," the butler replied.

Wei Su then returned to her room and took out the necklace from her jewelry box.

She liked this necklace very much, not only because it was valuable, but also because it was acquired by someone...

While Wei Su was lost in thought, her room door was suddenly knocked on.

Wei Su quickly put the necklace back and went to the door.

"Who is it?" Wei Su did not open the door directly but asked from behind it.

"It’s me, Miss Wei. About that necklace..." The butler’s voice came from the doorway, mentioning the necklace.

Wei Su felt inexplicably irritated: "Didn’t I say not to pay attention to anyone coming over? I’m not selling that necklace, it’s useless whoever comes."

The moment Wei Su finished speaking, the door was kicked open.

Wei Su was standing behind the door and was caught off guard.

The instant the door was kicked open, she too was affected and fell directly to the ground.

"How dare you create trouble at the Emperor City’s Feng Family’s residence? Do you believe..."

Wei Su was hit on the nose by the door and felt both pain and disarray, covering her nose and started to threaten the person at the door.

But when she clearly saw the person standing at the doorway, Wei Su couldn’t believe her eyes, even desperately scooting backwards, as if she was not seeing a person, but a ghost, a vengeful spirit returned from hell!

And it seemed that the person had anticipated Wei Su’s reaction, and directly stepped in.

"Feng, Feng Xi..." Wei Su kept her eyes fixed on Jiang Moxi, until she saw her shadow bathed in sunlight, confirming she was alive, and the fear seemed to subside quite a bit.

"Wei Su, feeling guilty? Betraying my brother and me, I thought you had no sense of guilt at all!"

Jiang Moxi’s eyes sparkled with brilliance, but the depths of her eyes were filled with the cold glint of Wei Su’s fear.

"Feng Xi, I didn’t betray you," Wei Su tried to explain to Jiang Moxi.

But Jiang Moxi didn’t want to hear her defense: "I didn’t come here specifically to listen to your stories. Hand over the necklace!"

Wei Su had already anticipated that Jiang Moxi was coming for the Emerald Necklace, but still pretended to be ignorant: "Necklace? What necklace?"

"The Emerald Necklace you took from me before." Jiang Moxi’s expression was cold.

"Feng Xi, that was a gift from you. There’s no taking back what has been given away," Wei Su extremely annoyed by Jiang Moxi’s commanding tone.

"Why can’t it be taken back? That was originally my belonging, it’s not up to you to dictate who I give it to."

"I won’t hand it over to you anyway!"

Wei Su frowned and said: "Where did you learn such unreasonable bad habits these past few years?"

"It’s all thanks to you, knowing full well that being too virtuous will definitely not end well!" Jiang Moxi retorted coldly.

Although her smile was cold, it looked incredibly beautiful when reflected in her deep, clear deer-like eyes.

Wei Su was rendered speechless by the retort, and simply fell silent.

But Jiang Moxi came specifically for the necklace, naturally not giving Wei Su a chance to stay quiet.

"Are you going to hand it over or not?" Jiang Moxi asked again.

"I won’t!" Wei Su thought, it was better to give the necklace to anyone else but Jiang Moxi.

As soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Moxi suddenly kicked her in the stomach.

The kick was so powerful that Wei Su slid several meters away until she hit the wall and stopped.

Wei Su clutched her stomach, her face white with pain.

Seeing the grim situation, the butler hurriedly stepped forward to intervene: "Miss Xi, let’s talk this through. Weren’t you and Miss Wei on good terms before?"

"You know that was in the past. Now... I only want to crush her into dust!"

Jiang Moxi stared coldly at Wei Su, her eyes dark and gloomy.

Whenever she saw Wei Su or heard her name, Jiang Moxi would recall the day, beneath the deafening explosion, the painful moans of her former friends.

Those sounds made Jiang Moxi want to tear Wei Su apart.

But she couldn’t.

The mastermind behind Wei Su had not yet been revealed, so Jiang Moxi had to keep her alive.

"The master will be here soon. Shall we wait for him to decide?" the butler suggested.

Wei Su had done favors for Feng Yu when he became the Feng Family Patriarch, and for the past few years, Feng Yu had given her a life almost equivalent to that Miss Xi had.

Thus, the butler was also worried that if Feng Yu found Wei Su injured when he arrived, they, the servants, might have trouble explaining.

But upon hearing that Feng Yu was coming, the coldness in Jiang Moxi’s eyes became more evident: "Didn’t you say he was in Yan City?"

Jiang Moxi had assumed Feng Yu was still in Yan City, which is why she had boldly come to the Feng Family to retrieve the necklace.

As the butler was about to reply, the melodic voice of Feng Yu came from behind: "There was a minor issue with a project these two days, so I came back to Emperor City to handle it. Xixi, don’t you want to see me at all?"

Feng Yu, tall and imposing, entered the room, filling it with a suffocating presence.

Wei Su hurriedly raised her head to look at Feng Yu, only to find that the man’s sharp features now bore a gentle smile.

However, his gaze remained fixed on Jiang Moxi, as if all his tenderness belonged solely to her.

In just a moment, Wei Su’s eyes also showed a hint of panic.

No...

Feng Yu couldn’t possibly have real feelings for Jiang Moxi.

He must be feigning, just as before, to dupe her and her brother.

While Wei Su forced herself to calm down, Jiang Moxi had already looked towards Feng Yu.

Seeing him again after four years, Feng Yu appeared even more exceptionally handsome, with a deadly allure that seemed bathed in blood.

Many women upon seeing him would become slightly dazed.

Just like Jiang Weiwei and Wei Su, who would stare at him in a trance.

But unlike them, when Jiang Moxi saw him, there was not the slightest flicker in her cool eyes.

"I’m just here to take back the necklace."

She didn’t respond to whether Feng Yu wanted to see her or not, her cold, indifferent demeanor driving him somewhat mad.

Still, he restrained his emotions and asked Jiang Moxi, "What necklace?"

Not wanting to be just a background in their conversation, Wei Su quickly spoke up: "An emerald necklace, she gave it to me before, but now she wants it back."

Wei Su’s prompt interjection was simply an attempt to get Feng Yu on her side.

But she never expected Feng Yu to directly order her, "Then give it back to her!"

Wei Su paused, her beautiful eyes staring at Feng Yu in disbelief, as if she couldn’t believe his decision.

She thought that Feng Yu’s previous doting and indulgence towards Jiang Moxi was a tactic to deceive her and her brother, a necessary act.

But now, even after Feng Yu had gained control over the entire Feng Family, why still...
