Chapter 432: Chapter 432: Enemies on a Narrow Road, Meeting on a Tight Path

Perhaps it was because Jiang Bei had never heard Fu Shinian say anything good about him, Jiang Bei was also stunned for a moment upon hearing his words, unbelievably looking at Fu Shinian:

"You... are you praising me?"

Fu Shinian smiled slightly:

"Yes, I sincerely want to express my gratitude to you."

These words were pleasant to Jiang Bei’s ears, but Jiang Bei did not relax his strict stance toward Fu Shinian, looking at him: "Don’t think that by saying nice things about me, I will let you off. My position remains the same, you must not do anything that hurts Susu, otherwise, I’m not done with you."

Fu Shinian glanced at Su Mu, smiled, and said nothing.

Qiao Yu was very quiet at the dinner table, hardly speaking from beginning to end, only whispering a few words to Fu Shinian every now and then. Su Mu did not pay much attention at first, but when she noticed, she suddenly remembered what Fu Shinian had told her—before Jiang Bei married Ji Nanfeng, she had asked Qiao Yu if he wanted to marry her, but Qiao Yu, for the sake of brotherhood, ultimately did not agree.

Seeing his evasive look towards Jiang Bei, Su Mu believed in his regret, but it was all too late, some things, some people, once missed, are missed for a lifetime.

Unexpectedly, during the lunchtime, Ji Nanfeng would be encountered. The four people in the private room did not have much chance to see who came in, but it just so happened that Fu Shinian went out to answer a phone call. As he was walking back after ending the call, Ji Nanfeng happened to come in, and the two greeted each other. Fu Shinian, looking at the pregnant woman beside Ji Nanfeng, chuckled quietly:

"I thought you were very busy recently, but you don’t seem to be."

The relationship between Ji Nanfeng and Fu Shinian could be gauged from a single sentence, Ji Nanfeng chuckled lightly, smiled at the woman beside him: "You go ahead, I’ll come to you shortly."

Though the woman was somewhat displeased, she still smiled politely at Fu Shinian and walked ahead with the waiter. Watching the woman leave, Ji Nanfeng was about to say something to Fu Shinian when Fu Shinian spoke up first:

"Do you know who I’m dining with today?"

Ji Nanfeng looked at him, and after a few seconds, he frowned:

"Jiang Bei is also here?"

"Everyone else can see things so clearly, why can’t you handle your own matters clearly?"

Ji Nanfeng chuckled lightly: "What about my handling is not clear? Do you think I would keep this child?"

"Whether you keep it or not is a matter for the Ji Family, I can’t interfere. But the longer you drag this out, the worse it is, for everyone. Isn’t bringing that woman out in public perhaps your so-called handling?"

Watching Fu Shinian, Ji Nanfeng was silent for a few seconds, then showed a bitter smile, without explaining much, he simply said:

"Since I’ve run into you, I’ll also go and say hello."

Fu Shinian did not stop him, but asked:

"How will you explain to Jiang Bei why you are here?"

Ji Nanfeng chuckled:

"Do you think even if I tell her explicitly, she will care?"

Fu Shinian watched him, but ultimately said nothing else, and turned back into the private room. Su Mu and Jiang Bei were talking. Hearing the sound of the door opening, they instinctively looked up and saw it was Fu Shinian, quickly turning their gaze away, but Jiang Bei paused upon inadvertently seeing the person behind him.

Jiang Bei was somewhat surprised by Ji Nanfeng’s arrival, she looked at him for a few seconds before asking:

"Why are you here too?"

"I had something to discuss with Qiao Na, and when I was outside, I ran into Shinian and learned you were here, so I came to say hello."

Su Mu did not know who Qiao Na was, but guessing from the expressions on Fu Shinian and Jiang Bei’s faces, she looked sternly at Ji Nanfeng who, with a smile, pulled up a chair and sat down:

"Usually, you would invite me when eating out, what happened today? Did you forget about me?"

Fu Shinian glanced at Ji Nanfeng without speaking, it was Jiang Bei who responded directly:

"Su Mu went to the hospital for a check-up this morning, and after eating, we are going back there. We are just having a quick bite."

Ji Nanfeng looked at Jiang Bei:

"When are you going home? Or are you planning never to return?"

Su Mu, hearing this, looked toward Jiang Bei, Ji Nanfeng saw this and slightly smiled:

"It seems your close friend doesn’t know that you have been living in a hotel all this time, does she? Ever since my news broke out, you have not returned home apart from packing your bags. You don’t answer my calls, don’t reply to my messages, and you avoid seeing me even when I come to your door. What do you want?"

Jiang Bei thought that even if there was no affection between her and Ji Nanfeng, at least some basic decency and understanding were necessary. She never expected Ji Nanfeng to reveal their current situation in front of so many people, and couldn’t help but look up at him, her gaze devoid of any warmth:

"Why are you looking at me like that? You can leave the house, but I can’t speak about it?"

Fu Shinian and Qiao Yu, having known Ji Nanfeng for many years, never thought he would be so aggressive toward a woman, but now he had done so, still toward his own wife. Fu Shinian did not interject as he felt Ji Nanfeng was being somewhat intentional, though he didn’t know why, it indeed made no sense to say such merciless words in front of their close friends. However, Qiao Yu couldn’t help but speak up:

"Am I hearing this wrong? The person who did wrong is obviously you, so why do you think you are in the right now?"

Ji Nanfeng licked his lips:

"I just made a mistake that any man could make, it’s not unforgivable. Even if she can’t accept it, she should stand in front of me and clarify things properly, so what’s going on now?"

Qiao Yu wanted to say something more, but Jiang Bei stopped him with a gesture, she looked at Ji Nanfeng, no longer aggressive as she was toward Fu Shinian, but just watching, emotionlessly:

"We’ll talk about our issues at home, now you go have lunch with your Qiao Na and don’t spoil our mood here, okay?"

"Are you sending me away?" Ji Nanfeng chuckled lightly: "You know Qiao Na too, since we’ve run into each other, why not have lunch together? I’ll call Qiao Na over, and we can all eat together."

Su Mu, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke:

"Ji Nanfeng, don’t go too far."

Fu Shinian glanced at Su Mu, then also spoke: "Do you really think today’s situation is appropriate for dining together? Even if you think it’s fitting, you should consider whether it would ruin our appetites. What status does she have? Does she deserve to sit at the same table with us? If you want to stay, fine, send that woman away, otherwise calling her over might not be respectful."

Ji Nanfeng remained still, leaned back in his chair, and after a few seconds of silence, he stood up from the chair, looking at everyone present, and lightly smiled:

"Alright, since that’s the case, I won’t disturb you any further. Enjoy your meal. I’ll pay the bill for you later."
