Chapter 773: Chapter 771 Don’t act anymore_1

Hate, oh, hate!

I truly hate him so much!

Every cell, every pore in my body screams for his death!

"Mr. Xue is here, come in, come in!" Madam Zhao and Mr. Cheng warmly went over to greet him.

Both husband and wife’s eyes were filled with fawning and flattery.

The Xue family was amongst the top three powers in Capital City; there was no surprise they were sucking up to them.

"Uncle Cheng, good to see you, good to see you," Mr. Xue greeted them politely before striding over to Cheng Youyou, "Youyou, this is for you."

With those words, he placed the bouquet of bright, gorgeous roses into her arms.

The seductively red roses resembled fresh blood.

The vision of the dark red blood, shed during the violent removal of her kidney, once again surfaced before Cheng Youyou’s eyes.

After trembling slightly, she gripped the bouquet tightly in her hands and uttered a hoarse thank you, "Thank you."

Thank you for everything you have done to me, I will always remember!

And in return, I will repay you a thousandfold in the future!

"There’s no need for thanks between us, as long as you like it," Mr. Xue, oblivious to the girl’s odd behavior, smiled charmingly, his eyes full of tender affection.

Cheng Feifei was so envious that she almost ground her back teeth to bits.

This was her man, after all!

Fearing her daughter might cause a problem, Madam Zhao quickly pressed her hand to calm her, then called out, "Come on, let’s not all stand around, let’s eat!"

During the meal, Cheng Feifei kept picking food for Mr. Xue, "Xue, eat up."

"Thank you," Mr. Xue nodded politely.

Even though he and Cheng Feifei had been intimately involved for some time, he absolutely could not let it show in front of Cheng Youyou.

After all, he still needed to gain Cheng Youyou’s trust to get her kidney for his brother’s treatment.

Just as he was about to eat the dish Cheng Feifei had picked for him, Cheng Youyou suddenly said in a ghostly voice, "Feifei, you’re a grown woman now, how can you still be confused about familial titles? Mr. Xue is your future brother-in-law, not ’Xue’!"

In the past, Cheng Youyou didn’t care how Cheng Feifei called him, but now, she wanted to spite her!

Sure enough, Cheng Feifei’s complexion turned as ugly as if she had eaten feces.

Madam Zhao hurriedly pinched her under the table, and only then did she begrudgingly call Mr. Xue brother-in-law, with tears swirling in her eyes, as though she had been greatly aggrieved!

Mr. Xue tensed a little, nodding, "Your sister is right; soon, I will be engaged to your sister, it’s right for you to call me brother-in-law."

Even with him saying that, Cheng Feifei’s tears almost burst out, but under Mr. Xue’s warning gaze, she had to forcefully swallow them and continue eating with a suffocated fury.

As the meal was coming toward an end, Cheng Youyou was contemplating how to create an opportunity for the despicable couple to be alone, but unexpectedly, Cheng Feifei did it herself.

Suddenly, she put down her chopsticks, clutched her head, and said with a pained expression, "Dad, Mom, my head is spinning, I think I should go to the hospital to check."

"What’s wrong, you have a headache? Where’s the driver? Get the car ready!" Mr. Cheng quickly said nervously.

The housekeeper stepped forward to answer, "Sir, the driver took a sick leave today."

Cheng Youyou couldn’t help but let out a cold laugh in her heart.

Such a coincidence, and the fact that it involved a hair made her aware it was all someone’s arrangement.

"Then I’ll go," said Mr. Cheng as he put on his coat, ready to leave.

Although he wasn’t kind to Cheng Youyou, he was extremely affectionate to Cheng Feifei, after all, she was born from the woman he loved.

Upon hearing this, Cheng Feifei instantly became anxious.

She wasn’t really suffering from a headache; she just wanted some alone time with Mr. Xue. If her father interfered, then her whole plan would fall apart.

Just as she was getting flustered, her strategically-minded mother quickly came to the rescue: "My lord, you’ve worked all day. How could we trouble you to send her? I’ll just shamelessly ask Mr. Xue for his help."

"I wonder if Mr. Xue would be willing?" Madam Zhao looked at him expectantly.

Mr. Xue was naturally willing, but he had to put on a show in front of Cheng Youyou.

Therefore, he did not answer immediately but instead looked down at the girl beside him: "Youyou, what do you think?"

He looked at her affectionately, asking for her opinion, as if he listened to her in all matters.

Cheng Youyou certainly wouldn’t refuse such a fortuitous situation and nodded her head, even with a hint of urgency in her voice, "Since my sister is so seriously ill, then please, Mr. Xue, hurry and take her to the hospital to prevent anything from happening to her brain!"

Your brain is the one with problems!

Cheng Feifei clenched her teeth, almost spitting out a mouthful of blood.

But she couldn’t argue about it.

"Youyou has such a kind heart," Mr. Xue said, attempting to stroke her head, but Cheng Youyou subtly dodged his touch.

Mr. Xue couldn’t help but frown slightly, feeling that something was off with Cheng Youyou.

However, before he could think more about it, Cheng Feifei made a delicate call for attention. He no longer concerned himself with Cheng Youyou and quickly helped Madam Zhao escort her to the car.

Once the car had driven some distance away, Mr. Xue narrowed his eyes and glanced at the woman beside him, "Okay, stop acting. Tell me, what’s your scheme this time?"

As he spoke, the car stopped in a secluded spot.

The previously headache-stricken Cheng Feifei, who had appeared as if she could faint at any moment, suddenly returned to normal, wrapping herself around him like a vine with a flush on her cheeks and engaging coquettishly; nowhere was the sickly state from before to be seen: "I’m not plotting anything, Feifei just missed you!"

"Missed me for what?" The man’s lips curled into a smirk as he wrapped his arms around her, the glint from his glasses and the sly look in his eyes leaving no doubt about the young woman’s intended ploy.

Cheng Feifei let out an affectionate cry, raising her little fists to hit his chest, "Oh, Xue, you’re really annoying, always playing dumb... mmh!"

Soon, the car started to rock.

If anyone were around, they would have blushed at the scene inside the car.

The car wasn’t the end of it; shortly after, the two headed to a small grove nearby.

Once they were thoroughly done, Mr. Xue grabbed a cigarette, placing it between his lips and smoking.

Cheng Feifei snuggled in his arms, drawing circles with her finger and jealously said, "Xue, just thinking about you getting engaged to that woman, Cheng Youyou, in a few days makes my heart ache so much. Why do you have to get engaged to her?"

This question had troubled Cheng Feifei for a long time, and for the life of her, she couldn’t figure out what use Cheng Youyou could possibly have.

Perhaps because she had served him well, Mr. Xue took a drag of his cigarette and didn’t mind telling her, "It’s for her kidney, to save someone."

"Ah?" At this revelation, Cheng Feifei was momentarily stunned, clearly not expecting that reason.

But she quickly understood, "Is it because her kidney matches your sick sister’s?"
