Almighty Sweet Queen is Really Rich!
Chapter 1376: If You Betrayed Me, Then I Would Collapse"Miss Lu? What’s wrong?" Su Li was blind and couldn’t see, but Feng Huaijin, with his sight intact, noticed Lu Xiaomian looking somewhat distracted and asked.
Lu Xiaomian snapped back to reality, thought for a moment, and then said, "It’s nothing, just feeling a bit scared afterward."
Feng Huaijin turned to look at Su Li, raised an eyebrow, and smiled, "Afraid afterward? I don’t see her being afraid at all."
Su Li acted as if nothing had happened, remaining truly calm.
Her sightless eyes stared straight ahead, seemingly lost in thought.
Feng Huaijin gently wrapped his arm around her waist and whispered, "Su Li, let’s go back."
Su Li’s expression was somewhat subtle; she merely nodded.
Feng Huaijin had someone send Lu Xiaomian back, then took Su Li home.
Inside the car, it was quite dark. Su Li sat in her seat, suddenly reaching out to open the window. The autumn night’s cold wind rushed in, her strands of hair flying in the air.
Feng Huaijin lightly frowned, his tone somewhat reproachful, "Su Li, why are you letting the wind in at night?"
Su Li did not answer Feng Huaijin; instead, she asked, "What does it feel like to be betrayed by someone you always trusted?"
Feng Huaijin let the cold wind blow, his dark hair slightly disheveled, yet it made everyone in the car feel incredibly awake. Feng Huaijin pondered for a moment and replied, "Feng Huaimu? It’s alright. I was mentally prepared, so it wasn’t too upsetting."
Su Li lowered her head slightly, murmuring, "Really?"
Feng Huaijin suddenly reached out, grabbed her hand, and said, "Unless the person who betrayed me today was you, then I might break down."
For others, he wouldn’t have too much emotional turmoil.
People, especially adults, already have their own thoughts and are independent individuals.
Su Li seemed lost in thought upon hearing this.
Everyone is an independent individual; how can she expect others to be on her side too?
Think positively. As long as Feng Huaijin is there for her, that’s enough. As for others? She doesn’t dare to hope.
Feng Huaijin leaned over, his long arm reached out to help Su Li close the window, keeping out every bit of cold wind, then used his warm hand to hold hers, saying, "Su Li, right now, nothing else matters. Whether Feng Ciye can bring back the medicine from the auction is the most important thing."
Su Li heard this and felt agitated and somewhat irritable inside.
Xu Xing had recently been up the mountain, extensively renovating the pharmacy. Every medicine drawer was locked, and he alone had the key. Now, they were just waiting for Feng Ciye to return from Japan with the last ingredient.
Feng Huaijin said this, then took out his phone from his pocket and made a call to Feng Ciye, but it was still shut off and couldn’t connect.
He was probably still at the auction, not over yet.
Su Li also felt uneasy, truly afraid of not being able to get that medicine; she was really scared of losing her sight.
The vehicle finally arrived at the long-missed villa’s entrance. Feng Huaijin opened the car door and carried her back inside.
Feng Huaijin ignored the delighted elder butler, carrying Su Li up to the bedroom on the second floor.
"Have a proper rest, I’ll watch over you tonight." Feng Huaijin placed her on the bed, sat on the edge, and held Su Li’s hand.
Su Li sulkily asked, "You’re not sleeping?"
As soon as her head touched the pillow, she indeed felt a bit sleepy; her eyelids were starting to droop uncontrollably.
"I’m waiting for news from Feng Ciye." Feng Huaijin replied in a deep voice.
Tonight, Su Li was already physically and mentally exhausted, intending to sleep after washing up.
