Sweet Wife Arrives: Mr. CEO, Please Pamper Me

Chapter 1038 - 84: Starlight Ablaze, Only True Affection Must Not Be Betrayed

Time seemed to have frozen still.If every argument between Feng Chengxuan and Li Zhi lately could pierce the hearts of the Feng Family with needle-like pain, trembling for a few seconds each time.

Then the action at this moment made everyone’s heart in the house collectively tremble.

Including Li Zhi!

Her fingers felt numb, the real force hitting her face also hurt her hands as she looked at her third brother, her lips quivering, "Why, why..."

Qiu Zhixuan always thought Li Zhi rushed over to argue with her, her thoughts all focused on her elder brother and Feng Yuxi, so she didn’t notice Li Zhi’s intentions immediately until she was firmly embraced by Cheng Jin, hearing that crisp sound.

She then lifted her gaze, slightly trembling, to look at Feng Chengjin’s reddened side face after being slapped.

Feng Jingguo gasped, Feng Chengjie frowned in distress looking at Feng Chengjin’s side face, and addressed Li Zhi with "You!"

Feng Chengjin said nothing, just lowered his gaze to see if his wife was injured. After realizing she was fine, he lifted his bright black eyes and looked at Li Zhi.

Those eyes were cold yet bright, with a penetrating coldness. If previously, Feng Chengjin’s gaze towards Li Zhi was considered chilly during those silent days.

At this moment, it was utterly icy like a Satan from Hell, a snow demon ready to tear the world apart!

Like frost and snow, Feng Chengjin spoke one word at a time, "Who does Sister-in-law want to hit?"

A simple question of five words, drawn like the most painful lash across Li Zhi’s face. In the entire family, she wouldn’t hit Feng Chengjin’s face!

After all these days, everyone in the family had talked, thinking about Feng Chengxuan’s situation with pity.

But the only one who would think more about Yu Xi was... Feng Chengjin.

This third brother was so good to her two children, perhaps only Li Zhi, who had lived in the Feng Family for twenty-six years, understood best!

But all of this was gone...

From the moment Feng Chengjin fell in love with a woman named Qiu Zhixuan, he couldn’t stand by her side anymore!

And at this moment, her irrational anger had completely marked the end of years of familial affection with her third brother, losing the last, and the only one who might have helped her and Yuxi!

Desperate and painful, Li Zhi couldn’t speak, feeling whatever she said would be pointless.

Finally, immense pain crushed her, and she withdrew her hand, grabbing her hair, screaming "Ah!" with agony, tears in her eyes, she quickly ran into her room.

Witnessing this, the silently observing vice housekeeper Ge An understood something.

Stepped forward, handing his resignation to Feng Chengjin.

Feng Chengjin glanced, knowing that Ge An, like Li Rui, had worked diligently for half a lifetime in the Feng Family, having started back in grandfather’s era, even for grandfather’s sake, he should stay.

But at this moment, Feng Chengjin didn’t want to say anything.

With a cold pull at his lip line, he nodded, casually uttering, "Please leave," granting the vice housekeeper Ge An the last of his dignity.

The atmosphere gradually calmed down in the Feng Family study room.

After a moment, with Wang Ma coming downstairs, timidly saying, "Sir, ma’am, the little master is hungry, crying now."

Feng Chengjin and Qiu Zhixuan exchanged a glance and went upstairs.

After feeding the child, they let Wang Ma take the child out.

At this moment, Qiu Zhixuan swiftly hugged Feng Chengjin, looking at his cheek.

This slap, indeed brutally administered by Li Zhi, was red and swollen, and not only that, the nails had left slight marks.

Qiu Zhixuan looked with a heart full of pain, holding Feng Chengjin’s face, at this moment she wasn’t sure whether she should say, "How could Sister-in-law do this to you! This time, I absolutely won’t let it slide!" or, "Cheng Jin, sorry... Ultimately, I caused you trouble!"

The complexity of her distress was something Feng Chengjin understood.

Seated on the sofa, with his wife holding his face—not to kiss—made him find it very amusing.

But more than anything, he felt pity and guilt for his wife.

With his brows tightly knitted, he said, "Was she this forceful that day she tried to hit you?"

Qiu Zhixuan understood what he meant, shook her head gently, "She didn’t hit me that day, elder brother blocked her, and the force wasn’t nearly as intense as today. Today you..."

Qiu Zhixuan felt even more heartache.

Feng Chengjin laughed, hugging his lovely wife’s waist, relieved about that day’s incident, grateful to his elder brother, said, "It’s okay, this slap doesn’t hurt as much as the one you gave me three years ago, which broke my heart for over two years, this slap will fade in a few days."

Seeing Feng Chengjin still referencing that year’s event as an example, Qiu Zhixuan felt both reassured and slightly guilty as she lowered her gaze.

But within less than three seconds, her chin was lifted by Feng Chengjin again, and with a gentle kiss, he touched lips softly, "Don’t always be so kind. I’m not in much pain. I say these words to mean that as long as it’s not you hitting me, it doesn’t matter who hits me. A man able to protect his wife, even enduring such hits is an honor and should be expected. You married me, if I still allow you to be hit, that’s true incompetence on my part."

This man, Feng Chengjin, when he speaks sweet words, always makes...

Qiu Zhixuan’s heart tremble, unsure whether she should be sad or smile moved.

Nevertheless, at this moment, because of his consolation, her heart calmed down.

Feng Chengjin curled his lips, observing her expression easing, then slowly said, "However, this incident is actually my fault, this slap I deserve it too."

Qiu Zhixuan paused, lifting her watery autumn eyes, slightly perplexed, "Your fault? What have you done wrong? It’s clearly Sister-in-law’s..."

Feng Chengjin smiled helplessly and said, "Sister-in-law is undeniably at fault, there’s no doubt about that. Her situation with elder brother is even more wrong, indescribably. She deserves it a thousand times, I support elder brother divorcing her to find his happiness. But my fault is, if I had told you about Monica’s matter earlier, perhaps you wouldn’t have gotten so angry upon discovering it under such circumstances and fall out completely with Sister-in-law. I despise Sister-in-law, but now the timing is not right..."

Qiu Zhixuan felt her heart tremble, sensing Feng Chengjin’s apology, her cheeks slightly flushed.

But understanding the meaning beneath Feng Chengjin’s words, she said, "You mean..."

Feng Chengjin nodded, smiling lightly, "I don’t like Sister-in-law, not since the day she married into the Feng Family. But since she’s legally my brother’s wife, she must be treated with respect. Initially, just like when I didn’t support elder brother’s marriage or sister’s divorce, this time, I approve of divorce but do not approve now..."

Facing Qiu Zhixuan’s trembling gaze.

Feng Chengjin paused, resolutely said, "There is one thing she said correctly, Yu Xi..."
