After Transmigrating as a Tycoon’s Wife, My Thoughts Are Heard by the Whole Family

Chapter 32

Ji Fei smiled and said, "Qin Zhao just lost his temper a bit. I was there at the time, and I believe you were startled and that's why you couldn't react."

Cao Ya choked, her tears stopped, she didn't expect Ji Fei to speak for her.

Didn't she start all this? Was it a pang of conscience?

But the next second she heard Ji Fei say, "After all, anyone with a brain and eyes knows that Chu Xinyue would never fancy that kind of guy. Chu Xinyue doesn't have strange tastes. She wouldn't even fancy celebrities, let alone ugly men. And she's not masochistic, she would definitely avoid a violent man. So you surely know that Chu Xinyue doesn't fancy your ex-boyfriend."

"Although as the saying goes, 'same feather flock together', I believe you and your ex are fundamentally different. Just because your ex fantasizes about other men stealing his girlfriend, doesn’t mean you enjoy imagining other women stealing your boyfriend. If your boyfriend is sick, you certainly are not."

Cao Ya was shocked, and finally, her emotions collapsed, and she started crying.

"Hey, why are you crying? Aren't I speaking on your behalf? Or does your head have too much 'water' in it and it's overflowing? After all, it should be Chu Xinyue who cries. She was innocently helping, but out of nowhere, she was being slandered. Isn't that innocent?" Ji Fei continued to twist the knife.

The three researchers were all stunned, the two men couldn't hold back their laughter.

"Miss Ji, you are really... straightforward," the female researcher awkwardly tried to mediate, or else they would attract onlookers.

Ji Fei shrugged innocently.

"You need to be straightforward to clear up any confusion. If there is still a thorn in your heart, it's not good. For someone that you are familiar with, it's hard to speak up, but for a stranger like me, it doesn't matter."

One should not be indirect with this kind of person, dealing with it privately is even more unacceptable. She had to publicly point out Cao Ya's self-centered fantasies, let Cao Ya face her ridiculous thoughts directly. Don't turn around and find various excuses to imagine, insisting on creating an imaginary enemy to highlight their love.

Somehow, she felt that Cao Ya would do such a thing.

"Chu Xinyue, in case of any misunderstandings, why don't you reiterate your stance again."

Chu Xinyue frowned at the pitiful crying Cao Ya and slowly said, "To avoid any misunderstandings, anything about you and him, please do not mention again in my presence. I only feel one way towards your ex-boyfriend, and that is disgust. So you can be assured."

Chu Xinyue's words were like a slap to Cao Ya's face.

Cao Ya suddenly hit rock bottom, anger surged, all because Kang Zhi had a slight misunderstanding and she had some doubts, was it really necessary to press her like this?

Chu Xinyue stood high and mighty, so was she just a weed to be scolded and humiliated like that?

"Xinyue, this is just a misunderstanding, we could have cleared this up, why be so pressing? And let outsiders mock me like this, aren't we friends?"

"From now on, it's not the same anymore. I won't be friends with those who offend me." Chu Xinyue spoke without hesitation. From the moment her life began anew, she had made all her decisions with loving herself as the top priority. She wouldn't compromise for anyone anymore.

Cao Ya's face froze directly, and in the end, she ran away crying.

She probably didn't expect to end their friendship so abruptly.

Everyone else was quite awkward.

"Although Cao Ya went too far, we are still a team, how are we going to get along in the future?" someone complained.

"Is her position in your research project irreplaceable?" Qin Zhao asked.

"Not really, she's basically just our assistant."

"Then get rid of her," Qin Zhao said coldly. "Keeping such people around will only bring trouble to you."

"This..." Everyone was hesitant, after all, they had been together for a quite long time.

Qin Zhao had made up his mind. As an investor, couldn't he decide on someone insignificant like this?

He wouldn't tolerate this kind of person disturbing Chu Xinyue.

Qin Zhao had found the right way to influence as a wealthy investor.

He was determined to talk to their professor to clarify the situation optimally hinting to keep the research project domestically.

Under Qin Zhao's urging, others got in touch with the professor, only to find out he had already retired to his hotel room for the day.

Out of respect, Qin Zhao decided to visit the professor in the morning.

As it was getting late, they all walked to another building.

On their way, they ran into Cao Ya, who had been arguing with Kang Zhi.

From afar, they couldn't hear the words of their quarrel, but they heard Cao Ya yell, "Because of your big mouth, Xinyue and I had a fallout! How will I stay in the team now! They are right, you are just an obsessing maniac, trying to monopolize me, leaving me all alone! We break up, for good this time!"

After her words, Cao Ya ran off crying, ignoring the presence of the others.

When Kang Zhi chased after her, he bumped into them directly.

His eyes, filled with red veins, swept over them viciously, pausing for a moment particularly on Chu Xinyue.

Qin Zhao was immediately provoked by that gaze. Just as he was about to rush forward, Kang Zhi turned around and ran, not giving Qin Zhao a chance.

"Keep an eye out during this period. I think this guy is dangerous," Qin Zhao warned.

"Actually, without Cao Ya, we wouldn't have a chance to contact him at all," someone quipped.

"Let's go." Chu Xinyue was not interested in others' affairs anymore and led the way into the elevator.

When everyone had entered, the person who had pressed the elevator button asked, "Which floor are you staying?"

Qin Zhao promptly replied, "Seventeenth floor!"

Others exclaimed in surprise, "Such a coincidence?"

Chu Xinyue frowned at Qin Zhao, a feeling of rejection growing in her eyes.

Qin Zhao felt guilty, of course, it was a coincidence as he had investigated beforehand. Yet, he nodded firmly, "Yeah, this is the only floor left with rooms."

When others asked Ji Fei, just as she was thinking of her response, Qin Zhao replied, "Same."

Qin Zhao had a little plan in mind, if Ji Fei too stayed on the same floor, maybe Chu Xinyue's dislike towards him would reduce somewhat.

Everyone was astonished, such a coincidence?

Ji Fei: ?

Ji Fei raised an eyebrow at Qin Zhao.

Probably fearing that Ji Fei would not cooperate and refute on the spot, Qin Zhao immediately took out his cellphone and pretended, "Second Sister-in-law, Gao Ge just told me, there was a small issue with your room, so it's been temporarily moved to the 17th floor."

After that, he shoved his cellphone screen in front of Ji Fei's face.

It was the money transfer screen.

Five hundred thousand!

Ding! Transaction successful!

Anyway, Second Brother had said, Ji Fei loves money, this weakness should make her cooperate.

Actually, what Qin Xian said was that Ji Fei loved money. To show his thanks, he just needed to give her a red packet.

As expected, they heard Ji Fei say: "What a coincidence, haha, I'm also staying on the 17th floor, didn't expect you guys to be here too. We're all familiar faces, let's have supper together later?"

Qin Zhao had just breathed a sigh of relief, but then he heard Ji Fei's mischievous laughter.

?What a big sucker, haha! I had planned to say I was staying on the 17th floor from the get-go. Observing this wife-chasing drama up close, I wouldn't be able to sleep anyway if I went home! Does this count as me taking advantage and pretending to be innocent, haha.?

Qin Zhao gasped dramatically, swallowing a mouthful of blood. How could he forget Ji Fei's nature that loved to join in the fun?!

The elevator doors slowly closed, but a person burst out of the corner of the hall. They missed the elevator and could only stand there dumbly as the elevator stopped at the 17th floor.
