Chapter 222 Could You Help Me?
“But I don’t like her.”
Xi Chenxiao said it without any hesitation. This answer instantly cleared off the jealousy in Su Jin’s heart. At least, Devil Xi knew that he had a family and stuck to his own principles. That was great. Right then, Xi Shi said, “Miss Merlin said that if you’re willing to be with her, she’ll make her family work with us with more benefits.”
When Xi Chenxiao heard this, he looked at Xi Shi with anger in his eyes. He was extremely pissed. Hadn’t he made it clear enough? Couldn’t Xi Shi understand it?
He responded coldly, “What? Do I need a woman to help me earn money?”.
Xi Shi instantly felt threatened by that sentence. He had been working for the Chairman over these years, he knew Xi Chenxiaos’s temper very well. However, he shouldn’t let the Chairman get obsessed with this Little Mute. He muttered carefully,
“But Miss Merlin said that if you don’t be with her, her family will never ever work with us forever.” Xi Chenxiao impatiently put down the wine glass in his hand, his eyes filled with anger. This woman was so hard to deal with, she kept pestering him. With an icy tone, Xi Chenxiao said,
“Tell her that I’m already married. If she continues acting this way, then contact their family’s enemy, the Paul Family.”
When Xi Shi heard this, he looked at Su Jin unhappily. It was all because of this little trash. If it wasn’t for Su Jin, all these wouldn’t have happened. The wise and mighty Chairman wouldn’t have become like this too. With that, Xi Shi said,
“Chairman, did you forget? You’ve said that you want to hide the marriage, right?”
Xi Chenxiao looked at Su Jin at the side and pondered for a moment. There was a hint of determination in his eyes as he looked at Xi Shi. Whatever happened, happened. Xi Chenxiao replied,
“But I don’t want to hide it anymore.”
Xi Shi was speechless. Why was the Chairman so irrational? It was all because of that little trash. If the Chairman revealed that she was his wife, it would definitely become a joke to the outsiders. He asked in confusion,
“Chairman, can you tell me why?”
Xi Chenxiao was even more irritated when he heard this. How dare did Xi Shi question him? Had he lost his mind? Was he trying to get killed?
Xi Chenxiao said calmly, “Half a year’s salary.”
Xi Shi suddenly lost his curiosity after hearing that. Who in this world would go against money? Half a year’s salary was a huge sum. How could he waste it here? He wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and replied immediately.
“It’s okay, I will go tell Miss Merlin now.”
After Xi Shi left, Xi Chenxiao stood up and slowly walked towards Su Jin. Back then, this girl was still a mute. He was afraid that people in his family would disapprove of them, so he wanted to hide the marriage. But now, he could make it public since this girl was able to speak.
“Tonight, you’re Madam Xi. Come with me to the banquet.”
Su Jin hesitated for a moment. She then looked up at Xi Chenxiao who was like a prince. Wasn’t this guy afraid that people would criticize his partner? Did he just decide to make it public? After thinking for a moment, she said hesitantly,
“If you make it public, will you be affected?”
Xi Chenxiao shook his head. How could it affect him? Who would dare to comment on his partner? Su Jin was silent for a moment. She thought of her mother being trapped in the mental hospital, so she bit her lip and whispered,
“When we go back later, can we go to visit my mother together?” The last time she went home, Su Beijiang did not believe her at all although she had the marriage certificate. If she wanted to save her mother, she could only bring Xi Chenxiao back. That way, Su Beijiang would believe that she was married to Xi Chenxiao.
Before this, Xi Chenxiao would instantly turn down Su Jin’s request. Yet, Xi Chenxiao was very fond of Su Jin now. When he heard Su Jin’s words, he gave Su Jin a vague look. Then, he nodded.
Seeing that, Su Jin became extremely agitated. She looked at Xi Chenxiao gratefully. After all, if Xi Chenxiao did not agree, there was nothing she could do. She smiled sweetly at XI Chenxiao and said, “Thank you.”
“Thank you.”
