The Tempestuous Consort – Wilfully Pampered by the Beastly Highness Chapter 108 - Feng Xiuyu Can’t Do Anything Right

Chapter 108: Feng Xiuyu Can’t Do Anything Right
The first person to lose composure was Feng Xiuyu. She took a step forward and said in a commanding voice, “Say it. What poison was it? Once you tell us what poison it was, then search Feng Tianlan for it, and we’ll have both witnesses and concrete evidence.”
Hohoho! The chance had come to get rid of Feng Tianlan legally. The thought made Feng Xiuyu elated. She was going to light some firecrackers and have a celebration when she got home.
Feng Xiupei was better able to control her emotions, and she thought that the look Su Ji had given her earlier was to comfort her, so she pretended to be afraid of the results and stuttered, “Doctor Su, go ahead and say it. Even though I still…”
She did not finish her sentence, but it was clear to all the onlookers that she was going to say she was willing to take the rap for Feng Tianlan.
Seeing how Feng Xiupei was acting all kind and magnanimous, Su Ji looked at her even more strangely. Trying to judge the situation, he finally said, “The victim died because his cinnabar field exploded—not because he was poisoned.”
“Did you make a mistake?” The first person to raise her suspicions was Feng Xiuyu, who was unable to control herself. Immediately, she questioned Su Ji, “Doctor Su, why are you speaking up for Feng Tianlan? Did she bribe you? Or worse, did she sleep with you, and now you’ve fallen into this ugly woman’s trap?”
“Yu’er,” Feng Xiupei shouted angrily, then looked apologetically at the cold-faced Su Ji. “Doctor Su, Yu’er is very protective of me and isn’t good with words. Let me apologize to you on her behalf.”
This girl couldn’t do anything right and created even more trouble.
Feng Xiang and Xu Jiayi were also shocked. This was very different from what they had imagined. Wasn’t Doctor Su on their side?
They wanted to ask but could see that Doctor Su was angry, so they chose to remain silent.
“Does Third Miss think that everyone is like you, going around seducing others?” Su Ji mocked Feng Xiuyu without hesitation.
“Su Ji, you…”
Feng Xiupei quickly pulled Feng Xiuyu aside and said sternly, “Yu’er, don’t be rude! Quickly apologize!”
Su Ji didn’t care for her apology and continued pointedly, “You used an illegal pill during the battle and destroyed your cinnabar field but tried to frame your sister. This time, you’re even trying to smear me! I merely happened to pass by and have no dealings with First Miss. What do you mean by ‘she slept with me’? You are the one who slept with your future brother-in-law, and you dare to accuse me of something like that? If you don’t feel shame, then I feel it for you.”
Su Ji looked at Feng Xiupei, who was still bowing low and apologizing, and he couldn’t believe she was this sort of person. But the autopsy result had been obvious. Since this pill had initially been meant for Feng Tianlan, this meant that Feng Xiupei had intended to harm Feng Tianlan.
Whether this was her intention or not, he had no evidence. He did not want to bother about this matter. But this false allegation from Feng Xiuyu made him so angry that he had to speak up for himself.
“Su Ji, you old foge-…AH!” Feng Xiuyu cradled her cheek, which her father had just slapped. She looked up at Feng Xiang, and her eyes immediately teared up. She shouted angrily, “Father! Why did you hit me? He’s speaking up for Feng Tianlan and helping Feng Tianlan to get away with this crime! She…”
Before she could finish speaking, her other cheek was slapped. Feng Xiang was so angry that his hand was shaking, and his beard was quivering. “Shut your mouth.”
Feng Xiuyu immediately swelled up. She took a few steps back as she shouted, “You hit me? How dare you hit me? Just for some stupid Feng family treasure, you…”
“Yu’er!” Feng Xiupei and Xu Jiayi shouted at her in unison.
“Feng Xiuyu!” Feng Xiang was so angry that his eyes went bloodshot. He was ready to kill her.
