Almighty Sweet Queen is Really Rich!

Chapter 423: Chapter 423: When Will You Return My Blue Diamond?

Madam Feng looked at Mo Yu and gently smiled, saying, ”Long time no see.”

Mo Yu didn’t even spare her a glance, instead, he lowered his head and looked warmly at Su Li: ”Since it’s been confirmed that it’s not your fault, why don’t you go back with uncle first?”

Feng Huaijin’s expression changed slightly, he wanted to say something but swallowed it down.

Su Li came to the Ling house today to find him, dragged into a matter concerning the Feng family, perhaps it would be best for her to leave first with the elder.

But... his birthday celebration seemed to have vanished.

He hadn’t celebrated his birthday for nearly ten years, usually indifferent and unconcerned. But when Su Li said she wanted to celebrate it for him and even invited him to a mountain-top restaurant, his heart couldn’t help but anticipate.

Feng Huaijin lowered his eyes, suppressing a trace of darkness beneath them.

Su Li was slightly stunned, remembering today was Feng Huaijin’s 24th birthday, she immediately shook her head and said, ”No, I can’t leave.”

Mo Yu was taken aback, glanced coldly at Feng Huaijin, and repeated: ”Are you sure?”

Su Li smiled and said, ”Don’t worry, uncle. Since it has been proven that it wasn’t done by me, what need is there to worry about me? I can take care of myself.”

Mo Yu hesitated for a few seconds, nodded towards Xu Xing, and together they vanished into the night, disappearing from sight.

Madam Feng stared in the direction Mo Yu left for a long time, unable to return to her senses.

”I... What is happening to me?” A frail voice came from the sofa — the Family Head of the Feng family.

Everyone rushed forward, shouting and crying, offering pillows, asking with concern, Su Li watched with wide eyes.

The Feng family... truly has deep waters.

”Sir, Madam admitted she made you suffer like this...”

The Feng Family Head glanced at the smiling, gentle Madam Feng, coughed lightly and immediately scolded, ”I’m fine! I came to the Ling family today for Ci Ye’s betrothal, no other topics allowed!”

The Fifth Miss held her two daughters, looking at the Feng Family Head with grievance: ”But father, clearly...”

”Shut up!” The Feng Family Head’s gaze turned cold, his voice like a tiger’s roar.

Everyone was frightened and shrank their necks, not daring to speak further, but their hearts couldn’t help but grow resentful.

Father Ling had been watching the commotion for a while, stroked his beard in amazement and said: ”As long as nothing’s wrong, Brother Feng, as long as nothing’s wrong.”

Someone arranged for an ambulance, only then did everyone sit down again in the Ling family hall.

Feng Huaijin glanced disdainfully, lowered his head to look at Su Li, and said in a deep voice, ”Let’s leave first.”

Su Li immediately shook her head: ”Not too fast, let’s wait a bit longer!”

Just as Su Li finished speaking, she saw a servant take out a calendar, and the Feng Family Head said, ”Is there any auspicious day in the near half-year? Let’s choose a day for Fourth and Chen Yu to get engaged first.”

Ling Chenyu sat beside her father, blushing and smiling coquettishly.

The Feng Family Head looked at Ling Chenyu, seeing a necklace around her neck, the Heart of the Ocean pendant hidden within her clothing. He said indifferently, ”Since the token agreed upon that year is here, let’s pick a date then.”

Ling Chenyu breathed a sigh of relief, feeling slightly pleased inside.

Although it’s a trinket from a Taobao shop, as long as it helps her dodge this situation and get the engagement settled, that’s good.

The Feng and Ling Families pointed at the calendar, ”How about this day? Seems auspicious.”

”I think three months later on the seventh also looks good...”

Ling Chenyu sat obediently, her face red with shyness, occasionally stealing glances at Feng Ciye opposite her.

Feng Ciye remained quiet, picked up the teacup from the table, and drank.

A cold voice suddenly sounded throughout the hall: ”Miss Ling, when will you return my blue diamond you took?”

The whole room was shocked, some even looked at Su Li in bewilderment.

What blue diamond?
