Feast for Shengsheng

What does Chapter 842 mean?

"Sorry, I'm busy today. Wen Ning wants to eat homemade food for lunch, so I'm going to bring it to her," Zhou Yi said directly.

One sentence made Xu Jia's expression change, but she quickly regained her composure on the surface.

"Aren't you spoiling Wen Ning too much?" Xu Jia asked Zhou Yi, frowning. "Otherwise, why don't you have Wen Ning come along for lunch? I don't think there's anything wrong with that. Everyone has met her before."

"She doesn't like crowds," Zhou Yi said curtly.

“But if you’re going to marry her, she should know that social engagements are unavoidable.” Xu Jia’s tone was somewhat helpless.

"She doesn't need to socialize; she can just do what she likes."

"Zhou Yi—"

Seeing this, Xu Jia was anxious to say a few more words.

In the past, if Xu Jia mentioned this point, Zhou Yi would basically become resistant to Wen Ning.

But now, this method seems to be useless.

No matter what she said, Zhou Yi remained steadfastly on Wen Ning's side, completely unmoved.

Xu Jia was unwilling to accept this, but there was nothing she could do.

She couldn't make her point too obvious.

But Zhou Yi's words came calmly: "Xu Jia, I suddenly feel like, why do I always run into you every time Wen Ning and I are together? What a coincidence!"

The question was asked casually, but it carried a hint of accusation.

Xu Jia stammered, "You... what do you mean by that?"

“For example, I’m at a barbecue restaurant, and you and James happen to be there too. Or I go camping, and coincidentally, your team building trip is also here?” Zhou Yi casually gave two recent examples.

"I brought James along because he wanted to eat Guizhou hot pot. It was a team camping trip, and they suddenly wanted to go camping, so I couldn't really object. They could make the arrangements, and I just went along," Xu Jia replied calmly.

"Is that so?" Zhou Yi asked casually.

Knowing the truth, Zhou Yi didn't expose it; now is not the time.

But Xu Jia's attitude is enough to prove that he is lying.

Therefore, upon closer reflection, Zhou Yi's gaze grew increasingly somber as he reviewed the past events.

“Of course…” Xu Jia replied.

Zhou Yi simply hummed in agreement: "Okay. You can continue the meeting; I'm going back now."

After Zhou Yi finished speaking, he didn't linger and turned to leave the company.

This time, Xu Jia didn't dare to follow, and just stood there gloomily.

She's not stupid, which means Zhou Yi has his suspicions.

So, was Wen Ning instigating this?

Wen Ning is indeed much more difficult to deal with now than he was six years ago.

With a child between them, her chances of winning are even slimmer.

But Xu Jia wouldn't give up.

Having come this far, she won't give up easily.

The Xu family could no longer afford to abandon their responsibilities.

And what she has done over the years.

If I were to fall out with Zhou Yi, I'm afraid I'd be the one who ends up in trouble.

So how do we deal with Wen Ning, this stumbling block? And what about that child who suddenly appeared?

Xu Jia stood there, looking so heavy.

Suddenly, her phone vibrated. She glanced at the caller ID and quickly answered it.

“It’s me, tell me.” Xu Jia’s voice was very calm.

She walked toward her office while answering the phone.

"Is that so? That's great." Xu Jia chuckled.

Xu Jia then hung up the phone.

Looking at the phone that had just been hung up, Xu Jia's eyes revealed a sinister smile.

When she was lost and couldn't find her way, opportunity just came knocking on her door.

The doctor Wen Suisui needed for her surgery was none other than her own uncle.

Xu Jia's uncle is the one who likes her the most.

Xu Jia's uncle's surname is Lin.

His name is Lin Chunsheng.

He was among the first batch of medical students to study abroad, and he has been working in hospitals overseas ever since, performing cardiac surgery.

He is already a leading authority in cardiac surgery.

Zhou Yi's several surgeries when he was a child were performed by Lin Chunsheng's classmates.

However, this professor passed away from cancer some years ago.

Therefore, given Wen Suisui's surgery and the extreme measures taken three years ago, only Lin Chunsheng can perform it now.

Zhou Yi was determined to find Lin Chunsheng.

However, Lin Chunsheng and Xu Jia did not have much contact with the Lin family.

There is no other reason.

After Lin Chunsheng went abroad to study, he never returned.

The Lin family members cursed Lin Chunsheng for forgetting his roots and being a hypocrite.

After a while, Lin Chunsheng lost contact with the Lin family.

Not to mention contacting Xu Jia.

In a fit of anger, the Lin family even removed Lin Chunsheng from the family genealogy.

Therefore, Zhou Yi must find Lin Chunsheng, but he will not know what his relationship with Lin Chunsheng is.

This means Xu Jia has an extra trump card in his hand.

A trump card that can completely control Zhou Yi.

Xu Jia looked down at the documents in her hand; Wen Suisui's surgery had not yet reached the critical point.

Even if I wanted to do it now, I couldn't.

After all, the surgery when he was three years old was already too dangerous.

So Xu Jia estimated the time, and it turned out that everything was just right.

Once this contract is finalized, most of her assets can be transferred smoothly.

At that time, both the company and Zhou Yi will be his.

Even if Wen Ning were alive, what difference would it make?

Ah--

Xu Jia lowered her eyes and contacted Lin Chunsheng. Without needing to give a reason, Lin Chunsheng agreed to Xu Jia's request without hesitation.

After all, Xu Jia is Lin Chunsheng's most beloved niece.

Since Lin Chunsheng was never married, everything he owned was written in his will long ago, and it belonged to Xu Jia.

After receiving Lin Chunsheng's promise, Xu Jia was completely relieved.

Soon, she returned to the meeting room as if nothing had happened and continued the meeting.

……

There are still 10 minutes until lunchtime.

Wen Ning had just come out of the conference room.

She doesn't like to extend meeting time, nor does she like to delay everyone's departure time.

When Wen Ning came out, the assistant walked towards him with a smile: "Brother-in-law is here."

The assistants all call Wen Ning "Sister Ning" in private. The last time they asked Wen Ning if Zhou Yi was her boyfriend, Wen Ning did not deny it.

The assistant started calling Zhou Yi "brother-in-law" without asking.

Wen Ning hadn't even reacted when she heard this.

The assistant quickly added, "My brother-in-law brought lunch, so I won't order food for you."

After saying that, the assistant winked at Wen Ning and disappeared in a flash.

Wen Ning paused for a moment, remaining silent, but a slight smile appeared on her lips.

She knew that Zhou Yi would do what he promised.

However, Wen Ning also knew that it would be going too far to ask Zhou Yi to go back and cook for her.

After all, Zhou Yi is very busy; he's not someone who has nothing to do.

So when this person appeared before her with lunch, Wen Ning felt that she could accept food from anywhere.

Wen Ning walked towards the office.

When Wen Ning pushed open the door, she saw that Zhou Yi had already brought out lunch.

This is clearly not takeout; it was brought from home, and it's even in an insulated container.

"Did you go back to cook?" Wen Ning asked.
