Chapter 1640: Chapter 1641: What Does Taking Responsibility Mean?
"What’s the deal with the gift?"
She raised her eyes again, meeting his dark and deep gaze.
Until after proving to Xiang Jinnan, she had also wondered if those earrings might have been from Qin Feimo. But she never found the opportunity to speak, fearing she was being overly sentimental again. She never proved whether the earrings were from her.
"It’s because when I was discharged from the hospital that day, I found a pair of earrings. I didn’t know who sent them, and that morning, Xiaoqi told me Jinnan had visited me, so I instinctively thought they were from him. I called him after being discharged, and then..." Thinking of everything that happened to Xiang Jinnan, Feng Jinglei lowered her head in guilt, "it brought disaster upon him."
Seeing her self-blaming demeanor, Qin Feimo’s eyes flashed with anger as he scrutinized everyone in the hospital room, "So, you called my fiancée here intending to hold her accountable and make her responsible for this matter?"
His eyes shot with coldness, clearly indicating their intention to interrogate!
Suddenly encountering such a gaze, Mr. and Mrs. Xiang were slightly shocked, unsure who this man was, but his strong presence suggested his identity and status were definitely extraordinary.
Is this indeed Jinglei’s fiancé from the wealthy family?
Before Xiang Jinnan’s parents could speak, Feng Chenlu, determined to seek justice and fairness, looked at Qin Feimo, "That’s right! She caused this trouble, so she must take full responsibility."
Qin Feimo’s sharp gaze flicked, "Oh? And how do you plan to hold her responsible?"
Meeting his cold eyes, Feng Chenlu hesitated slightly, unable to deny feeling intimidated.
She stammered for a few seconds, "Of course, she must be responsible to Brother Jinnan!" As she spoke, she glanced at the silent Feng Jinglei, "Brother Jinnan’s condition is all her doing, she ought to be responsible!"
"How do you propose she takes responsibility?" Qin Feimo’s voice deepened further as he stared at Feng Chenlu, his cold eyes devoid of warmth.
Feng Chenlu had never encountered such a powerful presence, as if one look could annihilate her, forcing her to retreat two steps.
She looked at Xiang Jinnan’s parents and then at Feng Jinglei, "Mr. and Mrs. Xiang are getting older. If Brother Jinnan never wakes up, shouldn’t she be obligated to care for them?"
Qin Feimo’s dark eyes narrowed dangerously, "You’re suggesting that my fiancée should fulfill Xiang Jinnan’s obligation of caring for his parents?"
"It’s not just that!" The real aim of Feng Chenlu indeed surfaced, "Brother Jinnan could have had a bright future and a wonderful family. All of it was ruined because of her. Shouldn’t she compensate him?"
Qin Feimo’s eyes squinted deeply, finally understanding this woman’s true motive.
"Enough, Feng Chenlu, isn’t it?"
Chen Feng couldn’t keep quiet and spoke up, not knowing if Feng Chenlu realized who Mr. Qin was. She actually intended for Jinglei to marry Jinnan and fulfill the obligation of caring for him and his parents? Was she planning moral leverage, forcing Jinglei to take responsibility?
Also, she liked Jinnan, didn’t she? Yet she was saying such things.
Facing Chen Feng, Feng Chenlu suddenly smiled, her eyes flashing slyly, "Did I say anything wrong? Are you not Brother Jinnan’s good friend? Don’t you think his brilliant youth has been destroyed by Feng Jinglei? Or is it because you also like her, and thus don’t want her to spend the rest of her life with a Brother Jinnan who may never wake?"
