Free Web NovelChapter 1643: Chapter 1644: Born with a Not-So-Good Flaw
As for the success he had today, his son often said it was because his immediate superior thought very highly of him, so he was willing to entrust such a huge project to him.
He had thought his son’s boss would be an elderly or middle‑aged man, but he never expected him to be such a young, promising, handsome talent.
"I don’t know if you two are planning to have me ’marry’ your son?" Qin Feimo’s shocking words caught everyone in the ward off guard.
But his expressionless face held not a trace of warmth. It was obvious he wanted to shoulder all the responsibility, yet as a man, it was impossible for him to marry Xiang Jinnan.
"This..." Father Xiang paused too, at a loss for words at such ridiculous talk.
Both being men, how could there be talk of marriage.
"Qin Feimo..."
Looking at the man who had been protecting her ever since he walked in, Feng Jinglei felt a surge of emotion and excitement she had never felt before.
What happened to Xiang Jinnan had really blindsided her. She had no idea how to make it up to him, lying unconscious, or to his elderly parents. And at the moment when she was the most helpless, it was this man she had never even dared to dream of before who stepped in to shield her, to solve everything for her.
Qin Feimo glanced sideways, lowered his eyes, and met her dark pupils. "Leave it to me."
As soon as the words fell, he suddenly released her and walked toward Father and Mother Xiang sitting on the sofa.
Facing this distinguished man, Father Xiang was still a bit restrained and instinctively stood up as well.
The ward fell silent. No one knew what Qin Feimo was going to do.
And just as everyone was staring at him, Qin Feimo suddenly bowed deeply to Father and Mother Xiang!
Feng Jinglei froze, Chen Feng froze, everyone in the ward froze.
Who was Qin Feimo? No matter at home or in the business world, he had never bowed his head to anyone.
Yet at this moment, he put aside the pride he should have had and bowed to Xiang Jinnan’s parents...
"You two, I’m very sorry about this. You can ask for any compensation you want, but..." Facing Xiang Jinnan’s parents, he paused for a moment. "I was born with a not‑so‑good flaw: what’s mine, I never give to others."
The couple exchanged a look. It took them quite a while to understand that the "what’s mine" in his words referred to Feng Jinglei.
"And if we trace this incident back to the root, it’s indeed because when I was giving my fiancée a gift, I didn’t make it clear, which led her to mistakenly think the gift was from Director Xiang. This matter has nothing to do with her. I’ll bear all the consequences alone."
"Ha... so you plan to take all the blame for your fiancée? Don’t you dare—"
"Chen Feng!"
Seeing the situation starting to turn, Feng Chenlu panicked and was about to speak, but was cut off by Qin Feimo.
Her name being called out so suddenly, Chen Feng was dazed for half a second, then looked at Qin Feimo. "President Qin."
"Throw this noisy woman out!"
Chen Feng was stunned at first. He glanced at Feng Chenlu, then hurriedly dragged her away!
"What are you doing!? Let go, let go of me!"
"Miss, have you ever heard of M Group?"
Clutching Feng Chenlu’s sleeve, Chen Feng wore a look of utter disdain, yet he also wanted to crush this woman who didn’t know her own limits.
Feng Chenlu was still struggling when she suddenly heard "M Group" and couldn’t help but freeze for a moment. She lifted her eyes to look at Chen Feng.
"Judging from your reaction, you seem to know it." Chen Feng shot her a sidelong glance.
Of course she knew how prominent M Group’s status was in the business world. Even her father, who wanted to work with them, had been kept a thousand miles away from their door.
