My Toxic Ex-Wife: BOSS, Stay Away！-Chapter 484 - 494 You’ve Gone Too Far!

Future granddaughter-in-law?

Shi Yi’s expression changed again and again, so dramatically that she never expected Feng Chengyu would not only fail to clarify the situation but also make it even more complicated.

She glanced at the defined large hand on her shoulder and tried to struggle, but the man’s strength was unexpectedly strong, like an unmovable wall of steel.

She angrily looked up, momentarily forgetting her fear of Feng Chengyu, glaring fiercely at the man beside her, signaling him to release her hand. However, the man ignored her resistance and said in a deep voice, "Grandma, Shi Yi and I have something to talk about, we’re going upstairs first."

Feng Chengyu’s seemingly casual words only added fuel to the fire.

The old woman, upon hearing that they were going upstairs, couldn’t help but let her imagination run wild. Her face immediately lit up with a smile. She chuckled and nodded, "Alright, alright, I know you young people find me, an old lady, a nuisance. Okay, I won’t disturb you young people’s ’communication,’ you go on up."

For some reason, Shi Yi felt that the word "communication" from the old lady’s mouth sounded weird, and the gaze the old lady gave them made Shi Yi feel all kinds of uncomfortable. She could bet that the old lady misunderstood Feng Chengyu’s meaning.

"Well, old lady, we are not..." Not boyfriend and girlfriend, they really had something serious to discuss upstairs, not what she imagined it to be.

Shi Yi tried to explain the situation clearly, but Feng Chengyu had no plans to give her a chance. Holding her, almost half dragging, he got her into the elevator. Only when the elevator doors closed did the restraint on Shi Yi’s shoulder loosen.

"Why did you lie to your grandmother and say I’m your girlfriend?"

Shi Yi glared at the man beside her. However, seeing the man calmly wiping his hands with a silk scarf made her anger surge.

"Mr. Feng, you’re truly ridiculous. If you dislike me so much, why did you lie to your grandmother and say I’m your girlfriend just now?"

The man merely glanced at her and said in a cold voice that filled the confined elevator, "Because I want to, got a problem?" 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Because I want to?

Shi Yi nearly choked on his words. Just as she was about to explode, the elevator door dinged open. The man had already stepped out with long strides before she could lose her temper.

Seeing the man so self-righteous, Shi Yi was so angry that she stomped her foot and then suddenly remembered she was still in the elevator. She had no choice but to follow his footsteps, winding through the corridor to his study.

Upon entering the study, high bookshelves came into view. Shi Yi noticed that besides the entrance wall, the other three walls were all lined with tall bookshelves. This study was practically a small library.

She could not have imagined a man like Feng Chengyu would have so many books. Does he even read all these? Or are they just for show?

Considering, Shi Yi thought it more likely the latter, after all, many people pretend to be cultured.

Perhaps the books had a calming effect, as Shi Yi felt her anger dissipate quite a bit after entering the study. She silently comforted herself that since she was returning to the United States tomorrow and would rarely have the chance to return to T City, let alone here, it was pointless to explain. The old lady would naturally understand she wasn’t the future granddaughter-in-law when she didn’t see her for a long time.

With that thought in mind, Shi Yi decided to get to the point, "Mr. Feng, now you should tell me why you brought me here."

"Do you still remember the agreement from four years ago?"

"Of course, I remember." Back then, she exchanged three matters for the lives of Song Yi, Chu Yan, and herself. Although it was inherently an unequal agreement, Shi Yi had always remembered the deal and honored her promise.

"What does Mr. Feng want me to do this time?" Shi Yi asked.

Feng Chengyu was not one to ask for favors for nothing, Shi Yi thought this time would be no exception.

Last time, he had her hack someone’s system, almost getting caught by the police and sinking into trouble. This time, the task likely wouldn’t be any simpler.

Thinking of that, Shi Yi added, "Mr. Feng, I indeed owe you three favors, but if it’s anything illegal, I won’t do it."

Having learned from past lessons, she treasured her hard-earned stable life and wanted no unnecessary trouble.

However, the man’s request this time was beyond her expectations.

"Be my girlfriend."

"..." Shi Yi was in disbelief, her eyes wide open, even her speech turned stammering, "You... what did you just say?"

The man raised his eyes and looked at her coldly, his thin lips parting, "I said, be my girlfriend."

"Mr. Feng, are you joking?" From his cold and arrogant tone, there was no trace of actually wanting her as a girlfriend.

Moreover, they had only met a handful of times, could be counted on one hand, and now he asked her to be his girlfriend, was this a joke?

Suddenly getting up from his executive chair, the man approached her, towering over her like an emperor of old. His lips, cold and sexy, curled up as he said, "I think Miss Shi misunderstood my meaning."

"It’s better be a misunderstanding," Shi Yi laughed softly.

"In front of my grandmother, you are my girlfriend. As for other occasions, I won’t insist."

Shi Yi finally understood his meaning, "You want me to pretend to be your girlfriend in front of your grandmother?"

"If that’s how you interpret it, then yes."

"Why me?" Shi Yi asked.

"My grandmother likes you."

"She’s only warm to me because I’m the first woman you brought here. If you bring more women, you’ll find it doesn’t really matter if it’s me. She just wants a granddaughter-in-law."

"I don’t like trouble."

Shi Yi rolled her eyes in frustration. His meaning was clear, he didn’t want to bring multiple women here, and since she gained his grandmother’s favor, it was her.

"But, I’m leaving for the United States tomorrow." Shi Yi played her trump card.

"I had someone cancel your flight." The man said expressionlessly.

"What?" Shi Yi almost screamed. She quickly checked her phone and indeed found her ticket had been canceled.

"You... you’re too much! How could you cancel my flight without permission? You’re bullying me!"

Righteous indignation filled Shi Yi, but the man remained calm, his sharp eyes narrowing as he looked at her face, "You want to go back on your word?"
