Father Lin’s words were very straightforward and embarrassing.
Of course, Chen Feng couldn't make any promise to Lin's father on the spot. He was not his daughter's boyfriend in the first place. He was just helping out this time, and he didn't want to get himself involved.
Lin Yujiao glanced at Chen Feng, who was silent, and felt a little disappointed, but she still opened her mouth and said: "Dad, we are both divorced, and we are more cautious about remarriage. It is impossible that we just met each other not long ago.
Let’s talk about marriage right away. Even if he is willing, I won’t be so hasty.”
Hearing what his daughter said, Lin's father sighed and asked Chen Feng: "Where are you from? What are you doing now?"
Chen Feng answered honestly: "I am from Qingpu Town, and I work in Xiuzhou now."
"Work in Xiuzhou?" Father Lin frowned, "What kind of job specifically? How much can you earn in a year?"
Father Lin asked very directly. Country people are so simple when it comes to blind dates. Especially when they are married for the second time, they must pay more attention to how much income a man has in a year. There is no room for politeness and falsehood, and everything is straightforward.
"Working in finance, the annual income is about 200,000 yuan."
Of course Chen Feng said it was less, but he couldn't say it was too little. Otherwise, Father Lin would definitely beat the couple immediately.
Of course Father Lin didn't understand finance or anything like that, but with an annual income of 200,000 yuan, he was already a high-income group in the township. This made him quite satisfied, and the look he looked at Chen Feng became much more pleasing to the eye.
The somewhat mean Mother Lin is the same. She used to look at Chen Feng with a critical and indifferent look. Now when she heard about Chen Feng's income this year, her eyes and expression immediately softened.
"Where is your home in Qingpu Town? Is it from here in the town?" Lin asked in a gentle voice.
When the matter reached this stage, there was nothing that could not be said. Chen Feng answered honestly: "On this street."
"Oh, it's just on this street. What's your dad's name?" Father Lin took the conversation and asked further.
This was a necessary stage for a blind date. Chen Feng was speechless and could only bite the bullet and continue to answer: "My father's name is Chen Dayong. I heard that he is also a cousin to Yujiao's uncle."
"Chen Dayong?" Lin's father thought for a while, but he didn't have much impression. After all, the two towns were quite far apart, so it was impossible for them to know each other by such a coincidence. However, since he knew his brother-in-law and they were cousins, there was no problem.
, you will know if you ask later.
Father Lin went further and said, "That's it. When you have free time, our two families can meet and have a meal together."
This is really pressing step by step.
Even though Chen Feng had expected it before, when it came to the point where the parents of both parties were actually meeting for dinner, he was still a little nervous. He could only smile reluctantly, nodded and said, "Okay, let's meet one day when we are free."
Wu Mengting on the side was secretly worried. After the two parents met, the next step was to talk about marriage. Of course she didn't want this.
She wanted to explain the matter clearly, but as an outsider she really couldn't explain it clearly, so she could only follow along.
But she didn't want Chen Feng to continue chatting with Lin Yujiao's parents, so she said, "Brother, it's getting late. It's time to go back."
Chen Feng didn't want to talk to Father Lin and Mother Lin anymore. He couldn't really plan to be their son-in-law, right?
Therefore, he took advantage of the situation and smiled apologetically at the two old people and said, "I still have some things at home that I have to go back to deal with."
Father Lin didn't say anything, but Mother Lin asked curiously: "What do you call this girl? Is she your...sister?"
Chen Feng smiled and nodded quickly and said, "Auntie, you guessed it right. She is the god-sister I met in Xiuzhou. She is from the city. She came to play with us this time."
Wu Mengting also smiled and nodded to Mrs. Lin.
When Father Lin and Mother Lin heard Chen Feng's introduction, their expressions were obviously suspicious. The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.
Seeing this, Lin Yujiao came to the rescue and said: "Brother Feng, if you have anything to do, go back first. I have to send my parents back here too. It's getting dark and it's hard to drive the car."
"Okay." Chen Feng quickly agreed, "Then I'll go back first. I'll treat my uncle and aunt to dinner next time I have a chance."
After saying that, Chen Feng nodded to Father Lin and Mother Lin, turned around and left.
Wu Mengting quickly followed.
As soon as the two of them left, Lin's father frowned and asked unhappily: "Yujiao, are these two really brothers and sisters?"
Mother Lin said directly: "The way this girl looks at him, it's obvious that she's not a god-sister, but a lover-sister. Yujiao, isn't your boyfriend trying to tread two different paths?"
Lin Yujiao smiled bitterly and said: "She really likes Chen Feng and is chasing him. But Chen Feng didn't accept it and always regarded her as his sister."
Mother Lin was surprised and said: "How is this possible? Isn't this a lie to you? This girl is younger and more beautiful than you, so he doesn't like her?"
Although this was true, Lin Yujiao felt very uncomfortable when she heard it, and she pulled her face and stopped talking.
Father Lin said earnestly: "You have to think clearly. Although this Chen Feng looks pretty good, you have just met him. How much do you know about him? And he works in Xiuzhou. Does he have any plans to come back for development?
Now that he is in love with you, you can't live apart and have a long-distance relationship, right?"
Lin Yujiao held her tongue and said, "We have only known each other for a few days, and these matters have not been formally discussed yet."
Father Lin said: "Then you have to discuss it with him as soon as possible, otherwise, he should go to Xiuzhou after the New Year. What should you do?"
Lin's mother said: "I think Ah Jun is better. After all, he is so sincere and knows he is wrong. It's a pity that your relationship for several years has ended like this. Besides, this Chen Feng is her sister."
If it’s unclear, I don’t think it’s reliable.”
"Mom, if you keep doing this, I'm really angry." Lin Yujiao said unhappily, "I made it clear just now that Xu Jun and I will never get back together in this life, so just give up on this idea. Then
Don’t even think about the 200,000 yuan gift."
"How can you talk like a child?" Mother Lin said angrily, "Isn't this for your own good? The boyfriend you found is not reliable at all. You even said before that you would treat us to a five-star hotel.
We had dinner at a big hotel, and now, he ran away in the blink of an eye. And he has no clue about that girl. Are you so big-hearted, do you really believe that the girl is his god-sister?"
Lin's father also said: "Yujiao, it's not that your parents are greedy for money, it's that your boyfriend doesn't seem very reliable. Just now I asked him when he was going to get married? I stopped him in one sentence and he couldn't answer. Obviously he was thinking
He has no intention of marrying you.
Of course, I'm not advising you to break up with him, I just want you not to be deceived by him. Let's do this, you can date him for two months at most. After two months, you will get engaged and get married. If that doesn't work, you can go with him.
Ah Jun, please remarry."
What Father Lin said was very pertinent, and he was indeed considering it from Lin Yujiao's point of view.
Lin Yujiao knew her own family affairs, so she could only smile bitterly in her heart and promised: "Well, I will check with him first. If it is really inappropriate, I will definitely not hang him on his tree."
Father Lin nodded and said, "You just have to know what's going on."
Mother Lin said angrily: "I think she has no idea."
Lin Yujiao rolled her eyes at her.
…
Chen Feng took Wu Mengting into the car, and Wu Mengting couldn't help complaining: "Brother, you won't come with Yujiao for real, right?"
"How is that possible?" Chen Feng immediately denied, "You also know what happened. I couldn't help it. I was pushed into the trap. No matter what, Yujiao is my woman now. I can't keep watching her being harassed by her ex-husband.
I just want to cooperate and make the other party give up. But I don’t really want to talk about marriage with her."
"Her parents take her seriously, and if you tell yourself where you are from, they might go directly to your home. How will you explain it then?"
Chen Feng also had a headache about this, but he thought openly and said directly: "The soldiers will come to block the water and the earth will cover up. If we really come to the point of talking about marriage, the most we can do is break up with Yujiao."
Wu Mengting was stunned and said in surprise: "Are you willing to give up?"
Chen Feng smiled and said: "It's just a superficial breakup, secretly I can still continue to associate with her."
When Wu Mengting heard this, she couldn't help but muttered "scumbag" in her heart.
The next day, Chen Feng took Wu Mengting to play in Feiyun City, which they had agreed to do last night. Chen Feng had also made an appointment with Lin Yujiao, but she said she had something to do at home, so she didn't go together.
Chen Feng and Wu Mengting spent one day having fun at two scenic spots in Feiyun City, taking a lot of photos, and had a meal of farm food at noon, which tasted pretty good.
It was almost five o'clock in the afternoon before we set off home.
Today, because it was just herself and Chen Feng, Wu Mengting had a great time, humming along with the car music along the way.
When Chen Feng saw her happy, his mood also improved.
To be honest, it's really fun to have such a beautiful lady like her accompany me to travel around, eat and drink.
It's just that it's not good for the two of them to be alone together all the time. Chen Feng is really afraid that if one day he can't help it, he will give her to Huo Huo. In that case, he will definitely have a guilty conscience when he dies.
Therefore, after the car arrived at the county town, Chen Feng couldn't help but ask her when she planned to go home. It was already the twentieth of the twelfth lunar month, and the Chinese New Year was only a few days away.
Wu Mengting said she wanted to play for a few more days and go back around the 25th or 6th day of the twelfth lunar month.
Her expression was very natural, and she looked like she was determined by Chen Feng, which made Chen Feng speechless.
She originally looked like a quiet girl, but she didn't expect that now she would stay at his house with some shamelessness.
This is probably because the two of them traveled across the country together before. They got to know each other very well every day and night.
Moreover, Chen Feng also said that he would treat her as his own sister. Now she really treats him as a relative, living and eating in his home. Moreover, everyone in Chen Feng's family also loves her very much, especially the head of the family, Zhao Xiaolan.
Treating her as a daughter-in-law makes her feel more confident.
Since Wu Mengting said she would stay for a few more days, Chen Feng couldn't just drive her away. At most, he could only take Lin Yujiao with him when he goes out for fun in the future.
After returning home, Wu Mengting went to show courtesy to Zhao Xiaolan as soon as possible. This time she bought some souvenirs from the scenic spot and gave them to Zhao Xiaolan first. Then everyone in the other Chen family members had a share, especially the two younger ones, Wu Mengting
I bought two more dolls for them. The two little girls were so happy that they immediately pestered her "sister" and "sister" to play with them.
Zhao Xiaolan took the time to pull Chen Feng to a deserted area at the door, and asked with a bad face: "What's going on between you and that Yujiao who runs a clothing store?"
After Chen Feng was stunned for a moment, he immediately understood and said with some embarrassment: "I have no formal relationship with her, we are just friends."
"Friends?" Zhao Xiaolan looked suspicious, "Her aunt came to our house this morning and said that you are already boyfriend and girlfriend. She also asked me when I would be free to meet her parents."
Chen Feng smiled and said: "How should I put it? I am just getting closer to her now. Yujiao is being pushed by her family, so I have to pretend to be her boyfriend. You don't have to worry about this matter. If her aunt comes to ask again next time,
Just leave it to me and say it's none of my business."
"How is this okay? Her uncle is your father's cousin. The person you want to call his cousin is a relative. How can you make it okay if you don't give them an explanation? Tell me honestly, are you talking to this Yujiao?
Have you slept?"
Under his mother's gaze, Chen Feng couldn't help but blush, and said: "Mom, don't worry about this. Anyway, Yujiao and I are just putting on a show for her family. You can keep this a secret for us for the time being.
Yujiao and I will handle the matter... Ouch! Mom, why are you pinching me?"
"It's easy to screw you, you little bastard, you've become more and more of an asshole after getting divorced. You have a girlfriend over there and a god-sister over here. If that's not enough, you're hooking up with a divorced guy. You
Tell me, if you are so romantic, are you no longer my son?"
Zhao Xiaolan said and pinched Chen Feng a few more times.
Chen Feng quickly begged for mercy and said: "Mom, please calm down. Of course I am your son. I haven't done anything harmful to God. It's just that my luck has been better recently. Can you blame me? I don't want to do that either."
"You shameless person, why can't you imitate your father and your brother? They are so honest."
Chen Feng muttered: "Honest people suffer."
"Is this what I'm talking about?" Zhao Xiaolan glared at him fiercely and lowered her voice to warn, "I don't care about anything else. My mother likes Xiaoting very much, and she won't allow you to hurt her. If you really don't like her, just
Don't harm her. If you like her, don't be so carefree and flirt with her. Otherwise, I won't be able to spare you."
"Yes, yes, I will definitely not hurt her. I have always regarded her as my sister."
"Are you talking humanly? You still kiss your sister. She came straight to your house for you. Anyway, if you are sorry for her, I will never forgive you. Remember!"
"Yes, yes, I remember." Chen Feng agreed obediently, almost instinctively.
There is no doubt about the power of Mother's warning. Chen Feng was so frightened by her words that his legs weakened.
When he was a child, he often ate his mother's stir-fried pork on bamboo boards, so much so that he still has a psychological shadow. Whenever his mother gets angry and glares, he starts to tremble all over.
Of course, he is not the only one with this problem, his brother Chen Rui has the same symptoms, but more serious.
When she returned to the store, Wu Mengting immediately noticed the depressed look on Chen Feng's face, and was confused, but she couldn't ask questions in front of Zhao Xiaolan.
After everyone had dinner together, Wu Mengting and Zhao Xiaolan chatted in the kitchen for a while, then returned to the back room and took out their mobile phones to send a WeChat message to Chen Feng.
[What did your mother say when she dragged you out before? You have been wilting since then.]
Chen Feng happened to be chatting with Sun Xiaorui on WeChat in his room at this time. She happened to be shopping with friends outside and took a lot of street scenes for him and sent them to him.
Chen Feng glanced at Wu Mengting's WeChat account and couldn't help but ask: "Is it so obvious?"
[Obviously. You only ate one bowl of rice.]
It's true that after being lectured by his mother before, he was really not in a good mood. In addition, he had eaten a lot of farm food at noon, so he only had one bowl of rice for dinner, instead of at least two bowls before.
Ask yourself, he is a bit of a playboy now. But isn’t he suffering from a terminal illness, and he is also very rich. He enjoys himself in time and plays with a few more women before he dies. Everyone agrees with each other and it does not violate ethics and morals. It should not be counted.
Wrong.
But it is impossible to say what he did. No matter who hears his deeds, they will think that he is a scumbag, and his behavior is definitely not worth promoting and learning.
Now it seems that my mother has been brainwashed by Wu Mengting. Although she did not explicitly ask him to marry her, the meaning is obvious, but he cannot satisfy her wish.
Thinking about my illness again, even if I pass the New Year safely, I don't know how long I can live. It's strange that I feel so good.
Of course, it was difficult to tell Wu Mengting about his mental journey.
I could only type this: [My mother knew about Yujiao and I, so she gave me a scolding and said I was a philanderer.]
Wu Mengting immediately sent a gif of laughing and gloating, with the sentence: [You deserve it!]
Chen Feng felt depressed for a moment and sent a depressed expression.
Wu Mengting couldn't help but laugh happily when she saw this picture, and then typed: "Your mother didn't wrong you. She hooked up with Yujiao not long after you came back, and Sister Sun is still waiting for you over there. It's true that you are a playboy."
I didn’t accuse you wrongly.]
[She didn’t accuse me wrongly. But she also warned me that you were a good girl and asked me not to harm you.]
【real or fake?】
【you guess】
Wu Mengting sent a critical attack animation, and then typed: [Your mother obviously misunderstood you, so you are very depressed, right?]
[You can say that, but the main thing is that I suddenly realized that I am really a scumbag, and now there are scumbag women everywhere, and I have let down your true love]
[Don’t say that. You are a scumbag, but you are very principled. At least you didn’t deceive Sister Sun and Yujiao, and you didn’t deceive me either.]
【……Thank you for the compliment】
[This is not a compliment, just a matter of fact. And I don’t like how you are now, you know what I mean.]
【don't know】
Wu Mengting immediately sent an angry expression.
Chen Feng responded with a bared teeth expression and directly ended the chat.
Back to Sun Xiaorui, she sent Chen Feng a few street photos, and then asked: [I looked at Mengting's circle of friends today, did she go to your place and be with you?]
When Chen Feng saw the news, he didn't deny it: [How did you guess it? I don't seem to be in the photos she posted on WeChat. 】
[There is no photo of you, but she said she was playing in Feiyun City, so she couldn’t be alone, right? It’s very close to your home in Linnan County, so she couldn’t help but look for you, right? 】
[The inference is correct, but unfortunately there is no reward.]
[Really, I want to play with you too. Why don’t you agree? Do you think I will embarrass you if I go there? 】
[No. You are overthinking. You should know the reason. I don’t want to be forced to get married by my family.]
[What happened to Mengting in the past? Has she met your family? 】
Chen Feng couldn't answer immediately. However, she was not his girlfriend, and Chen Feng would not spoil her. He replied directly and rudely: "Can you be the same as her? She is now my recognized sister. If you want to
If you become my sister instead of your lover, I can help you.】
It took Sun Xiaorui a long time to reply: [Okay. She is different from me.]
[It’s good that you know. You and I are lovers, and she and I are brothers and sisters. You really don’t need to be jealous of her.]
[I’m not jealous of her. It’s just that I really want to visit your hometown. It doesn’t necessarily have to meet your family. I just want to visit your hometown with you and have fun. Just a day or two will do.
.]
Chen Feng still didn't let go, just perfunctory: "We'll talk about this later. We'll talk about it after the New Year, when I'm about to return to Xiuzhou"
【Oh well】
…
Early the next morning, Chen Feng, Wu Mengting, and Lin Yujiao exercised together again.
The three of them once again ran to the open-air exercise equipment to take a rest.
Wu Mengting took the initiative to mention Zhao Xiaolan to Lin Yujiao, saying that Zhao Xiaolan was very good to her and treated her as her own daughter, so much so that she didn't want to go back to her home.
She also said that Zhao Xiaolan already knew about her affair with Chen Feng and asked her how she planned to deal with it.
Lin Yujiao said nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter to me. It all depends on how Brother Feng handles it."
Chen Feng pretended to be depressed and said: "I did this just to help you, why did you push it to my side?"
Lin Yujiao said straightforwardly: "You are my man now? Shouldn't you stand up for me?"
This is... correct!
Chen Feng immediately couldn't refute.
Wu Mengting felt sour in her heart while listening, and couldn't help but say: "Actually, just explain the matter clearly. To be honest, you asked Brother Feng to pretend to be your boyfriend. In fact, you are just ordinary friends."
Lin Yujiao glanced at her and said nothing.
Chen Feng couldn't say that he had already explained it clearly to his mother, so he could only cough dryly and said: "I will handle this matter. Yujiao, if your parents force you again, just give them two hundred thousand yuan."
alright."
Lin Yujiao said angrily: "How can I have two hundred thousand?"
Chen Feng smiled and said, "I have it. I'll give it to you."
Lin Yujiao was stunned for a moment and then asked: "Then what should I say? That these two hundred thousand are your betrothal gift?"
Chen Feng smiled and said: "Let's just say that we two are filial to them."
Lin Yujiao was immediately moved and looked at him with such soft eyes that her eyes could overflow with tears.
This made Wu Mengting on the side feel very uncomfortable. She deliberately made the exercise equipment make a loud clang sound, startling the two of them.
Chen Feng glanced at Wu Mengting, who had a slightly serious face, turned to Lin Yujiao, and said jokingly: "Don't be moved, this money will be deducted from your salary."
