After my divorce, I started to have good luck

Chapter 232: Chapter 149: Big Brother Comes Knocking

The next morning, the three of them ran together again, and while resting at the outdoor exercise equipment, they chatted together.

Lin Yujiao said that starting from today, she wouldn’t open the shop anymore and would begin closing it down since there wasn’t much business anyway.

Chen Feng said that Qingpu Town didn’t have enough people, and with online shopping being so convenient these days, it was normal for her clothing store to struggle. If she intended to open a store in the county town, he could help.

Lin Yujiao was hesitant and said they’d talk about it after the New Year.

On the other hand, Wu Mengting told Chen Feng to get ready. After lunch, they would go back and meet her parents together.

Chen Feng felt a bit strange inside, as if he had neglected something, but since he was going over there as her sworn brother, it seemed perfectly fine to help talk to her parents about not pressuring her into arranged dates.

On their way back, Lin Yujiao couldn’t help but ask, "Isn’t it going to cause a misunderstanding for you two to go home and meet the parents like this?"

Wu Mengting hurriedly said, "Of course not. I’ve already made it clear to my parents. I told them my brother is a good friend I met in Xiu Zhou, my sworn brother, who has taken great care of me there."

Having heard Wu Mengting say this, Chen Feng also felt relieved.

Since Chen Feng didn’t say anything, Lin Yujiao naturally didn’t say anything further.

In reality, Wu Mengting had indeed made things clear to her parents the night before. She told them her heart was already taken, and that person was Chen Feng. They met in Xiu Zhou, and Chen Feng had taken great care of her. They had even traveled across the country together recently, and understood each other very well. Her feelings for him were deep-rooted.

This time coming to Lin Nan County, she also took the opportunity to visit Chen Feng’s house. His family was very cordial, and she got along remarkably well with his mother, having a great chat.

Then, under her parents’ pressing questions, Wu Mengting also honestly shared some of Chen Feng’s personal information, such as being seven years older than her, divorced, but without any children.

Another very practical concern was that Chen Feng was quite wealthy, with a net worth estimated in the tens of millions, possibly even over a hundred million. The most convincing evidence was the mansion worth over ten million that he had bought in Xiu Zhou.

The issue now was, Chen Feng had no intention of developing things further with her and saw her as a sister.

Her parents, of course, were very dissatisfied and worried about this. Dissatisfied because their daughter was so beautiful and excellent, and there was still a man who didn’t appreciate her? To them, it felt like he was truly blind.

But hearing that their daughter planned to pursue this man, it didn’t sit well with them, and they worried she might get hurt.

However, no matter what, this man was coming to their house tomorrow, and as parents, it was definitely their duty to give him a good assessment for their daughter’s sake.

Chen Feng was unaware of all these undercurrents; he just thought he was going over to visit and to help persuade Wu Mengting’s parents not to force her into anything. Whether they listened or not was not his concern.

After lunch, Wu Mengting reluctantly began saying goodbye to Zhao Xiaolan. The two women chatted for a long time, both becoming quite emotional by the end, nearly tearing up, leaving Chen Feng, who had already become impatient, speechless.

"If you want to visit again, you’re welcome any time. Coming after the New Year is okay too. When it’s time to go to Xiu Zhou, you can travel with Ah Feng,"

Zhao Xiaolan said with a look of reluctance, holding Wu Mengting’s hand.

With tears brimming in her eyes, Wu Mengting said, "Okay, I’ll come over to give you New Year’s greetings, Auntie."

"Haha, then I’ll be waiting for your New Year’s visit," Zhao Xiaolan instantly cheered up.

Wu Mengting finally showed a smile.

Finally, Chen Feng couldn’t help but interject, "Have you finished saying goodbye? You’ve been talking for almost half an hour."

Both women turned a disapproving gaze toward him, especially the mother Zhao Xiaolan, whose look suddenly put pressure on Chen Feng, who quickly chuckled and said, "It’s almost two o’clock now, I’m afraid if we go too late, it’ll be difficult to come back in the evening."

Hearing Chen Feng say this, Zhao Xiaolan gently patted Wu Mengting’s hand and said, "Then you should head off now. Call me when you get there."

"Okay, Auntie," Wu Mengting nodded obediently.

Zhao Xiaolan then released her hand and saw the two of them off to the door.

As Chen Feng was getting into the car, Zhao Xiaolan didn’t forget to remind him to remember to buy a gift for the visit.

It was his first visit to someone else’s home, and since he was there as Wu Mengting’s sworn brother, he certainly couldn’t go empty-handed.

Once in the car, Chen Feng asked Wu Mengting what kind of gift her parents would like.

Wu Mengting didn’t pretend to be polite, suggesting that he didn’t need to bring a gift. Instead, she honestly said her dad liked to drink a bit, so a bottle of alcohol would do, and her mom was rather vain, so cosmetics would work.

They could buy these at a mall in the downtown area, which was near Wu Mengting’s home.

The two first drove to the brothers’ car beauty shop, where Wu Mengting’s Mini had been parked all along. She came to pick it up and took the opportunity to say goodbye to Chen Rui.

After that, they each drove onto the highway heading toward the downtown area. About an hour later, they arrived in the downtown area and met up one after another at the mall they had agreed upon.

After parking their cars, led by Wu Mengting, they went into the mall and quickly purchased the gifts: two bottles of Moutai and a set of L’Oréal cosmetics.

The items weren’t expensive, adding up to just over three thousand. The price was just about right, not seeming too expensive, nor too cheap.
