Chapter 249: Chapter 157: One Outperforms the Other in Acting

"How did you get here?"

Chen Feng looked at Wu Mengting with a surprised face as she suddenly stood in front of him.

Today, she had clearly dressed up carefully, changing her hairstyle a bit. She used to like wearing ponytails, but this time she had let her hair down in a natural middle part, which made her look even more gentle and sweet.

She wore a black cropped down jacket unzipped to reveal a candy-colored pullover underneath, paired with a gray woolen miniskirt, the kind that comes just over the knees, encasing her slender beautiful legs in black tights, with light brown fur-trimmed ankle boots on her feet.

This outfit was both slimming and very flattering, truly stunning.

Chen Feng’s surprise was not only because of her sudden appearance but also because he was dazzled by her outfit, and he found it hard to take his eyes off her.

Damn it! He felt a flutter in his heart!

"Why? Can’t I come?"

Wu Mengting gave Chen Feng a sweet smile, then took out a not-so-big gift box from the bag she was carrying and handed it to Chen Feng with both hands: "Happy birthday! This is my gift to you!"

Chen Feng found it somewhat hard to shift his gaze from her legs and look at the gift box she handed him.

He was somewhat moved inside.

He silently accepted the gift box.

"Open it and see if you like it?" Wu Mengting looked at him with a sweet smile.

Chen Feng did not stand on ceremony and directly opened the gift box.

Unwrapping the outer gift box, inside was a rectangular packaging box, not very large, with English written on it. Upon inspection, it was a bottle of perfume. Chen Feng was not very knowledgeable about perfumes.

Wu Mengting explained, "This is a bottle of Artisan Cedar Vines perfume. It’s very hard to buy in China. I had a classmate in Beautiful Country purchase it and send it over. It just arrived a few days ago, luckily in time. Open it and smell it, see if you like the scent."

"Why would a man like me wear perfume?" While Chen Feng was aware that many men wore perfume nowadays, he himself was not used to it or particularly interested in it.

"Us women often say you men are smelly. Because men are smelly, they should wear perfume."

Wu Mengting said solemnly, then couldn’t help but giggle.

Chen Feng also smiled and then went ahead and opened the package, revealing a transparent glass bottle of perfume.

He slightly twisted the cap open and took a sniff. It wasn’t very fragrant, different from the perfumes he had smelled before. It seemed to have a grassy scent, and surprisingly, this scent was more pleasant than some of the somewhat pungent women’s perfumes. It was faint and reserved.

"What do you think? Do you like this scent?" Wu Mengting asked, blinking her eyes.

Chen Feng nodded immediately, speaking honestly, "It smells quite nice. It’s comfortable to smell. If it’s this kind of scent, I don’t mind wearing it."

Wu Mengting happily said, "I knew you would like this perfume. Because of your character and temperament, it really suits you. It has a green leaf, grassy scent, very suitable for a genteel man."

Chen Feng chuckled, "In your eyes, am I that kind of genteel man?"

Wu Mengting nodded, "Of course, your personality seems very refined, like a scholar."

"Correct answer. I’ll reward you next time."

"Can’t you reward me today?" Wu Mengting asked with a slight pout.

"Alright. I’ll treat you to a feast. In a bit, our whole family will go to the county town to shop for groceries for the New Year’s feast, and we’ll have a big dinner tonight."

"Great!" Wu Mengting immediately clapped her hands happily, "I love the dishes your mom cooks the most. I’m really in for a treat today. Oh, and I’ve bought gifts for uncle and auntie, as well as for your brother’s family. Come with me to the car to get them."

"Why so formal?"

Chen Feng said this, but he quickly came out from behind the counter and joined her to carry a large pile of gifts from her car.

There were health supplements for his parents, two big bags of seafood for his brother and sister-in-law, and two large plush toys for his two nieces.

These gifts together cost at least two or three thousand.

Chen Feng didn’t say anything more out of politeness. She was giving these gifts to please his family. Besides, Wu Mengting had some savings, so buying these gifts was nothing extravagant.

If anything, Chen Feng thought he’d find a way to repay her later.

As the two of them were unloading the car, several curious neighbors who had gathered around, including a few elderly men and women who knew them, came over to greet Chen Feng and Wu Mengting.

Wu Mengting had previously stayed here for a few days and had met almost all the neighbors. She smiled and responded politely to a few familiar faces.

Inside, the Chen family members, who had heard the commotion, also came out and saw Wu Mengting.

"Little Ting, how did you get here?" Mother Zhao Xiaolan approached quickly with surprise and warmly took Wu Mengting’s hand, her face full of joy.

Wu Mengting also greeted the Chen family with a beaming smile, then conversed warmly with Zhao Xiaolan, making her laugh heartily in no time.

The two little nieces were also very affectionate, continuously calling her "sister."

Even Chen Rui and his wife, Li Guihong, had smiles on their faces, very pleased with Wu Mengting’s visit.

Chen Feng watched from the side and inwardly sighed, having to admire the effectiveness of Wu Mengting’s approach; she had completely won over his entire family.

If he were to marry another woman in the future, his family would definitely object.

Fortunately, Chen Feng had no plans to marry anymore; otherwise, he had to admit, among the women he knew, Wu Mengting was indeed the best match.
