Chapter 275: Chapter 169: I Have No Feelings for Men_2

She never thought Chen Feng might reject her, or to say, wouldn’t appreciate her, a typical rich and beautiful woman. Given her own conditions, she had confidence and assurance that no man would reject her.

It had never happened before; on the contrary, a bunch of men would chase her, but she couldn’t be bothered to respond.

Now, however, she had met an anomaly like Chen Feng.

Hong Xiaodan tried hard to suppress the anger in her heart, trying to keep her tone calm, pretending not to hear what Chen Feng meant, and continued to ask, "Then what do you think about your future eldest son taking the mother’s surname?"

Chen Feng looked at her speechlessly. He didn’t believe she couldn’t hear it. If she could hear it but still asked such questions, wasn’t she deliberately making things embarrassing?

At this moment, the two elders had already gone upstairs, so Chen Feng also let go of his psychological burden, glanced at her, the corner of his mouth slightly tugging, lowered his voice a bit and said, "You don’t have to pretend. I know you’re not interested in me, just like I’m not interested in you. So, later when I leave, just tell your mom that you’re not interested in me. I’ll say the same to my aunt."

Upon hearing this, Hong Xiaodan suddenly laughed and gave Chen Feng a thumb-up, "Looks like you’re really a pro. I acted so well, and you weren’t fooled."

Chen Feng rolled his eyes at her and said, "Although I’m good-looking, I’m still self-aware. A rich girl like you can’t possibly fancy someone from a humble origin like me, who’s also been divorced. I don’t even know why you and your mom agreed to this blind date in the first place. Overall, I find it a bit abnormal."

Hong Xiaodan shook her head and smiled, then deftly pulled a pack of cigarettes from her handbag beside her, took one and put it in her mouth, before handing one to Chen Feng, saying casually, "Here, have one."

Chen Feng glanced at her and shook his head, "I don’t smoke."

"So boring!" Hong Xiaodan muttered, taking out a delicate lady lighter, lighting up the thin cigarette expertly, clearly showing she was a seasoned smoker.

Women who smoke are relatively rare, but Chen Feng had seen some before, so he was not surprised.

But he couldn’t help but mentally criticize his aunt and uncle once more for their appraisal of this rich girl, so gentle and well-natured — Chen Feng almost believed it before he came.

"Your guess is accurate. Under normal circumstances, our family would not consider a divorced man like you for a blind date. After all, our family status is right there. I’m not bragging when I say if our family intended to find a son-in-law, we could choose among university students, postgraduates, or doctoral candidates from Tsinghua University and Peking University.

But I’m the only daughter in our family, and there’s been too many people with ulterior motives, many coveting our family’s wealth and business. Since I was in junior high, there have been quite a few boys, either by their own will or encouraged by their families, trying to approach me. So, my parents want to find a son-in-law from a regular, clean family, with good genes, good looks, good character, good education, and not too ambitious or overly capable. Earlier, my mom found you quite fitting this standard after hearing your aunt’s introduction, so this blind date is arranged."

Chen Feng believed her explanation. Dad Hong and Mrs. Hong obviously had their plans and insight. They only had Hong Xiaodan, this one daughter. If the son-in-law was overly capable and strong-willed, their daughter might not hold him down. Then, their family’s hard-earned large property would likely benefit the son-in-law.

Of course, this son-in-law also couldn’t be useless; he certainly had to be above standard, otherwise their daughter would be wronged. Moreover, the future heir of their family’s business, the "grandson", had to have good genes too.

"I heard from my aunt you also agreed to this blind date, what’s that about?"

Chen Feng casually asked.

Hong Xiaodan puffed out a smoke ring and then laughed, "I am actually indifferent to you men, but the family kept pushing and forcing me to do blind dates, and I got quite fed up, so I agreed casually. I initially thought you would be a dull person or someone who would suck up like those men before, but unexpectedly you’re completely different."

"You are also completely different from what I imagined." Chen Feng said with a smile, looking a bit quirky in the face as he asked, "You said you’re uninterested in men, could it be that you prefer women?"

"Get lost!"

Hong Xiaodan directly blew out a smoke ring forcefully at Chen Feng, who hurriedly waved it away.

"When I said I’m uninterested in men, I meant I haven’t encountered a man yet who makes my heart flutter and capture my heart, understand? My sexual orientation is pretty normal."

"OK, sorry!" Chen Feng quickly raised his hand in apology, "I was just asking casually; no need to get worked up. It’s just your short hair and smoking, saying you’re uninterested in men, made me misunderstand. Can’t entirely blame me."

"Alright. Looks like I shouldn’t keep short hair, no wonder when I was parked and smoking on the roadside last night several women gave me odd looks, two even approached to chat."

Hearing this, Chen Feng couldn’t help laughing, "That probably has little to do with your short hair. Mainly it was the car you were driving."

Hong Xiaodan paused for a second, then nodded thoughtfully, "Maybe. I was only driving a Land Rover worth over six hundred thousand yesterday, that’s low-key enough, right?"

This talk was somewhat a Versailles boast. Driving a Land Rover worth over six hundred thousand and still considered low-key? What then would he call his car worth over two hundred thousand? A beggar’s ride?

"You’re low-key enough." Chen Feng honestly agreed, then returned to the main topic, "What I said earlier, do you agree? After I leave, you’ll tell your mom you’re not interested in me, and I’ll tell my aunt the same."

Hong Xiaodan took a drag from her cigarette, gracefully, squinting her eyes, tilting her head while asking, "Are you really not interested in me?"

Chen Feng tactfully replied, "It’s not that I’m not interested, it’s that I can’t measure up."

"Don’t say that. Actually, our family wasn’t that wealthy from the start; my dad was originally a worker in a state enterprise, then he left to start his own business, gradually built up. So, our family isn’t really some big wealthy family, at most just nouveau riche. And now, you also have some assets of your own, and more importantly, it’s money earned by your own skill, which I admire. How about... we give it a try and see? Maybe we could hit it off in the future."

"Thanks. But I’m really not suitable for you. I won’t hide it from you. Actually, I already have a girlfriend, just got together at the end of last year, and the relationship is quite stable. It’s just that my aunt doesn’t know, leading to this misunderstanding and this blind date. I was too embarrassed to tell her the truth, so I just came to go through the motions."

Hong Xiaodan fell silent, took several drags in succession before she suddenly pressed the half-finished cigarette into the leather sofa to extinguish it, smiling and saying, "You’re really interesting. Aren’t you afraid I’d get angry and find someone to beat you up?"

Chen Feng calmly said, "In my gut feeling, even though you have short hair and smoke and drink, you’re a good girl."

"Screw you! Are you giving me a nice person card?" Hong Xiaodan glared immediately.
