Chapter 279: Chapter 171: It’s a Pity to Miss Out_2
Both brothers are her biological nephews, but the difference in treatment is quite significant, though Chen Rui has been used to it since he was a child. Even if Li Guihong felt a bit upset, she couldn’t show it.
After breakfast, Chen Feng played battle games with his cousin Fang Zechao. After lunch, Zhao Xiaolan and her husband Chen Dayong took their elder son’s family back to Lu City.
Shortly after, Chen Xiaoxia took her two children and got into the car driven by Chen Feng to visit a nearby tourist spot.
It’s seven or eight kilometers away from her home, and the roads are smooth, so it takes only about ten minutes to drive there.
This area counts as the suburbs. There’s a small mountain, and at the foot of it, a large lake forms a natural park, which, with some human modifications and planning, has become a modestly popular tourist spot.
People from the city often come here to play if they don’t want to travel far. There are not only green mountains and waters with some garden architecture but also a snack street alongside it. Not far from there, there’s even an amusement park, which is quite lively.
At the suggestion of cousin Fang Zechao, the four of them first went to the amusement park, took a ride on the roller coaster, then the Ferris wheel, followed by bumper cars. He also wanted to visit the haunted house, but this was unanimously opposed by both his mother and sister, so he had to give up. They then headed to the snack street for some snacks before strolling in the park.
The four of them walked and stopped, taking photos along the way. Chen Xiaoxia, especially, took many selfies with Chen Feng in close poses. In a few photos, she even leaned her head on Chen Feng’s shoulder, making cousin Fang Zechao feel a bit jealous.
When her own son took pictures with her, the most intimate gesture was just Chen Xiaoxia putting one hand on his shoulder.
Chen Feng was already aware of his aunt, who, despite being forty-five or forty-six years old, still had the heart of a young girl. Although he found it a bit helpless, he cooperated obediently.
Fortunately, they didn’t take too many pictures, just about a dozen or so. As the weather turned favorable, it started to drizzle, so they had to cut their outing short.
Returning to the car, they wiped themselves with tissues before starting the car to head back.
"Honestly, I checked the weather forecast, and it said it would be cloudy, but now it’s raining out of the blue. This weather forecast is really unreliable," Chen Xiaoxia couldn’t help but complain. They were having such a good time, and the sudden rain really spoiled it.
Chen Feng comforted her, saying, "We can come back next time."
Chen Xiaoxia, with a sigh, said, "Who knows when the next time will be. You’re all grown up now. It’s rare to have everyone together like this."
Chen Feng couldn’t help but feel a twinge of sadness in his heart. It wasn’t certain there would be another opportunity like this next time, but he still said, "Of course there will be. We could even come back tomorrow."
Cousin Fang Zechao chimed in, "If we come back tomorrow, it won’t be as fun."
Cousin Fang Min nodded in agreement, "We’ve actually visited here several times already. Coming back tomorrow right after today, what’s the point? Why don’t we go to Tang River Wetland Park tomorrow? There are a lot of wild birds and many beautiful folk houses."
It was rare for cousin Fang Min to say so much, and Chen Feng was the first to nod in agreement, "Sure, let’s go there tomorrow then."
Chen Xiaoxia also nodded, "That place is a bit farther. I went there two years ago. The scenery is nice, so it’s worth another visit."
Fang Zechao replied, "I went there with my classmates last year. It’s not fun at all. Just some old houses and a river. It’s boring, sister, let’s pick another place."
"I haven’t been there yet. I want to go. If you don’t want to, just don’t go. I’ll go with mom and cousin."
"Alright, alright. I’ll go with you then."
Just as they were speaking, Chen Xiaoxia suddenly shouted, "Ah Feng, stop, isn’t that Little Dan by the roadside?"
The car driven by Chen Feng had just been on the road for a few minutes when he heard his aunt in the front passenger seat shouting. He couldn’t help but slow down and look in the direction she was pointing. Although it was raining outside, and he was driving, they were quite close, so he could see clearly.
Standing by the roadside, it did seem to be Hong Xiaodan, arguing with someone.
"Ah Feng, go over and take a look. We know her, and we can’t let Little Dan be bullied."
What else could Chen Feng say? He had no choice but to signal and pull over to the roadside.
At this point, Hong Xiaodan was utterly furious. She had been in a bad mood since last night.
This morning, her mom had originally invited Chen Feng’s family over as guests with her consent, but they refused.
This undoubtedly made her and her mom feel very embarrassed, but since they said they had urgent matters at home, what else could they say?
However, this made Hong Xiaodan’s mood even more aggravated. So, she drove around aimlessly in the city until it started drizzling, and she decided to head back.
Then she had a minor scrape with someone here. It was a small matter, and they could each handle it through insurance or wait for the police.
But when both parties got out of their cars, what was originally a minor issue blew up because the other driver’s girlfriend was her childhood nemesis, Qi Lei, a classmate from elementary to high school.
They were originally best friends in elementary school. But in middle school, they became enemies because a boy Qi Lei liked confessed to Hong Xiaodan. Ever since then, Qi Lei had been against her, until they went to different cities for college, when things finally ended.
They hadn’t seen each other in years and theoretically, this unexpected reunion should have been a time to bury the hatchet with a smile.
Initially, Qi Lei acted magnanimous, smiling sweetly and holding her boyfriend’s arm, introducing him to Hong Xiaodan, who nodded and smiled back at her boyfriend out of politeness and exchanged a few words.
But things got complicated—her boyfriend seemed mesmerized by Hong Xiaodan, or at least Qi Lei thought so, which was close to the truth.
Her boyfriend kept apologizing to Hong Xiaodan, claiming the scrape was entirely his fault and he would cover the repair costs. He even suggested they meet more often since they were old classmates, showing immense enthusiasm.
He was so solicitous that even a fool could see it.
Consequently, Qi Lei immediately thought of that handsome classmate from middle school, whom Hong Xiaodan "stole" from her. New resentment and old grudges surged up, and she instantly put on a sullen face, insisting that Hong Xiaodan was completely at fault for the scrape and should pay.
If Qi Lei had been more pleasant, it’d be one thing to take full responsibility. But with such an attitude, and recalling the times Qi Lei targeted her in school, plus her already bad mood today, there was no way she could hold back.
So, they started arguing on the street.
It could only be described as a clash of fates.
And Qi Lei’s boyfriend could only try to mediate, but his attempts at diplomacy only made things worse, making Qi Lei even angrier.
"Whose boyfriend are you? Mine or hers? Why are you stopping me?" Qi Lei saw her boyfriend acting like a fair judge, which infuriated her to the point that she directly lashed out at him.
