Chapter 326: Chapter 195: Seemingly Ruthless Yet Affectionate

While having breakfast in the morning, Chen Feng told his mom that he would be returning to Xiu Zhou this afternoon.

During the New Year, Chen Feng had already informed his family about his joint venture to open a milk tea shop in Xiu Zhou. He also mentioned his stock trading activities. Furthermore, his nominal girlfriend and his sworn sister, Wu Mengting, would be returning to Xiu Zhou after the New Year.

So, naturally, Chen Feng was also supposed to go to Xiu Zhou after the New Year.

His family couldn’t really oppose this decision, but Zhao Xiaolan still hoped he could come back to live at home sooner.

It’s said that a mother worries even if her child travels a thousand miles. Moreover, their family was doing quite well now; they had opened two car beauty shops in their hometown. Being your own boss was certainly better than working hard for someone else in a big city and making less than ten thousand a month.

Of course, the prerequisite was that Chen Feng could quickly find a partner and bring her back home.

Sun Xiaorui, whom they had video chatted with before, did not count. Unless that partner was Wu Mengting, Zhao Xiaolan didn’t really oppose them continuing life in Xiu Zhou. She even supported them working hard in Xiu Zhou, trying to buy a house there.

Regarding her son Chen Feng, Zhao Xiaolan always spoke directly. Before he left, she reiterated her fondness for Wu Mengting and her hopes for their future. She wished they could settle their lifelong commitment this year and hoped Chen Feng could bring Wu Mengting home by the end of the year and have her call her mom directly.

Chen Feng wasn’t very opposed to his mom’s expectations and wasn’t even as embarrassed as before.

Because he discovered a possible means of survival last night.

If he, who originally had only a few months to live, could still be alive by the end of the year and be doing well, and if Wu Mengting hadn’t changed her feelings for him, then he really had no reason to reject her pure love anymore.

After having lunch with the family and saying goodbye, in the afternoon, when he was about to leave, the trunk was filled with vegetables and some local products prepared by his parents. It was only after their repeated instructions that Chen Feng managed to start the car and leave.

When the car got onto the national highway, Chen Feng finally sighed with relief.

If his mom started nagging, it was really unbearable for him.

After parking the car by the roadside, Chen Feng first sent a WeChat message to Wu Mengting, stating that he had left home and would wait for her at the first highway service area.

Wu Mengting quickly replied, saying OK.

Then Chen Feng sent WeChat messages to Lin Yujiao, saying that he was now returning to Xiu Zhou and bidding her farewell.

He also mentioned that once the shop on Longhua Street was reclaimed, she could go ahead and set up shop there with discounted rent. If it was convenient by then, he would specifically go back to Lu City to formally take over the shop and officially sign a rental contract with her.

Lin Yujiao didn’t expect Chen Feng to return to Xiu Zhou so soon, not even meeting her to say goodbye. Thinking about how Chen Feng hadn’t been bothering with her these past few days, and even more, not having spent nights with her, she felt somewhat blocked in her heart.

She immediately called Chen Feng, who answered.

"Are... are you leaving right now?"

Lin Yujiao originally intended to complain a bit, but when she opened her mouth, the tone changed, becoming soft and weak, with no confidence.

"Yes, I originally planned to come to your place for a meeting, but since it’s daytime now, there are too many people talking, and it’s too close to my home, my mom is watching, and she can easily spot my car, so I didn’t go to your place."

Of course, Chen Feng knew that leaving without seeing her was somewhat heartless, but he was telling the truth.

This explanation was really necessary to avoid Lin Yujiao being sad or misunderstanding.

As expected, after hearing Chen Feng’s explanation, Lin Yujiao’s initial dissatisfaction dissipated instantly, though she still said in a somewhat sorrowful tone, "Then... then we, we..."

Lin Yujiao didn’t know what to say for a moment, or how to express it.

Chen Feng, of course, understood her meaning and immediately said with a smile, "Of course, we will still maintain contact and our current relationship. As long as you are willing, you will always be my woman. I’ll continue giving you living expenses every month."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yujiao couldn’t help but feel a bit happy. She had been worried that after the New Year, when Chen Feng returned to Xiu Zhou, their relationship would end.

It’s not just about the three thousand living allowance each month; what she couldn’t bear more was losing Chen Feng, even if it meant maintaining just a nominal relationship as a temporary couple.

After spending this period of time together, Lin Yujiao couldn’t deny that she had developed feelings, even love, for Chen Feng.

Even though she knew it would be challenging to turn her relationship with Chen Feng into a real one, she just didn’t want to end it so easily.

Having heard Chen Feng’s words now, Lin Yujiao was naturally happy, but the thought of being separated from Chen Feng by distance soon brought her mood down, "Once you leave, we won’t be able to meet frequently anymore."

Chen Feng heard her downcast tone, knowing she was reluctant to part with him. He felt a bit smug about his charm and said with a smile, "A little separation makes the heart grow fonder. In the future, if you have time, come to Xiu Zhou to see me, or I might come back to Lu City to see you if I have time."

After saying this, Chen Feng, to avoid any misunderstanding, added, "Of course, if you meet someone suitable, don’t miss the opportunity. I can’t promise you anything on my side."

Originally, after hearing the first part of Chen Feng’s statement, Lin Yujiao was very happy and even started imagining the future of their rendezvous flights. But after his addition, it really spoiled the mood, quenching the feelings that had risen in her heart.

"I’m with you now, and my parents, relatives, and friends all think I’m dating you. How can I find someone else?"

In her heart, she felt truly indignant: You’re the one who pursued me (at least that’s what she thought), and now that you’re bored, you’re so gracious to let me go? Chen Feng, do you really want me to be with someone else?

Yet Chen Feng spoke in a relaxed tone, "Nowadays, many people get married and divorced. We are just nominally dating, and not ending up together is quite normal. That was what we agreed on initially. Of course, inside, I don’t hope you find another man. It’s just that, in the next year or two, I’m really not planning to remarry anyone, and I don’t want to delay you, especially since you’re not getting any younger."

"Thank you for your kind intentions." Lin Yujiao couldn’t help but mock him, then she asked, "Where are you now? Let me come see you."

Chen Feng hadn’t planned to meet her, but upon hearing her ask, he hesitated for a moment and then said, "I’m on the national highway near the town exit, parked by the roadside."

"Okay, I’ll come find you right away."

With that, Lin Yujiao hung up the phone directly.

In less than ten minutes, Lin Yujiao drove over and parked in front of Chen Feng’s car.

Then, Lin Yujiao sent Chen Feng a message: [Let’s go to a hotel]

Chen Feng didn’t expect her to be so proactive, and after being stunned for a moment, he replied with a shy emoticon.
