Chapter 57: Leave First
Chapter 57: Chapter 57: Leave First
After hearing Chen Feng’s words, Sun Xiaorui had a melancholic expression and sighed, "I don’t even know when the next time will be?"
Her father’s sudden cerebral infarction and collapse had been truly frightening.
If he couldn’t wake up, he might never wake up again.
Even if he were fortunate enough to wake up, he might become hemiplegic. In that case, as his daughter, she would certainly need to stay at home with her mother to care for him. How could she travel with Chen Feng then?
Chen Feng also knew that once Sun Xiaorui left, it was unlikely he would ever travel with her again in his lifetime.
One reason was the thorny situation with her father, who might not be able to return to his side for a short time, and the other was that he himself felt his days were numbered. Whether he could make it to the New Year was a question.
Thinking of this, Chen Feng couldn’t help but feel melancholic as well.
However, he could only say against his will, "It should be very soon. Your father’s illness might just be a false alarm. You have to think positively."
Sun Xiaorui gave a bitter smile and nodded her head.
Lin Wan suddenly spoke up, "Sun, why don’t I give you the money we earned from the livestream together right now?"
"Didn’t we say we’d wait until you got your salary next month?" Sun Xiaorui looked at her with some confusion.
Lin Wan smiled and said, "I just heard that your father was ill. It’s the same for me to give it to you in advance."
After thinking about the family’s current need for money, Sun Xiaorui nodded without being pretentious, "Then thank you very much."
"No need to thank me, it’s what you deserve." Lin Wan took out her phone and after searching for a moment said, "The total earnings for that day were forty-six thousand five hundred. The platform takes half, so that’s twenty-three thousand two hundred fifty. Well, round it to twenty-three thousand three hundred. We’ll split it evenly, each person gets eleven thousand six hundred fifteen."
Sun Xiaorui said straightforwardly, "Just give me ten thousand."
"That won’t do. We agreed to split it evenly. I will transfer it to your WeChat now."
The two had added each other on WeChat long ago, and Lin Wan transferred the money promptly.
"Thanks a lot. You’re really nice," Sun Xiaorui said with genuine gratitude.
Lin Wan laughed, "It’s what you deserve. You’re a good person too, trusting me like this and not being afraid that I would renege. I certainly can’t fail your trust."
Sun Xiaorui smiled and said nothing, instead reaching out to give her a tight hug, expressing everything without words.
Chen Feng changed the subject and asked, "The airline didn’t tell you clearly when the plane will take off?"
Wu Mengting smiled bitterly and shook her head, "No. It looks like this time we may have to take the train back."
Chen Feng laughed, "There’s nothing wrong with taking the train. Along the way, you can enjoy the scenery out the window."
Lin Wan complained, "That’s more than a dozen hours."
Chen Feng suggested, "You could do a livestream. Livestreaming on the train might also interest quite a few netizens. If not for the livestream, you can buy sleeper tickets and just sleep your way through the journey."
"We can’t buy sleeper tickets, I looked on my phone and there just aren’t any available."
"Ever heard of scalpers?"
Lin Wan rolled her eyes, "Sleeper tickets are expensive to begin with, and with scalpers hiking up the price, it’s sure to be outrageous. We two don’t have as much money as you do."
Chen Feng shook his head with a laugh, "Now you’re being no fun. I just overheard, you make over ten thousand in a single day, and you can’t afford a sleeper ticket?"
Lin Wan said, annoyed, "So you really hope we take the train?"
"Haha, of course not. I’m just helping you make an alternative plan. Alright, I won’t keep you any longer. I’m going to buy a ticket to Qiongzhou."
With that, Chen Feng went off to buy his ticket by himself.
Lin Wan then asked Sun Xiaorui, "What illness did your father get?"
Sun Xiaorui didn’t hide it and told her.
"Why didn’t you ask him to go with you?" Lin Wan reproached.
Sun Xiaorui smiled bitterly and shook her head, "He’s not even my boyfriend, how could I brazenly ask him to go back with me?"
"He may not be your boyfriend, but he’s still a sweetheart. Your family is in trouble now, it doesn’t seem right for him to disregard it."
Lin Wan suddenly looked down on Chen Feng with disdain.
Sun Xiaorui still smiled bitterly and shook her head, "I have no right to ask him to do anything for me. Nor does he have any obligation to me."
"Alas, you’re just too easy-going."
Lin Wan could only offer her sympathy.
Wu Mengting actually felt that Chen Feng hadn’t done anything wrong; she knew that Sun Xiaorui was just a mistress kept by Chen Feng, and Sun Xiaorui had no right to demand that Chen Feng do anything for her, nor did Chen Feng have any obligation to do so.
The three women bowed their heads, each busy with their own phones, waiting until Chen Feng returned.
"I’m luckier than you guys. My flight is in an hour, I might leave before you."
Chen Feng said smilingly to them.
The three women reacted differently upon hearing this.
Lin Wan, "Can’t you book a later flight?"
Sun Xiaorui, "Then you be careful on your own."
Wu Mengting, "..."
Chen Feng ignored Lin Wan and only said to Sun Xiaorui, "You too. If there’s anything you need help with after you get back, you can contact me. I’ll definitely help if I can."
"Okay," Sun Xiaorui nodded her head.
Lin Wan couldn’t stand it and snorted, "Hypocrite. Can’t you just go back with her? Her dad is even unconscious in the hospital."
Chen Feng gave her a disdainful look and said bluntly, "Our relationship is none of your business."
Lin Wan glared at him, but she didn’t say anything more. She had no reason or right to meddle in the affairs between Chen Feng and Sun Xiaorui.
"Brother Feng, how long do you plan on staying in Qiongzhou?"
Wu Mengting spoke up to ease the tension.
"It depends. I’m not sure," Chen Feng replied offhandedly.
Wu Mengting, with a longing expression, said, "I’ve always wanted to visit Qiongzhou, too. It’s a pity I can’t join you this time; it would have been fun."
Her words were clearly suggestive.
This gave Chen Feng a bit of a headache; this silly girl just wasn’t one to back down even when she hit a wall.
Chen Feng could only give a smile. He was too polite to outright reject her, but he definitely didn’t agree.
Seeing this, Lin Wan’s impression of Chen Feng plummeted, and she intervened on behalf of Wu Mengting, "Tiantian, next time we’re free I’ll take you there. It’s really nice with its blue seas and skies."
"I want to go now. What do we do?" Wu Mengting suddenly asked with a laugh.
Lin Wan was taken aback, then turned to Chen Feng and said, "Brother Feng, seeing as Tiantian really wants to go, why don’t you two go together? Little Rui doesn’t object, so why are you, a grown man, being so squeamish?"
Chen Feng was at a loss for words.
Speaking from the heart, having Wu Mengting, a young, beautiful, and pure woman, so smitten with him was not without its appeal, so why be so squeamish?
But he was terminally ill!
The more Wu Mengting displayed her affection for him, the more he shouldn’t accept.
Otherwise, he would really harm her.
At a loss for what to say, Chen Feng suddenly found relief from the commotion that began to rise around him.
"It’s snowing! It’s snowing!"
"It’s getting heavier!"
"That’s a lot of snow!"
"Yeah, with such heavy snow, can the planes still take off?"
"Damn it! With this much snow, they definitely can’t take off."
"Fuck! I’ve got urgent matters. Am I not going to make it?"
...
Chen Feng and the others looked out of the waiting hall, through the floor-to-ceiling windows, they could clearly see the goose feather snow fluttering outside.
What had initially seemed like a light dusting, sparse and scattered, rapidly turned heavier, with a blanket of snowflakes falling from the sky, covering the entire airport.
Fuck!
Seeing this scene, Chen Feng couldn’t express his feelings at the moment better than with this word.
