Chapter 271: Chapter 167 Aunt’s Kindness_2"Of course, I’ve talked about it. So what if you’ve been married? And you don’t even have kids yet, so it’s even less of an issue. Of course, I’m not hiding anything from you. They only have one daughter, so if you have a son in the future, the first one will definitely have to take their family name. Your son will inherit his grandfather’s business. It’s not about you becoming a live-in son-in-law; that’s their only request. Other things like a house and a dowry, as long as you two get along and the girl likes you, all that doesn’t matter. And her dowry will certainly satisfy you." In the past, with such strong financial conditions from the other party, with such a good opportunity, even if the woman was not very pretty, Chen Feng might have been very likely to agree. After all, there’s nothing wrong with being a kept man, and besides, not everyone is capable of being kept—you have to have the strength and the ability to afford it. But now Chen Feng, not to mention that he was diagnosed with a terminal illness, even without a terminal illness, still had assets worth tens of millions. He really didn’t need to settle just for money. He was just about to decline again when Chen Rui, standing aside, said enviously, "Ah Feng, it sounds like a great deal. Where could you find such a good opportunity? You should agree quickly and meet her tonight. Who knows, you might just win her over. It could save you thirty years of struggle." Upon hearing this, Chen Xiaoxia finally gave Chen Rui, her great-nephew, a proper look for the first time, nodding and saying with a smile, "That’s exactly it. The other family has assets worth at least a billion dollars. Better to benefit our own family member than someone else. Ah Feng, your aunt wouldn’t harm you. I’ve met the girl myself; she’s twenty-four this year, a real gem, and pretty, too." "A genuine beauty with wealth!" Chen Rui was even more envious upon hearing this, ignoring the displeased look from his wife. "Yes, a genuine beauty with wealth," Chen Xiaoxia nodded and smiled again, "So, at the end of last year, when I was playing cards with her mom, I mentioned Ah Feng and introduced him a bit, showed her Ah Feng’s photo. Because I vouched for him, her mom trusted in Ah Feng’s character. Otherwise, how could her daughter just casually agree to a blind date? It’s this opportunity I’ve managed to secure for you with great difficulty; don’t take it for granted." This was truly a kind gesture from his aunt, and she had even vouched for him, at the cost of owing quite a few favors. If Chen Feng insisted not to go, he would really make it hard for his aunt. During his hesitation, Zhao Xiaolan spoke up, "Ah Xia, I know you mean well. But I’ve already picked a girl for Ah Feng. The girl is from the downtown area of Lu City, also an only daughter, twenty-three this year, pretty and sensible, and a graduate of East Sea University. Last year she came from Xiu Zhou to stay with us in our hometown for more than ten days before leaving, and I spent days and nights with her, very satisfied with her. So, we can only take your kind intentions to heart." Hearing these words from her sister-in-law, Chen Xiaoxia was somewhat displeased and frowned, "Such a big matter, why didn’t you tell me earlier? After all, I’m Ah Feng’s aunt, and I watched him grow up. And this girl you mentioned, is she really that good? Ah Feng, tell me, are you determined to marry this girl and no one else?" Faced with the aunt who had always been very fond of him since he was a child, Chen Feng really couldn’t lie, only managing to say awkwardly with a pained expression on his face, "The girl my mom mentioned is my sworn sister. My girlfriend is someone else." When Chen Xiaoxia was taken aback, Zhao Xiaolan said with a stern face, "Anyway, I’ve already decided on Little Ting as my daughter-in-law, and you can break up with your other girlfriend when you go back to Xiu Zhou." Chen Xiaoxia frowned as she looked at Zhao Xiaolan, saying with some dissatisfaction, "What era is it now, sister-in-law, you’re still trying to arrange marriages? Since Ah Feng doesn’t like the girl, you shouldn’t force him." Zhao Xiaolan also looked at her sister-in-law with some dissatisfaction. She could let other matters go, but not her son’s marriage, especially when it involved Wu Mengting, the daughter-in-law she had set her eyes on, she couldn’t back down. But after all, it was her sister-in-law, and she was at her house, so Zhao Xiaolan could only subtly express her stance, "Ah Xia, there are circumstances you don’t know about, I’ll tell you some other time. Anyway, thank you for your kind intentions this time. Let’s forget about the blind date." Hearing this, Chen Xiaoxia looked at her nephew, Chen Feng, with complex emotions, sighing, "Ah Feng, you’re still such a heartthrob. It hasn’t been long since your divorce, and there are already a girlfriend and a sworn sister. I worried for nothing before." Chen Feng was sensible and quickly asked, "Aunt, if I don’t go, will it put you in a difficult position?" Chen Xiaoxia forced a smile, "Of course, it’s a bit hard to explain. I had already told their family, suddenly changing plans is definitely not good. But it’s okay, if need be, I’ll just have to apologize sincerely to her mom." Chen Feng felt embarrassed by her words. Although he couldn’t be blamed for this situation, he couldn’t just watch his aunt humbling herself to apologize to others. After a two-second struggle, Chen Feng could only say with great reluctance, "Then I’ll just meet her, say that I’m not interested, so as not to make things difficult for you, Aunt." "Ha-ha, you really are my precious nephew, always caring for your aunt." Chen Xiaoxia said cheerfully, reaching out to Chen Feng again, and this time Chen Feng was too embarrassed to dodge. She pinched his cheek lightly with her fingers, and he felt a mixture of warmth, embarrassment, and resentment in his heart: I’m thirty years old, Aunt, you’re still treating me like I’m three! Chen Xiaoxia only pinched him twice before letting him go, but her other hand still held onto him as she said cheerfully, "Then that’s settled. I’ll take you there tonight to take a look, just for appearances." Chen Feng nodded helplessly. "Come on! Let’s all go inside, we’ve been standing outside for quite a while now." Chen Xiaoxia, leading the way, pulled Chen Feng along and called everyone into the villa. Soon, everyone entered the villa together. The living room on the first floor was quite large, about fifty or sixty square meters. It had been redecorated two years ago, giving off a very stylish vibe with its brown leather sofas, large-screen TV, and exquisite TV wall, all exuding luxury. Above the TV wall, there was a high-end, large projection screen that automatically raised and lowered. Watching movies with the projector was crystal clear, just like being in a movie theater. This had been installed just two years ago, an idea of Aunt’s son, Fang Zechao. Chen Feng had come over two years ago to watch a movie using this projector, and the effect was indeed very impressive. Of course, for such good quality, the price was also quite hefty. At that moment, cousin Fang Zechao was sitting on the sofa, playing console games using the TV as a monitor, seemingly battling monsters, with the home sound system booming incessantly. "This child, you only play games every day when you’re home for the New Year. Your uncle and the others are here, and you haven’t even greeted them?" Chen Xiaoxia went over dissatisfied, picked up the remote, and pressed mute. Fang Zechao, who was in his twenties this year and studying at a university in Shen City, was tall and skinny, with acne on his face. He had an average appearance, neither handsome nor ugly. Seeing his mom getting angry, he could only pause the game, stand up, and dutifully greet Chen Feng’s family. Chen Dayong, as the uncle, took the rare opportunity to talk to him for a bit, and Zhao Xiaolan also praised him at the side, then casually inquired about the other members of Aunt’s family. Uncle Fang Ruiming had gone out and hadn’t returned yet. Grandma was busy in the kitchen, and her daughter, Fang Min, was in her room upstairs. Hearing this, Zhao Xiaolan led the family to the kitchen to say hello. Although Grandma wasn’t related by blood, she was still a grandmother in terms of family hierarchy, so as the younger generation, they all needed to pay their respects. Perhaps due to her advanced age, in these past two years, this grandma had become much nicer to their family than before, especially fond of Little Yu and Little Xue, the youngest great-granddaughters, whom she held and kissed. Hearing them call her "Great-Grandma," her face broke into a smile full of wrinkles. By the time they came out of the kitchen, cousin Fang Min had also come downstairs from her room, her head lowered as she softly called out to Chen Dayong and his wife with a gentle "Uncle, Auntie." She was just eighteen this year, a senior in high school preparing for the college entrance exam. Her personality was somewhat introverted, but she was much prettier than her brother, with the delicate beauty of the girl-next-door and playful short hair, exuding the charm of a young lady. Chen Xiaoxia called everyone to sit down, and then asked her son to quit the game and turn on the TV, after which she told her daughter to wash some fruit and bring it over. Both her children complied obediently, which showed her authority at home. Follow current novels on freewe(b)novel.c(o)m
