Chapter 19: The Will in Aunt's Hand
The phone rang.
It was Doctor Connor calling.
"Mr. Lin, that Miss Guo has completed discharge procedures; sorry, we cannot restrict her personal freedom..."
Connor gave an explanation.
"It's fine; if she wants to leave, let her go!"
Lin Feng said helplessly.
Previously he had saved 300,000, with about 200,000 left.
Lin Feng had Connor use his ID number to get a membership card with that money.
Anyway, he'd need frequent check-ups, so it's like paying in advance.
Less than an hour after hanging up, Lin Feng received a transfer on WeChat.
Over 83,000 yuan.
This was Guo Yanru's medical expenses at Ronald Hospital.
Next, Guo Yanru's call came: "Brother, I've transferred the medical fees to you."
"Is your stomach better?"
Lin Feng frowned and asked.
"Pretty much! I've been in the hospital for over a week; if I don't go back to work, the company will fire me."
While speaking, Guo Yanru's tone was languid, with the sound of splashing water.
Obviously she was taking a shower.
"Remember, you can't drink alcohol during this period!" Lin Feng reminded.
"Got it! I'm still in the shower! I'll treat you to a meal another day, bye!"
Having said that, she hung up directly.
Lin Feng shook his head.
"When the sky wants to rain and the mother wants to remarry, he cannot force Guo Yanru."
Everyone has their own persistence.
It was already past six in the evening, and Lin Feng was about to boil a bowl of noodles to make do for dinner.
The phone rang again.
The caller ID showed it was Liang Shishi calling.
"Xiao Feng, come over quickly; Aunt needs you."
Liang Shishi's slightly tired voice came from the phone.
"Yes, ma'am, Aunt!"
After hanging up, Lin Feng immediately put on his coat and went downstairs.
Then he drove to the Jinhu Huayuan residential complex.
Building Six, Apartment 901.
The password lock had not been changed.
After entering, Lin Feng found the place cleaner than before.
The floor was so shiny it could reflect a person's silhouette.
This aunt also loves cleanliness.
Having just showered, Liang Shishi in black silk pajamas was lying on the sofa.
Seeing Lin Feng enter and change shoes, she languidly said, "Come, like last time, give Aunt a rub."
"I'm going to charge you for this!"
Lin Feng joked.
"Sure! As long as your technique is professional and makes Aunt comfortable, I'll pay you at the rate of a club masseuse."
Lin Feng rolled his eyes, "Come on! You're still living in my house, you poor ghost."
"Just know that!"
Liang Shishi looked smug.
As usual, starting with shoulder kneading.
Lin Feng's breath caught suddenly.
Not seeing the shoulder strap, this aunt is getting more and more brazen!
Lin Feng could only pretend not to notice.
After barely getting through it, Lin Feng involuntarily let out a sigh.
Liang Shishi turned over, smiling, "The back's done; now the front."
"Come on! I have my limits!"
Having said that, Lin Feng picked up the coat placed on the sofa's backrest, preparing to leave.
Liang Shishi hurriedly said, "Forget it! I won't make things difficult for you, you little brat—you've grown up and your soul isn't pure anymore."
Lin Feng retorted, "It's you who's not pure of heart!"
Liang Shishi got up, went to the liquor cabinet, took a cup and poured Lin Feng a glass of red wine.
She also took a cup for herself and sat down on the sofa.
Lin Feng picked up the remote and opened the living room curtains.
Although the 9th floor isn't high, the apartment's living room faces an open area outside.
Not only can you see part of the city nightscape, but you can also see the stars scattered across the sky.
Such a city nightscape easily calms people's emotions.
Lin Feng and Liang Shishi just sat on the sofa like that, remaining silent for a long time.
"I called you over today; giving Aunt a massage is secondary. The main thing is I want to introduce a business opportunity to you—see if you're willing to invest."
After Liang Shishi came to her senses, she said lightly.
"What business?" Lin Feng asked kindly.
Liang Shishi explained it in detail.
It turned out to be a request for Lin Feng to invest in a company that makes web games.
Lin Feng thought for a moment; the business his aunt introduced was indeed good.
These past two years have been the golden period for web game development, and that game company's products are quite good.
However, the boom period for web games is not long.
Soon, they will be replaced by mobile games.
Investing some money now will yield a profit of two or three times in a year or two—no problem.
But for Lin Feng, the return rate is still too low.
His gaze, however, is fixed on the future.
"Forget it!"
After thinking it over, Lin Feng shook his head.
As soon as he finished speaking, Liang Shishi pinched him.
"Kid, you really plan to stay a landlord until you die of old age! If you lack ambition, Aunt will give your parents a proper scolding for you!"
Lin Feng chuckled, "Come on, Aunt! When you were young you were even more rebellious than I am. My parents, before they passed, told me to be conservative and live a steady life."
Liang Shishi smiled slightly, bent down, took out an envelope from the tea table's drawer, and handed it to Lin Feng.
Lin Feng took the envelope, opened it, and pulled out a sheet of paper.
The handwriting on the paper was very familiar—wasn't it written by my mother?
The general content of the letter made Liang Shishi glance at Lin Feng a few times.
If Lin Feng gets arrogant, she will discipline him properly.
After reading the letter, Lin Feng sighed helplessly, "This old couple still wants to manage things even after they're dead!"
Lin Feng could understand.
According to that previous timid personality, without someone watching over him, it really wouldn't work!
Soon Lin Feng came to himself, furrowed his brows and said, "Aunt, isn't there more than just this letter? There's still more, right?"
Liang Shishi spread her hands, "No, that's the only one."
If Aunt doesn't produce it, Lin Feng can't do anything.
"Aunt, do you know any experts in financial investment, preferably the kind of elite who work on Wall Street?"
Lin Feng said solemnly.
"What do you want to do?"
Liang Shishi asked curiously.
"I want to find a few people to trade stocks for me, invest in game companies—where can you make money fast in the stock market? Domestically! Retail investors have already suffered enough; we won't cut the leeks, we'd rather earn money overseas with peace of mind."
Liang Shishi considered it, then nodded, "All right! Tomorrow… I almost forgot the time difference; I'll help you get in touch shortly!"
"Let's go!"
Lin Feng stood up, put on his jacket, and went out.
After Lin Feng left, Liang Shishi took out another sheet of paper from the drawer.
The general content of this paper is that Liang Shishi and Lin Feng have no blood relation, and they should look after each other from now on.
Their ages differ by just a few years; son Lin Feng is so handsome and honest,
If Liang Shishi feels tired and wants to rely on a man, the two can live together.
If Liang Shishi doesn't like Lin Feng, or can't get past that ethical hurdle, then when Lin Feng looks for a girlfriend, he should help her vet her.
The girlfriend Lin Feng is currently seeing, Liu Na, is not a good woman; they must not be allowed to marry!
On the other hand, the girl named Wen Keke living in Jinhuxiaoqu is not bad.
Unfortunately, time is short; there's no chance to arrange it…
Liang Shishi again stared blankly into space.
This letter was received by her this afternoon; the messenger was the nanny Wang Aunt who had served the old couple before they passed.
If it were the former timid and introverted Lin Feng, Liang Shishi would surely not have taken a liking to him.
But now it's different.
Getting along with Lin Feng feels very natural and very happy.
"This kid is now sharper than a monkey; I don't even need to watch him…"
After muttering to herself, Liang Shishi picked up a lighter and burned this sheet of paper.
At the same moment.
In the underground parking garage, Lin Feng called Wang Aunt's phone.
"Wang Aunt, did my parents leave anything behind, or did they leave any instructions?"
After the call connected, Lin Feng asked.
Wang Aunt hurriedly said, "Xiao Feng, I really don't know the content of that letter!"
Wang Aunt's tone sounded a bit nervous.
Lin Feng laughed and said, "Wang Aunt, I'm not blaming you! I'm just asking."
Aunt Wang said: "Gone! Really gone! They can't foresee the future; they were just worried about that woman named Liu Na. Now you've resolved the matter yourself, and you're so clever and capable, they, if they know in the afterlife, will surely be happy."
Lin Feng gave a bitter smile and said: "I actually hope there still are, from time to time I can receive their instructions, feeling as if they are still alive..."
As he spoke, Lin Feng's eye sockets turned red.
Parental care is the most precious thing in this world.
On the other end of the phone, Aunt Wang also began to cry, murmuringly recounting the good times the elderly couple had while alive.
