Chapter 67: with translation of chapter title

August 4th.

In the morning.

The Guo family finally gathered together again.

Guo Yanwen and Guo Yanqiu still had the excitement from their trip on their faces.

During this time, the two of them brought their mother Qin Li and toured all the sights and temples in Yanjing.

While having breakfast, Lin Feng urged the two: "You need to focus now; since you got into university, you should study hard."

Guo Yanwen immediately replied: "Got it, brother-in-law!"

Guo Yanru had to catch a flight to Xiangjiang in the morning; she might not return for a while, and she also gave a few words to her younger brother and sister.

Lin Feng looked at Qin Li and said: "Mom, why don't you just stay in Yanjing?"

Qin Li shook her head: "No, I'm not used to being here. I still feel more comfortable at home."

"Well... you come stay for a period each year, would that work?" Lin Feng suggested.

He thought that if Qin Li came every year, she would gradually get used to life in Yanjing and treat this place as her own home.

Okay!

Qin Li nodded in agreement, then added: "Yanru is not young anymore; you should consider having a child. If you have a child, I'll come over specifically to take care of the baby."

Guo Yanru furrowed her brows slightly.

Lin Feng, however, laughed: "That's great! Then I and Yanru will hurry up and do it."

Guo Yanru's face lit up, and she gave Lin Feng an annoyed glance.

Guo Yanwen and Guo Yanqiu felt embarrassed, lowering their heads and laughing.

During this time, Qin Li went to the temple: first, to pray to the Buddha to bless her deceased husband for a good rebirth; second, to pray for Lin Feng and Guo Yanru to have a child.

After saying a few more words about Lin Feng and Guo Yanru, Guo Yanwen brought up the matter of going home.

Since the mother wanted to go home, the two of them naturally had to see her all the way back.

In mid-month, they also needed to participate in some activities organized by the school to promote admissions for their alma mater.

Furthermore, they still had to host a banquet at home, inviting relatives and neighbors for a meal.

Before September 1st, they will return to Yanjing.

After breakfast, Lin Feng drove Guo Yanru's sports car and took her to the airport.

Before getting out of the car, Guo Yanru frowned and said: "Don't take my mother's words to heart; she's just an old person."

Guo Yanru was talking about having a child.

Lin Feng laughed: "If you can have a child, then do it! I haven't stopped you. By the way, how's your illness? Get it treated?"

The last time Guo Yanru's stomach ailment flared up, the examination revealed she had fertility issues.

Guo Yanru said: "I had a minor surgery; it's almost healed, right?"

Lin Feng chuckled: "Then when you come back, we'll put in extra effort, so we don't make the old lady wait too anxiously."

Guo Yanru stared blankly at Lin Feng.

"What's wrong?" Lin Feng asked.

Guo Yanru flung herself into Lin Feng's arms, calling out: "Husband!"

After saying that, she kissed Lin Feng and happily got out of the car.

In the afternoon, Lin Feng also sent Guo Yanwen, Guo Yanqiu, and Qin Li to the airport.

After returning to the villa, the maid Tian Cui, looking embarrassed, said: "Lin Feng, everyone's gone; now I'm the only one left here..."

Lin Feng laughed: "Aunt Tian, just stay here! I can't fire you just because everyone left; what will we do when they come back?"

"Isn't this money too easy to earn?" Tian Cui said, blushing.

Lin Feng gave her a monthly salary of 8,000 yuan, with big red envelopes during holidays, making her annual income exceed 100,000 yuan.

Moreover, she receives free room and board, staying in a luxurious suite of the large villa.

Nowadays, ordinary white-collar workers cannot earn that much money or enjoy such living conditions.

Lin Feng pointed at the large villa and said: "With so many rooms and places to clean, it's not easy at all!"

"Hey! As long as you keep up with it daily, it's quite easy."

Lin Feng said: "I probably won't be coming over these few days; please lock the door at night."

"Okay, okay!" Tian Cui nodded repeatedly.

In the evening, Lin Feng returned to his apartment in the Heaven's Abode Auspicious Scenery Community.

He spent the night organizing his data.

In the morning, before eight o'clock, Tang Mi called.

"Handsome guy, are you awake yet?"

Tang Mi's clear voice sounded.

Lin Feng murmured: "Can it be a bit later? I want to catch up on some sleep."

Tang Mi immediately replied: "It's almost eight! Since you're awake, get up quickly..."

Lin Feng suddenly realized that Tang Mi and the Bei family triplets are comparable in that they never stop talking.

He opened his laptop, searched a small website, and clicked on it.

It's 2012 now, and one can still find a large number of short films online.

Teacher Cang hasn't retired yet, and his fame remains very high.

"Is there someone sleeping nearby..."

Just as Tang Mi said that, Lin Feng placed his phone next to the laptop's speaker.

Then...

Indeed! Shameless!

Upon hearing it, Tang Mi cursed and hung up the phone.

Finally, it's quiet!

The day passed quickly.

It was 6:30 p. m.

Lin Feng felt a bit regretful.

Just like that, a deal fell through!

How impulsive, truly too impulsive!

Next time, I must not act like this again!

Always remember: the customer is God.

You can fall out with anyone, but don't fall out with money!

Lin Feng had thought Tang Mi's matter was settled.

But at seven, Tang Mi suddenly called.

"Miss Tang, hello! I'm happy to serve you!"

After the call connected, Lin Feng, having reflected on his poor morning performance, spoke very politely.

Tang Mi's tone also sounded a bit odd: "Lin Feng, are you free now?"

"I'm free, even if I'm not, I'll make time!" Lin Feng hurriedly said.

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Feng heard a faint laugh from the phone.

It sounded like an old man's voice.

Then Tang Mi softly said: "Lin Feng, if you have time, could you come to my place? My grandfather, father, and mother want to meet you."

"Ah~"

Lin Feng exclaimed, "Miss Tang, it's just renting a place; do I really need to meet your family?"

"Are you coming or not? If you don't come, I won't rent!" Tang Mi shouted.

Lin Feng furrowed his brow, "Hmm..."

He was wondering whether to go see that old Mr. Tang.

"Come or not? If not, forget it!"

Again, Tang Mi's impatient voice came from the phone.

"Just give me the address," Lin Feng said calmly.

Tang Mi's voice, clearly spoken through gritted teeth, said: "Badaling, this way..."

After Tang Mi gave the address, Lin Feng raised his hand, checked his watch, and said: "I'll be there within an hour."

As soon as he finished speaking, Tang Mi hung up.

Lin Feng didn't set off right away; instead, he sat down to think for a few minutes.

He thought, the older generation is very stubborn.

If his parents were still alive, meeting the Tang family's return would likely mean arranging an engagement banquet.

Although he had no such intention, Lin Feng still felt he ought to take it seriously.

So he took a shower, put on a black suit, tied a tie, and combed his hair neat and shiny.

Looking at himself in the mirror, from any angle he was nothing but handsome—there was no other word to describe him.

Forty minutes later, Lin Feng's black Porsche arrived at the gate of a villa area.

Tang Mi was already waiting at the gate.

The petite Tang Mi, dressed in a white cheongsam, looked gentle and virtuous.

Lin Feng got out of the car and opened the passenger door.

Tang Mi got into the car, pouting.

After getting back in the car, Lin Feng laughed and said: "Tang Mi, forcing me into this blind date—you'll have to pay for it, right?"

Tang Mi frowned and said: "Don't be poor! Later, when we get home, if my grandfather asks you something, you should say something pleasant. Otherwise, if he gets angry, you'll be in trouble."

"Got it!" Lin Feng promised.

After starting the car, Lin Feng's mouth curled up.

"Speak nicely?"

"He wouldn't do that!"

It's best if things like this fall through.

If it weren't for the fact that the Tang family's elder and his deceased parents were old friends, he wouldn't bother to show up.
