Fear of Marriage _1 Lin Chen could sense that Feng Yazhen was quite excited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps it was because of her relationship with her mother, or perhaps it was the surprise of suddenly having a 27-year-old nephew.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let me tell you, I have admired your mom since I was little, especially after I became an adult.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I admire her even more.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“As you know, the Feng family is considered one of the wealthy families.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Daughters from wealthy families rarely have much say in their marriages.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if they are given some freedom, they still have to follow the rule of marrying someone of equal social status.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I can remain unmarried and free today, thanks to your mom.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your mom eloped for love back then and never looked back, which made your maternal grandparents really angry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But with your mom as a precedent, they have not been too strict with me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Plus, I have been abroad for years, so they’re worried that I might follow your mom’s example and marry someone overseas, never coming back.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen listened to Feng Yazhen’s words while scrolling through the photos she saved with his mouse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the photos, Lin Yuan was looking handsome and elegant, with a hint of toughness in his scholarly demeanor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feng Lan was as delicate as a flower, and her face showed happiness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feng Yazhen, the third wheel, wore a dress, either sticking to Feng Lan or Lin Yuan, looking innocent, and extremely happy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Aunt, why haven’t you gotten married yet?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feng Yazhen crossed her legs and laughed, “I haven’t met the right person yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Marriage is a lifetime commitment, so I shouldn’t rush.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, with my personality, men may like to be friends with me or even date me, but there aren’t many who would want to marry me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen looked sideways at Feng Yazhen and asked curiously, “You’re quite pretty, so why wouldn’t they want to marry you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feng Yazhen laughed, “Do you want to marry a woman who’s like a queen?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, I’m good at beating people up, so who would dare to marry me since some of those men would lose a fight against me?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They’re all playboys who would probably worry about becoming eunuchs in their sleep after marrying me…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And, how nice it is to be single now!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I can date and have fun as I please, without any constraints.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If I got married and had kids, wouldn’t that kind of life be dull?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen couldn’t help but laugh, “It sounds like you have a bit of a fear of marriage.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feng Yazhen chuckled, “Pretty much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anyway, I’m the youngest in the family, and I have two older brothers, so whether I get married or not doesn’t really matter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My grandparents have given up on me and left me alone.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen’s scrolling suddenly stopped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the computer screen was a family photo with his mother holding a baby and his father squatting beside them, playing with the baby’s finger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The baby was laughing, the mother was smiling gently, and the father was laughing heartily…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is the only family photo your mom sent me after you were born.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen felt emotional, “Can you send it to me?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course, why don’t you make a copy of all the photos?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although you don’t have any memories of them, they must have loved you dearly.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen took out his phone and made a copy of all the photos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feng Yazhen checked the time and smiled, “Your eldest uncle’s family has arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Let’s go downstairs.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen had already adjusted his mentality by now and smiled, “Okay!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen didn’t have a good impression of wealthy families.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most of the ones he had encountered were far from clean.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, he didn’t have any expectations for this visit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the attitudes of his two grandparents and his aunt had exceeded his expectations so far.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen and Feng Yazhen went downstairs, where it was already getting lively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The eldest uncle’s family of five had arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eldest uncle Feng Shujie, his wife Luo Yuran, their son Feng Hang, their younger son Feng Hao, and their daughter Feng Tangtang, all had their eyes on Lin Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feng Shujie looked at Lin Chen and laughed, “He looks just like Lin Yuan!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They could be molded from the same mold!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Yuran, the eldest uncle’s wife, sighed with a smile, “His father looked just like this back then, and in the blink of an eye, the child has grown so big.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time really flies.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feng Shujie walked over, patted Lin Chen’s shoulder, and laughed, “You look great!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’m your eldest uncle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter what happened in the past, it’s good that you’re back now!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon after, Feng Shuying, the second uncle, and his family of four arrived, making the house even more lively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Through the greetings, Lin Chen learned that his father and mother were already in love when his eldest uncle and aunt got married.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yuan had spent some time in Xijing back then, so they were familiar with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among the group of elders, only the second uncle’s wife hadn’t seen Lin Yuan and Feng Lan together because she married Feng Shuying after everything had happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the dining table, the elders were all very enthusiastic towards Lin Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the younger generation wasn’t particularly close, they still observed the necessary etiquette.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After dinner, Feng Hao received a phone call and started to ask for leave, “Dad, Zhou Jun and the others invited me to hang out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’ll go first.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feng Tangtang’s eyes lit up at once, “Brother, I want to go too.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feng Shujie glanced at Lin Chen sitting on the side and said with a smile, “Young people should play with other young people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s boring for them to sit with a group of elders like us.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen, why don’t you go with Xiao Hao, Tangtang, and the others?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’ll be a chance for you to get to know each other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Hao, make sure to send your cousin back to his grandparents’ house later…”\u003C\u002Fp>",1035,"2026-06-06T01:51:32.142Z",1,"novelbin.me","30d28d57c472e7c440529e370bd1462c71fb7e261a71a554baad0d6ff832bf5f","urban-peerless-expert-chapter-397","urban-peerless-expert-chapter-395",4071,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Furban-peerless-expert-cover.jpg"]
