After playing with them for a while, the two little girls had already affectionately started calling her "Sister."
Chen Feng laughed and said, "You should be calling her ’Auntie,’ actually."
But Little Yu protested, "No, no, that’s not right. My mom says that pretty aunties should be called ’sister.’"
Everyone burst into laughter at this comnt, and Wu ngting happily hugged her and kissed her on the cheek.
Right amid the lively scene, Chen Feng’s phone started ringing. He was surprised to see that it was Fang Xiaoyue calling. Though puzzled, he answered the call.
"Xiao Yue, is sothing the matter?" he casually asked while walking towards the door. It was too boisterous inside.
"Chen Feng, I’m in trouble this ti," Fang Xiaoyue said somberly. "Wang Kangjian’s family now has a big problem with ; they think it’s my fault he was hit by a car. I’m afraid they might take revenge on . What do you think I should do?"
Chen Feng was speechless for a mont, thinking to himself, why are you asking about this? Indeed, we are classmates, but we’re not that close. And what does this have to do with ? Why drag into it?
Despite his thoughts, he obviously couldn’t voice them. After hesitating, he still offered reassurance, "I think they’re just upset right now. Once they’ve cald down, they’ll surely stop blaming you. After all, we all know it’s not your fault."
"But it was who asked Wang Kangjian out last night... and I insisted on inviting him over phone calls and ssages; he didn’t want to co at first... And then, who knew sothing like this would happen... His family is very wealthy, and I really don’t know what to do. Chen Feng, could you think of a way to help ?"
Fang Xiaoyue was clearly panicking, almost like soone desperately seeking a cure.
Chen Feng fell silent again for a while before responding, "What could I possibly do? I don’t even know this Wang Kangjian, let alone his family."
"His dad is Wang Guowei, the chairman of Lin Nan Leather. You must have heard of him."
Chen Feng, coming to a realization after a brief pause, said, "I’ve heard of Lin Nan Leather, no wonder Wang Kangjian acts so arrogantly."
Fang Xiaoyue replied with a bitter smile, "Chen Feng, please help think of sothing. As far as I can see, you’re the only one who could help."
"Why’s that?" Chen Feng asked, sowhat puzzled.
"Because you’re rich. Wang Fang told you put up hundreds of thousands to help your brother set up a car wash and even more to buy insurance for your parents. So, you must know so influential people; I hope you could ask soone significant to diate for ."
For the third ti, Chen Feng was at a loss for words. What kind of reasoning was this?
"Xiao Yue, I have so money, sure, but the boss of Lin Nan Leather has assets worth at least several billion, right? How can a small fry like compare with him? Besides, you know my family background and circumstances; a country bumpkin like , how could I know any prominent people?
If there’s anyone, it’d only be Mr. Zheng’s daughter, your Mr. Feng. I suggest if you really need soone to diate, you should ask Mr. Feng, after all, tanneries are key polluters, and regardless of Lin Nan Leather’s clout, they’d still have to give Mr. Feng so face."
Fang Xiaoyue sighed, "No use. Mr. Feng called into his office today and gave a harsh scolding, telling to lower my sights when matchmaking in the future and find soone with a similar social standing. Obviously, Wang Guowei put pressure on him. Luckily, I’m a student of his wife’s, so he didn’t give too hard a ti, just a stern talking-to."
