Back in Xiu Zhou, Jin Xinyan was indeed waiting early at the airport to welco Chen Feng’s return.
Qin Zhen, upon seeing Jin Xinyan’s appearance, could understand why Chen Feng had taken the risk to go to the Red Demon Country for her father.
However, he couldn’t help but feel a pang of envy and jealousy towards Chen Feng.
But now that he had t Pei Lei, he wasn’t too envious of Chen Feng.
During the special flight to Shanghai, Pei Lei had separated from her family and returned to Xiu Zhou alone with Qin Zhen. Of course, she mainly ca for work, not specifically for Qin Zhen.
However, Qin Zhen was confident in pursuing her.
Jin Xinyan drove, Chen Feng sat in the passenger seat, and Qin Zhen and Pei Lei sat in the back. The four of them chatted along the way and gradually got to know each other better.
Pei Lei assud Jin Xinyan was Chen Feng’s girlfriend, so she was quite curious about how they t and asked about it throughout the journey.
After dropping off Qin Zhen and Pei Lei first, Chen Feng and Jin Xinyan finally had so private ti to talk.
"Would you like to go to my house first? My mom has already prepared a table full of delicious food for you."
Jin Xinyan’s soft and gentle request made it hard for Chen Feng to refuse. Besides, he had already slept for a few hours on the plane and wasn’t too tired, so he agreed.
At the Jin family house, Mrs. Jin had indeed prepared a lavish feast on the table.
Chen Feng hadn’t eaten much on the plane, so he didn’t stand on ceremony. As soon as he sat down, he began to eat voraciously.
Mrs. Jin and Jin Xinyan sat beside him to accompany him, and Mrs. Jin’s gaze and expression were clearly that of a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law.
At first, Chen Feng felt a bit uncomfortable being stared at, but having a thick skin, he gradually got used to it.
After finishing two bowls of rice, Mrs. Jin, with a smile, finally spoke, "Xinyan’s father and I fully support you two dating. When Xinyan’s dad cos back, if possible, we’d like to et your parents so our families can get acquainted. What do you think?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Feng almost choked on his food, but he managed to hold it in, quickly chewed, and swallowed.
Just as he was about to co up with an excuse to refuse, Jin Xinyan spoke up, "Mom, we’ve just known each other for less than two months. Let’s wait until we get to know each other better."
Mrs. Jin looked dissatisfied and said with a stern face, "What do you an by getting to know each other better? Don’t tell you’re thinking of being indecisive? Your father and I are very satisfied with Little Chen, and besides him, we absolutely oppose you dating anyone else. Besides, with such good qualities as Little Chen, truth be told, you’re the one who’s getting a better deal. Don’t hesitate or be indecisive. I think you should prepare in the next few days to et his parents with him, so we can confirm things and be at ease."
Hearing Mrs. Jin’s words left both Chen Feng and Jin Xinyan speechless.
Although Chen Feng had so foresight of the situation, he hadn’t expected the Jin family to be in such a hurry.
From Mrs. Jin’s stance, it seed they would want the two sets of parents to et and discuss marriage as soon as Jin Yongnian returned from the Red Demon Country.
This really gave Chen Feng a bit of a scare.
Fortunately, Jin Xinyan kept a clear head and didn’t try to capitalize on the situation. However, Mrs. Jin was very satisfied with Chen Feng, already treating him like a son-in-law.
This complicated matters.
Jin Xinyan felt that she was in a difficult position, thinking to herself, was it her who was undecided about settling down with him? On the contrary, it was Chen Feng who was uncertain about committing.
Additionally, Jin Xinyan worried her parents’ eagerness might scare Chen Feng away.
Truth be told, she was very satisfied with Chen Feng as well. Apart from his slightly older age, he was nearly perfect in every other way.
Of course, the biggest obstacle now was other won around Chen Feng, and to triumph over them and secure the position of the main partner, she honestly wasn’t too confident.
Previously, she approached the situation with a mindset to give it a try, finding Chen Feng pleasing to the eye and well-suited on various fronts, taking decisive action to see if she could anchor him down.
If it didn’t work out, she planned to gain enough benefits from the relationship before parting ways, assured she wouldn’t lose out.
After all, considering her youth, spending two to three years on an outstanding man like Chen Feng seed worth it.
Overall, she previously held an aloof mindset regarding her relationship with Chen Feng, treating it like a reliable investnt, knowing she wouldn’t lose out made her composed.
However, after spending so ti together, especially during her family’s most desperate ti of need when her fake boyfriend Chen Feng risked his life traveling afar to rescue her father and succeeded, her perspective changed.
Additionally, due to Chen Feng’s involvent, her father managed to recover paynts from a life-risking trade overseas.
Her fake boyfriend Chen Feng beca a hero and benefactor for her family, and her parents were grateful to him. How could she, their daughter, not be?
Chen Feng, a true man who is brave and righteous, full of courage and strategy—how many like him are there in real life?
Encountering such a person, especially one who’s relatively wealthy, in her lifeti is indeed fortunate.
After experiencing this family crisis, Jin Xinyan’s mindset had transford entirely.
Her detached attitude was gone, replaced with a determination to formalize her relationship and even marry Chen Feng.
Once people develop obsessions, letting go becos difficult.
Seeing her mother push for marriage, naturally, brought so joy to her heart, but she knew Chen Feng wouldn’t agree.
Therefore, she could only support Chen Feng, saying, "I still think there’s no need to rush. Let’s talk after Dad gets back."
"That’s fine then. Your father should be back in three or four days. We’ll discuss it then. Little Chen, what do you think?"
Chen Feng could only offer a slightly awkward smile in response.
It wasn’t suitable for him to refuse directly, especially when at their house, enjoying a ho-cooked al. But agreeing outright wasn’t wise either.
Not to ntion telling his parents might cost him a broken leg from his mom alone. Even he never considered making Jin Xinyan his girlfriend, let alone engagents or marriage.
Mrs. Jin sensed Chen Feng’s sowhat perfunctory attitude and furrowed her brow slightly. However, she couldn’t say much; after all, he had just returned from abroad at the risk of his life to save her husband.
Thus, Mrs. Jin switched the topic and asked about Chen Feng’s experience in the Red Demon Country and how he successfully rescued Jin Yongnian.
