This made her feel like Chen Feng was having an affair with a mistress, cleaning up after the fact, and she was that mistress.
Chen Feng spent a few minutes wrapping things up before saying to Jin Xinyan, "It’s getting late; they’ll be back soon if we wait any longer."
Feeling like a mistress herself, Jin Xinyan couldn’t help but have mixed emotions, but she was a clever woman. Instead of throwing a tantrum at Chen Feng, she joked while smiling, "Otherwise, I’ll stay and et them. After all, they already know about my relationship with you. I’ve t Sister ngting; what’s your other woman’s na? I don’t know her yet."
Chen Feng naturally disagreed, shaking his head, "How can you et them under these circumstances? I haven’t told them upfront that I brought you over. Besides, I had an agreent with them beforehand; I wouldn’t bring other won here. Furthermore, I won’t let another woman live here. It’s only due to special circumstances that I brought you this ti. If you want to et them, let’s wait for another opportunity."
Upon hearing this, Jin Xinyan very obediently nodded, "Alright. I’ll listen to you."
An obedient woman always gives a man a sense of achievent and satisfaction, especially one who is obedient and beautiful. Chen Feng was no exception.
"Then let’s go. I’ll escort you downstairs."
Jin Xinyan followed Chen Feng down the stairs, and then an earring with a diamond stud accidentally fell onto the floor. Before coming out of the bedroom, she noticed the small earring had fallen at the edge of the chair.
They both went downstairs, one after another, only to see Sister Xue busily working in the kitchen.
Sister Xue noticed them too. Initially, she intended to co over and greet Chen Feng, but upon seeing Jin Xinyan following behind him, her expression stiffened.
Hence, Sister Xue rely smiled at Chen Feng, refraining from greeting him, and went back to hiding in the kitchen.
She’s been a housekeeper for years, having co across similar situations before, pretending not to see it is the best course.
Seeing Sister Xue’s reaction, Jin Xinyan couldn’t help but smile faintly, finding it amusing.
She could tell at a glance that Sister Xue was a housekeeper, and barring any surprises, she felt that the housekeeper would ultimately inform ngting and the others of her visit today.
Chen Feng didn’t care much about being seen by Sister Xue; he believed Sister Xue wouldn’t ntion it to Sun and Wu because it’s Chen Feng who pays her salary, not Sun and Wu.
Moreover, Chen Feng was rely cohabiting with Sun and Wu; they weren’t even considered boyfriend and girlfriend. With this ti of contact, Sister Xue must have figured it out long ago.
Therefore, even if she tells Sun and Wu what she saw today, it wouldn’t be a righteous act.
As long as she isn’t foolish, she wouldn’t spread rumors recklessly.
Watching Jin Xinyan’s car drive out of his villa gate, Chen Feng returned to his room, imdiately falling asleep upon lying down.
When he woke up, it was already past three in the afternoon.
He had slept for over five hours, indicative of serious jet lag.
After quickly washing up, hunger pangs hit him, prompting him to go downstairs to eat. On the table, he found a note from Wu ngting, indicating several dishes were warming in the kitchen, which delighted Chen Feng.
After quickly finishing his al, Chen Feng finally had the ti to check unread ssages on his phone.
Sun and Wu didn’t ssage him this ti; however, Lin Yujiao sent a text, stating that her parents would return ho in two days, allowing her to co to Xiu Zhou.
Chen Feng replied with an "ok."
Guo ngyao also sent a ssage, grumbling about the blind date her parents arranged for her. She complained the date was a typical nouveau riche, wealthy yet uncouth, and older than her with children. She didn’t wish to beco a stepmother.
Then, Guo ngyao said she’s been forced by her parents to "confess," claiming she already has a romantic partner—Chen Feng—and that their long-distance relationship is challenging, so they don’t plan on remarrying anyti soon.
Finally, she ntioned her parents hope to et with him soon. If Chen Feng doesn’t have ti to return to Xiu Zhou, they intend to visit him in Xiu Zhou themselves in the coming days.
Seeing this ssage gave Chen Feng a headache; though he had t parents several tis, so could be considered experienced, Guo ngyao’s case was clearly different.
Firstly, they were high school classmates; if news spreads about him dating Guo ngyao, it could spread through the alumni group, creating a fait accompli.
Secondly, both families reside in Lin Nan County. Her parents eting his parents would be far too easy. They could even effortlessly find out where his family lives.
Chen Feng never intended to date Guo ngyao, let alone marry her, which would definitely be quite troubleso.
Simply put, if a fait accompli of dating Guo ngyao occurs, it would be difficult to break up, involve many loose ends, and possibly co at a high cost.
[Are you ssing around? Doing this puts in an awkward, difficult position.]
Chen Feng directly sent a voice ssage.
It took two or three minutes before Guo ngyao replied with a text: [I thought you disappeared? Now you have ti to reply to ?]
Chen Feng didn’t beat around the bush, sending another voice ssage: [You should tell your parents the truth; we aren’t actually dating.]
[You’re being excessive. We have a sowhat intimate relationship now, closer than re friends or classmates. Can’t you help handle my parents’ pressure to marry? Isn’t that so hard?]
[Of course it’s hard. Our families are in the sa county; if your parents take it seriously, they’ll easily find out my family’s situation, maybe even directly eting my parents. What then?]
[If that’s the case, then let’s simply beco a couple. I think I’m more than suitable for you, right?]
[Who gave you such confidence??] Chen Feng retorted bluntly.
Guo ngyao sent an angry face emoji, followed by a voice ssage: [Chen Feng, you’re being unreasonable. Aren’t I suitable for you?]
[It’s not about being suitable; it’s about us not being compatible.]
[How are we not compatible? We were classmates for three years in high school, know each other for several years, and have emotional foundations. I’m not bad looking, worth several million, and not old. Where am I unsuitable for you?]
[I said we’re not compatible.]
[Then tell , where am I not suitable?]
[First, you’re a strong-willed woman, not my type, at least not my ideal wife candidate; second, you’re too driven as a woman, I don’t like soone pushing the limits in career; I want a wife focused on family, not a business partner. Third, I prefer gentle won whom I can protect and rely on, who won’t easily leave , giving a sense of security; whereas you handle everything yourself without needing anyone’s support.]
After sending this blunt ssage, Chen Feng didn’t receive a reply from her for a long ti.
