Hong Siyu sighed again, echoing, "Exactly. On the surface, Sun Xiaorui seems proper and pure, but who knew she was actually being kept? It's truly shaless."
As she finished speaking, the car fell into silence.
Several minutes later, Hong Siyu couldn't help but break the silence, comforting, "Sis, you must be feeling really hurt, right? It's tough on you to interact with Sun Xiaorui as if everything's fine. You're really going through a lot!"
Wu ngting thought to herself, compared to Chen Feng's other won, though Sun Xiaorui posed a significant threat, she was still sowhat manageable.
"I have no choice. A man like Brother Feng is very sought after, and I don't want to just hand him over to soone else. So, I can only put up with so of his flaws temporarily. I believe that in the end, everything will clear up, and I'll see the moonlight."
Hong Siyu sighed, "Sigh! I initially thought he hadn't touched you because he was so devoted and respectful towards you. But as it turns out, he's never short of won. Are there any good n left in this world?"
Wu ngting defended Chen Feng, "Brother Feng is actually a good man, just a bit of a philanderer. But a philanderer isn't necessarily a bad man. Of course, you should take my experience as a lesson: when you're looking for a boyfriend, avoid the philandering type. If you find out he's like that, it's best to break up with him imdiately, without hesitation. Otherwise, you'll just cause yourself grief in the future."
"Hmph, I'm not even looking for a boyfriend. Those guys at school are all so immature and brainless. Not a single one catches my eye."
Her aunt ignored her daughter's words and asked Wu ngting again, "Do your parents know about this?"
Wu ngting said, "They don't know yet. I don't want to tell them. I also hope you and Siyu can keep this a secret for . If my parents find out, it won't be good. Aunt, please rember that."
Her aunt sighed, "Alright, alright. As long as when your six-month tiline is up, Chen Feng can be with you properly, it'd be best to get engaged and married within this year."
Hong Siyu suddenly said, "Sis, I still think you need to reconsider. Since your brother-in-law—I an, Chen Feng is such a philanderer, and even arranged for a mistress to live with you without respecting you. Even if six months pass and he separates from Sun Xiaorui, there's no guarantee he won't find soone else in the future. Once unfaithful, always useless. Listen to , you'd be better off breaking up with him. With your conditions, finding soone good will be very easy."
"Siyu, what nonsense are you saying?" Her aunt was genuinely upset this ti, glaring angrily at Hong Siyu and scolding loudly, "This is grown-up business. Why is a child like you ddling?"
Hong Siyu retorted, "Did I say anything wrong? Look how he's treating my sister. He doesn't respect her at all..."
"Enough. Wait until we get ho and I'll deal with you." Her aunt was so angry she pointed a finger at her daughter. She was sitting in the passenger seat, and Hong Siyu was in the back. If the car weren't moving, she might have stood up to pinch her right there.
Hong Siyu sat there muttering angrily.
Her aunt saw this and fud, "You obstinate girl! Chen Feng helped our family. If it weren't for his help in finding a lawyer for your dad, could your dad have gotten a lighter sentence? Besides, with his excellent conditions and your sister's love for him, why give him up? Before making reckless suggestions, use your brain. You claim you're 19, but I think you're not even as sensible as a 9-year-old. Even a 9-year-old knows to be grateful."
Hong Siyu's eyes reddened from her mom's harsh words, and she mumbled, "I'm just speaking out. He may have helped our family, but sis is our own. Of course, we should stand by her."
About to scold her further, her aunt was stopped by Wu ngting: "Enough, Aunt. Don't be hard on her. Siyu ans well, and she has a point. It's just that she doesn't quite understand society and n yet."
Pausing, she continued, "Siyu, your mom was right. There's not a single man out there who isn't a philanderer, especially wealthy n. Truly, compared to other wealthy n, Brother Feng is relatively restrained. Though he might be a bit of a philanderer, at least he doesn't go overboard.
Other than indulging in pleasures every night, many wealthy n indulge in gambling, drinking, and other vices. In comparison, Brother Feng doesn't gamble, smoke, or indulge excessively in alcohol, and even his eating habits are quite moderate.
So really, he's a rare good man among the rich. Moreover, deep down, I still love him and don't want to break up. Instead, I want to hold onto him tightly. You haven't truly fallen for a man yet, so you don't understand this feeling. Once you find soone you truly care for, you'll get it."
Hong Siyu reflected silently upon these words, settling down.
...
Finally, Chen Feng decided not to return to Lu City with Wu ngting. The reason was simple: laziness. He was comfortable and at ease here, with no shortage of food, drink, or beautiful won. He didn't want to go back ho and be nagged by his parents.
Chen Feng wasn't unfilial; he did miss his parents a bit, but with modern communication, a video call was all it took to see them and chat for a long ti.
Going back wasn't necessary, and living with his parents daily, despite its comforts, would clash sowhat with his own lifestyle and social habits, differing from the older generation's views.
Yet, only a couple of days into resuming life with Sun Xiaorui, his mom Zhao Xiaolan sent a video call.
Answering, his mom Zhao Xiaolan appeared displeased, saying, "Mao Xiaoling is just too much. She hasn't married your uncle, yet she keeps withholding money from him. Anyti he has money, she finds excuses to take it away.
She even uses the excuse of helping her mom with the store to have him ferry her two kids around, claiming it's to help them bond.
What's worse, she won't even let your uncle eat with them. I only found out today that when I'm not around, your uncle eats alone at restaurants. Eating separately—does this even count as family? Mao Xiaoling doesn't consider your uncle as family at all."
Upon hearing this, Chen Feng was irritated. If what his mom said was true, then Mao Xiaoling was outright shaless.
They set her and her mother up with a mini-mart, basically handing them money, yet she wasn't satisfied or kind to his uncle.
Clearly, she was treating his uncle and their family like suckers to be conned, like fools to be played.
