Chapter 76: The Past

Chapter 76: Chapter 76: The Past

Ling Feng found himself in a dilemma, should he refuse or agree? Facing Bai Feifei’s sister, he really couldn’t bring himself to say no, especially after they had spent the night together. Now, openly refusing might seem as if he was taking advantage and then denying responsibility, right?

But under his current circumstances, he couldn’t reciprocate Bai Feifei’s feelings either.

"Forget it, I can’t manage this matter anyways!" Suddenly, Xiaoxiao said, "I’m just Feifei’s sister! But Ling Feng, Feifei’s mom already knows about this, I think it’s better if you talk to Feifei’s mom yourself!"

As she spoke, Xiaoxiao stood up, took out a business card from her purse, and said, "This is Feifei’s home address. Tonight at six, go there and explain everything properly! If you are a man, don’t run away from this matter, okay?"

Ling Feng breathed a sigh of relief. He hadn’t expected Xiaoxiao to be so "understanding." But this was probably for the best; in facing Feifei’s family, speaking openly, he at least wouldn’t damage his friendship with Bai Feifei.

"Alright, I understand! I will definitely go!" Ling Feng took the business card and said.

A satisfied expression appeared on Xiaoxiao’s face: "Then I’ll be going now... Oh right, I almost forgot to tell you something. Although I bought Feifei’s underwear, they’re all cheap goods bought online, without any serial numbers or anything. I was just bluffing you earlier, and I can’t believe you actually believed it... Ah, what a naive boy you are!"

Ling Feng was flabbergasted, this... was Bai Feifei’s sister some kind of demon?

After Xiaoxiao left, Ling Feng thought for a moment, then dialed Bai Feifei’s number, but her phone was turned off the entire time.

"Forget it, it’s just a trip to Feifei’s home; it’s not like I’m entering a den of dragons and tigers!" Ling Feng glanced at the business card, then turned around, locked the door, and left.

Leaving Jinghua Community, Xiaoxiao had an excited and proud look on her face: "Feifei, you little rascal, quietly hooking up with such a stylish and handsome guy... Tsk tsk, your taste is really not bad! After worrying so much about you not being able to get married... But looking at this young hunk, Feifei didn’t even lose her virginity, really disappointing! Looks like I’ll have to give an assist myself!"

While driving, she dialed a number: "Third Little Sister, come over to your second sister’s house tonight... What’s the matter? Of course, it’s about looking out for your niece... Yes yes, Feifei’s boyfriend is coming over!"

"Is Big Sister free tonight? Feifei’s boyfriend is coming over..."

"Fourth Sister, it’s Second Sister’s treat today... I’ve always been generous, you know... Also, help check out what Feifei’s boyfriend is like!"

...

After making over ten calls, Mu Xiao hummed a song, feeling triumphant. Before, you all said my Feifei was a tomboy, that she wouldn’t get married. Today, I’ll let you see, our Feifei has a boyfriend too!

Right after leaving the house, Ling Feng received a call from Uncle Yun.

"Uncle Yun, are you looking for me?"

"Can’t I call you if there’s nothing important?" Yun Yang’s hearty voice came over the phone: "Are you free today? Come and help me out!"

"Sure thing, I’ll be right over!"

Within ten minutes, Ling Feng arrived at Yun Yang’s house.

Yun Yang was dressed formally, in a suit and polished shoes, his hair combed without a strand out of place.

"Geez, Uncle Yun, all dressed up, where are you off to looking so handsome!" Ling Feng teased: "Aunt Yun, are you really not worried about Uncle Yun going out like this?"

"Why worry? At his age, even if he has the intentions, he lacks the courage!" Aunt Yun said with a chuckle: "Right, Old Yun?"

"What do you mean by having the mind of a thief but not the guts?" Yun Yang said indignantly, "With my charm as an old man, I am definitely the epitome of a dreamy uncle in the eyes of young girls, I..."

Aunt Yun spoke slowly, "Old Yun, the keyboard at home is broken, let’s go out and buy one later!"

Uncle Yun said with a smile, "There are youngsters around! Can you give me some face, please? I admit I neither have the mind nor the guts of a thief, okay?"

Watching Uncle Yun and Aunt Yun bickering filled Ling Feng’s heart with a warm feeling. There used to be this kind of laughter and joy in his own home too, but now... Ling Feng sighed deeply in his heart.

Things change, people change, and the happy times of the past can never be returned to!

"By the way, Uncle Yun, you haven’t told me what you wanted to talk about!" Ling Feng collected his thoughts and said, "It looks like Uncle Yun is going out?"

Aunt Yun said, "Yes, today your Uncle Yun has a seminar on biological research, and there might be a banquet afterward. Your Uncle Yun is not in good health; he wanted someone to take care of him, so he thought of you!"

"What’s wrong with Uncle Yun’s health?" Ling Feng was startled and quickly asked.

Yun Yang was Ling Guoliang’s close friend and held a position in Ling Feng’s heart second only to his father. Therefore, hearing about Yun Yang’s poor health, Ling Feng’s face showed a look of concern.

"Don’t listen to your Aunt Yun’s nonsense!" Yun Yang said with a laugh, "It’s just some heart issues, an old problem really, nothing serious!"

A heart issue? Ling Feng frowned.

"Alright, Xiao Feng, let’s go, the father and son pair, it’s almost time!" Yun Yang said, draping his arm over Ling Feng’s broad shoulders, "We’re off!"

Yun Yang’s car was an ordinary domestic Chery, priced at about one hundred thousand, which didn’t match his former status as the director of Chaoyang Biotechnology at all.

"Uncle Yun, this car has been driven for a long time, hasn’t it? Do you want to change it?" Ling Feng said while driving.

Yun Yang patted the car and said, "A car is just a means of transportation. This car doesn’t have any major issues, why bother changing it?"

"Getting another car would be more comfortable and safer!" Ling Feng said with a smile.

Yun Yang’s car was already more than ten years old, and many of its parts had aged. If something really went wrong, it could be a significant safety threat, which is why Ling Feng suggested changing it.

"You know, when you get older, you tend to become nostalgic!" Yun Yang said softly, "Xiao Feng, do you know why I’ve never changed this car?"

Ling Feng shook his head.

"Back when your father and I founded Chaoyang Biotech, we were dirt poor and invested all our energy and capital into it. Forget about a car, we even bought our bicycles from the second-hand market!" Yun Yang said softly, "I vividly remember it was a noon in summer, your father and I went to a company for business negotiations. It was so hot that day, and Guo Liang and I were sweating profusely!"

"That time, I looked at the cars around with some envy and said, ’How great would it be if one day we could drive to negotiations in our own car!’"

"I’ll never forget what Guo Liang said to me then, ’Don’t worry, trust us, we’ll have it one day, we’ll drive the best domestic car and make the world applaud us!’"

"Later, as Chaoyang Technology grew, I bought this Chery, which was the best domestic car back then!" Yun Yang’s eyes were slightly moist, "This car has always been the motivation that inspires me to keep moving forward!"

Ling Feng’s heart also trembled, feeling the nostalgia and excitement in Yun Yang’s heart at this moment.
