In the hotel room, Wu Mengting wore a faint smile on her face, looking at Chen Feng with a tenderness that hadn’t been seen in a long time.

Chen Feng felt a tad uneasy under her gaze and asked, "Why did you suddenly decide to travel here? The National Day holiday is over."

Wu Mengting kept her tender gaze on Chen Feng and explained, "During the National Day holiday, there are too many people. Traveling during that time can be a hassle and not enjoyable at all. Now it’s just right, the holiday is over, and the number of tourists has decreased significantly, so the attractions won’t be crowded."

Chen Feng thought it made sense but still said, "But coming here now, playing for just a day or two definitely won’t be enough."

Today is Saturday, tomorrow is Sunday, and in Chen Feng’s view, Wu Mengting might only take two days off, having to head back by Tuesday. Two or three days in such a big city wouldn’t be that satisfying.

"Initially, I planned to stay for just two or three days, but since you’re here now, I’m thinking of staying for five or six days to fully explore this city. What do you think?"

Facing Wu Mengting’s expectant and gentle look, Chen Feng hesitated slightly, then nodded in agreement: "Alright, let’s just make it a week. We’ll head back next Sunday."

Seeing Chen Feng accommodate her like this, Wu Mengting’s smile grew even brighter, with a playful expression she said, "I’m teasing you, actually two or three days should be enough. I mainly came to wander around the old streets here and taste the local specialties, not particularly interested in other attractions."

Inside, Chen Feng didn’t want to stay longer either. Hearing her say this, he felt relieved and smiled, "There really is a lot of delicious food here, we can truly enjoy it."

"What I want to eat the most are the fish balls and meat swallow here, they say other places don’t have the authentic taste like here. Tomorrow morning, we’ll eat fish balls first, and meat swallow at noon. I’ve already found guides online, they’re mostly local shops visited frequently by locals."

"Isn’t there also Buddha Jumps Over the Wall? This is the birthplace of it, let’s just eat Buddha Jumps Over the Wall tomorrow night at the most authentic local restaurant."

"Sure, I’ll search online. If I can’t find it, let’s just ask local people tomorrow."

The two had traveled extensively before, knowing how to find the most authentic local cuisine in unfamiliar places, not in shops that cater specifically to tourists with no return business, but rather in those frequented regularly by locals doing long-term local business.

Only in such shops is local cuisine the most authentic and relatively affordable.

After chatting about the sights and foods here for a while, Wu Mengting suddenly asked, "Why did you suddenly agree to accompany me this time? Is it really just concern for my safety?"

Chen Feng thought to himself, of course, it’s just concern for your safety, is there any other reason?

However, Chen Feng still said, "Besides worrying about your safety, I can feel your mood hasn’t been great, so I wanted to accompany you here to relax."

Wu Mengting followed up with, "Then do you know why my mood hasn’t been great?"

Chen Feng feigned awkwardness and said, "Of course, it’s because of me. I initially didn’t want to fulfill the promise we made back then. That was indeed my fault."

"So what’s your thought now? Are you planning to back out again?"

Chen Feng looked at her seriously and said, "I actually don’t want to back out, but you mean the most to me. I can hurt other women but don’t want to hurt you. If I didn’t care about you, I’d have taken advantage of you long ago without any courtesy, wouldn’t you agree that’s the situation?"

Wu Mengting remained unmoved, with a touch of mockery on her face she retorted, "So, does that mean you still intend to back out?"

Chen Feng sighed, looked at her, and asked helplessly, "Do you really want to become my woman that much?"

Wu Mengting nodded without hesitation, "Yes."

Chen Feng shook his head slightly and said, "You know I have feelings for you too, I also want to be your man, but I don’t want to be so selfish, do you understand?"

"I understand, but I think if you cannot accept me, that’s real selfishness. I don’t need you to consider too much for me, I just want to have a very normal relationship with you, no need for something grand, just want to stay together for a lifetime, support each other."

Chen Feng bowed his head slightly in silence for a while, then suddenly raised his head again, looked her straight in the eye and said, "There’s something I have to confess to you."

Wu Mengting slightly frowned and asked, "What is it?"

Chen Feng took a deep breath and said, "Actually, I’m about to become a father, Liu Ying is already pregnant with my child, and also, Hong Xiaodan is pregnant with my child."

Chen Feng straightforwardly dropped this bombshell without any suspense, directly saying it in one go.

His openness came as an unavoidable option.

Without revealing this information, it really became difficult to withstand the enormous pressure she continually exerted on him.

Originally thought this bombshell would make Wu Mengting’s face change dramatically, followed by extreme anger.

But it didn’t.

Upon hearing Chen Feng’s confession, Wu Mengting’s expression remained calm, showing no anger or grief.

This reaction was completely unexpected for Chen Feng, causing him to stare at her in amazement and ask: "Didn’t you hear clearly what I just said?"

Wu Mengting replied with a calm demeanor: "I already knew about this beforehand."

"You already knew?" Chen Feng asked in shock, "How did you know?"

Wu Mengting said in an indifferent tone: "Liu Ying and Hong Xiaodan told me themselves."

Chen Feng frowned and said, "That’s impossible. I already warned them. They’re both smart; there’s no way they’d actively tell you this."

Wu Mengting said with sarcasm: "You’re too confident. You also underestimated women’s jealousy."

"When did they tell you?"

If this was true, Chen Feng definitely wouldn’t let Liu Ying and Hong Xiaodan off easily.

"Just yesterday, they both posted on social media. Hong Xiaodan posted the night before, showing Liu Ying’s pregnancy photo. I didn’t see it at the time, then around noon yesterday, Liu Ying also posted a pregnancy photo of Hong Xiaodan, which I happened to see. Then, I looked at Hong Xiaodan’s social media and saw Liu Ying’s pregnancy photo."

Chen Feng was somewhat skeptical: "You just relied on their pregnancy photos to conclude that the children inside them are mine?"

"I personally called them to ask. They both admitted it."

Chen Feng frowned and asked, "When did you call them?"

"Just last night."

"How did you ask? What did they say?"

"I just asked whose child was in their belly, and they answered honestly that it’s yours, so I believed it. And it’s indeed the truth.
