After that, the two stopped messing around.

They seriously started researching the travel route together.

This was their first trip together, so naturally, they wanted to create the most beautiful memories. They were meticulously planning and perfecting the travel guide.

"Phew..."

Lin Feng stretched lazily and exhaled deeply. Eventually, he finished planning the trip to Chuan-Zang. Now they just needed to buy gear tomorrow.

It was getting late, and tomorrow they’d head out to buy travel gear.

So Lin Feng got up, took his clothes, and prepared to shower.

After returning to Modu from the countryside, they’d spent the whole day on the bus.

Zhang Yuxi was also tired, so she lay down to rest.

When Lin Feng came out of the shower, he found Zhang Yuxi already asleep.

Seeing Zhang Yuxi’s smiling face in her sleep, he wondered what dream this silly girl was having that she was smiling even asleep.

Lin Feng leaned forward to tuck her blanket in, then turned off the light and gently closed the door.

He had to sleep on the couch in the living room.

No choice, since it was Zhang Yuxi’s first time at his house and sleeping together directly might not be entirely proper for her.

Actually, when Lin Feng kissed Zhang Yuxi, she was already awake.

She hadn’t been sleeping deeply.

When Lin Feng came to turn off the light and tuck her in, she was aware.

She was just a bit shy, so she pretended to be asleep.

After Lin Feng went out, Zhang Yuxi lay in bed, eyes open, unsure what she was thinking.

No one knew how much time passed, but Lin Feng drifted off to sleep on the couch.

In a daze, Lin Feng vaguely heard someone calling his name.

He slowly opened his eyes. The living room’s night light was still on, and Lin Feng saw Zhang Yuxi peeking out worriedly from the door of his room.

The voice was soft, even somewhat deliberately suppressed.

Lin Feng instantly woke, got up from the couch, and tiptoed to the room’s door, whispering.

"Yu Xi, what’s wrong?"

Zhang Yuxi replied quietly, somewhat awkwardly.

"Lin Feng, I’m scared..."

Hearing Zhang Yuxi’s words, Lin Feng held back a chuckle, but seeing her nervous little face, he dared not laugh aloud.

Smiling, he gently rubbed Zhang Yuxi’s little head and said softly.

"I’ll accompany you, silly girl."

Zhang Yuxi nodded sharply, like a chick pecking at grains.

So Lin Feng carefully entered the room and gently closed the door behind.

With a soft "click," the door shut.

The two lay quietly on the bed.

Lin Feng saw Zhang Yuxi looking a bit tense.

He whispered: "Relax, go to sleep. I’ll sneak out to the couch early tomorrow morning; they won’t find out."

"Mmhm."

Zhang Yuxi replied softly.

Soon, her breathing became calm and steady—she was asleep...

She had been tense all day and was truly exhausted.

Lin Feng gently touched Zhang Yuxi’s soft cheek, feeling no stray thoughts.

Soon, he, too, slipped into dreams...

...

Early the next morning.

Before dawn, around five, Lin Feng woke up.

Seeing Zhang Yuxi still asleep, he quietly got up and tiptoed out.

Just as he closed the door.

He bumped into his mom Zhou Cuilan, who was up making breakfast.

Locking eyes, the atmosphere turned awkward.

Lin Feng awkwardly said: "Mom, if I say it’s not what you think, would you believe me?"

Zhou Cuilan shot him a look, saying nothing.

Lin Feng could only touch his nose, crawl into the couch, and catch another snooze.

He was really tired, after a full day’s drive back from the countryside and a busy night got only three to four hours of sleep.

Soon, Lin Feng dozed off deeply on the couch...

He slept until the sun was high when he slowly woke up...

Lin Feng rubbed his eyes as he woke to see Zhang Yuxi sitting beside the couch, staring at him.

Seeing him awake, she gave a sweet smile.

Lin Feng reached out, gently stroked Zhang Yuxi’s cheek, and smiled warmly.

"Been awake long?"

Zhang Yuxi nodded with a smile.

"Get up, the sun’s already kissing your behind, lazy pig!"

Oh wow, this girl actually found a roundabout way to tease him.

Lin Feng pulled Zhang Yuxi towards him, making her fall into his arms, and they started playfully wrestling on the couch, laughter echoing...

"Ahem..."

Just then Zhou Cuilan came out of the kitchen, coughing as she saw them roughhousing on the couch.

Zhang Yuxi jumped off the couch like a rabbit, her face instantly flushed red.

Seeing Zhang Yuxi’s shy, adorable look, Lin Feng was amused.

"Son, hurry up and wash, get breakfast. Yu Xi’s been up long. Look at you, sleeping like a pig."

Zhou Cuilan shot Lin Feng a look, speaking with some annoyance.

"Alright!"

"As you command, Mother! Right away!"

Recognizing his mother’s tone, Lin Feng quickly replied.

He leaped off the couch and dashed to his room to change clothes.

Zhou Cuilan looked at her son’s goofy demeanor and shook her head with a smile.

"Pfft..."

Seeing this, Zhang Yuxi beside her couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

Zhang Yuxi tidied up and folded the blanket Lin Feng had slept with on the sofa and took it into the room.

Zhou Cuilan nodded in approval at Zhang Yuxi’s actions, feeling even more satisfied with this daughter-in-law.

First of all, beauty is justice, and Zhang Yuxi’s gorgeous appearance is flawless. Additionally, she’s polite, gentle, and endearing. How could one not be satisfied!

Zhou Cuilan looked at Zhang Yuxi’s perfectly proportioned figure and those round, perky hips and thought, "Tsk tsk, there’s a chance of having grandkids in the future."

Lost in her thoughts, Zhou Cuilan was genuinely satisfied with Zhang Yuxi, especially considering how well Lin Feng and Zhang Yuxi got along together. Their happiness was more important than anything else.

Before long, Lin Feng finished freshening up and came out.

After having breakfast with Zhang Yuxi, the two of them headed out.

Today, they needed to buy travel gear and, incidentally, take Zhang Yuxi shopping for some clothes.

Once they got to the parking lot, Lin Feng realized it wasn’t suitable to carry all the gear in the Ferrari 488.

Better to drive the Mercedes G500!

At this moment, Lin Dashan, who was also heading down to drive, noticed them.

"Wo Cao, a Mercedes G500!"

"When did this kid buy another car without me knowing!"

"No way, I need to borrow that Ferrari 488 for a few days. No reason, it’s a man’s dream car! I’ve wanted to drive it for a long time!"

Lin Dashan thought to himself.

"Hey, kiddo, did you switch cars?"

He asked.

"Yeah, since we’re planning a trip, right?"

"Sports cars aren’t suitable for road trips, so I bought this. Just switched a few days ago."

Lin Feng casually replied when his dad questioned him.

Now their family wasn’t short on money, so buying a car was no big deal, and Lin Dashan didn’t have much to say about it.

"Since you’re going on a trip, lend that Ferrari 488 to your dad for a few days, so I can experience the thrill of the beast!"

Lin Dashan rubbed his hands together and said.

Lin Feng dug out the Ferrari 488’s key from his bag and tossed it to his dad.

"Sure, dad. Drive it if you want, but don’t take it to pick up girls, or mom won’t spare you!"

Lin Feng joked.

Lin Dashan caught the key excitedly and, seeing Lin Feng teasing him, glared playfully at his son.

"Shoo, shoo! Do you think your dad is that kind of person?"

"Yuxi, keep an eye on him. This kid isn’t always honest. If he bullies you, just tell me, and I’ll break his leg!"

"Pfft..."

Zhang Yuxi was amused by the banter between Lin Feng and his father.

She gently held Lin Feng’s hand, looked at him warmly, and said.

"Uncle, don’t worry. I trust Lin Feng won’t do that."

Lin Feng looked at his dad with a smug smile.

"Uh..."

"Young people these days, so mushy!"

"I won’t talk with you guys anymore; I’m heading to the office!"

With that, he started Lin Feng’s Ferrari 488, and with a rev of the engine, sped off out of the underground parking lot, disappearing from their sight.

"Pfft..."

Lin Feng and Zhang Yuxi exchanged a smile as they stood there.

Then they got into the Mercedes G500, and Lin Feng started the car, soon disappearing into the parking lot...

In no time, Lin Feng drove to the shopping district in the city center. After parking, the two headed into the mall.

"Yuxi, let’s buy the travel gear, like water flasks and camping tents, first." 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Lin Feng said to Zhang Yuxi.

"Alright, I’ll follow your lead."

Zhang Yuxi replied sweetly.

The two of them walked hand in hand into the mall.

Lin Feng took out the notes he prepared last night from his bag, which detailed the gear needed for the trip.

Following the equipment list on the paper, the two soon finished shopping for their gear.

Lin Feng carried a lot of bags, and Zhang Yuxi helped with some of the lighter items like water flasks.

"Yuxi, let’s head back to the parking lot to put these things in the car first. It’s really inconvenient to carry them around."

Lin Feng suggested, and the two headed toward the elevator.

Just then...

"Huh? Isn’t that my buddy Li Tian??"

Lin Feng noticed someone distributing flyers in the distance and was puzzled.

The elevator arrived, and Lin Feng, not overthinking it, went in with Zhang Yuxi.

Inside the elevator.

Zhang Yuxi noticed Lin Feng seemed distracted and asked with concern.

"Lin Feng, what’s wrong?"

"Is it because there’s too much stuff, and you’re tired?"

"Hmm? No, just now I thought I saw a really good friend from before. But his whole family moved out of the province, so he shouldn’t be here. I must have mistaken someone else."

Lin Feng shook his head with a smile.

If it really were Li Tian, he should have looked for him, right?

Besides, that person was distributing flyers, and Li Tian’s family was well-off, with a father in politics and a mother in business.

Probably someone who looked similar, and I mistook him.

Then, Lin Feng put the thought aside.

They got back to the parking lot, stored their stuff, and came back up. Passing the area where Lin Feng thought he saw Li Tian, the spot was now empty.

Lin Feng didn’t think much more about it and held Zhang Yuxi’s hand, heading for more shopping!
