After my divorce, I started to have good luck-Chapter 1006 - 534: Little Dan Is Quite Good (Part 2)
Chen Xiaoxia said, "You should just tell her the truth."
Zhao Xiaolan looked a bit distressed and said, "I'm afraid she might deliberately tell Little Ting about the pregnancy. If Little Ting finds out, it's very likely that I'll lose this daughter-in-law."
Chen Xiaoxia sighed and said, "There's really no other way. I don't think we can keep this from her forever; it's not right. We should tell her sooner rather than later. Ah Feng, don't you agree?"
Chen Feng nodded and said, "I feel the same way. Little Dan is carrying my child, and if I want to marry Mengting in the future, I definitely can't hide this from her. I should tell her before we officially establish a romantic relationship."
Zhao Xiaolan couldn't help but say angrily, "It seems like you still don't want to be with Little Ting."
Chen Feng thought to himself, Mom, you really have sharp eyes.
"Mom, although Mengting is excellent in many ways, I can't selfishly keep such a big secret from her. Since you like her so much, it's even more reason not to hide it from her."
Chen Xiaoxia said, "Little Dan's pregnancy is something Ah Feng is innocent of, and the child won't live with Ah Feng in the future. It's just as if Ah Feng had a child from a previous marriage. I think, as long as we explain it clearly to Little Ting, she won't mind too much."
Zhao Xiaolan thought for a moment and nodded with some relief, "You're right, that's true. It's really not Ah Feng's fault. As long as we explain it in detail to Little Ting, given her personality, she should be able to understand Ah Feng."
Chen Xiaoxia added, "It's best not to tell Little Ting about this right now. After all, Little Dan is less than three months pregnant; it's best to wait until closer to full term to tell her."
According to folk customs, it's not good to casually mention a pregnancy before three months due to some taboos. There's usually no problem by full term (near delivery), and this is also to avoid conflicts between Hong Xiaodan and Wu Mengting that might affect the child she's carrying.
Of course, this meaning doesn't need to be explicitly stated; everyone understands it.
Not having Hong Xiaodan live as neighbors with Chen Feng and Wu Mengting also has this in mind. Everything is for the sake of the child.
Zhao Xiaolan nodded and said, "You're right. We should wait a little before telling Little Ting. We might as well tell her after the child is born. Until the child is born, it's better for Little Dan not to live as neighbors with Chen Feng. I'll talk to Little Dan about it."
This time, Zhao Xiaolan didn't hesitate and immediately took out her phone to call Hong Xiaodan.
In front of everyone, she directly told Hong Xiaodan about Wu Mengting, hoping that after returning to Xiu Zhou, she wouldn't be neighbors with Chen Feng and, before the child is born, not to tell Wu Mengting about this.
Hong Xiaodan readily agreed, saying that her family has two other properties in Xiu Zhou and not living in Red Villa Bay was no problem. She also promised not to actively tell Wu Mengting about this.
Hong Xiaodan's easygoing nature made Zhao Xiaolan very satisfied. She praised her generously for a while before ending the call.
"Little Dan is really a good girl, very understanding," Zhao Xiaolan sincerely praised.
But Chen Feng felt somewhat disappointed. Hong Xiaodan was too easygoing. However, she was indeed the one at fault first, and since Zhao Xiaolan, a senior, brought it up, she couldn't refuse.
"Well, this makes things easier. Once the child is born, Ah Feng, find a good opportunity to talk to Little Ting. Make sure to get her understanding and don't upset her. Also, to prevent future issues, you should get engaged to Little Ting by the end of the year. This time, don't keep delaying."
Seeing Zhao Xiaolan say this, Chen Feng didn't refuse outright but said, "It's no use if we agree; Mengting and her family also have to agree."
Zhao Xiaolan frowned and said, "Little Ting is a hundred percent in agreement, and her family feels the same way. I already talked to her mom over video specifically about your marriage; her mom also wants you to get engaged by the end of the year and marry next year."
"How come I didn't know about this?" Chen Feng really didn't know about this, and Wu Mengting hadn't told him.
Zhao Xiaolan glared, "Well, now you know."
Chen Feng smiled wryly and said, "I think we shouldn't rush the wedding."
Chen Xiaoxia, with heartfelt advice, said, "Ah Feng, you're already thirty. Others at thirty already have a wife and kids. Although you've been divorced, you can't let that hold you back. We've both been very pleased with Mengting, so don't waver, or other women might set their sights on you. Little Dan's situation is a warning; you need to settle down."
Zhao Xiaolan was more forceful, "Whether you like it or not, get engaged by the end of the year, so you can set your mind and stop being a flirt."
Chen Xiaoxia also said, "You can't just because you have some money now avoid getting married. Don't think you'll never lack women; such thoughts are not acceptable. Whether a man or a woman, the ultimate place is family. You're not getting younger, and it's time to build a complete family."
Being lectured by the two elders alternately, Chen Feng, although feeling overwhelmed, had to surrender, "Yes, you're both right; I'll do as you say."
Chen Xiaoxia smiled and said, "You'll not go wrong listening to us."
Zhao Xiaolan also smiled, "Then it's settled. You'll get engaged to Little Ting by the end of the year. I'll discuss with her mom and pick a good date."
Chen Feng stood up, a bit impatient, "Fine, you handle it. I'm going to get some sleep."
With that, he headed straight for the upstairs.
"This child is increasingly ignoring me," Zhao Xiaolan said somewhat exasperatedly.
Chen Xiaoxia advised, "He's grown up now. You shouldn't always treat him like a child. Discuss things with him instead of forcing him, otherwise it might backfire."
The visiting grandmother also chimed in, "This child has been stubborn since young, very independent-minded. Forcing him might not have any effect."
Zhao Xiaolan smiled wryly, "If I don't push him, he won't listen. Now he's grown and wealthy, he takes my words even less seriously. He doesn't tell me anything, and he could go ten days or half a month without calling me."
Chen Xiaoxia said, "You know Ah Feng has always been independent since he was a child. He's just like this. Actually, he respects us elders a lot. Just like with today's matter, he basically followed our arrangements."
Zhao Xiaolan couldn't help but think of Hong Xiaodan and sighed, "What a pity for Little Dan. Such a good girl, yet she fell for Ah Feng, this scoundrel. Once she has the child, who knows what her future will be like? Finding another decent man to marry will be difficult."
Hearing this, Chen Xiaoxia also couldn't help but shake her head and sigh.
