After my divorce, I started to have good luck-Chapter 708 - 384 Think About It Yourself_2

Chen Feng frowned slightly and pondered, "I still think you two have been together for too short a time. It’s been less than a month since you met, right? Is it really necessary to rush?"

"It’s almost a month now." Qin Zhen corrected somewhat sheepishly and then explained, "It’s mainly because our parents are urging us, and we’re both very satisfied with each other now."

Chen Feng shook his head and said, "I still think it’s a bit rushed. It’s only June now, you can wait a few more months. If you still think it’s suitable then, you can get engaged to her before the end of the year."

If it were someone else, Chen Feng wouldn’t say this, but Qin Zhen is his best friend and brother, so Chen Feng definitely looks at the issue from his perspective and standpoint.

Qin Zhen remained silent for a while before slowly nodding, "You’re right. Maybe I’m too impatient. After all, I’m not young anymore, and Lei is the most captivating woman I’ve met so far, so I couldn’t help being a bit impulsive."

Chen Feng asked calmly, "You’ve known her for quite a while too. Have you ever looked into her family background and other related information?"

"Of course not." Qin Zhen shook his head directly, "I’m dating her because of genuine feelings. And you’ve met her parents; they don’t seem like bad people. What’s there to investigate? She’s not a criminal, nor is her family."

Chen Feng, however, said seriously, "You definitely need to check it out. Previously, you were just dating, only caring about her as a person, so you didn’t need to pay much attention to her parents or relatives. But getting engaged and married isn’t just between you and her; it’s between both families. You definitely need to find out some details to have peace of mind.

It’s been like this throughout history; how could you just marry without knowing the other family’s situation? Isn’t there always a step of ’inquiring about relatives’ back in our hometowns, where people ask about the other family’s situation and person? Surely you know this."

Qin Zhen thought about these words and still nodded, "Okay. You’re right, I’ll find some time to look into it."

Chen Feng joked with a smile, "Luckily, your mind isn’t completely lost in love. You’ve had many relationships before, so why are you acting like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old this time?"

Qin Zhen, with a blissful expression, laughed and said, "Didn’t I just say? This time I feel I’ve found true love; she’s the most heart-stirring woman I’ve ever met. And besides... she’s still a virgin, you know, she gave me the most precious thing a woman has, so I have to take on the responsibility a man should and give her an explanation."

Of course, Chen Feng understood. For men, they wouldn’t mind if their wife wasn’t a virgin initially, because what’s done is done, and worrying wouldn’t change anything. Reality is that few women are first-timers when they know you.

If it’s the first time, then to a man, it’s like hitting the jackpot, something very rare. Generally, men are quite happy about this; they might not protect this woman with their life, but at least there won’t be any mental burden.

Pei Lei isn’t unattractive and is already twenty-four or twenty-five years old. It’s quite rare to still be chaste before meeting Qin Zhen.

"Then you’re really lucky. I can understand your thoughts. But, among the ones you’ve dated before, surely not all were first-timers, right?" Chen Feng smiled and asked.

"Get lost!" Qin Zhen gave him an annoyed look but didn’t answer the question. Yet, the answer was quite obvious.

"Since you’re very satisfied with her, then after you investigate her family background and related information, if there’s no issue, spend a few more months with her. If you still think she’s great then, just finalize the marriage during the National Day holiday."

"Alright, I’ll listen to you."

After discussing this matter, they stopped talking about hometown affairs. Qin Zhen directly ignored Chen Feng, chatting and laughing with Pei Lei, feeding each other, making Chen Feng realize his mistake of ending up with a mouthful of dog food.

Next time, if he’s eating with them again, Chen Feng definitely needs to bring a female companion; otherwise, watching their lovey-dovey behavior is truly uncomfortable.

By the afternoon of the next day, Qin Zhen suddenly called him, inviting him to drink at night at the stall where they had been several times before.

Listening to Qin Zhen’s somewhat gloomy tone and knowing they were going to drink at a stall, Chen Feng knew something was up, and it probably involved Pei Lei.

As expected, just like Chen Feng predicted, after meeting at the stall in the evening, while grilling and drinking, Qin Zhen soon spilled the beans about the situation.

Indeed, it was about Pei Lei; specifically, her family situation was a bit complex.

Currently, Pei Lei’s mother isn’t her biological mother but her stepmother, and her biological mother is still in a mental hospital, having been admitted over ten years ago.

And everyone knows that some mental illnesses can be hereditary. Unfortunately, her mother’s type of mental illness is hereditary.

This means that their future children could inherit mental illnesses.

Moreover, Pei Lei has been suffering from depression, receiving related treatment since she was fifteen or sixteen, and even stayed in a hospital for almost two months at twenty, continuing treatment to this day.

Everyone knows that severe depression could lead to suicide.

Yet these matters were never mentioned by Pei Lei to him before.

Discovering these things about his girlfriend naturally makes Qin Zhen feel bad, prompting him to invite Chen Feng out for drinks to share his woes.

"Ah Feng, why am I so unlucky? Just when I finally found someone I truly like and feel attracted to, it turns out to be this kind of situation."

Having said that, Qin Zhen tilted his head back and gulped down a whole bottle of beer, the empty bottle clanging down as he expressed unspeakable gloom and sorrow.

Truly, a strong man shouldn’t weep easily. Imagine a solid macho who wouldn’t frown when stabbed by a thug, but faced with such an emotional dilemma, he couldn’t help but feel heartbroken.

"Ah Feng, what should I do?"

Seeing Qin Zhen’s bewildered and helpless look, Chen Feng also sighed internally for him. His friend’s path in love really is too rough.

Regardless of whether it was Wang Xuelin or Ning Wei before, neither was suitable for him, causing him much disappointment for a while. Now when he finally meets someone who satisfies him, it turns out to be this issue again.

"Let me ask you first, or you should ask yourself, apart from the depression issue, is she suitable for you? Do you believe she’s suitable to spend the rest of your life with? A shoe knows if it fits the foot; think it over yourself."
