After my divorce, I started to have good luck-Chapter 971 - 517: A Woman Should Act Like a Woman
By midday the next day, Chen Feng took Wu Mengting to meet his aunt, Chen Xiaoxia.
The meeting place was a private dining restaurant chosen by Wu Mengting, a place Chen Feng had never been to before. It was quiet with few people, allowing them to enjoy gourmet food and chat more comfortably.
Chen Xiaoxia had seen Wu Mengting's photos and knew some of her personal information. She knew Wu Mengting was a graduate of East Sea University and was from the downtown area of Lu City. Plus, since her sister-in-law Zhao Xiaolan liked Wu Mengting, she always had a good impression of her.
Upon meeting in person, Wu Mengting was very respectful to her and even had a bit of a flattering attitude, which made Chen Xiaoxia, as an elder, have an even better impression of her.
Seeing this, Chen Feng smiled. Of course, he knew Wu Mengting's little scheme. Since she went to his hometown to please his mother, Chen Feng knew about her family route.
Previously, he was somewhat pleased with this, thinking she was his ideal future wife. But now, as she had undergone quite a transformation, leaning towards being a strong woman, Chen Feng didn't like it much anymore to the extent that marrying her as his wife in the future didn't seem so ideal.
Therefore, he now somewhat opposed her idea of taking the family route.
However, he never deliberately stopped her from meeting his aunt; it wasn't necessary.
Even though he might face pressure from both his mother and aunt in the future, as long as he truly didn't want to, the elders couldn't really force him to do something unwillingly.
He valued family ties but would not be completely manipulated by them.
He was willing to be filial to the elders, but not foolishly so.
This was his principle in life, especially after being diagnosed with a terminal illness and having money; he could even more thoroughly implement these principles.
This meal, Chen Xiaoxia and Wu Mengting enjoyed the food and the conversation. The two women talked endlessly from hometown meals and customs in Tianzhou to the local customs and traditions of Xiu Zhou.
Chen Feng also enjoyed the food comfortingly. The dishes were light but incredibly tasty, and the chef's skills were excellent.
The meal lasted for over two hours, mostly with the two women chatting, leaving Chen Feng little room to intervene.
After leaving the restaurant, Chen Xiaoxia finally inquired Wu Mengting, "What time do you get off work in the afternoon? What kind of dishes do you like? I'll go to the market in the afternoon, and then we'll properly enjoy dinner together at home with a few more people."
Chen Xiaoxia had always assumed Chen Feng and Wu Mengting were living in the villa she's currently staying at, which was the Red Villa Bay, villa No. e06.
Wu Mengting's face slightly stiffened, turning to Chen Feng.
Chen Feng, however, was calm and smiled faintly, saying, "She's currently living with a female colleague from her company. Besides, I've planned dinner with classmates tonight, so I won't be going back."
"You're not staying at home again?" Chen Xiaoxia frowned at Chen Feng. She knew Chen Feng hadn't returned to villa e06 the previous night and the night before. However, with Chen Feng being such an adult, not going home for two nights, she, as an aunt, didn't say anything.
But not going home for three nights felt a bit like he was consciously avoiding his aunt, making her feel somewhat uneasy.
Chen Feng almost had the impulse to confess that he was currently living with Wu Mengting and Sun Xiaorui at the No. 8 Villa. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎
But he ultimately changed his mind, mainly fearing his aunt's nagging, so he said instead, "I'm worried Fang Min isn't used to it, so I'm staying at my classmate's place these days. Just so happens my classmate lives alone now."
"Little Min already stayed at the school dormitory last night and I stayed alone at your house last night. Such a big house feels a bit scary. Tonight, you should come back and stay with me, otherwise, I'd rather stay at a hotel. Plus, Little Ting, why don't you accompany me too? The house feels more lively with more people. Also, I heard from Ah Feng's mom that you and Chen Feng were living together. How come you suddenly separated?"
Wu Mengting was dumbfounded hearing this, looking at Chen Feng in surprise. Yesterday, Chen Feng explicitly told her that Chen Xiaoxia was unaware of their cohabitation.
Chen Feng wasn't embarrassed and replied casually, "Mengting is still just my sworn sister. Staying together long-term might harm her reputation. But occasionally she does come over to stay."
Chen Xiaoxia certainly didn't believe Chen Feng's nonsense. She just thought that Chen Feng hadn't completely won over Wu Mengting yet, at least hadn't coaxed her into bed, so she gave him an encouraging look, helping, saying, "Oh, I thought you two were already a couple. But even if not, staying together doesn't matter. Ah Feng's house is so spacious, having two people living seems too empty, and leaving so many rooms unoccupied isn't good, someone should live in them. Little Ting, why don't you move back to stay."
Chen Feng and Wu Mengting were speechless hearing these words. After exchanging glances, Wu Mengting spoke first:
"I have no objections, it's just that he's always concerned about my reputation. I think those who are clear about it don't need to clarify, but he is very insistent."
Upon hearing this, Chen Xiaoxia immediately scolded Chen Feng sternly, "Ah Feng, this is where you're wrong. Since Little Ting is willing to stay with you for mutual care, why are you hesitating? You, a grown man, should be more straightforward and liberal than a woman. Listen to me, let Little Ting move back today."
Chen Feng was once again speechless, looking at Wu Mengting, only to see her give him a sweet smile, which made him feel somewhat tired.
This woman was getting tougher to deal with.
"Alright then, Mengting, you move back today."
Chen Feng agreed readily, as if he was being very accommodating.
