My System Forces Me to Live off Women-Chapter 122 - 117: What Do You Think of Zhao Qingge?

After Wu Wenyue said 'official announcement,' the atmosphere among the group became quite awkward.

Huang Tianxuan, however, stepped closer to the two girls. She might have wanted to understand the relationship between the trio better, so she suggested with a smile, "Let's exchange WeChat. I'll be in the Capital, and I'm not familiar with the place, so maybe I can hang out with you guys sometime."

Wu Wenyue and Xu Manning exchanged a glance, paused slightly, then nodded in agreement.

"Sure."

"Let us scan you."

After leaving the campus, Huang Tianxuan bid them farewell and drove away, while Li Peifeng and the rest headed toward the apartment.

The 400-meter road, a five-minute journey, was filled with discussions about Miss Huang's black Mercedes S-Class among the group.

Especially Xu Manning, who, perhaps feeling challenged in terms of wealth, was checking Huang Tianxuan's moments while asking Li Peifeng about her family background.

"Hezhi Pharmaceutical is owned by Huang Tianxuan's family; I don't know much else."

Li Peifeng just answered truthfully.

Xu Manning immediately took out her phone to search online, and with a search, her face turned pale.

Searching Hezhi Pharmaceutical, a domestically listed company, the first search result naturally showed its stock market performance, but what's most important is the total market value at the bottom right corner: 26.403 billion…

The pressure was now on Miss Xu!

"That rich?!"

Looking at Hezhi Pharmaceutical's market value, Xu Manning was utterly frustrated: "Why does she have a better reincarnation than me!!"

"Yeah, why?"

Wu Wenyue sighed with a lamenting tone, "Manning, why don't you restart now? I'll do it cleanly and swiftly, aiming for you to be a princess of some country in your next life."

"Get lost!"

Xu Manning was sulking, although she realized there was nothing special between Huang Tianxuan and Li Peifeng, being outdone in an area where she excelled made her feel really defeated.

Li Peifeng wasn't in the mood to comfort her, because he couldn't go home; he had to follow his parents to the nearby home inn at the apartment for some righteous trial.

"Come back early," Wu Wenyue and Xu Manning expressed their helplessness but were quietly pleased.

"I'll try."

Just as Li was about to step in and follow his parents, he suddenly remembered something, quickly made an excuse to return to the apartment to grab the jewelry he had bought for his mom…

"Sneaky, really sneaky!"

Watching his rummaging process, Wu Wenyue sneered, "Bribing the judge, now you might at least get a reduced sentence."

Xu Manning was slightly disappointed, "It really was a gift for Auntie, I thought…"

"What you thought is just what you thought."

Li Peifeng threw this line and headed to the hotel with the jewelry, arriving at his parents' room.

"Pretty quick." It was Li Qiyuan who opened the door, seemingly just arriving, still wearing his coat, unexpectedly opening the door for him.

"Sit."

"My mom…"

"She's running water in the bathtub." Li Qiyuan casually pointed at the bathroom. Just then, the bathroom door opened, and Yu Huizhi came out.

At this moment, the terrifying intuition of a woman was evident; before Li Peifeng could speak, she immediately saw the 'Cartier' gift bag in his hand.

"What's this?"

Yu Huizhi remained calm, "You went back just to fetch this?"

"I used some money from a film and television adaptation right contract I got earlier to buy a gift for you, Mom, thinking to give it when there's a chance. Since you both are here… I wonder if you're satisfied?"

Li Peifeng spoke as he took the two jewelry boxes out of the bag. Yu Huizhi took them, placed them on the bed, and opened them one by one.

The room suddenly lit up with dazzling brilliance.

"...Wow! Honey! Look!"

Yu Huizhi was delighted, holding Li Qiyuan's hand, chattering like a young girl.

"Goodness!" Li Qiyuan first noticed the receipt, picked it up for a glance, and smirked at the amount, "You really spent a fortune."

"It is expensive!"

Yu Huizhi held back a bit, criticizing, "You can't buy this again next time!"

Then she immediately wore a happy expression, "Honey, put it on me!"

"Yes, dad, help mom wear it."

Li Peifeng felt relieved, initially expecting his mom would scold him for being wasteful, but it was just a mild "can't buy it again," showing that no woman can resist such shiny jewels.

The bracelet and necklace identical to Zhao Qingge's, now put on by her husband Li Qiyuan, Li Peifeng took the opportunity to lavish some praise, and all of Yu Huizhi's anger dissipated.

Being of one heart, seeing his wife happy made Old Li not so angry about the past issue, but perhaps a little irked because his son didn't buy anything for him, he brought up the past…

"Alright, now tell me, how many good sisters do you have at Beihua University?"

Yu Huizhi was admiring herself with the jewelry in the mirror, "Right, don't think you can gloss over this."

Li Peifeng immediately took out his phone, transferring fifty thousand yuan to Li Qiyuan's WeChat, whispering, "Wishing you a happy Father's Day in advance."

"Ding dong~"

Li Qiyuan frowned, glancing back at his wife, seeing she didn't notice, he slowly also took out his phone.

He clicked receive!

Li Qiyuan's expression softened, "What were we going to talk about just now?"

Anyway, with the jewelry given and the money transferred, the pressure on Li Peifeng was much relieved.

He shared his story selectively, providing a promise not to mess around anymore, enough to barely satisfy his parents, and if not, knowledge of past events couldn't be changed.

But Old Li still harbored doubts about Xu Manning and Wu Wenyue's relationship with his son.

"You're now sharing a place with them, right?"

"Um, yes, co-renting."

Li Qiyuan gave a sharp look, "What's your plan?"

"It's economical," Li Peifeng played dumb, "We share the rent, take turns cooking meals, and if not, dine out and treat each other…"

Li Qiyuan shook his head and sighed, "That's not the main issue, you said earlier, and Yueyue also mentioned she dated Xu Manning, broke up, then Xu Manning dated you, broke up, now Yueyue's with Xu Manning… and you're still living together, sigh, I don't even want to say it!"

Then don't say it.

"What you've mentioned doesn't affect us being friends!"

Noticing the time, Li Peifeng laughed lightly and said, "Well then, Mom and Dad, you should take a bath, I'll be going back now…"

"Wait!" Yu Huizhi also sat in front of her son, looking serious, "Fengfeng has grown up and has his little secrets from mom and dad, we don't want to pry, and even if we do, you won't tell us. But you must ensure one thing, don't break a girl's heart! Don't play with people's feelings! Understand?"

"I understand!"

Yu Huizhi nodded, "Manning and Yueyue, both girls are really nice, but since they…"

Then she sighed again.

Li Peifeng immediately comforted, "Mom, you better not tell the Yue family, they just haven't met the right person yet, it's just short-term fooling around."

"I get it!" Yu Huizhi thought for a moment, then asked, "That Huang Tianxuan, how exactly do you know her?"

"..."

Yu Huizhi blinked and smiled, "I feel she seems like a nice person."

Li Qiyuan agreed, "Yes, though the family background is vastly different, I think you could try getting to know her. Isn't she going to study at Yandu University? You'll have plenty of chances in the future."

Li Peifeng was silent for a moment, cautiously asking, "Mom and Dad, what do you think about my mentor Zhao Qingge?"

"?"

"?!"

Li Qiyuan looked stunned, "You, what did you say?"

Yu Huizhi was also taken aback, her mouth hanging open for a while before she closed it, slowly saying, "Didn't hear clearly, Fengfeng do you want to repeat that?"

Li Peifeng laughed awkwardly, "I meant, if I find someone whose personality, looks, and family are all similar to my mentor Zhao Qingge, what would you think?"

"Even dreams have limits!"

Li Qiyuan exhaled deeply, and Yu Huizhi patted her chest lightly, speaking with relief, "Wait until you find a gentle and perfect woman like Professor Zhao!"

Oh? They won't be angry at me, they even seem expectant?

Li Peifeng also felt a sign of relief...
