Sheng Feichen was busy with what he was doing when his phone suddenly rang. He picked it up impatiently and tucked it over his shoulder.
"Hello? Who is it?"
Feng Lin's cold, questioning voice came from the other end of the phone.
Where are you?
"I'm at home! Where else would I be? Is there anything I need? If not, I'm hanging up!"
Sheng Feichen was about to hang up when Feng Lin spoke up again.
"Open the door, I'm at your door."
Sheng Feichen was stunned. He dropped the mahjong tiles in his hand and turned to open the door.
As soon as the door opened, Feng Lin was indeed standing there.
She glanced at the room, and before Sheng Feichen could ask, she pushed him aside and strode inside.
The pungent smell was indescribable, a mixture of alcohol and strong tobacco, which hit Feng Lin's nose and made her cough repeatedly.
In the center of the room, which was neither too big nor too small, was a mahjong table, where three other people were sitting and smoking.
Upon seeing Feng Lin, they immediately grinned mischievously and said, "Oh, so someone's come to check up on you!"
"Don't worry, sister-in-law, Brother Chen has been with us the whole time and hasn't done anything bad. Right, Brother Chen?"
They winked and smiled at Sheng Feichen, who was walking behind them.
Sheng Feichen swaggered over, put an arm around Feng Lin's neck, and pointed at the three of them, saying, "Don't talk nonsense with me here! Your sister-in-law isn't here to check up on me, she's just here to check on me, right, wife?"
He turned to Feng Lin to confirm, but Feng Lin didn't give him a friendly look and grabbed his arm, shaking him off.
Seeing this, the other three could no longer laugh and immediately found excuses to leave.
"Brother Chen, I suddenly remembered that I have something to do at home."
"Me too, me too!"
"We won't bother you and your wife any longer, we'll be leaving now. Goodbye, sister-in-law!"
"Wait! It's not over yet..."
Sheng Feichen tried to persuade them to stay, but before he could finish speaking, they all slunk away.
Sheng Feichen's face immediately darkened. He kicked the wine bottle on the ground aside, threw himself onto the sofa, didn't even glance at Feng Lin, and started smoking again in silence.
Seeing his dejected appearance, Feng Lin was furious. She took a step forward and snatched the cigarette from his mouth, throwing it on the ground.
"What are you doing now!" Sheng Feichen asked irritably.
Feng Lin stood there, panting, looking at him without saying a word.
When Sheng Feichen saw her like this, his temper immediately subsided, but he still didn't bother her and continued to mutter to himself.
"I'm just playing mahjong, do you have to make such a fuss?"
Feng Lin demanded sharply, "I'm asking you, how much of that 500,000 did you touch!"
Upon hearing this, Sheng Feichen was clearly a little guilty, his eyes darting around aimlessly, refusing to answer the question directly.
"Why are you asking this? Now that we have money, what's wrong with me spending some?"
Feng Lin's face darkened further, and she shouted out her words.
"How much did it cost?!"
Sheng Feichen completely lost his temper. He took her hand, pulled her to his side, put his arms around her shoulders, and rested his chin on her shoulder.
"Oh, don't be angry, it's my fault. I was just too happy and couldn't control myself."
"You call that losing control?!"
Feng Lin blurted it out, but then realized she was too excited and changed her tone.
"Forget it, it's all gone, I won't hold it against you."
Upon hearing this, Sheng Feichen immediately beamed with joy.
"Linlin, I knew you were the best. I promise you, I will use the remaining money very well, and every penny will be used for our future."
Without even thinking, Feng Lin said, "Forget it. I don't believe a single word you say anymore."
She paused for a moment, then said, "How about this, you transfer the money to my account, and I'll manage it to prevent you from losing control and spending it recklessly!"
Sheng Feichen immediately became anxious.
"Transfer it to you? No way! How can I, a grown man, not have any money on me? I'd lose face if I went out like that!"
Feng Lin turned to him and coaxed, "I definitely won't let you be penniless and lose face. Didn't we already agree that this money is for our daily needs? If you spend it so recklessly, what are we going to do in the future?"
Sheng Feichen sat there silently, his lips pressed tightly together, not saying a word.
Seeing that coaxing him wasn't working, Feng Lin grabbed his arm and kept whining, "Brother Chen~ please! Just say yes, I promise I won't let you lose face!"
After Feng Lin repeatedly pleaded and spoke sweet words, Sheng Feichen finally relented.
The two compromised, with Sheng Feichen agreeing to transfer the money to Feng Lin's account, but Feng Lin had to leave him 100,000 yuan.
After they reached an agreement, they hugged each other and happily went to the bank.
Coffee shop.
Today, in order to hold a birthday party for Su Xiaoyu and Bao Han, Duan Sisi hung up the "Closed for Business" sign early and directed Wenrou to decorate the coffee shop.
While Duan Sisi was busy, she turned her head and saw Su Yan sitting in the booth looking preoccupied.
"Honey?"
She called out to Su Yan and walked over to her, patting her lightly. Su Yan then snapped out of her daze.
"What are you thinking about? You were so engrossed in your thoughts that you didn't even hear me talking to you," Duan Sisi asked, puzzled.
When Su Yan heard her ask, she immediately let out a long sigh.
Seeing the worry on her face, Duan Sisi immediately realized that she had something on her mind, so she sat down opposite her.
