"What era are we living in? Have you been reading some random, low-quality literature lately?" Lu Feng said with some dissatisfaction.
Jiang Xiaoyan didn't speak. She had talked to Zhang Fengxia and knew what kind of person Lu Feng wanted her to become. However, old habits die hard.
If a few simple words can make her independent, is that still the same Jiang Xiaoyan who was beaten for years and still refused to get a divorce?
There were five or six dishes on the table, and the red wine in the stemmed glasses was so vibrant. Duoduo was also holding her own stemmed glass, but it was filled with milk.
This was the day in recent months when Jiang Xiaoyan's laughter echoed most in this room. Looking at Lu Feng across from her, Jiang Xiaoyan looked so beautiful under the lights.
He scratched his hair, picked up his glass, and asked, "What are you toasting to?"
"May my wife become more and more beautiful," Lu Feng said, clinking his glass with hers.
"What do you mean, 'sir'?" Jiang Xiaoyan was a little unhappy to hear this. Lu Feng was the pillar of the family and the head of the household, yet he called her "sir."
"Bottoms up!" Lu Feng didn't argue much and said to Duo Duo, "Drink it all in one go!"
The three of them drank it all in one gulp. After finishing, they looked at each other and smiled, their eyes full of tenderness and happiness. Lu Feng had attended too many banquets, whether in his past life or this one, with tables costing tens of thousands of yuan and featuring delicacies from land and sea. He had even once drunk a bottle of century-old barrel wine, taking only a few sips, but it cost tens of thousands of yuan.
However, that wine was far inferior to the one I casually bought from the supermarket tonight.
Duo Duo was making a fuss, and Lu Feng was trying to soothe her. Jiang Xiaoyan's cheeks were flushed from drinking, and she kept talking to Lu Feng about Duo Duo's ball games. She was laughing so happily that Lu Feng could even see stars in her eyes.
Lu Feng didn't eat much; looking at her filled not only his heart but also his stomach.
It was already past ten o'clock at night. There was no work, no backstabbing, and no scheming. In the bedroom, Duoduo was jumping around on the bed, making a fuss about sleeping with Lu Feng tonight.
"Stop jumping around, go to sleep!" Lu Feng reached out and picked her up, giving her a big kiss on her cheek.
Jiang Xiaoyan had already washed up and came in wearing pajamas.
Duoduo slept in the middle. The little boy was lively and also fell asleep quickly. Before long, he was asleep. In the dim light, Lu Feng groped and grabbed Jiang Xiaoyan's hand.
"I never imagined that my love would require traveling through time to obtain."
"What?"
"It's nothing, I just wanted to say that I love you!"
"Stop being so mushy." Although Jiang Xiaoyan said with a hint of disgust, she gripped Lu Feng's hand even tighter. After thinking for a moment, she said, "It would be great to have another son. Duoduo is all alone. With a younger brother, we'll have a daughter and a son."
"Don't mention this, the government doesn't allow us to have children."
“We have to pay the fine. I heard from my mom that in town, it costs two thousand for every additional child you have!”
Lu Feng didn't want to talk, so he pretended to be asleep and started snoring loudly. Jiang Xiaoyan felt a little lonely and sighed softly. She remembered her mother's words on the phone.
“If you can’t have children, what will you use to keep someone’s family? A woman’s job is to have children. Your sister just got married, and although her in-laws treat her well because of you, they’re even more attentive to her now that she’s a boy.”
Jiang Xiaohong is pregnant, and it's a boy!
The next day, when Lu Feng woke up, Duo Duo had already been sent to school. Jiang Xiaoyan told him that when Duo Duo arrived, the children lined the road to welcome her, and the principal even stood up to shake her hand. She said she didn't know her husband was so powerful before, and asked him to forgive her if she had done anything wrong.
Lu Feng had expected this treatment; what was this "elite school" about? It was just a place for adults to socialize.
“My sister is pregnant. My mom called me a few days ago to ask if I was pregnant yet,” Jiang Xiaoyan said, sitting in a chair.
Lu Feng felt like he was being driven crazy by her. In her current state, it was impossible for her to get pregnant even if she were in good health. He also knew that this matter had become a source of anxiety for Jiang Xiaoyan, and it couldn't be resolved in just a few words.
More importantly, her mindset was deeply ingrained by the times, and Lu Feng could not shake it.
It's July 2nd now. Lu Feng silently calculated in his mind that Jiafeng Electronics was on the right track. If he went back, he could indeed lay the groundwork for internal reorganization and other developments in the next two or three months.
But the company won't have any problems even without him.
But Jiang Xiaoyan is in such a state now, without him, things are really going to get really bad.
“I’m not leaving for now. I’ll stay with you for two or three months!” Lu Feng said, looking at her.
"Isn't this a bad idea? Won't it affect you? I think you should prioritize your career." Jiang Xiaoyan tried to persuade Lu Feng, but she couldn't stop smiling.
Finally, she happily buried her face in Lu Feng's arms.
"A woman who says one thing but means another." Lu Feng was amused by her.
