"You're still helping him act? Oh my god, he's obviously a plant!" My cousin was so anxious he was practically scratching his head. He said to Zhang Fengxia, "You're such a grown woman, you've been out in the world for a few years, can't you see through this?"
Neither the old man nor Fengxia's father spoke. Things had already come to this point, and anyone with a bit of social experience could see that this was a situation they had created themselves.
Ah Wei stood there, feeling extremely smug. He knew that as long as he didn't say a word, he had already won by a huge margin over Lu Feng.
"A plant?" Jin Tingting was completely bewildered and asked Lu Feng, "Mr. Lu, what's this?"
"It's just that her family doesn't believe I'm the CEO of Jiafeng Group. Your father has been doing well lately?" Lu Feng was too lazy to explain too much to them, so he decided to ask Grandpa Jin first.
“That’s good. What could he possibly be doing? Aside from domestic and international inspections, he’s either in meetings or something else.” Jin Tingting suddenly remembered something and said, “My dad mentioned you a while ago.”
"Was that a compliment?" Lu Feng asked expectantly.
"No, it just means you've been messing around with some shady people internationally, and you'll get shot sooner or later." Jin Tingting chuckled. "I told him you're a good person."
Lu Feng hurriedly explained, "Tell your uncle that I'm definitely a very good person."
"Okay, you go ahead with your work. I'm going back to Huijing tomorrow." Jin Tingting looked at Zhang Fengxia's family and said, "Goodbye, Uncle and Aunt."
Lu Feng exchanged a few polite words and watched Jin Tingting leave. He wanted to tell everyone about Jin Tingting's identity, but then he thought it was unnecessary. No matter what he said now, his cousin would think he was just bragging.
Moreover, Jin Tingting's family situation was special, and she didn't want to get involved in too much trouble. He also didn't know what kind of temperament Old Master Jin was.
"Fengxia, no matter what, we're guests. Let's go out for dinner tonight and find a nice restaurant," Fengxia's mother said. "The weather is nice, let's take a walk as a family."
Fengxia's father helped the old man walk towards the lawn. The whole family became indifferent to Lu Feng. Zhang Fengxia stood there speechless and said to Lu Feng, "Pay attention to yourself."
"I told them, but they didn't believe me!" Lu Feng said helplessly, spreading his hands.
My cousin stood there and snorted disdainfully, saying, "Someone like you, a CEO of a multinational corporation? Even if you're just bluffing, next time choose a smaller title. Let me tell you, it's only because my aunt's family is wealthy that we've fired you long ago. You're still trying to fool people here. You must be blind!"
"How dare you speak like that?" Zhang Fengxia couldn't take it anymore and scolded her cousin, "No one will think you're mute if you don't speak. I can handle my own affairs, and I don't need you to tell me what to do."
"Fengxia, I'm doing this for your own good. You're scolding me now, but you'll definitely thank me when you get together with Awei," her cousin kept trying to persuade her.
Zhang Fengxia ignored her completely and walked forward with an angry face.
Only Lu Feng and Awei remained standing there. They exchanged a glance, and Awei took off his black-rimmed glasses. His previously honest and obedient demeanor vanished, and he sneered, "Trying to take it from me? Do you think you can win? I'm not afraid to tell you, even if you outmaneuver me, I don't care. All I want is the Zhang family's power. The rest is up to you!"
Lu Feng was surprised by Awei's candor and said, "Not bad, very ambitious, but lacking in ability."
After saying that, he followed. The villa was in such a mess that someone needed to clean it up.
In the 1990s, it was common for sons-in-law to move into their wives' homes. The inability to afford a wife was not a unique situation that arose many years later. In rural areas, it was common for poor people to marry into their wives' homes, and they had to be subservient to their husbands after moving in, so life was not easy.
Among them, there are quite a few shrewd individuals who set their sights on the daughters of leaders, married into their families, and made great strides in the business world, becoming business tycoons in China many years later.
Throughout the afternoon, Awei was exceptionally well-behaved, with his cousin praising him. Originally, the old man and Fengxia's father had a lukewarm impression of him, but by the afternoon, they were much more agreeable, which made Zhang Fengxia's teeth itch, but there was nothing she could do about it.
That evening, they booked a large restaurant not far away. In the private room, Zhang Fengxia pulled Lu Feng to sit next to her. Although her family wasn't very happy, they couldn't do anything about Zhang Fengxia. Besides, Awei had also expressed his opinion that afternoon that it was normal for people to date these days.
He could understand that Fengxia was deeply in love and needed time to get out of it. He believed that a good marriage was worth waiting for and protecting.
The whole family praised Awei for being so sensible and willing to wait for Fengxia. They said that Fengxia's life would definitely be comfortable after they got married.
At the dinner table, the whole family chatted and laughed with Awei, just like a family. Awei also had a big smile on his face, and he would occasionally toast and talk about his life abroad.
After several rounds of drinks and dishes, Fengxia's mother looked at Lu Feng and said, "Lu Feng, it's fate that we can all get together this Mid-Autumn Festival. If Fengxia weren't here, we wouldn't have been able to come to Shenzhen. Tomorrow, our family will be heading to Huijing. You're quite good, and you've spent a lot of time with Fengxia, but when it comes to marriage, it still depends on the family. Although we advocate free love, it's still a union of two families, don't you think?"
"Auntie is right!" Lu Feng nodded in agreement.
"What do you mean, 'right'? She's telling you to break up with me, and you're saying 'right, right, right'?" Zhang Fengxia put down her chopsticks and started to act spoiled. "I won't break up. I love him and I'm going to marry him. Don't talk to me about that. We won't break up these next few days. I can go to Huijing, and Lu Feng has to come with me. And tonight, we'll stay together!"
"Smack!"
Fengxia's father, looking furious, slammed his hand on the table and shouted, "You shameless bastard!"
