Chapter 42 It's All My Fault



In the following days, the entire Chen family was busy with Chen Haoran's transfer to another school, and Chen Feng's days were also fulfilling and peaceful.

Every morning after waking up, Chen Feng would go for a run around the wall of the Ancient City University of Finance and Economics. After washing up, he would go to the library, where he would spend time with Li Wanwan while trading stocks. After finishing work, he would go to the driving school to practice driving, and occasionally take the young rich woman out for "shopping and eating".

By the time he finished all his business, night had already quietly fallen.

However, Chen Feng never found an opportunity to deepen his relationship with Li Xiaogang.

no way.

Li Xiaogang found a job guarding a construction site. He would leave before dark and not return to Hejia Village until dawn, which was the exact opposite of Chen Feng's schedule.

However, although he doesn't interact much with his good brother, Chen Feng's relationship with Li Wanwan is gradually warming up.

Chen Feng could sense that Li Wanwan was becoming increasingly dependent on him.

Moreover, the young heiress no longer always has a tense expression.

Li Wanwan would smile whenever she saw Chen Feng.

Chen Feng's attitude towards Li Wanwan changed from wanting to keep his distance to letting things take their course and accepting whatever comes his way.

Why?

Because of Li Wanwan's actions at the Bai Nao Hui, Chen Feng felt a long-lost warmth!

Chen Feng was wronged, and the rich young woman did her best to help him get revenge, but he deliberately avoided her.

If he really did that, would he still be human?

...

In the blink of an eye, a week has passed.

With Chen Shih-han's full efforts, Chen Haoran transferred to the 21st Middle School of the Ancient City.

Wang Yaqin threw a big banquet in her newly rented three-bedroom apartment in the ancient city, partly to celebrate Chen Haoran's successful transfer to another school, and partly to cheer on her beloved son.

"Mom, where's my eldest sister?"

Sitting at the dining table, Chen Haoran said to Wang Yaqin, "I was able to study in the ancient city in my senior year of high school thanks to my older sister. I can't eat without her."

Upon hearing this, Wang Yaqin's lips curled up slightly, revealing a gratified smile.

"Haoran is so sensible. He knows how to be grateful at such a young age. Once you finish university, you will definitely become a pillar of the Chen family and a useful talent for the country."

After saying that, Wang Yaqin turned to Chen Siqi and asked, "Siqi, I told you to tell Shihan to come back early. Did you call her?"

"Don't worry, Mom, I already called."

Chen Siqi smiled and said, "My older sister said she doesn't have anything to do today and can come back after work. Judging by the time, she should be here soon."

"Squeak!"

As they were talking, Chen Shih-han opened the door and came in.

"Big sister, we've been thinking about you."

Chen Haoran said quickly, "Come and eat, the food will get cold if you wait any longer."

Wang Yaqin scolded, "Why did you only come back now? Haoran said he wouldn't eat if you weren't there."

Chen Shihhan walked to the dining table, first patted Chen Haoran's head, and then glanced at the food on the table.

Unlike when she was at the Chen family's house, this time Wang Yaqin did not cook herself, but instead packed some food from a restaurant;

Just like when we were at the Chen family's house, this time, the table was full of delicious food.

There are Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, Steamed Bird's Nest, Rock Sugar Bird's Nest, Braised Shark Fin with Orchid, as well as White Truffle Donuts and Lobster Omelettes.

These dishes together would cost at least ten thousand yuan.

This is also Wang Yaqin's consistent style.

She didn't care about the Chen family's financial situation; all she knew was that she couldn't let her precious daughter suffer, no matter who else was at fault.

"Mom, why did you buy so many expensive dishes?"

Chen Shih-Han frowned slightly and asked, "Can we finish this?"

"Whether we can finish the food or not is not important; what's important is to nourish Haoran's body."

Wang Yaqin turned to look at Chen Haoran, her eyes full of affection, "Gucheng No. 21 Middle School is a well-known key high school. After school starts, Haoran will definitely have a lot of academic pressure, so he must keep up with his nutrition."

"Even if it's to supplement Haoran's nutrition, is such extravagance really necessary?"

Chen Shih-han pursed her lips. "Don't forget, in another month, our family still has to pay 300,000 yuan in school selection sponsorship fees."

As Wang Yaqin just said, No. 21 Middle School is a key high school, and Chen Haoran's academic performance has declined significantly. Moreover, his household registration is not in the ancient city. Without paying a price, it is impossible for him to study at No. 21 Middle School.

Chen Shih-Han used all her connections to reduce the school selection sponsorship fee from 500,000 to 300,000.

While Chen Shihhan was still racking her brains about where to get the 300,000 yuan school selection sponsorship fee, Wang Yaqin was actually spending five figures on a single dinner.

Let alone Chen Shih-han, anyone would probably feel dissatisfied.

"It's just..."

Wang Yaqin wanted to say, "It's just a 300,000 yuan school selection sponsorship fee. It's nothing, nothing to worry about."

But she only managed to say three words before swallowing the rest.

For the Chen family now, 300,000 is indeed not a small amount.

After all, almost all of the Chen family's available cash flow each month was used to pay off the parents of that pregnant girl.

"I...I was just celebrating..."

Wang Yaqin muttered something to herself, feeling a little guilty.

This one sentence enraged Chen Shih-han.

"Celebrate? Celebrate what?"

Chen Shih-Han asked coldly, "Are you celebrating Chen Feng running away from home and not returning yet?"

Upon hearing this, the air seemed to freeze instantly, and even the temperature seemed to drop several degrees.

Chen Haoran glanced at Chen Shihhan, then at Wang Yaqin, a hint of embarrassment creeping onto his face.

Chen Shihhan was clearly blinded by anger and did not notice the change in Chen Haoran's expression. She continued, "Mom, it's good that you're trying so hard to make Haoran nutritious, but have you ever thought that your other son can't even get a meal in the Chen family?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Yaqin's face darkened considerably.

"Shihan, what's wrong with you?"

"Have you forgotten what I said before?"

"No one is allowed to mention that little bastard in front of me. Just hearing his name makes me sick!"

Why are you bringing him up out of the blue?

"Can't you just let me have a good time tonight?"

Chen Shih-han let out a long sigh.

She had made everything clear, but her mother still hadn't realized her mistake, or even shown any sign of reflecting on it.

When Chen Feng was at the Chen family home, she didn't think his situation was that bad.

But now, she fully understands Chen Feng's despair.

"Mom, Chen Feng is also your son."

"A mother shouldn't be too biased."

"You all enjoy your meal and celebrate. I'm not feeling well, so I'll be leaving now."

After saying that, Chen Shih-han turned and left.

"What exactly does the boss want to do?"

Wang Yaqin roared, "Does she want to drive me to my death?"

"Mom, getting angry is bad for your health, please don't get angry."

Chen Haoran said pitifully, "It's all my fault. I'm the one who made our family so poor."

"It's not my sister's fault, it's all my fault."
