Chapter 143 A Close Call
Mr. Feng had seen through Lin Xu's worries, and now he felt a little embarrassed when it was brought up in front of Zhou Yan.
Lin Xu scratched his head: "At that time, I never thought that I would be with him now. It was the most entangled and distressed time..."
"So you're scared when you see I've been alone all my life? Did you go back and confess your love to me?" Mr. Feng asked with a smile.
"Yes... I'm still a little scared..." Lin Xu said the truth.
"But he didn't need to confess. I fell in love with him, so I confessed first." Zhou Yan helped him complete the rest of his words.
Old Feng looked at Lin Xu with satisfaction, muttering, "Good... Really good..."
Lin Xu felt bad. When he was young, Mr. Feng must have dreamed of this day, too. But the reality was that such a low-probability event wouldn't happen to everyone.
"Don't feel sorry for me. When I was your age, I did feel regretful, but at my age, love is no longer the most important thing in my life. It's just right that you're here. I don't have much experience in relationships, but when it comes to business, I do have some ideas. Aren't you running a B&B? Stay here for a few days and I'll see if there's anything I can do for you."
Zhou Yan has been in the business world for many years and knows the weight of Mr. Feng's words.
He had only met Mr. Feng once, and Lin Xu did not have a close relationship with him, but he was willing to share his experience and resources with them, which was a great recognition.
People like him, if they want to give someone some advice, they can save that person ten years of hard work just by talking.
"Thank you very much." Zhou Yan thanked him solemnly.
Mr. Feng smiled and took a few breaths. "I'll have someone arrange a room for you. We can talk after dinner. I have to rest for a while."
"Okay, I'll take you back to your room." Lin Xu helped Mr. Feng up.
Mr. Feng did not refuse and let Lin Xu help him back to the room and lie down.
I was still muttering: "It's so good..."
Lin Xu's nose felt sore, and he held back his tears and went to find Zhou Yan.
Zhou Yan was looking at the flowers in the flower bed outside the main house. Lin Xu walked over and squatted beside him.
"I think even though Mr. Feng says he doesn't regret it anymore, he still cares deeply. Otherwise, he wouldn't keep saying how great it is that we're together."
"Don't think too much." Zhou Yan rubbed his hair, not wanting him to be entangled in other people's emotions.
This problem has no solution, or it can be said that there is no need to solve it.
The appearance of the two of them may have brought Mr. Feng another form of perfection, and that is enough.
"Did you design this manor? It's so beautiful." Zhou Yan changed the subject.
Lin Xu nodded. "Yes, this is the first major project I've completed independently since joining Qingying. Mr. Feng also liked it very much, so the construction was done without any modifications. I also noticed it when I came here just now. The overall maintenance is very good and it is almost in its original state."
"You're such a talented player. I'll have to work hard to make money and buy a manor in the future. I'll let you design it yourself, and we can both live there in our old age. We'll go fishing and grow some flowers."
"That's going to cost a lot of money. How many lifetimes can we earn that much from running our little B&B?"
Zhou Yan nodded his head. "You're really a hands-off boss. Didn't you take my previous investment in the tea plantation seriously? And my plan is to expand our wild mushroom workshop next year."
Lin Xu rubbed his head and chuckled, "You're awesome, that's all. I don't understand these things, and if I were to invest, wouldn't I lose everything?"
"Aren't you afraid that I might 'sell' you out one day?"
"Don't be afraid. I'm not really stupid. I can feel whether you love me or not, and whether you treat me well or not. You give me enough sense of security, and you make me believe that you love me."
Zhou Yan held Lin Xu tightly in his arms.
Being loved is a kind of happiness, and having your love felt, believed and cherished by the other person is also a kind of happiness.
Zhou Yan has it all.
At dinner time, Mr. Feng woke up.
I had dinner with them, and then sat in the yard drinking tea and chatting.
Mr. Feng and Zhou Yan have a lot of common topics to talk about.
Knowing that he was not only running a B&B but also investing in local tea plantations, he gave Zhou Yan a lot of useful advice.
Mr. Feng also owns shares in a tea garden and is very familiar with this industry.
Although the type of tea invested by Zhou Yan is different, the sales channels and brand marketing are similar.
He also introduced several friends to Zhou Yan.
Zhou Yan is only a somewhat childish boy in front of Lin Xu.
He is a very mature and steady man at work, with ideas and decision-making ability. Mr. Feng likes him very much and is willing to help them to the best of his ability.
The main reason was because he saw the relationship between Lin Xu and Zhou Yan.
The aura between people cannot be faked. Lin Xu is very happy now, and Zhou Yan loves him wholeheartedly. Mr. Feng is more than just relieved.
Just as Zhou Yan said, seeing young people fulfill his unfulfilled wishes at the end of his life is also another form of fulfillment.
On the second night after arriving at the manor, Mr. Feng suddenly fell ill.
Heart rate drops, blood pressure drops, and consciousness becomes confused.
The housekeeper had an emergency plan, and medical staff immediately sent Mr. Feng to the hospital. Zhou Yan and Lin Xu also went with them.
Mr. Feng was pushed into the emergency room, while Zhou Yan, Lin Xu and the housekeeper waited outside.
The butler has followed Mr. Feng for many years and is now in his sixties. His relationship with Mr. Feng is far more than an employment relationship, but more like a family member.
Lin Xu comforted him while waiting anxiously with Zhou Yan.
Fortunately, there was no danger. After the injection of medicine, Mr. Feng's condition stabilized.
"His mood swings have been quite a bit lately, haven't they? This is the nature of his illness. Excitement, fatigue, sadness, even happiness can easily cause arrhythmia. It's better to try to keep him stable for the last few months." The doctor gave advice.
The housekeeper blamed himself a little: "It was all my own decision. I wanted him to have fewer regrets... and I saw he was too lonely..."
"It's not your fault. I might do the same." Zhou Yan comforted.
In the morning, Mr. Feng was sent to the intensive care unit. He was still asleep and all his indicators were stable.
In the morning, Rongrong's grandfather came.
"How is he?" the old man asked Mr. Feng's housekeeper.
"I'm fine now. Maybe I'm a little tired these past few days."
The old man breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Lin Xu: "Have we - met somewhere before?"
Lin Xu nodded: "Yes, I am the designer of the manor where Mr. Feng lives."
"Oh, I remember now. Why did you come to see him?"
"Mr. Feng and Xiaolin had a great liking for each other and kept talking about wanting to see him, so I took it upon myself to invite Xiaolin over. It's also my fault, otherwise he wouldn't be so emotionally unstable."
The old man patted the housekeeper's shoulder and said, "Don't say that. He loves to be lively and to make friends. He must be lonely living alone in such a big garden. Instead of letting him spend his days looking at the sky, it's better to let him meet the people he wants to meet."
They have been lifelong friends and understand each other.
The old man looked at Zhou Yan again: "Then who is this——?"
Zhou Yan introduced herself: "I am Lin Xu's lover, Zhou Yan."
