Chapter 361: Chapter 212: No Need to Be Polite to Her_2

Since someone went, of course, the gift money can’t be too little. Especially for Zhao Xiaolan as an elder, who is the bride’s grandmother’s younger sister, the gift money especially can’t be too little.

However, for Chen Feng’s family to get back the gift money they sent, it seems like they’ll have to wait until Chen Feng’s two nieces get married, which is at least ten years from now.

Of course, it could also be when Chen Feng remarries and throws a banquet, they’d send him a red envelope. But Chen Feng has no such plan.

Even if he does remarry in the future, he wouldn’t voluntarily send invitations to his cousins, at most just call a few male cousins, as per the generally accepted custom and tradition over there.

[Alright then. You handle my gift money. Same as my elder brother’s.]

[Okay. Are you really not coming back?]

Zhao Xiaolan obviously wants her son to come home.

Although Chen Feng misses his family a bit too, he’s not used to being at home and being constantly supervised by his mother. Moreover, he’s used to the fast-paced life of the big city and doesn’t feel comfortable staying in the countryside.

[I still have things to do here, can’t go back for now.]

[Alright, alright, you always have excuses. If you can confirm a relationship with Mengting, mom wouldn’t mind you staying there in Xiu Zhou.]

[Let’s talk about this later. Mom, I have something to do, let’s leave it at this for now.]

[You brat! What’s wrong with Tingting? You’re really driving me crazy. Anyway, I’ve decided she’s the daughter-in-law I want, no other woman will do. Keep that in mind.]

Chen Feng felt helpless and could only avoid the topic for now.

Then Chen Feng opened a message from Wu Mengting, saying she would stay in Xiu Zhou for a few more days and asked if there was anything he needed her to handle there, since she’s his personal assistant now.

To be honest, besides previously taking turns with Sun Xiaorui to act as his nanny, accompanying him on nationwide trips to book flights and hotels, this personal assistant hadn’t helped him do much.

Especially since she received her first month’s salary from Chen Feng yesterday, a full ten thousand yuan.

She felt a bit guilty about taking the money and wanted to do more for Chen Feng.

But obviously, Chen Feng didn’t need her to do anything for him at the moment.

[You just take good care of your dad in the hospital now. In a few days, I also need to go back to Lu City to get the property certificate for the shop. We’ll meet and talk then.]

[OK]

Finally, Chen Feng checked the messages from Hong Xiaodan. She had been messaging him almost every day lately.

Especially knowing he’s back home these days, she sends several messages daily, wanting to join him for meals or invite him out to eat.

At first, Chen Feng would reply and politely decline, but later he couldn’t be bothered to reply anymore.

In these past two days, she even rang the doorbell directly, and it was always Sun Xiaorui who answered, using the excuse that Chen Feng wasn’t home to refuse her entry.

Hong Xiaodan surely wasn’t that easy to fool. How could it be possible that Chen Feng wasn’t home in the morning, not home at noon, and not home in the evening? Fooling nobody.

In order to see Chen Feng again, she woke up early each day, waiting outside the house for Chen Feng to go out for a morning exercise like last time.

In the end, she waited a few days but never saw him.

And Chen Feng, to avoid her, didn’t jog outside in the mornings but exercised on the treadmill at home.

Chen Feng was really painstaking in his efforts to avoid her.

Originally, Chen Feng thought that by no longer contacting or seeing her so obviously, a proud girl like Hong Xiaodan would give up.

But he underestimated Hong Xiaodan’s persistence and his own allure to her.

This message she sent was almost the same as before, inviting him to go out for a meal.

Chen Feng glanced at it and ignored it, getting up from the cushion and heading out the door.

It was now past ten in the morning, and Sun Xiaorui was busy preparing lunch for the two of them in the downstairs kitchen. Even though there were just two people, Sun Xiaorui insisted on making four dishes and a soup for a balanced nutrition.

Chen Feng went down to the first-floor lobby, sat on the sofa, and casually poured himself a cup of tea from the pot on the coffee table. The temperature was just right, as Sun Xiaorui had prepared it beforehand, ready for him to drink after finishing his meditation.

He turned on the TV, sipping tea while watching the news.

Just then, the doorbell rang, causing Chen Feng to frown slightly. It was no surprise that it was Hong Xiaodan again. This girl was really stubbornly persistent.

"I’ll get the door!"

Sun Xiaorui, having heard it too, knew it was probably Hong Xiaodan, annoyed and ready to answer the door. These days, Hong Xiaodan had been ringing the bell several times a day, clearly harassing them on purpose.

Seeing this, Chen Feng stood up and said, "Forget it, I’ll go get the door. She won’t give up until she sees me."

Sun Xiaorui couldn’t help but comment, "This kind of woman has such thick skin, you don’t have to be polite to her."

Chen Feng nodded and went to open the door.

Standing at the door, as expected, was Hong Xiaodan. Seeing Chen Feng open the door, her face immediately lit up with a brilliant smile. "Chen Feng, I finally got to see you. You never answer your phone, don’t reply to WeChat, and you hide from me when I knock. Do I annoy you that much?"

Chen Feng thought to himself, since you know that, is it fun to shamelessly come to my door?

"Not so much annoyance, but I don’t want to be harassed every day. I hope you won’t bother us in the future. We have our own lives, and you should have yours, too. Let’s live our separate lives, okay?"

Chen Feng spoke with a stern face, the words coming out quite unfriendly.

The smile on Hong Xiaodan’s face slowly disappeared, her eyes filled with anger and disappointment, and she unconsciously waved her right hand, saying, "If I really harassed you, I’m very sorry. Alright, I get it, I’ll leave."

After saying this, she immediately turned around and left. Although she was thick-skinned, she wasn’t a woman without dignity. What’s more, this was Chen Feng himself saying such heavy words, which made her heart feel terribly blocked, extremely uncomfortable.

When she first turned around, her steps were still normal and steady, but she quickened her pace after a few steps, eventually running back to her house, opening the door, and slamming it forcefully behind her before blurry-eyed, she fell onto the living room sofa, crying sorrowfully.

She had never been treated and rejected so rudely before, especially by someone she cared about. The frustration was really unbearable.

"Chen Feng, one day, I’ll make you regret this!"

Hong Xiaodan gritted her teeth, silently vowing to find an opportunity to make Chen Feng pay in the future.

Chen Feng watched as Hong Xiaodan ran off with an obviously upset face and shook his head secretly; short-term pain is better than long-term pain. He was simply not interested in Hong Xiaodan; she was not his type.

Moreover, being frequently harassed by Hong Xiaodan really made him uncomfortable. With Hong Xiaodan like this, his aunt’s face certainly wouldn’t work anymore.

Yet he didn’t realize that by refusing her so decisively, he had already made Hong Xiaodan hate him.
