Rebirth: He Decides to Lie Flat -
Chapter 477 - 477 472 Is this entanglement too
Chapter 477: Chapter 472: Is this entanglement too? Chapter 477: Chapter 472: Is this entanglement too? I thought that would be the end of it. After all, Yu Feng’s words, though euphemistic, were clear enough, and they had parted ways only ten minutes after meeting… They were all adults; what was there not to understand?
But unexpectedly, while Yu Feng was shopping for clothes with his mother and sister, his senior brother called and excitedly told him, “The talk went well, didn’t it? The girl seemed quite satisfied with you too. Take things slow, and maybe next year, your senior brother can attend your wedding.”
The comment came out of nowhere and completely baffled Yu Feng.
“Wait, senior brother, what do you mean? I made it very clear to Miss Lin that I didn’t think we were a good match, so we parted ways after only ten minutes.”
“What? Parted ways after ten minutes? No… then why did Lin girl say you two had a great chat and she’s very satisfied with you?”
“She might be very satisfied with me, but I wasn’t too impressed with her. As for having a great chat, we barely said a few words to each other. If she found that enjoyable, then good for her.”
“…”
Dean Xiang said with a headache, “Not too satisfied? Ha, tell me, what kind of girl would you be very satisfied with?”
“How would I know? I’d have to meet her and feel a spark to know.”
“Feel a spark? Then go and see for yourself, why don’t you? In the past half year, the hospital has introduced you to at least fifteen, if not twenty women, haven’t they? When did you ever go?”
“Haven’t I been busy? Hey? Wait a minute, senior brother, why have you been on my case this year? You should be focusing on my big nephew; he’s only three years younger than me and is ready to get married and give you grandkids, isn’t he?”
“Dudu dudu…”
The busy tone sounded from the other side as Dean Xiang hung up the phone.
Yu Feng pocketed his phone and murmured, “Why are women so troublesome these days?”
He shook his head and sat down on a chair, waiting for the two women in his family to finish trying on clothes.
About half an hour later, Yu Feng’s phone rang again.
He took it out and saw an unfamiliar number he didn’t recognize, but he answered without a second thought.
Given the nature of his job as a doctor, sometimes, in urgent medical situations, the nurses wouldn’t have time to go to the nurses’ station and would use their own phones to call him. He didn’t save those numbers most of the time.
“Hello?”
“Is this Doctor Yu? Hello, I’m Xiaoling’s mother.”
Yu Feng: “…”
Wait, this matter wasn’t over yet?
He really didn’t understand Miss Lin’s train of thought. He had already spoken quite clearly and openly, so was it effective for her to play these little games with her family and the matchmaker?
Did they think they could strong-arm him into a relationship with her?
“Hello, Auntie. May I ask what’s the matter?”
“It’s like this, Doctor Yu. There seems to be some misunderstanding between you and my Xiaoling. She’s usually very steady and cautious in her speech, but her good friend is a bit indiscreet and often drags her into saying all kinds of off-the-wall things. I’ve warned her several times to keep her distance from that girl; we’re not on the same path. But my Xiaoling is kind-hearted and cares about saving face; she didn’t have the heart to reject her…”
Yu Feng didn’t quite follow; what did this have to do with her friend?
What exactly was the aunt trying to convey?
Because the other party was an elder speaking rapidly, one sentence after another, he didn’t have the chance or the heart to interrupt. So he just kept listening until she brought up his sister—
“…I guess your sister must have misunderstood, thinking that Xiaoling would go on a blind date with you first, and then introduce you to her good friend. Ah, how could that be possible? Everybody could do such a thing. She even feels as if she’s met you too late, so why would she give you away to someone else? It’s all a joke, not to be taken seriously. Doctor Yu ah…”
Yu Feng narrowed his eyes, but he still did not speak, just turned his head to glance at Mu Jiawen, who was still picking out clothes not far away, and then listened to the other party continue—
“I heard from the director that you have a very good relationship with your sister, and since she’s quite young, she’s not too happy about her brother finding a girlfriend, right? Ah, that’s understandable. Whatever Jiawen told you, Xiaoling won’t mind, it’s always been hard to get along with sisters-in-law. But I believe that as long as Jiawen gets to know our Xiaoling better, she’ll definitely like her…”
Sisters-in-law relationship?
Yu Feng really couldn’t listen anymore, he interrupted her, his voice very cold, “Auntie, you’re thinking too much. My sister hasn’t told me anything, and as for what your daughter and her friend have said, I’m not clear on that, nor am I interested in knowing. Just now at the cafe I think I made it clear to Miss Lin, I said we were not suitable and there’s no need to continue. Do you understand now?”
It was only because she was friends with his senior brother that he hadn’t hung up the phone already.
And she didn’t mind whatever his sister had told him, who was she to mind?
Do you have a right to mind?
“Wha, what? Your sister didn’t tell you?”
“No, maybe she thought it wasn’t necessary, so she didn’t mention it.”
The person on the other end seemed to be annoyed, or something else, in any case, it got very quiet on the phone, and she didn’t speak for a good while.
Yu Feng had no patience to dawdle with her, said he was busy with something, and then hung up the phone.
Mu Jiawen happened to bring a sweater over, held it up against his upper body to check, but it still seemed difficult to tell if it was suitable, so she asked him to take off his coat and try it on.
Yu Feng was happy, but after putting it on, it felt a bit large. He told her, “It’s too big, and a bit loose. Get a smaller size.”
“No, this one.”
“It’s not right, and I don’t really like wearing clothes this loose, and the color…”
Mu Jiawen looked at him oddly, “It’s not for you. What use is it if you like it?”
Yu Feng: …
He said darkly, “You can buy clothes for that kid to try on, but you don’t think to buy one for your brother?”
Mu Jiawen pouted, “Forget it, if I bought you something, the eldest brother and third brother would comment. And if I bought the same thing for all three of you, you’d complain about wearing the same outfit. It’s even more troublesome to buy different items, especially for the eldest brother. Last time I bought him a plaid shirt, he even complained the squares weren’t symmetrical… Forget it, I won’t buy for any of you three.”
After saying that, she picked up the sweater Yu Feng had taken off to go pay.
Yu Feng followed her and asked, “Did you by any chance overhear that Miss Lin on the phone today?”
“I heard it. She wants you to be her friend’s fallback guy.” After saying that, Mu Jiawen turned her head and asked curiously, “Wasn’t it over? Why is she calling again to talk about this, what does it mean?”
She didn’t mean to not tell her second brother, it’s just that she wasn’t interested to begin with, so there was no need to say more.
And when Yu Feng heard the words “fallback guy,” his face darkened instantly.
Just then his senior brother, Director Xiang, called him again. Yu Feng guessed that it must have been Miss Lin’s mother going to Director Xiang again.
Really, is there no end to this?
Suppressing the anger in his heart, he answered the phone, then without waiting for his senior brother to speak, he directly threw Mu Jiawen’s words at him…..
