Chapter 715: Chapter 715: Dabao Seems to Have a Girlfriend Now!

Sitting in the teahouse, they watched a play while snacking on treats.

Truth be told, although Lin Feng didn’t understand the opera, that didn’t stop him from appreciating the lilting chants and their certain charm. Paired with a sip of tea, the whole experience simply ca alive.

Most of the patrons were elderly, with only a few young people scattered about.

While the n enjoyed their leisurely ti, the won were out for a lively shopping trip. So discussed having afternoon tea, others talked about going shopping for new product releases, and so considered going for beauty treatnts.

Mrs. Qin naturally wanted to prioritize her in-law’s preferences. "Let’s ask Mrs. Lin what she thinks and see what she enjoys."

"What do you usually do in the afternoons?" she asked Zhang Yuxi.

Zhang Yuxi was candid. "I’m usually busy with work from the Education Bureau, like inspecting schools or visiting rural townships to check on things."

Education in so of Yangcheng’s remote suburbs was lagging, so their main task in recent years had been visiting these townships to ensure the educational work was up to standard. Since becoming a teacher more than twenty years ago, she had never had afternoon tea, and she only went shopping for holidays and festivals. Most of her clothes ca from her second child; as long as they weren’t too flashy, they were perfectly fine.

"Oh my, that’s quite tough. It’s not easy being an educator!"

"Exactly! I’ve seen on the news how hard you all work."

Qian Shu, Dai Quan’s wife, ca from a scholarly family and naturally viewed Zhang Yuxi through rose-colored glasses.

"In that case, let’s go sit and have so tea. I have so fine tea at my place, along with so excellent books."

Qian Shu didn’t speak much in their social circle, but her status was high. She was a true lady of Jingcheng society, and with both her husband’s family and her own being prestigious and influential, her words carried weight.

No one wanted to slight her, so they all readily agreed to visit her ho.

Qian Shu’s ho was also a courtyard house, even more elegant than Mrs. Qin’s. The couplets and calligraphy on display were all her own work. Her study alone took up half the house and was filled with nurous authentic masterpieces.

"I’ll brew so tea for you."

Both Qian Shu and Mrs. Qin were gentle souls who spoke softly and moved with unhurried grace. Qian Shu’s movents as she prepared the tea were as smooth as flowing water. While Zhang Yuxi didn’t understand the art of the tea ceremony, she was deeply impressed by the woman’s refined aura.

Sipping tea, chatting, and reading books with the sunlight streaming in, the scene was a picture of peaceful bliss.

Though these ladies were fond of their daily makeup routines, they were not lacking in culture and could certainly hold their own in a discussion about literature. But as they talked, the conversation inevitably circled back to their children. Recalling how Zhang Yuxi knew next to nothing when they’d asked about her own children, the won refrained from asking further.

"Have your two sons started dating?" one of them eventually asked.

With a faint smile, Zhang Yuxi indicated that she didn’t know. "If they were, they would tell . It doesn’t matter what their partner’s circumstances are, as long as my sons are happy."

One of the other ladies hesitated for a mont before speaking. "Sister Zhang, just take this with a grain of salt and don’t let it trouble you."

"I heard that the young lady from the Cai Family is dating your eldest son."

Zhang Yuxi was puzzled. "The Cai Family? Which Cai Family?"

"The one from the family of diplomats," the lady replied.

Mrs. Qin, Qian Shu, and the others imdiately understood.

Zhang Yuxi wasn’t from Jingcheng and was unfamiliar with the Cai Family, but she did know of a prominent diplomat with the surna Cai. Suddenly, an idea struck her.

"Is it Cai Xia?" she asked.

Mrs. Qin smiled faintly. "Yes, it’s her."

The reason Zhang Yuxi knew the na was that Cai Xia’s online presence was imnse. She was not only a diplomat but also an interpreter. No matter the occasion, she appeared with exquisite makeup and well-fitting suits. Even her stunningly beautiful face couldn’t outshine her formidable, commanding presence. Soone had even produced a feature on her life story; the world of a top student, her entire journey seed like a continuous winning streak. In the social circles of Jingcheng, she was a constant topic of conversation.

Mrs. Qin asked the woman, "Where did you hear this news?"

"My daughter told ," she replied. "You know how she loves gossip from our circle, but who knows if it’s true or not."

Another woman chid in, "If they really are together, that’s wonderful. Both children are so outstanding."

After chatting for nearly two hours, they exchanged contact information and departed.

Once they were alone, Mrs. Qin began to speak about Cai Xia. The information online was only what could be officially verified; what she shared was much less known to the public.

"I’ve t that child, Cai Xia. She’s truly wonderful. I’ve also gone out with her mother, who has a great personality and temperant."

"They only have the one daughter, Cai Xia. Her mother suffered a severe hemorrhage during childbirth and had to have a hysterectomy."

Mrs. Qin had nothing but praise for the Cai family and had even once fancifully entertained the idea of proposing a match. Although the Cai Family was known as a family of diplomats, those in the know understood there was much more to them than that. Barring any unforeseen circumstances, Cai Xia was expected to follow in her father’s footsteps, or perhaps go even further.

Zhang Yuxi listened, all the while thinking she would have to ask Big Bao about this when she got back.

That evening, they went to Lin Jie’s place for dinner with Wen Xiaoya’s parents before planning to head back the next day.

Mrs. Qin held Zhang Yuxi’s hand, reluctant to see her go. "You must co visit again soon. Or, when I have ti, I’ll co up to see you."

Zhang Yuxi smiled. "Of course. We’ll co for the New Year!"

Mrs. Qin’s face lit up. "You said it! You must co for the New Year to liven things up."

The children had wandered off to play sowhere, so Lin Feng and Zhang Yuxi returned to the hotel first to rest, shower, and change their clothes.

"Honey, I have sothing to tell you when we get back," Zhang Yuxi said mysteriously in the car.

Seeing her secretive expression, Lin Feng laughed. "What is it?"

Zhang Yuxi pursed her lips. "I’ll tell you when we get back."

The mont they got out of the car, Zhang Yuxi couldn’t wait to share the gossip about their son with her husband.

"I heard from one of the ladies today... it seems Big Bao has a girlfriend!"

Lin Feng thought the use of ’seems’ was quite clever!

He asked, "So does he have a girlfriend, or not?"

Zhang Yuxi glared at him. "You’re asking ? Who am I supposed to ask? I only heard rumors, and they aren’t sure either."

Lin Feng grunted in acknowledgnt. "Whose daughter is she?"

Zhang Yuxi’s eyes crinkled as she broke into an even bigger smile. "Cai Xia."

Lin Feng savored the na; it sounded vaguely familiar. "Hmm... I think I’ve heard that na. Is she an actress?"

Zhang Yuxi pulled out her phone and showed Lin Feng her entry on an online encyclopedia.

"That’s her!"

Lin Feng wasn’t particularly surprised. In his eyes, all of his children were exceptional. As long as they were happy, it wouldn’t be strange even if they married a princess or a prince. Moreover, with Shao Yang and Qin Jiang setting such sterling examples, it wasn’t at all unexpected that Big Bao would fall for soone like Cai Xia.

"Mrs. Qin spoke very highly of the Cai Family and Cai Xia, so her character must be good."

Lin Feng humd in agreent. "Our son has excellent judgnt. No matter who he likes, as long as he’s happy, I’ll support him."

Seeing his wife’s unbridled joy, Lin Feng chuckled.

"Look how happy you are. It’s not even a sure thing yet."

Zhang Yuxi’s outlook was decidedly optimistic. "But what if it’s true? If you round up, they’re practically a married couple!"

Lin Feng just shook his head.

Sotis, a woman’s logic could be truly wild!
