Chapter 769: Chapter 771 My Mom Definitely Won’t Take a Fancy to You
The next morning, after encountering a Xu Jiao dressed in what seed like an innocent attire, which nearly made her unrecognizable.
Lin Fei’s expression was quite a spectacle, truly a spectacle.
“Gu Lanzi is your mom?!”
“The friend my mom ntioned is actually you, uncle?!”
Compared to the vibrant expression on Lin Fei’s face, Xu Jiao—who had altered her usual non-mainstream look when eting Lin Fei—undoubtedly had an even more colorful expression!
From the questions exchanged between Xu Jiao and Lin Fei, it was clear.
The reason they t today was not that Xu Jiao had the idea to ask Lin Fei out to hang out with her. Of course, it wasn’t because Lin Fei was thinking of asking this teenage girl out for a eting either.
The reason they t today was entirely due to a misunderstanding.
To be more precise, this all stemd from the powerful deputy leader Gu Lanzi.
The busy Mayor Gu, unable to spend ti with her daughter, had enlisted Lin Fei to step in. Unfortunately, Gu Lanzi was unaware that Lin Fei knew this teenager Xu Jiao.
Hence, this mont that made both Lin Fei and Xu Jiao’s expressions particularly striking ca about.
Thankfully, Lin Fei had a strong ntal capacity and was the first to recover from the awkward atmosphere.
Reaching into his pocket, he pulled out a cigarette and took a few drags before sizing up Xu Jiao with a searching look.
Then, Lin Fei, with a hint of mystery, leaned closer to Xu Jiao and asked in a low voice, “Hey girl, tell
the truth, Gu Lanzi is your stepmom, isn’t she?!”
“What?! Uncle, are you out of your mind? Your mom is your stepmom!” Upon hearing Lin Fei’s overstepping suspicion about her mother-daughter relationship with the powerful deputy leader Gu Lanzi, Xu Jiao imdiately placed her hands on her hips and glared at Lin Fei. “Uncle, I’m warning you, I’ll pretend I didn’t hear what you just said this ti, but if you dare to spout nonsense again. I won’t be so polite to you!”
The last sentence was practically roared by Xu Jiao. And after she finished, she nacingly raised her little fist at Lin Fei.
Judging by her deanor, if it weren’t for their previously good rapport, just based on Lin Fei’s doubt about her blood relation to the powerful deputy leader Gu Lanzi, the girl might have already resorted to much less polite asures.
“Alright, alright, I get it. Your birth mom or stepmom, isn’t it all the sa? I was just asking, no other implication. The main thing is that your mom looks so young, nobody would guess she has a daughter as old as you.”
Nonchalantly brushing off Xu Jiao’s little fists that were ant to be threatening, Lin Fei took another puff of his cigarette, evidently a touch exasperated.
Speaking of which, he really couldn’t be blad for his lack of eloquence.
The truth was, Gu Lanzi, the authoritative deputy leader, took really good care of herself. Based on her appearance and figure alone, Lin Fei couldn’t imagine how she could have a nearly adult daughter like Xu Jiao.
Yesterday, while at the coffee shop agreeing to help Gu Lanzi with her daughter,
Lin Fei had estimated Xu Jiao’s age to be around eight or nine years old in his mind.
Consequently, one couldn’t bla Lin Fei for doubting whether this teenage girl was truly Gu Lanzi’s biological child.
“Girl, be honest with . I’m asking you, you—”
“It’s
who should be asking the questions, Uncle!” Xu Jiao, hands on her hips, interrupted Lin Fei’s inquiry with her delicate voice, and then glared at him with slight dissatisfaction, saying, “Uncle, co clean with , how do you know my mom?!”
“You want to know?”
“Of course! Uncle, I’m warning you, confess and you’ll be treated leniently, resist and you’ll be dealt with severely!”
“You little rascal, getting too big for your boots, huh? Are the affairs of adults sothing for you to ask about? Watch it, I’ll call your mom right now. Wait till you get ho, and she’ll spank you.”
“Hmph, Uncle, quit spouting nonsense here. My mom wouldn’t hit .”
“Oh really, in that case, it seems Gu Lanzi really is your mother.”
“Ah—Uncle, you’re too annoying!”
“Alright, alright, let’s end this topic here. Weren’t you going to go shopping? Don’t waste ti standing around, let’s hurry up and go,” Lin Fei said, intending to pull the teenage girl Xu Jiao into the mall.
Unfortunately for him, shopping was clearly not on this teenage girl’s agenda.
“Uncle, don’t think you can distract
with shopping. Today, you have to make it clear to
how exactly you know my mom, or else I’m not going anywhere!”
“Suit yourself, I have no interest in shopping anyway. If there’s nothing else, I’m going ho.”
“You can’t leave! Uncle, if you don’t co clean with
today, you’re not allowed to go anywhere!”
Xu Jiao was obviously serious; after she finished speaking, the girl who had just extended her arms to block Lin Fei’s way decisively wrapped her arms around him for a hug.
Clutching him tight, thankfully Lin Fei was physically fit. If it had been soone else who was less robust, and they’d been hugged by this teenager for a while,
even if they didn’t suffocate to death, they would certainly feel extrely uncomfortable being squeezed that tightly.
Seeing as the teenager had already taken to hugging him,
due to his fondness for the girl, as well as his feelings for the influential deputy leader Gu Lanzi, Lin Fei obviously couldn’t just violently push the girl away.
Therefore, Lin Fie had no choice but to lower his head and speak gently to the teenage girl Xu Jiao, “Girl, since you really want to know, I’ll tell you—it’s not a big deal. However, I must remind you to be ntally prepared, because what I’m going to say next might be hard for you to accept.”
“Uncle, you’re not going to tell
you’re having an affair with my mom, are you?!”
As Xu Jiao bluntly put it, interrogating him about his private relationship with the influential deputy leader Gu Lanzi, Lin Fei couldn’t help but express surprise, “How did you know?!”
“Uncle, if you’re going to put it that way, it’s really no fun!” Compared to Lin Fei, who was startled by his secret being prodded, the look Xu Jiao directed at him clearly contained so disdain.
“Girl, what do you an by that?!”
“Uncle, that’s sothing I should be asking you! To start with, you’re completely unsuitable for my mom. Even if my mom and I were blind and took a fancy to you, just the fact that you smoke would be enough for my mom to kick you to the curb,” Xu Jiao said while rolling her eyes at Lin Fei, and then she let him go.
Then, the girl pointed her finger and poked at the cheap cigarettes in Lin Fei’s pocket, adding, “I’m not afraid to tell you, Uncle, my mom detests n who smoke. Soone like you, always with a cigarette in hand, my mom would never take a liking to you.”
