Chapter 265: Chapter 265: Family Banquet
Ling Feng chuckled. "You see, I hold several worlds in my heart, and I want to make each and every one of them exceptionally beautiful!"
Li Shiyun was sowhat puzzled and asked with confusion, "Several worlds?"
"Yep, and you’re one of them!" Ling Feng said with a smile.
"Huh?"
Li Shiyun beca even more bewildered, her eyes brimming with incomprehension.
Ling Feng tightened his embrace around her shoulders. "Silly girl, just like them, you are my entire world!"
"Oh!"
Now Li Shiyun understood, and she snuggled back into his arms. It took a while before she asked in a faint voice, "So how many worlds do you have now?"
Ling Feng chuckled again, but before he could answer, his phone started ringing.
It was Chen Yuhe calling. As soon as he answered, she imdiately asked, "Why aren’t you up yet? Hurry back, there’s sothing good to see!"
Suppressing his laughter, Ling Feng said, "Sothing good? Could it be the fruit trees in my backyard have borne fruit?"
"Uh... how did you know?" Chen Yuhe was taken aback.
"Of course I know, and there are even more goodies on the western hillside. You two lazybones woke up too late!" Ling Feng exclaid.
Hearing this, Chen Yuhe abruptly hung up the phone, leaving it uncertain whether she was angry or had hurried off to co over.
After putting his phone away, Ling Feng glanced at Li Shiyun. "Let’s go, it’s ti to get so help to harvest the fruit!"
"I’ve already got everything arranged. One phone call and everyone in the village, young and old, will co!" Li Shiyun said.
"Really? You’re so thoughtful!"
Ling Feng laughed upon hearing this and leaned in to give her a kiss, but Li Shiyun quickly dodged away with an expression of distaste. "Hmph! Bad guy!"
At ten in the morning, two large trucks arrived in Shiliu Village, filled with empty boxes for the fruit.
Just as Li Shiyun had said, the villagers of Shiliu Village all ca up the mountain to help with the harvest. In no ti, the previously barren slopes were filled with laughter and lively chatter.
Ling Feng loved wealth but wasn’t greedy. While harvesting, he told everyone that those who ca to help wouldn’t just be paid for their labor but could also take ho two boxes of fruit to enjoy after the harvest, which earned him unanimous praise from the villagers.
Not only the villagers, but Ling Feng also specially reminded the drivers who ca to transport the goods to reserve twenty boxes of fruit.
These were to be sent as gifts to the major families: the Mo Family, the Miao Family, and the Luos in the provincial city.
After a busy half-day of work, the fruit on the mountain was finally all harvested by three in the afternoon. After the trucks left, Li Shiyun led everyone to the village committee office to settle their wages.
anwhile, Ling Feng turned to look at Chen Yuhe and Li Fei’er. They had not shirked their labor today, so he asked with a smile, "You two have worked hard. What would you like to eat for dinner? I’ll cook it!"
"No thanks, I don’t even want to eat anything tomorrow!" Li Fei’er said, holding her stomach.
Chen Yuhe, appearing slightly embarrassed, shared a similar sentint, "I ate too many fruits; my stomach feels a bit swollen!"
Ling Feng was speechless. Fruit might be delicious, but one couldn’t just keep eating non-stop, right?
After the three of them descended the mountain, Chen Yuhe said, "I won’t stay over tonight; I’m going ho to check on things."
As she spoke, she looked intently at Ling Feng. "Do you want to walk
ho?"
"Ah?"
Ling Feng was a bit confused, but he quickly caught on and scratched his head, saying, "Okay, sure!"
No sooner had he spoken than Li Fei’er imdiately showed her displeasure with a huff, "Do you two think I’m an idiot? What’s all this walking ho business? You just want to spend a romantic evening together!"
"You little rascal!"
Chen Yuhe’s face flushed red as she made a feigned attempt to hit her!
Li Fei’er zipped away and called out from a distance, "Sister, don’t bully , or no matter where Uncle goes, I’ll follow him and ruin your plans!"
"You! Was everything I said last night just a waste of breath?" Chen Yuhe stomped her foot.
Curious, Ling Feng asked, "What did you guys talk about?"
"Nothing!" the two won chid in unison!
Ling Feng: "..."
Li Fei’er giggled, "Alright, I won’t tease you guys anymore. I’m going to find Qian Qian to play, and Uncle, make sure you co back early!"
After speaking, she turned and ran away lightly.
Ling Feng looked at Chen Yuhe and saw her eyes darting around as if she was thinking about sothing, so he asked, "You two don’t have so kind of conspiracy, do you?"
"How could that be! Better not to pry into the secrets between girls!"
Chen Yuhe gave him a glowering look, then pulled open the car door: "Are we going or not?"
"Let’s go. If I said I wasn’t going to take you, you’d probably kill , right?" Ling Feng laughed and got into the car.
While heading to the county town, he sent a ssage to Li Shiyun, telling her that he wouldn’t be coming ho that night.
Li Shiyun didn’t reply, probably busy distributing wages to the villagers. Ling Feng didn’t think much of it and put down his phone, looking at Chen Yuhe’s profile: "Where to first when we get back to the city?"
"To my house!"
"Hmm?"
Ling Feng was startled, as it was not what he had been expecting, so he quickly asked, "You really want
to take you ho?"
Chen Yuhe’s mouth curled up as she glanced at him: "What else did you think it was?"
"I..."
Ling Feng was at a loss for words. Seeing a sly sparkle in her eyes, he imdiately knew it wasn’t going to be simple and chuckled, "You’d better not be playing any tricks on !"
Chen Yuhe just laughed heh heh and said nothing.
As the car entered the county town, it wasn’t long before they arrived outside Chen Gang’s villa. After parking, she looked at Ling Feng and said, "Shall we go in?"
"What are you really up to?" Ling Feng asked with a puzzled face.
"Oh my, look how scared you are. It’s just that my parents want to et you!" Chen Yuhe rolled her eyes at him.
"..."
Ling Feng was still in the dark and couldn’t help but ask, "Didn’t they just et
yesterday? Why do they want to see
again? I’m not a beauty!"
"Go!"
Chen Yuhe glared at him: "Stop the nonsense and get out of the car!"
Ling Feng had no choice but to open the car door reluctantly.
Upon entering the villa and opening the door, a delicious aroma wafted from the kitchen. When they reached the living room, they saw Chen Gang and his wife bustling about in the kitchen.
Several dishes were already on the dining table, and Ling Feng looked bewilderedly at Chen Yuhe.
Instead of speaking, she just chuckled heh heh and turned to shout toward the kitchen: "Mom and Dad, we’re back!"
"Ling Feng’s here, co take a seat, the food will be ready in a mont!" Chen Gang poked his head out of the kitchen and said with a smile.
Seeing him wearing an apron, it seed he was cooking himself. Ling Feng nodded and sat on the sofa.
He didn’t need to ask now; he had a rough idea of what was going on.
Chen Gang and his wife had prepared a family banquet to entertain him, and it seed they might have sothing to discuss later on.
After being busy for a while, the dining table was filled with ho-cooked dishes.
At that mont, Chen Gang said with a beaming smile, "Ling Feng, co sit down, dinner’s ready!"
"Uncle and Auntie, this is too kind of you, making so many dishes!"
Ling Feng said with a smile as he approached the dining table and sat down next to Chen Yuhe.
"Not at all, we’re family now, so we wouldn’t be formal with you, and it’s just a simple ho-cooked al!" Chen Gang said with a laugh.
Hearing these words, Ling Feng turned his head to look at Chen Yuhe, only to find her acting as if nothing was amiss, innocently focused on picking dishes, completely leaving him out in the cold!
