Chapter 73 Welcome to Our House

As for Li Fenglan, she glanced half-heartedly through Chu Feng’s so-called presents and waved her hands impatiently. “Just put them at the side. I’ll feed them to the stray dogs and cats around the residential area later.”

As a member of the prominent Yun Family, Li Fenglan was used to the glamorous lifestyles of wealthy women with status. She could see that the plainly wrapped fruits and wines from Chu Feng were obviously cheap stuff, incomparable to her expensive imported organic food. He calls those presents?

How dare he even bring those to our house? Presents are expensive branded goods imported from the US and Europe which cost over 10,000, similar to those brought by Li Ziyang whenever he visits. She shook her head in disappointment and sighed. A poor dude like him is nothing compared to a wealthy gentleman like Li Ziyang.

“Mum, aren’t you going a bit too far?”

Yun Muqing’s petite face twisted with anger. She defended Chu Feng firmly, “What do you mean by ‘feeding them to stray dogs’? Chu Feng put a lot of effort into the preparation of these presents and also carried them all the way here to you in person. You should be grateful for his effort instead of just worrying about how much they are worth.”

Li Fenglan simply lowered her head and flipped through her magazine. With her eyes on the magazine, she smirked. “Be grateful for his effort? You know the dimwit named Zheng who likes to collect garbage downstairs? Well, he too, put a lot of effort into collecting garbage and piling them up in front of other people’s doorsteps. Shall I be grateful for his effort too?”

Yun Muqing turned her head away in annoyance. “You’re being unreasonable.”

Yun Jiaming threw a resentful glare at Li Fenglan. With a broad smile on his face, he tried to lighten up the atmosphere. “Alright, Muqing. Your mother got up on the wrong side of the bed and was feeling a bit grumpy lately. Don’t mind what she said just now, okay?”

“Feng, I hope you don’t mind the things that Mrs. Yun said just now. Not just you, even I get quite a lot of sharp remarks from her sometimes.”

Following Yun Jiaming’s humorous remarks, the tension was finally relieved and everyone in the room felt at ease again. Indeed, for a person who served on board of a large business corporation, Yun Jiaming possessed excellent social and problem solving skills.

As for Chu Feng, a person who had survived countless deaths and had been through highs and lows in his life, simply did not care about such trivial matters.

Chu Feng smiled calmly and said, “I’m fine, Mr. Yun. Let’s sit down and have some tea.”

Yun Jiaming was amazed by Chu Feng’s composure and tolerance. He thought Chu Feng would achieve greatness in his life with such qualities. Li Fenglan, on the other hand, looked at Chu Feng disdainfully. She thought Chu Feng was unreliable and useless due to his mild personality.

Yun Jiaming had a great time chatting with Chu Feng. Yun Muqing’s eyes filled with tears of happiness when she heard Yun Jiaming’s laughter. She seldom seen her father looking so happy since the car accident.

“Feng, I heard from Muqing that you serve in the army?” Yun Jiaming asked randomly.

Li Fenglan held her breath and listened closely when she heard Yun Jiaming’s question. I wonder if he does well or has any power in the army. Like the youngest son in the Yun Family, even though he’s strapped, no one—not even the authorities and the Yun Family—will dare to look down on him because of the military power he has.

Recalling his days in the army, Chu Feng nodded. “Yes, I was in the army for ten years. I just retired this year.”

Li Fenglan frowned. Ten years in the army? Just retired now? Does that mean he is jobless without any achievements? Li Fenglan lost her patience.

Her face was full of disappointment and frustration. Unlike Li Ziyang, she realized that Chu Feng was a completely useless youth without money, power, family background and career. A guy like him could never marry her daughter!
