263: An unexpected encounter with Zhang Yuhao

"Haotian knew you were coming and insisted on coming downstairs to meet you. We couldn't stop him, and we were worried about him coming down alone, so I accompanied him down."

As Chen Yuqing spoke, she walked side-by-side with Lin Zifeng toward the staircase.

Lin Zifeng was holding Chen Haotian with one arm, and his other hand accidentally brushed against the back of Chen Yuqing's hand. He naturally took hold of Chen Yuqing's hand.

Chen Yuqing did not pull her hand away; she turned her head slightly and looked affectionately at the father and son. Feeling the harmony of the family of three, Chen Yuqing felt wonderful inside.

It wasn't until they reached the door that the two tacitly let go of each other's hands.

Chen Yuqing reached out and opened the door. The two walked in one after the other, and Mr. and Mrs. Chen Yuanhua and Chen Yuxi quickly stood up to greet them.

"Zifeng is here? Come over and sit." Li Jing quickly greeted Lin Zifeng.

"Happy New Year, Mom and Dad." Lin Zifeng put Chen Haotian on the ground and went straight to Chen Yuxi's side. "Yuxi, how are you feeling now?"

"Aside from feeling a bit inconvenienced in my movements, everything else is normal. And I feel like my appetite is getting bigger and bigger; I'm eating more than twice as much as before."

Chen Yuxi was helped by him to sit at the dining table, and she said while gently stroking her belly.

"That's because there are two of you now. Isn't it perfectly normal to be able to eat? Only in this way will you and the child be healthier." Lin Zifeng said with a smile.

"Zifeng is right. A healthy diet will make you and the child healthier, and you also need proper physical exercise. If you can have a natural birth, that would be for the best. That way, your body will recover faster, and the child will be stronger." Li Jing said patiently while serving soup to Chen Yuxi.

Chen Yuanhua opened a bottle of White Liquor, preparing to have a few drinks with Lin Zifeng.

Lin Zifeng took the bottle, poured a glass for Chen Yuanhua first, and then poured one for himself. At this moment, Chen Haotian said in a milky voice: "I want to drink too, I want to drink too. I want to toast with Grandpa and Maternal Aunts Husband."

Everyone was amused by Chen Haotian. Chen Yuqing took a cup of milk, and while pouring it for Chen Haotian, she said: "Alright, alright, you can also toast with Grandpa and Maternal Aunts Husband."

The group finished their lunch happily, and Mr. and Mrs. Chen Yuanhua stayed to drink tea with them for over an hour before leaving.

Chen Haotian pestered Lin Zifeng to accompany him for a nap. Chen Yuxi smiled and said: "Zifeng, you've been driving all morning, you must be tired, right? Just go take a nap with Haotian!"

Lin Zifeng nodded with a smile, took Chen Haotian's hand, and walked toward the Bedroom.

Soon, Lin Zifeng fell asleep while hugging Chen Haotian. The two sisters came to the door of the Bedroom, and seeing the father and son sleeping on the bed, they looked at each other and smiled.

Chen Yuqing lifted her chin slightly, and Chen Yuxi understood. Chen Yuqing gently closed the door, and The two sisters walked toward the Bedroom next door.

The two women arrived at the Bedroom next door and lay down on the bed together.

"Sister, seeing the way Zifeng and Haotian are together, sometimes I think, if we let the father and son recognize each other, it would be something worth looking forward to."

"Yuxi, don't you care at all?" Chen Yuqing asked tentatively.

"Sister, there are some things that we sisters both know clearly, what are you still worried about? Tonight, I will sleep early as before; my body is not convenient right now." Chen Yuxi said with hidden meaning.

Hearing what Chen Yuxi said, the clever Chen Yuqing naturally understood the meaning behind her words, so she was overjoyed. She reached out and held Chen Yuxi's hand, everything understood without words.

"Sister, from now on we can be together forever. I'll be in the light, and you'll be in the dark." Chen Yuxi said again.

Chen Yuqing nodded vigorously and said nothing more.

Lin Zifeng stayed in the provincial capital for three consecutive days. He didn't go anywhere and stayed at home the whole time accompanying Chen Haotian, not even going downstairs.

On the afternoon of this day, the three of them were chatting in the Living Room, while Chen Haotian was playing with toys on the side.

Chen Yuqing looked at the two and said: "Zifeng, Yuxi, tonight I have to entertain some old clients from the company. I'll leave Haotian to you two."

"Sister, just leaving Haotian to me is enough. Let Zifeng accompany you to the social event tonight!" Chen Yuxi said with a smile.

Hearing what Chen Yuxi said, Chen Yuqing did not refuse, but looked at Lin Zifeng with an expectant expression.

"Is it appropriate for me to attend the banquet?" Lin Zifeng said with some hesitation.

"What's inappropriate about it, Zifeng? Just go with sister, and come back together; sister's safety will also be guaranteed." Chen Yuxi persuaded again.

Hearing Chen Yuxi's persuasion and seeing Chen Yuqing's expectant expression, Lin Zifeng had no choice but to nod and agree.

Lin Zifeng prepared dinner in advance, leaving Chen Yuxi and Chen Haotian to eat together, before he and Chen Yuqing walked out of the house.

Chen Yuqing's driver had already arrived downstairs. After the two got into the car, the driver drove away.

More than ten minutes later, the driver drove the car to the front of the pre-booked hotel, and the two got out of the car together.

The people Chen Yuqing invited were all long-term clients, and they were all of high character, so the banquet went very smoothly.

Lin Zifeng handled this kind of occasion like a fish in water. More than two hours later, the two said goodbye to the guests in the lobby. Chen Yuqing went to the bar to pay the bill, and Lin Zifeng waited on the side, ready to leave once Chen Yuqing finished paying.

Just at this moment, a figure not unfamiliar to both of them walked in from outside.

Lin Zifeng and the other person saw each other almost at the same time. Lin Zifeng was slightly stunned; he didn't expect it to be such a coincidence, to encounter Zhang Yuhao here after such a long time.

After Zhang Yuhao saw Lin Zifeng, his footsteps paused slightly, and then he continued to walk toward him.

Lin Zifeng also put on a smile, walked forward a few steps, and reached out to shake Zhang Yuhao's hand.

"Happy New Year, Old Leader. I really didn't expect to see you here."

"Yes, Zifeng, it really is quite a coincidence. I also didn't expect to see you here. You look even more mature and steady. As they say, 'It is better to meet by chance than to set a date.' A friend invited me here to eat, why don't we join them?"

Lin Zifeng knew that the other party was just being polite. If the other party really wanted to invite him to dinner, he wouldn't want to bring him to attend someone else's banquet; he would have set another time, or directly declined the other party's dinner invitation and asked him to eat elsewhere. So he said with a smile: "Old Leader, let's forget it! Let's meet again when we have the chance! I just finished eating here and have some other things to do, so I'm about to leave."

Just at this moment, Chen Yuqing's voice sounded from the side, "Zifeng, did you meet an acquaintance?"

Zhang Yuhao heard a somewhat familiar voice. He looked toward the sound and saw Chen Yuqing walking over. Both of them were stunned at the same time.

Neither of them expected to meet each other here, because this was the first time they had encountered each other since their divorce.
