417: You two are such good friends!
Under Li Yanran's intentional efforts, the atmosphere at the dinner table was very good. Although The two sisters, Chen Yuqing and Chen Yuxi, knew Li Yanran's intentions, they did not reject the olive branch she extended.
Neither of them wanted to make things difficult for Lin Zifeng, so the relationship between the three women grew closer with every glass of red wine.
By the end, the three women had stopped addressing each other by their titles. Li Yanran changed to calling the two women Sister Yuqing and Sister Yuxi.
The two sisters, in turn, called Li Yanran 'Sister Yanran.'
Seeing the relationship between the three women becoming more and more harmonious, Zifeng felt happy, but he also couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart.
After Lunch, the three women walked ahead chatting and laughing, while Lin Zifeng and Wang Meijia followed behind them, completely relegated to supporting roles like Wang Meijia.
The three women agreed at the door to find time to go shopping, eat, and get beauty treatments together before saying their goodbyes.
Only then did Li Yanran seem to notice Lin Zifeng standing to the side again. She waved at him and said with a smile, "Goodbye, Secretary Lin."
From an angle where The two sisters couldn't see, she winked her beautiful big eyes at him triumphantly before turning to leave with Wang Meijia.
Lin Zifeng got into the car with The two sisters, drove out of the parking lot, and headed towards home.
"Yuxi, Yuqing, it's like you and Chairman Li are meeting for the first time but wish you'd met sooner! I didn't expect you to start calling each other sisters so quickly.
People say the dinner table is the best place for men to get closer; it seems that saying applies to you women as well!"
Lin Zifeng said happily while driving.
"Isn't this what you wanted to see? Sister and I are just following your wishes, aren't we?"
Chen Yuxi said pointedly. Hearing her words, Lin Zifeng's hand shook slightly.
The car body swayed slightly before returning to normal, but The two sisters felt it.
Chen Yuqing pulled her younger sister and quickly said, "Zifeng, Yuxi means that if we can get closer to each other, won't future cooperation be smoother? It will also give the government more peace of mind. Let's stop talking about this, Zifeng. Do you have any plans for the next few days of the holiday?"
Hearing Chen Yuqing change the subject, Lin Zifeng also returned to normal and said with a smile, "There are too many tourists at the Eagle Gorge Mouth Scenic Area, so let's not join the crowd."
I went to an Ecological Breeding and Fishing Park with Yuxi last time. That place is nice. How about we take the children there tomorrow?"
"Zifeng, when did you start being interested in fishing?"
Chen Yuqing asked curiously.
"I was the one who suggested Zifeng go fishing. It's a good way to relax, but last time was Zifeng's first time fishing."
He fished for the whole morning and, not surprisingly, ended up with nothing.
But it doesn't matter even if he doesn't catch any fish. There's a Fresh Fish Restaurant that provides meals, and you can eat fresh stewed fish."
Before Lin Zifeng could answer, Chen Yuxi spoke first.
"Oh, is it that challenging? Then I want to give it a try too. However, it's a static activity; the children might find it boring."
Chen Yuqing said with interest after hearing Chen Yuxi's words.
Hearing the sisters' conversation, Lin Zifeng's heart stirred, and he said with a smile, "How about this? What if we send the children to my parents' place for a day?"
Hearing Lin Zifeng's suggestion, the sisters looked at each other, and Chen Yuqing spoke first, "Zifeng, what are you thinking?
Outsiders might not be able to tell, but after your parents see Haotian, how could they not see that Haotian is your son?"
"That's right, Zifeng. Do you want to announce Haotian's existence to your parents?"
Chen Yuxi said with some confusion.
"I was thinking that my parents will have to know about this sooner or later. It's better for us to tell them proactively than to wait for them to find out themselves!"
Lin Zifeng said thoughtfully.
Hearing Lin Zifeng's words, Chen Yuqing deliberated for a moment before saying, "Zifeng, although I also really want your parents to know about Haotian's existence—after all, Haotian is their biological grandson—"
I still feel that now is not the time. Too many people in Yushu City know your family, and I don't know how many people are watching you!
The more people who know about this, the higher the risk of exposure. For the sake of your future, let's wait until our son is a bit older before talking about this!
After all, adults can control their mouths, but they can't control a child's mouth."
"I also agree with Sister's opinion. I know you want to make your parents happy, and you also want Haotian to know that you are his father.
But now is really not the time. You have to be rational."
Chen Yuxi advised earnestly.
Hearing what the two women said, Lin Zifeng extinguished the idea in his heart and nodded, saying, "I'll listen to you. I was a bit irrational."
Hearing Lin Zifeng's answer, both women smiled. Chen Yuqing said with a smile, "I think we should do this: for the next few days of the holiday, let's just stay at home together!
Staying at home to properly accompany the children is also a good choice."
Chen Yuxi nodded in agreement and said, "That works too. There are many tourists during the holiday, so we don't need to join the crowd. If we want to go out and play, we can go anytime."
"Alright, I'll listen to you both. I'll stay at home with you and the children."
Lin Zifeng said cheerfully.
The three of them talked all the way. Lin Zifeng drove the car into the Residential Community. After getting out, they walked upstairs together.
When they reached the second floor, Chen Yuqing stopped and looked at the two of them, saying, "Zifeng, Yuxi, you two go upstairs first!
I'll bring the children upstairs in a little while."
The two of them agreed and continued walking upstairs.
They returned home, and in less than ten minutes, Chen Yuqing arrived on the third floor with Chen Haotian and Lin Yining.
The two children were taken to the room by Chen Yuqing for a nap. Ten minutes later, Chen Yuqing walked out of the room.
"Sister, are Haotian and Ningning both asleep?"
Chen Yuxi patted the sofa next to her, signaling Chen Yuqing to sit beside her, and asked.
Chen Yuqing sat down next to Chen Yuxi and nodded, saying, "Haotian and Ningning have both developed the habit of napping. When the time comes, they get sleepy and fall asleep quickly."
Just as Chen Yuqing finished speaking, Lin Zifeng's phone rang.
Seeing that it was a call from Zhang Chunhua, Lin Zifeng answered it casually and called out, "Mom." Zhang Chunhua's voice sounded through the receiver.
"Son, did you and Yuxi go out to play?"
"No, Mom. There are too many people outside. We want to have a good rest at home."
"Then how about this, son? Why don't you and Yuxi bring Ningning back for dinner tonight?
Xiao Yuan went back to Xiangyang Town for the holiday. It's just Your Father and me at home, which is quite boring. Come back tonight, and Mom will cook something delicious for you."
Hearing Zhang Chunhua's words, how could Lin Zifeng refuse? He agreed without a second thought.
Hanging up the phone, Lin Zifeng looked at the sisters and said, "My mom wants us to go back for dinner tonight. Xiao Yuan went back to Xiangyang Town to accompany her grandmother, so only my parents are left at home. I couldn't refuse!"
"You and Yuxi take Ningning. My son and I will stay at home and wait for you to come back."
Chen Yuqing said very considerately.
