72: Communication between the two sisters

Hearing the flower-selling girl's words, Chen Yuxi showed a shy smile. Just as she was about to explain, Lin Zifeng spoke first.

"The little girl has a silver tongue; give me one!"

Chen Yuxi swallowed the words she wanted to explain. After Lin Zifeng paid, he turned around and handed the flower to Chen Yuqing.

"Although what happened back then was a result of coincidence, it caused you great harm.

No matter what I do, I cannot make up for the harm I caused you.

But I still want to say one thing from my heart: I truly did not mean to hurt you."

Chen Yuqing hesitated for a moment before reaching out to take the rose from his hand, whispering, "I know that what happened back then was not your fault."

Ever since that incident, Chen Yuxi had acted as if she didn't care in front of Chen Yuqing, because she was afraid of affecting her sister's mood.

How could a girl in her twenties who had never been in a relationship not care about her first man?

Especially when Lin Zifeng was so sunny and handsome, completely matching her aesthetic preferences?

Therefore, her heart was never as calm as she appeared on the surface.

Ever since that incident, Lin Zifeng's handsome figure would occasionally drift through her mind, but she had been suppressing her feelings.

She didn't know how she would face her family if something were to happen between her and Lin Zifeng.

Although her sister was a firm proponent of non-marriage, she already knew that her sister was pregnant.

While she was lost in thought, the two had already walked to a less crowded area.

Lin Zifeng spoke again: "Thank you for your understanding, Yuxi. To tell you the truth, if it weren't for the huge gap between our families, I would have wanted to pursue you and make you my girlfriend."

Facing Lin Zifeng's burning gaze, Chen Yuxi lowered her head in a panic.

"What does love have to do with family background? Whether two people can be together depends on the people themselves; mixing in other factors ruins it."

Lin Zifeng was overjoyed. "Yuxi, what do you mean?"

"I didn't mean anything else, just speaking objectively. It's getting late, I need to go home, goodbye!"

Watching her graceful figure turn and leave, he hesitated for a moment before chasing after her.

"Why are you following me?"

"I'm taking you home! Besides, we don't have each other's contact information yet! Tell me your phone number!"

Lin Zifeng followed closely beside Chen Yuxi.

Chen Yuxi whispered a string of numbers before saying, "You don't need to take me home. My house is less than a kilometer away from here. If my sister sees you, she will misunderstand us."

"Alright, I hope I can see you again while I'm in the provincial capital."

Lin Zifeng did not insist further. Seeing her nod slightly, he stopped, took out his phone, and saved her number.

He stood there, watching her leave.

Seeing Chen Yuxi walk a few dozen meters away and look back to see him still standing there watching her, like a startled rabbit, she turned and left quickly. A handsome smile curled at the corners of his mouth.

Hearing what Chen Yuxi had just said, he felt that he and she were not so far apart after all.

"Anything is possible; I must continue to work hard!

So what if she is the daughter of the Executive Vice Governor? I'm only twenty-four; I have plenty of time. As long as I am willing to work hard, I can climb to the top in the future.

They say it's hard for children from humble families to succeed, but I refuse to believe that."

After muttering these words to himself, he moved his feet and walked towards the hotel.

Chen Yuxi returned home, greeted her parents sitting in the Living Room, and headed upstairs.

She knocked on Chen Yuqing's door and pushed it open.

Seeing Chen Yuxi walk in, Chen Yuqing put down the magazine in her hand, looked up, and said with a smile, "Yuxi, you're back?

Didn't you go to the square for a walk? Why are you back so soon?"

"I didn't find it interesting, so I came back."

As Chen Yuxi spoke, she sat down beside her sister, took her hand, and said again, "Sister, you have been pregnant for more than two months. Although it can't be seen yet, this matter cannot be kept under wraps forever.

When you reach five months, even if you want to hide it, you won't be able to. What do you plan to do?"

"I have already planned this matter. Within two months, I will arrange all the work at the company. I am currently in contact with a professional manager.

At that time, I will go abroad to Australia for a year in the name of further studies. After the baby is born smoothly, I will return to the country.

By then, the baby will be six or seven months old. Hiring a Nanny will solve all the problems."

Facing her sister, she revealed her plan without concealment.

"Sister, why do you have to go through so much trouble? We both know that what happened back then was not your fault or mine, and it was even less Lin Zifeng's fault. It was all that bastard Zhang Yuhao's fault.

I think Lin Zifeng looks good and is a good person. Why don't you try to get in touch with him? If you are compatible, you can just marry him, and wouldn't all the problems be solved?

That way, the baby will have a father, and your life will be complete. Isn't that a win-win situation?"

Chen Yuxi said this out of genuine concern for her sister, but there was also a hint of probing.

Chen Yuqing shook her head. "I admit he is very outstanding among his peers.

You know what, Yuxi? I saw him today! He was with his colleagues at the entrance of the Meigaole Hotel handing out brochures, promoting Heping Town where he currently works!

I specifically asked about it when I got back; he is already the Secretary of that Heping Town.

He is only twenty-four years old. Without a strong background, it is very rare to reach such a position at this age.

This is enough to show how outstanding he is."

"Sister, you saw him? What did he say to you?"

"I was in the car, I saw him, but he didn't see me, so there was no communication at all."

"Oh, since you know he is excellent, why don't you agree with my proposal? Are you concerned about his background?" Chen Yuxi asked, puzzled.

"How could I be concerned about his background? Didn't I tell you long ago? I am a firm non-marriage advocate.

So, although I am attracted to him, I will not marry again in the future.

Now that I have the baby in my belly, I have the ability to raise him/her alone and raise him/her to be an adult.

There are many single-parent families now, and many such children are very outstanding." She said with a smile, while gently stroking her lower abdomen.

Hearing her answer, Chen Yuxi felt a flash of inexplicable joy and couldn't help but say again, "Sister, if he marries another girl in the future, won't you feel sad?"
