The Road to Becoming a Son-in-Law

Chapter 339 What's going on?

Chapter 339 What's going on?

Before the four could react, Lin Shao immediately stood up, took several steps back, gave them a smug smile, and ran away.

Lin Junyuan was speechless. Ever since he had spent more time with Liu Yubai, that simpleton, his younger brother had become increasingly irritating.

Back then, his younger brother wasn't exactly well-behaved, nor was he like this now, constantly making him so angry he wanted to grind his teeth.

Liu Yubai looked puzzled. What was that look in Lin Junyuan's eyes? Did he want to fight her?

"It's all your fault for leading my brother astray," Lin Junyuan said resentfully.

Liu Yubai: "...Why did I bring it?"

Lin Junyuan: "I don't care, you're the one who brought them."

Liu Yubai: "...Whatever you say goes."

Since Xu Xuan, Murong Chen, Lin Shao, Lin Junyuan, Liu Yubai, Shangguan Ying, and Xu Yun'er were all taught by Chen Feng and practiced similar things, they practiced together every morning after they arrived.

The next morning, Chen Feng looked at the seven people practicing there early in the morning and nodded in satisfaction.

Although Xu Xuan and Murong Chen were not officially his students or apprentices, Chen Feng not only treated them as friends, but also almost as his apprentices. They got along very well with him, so Chen Feng taught them very seriously.

Upon seeing Chen Feng, the group temporarily stopped practicing and greeted him.

"You've all been doing very well lately," Chen Feng praised.

Chen Feng rarely praised people, and they had all forgotten how long it had been since he had praised them. Now, hearing his praise so abruptly, they felt a little embarrassed.

Seeing the embarrassed smiles on the faces of the group after their initial shock, Chen Feng reflected on himself. Had he been too serious in front of them? Thinking this, he asked the question aloud.

"No, no, no," Lin Shao quickly shook his head and said, "Teacher Chen, you're not serious at all."

Lin Shao was telling the truth. Chen Feng's temper was quite good, but when they thought about the times Chen Feng had occasionally lost his temper, even if it wasn't towards them, they were all well-behaved in front of him.

Chen Feng paused for a moment, realizing he had been too serious, and said, "I need to go out for a bit. You've all worked very hard these past few days, now you can take a break and relax."

The others nodded, and Xu Xuan asked curiously, "Where are you going?"

"I want to go to Guose Tianxiang."

Xu Xuan and the others were unaware that the "National Beauty and Heavenly Fragrance" brand was also owned by Chen Feng. They assumed that Chen Feng was going to buy something for He Fei, and with a knowing smile, said, "Then you should go quickly."

Chen Feng knew that Xu Xuan was overthinking things, so he didn't explain anything. Even if he did explain, Xu Xuan would still tease him as usual.

Knowing that Chen Feng was coming to see her, Hua Wushang didn't go out today and waited for Chen Feng at the Guose Tianxiang Hotel.

After Chen Feng knocked on the door, Hua Wushang's voice came through: "Oh, it's been a long time since you've visited my place."

Hua Wushang's alluring face was full of surprise and curiosity. She knew that Chen Feng had been busy with the affairs of the Crescent Moon Pavilion recently and had not visited the National Beauty and Fragrance Pavilion for a long time.

Yesterday, when she heard from her servants that Chen Feng had come looking for her, Hua Wushang was surprised for a long time.

"I've been quite busy lately." Chen Feng and Hua Wushang were quite familiar with each other. After sitting down on the stool, Chen Feng smiled and said, "And I've been busy spending time with Fei'er."

Hua Wushang rolled her eyes and said, "No wonder Xiao Fei'er hasn't come to me to work on new products for so long. It turns out she's been bothered by you."

“How can you call it entanglement?” Chen Feng said. “Fei’er was willing too.”

"Hmph." Hua Wushang sneered, "Then I'll tell Xiao Fei'er what you said. I wonder how Xiao Fei'er will respond then?"

Chen Feng's expression froze. He touched his nose. He knew He Fei was easily embarrassed, and he would definitely be the one to suffer in the end.

Chen Feng simply skipped the topic and said directly, "Let's not talk about this for now. I came to see you today because I have something else I want to talk to you about."

Hua Wushang noticed Chen Feng's embarrassment and chuckled to herself, "So you've finally met your match."

Chen Feng: "...Let's not talk about this."

Hua Wushang, unusually kind, said, "Tell me, what did you want to see me about yesterday?"

Seeing that Hua Wushang was no longer dwelling on the previous topic, Chen Feng breathed a sigh of relief, straightened his expression, and asked, "When do you plan to leave Luoyang?"

"Hmm?" Hua Wushang blinked and said, "Why are you bringing this up? Are you leaving Luoyang?"

"Hmm." Hua Wushang and Wu Fen came to Luoyang with me, so I naturally need to discuss it with them before leaving. "I plan to leave Luoyang after I've settled things with the shops in a few days."

"Hey, what's wrong? Why are you suddenly leaving Luoyang?" Hua Wushang said. "Could it be that you were abandoned by Xiao Fei'er, so you want to leave Luoyang, this place of heartbreak?"

"..." Chen Feng's smile almost disappeared. Couldn't Hua Wushang hope for something good for him?

Chen Feng took a deep breath and said, "No." Even though he hadn't even confessed his feelings yet.

"Alright." Hua Wushang asked, "Then why did you suddenly bring up leaving Luoyang? Did something happen?"

Hua Wushang straightened her expression and said, "Tell me, and I'll see if I can help."

"It's not that I've run into trouble," Chen Feng said, "it's because of what happened at the martial arts academy I used to attend."

"My former students were bullied, and the person who bullied them is no ordinary person. I only found out about this by chance when I ran into them a few days ago, so I need to return to the Martial Arts Academy ahead of schedule." Because explaining the details would be too troublesome, Chen Feng only gave Hua Wushang a general account of what happened.

"I see," Hua Wushang said. "Have you decided on a time to leave Luoyang?"

"It's not decided yet," Chen Feng said. "I came to see you today to ask about your and Wu Fen's plans. You came with me, so do you want to come with me now?"

"You don't have to go back. You can stay in Luoyang and help me look after the shop."

Hua Wushang glanced at the table. She didn't care whether she stayed in Luoyang or not; the main concern was Wu Fen. She didn't know what Wu Fen was planning. "I don't know. I need to ask Wu Fen for his opinion."

"Of course." Chen Feng nodded, then asked, "Where did Wu Fen go?"

“He encountered some issues and went to deal with them. I wasn’t there yesterday because I was helping him out.”

Chen Feng asked with concern, "Do you need any help?"

“No need for that,” Hua Wushang said. “It’s just a small matter; he can handle it himself.”

"Yes, please let me know if you need any help."

"it is good."

Hua Wushang seemed to remember something and asked, "If you are leaving Luoyang, does Xiao Fei'er know about this? Will she leave with you?"

"I've already spoken to Fei'er."

Chen Feng sighed and said quietly, "However, Fei'er doesn't plan to leave with me."
