To avoid possible trouble, Chen Feng went straight to her house with her.
When they arrived at her house, it was just after four o'clock. It was definitely too early for dinner, but her parents, notified by Jin Xinyan, had been waiting for a while. Both husband and wife were waiting at their front door.
"Chen Feng, you finally made it."
Jin Yongnian greeted Chen Feng with an enthusiastic hug, which caught Chen Feng off guard. Fortunately, it only lasted a few seconds before releasing him.
"Come in and have a seat." Mrs. Jin welcomed him with a warm smile.
The three members of the Jin family ushered Chen Feng into the house like a cherished guest.
Chen Feng noticed that the coffee table was already filled with various fruits and snacks, clearly prepared just for him. The Jin family had truly put thought into it.
"Honey, bring out my treasured pre-rain Longjing tea. Chen Feng and I will have a few good cups."
Jin Yongnian called out enthusiastically.
Mrs. Jin promptly agreed and went to the kitchen to prepare.
"Chen Feng, let me make my position clear here: I support you and Xinyan wholeheartedly, and so does your Aunt. Even if you decide to get engaged today, we are all for it. Of course, this is mainly up to the two of you. Whenever you plan to get engaged, just let us know. We'll help arrange everything. Our opinion is that you should try to get engaged within this year and married next year. In the future, if you have children, we'll take care of them for you and certainly raise them well."
Jin Yongnian suddenly stated his position. Jin Xinyan wasn't surprised, just blushing slightly as she smiled at Chen Feng. Even though she knew getting engaged to Chen Feng would be difficult, she was certainly full of anticipation.
Chen Feng was starting to regret saving Jin Yongnian.
He had anticipated this sort of thing earlier and said, "I think it's too early to talk about marriage now. After all, Xinyan just graduated from college."
Jin Yongnian was slightly taken aback and said, "Xinyan's age isn't big, but you're already thirty, aren't you? You're not young anymore. You should decide on such a life matter sooner and have children early. Otherwise, when you're old, your children won't even be adults."
"Let's talk about this later. I don't plan to get married again in the next couple of years."
Jin Yongnian was naturally a bit dissatisfied with Chen Feng's attitude, but he remembered Chen Feng's life-saving grace and could only endure it. Instead, he patiently tried to persuade him: "I know you divorced last year, but precisely because of that, you should remarry sooner to live a good life, making your ex-wife regret it. Honestly, she really lacked judgment to leave such an outstanding man like you. I don't believe such a short-sighted woman could find someone better than you."
"Thanks for the compliment."
At this moment, Mrs. Jin also came over with a tea tray and poured a cup of pre-rain Longjing tea for everyone.
Chen Feng didn't really understand tea ceremonies, so he just followed Jin Yongnian's lead in drinking tea.
"How is it? My treasured pre-rain Longjing is pretty good, right? I've been saving it for years, usually reluctant to drink it."
Chen Feng took a few sips and couldn't really tell much, just found it quite smooth. He smiled and nodded, saying, "It's very good."
"Haha, you know your tea. Come on, do you play chess? Let's enjoy tea and chess together; it's one of life's great pleasures."
Saying this, Jin Yongnian took out a chess set from the drawer under the coffee table and placed it on the sofa.
Of course, Chen Feng knew how to play chess, but he wasn't particularly good at it.
But since he was free, he decided to play a few rounds with him.
As soon as the game started, they realized they were evenly matched. They became opponents on the chess board, fiercely competing back and forth.
After three games, nearly an hour passed, and Chen Feng luckily won two rounds. On the chessboard, he didn't have the habit of going easy on a "future father-in-law."
Just when Mrs. Jin and Jin Xinyan had prepared a table full of dishes and called them to eat.
Chen Feng immediately ended the chess battle, and Jin Yongnian had no choice but to go eat with him.
After dinner, Jin Yongnian still wanted to play chess, but Chen Feng firmly refused, and Jin Xinyan also strongly opposed, pulling Chen Feng up to her room.
It was Chen Feng's first time in her boudoir, and he couldn't help but look around with interest. Jin Xinyan happily introduced everything to him. Chen Feng even looked through her photo albums as she provided explanations, and he listened with great interest. In this way, he truly got to know Jin Xinyan and her family's situation, even recognizing a few relatives in the photos.
They stayed in her room until after nine o'clock when Chen Feng received Wu Mengting's message and took his leave.
Wu Mengting asked if he would return home tonight, and Chen Feng, of course, said he would return. He had the face for it, but wasn't bold enough to stay at the Jin family overnight and share a room with Jin Xinyan.
When they went downstairs, Jin Yongnian and his wife hadn't returned to their room and were waiting in the living room.
When Chen Feng said he was leaving, Jin Yongnian and his wife warmly invited him to stay over. And they were genuinely hoping he would stay; they didn't even suggest he sleep in a separate room, implying they were encouraging or even permitting him to share a room with Jin Xinyan.
They were truly treating him like a son-in-law.
This made Chen Feng feel a certain pressure.
He had already become a prospective son-in-law to several families, and as time passed, it was clearly impossible to get through things simply.
But Chen Feng now felt as if he had too many debts to worry about. He believed when the time came, everything would naturally fall into place. He could worry about a solution once he couldn't delay any longer.
He's just that optimistic!
Of course, Chen Feng ultimately left, feeling a bit uneasy about the Jin family's enthusiasm, thinking it best to visit less in the future.
Back at Red Villa Bay, the two women were still watching TV in the living room.
"You're back? Have you eaten dinner?" Wu Mengting asked him calmly.
"I have eaten. Are you two not going to sleep? It's almost ten o'clock."
"We were waiting for you. Now that you're back, we'll go to sleep."
Saying this, Wu Mengting stood up, turned off the TV, and headed upstairs.
Watching Wu Mengting leave abruptly, Chen Feng quietly asked Sun Xiaorui, "What's up with her?"
Sun Xiaorui whispered, "Perhaps you didn't tell her where you went before leaving? She might be feeling a bit upset. She complained to me a little earlier."
Chen Feng said helplessly, "She didn't ask me when I left."
Sun Xiaorui just smiled without saying anything.
Chen Feng shook his head and said, "She seems to be getting more and more jealous; this is not good."
