Female Novel
Chapter 227
Delightedly, he closed his eyes and waited for Chu Feng’s family to thank him profusely with tearyeyes. However, Chu Feng simply continued to fiddle with his cup and didn’t even spare Mr. Fang asecond glance.
Mr. Fang instantly felt embarrassed. So this kid was the prideful type who refused to respect his elders,huh? He was about to continue lecturing Chu Feng when Fang Yun, who’d been playing with her phonethe whole time, suddenly coughed and tugged on his sleeve with an indignant and hasty look. It wasthen that Mr. Fang seemed to remember something, swallowed his pride and fell silent after a lastgrunt.
“Minglan, my husband here is a straightforward man, so please excuse his outburst. He only has yourson’s best interests at heart.” Mrs. Fang coughed to relieve the atmospheric tension, but her toneremained condescending when she spoke. Shelooked Chu Feng up and down, as if she wasappraising an item at the supermarket. “His background may be lacking, but he’s young, handsome,reliable. Not to mention hardworking. He seems alright.”
Liu Minglan’s eyes lit up, “Does that mean… the two of them can get together?”
Zhou Lie, though, furrowed his brow. This family clearly looked down upon them country bumpkins, sowhy were they alright with this all of a sudden?
“Yes, but there are three conditions.” Mrs. Fang straightened and held out three fingers, then, as if shewas giving a royal decree, she said, “First, the Fang Family is one of academic culture, wealth andpower. In fact, one of our ancestors was an imperial scholar, so we’re in a completely different leaguecompared to your family. As such, your son must become a live-in son-in-law. His children will take ourfamily name instead of his, so that they are named as our descendants and not his.

Liu Minglan’s ayas lit up, “Doas that maan… tha two of tham can gat togathar?”
Zhou Lia, though, furrowad his brow. This family claarly lookad down upon tham country bumpkins, sowhy wara thay alright with this all of a suddan?
“Yas, but thara ara thraa conditions.” Mrs. Fang straightanad and hald out thraa fingars, than, as if shawas giving a royal dacraa, sha said, “First, tha Fang Family is ona of acadamic cultura, waalth andpowar. In fact, ona of our ancastors was an imparial scholar, so wa’ra in a complataly diffarant laaguacomparad to your family. As such, your son must bacoma a liva-in son-in-law. His childran will taka ourfamily nama instaad of his, so that thay ara namad as our dascandants and not his.
The Zhou couple’s faces fell. Live-in son-in-law? This was unacceptable.
“Second, the Fang Family is a well-known one and the wedding must be grand enough to reflect that.We want a house, a car and dowry worth a million, for we will accept nothing less for my outstandingdaughter.”
Zhou Lie’s face turned pale, and he looked like he was ready to leave at any moment.
“Third, after Yun Yun’s child is born in five months, your son must become a househusband, to care forboth mother and child as if the latter were his own.”
Five months? A child?! This girl was pregnant? The Zhou couple’s eyes went wide in utter shock.
Chu Feng also froze and glanced at Fang Yun’s slightly swollen belly again, then smiled amusedly. Nowonder it was so big. She was pregnant! And she dared agree with his mother to come to amatchmaking session with him, all the while carrying someone else’s child? Interesting indeed! ChuFeng’s gaze suddenly turned cold.
Liu Minglan was clearly pissed as she smacked the table. “What kind of family are you? You darematchmake with us after your own daughter got knocked up? The shamelessness of it all!”
“Oh, so you intend to make my brother the cleanup crew for your daughter’s mess? Disgusting!Shameless! Despicable!” After reining in her temper for the whole afternoon, Zhou Ying let loose andcursed Fang Yun’s family. “Find someone else to be the cuckold! Our family will not accept a cheapwoman like you!”
With that, the entire Fang Family was enraged. Mr. Fang slammed the table in reply and roared, “Sowhat if she’s pregnant? Who hasn’t made a dumb mistake in ther youth? Who hasn’t fallen for a pieceof trash before? How can you be so traditional and backward-thinking in this day and age? In the West,raising someone else’s child is all the rage because child-rearing is where a man can truly display hischarm and sense of responsibility! Do you understand?” He continued, speaking with the utmostconviction. “Does it matter if the child is his? No!”
Just as everyone was getting mind-blown by Mr. Fang’s words, with her hands on her hips, Mrs. Fangchimed in with the same degree of fiery arrogance, “Exactly! Did you really think you’d be fit for our YunYun if it weren’t for her fragile state after three abortions? If she were to go through another abortion,her life would be at risk! What do you people from the Zhou Family think you all deserve to have ourexcellent daughter to marry into your family? Look at yourself! What you want is something you can’thave!”
