Chapter 2474: Unable To Say (3)

That was why Qiao Zijin didn’t put any effort into improving her relationship with her son. They had already been living together for two years, but their relationship was just like when Qiao Zijin had first brought Chen Feng back. In fact, they shared a rather distant relationship.

Feeling that his relationship with Qiao Zijin wasn’t like one between a mother and her son, Chen Feng felt depressed. He wondered if he or Qiao Zijin was more miserable.

To be honest, neither of their situations was better than the other’s.

Even though two years had passed, their relationship had not improved for the better. In fact, Chen Feng had probably applied for a university in the capital to keep a distance from Qiao Zijin.

Based on this alone, there was no way Chen Feng would have allowed Qiao Zijin to follow him to the capital.

As a student, Chen Feng could stay in the school dormitory, which would be much cheaper than renting an apartment for himself.

If Qiao Zijin were to follow him, Qiao Zijin’s accommodation would be a problem in itself.

Upon hearing this problem, Qiao Zijin’s first response was to look for Qiao Nan.

Qiao Nan had already been living in the capital for so many years. Not only was she the daughter-in-law of the Zhai family, but she also owned many properties under her name. There was nothing Qiao Nan lacked, especially not money.

It was right to look for Qiao Nan as long as the problem could be settled with money.

Hearing Qiao Zijin’s words, Chen Feng remained silent but stared straight at Qiao Zijin, so much so that Qiao Zijin felt guilt creeping up. “Mom, it looks like it’s quite useful to have a younger brother or sister around. Why didn’t you and Dad give me a younger sibling? Actually, you’re in quite good health now. You still have time to give birth to one now.”

Based on what his mom was saying, he wouldn’t even need to attend university as long as he had a younger sibling. He could simply wait for his younger sibling to grow up and leech onto him or her for the rest of his life.

“Feng Feng, how could you say that? I’m your mom. Qiao Nan’s just an outsider to you. How could you favor an outsider instead of someone on your side?”

Wasn’t she only trying to save her son money by mentioning Qiao Nan when it came to money?

If she spent Qiao Nan’s money, Feng Feng would be able to save his money.

She wholeheartedly thought about her son, but why couldn’t he see that?

She was his mom. Everything she did was for his good. Feng Feng was still young and didn’t understand how miserable it was to be without money.

“Feng Feng, you have to listen to Mom on this matter. Your younger auntie’s conditions are exceptionally good. She won’t ever be able to finish spending her money in this lifetime. That little bit of money we take from her won’t impact her in the slightest bit. Do you think your mom would ask for something beyond her capabilities? I won’t ask her to die just so I can live.”

She thought that Chen Feng had no understanding of Qiao Nan’s situation and didn’t know that Qiao Nan wouldn’t even blink with that sum of money gone.

So, why should she help Qiao Nan save money?

She couldn’t bring this wealth with her when she died. It was better to spend it all while she was still alive.

If she helped Qiao Nan spend it, Qiao Nan would be at less of a loss and could live a better life in her next lifetime. What was wrong with that?

“I’m living in the dormitory.” Chen Feng didn’t try to rebuke her. He knew that his mom’s mind would never change even though he had all the reasons.

That was what his grandparents had told him. In the past years, Chen Feng had personally witnessed several times just how ‘special’ his mom, Qiao Zijin, was.

“Do as you wish. Just settle your own matters if you really want to go to the capital.”

“Are you really agreeing to let me follow you to the capital?”

Although Qiao Zijin hardly spent any time with her son over the past two years, she was no longer willing to be apart from him.

To put it bluntly, Chen Feng was going to the capital for his studies. But what if he decided that he no longer wanted to return to Ping Cheng after graduating?

To her, her home was wherever her son was.

Of course, she would simply follow her son back if he decided that he no longer wanted to live in the capital, even if it would be harder for her.

This matter was easy to resolve.

“I already said that you’re a grown person. No one can stop you from doing what you want. Suit yourself. You know my situation. Mom, if you think that you’ll be able to survive in the capital, you can go ahead. I’ll visit you during my vacations.”

Moving to the capital and settling there wasn’t something one could do just through talk alone.

Chen Feng had repeatedly heard about how difficult it was to be a Beijing drifter.

His mother might have an average family background, but she had good fortune. She had never needed to work hard in her whole life. Everything had come to her so easily and naturally. That was why she never ever stopped to think that it wouldn’t be so easy to do so.

His grandparents had already told him that his younger auntie was no longer the same person as before.

His mom’s ideas meant nothing. What was important was his younger auntie’s attitude.

She had married an impressive husband and had even given the Zhai family two sons and a daughter. In that way, Qiao Nan had much better fortune than Qiao Zijin.

Even a fool had to come to his senses one day.

With her three children, Qiao Nan had the entire world. There was no need for her to even consider the existence of a mere Qiao Zijin.

That was why the relationship between Qiao Zijin and Qiao Nan had changed a long time ago.

No matter how much of a fuss Qiao Zijin kicked up, that would be her own business. Chen Feng wasn’t going to join in and dig a grave for her. That way, Qiao Nan wouldn’t blame him for Qiao Zijin’s nonsense either.

After understanding that, Father and Mother Chen told Chen Feng that no one would be able to stop Qiao Zijin if she wanted to cause trouble for Qiao Nan and dig her own grave.

All Chen Feng needed to do was to express his attitude that he would never stand on Qiao Zijin’s side to bully Qiao Nan. Then, Chen Feng only had to live his own life while Qiao Zijin did whatever she wanted to Qiao Nan.

Father and Mother Chen had been absolutely right about their ex-daughter-in-law, Qiao Zijin. This meant that her image in Chen Feng’s mind was utterly destroyed.
