Chapter 903 Makes Sense
Meanwhile, the last guest at Commoner Residence had been sent home.
The housekeepers began to clean up the place while Feng Wan, who was tired, was soaking her feet. Nan Zhengde sat next to Feng Wan to keep her company. It was her birthday that day, so he wanted to make her happy and didn't go to the study room to write by himself as usual.
“Call Nan Xing over. I have something to ask him.” Nan Zhengde motioned to the housekeeper. Nan Xing had a few drinks that night, but he was not drunk and was only tipsy.
Walking over staggeringly, he bent down and put his hands into the footbath basin to massage Feng Wan's feet.
The Nan family members had educational lessons about filial piety since childhood, so it was completely natural for Nan Xing to wash Feng Wan's feet, and it was not an act he put on.
Nan Zhengde became displeased. “Why didn't you wash my feet during my birthday?”
“Next time. I'll definitely massage your feet for a week when it's your birthday next time,” Nan Xing responded casually.
“Chai Hua, go to the study room and get my notebook. I need to write this down so that he doesn't forget,” Nan Zhengde ordered.
Feng Wan glared at Nan Zhengde. “You must be drunk, Darling. Stop messing around. Chai Hua is already so tired today, and yet you still want to trouble him!"
Nan Zhengde pointed at Nan Xing. “I will remember what you said. If you dare to break your promise, I'll teach you a lesson!”
Nan Xing smiled. “Look, Grandma, Grandpa is jealous.”
“Ignore him. I have some questions for you. You said the two kids are your children, didn't you?” asked Feng Wan.
“Yes,” replied Nan Xing.
“Biologically?”
“That's not important. They're my daughters, anyway.”
Feng Wan became anxious at his reply. “What are you talking about? If that's not important, what is? Since they're not your biological kids, why did you say they're yours?”
"Even so, they're still my daughters. Blood ties are important, but family is not necessarily about blood ties. Some people who are related by blood are strangers to each other and even plot against each other. On the contrary, there are some people who aren't related by blood and love each other for the rest of their lives,” Nan Xing responded matter-of-factly.
Nan Zhengde nodded. “This makes sense. You're discerning!”
Feng Wan glared at Nan Zhengde. “Shut up. Don't you understand that the kids are not born to him? It means the woman is dating him with the kids. He even said in front of so many people that the kids are members of the Nan family. If people find out about this, they'll be making fun of our family.”
“How can they make fun of us, Grandma? Does a woman have no right to date someone after giving birth to a child? Don't you think you're too backward-looking?” Nan Xing retorted.
“I didn't say she doesn't have the right to date someone. It's just that you actually want to marry a woman with two kids when you haven't even been married. How bad are you as a man that you have to get a divorced woman as your girlfriend?”
Nan Xing stopped massaging Feng Wan's feet as he did not like what she said
The discriminatory tone of her words was too obvious. He could not accept that she actually said something like that.
"Grandma, a woman's personality, and morality will not change just because she has given birth to a child. Don't you think you shouldn't discriminate against her like this?”
"Did I discriminate against her? I just want to clarify things with you. Isn't it a joke that you claimed the kids as yours when they aren't?” Feng Wan had also become a little displeased.
That girl is good-looking and has a good temperament, but I didn't expect her to be so scheming. How can she try to take away my grandson when she has two kids?
Generally speaking, parents would definitely put the blame on the woman when their son made an irrational decision because their son was a member of their family, and it was easier to shift the responsibility onto the woman.
Therefore, Feng Wan would not really blame Nan Xing as she would habitually think that Lu Jingyuan was too scheming and tried to burden Nan Xing with two kids.
Even though Feng Wan was someone who could grasp the bigger picture, there was a selfish side to every human, and she had hoped that her grandson would marry a young and beautiful woman with a good family background.
After all, the Nan family was the most prestigious family in Flower City, and Nan Xing was so good- looking. She could not accept that he had found a woman who had given birth to two children to be his wife.
There are so many socialites and daughters of wealthy families in Flower City. Why can't he choose any of them? Why must he choose a divorcee?
Nan Xing was quite happy at first, but this topic instantly made the atmosphere tense.
As a dutiful grandson, he did not want to argue with Feng Wan about that matter and affect her good mood.
“Grandma, let's talk about this matter next time, okay? You must be tired today. Why don't you go to bed early?” Nan Xing suggested softly.
“Xing, I'm not an old conservative woman, but you must choose your wife carefully. Otherwise, you will be like your father...”
“That's enough. Today's a lovely day, so let's not talk about this. Xing is right. Let's talk about it next time. It's not like he's going to marry her soon.” Nan Zhengde was sleepy and did not want to talk anymore.
More importantly, he knew Nan Xing well. Nan Xing had dated too many women before, and none of them could be with him for more than a year.
In Nan Zhengde's opinion, Nan Xing was only temporarily interested in Lu Jingyuan due to her good looks.
He believed that they would break up when Nan Xing got bored of her after they dated for some time.
He did not think there was a need to worry too much about that matter as Nan Xing would not marry Lu Jingyuan anyway.
However, Feng Wan did not share the same opinion. As a woman, she objected to men being in a brief relationship just for a woman's appearance. She could not allow her grandson to be a womanizer.
In her opinion, he should stay away from Lu Jingyuan and not give her any hope if he did not plan on marrying her; but if he wanted to marry her, he had to look into her background to see if she was suitable for him.
"What are you talking about? Nan Xing is not young anymore. It's not like he's only a teenager. Since he has a girlfriend now, he has to think about marriage. What is he doing if he doesn't want to marry her? Fooling around?” Feng Wan refused to let it slide.
Nan Xing was stressed.
It was actually not Nan Xing's idea to let Lu Yunxue and Lu Yunbing perform that night. It was the idea of Erbao and Dabao.
In order not to disappoint the kids, Nan Xing and Lu Jingyuan reluctantly agreed to it. Unexpectedly, those new problems emerged after the performance.
“Grandma, I'm not fooling around, but not every girlfriend of mine wants to get married. What if she doesn't want to marry me?”
What Nan Xing said was true. So far, Lu Jingyuan didn't even admit that they were in a relationship, let alone getting married.
"Bring that girl over tomorrow. I'll ask her myself about the two kids and with whom she has the kids. Moreover, if she's just dating you for fun, she should break up with you now and stop wasting each other's time! All right. It's settled, then. I'm sleepy now. Help me go in so I can go to bed,” Feng Wan instructed decisively.
Nan Xing let out a sigh. This is getting out of hand!
