“But I heard that students from other schools… They’re going to hospitals to get abortions at such a young age. It’s really… Won’t the parents of these girls be heartbroken?” So how could she possibly not worry?
She was afraid that her son would become one of those irresponsible bast*rds.
The more Fang Fang said, the more worried she got. She could not help but want to personally see to Gao Feng going to school and having Gao Feng get her approval before interacting with any girls.
“Drink some water to calm yourself.” Qiao Nan handed a gla.s.s of water over to Fang Fang to ease her anxiety. “Fang Fang, how long have you had the habit of overthinking things?” She felt that Fang Fang was probably entering menopause. She was slightly more irritable, and her temper was worse than before. Moreover, she was more p.r.o.ne to overthinking things now.
“Probably half a year.” Fang Fang blushed but did not hide the truth from Qiao Nan and answered honestly.
Qiao Nan nodded. “It’s all right. That’s normal for a woman. It’ll be fine as long as you try to remain calm.” It was nothing special. There was nothing more common than a woman entering menopause. It was not just during menopause, but there was also nothing strange about a woman having mood swings once a month when on her period.
Fang Fang took a few sips of water and sighed. “Nan Nan, do you really think it’s normal for me to be like that? I’ve not had a good night’s sleep for three days just because of Gao Feng’s ‘wife’! I just feel uneasy in my heart. It feels like there’s a bunny jumping around in my heart.” How could she sleep with such a fl.u.s.tered heart?
Once Gao Yan pestered her, she only flared up even further.
It was all Gao Yan’s fault. Their son had surely picked up all his bad habits from Gao Yan. More importantly, why had he given her a son instead of a daughter? If Gao Feng had been a daughter, it would have been much easier for her to have a heart-to-heart talk with Gao Feng and tell her to protect herself. But because Gao Feng was a son and not a daughter, she was embarra.s.sed to say such things as a mother.
“Don’t worry. Gao Yan will help you settle this problem.” The mouth was the gate of misfortune and evil, after all. Gao Feng had been obedient as a child. But why was it that he had grown up to have such a greasy mouth and dared to say just about anything? Fang Fang had heard everything.
Qiao Nan sighed. Gao Feng probably felt that he was truly unlucky.
All he had done was call a girl his wife, and he had done so quite late in life. While he was still in elementary school, he had already heard his cla.s.smates calling each other husband and wife. It was only when he reached high school that he started dating and went along with the trend of calling his girlfriend his wife. Who would have expected that his mom would catch him right in the act?
Because he had upset his mom, his dad was infuriated.
Thinking about his wallet that had grown much thinner lately, Gao Feng was on the verge of tears. If this went on, his source of cash for his relations.h.i.+p would be cut off. How would he continue inviting his girlfriend out for dinner or bring her out to play?
Mom, shall we not throw a tantrum like this? Calling someone your wife won’t cost you your life. His girlfriend did not even mind it and even called him her husband. Mom, can’t you just act as if you don’t know anything and not interfere?
“Are you speaking ill of your mom in your heart again?” Gao Yan eyed Gao Feng coldly.
Gao Feng begged for mercy. “Dad, my dear dad. You’re not that old-fas.h.i.+oned, are you? I’m a grown-up with an ident.i.ty card. Can’t I get into a relations.h.i.+p? Is there a need for such a huge reaction? Dad, are you going to disagree to it and force me to break up with my girlfriend like Mom?”
His dad’s relations.h.i.+p with his mom was too good, so much so that he was being shown public affection every day. It had not been easy for him to wait until he came of age before getting a girlfriend, but even this was not allowed. Gao Feng felt that he was the most miserable kid on earth. “Dad, please don’t cut off my living allowance. You’re my birth father, and I’m your biological son. Mom’s not on my side, but you have to be on my side!”
Whatever he spent on his relations.h.i.+p came from the money that his dad gave him every month.
Gao Yan looked at his son in disdain. “You’re taking my money to get girls? I don’t care if you want to treat your girlfriend well, take her out for good meals, or take her out to play. It’s only right for men to treat the woman they like well. But you should rely on your own efforts to provide the woman that you like with happiness. What you’re spending now is my money. That means that whatever happiness you’re giving your girlfriend because of your money is ultimately from me. Do you understand the difference?”
“…” Gao Feng’s face was all scrunched up.
So that was to say that his dad was still on his mom’s side and that his living allowance was going to be cut. That meant that he was not going to be able to continue with his relations.h.i.+p and give his girlfriend happiness, right?
Thinking about how this was how it was going to end, Gao Feng felt slightly annoyed.
At this time, Gao Yan had given his son a very brutal and realistic first lesson in life. There was no one you could rely on but yourself. Whatever Gao Feng wanted, he first had to create it for himself. There was no use riding on his parents’ laurels.
Gao Feng grabbed his hair. “Dad, do you have no faith in me like Mom? I’ve always kept a safe distance from my girlfriend, and I’ve never gone beyond the line. What you guys are worried about will never happen! Dad, you should trust me!”
Gao Yan was already a sly old fox who had experienced countless battles. It was no big deal now that he was facing off with a little fox that he had given birth to. “Why are you so impetuous? How did I teach you in the past? The most important thing is to remain calm no matter the situation. Your mom is just reducing your monthly allowance. She’s not forcing you to break up with your girlfriend while you’re still in high school. She’s not mandating that you have to wait until you enter university to start dating, so what’s there to be upset over?”
“I…” Gao Feng was rendered speechless.
“You guys are still young. What’s important should be your feelings, not money. If your mom really forces you to break up with your girlfriend, maybe you can come and look for me for help, then. If that time comes, I might really have a solution for you. If your relations.h.i.+p is not based on feelings and is not that simple, then the amount of money in your pocket will determine how long this relations.h.i.+p will last.”
“No, no. We’re not that kind of people.” Gao Feng refused to admit that he had lost.
Gao Feng was never a spendthrift as a child, even though the Gao family was rich and Gao Yan had started a company that earned lots of money. Gao Feng was truly a rich second-generation heir.
