Chapter 401: Life’s Problem, You Must Choose One Or The Other!
Reality proved that Luo Feng had overlooked something very important.
Someone had to take care of the company when Ai Tingya took on the responsibility of giving birth, right? While the employees of the company were all very hardworking and could handle everything, the boss was like the captain at the helm in the ups and downs of the business world. The captain was an irreplaceable existence!
Due to Luo Feng"s lack of consideration, he had told his parents and Ai Zhaojiang in advance that the two of them were preparing to have children. The ringtone of his phone was like the background music in the mall and had never stopped.
"Oh my, the two of you have finally thought it through. Your father and I will pick Tingya up and go home immediately. Don"t worry, I"ll take care of Tingya!" Mother Luo called excitedly, every word raised in joy.
"There"s no need, Mom. The two of us are doing quite well in Shanghai. It"s quite convenient to conduct checkups and everything here." Luo Feng held his forehead. Who did his mother actually give birth to?
"Our place isn"t bad either. That big city is so polluted," Mother Luo said non-stop. "Besides, Tingya likes my cooking. I don"t care. I have to stay by Tingya"s side and take care of her during the entire pregnancy!"
Luo Feng could feel his mother"s excitement even though it was through the screen.
Ai Tingya was extremely touched as she listened from the side. She covered her mouth and giggled.
Luo Feng rolled his eyes at her and shook his head helplessly. He was about to say something when another call came in.
Seeing that it was Ai Zhaojiang, Luo Feng temporarily hung up on Mother Luo.
"Grandpa? What"s wrong?" Luo Feng asked.
"Ahem, it"s just that… Yes, I have tidied up a room for Tingya… Erm… When are you guys coming back? I"ll head to the airport… to pick you up," Ai Zhaojiang said shyly.
Lightsvel.cοm The older generation was always inexplicably reserved. Ai Zhaojiang rarely called to care about Ai Tingya, but she would beat around the bush and bypa.s.s others. Sometimes, she was as awkward as a child.
Luo Feng knew Ai Zhaojiang"s motive and smiled bitterly. "Grandpa, we haven"t…"
"Where are you going if not back here?" Ai Zhaojiang exploded. "It"s not easy for Tingya to have free time. Of course, she has to come back to stay with me, her grandfather!"
Previously, Ai Zhaojiang was not very happy when Luo Feng and Ai Tingya had planned to go to Shanghai to develop. His granddaughter had finally returned to his side and had to keep shifting every two to three years, but he could not stop the young man from exploring the world, so he had been enduring.
Ai Zhaojiang was so happy that he couldn"t sleep ever since he found out that Ai Tingya was going to take some time off to prepare for her pregnancy. He found someone to clean up the courtyard house the next day.
"I don"t care. Anyway, Tingya wants to stay with me!" Ai Zhaojiang said something similar to Mother Luo. "I"ve even contacted the nanny!"
Luo Feng laughed and turned to look at Ai Tingya.
He had no choice but to ask Ai Tingya for help.
Ai Tingya took the phone and said softly, "Grandpa, it"s Tingya."
"Aiya, Tingya." Ai Zhaojiang"s voice softened as well. "Grandpa is almost done with the preparations. Come back early to take a look to see if there anything missing?"
"But Grandpa, Mom also said that she wants us to return to Crown City." Ai Tingya"s voice was small.
The other party was silent for two to three seconds before hanging up.
Ai Tingya and Luo Feng did not understand Ai Zhaojiang"s thoughts. They looked at each other and smiled helplessly.
The two of them leaned against each other and sat on the sofa, watching the boring breeding program on TV. They made small talk and enjoyed the leisure of doing nothing.
Buzz—
Buzz—
Not long after, Luo Feng and Ai Tingya"s phones vibrated.
The two of them picked it up and took a look. The message popped up like a staircase. Luo Feng opened it and saw that it was all messages from Mother Luo and Professor Ai.
These two elders had already ended a round of battles behind Luo Feng and Ai Tingya"s backs. It was just a matter of where Ai Tingya should go and crazily giving excuses.
Mother Luo said that she would take care of them personally, so Ai Zhaojiang found a live-in nanny with 20 years of experience. Mother Luo said that Crown City was closer to Ai Tingya, so Ai Zhaojiang said that the medical standards in his city were the best in the country…
In short, they argued for more than an hour, but neither of them convinced the other.
"These two are really…" Ai Tingya was both touched and helpless.
She gently punched Luo Feng"s arm and said angrily, "It"s all your fault. You mentioned it so early. What should we do now?"
Luo Feng also wanted to resign and serve his wife at home.
However, after Ai Tingya got pregnant, the company"s matters still had to fall on him. This went against Luo Feng"s original intention. He did not expect Mother Luo and Ai Zhaojiang to fight. It was probably too late to retract his previous words.
Luo Feng scratched his head in frustration. "Ha… what should we do now?"
According to Luo Feng"s understanding of the elders on both sides, they might have started preparing long ago. They had probably already reached the step of choosing clothes for the child.
Both sides would definitely be disappointed if they chose either.
Ai Tingya leaned on Luo Feng"s shoulder. Her heart warmed, thinking that someone was thinking about her. She said, "How long do you think they"ll fight for?"
"I don"t know." Luo Feng hugged Ai Tingya. "But I"m sure that they would continue fighting if we don"t speak."
As expected, 10 minutes later, another three screenshots were sent over.
The reason why Mother Luo and Ai Zhaojiang chatted with words instead of video or phone calls was to show off their advantages and increase their chances of being chosen.
Ai Tingya and Luo Feng looked at the screen that kept flashing and suddenly felt caught between a rock and a hard place.
They had to choose one or the other!
Luo Feng rubbed the back of his neck and couldn"t help but laugh. "Isn"t this too enthusiastic? Tingya, where do you want to go?"
Ai Tingya glared at Luo Feng. "It"s very difficult to choose now."
Buzz! Buzz!
Buzz! Buzz!
Their phones were still vibrating non-stop. The more Ai Tingya listened, the more fl.u.s.tered she became. From the content of the conversation, it seemed like both sides would not stop until they had a winner.
This was simply roasting Luo Feng and Ai Tingya over a fire.
They had originally planned to deal with it coldly, but it seemed like they could not do so now.
"What should we do?" Ai Tingya looked worried.
She knew that Ai Zhaojiang and Mother Luo were doing this for her own good and didn"t want to disappoint either of them.
"It"s fine." Luo Feng couldn"t bear to see Ai Tingya sad. He immediately patted his chest and said, "Don"t worry, leave it to me. I"ll definitely handle it well."
"Really?"
Ai Tingya smiled through her tears and looked expectantly at Luo Feng as he operated his phone.
Just as he said, the shaking stopped very quickly. Both sides seemed to have suddenly thought it through and did not send another message.
Ai Tingya said in surprise, "How did you do it?"
Luo Feng turned his phone proudly. There was only a simple reply: "If you guys continue arguing, I"ll take care of Tingya alone!"
One sentence sent to two sides.
"Since I can"t resolve the conflict, I"ll divert it. They will definitely unite and deal with me unanimously!" Luo Feng placed his hands on his hips.
