Chapter 502: Chapter 502

Huo Feng especially liked bringing Pu Sangzhi to meet his family members.

It could be said that ever since he met Pu Sangzhi, he plotted and schemed to introduce her to all his doting elders, except for old Huo.

His maternal grandparents, his mom...

Well, just these few!

Huo Feng’s intentions, as transparent as Sima Zhao’s, were quite clear: he wanted Pu Sangzhi to experience life as his wife early on!

"Let me tell you, you don’t need to be nervous about meeting my mom, and it’s not like you haven’t met her before. My mom gets even more nervous seeing you..."

As Huo Feng said this, he even raised an eyebrow at Pu Sangzhi, "You don’t know how much my mom approves of you. She told me a while ago that she’s been looking forward to you calling her ’mom’. Hey, when will you fulfill her wish?"

Pu Sangzhi didn’t know if he was joking or serious, all she knew was that she felt very embarrassed, "Did you tell your mom some nonsense again? Hey, our relationship isn’t even confirmed, don’t go around spreading rumors!"

Huo Feng retorted, "How is this spreading rumors? This is my mom’s dream! Don’t you even allow my mom to dream? Tomorrow, I’ll tell my mom that you won’t even let her dream!"

Pu Sangzhi gave him a pat, "Don’t spout nonsense to your mom! And definitely don’t talk nonsense about me in front of her. I don’t want to leave her with a bad impression, this... later..."

She stopped mid-sentence, pulling back just in time!

Because then, Huo Feng was looking at her with a particularly challenging expression!

"Later what?" Huo Feng asked.

"Nothing." she answered.

"Later become my wife?" Huo Feng pressed.

Pu Sangzhi evasively walked past him, "Focus on your cooking, and stop talking about this messy topic! And don’t take your mom to the store, don’t cause trouble for me!"

Huo Feng thought: That’s impossible!

Early in the morning, after Huo Feng had sent the two girls to the store, he rode his electric scooter back home in a rush.

Huo Feng was very determined to get Shen Yu to take him shopping for clothes!

If not today, it had to happen within this month!

As Pu Sangzhi’s boyfriend, he had to take some action to support Pu Sangzhi’s sales!

Of course, as a poor student with no money, this kind of expenditure naturally had to be covered by his guardian!

Huo Feng might be foolish, but he knew that there were only a few years in life when one could spend the elders’ money freely and without guilt! Once he earned his own money, such expenses could no longer be charged to the elders!

So, as soon as Huo Feng walked through the front door, he was ready to talk to Shen Yu about this.

But when he excitedly ran to Shen Yu’s room, Shen Yu was packing her luggage...

The wooden floor was covered with an open suitcase, the wardrobe doors were wide open, clothes were strewn across the bed, and Shen Yu was still rummaging through the wardrobe...

"Mom, where are you going?"

Seeing all this, Huo Feng was full of questions, "Wow, packing your clothes like that, you’re not fighting with old Huo and planning to move back to your parents’ home, are you?"

Shen Yu hauled out a bunch of clothes and threw them casually on the bed, giving Huo Feng’s shoulder a pat, "Move aside, don’t block my way."

Huo Feng stepped back to the doorway, leaning against the doorframe, still watching Shen Yu bustling around with curiosity, "Mom, where are you going?"

Shen Yu pushed the suitcase aside, went over to the bed to start sorting through the pile of clothes, and said, "I’ve made plans with a few girlfriends to travel to Hong Kong. Is there anything you want? I can bring it back for you."

"Yeah, bring me some skincare products. I’ve run out of facial cleanser, oh, and bring me some cologne too. Don’t get the cheap ones, get the expensive ones."

Huo Feng was straightforward with his request, and after finishing his list, he suddenly remembered the main reason he was there, "No, how long are you going to travel for? It’s not for a month, right? When are you leaving?"

Shen Yu was busy folding clothes and didn’t even lift her head to answer Huo Feng, "I’m leaving tonight, I’ll play in Hong Kong for a week, then head to Taiwan for two weeks, and come back after three weeks. Though, if I think of some other places on the way, I might just go there directly."

"That’s way too cool of you! Leaving home to two men, going off to enjoy yourself for so long!"

Huo Feng couldn’t help frowning, "Why don’t you have to tutor students over the summer? I see old Huo is taking on classes at the elementary school! Both are teachers, but how come he makes money and you spend it!"

Shen Yu put down the clothes in her hands, turned around, squinted her eyes, and fixed her gaze on Huo Feng, "He’s a man, I’m a woman, he’s the husband, I’m his wife, it’s only right that he makes money for me to spend. He’s leading our class of students, and from the substitute teaching fee, I’m giving him a quarter, do you have a problem with that?"

Realizing Shen Yu’s tone was particularly serious, Huo Feng quickly cracked a smile, "I wouldn’t dare, I wouldn’t dare. Take your time playing, have a good time, however you want to play!"

Shen Yu glared at Huo Feng with annoyance, "My affairs are not for you to interfere with. I earn my own money, travel on my own, and if I want to give myself a summer or winter vacation, what business is it of yours? You should feel lucky I’m not meddling with you already."

Sometimes, Huo Feng genuinely felt that there was inequality between men and women in this world.

Just look at his parents, both teachers. Every summer or winter break, Old Huo always went out of his way to lead classes and earn tutoring fees, while his mom would always use Old Huo’s tutoring fees to travel around the world.

Despite having a profession that allowed for summer and winter vacations, Old Huo was always a model of hard work. And his mom always ended up making everyone else jealous with her fun!

Anyway, Huo Feng was very jealous...

The more he thought about it, the more he realized that in this world, women were always treated better...

"Mom, I have no clothes to wear. Are you going to go shopping with me this afternoon?"

When Huo Feng saw that Shen Yu was about to embark on her big trip, he could only seize the last bit of time he had and tried to get her to go and support Pu Sangzhi.

However, Shen Yu declined, "You have no clothes to wear? Your wardrobe is bursting at the seams, okay! Save some of that money you spend on clothes so your mom can have a proper trip."

"But I really need clothes..." Huo Feng cried out.

Immediately after, he received the deadly stare from Shen Yu!

Huo Feng quickly corrected himself, "Mom, what I meant was, you could take just a little bit out of Old Huo’s tutoring fees to buy me a few sets of clothes!"

After considering, Shen Yu firmly refused, "Nonsense. You already have so many clothes, and you’re still eyeing your dad’s tutoring fees! He’s taken on two classes this summer because he’s got his eye on a new watch. He’s been working so hard. Do you have the heart to swindle him?"

"But I really have no clothes to wear..."

Huo Feng rested his head against the wall, wandering back and forth, his fingers fiddling with the light switch on the wall, looking utterly pitiable.

"How can you both go out traveling, save up to buy watches, improve your own quality of life, yet completely neglect the quality of life of your son... I’m your only child, and it’s pitiful that you wouldn’t even buy me clothes... "

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk..."

Shen Yu gave him a look of disgust, her brows furrowed tightly, "Don’t make yourself out to be so pitiful. How much money can you possibly blow through in a year? Don’t you have any idea?"

Huo Feng dramatically widened his phoenix eyes, "I really don’t have any money..."

Shen Yu couldn’t help but sigh deeply, picking up her phone with a hint of unhappiness, "Fine, fine, I’ll spare 1,000 yuan to buy you clothes and transfer it to you via WeChat."

"Mom! Mom~ just wait a bit!"

Huo Feng quickly rushed over, grabbing Shen Yu’s wrist, "Don’t transfer it to me, you should take me to Tangxia to buy them!"

Shen Yu frowned, "When would I have the time! There’s a flight tonight, and I still need to pack, there’s just no time!"

Seeing that Shen Yu was particularly hard to talk to today, Huo Feng could only come clean, "Mom, I’m not hiding it from you. Sangzhi is working part-time at the Metersbonwe Store, just for a month. I really want to go and support her, buy a few clothes from there, and also take you to see her. You haven’t seen your daughter-in-law in a long time, don’t you want to go see her?"

It was then that Shen Yu finally understood belatedly, realizing that this whole long spiel from her son was to get her to take him to see Pu Sangzhi at the Metersbonwe Store! ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹•𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖•𝗇𝗲𝘁

"Indeed, it’s been a long time since I’ve seen my daughter-in-law. I do want to see her..." said Shen Yu.

Having said that, she thought for a moment, then promptly backtracked, "No, there’s really no time! I’ll go after I come back from my trip!"

"Mom, then you’ve got to come back within a month," said Huo Feng.

"Sure. No problem!" Shen Yu agreed readily.

With that, Huo Feng finally felt at ease, "Thanks, Mom!"

However, at that very moment, the bathroom door in the room was suddenly opened...

Huo Mingshan walked out leisurely, doing up his belt, "Sangzhi is working part-time, huh? At Metersbonwe? I’ll go check on her in a bit."

How did this old goof hear everything?
