Chapter 443: Chapter 313: Bring It On_3

Li Qiyuan finished speaking and signaled Yu Huizhi with his eyes. She nodded repeatedly, somewhat late to understand: "Yes, yes, yes, Auntie is sorry for you all, and also for Huang Tianxuan. If any of you meet her next time, remember to pass on Auntie and Uncle’s apologies."

Li Qiyuan pursed his lips, seeing that the girls didn’t react much, he continued: "The mistakes Peifeng made must be corrected. No matter what, he has to choose from among you. But give him two days, let him think carefully before making a decision; it’s more responsible for you as well. I believe you don’t want Peifeng to make a hasty choice, right?"

"And all we can do, as your Auntie and Uncle, is educate Peifeng to make him realize his mistakes, to prevent repeating them, to guide him onto the right path. As for whom he ultimately chooses, we have no right to interfere and absolutely will not offer any suggestions!"

"Even the teacher?" Wu Wenyue couldn’t help it, and Xu Manning was also tearful: "Auntie and Uncle, Zhao Qingge is Peifeng’s mentor, how can you..."

Zhao Qingge, with a stern face, coldly said: "Shut up, all of you!"

The pressure was immense. Not only Wu Wenyue and Xu Manning dared not speak, even Li Yu and his wife fell silent. After four or five seconds, Li Qiyuan coughed dryly: "To be honest, your Auntie and I also have similar situations around us. Although we don’t quite accept it, if Peifeng insists, we won’t obstruct."

Old Li started shifting the responsibility, and quite logically: "But the same goes for you, so you can rest assured. As parents, we won’t suggest Peifeng choose anyone based on who we prefer, because this is his own feelings, and he needs to handle them himself. We have no right to interfere. Wifey!"

Yu Huizhi frowned and nodded: "Whomever Peifeng chooses is his freedom, and we can accept it."

Li Qiyuan followed up: "And I also hope you can accept it. If he finally chooses one, the other would perhaps reduce contact with Peifeng to avoid delaying herself, this is your Uncle and Auntie considering your happiness... can you do it?"

The three women were silent, then nodding or verbally agreeing.

But Li Peifeng struggled: "Could you extend it a few more days? When I first said two days, it was just metaphorical speech, not literally two days."

Li Qiyuan asked: "What date do you go to Shanghai for the annual meeting?"

"It starts on the eighth, and I have to leave on the seventh, but..."

Li Qiyuan saw Li Peifeng about to speak, waved his hand to interrupt: "Then make your decision by the seventh."

"Okay!"

"The seventh!"

Wu Wenyue and Xu Man had no objections, Zhao Qingge hesitated: "I have to go back to work on the fourth, but I’m also off on the sixth..."

Li Qiyuan negotiated: "Then let’s move it up to the fourth?"

Zhao Qingge glanced at Li Peifeng, seeing his helpless face, gently shook her head: "Forget it, the seventh, let him think it through."

"Alright, everyone agreed, so it’s set for the seventh!"

Li Peifeng thought to himself, clearly your "everyone" does not include me, am I not a member of this family?

But the force was strong, and he could only stay silent.

To possess, for long-lasting possession, how can one possess for long? People always hope to have beautiful experiences for a longer, a bit more extended time, but often things go contrary to their wishes.

Eventually, it has come to this point. Today is the first, six and a half days away from the seventh, when a choice must be made.

Actually, it’s not a choice at all. I have no right to choose; they’re just holding me in suspense... No, is there someone missing?

Li Peifeng was silent for a moment, his eyes swept across the three girls’ faces one by one, then took out his phone.

"Why take out your phone?"

"Who are you going to call?"

The three girls felt an ominous sense upon witnessing this, but Li Peifeng did not answer, directly calling Huang Tianxuan. He actually preferred to use WeChat for a video call, but she blocked him on the twenty-sixth last month, and Li Peifeng hadn’t contacted her since. So, he could only make a phone call. Fortunately, it got through after four or five seconds.

"What’s up?"

In addition to Huang Tianxuan’s voice, there was the unique hustle and broadcast announcements of the airport.

"Where are you?"

"Capital Airport, ready to board the plane home," Huang Tianxuan’s tone calm: "Why call me? You just got blocked for five or six days, and can’t hold it together already? Keep acting aloof, I still like that cold shoulder you gave me."

Li Peifeng glanced at the varied expressions of the people present and said calmly: "Cancel your ticket, don’t go home, come to my place first, I’ll introduce you to my parents."

"..."

There was no response from the other side; perhaps Huang Tianxuan was doubting whether she heard correctly.

Zhao Qingge raised her eyebrows and said sharply: "What do you mean?!"

Xu Manning was also dissatisfied: "She’s not even here, why call her? Just notify her over the phone once you’ve made the decision?"

While speaking, she got up and attempted to seize the phone, but Li Peifeng sidestepped and avoided her, continuing to converse with Huang Tianxuan: "Did you hear me? Can you come? If you can come, unblock me on WeChat, I’ll send you the address now, have the driver bring you over, you can get here in the evening, we’ll have dinner together and discuss some things, oh, they’re all here too."

Huang Tianxuan’s response was a brief three words: "Send the address."

"Alright."

Li Peifeng hung up the phone, ignoring the expressions of the girls and looked at his parents, his tone still relatively calm: "Mom, Dad, stop staring at me, and prepare some red envelopes."

"..."

"Two, one for Tianxuan, and also to make up for my mentor."

The words were calm yet full of longing for the storm, the power of anger, the flames of passion, and the confidence of victory.

This is the brave Li Peifeng, amidst the clouds and lightning, in the impossible hopeless situation, maintaining an exuberant stance as if the prophet of victory shouting:

——Let the storm come more fiercely!
