Chapter 1452: Chapter 1452: The Feeling of Growing Old

But now, she was hopelessly in love with Ye Fei, and suddenly felt that he was the best man in the world—so good that no other man could compare.

She believed that even just a sliver of his love was better than having another man who would love her daughter wholeheartedly.

However, there was still something inappropriate about it, because if she agreed, wouldn’t that mean mother and daughter sharing one husband?

Li Minghua’s internal conflict lasted only a moment before she couldn’t think any further. After that heavy thrust, Ye Fei didn’t stop. The increasingly forceful thrusts and withdrawals sent her soul flying, leaving her unable to think about anything else…

It wasn’t until nine o’clock that Ye Fei and Li Minghua returned to the Zhou residence. At this point, Li Minghua’s legs were still a bit weak.

In order not to arouse suspicion from her family, she had to force herself to act normal. However, in places where no one could see, she pinched Ye Fei more than once or twice—coquetry seemed to be an innate trait of women.

Even Li Minghua, who was usually extremely calm and wise, couldn’t avoid it after falling in love with a man.

At the Zhou residence, Old Mr. Zhou, Zhou Bo, and Zhou Tingting were all present, and they were all very anxious.

Zhou Tingting naturally assumed that Ye Fei and her mother had been discussing her situation. Old Mr. Zhou, on the other hand, was worried. Although Ye Fei had said he wanted to resolve the grudges yesterday, that was because he had deep feelings for the Zhou and Liuye families. But Li Minghua didn’t.

Moreover, most of the ideas for dealing with the two families had come from her. The old man was afraid that Ye Fei wouldn’t let Li Minghua go.

As for Zhou Bo, it was simple: although Li Minghua didn’t have romantic feelings for him, he was deeply in love with her.

Last night, his wife had spent the night with another man, and not just any man, but a world-famous lecher. How could he not be worried?

However, upon seeing Ye Fei and Li Minghua, the three of them simultaneously felt relieved. Ye Fei was certainly full of energy, but Li Minghua looked even more radiant, with no sign of having been wronged.

But only the three Zhou family members would think this way.

If there were experienced people present, they would likely see at a glance what kind of pleasure Li Minghua had experienced last night. However, the three of them were different.

Old Mr. Zhou had never been married and naturally knew nothing about the affairs of men and women.

Zhou Bo, who had only Li Minghua in his heart, had focused all his energy on work after realizing that Li Minghua didn’t have feelings for him. He had almost no experience in this area. As for Zhou Tingting, she was even more innocent.

Seeing her mother so cheerful, she thought Ye Fei had simply cheered her up with words. She had no idea that her mother’s happiness was indeed because of Ye Fei, but not because of his words, but because of his actions.

“Mom, Ye Fei brother, what did you two talk about all night?” After sitting down in the living room, Zhou Tingting was the first to ask. Her lifelong happiness was at stake, so she didn’t care about being reserved at the moment.

“We discussed some family matters,” Ye Fei replied.

Hearing this, Zhou Tingting couldn’t help but feel a bit disappointed. However, the fact that Ye Fei and her mother got along well was already a good thing for her. The rest could be discussed later.

After answering Zhou Tingting, Ye Fei got straight to the point with Old Mr. Zhou, “Grandpa Zhou, the number one leader has given me a very important task that needs someone as wise as Aunt Li to help with. So I’d like to ask her to go back to Wanghai with me. What do you think?”

Old Mr. Zhou only thought for a moment before nodding and saying, “That’s fine. I don’t have anything left for Minghua to do here. Staying here would only bury her talent. Moreover, after this term, I plan to step down and settle in Wanghai. It’s not bad for you to go ahead.”

Old Mr. Zhou’s quick agreement made Zhou Bo and his daughter anxious.

“Minghua, are you leaving?” Zhou Bo was the first to ask. For nearly twenty years, although Li Minghua hadn’t been affectionate with him, he could see her every day. But once she left, meeting again would be difficult.

Li Minghua didn’t have romantic feelings for Zhou Bo and didn’t see him as a husband, but they had grown up together since their teens. She had come to see him as her brother. Moreover, they were nominally husband and wife and had a daughter.

But last night, she had been fucked senseless by her husband’s nephew and had fallen in love with that young man.

Now she was even planning to leave with him, which inevitably made her feel guilty in front of Zhou Bo.

However, Li Minghua was not the type to be indecisive. Moreover, her departure might be a good thing for Zhou Bo.

He was just over forty, in the prime of his life. In the past, she had tried to persuade him to find another woman who liked him, but he had refused.

Perhaps this separation would help him move on and find someone who truly loved him, allowing him to step out of her shadow.

“I’ve made up my mind,” Li Minghua said coldly, hoping to make Zhou Bo give up on her. But she also secretly decided that before leaving Beijing, she wouldn’t let Ye Fei touch her again. This was her way of showing respect to Zhou Bo.

Because he cared too much, Zhou Bo had always been weak in front of his wife and didn’t say anything further.

However, Zhou Tingting wasn’t so easy to persuade. “Mom, how can I miss you if you leave?” she asked.

Li Minghua had wanted to harden her heart and ignore her daughter’s plea, but thinking of Ye Fei’s many good qualities, she no longer opposed the idea of her daughter liking him as strongly as before.

Finally, she said, “The college entrance examination is coming up soon. You could just apply to a school in Wanghai when the time comes.”

“But that’s still several months away.” Zhou Tingting’s eyes brightened when she saw that her mother didn’t oppose her going to Wanghai. She quickly suggested, “Why don’t I just transfer now?”

Li Minghua couldn’t bear to refuse her daughter, but she felt uneasy about just sending her daughter to Ye Fei. She decided to let Ye Fei be the bad guy and gave him a meaningful look, only to find that he seemed distracted at the moment.

Ye Fei wasn’t thinking about anything important. He had spent seven years in the valley and then unexpectedly entered the True Void Realm, where he spent another year.

Now, hearing Li Minghua and Zhou Tingting talk about school, he suddenly felt a sense of distance, even a feeling of having lived through another lifetime. It made him feel as if he had grown old.

However, Ye Fei was only eighteen years old.

Even if he counted the seven years in the valley, he was only twenty-five, far too young to have such feelings.

The reason he felt a bit dazed for a moment was that what he had done and was about to do far exceeded what a young person could achieve. He was just feeling a bit sentimental for a moment.
