Reborn 92's Business Tycoon

Chapter 168: Chapter 168: All encounters are long-lost reunions (Part 2)

Just as Zhang Yan was playing with her phone, Feng Yiping first set his phone to vibrate, then shamelessly used the excuse that his phone was out of battery and wanted to use her phone to make a call.

Feng Yiping didn't dare to look at the expressions of the other two girls. Everyone seemed to be pretending that nothing had happened. Xiao Zhijie was still chatting with the person sitting across from him with a smile on his face, as if there was no onlookers in his heart even though he was not there.

Feng Yiping pretended to look for the phone number on his own phone, and then used Zhang Yan's phone to directly dial his number. After ringing a few times and saying that no one answered, he returned Zhang Yan's biaodai phone.

When they returned to the dormitory, they were immediately notified that they had to go to a meeting by the West Lake. Without stopping, he got on the express bus in the province. While sitting in the car, he couldn't hold back and sent a text message to Zhang Yan, and then the two of them chatted very smoothly, which made the nearby Xiao Zhijie very jealous.

They chatted like this all the way, even using up the power in the spare battery. After the company meeting ended at around 8 pm, he returned to the hotel and called Zhang Yan. It was only then that he learned that the number he was calling was a local card that she had bought when she went back to her hometown during the Spring Festival.

When she received Feng Yiping's first text message, she was about to change the card. In other words, if Feng Yiping had hesitated for another three or five minutes, he would not have been able to contact her!

After that, it went very smoothly. Feng Yiping went to the school where she worked, and then Zhang Yan came to Feng Yiping's company to visit. After that, on Valentine's Day that year, the two of them basically confirmed their relationship.

Feng Yiping asked later, and Zhang Yan said that her first impression of him was similar to his, except that for many girls, love is actually being loved, and they are generally not too proactive.

In short, from the moment they first met, things went very well between them.

This is exactly where Feng Yiping is now hesitating and wavering. It seems a bit evil to ask that Zhang Yan, who is now 11 or 12 years old, fall in love with him at first sight!

This request seems a little bit evil.

So, should they meet now, or wait until the autumn harvest next year? This is really a problem.

Feng Yiping's biggest worry is that it's too early to meet now, and what if Zhang Yan treats him as an older brother? What's even more melodramatic than childhood sweethearts is that the other one in your childhood sweetheart treats you as an older brother.

But just watch and wait for five, six, seven or eight years? Feng Yiping is not willing to do that.

At that moment, Zhang Hong, holding a banana and followed by the little yellow dog, jumped into the car through the open door behind. He took a seat here and there, and when Feng Yiping turned around, he froze for a moment, then quickly got off the car. 'Sister, there's someone else in the car.'

'Where?' Feng Yiping saw Zhang Yan holding his younger brother's hand coming over from his side in the rearview mirror. Well, there was no way to avoid it now, so just be generous.

Feng Yiping took a deep breath, jumped out of the car carrying a backpack, and tried to make his smile look more natural. 'Zhang Yan, Zhang Hong, right? I'm Feng Yiping. This is a little gift from my uncle for you, some schoolbags and stationery, and some reference books. See if you like them.'

Zhang Hong hid behind his sister, only showing a head, while the little yellow dog was behind him, only showing a wagging tail.

Zhang Yan stood in front of them, blushing, 'No, you're too kind, we have all this stuff.'

'Take it, it's my uncle's way of saying thank you.'

Feng Yiping took a few steps forward and handed Zhang Yan the backpack. By this time, he had completely calmed down. Maybe it was the long period of deep breathing that had helped, but in any case, seeing Zhang Yan standing next to him now, he felt at peace again.

For some reason, Zhang Yan didn't ask his father and just took it, whispering, 'Thank you!'

Feng Yiping really wanted to just stand there, just stand there together, not saying anything, and that would be fine.

But he was afraid that the adults over there would see something, so he took Zhang Hong, who was hiding in the background, by the hand and said, 'What grade are you in? Do you listen to your mother and sister at home?'

Zhang Hong was very shy in front of strangers and didn't dare to speak. Zhang Yan said, 'He is just being naughty. It would be strange if he listened to me!'

Zhang Zuodong and a few of his disciples tried to persuade Mei Yiliang and the others to stay for a visit, but they were carrying big bags and small bags and were preparing to walk back to the village. He came over and said to Feng Yiping, 'Yiping, do you want to come to my house for a visit and have a drink?'

I thought, of course I want to, but what came out of my mouth was, 'No need, Uncle Zhang, it's not early anymore. After the New Year, my uncle and the others will still come over, and there will be plenty of time then.'

'That's fine, then. We'll definitely come visit next Chinese New Year. Take care on the road!' He helped close the car door and stood on the roadside watching them go.

Feng Yiping remained expressionless, keeping an eye on the intersection in the rearview mirror until they turned the corner and were no longer in sight, when he let out a small sigh of relief.

Over there, Zhang Zuodong was walking happily home with his two children and a small dog. Seeing an extra bag in Zhang Yan's hand, he said, 'Whose is this? Are you sure you have the right one?'

'It was just given to me by Feng Yiping, who said his uncle bought it.'

Oh, that's fine then. Zhang Zuodong really thought it was bought by Mei Yiliang. After all, there are now a total of five decoration teams, and his apprentices account for nearly two of them.

'Dad, is that Feng Yiping from earlier a relative?'

'No, they're not from the same county.'

'Has he been here before?'

'No, well, yes, he came to see me with Boss Mei at the beginning of the year, but you didn't meet him.'

Really? I've never seen him before? Why do I feel like I know this person? Zhang Yan glanced back up the road.

The rest of the way, Feng Yiping was not excited, but a little excited. He was thinking about this and that. When his brother-in-law spoke to him, he was always distracted. His second brother-in-law, however, was sleeping soundly in the back seat, snoring loudly.

Huang Jingping's mother's small shop had the busiest business during the two days of the New Year. She and her younger sister had helped out in the shop since the day after the Chinese New Year holiday.

At noon today, Wang Changning came to the shop and spoke to her for a while, saying that his parents might be back at around 3 pm. She felt reassured, and at a little after 3, she told her parents where she was going and left without her sister, heading for the bus station alone.

It wasn't long before she met up with Wang Changning, and Feng Zhenchang's car arrived. Everyone got out, but Feng Yiping was nowhere to be seen. Wang Chang'an looked at the pretty girl who had just been standing with her brother, who kept looking this way, and asked Wang Changning, 'What's up with that girl?'

'Sister, you're thinking too much! Where's Yiping? Why isn't he with you?'

'Waiting for Yiping!' Women are naturally nosy. 'Why aren't you as capable as Yiping! He's with his brother-in-law in the back, probably going to be another hour!'

Wang Changning went over and said that. Huang Jingping thought about it for a while, and since she didn't bother to go back to the store, she went to the Xinhua Bookstore, which was still open, and found a book to hold in her hands, but her eyes kept looking over to the bus station.

She waited and waited like this. At around 4 o'clock, a white van stopped. Feng Yiping jumped out and stretched. She hurried out and shouted, 'Feng Yiping!'

Feng Yiping was taken aback at first, then took out a bag from the car bag. Inside were the math problem sets he had bought, as well as a few tapes. He had just given his Walkman to Zhang Yan, so he didn't need the tapes anymore.

Huang Jingping's second and third uncles were going shopping in the street, but they were both smiling and watching from a distance. Huang Jingping was even happier than they were, and took what Feng Yiping was holding. 'Thank you. I just saw your parents. They were shopping upstairs. Do you want to come to my house and have a seat?'

They had been waiting here for more than an hour. 'No, your family is busy right now, so I won't disturb them. My parents should be back soon. If we delay any longer, we won't be able to get home before dark.'

'Oh,' Huang Jingping was slightly upset, 'then wait a moment, I'll go get the homework you did over the winter vacation.'

'No need, Changning has it.'

'Our two classes are a bit different, so wait for me!'

As Huang Jingping trotted home, Feng Yiping, who had just met Zhang Yan, felt a mixture of emotions. However, after the next year's high school entrance exam, this situation will improve!
