Return To 1990

Lu Feng stood up and dusted his butt. The ride on the way home felt uncomfortable. It was as if he had tricked Datou. He smiled and put a lid over his emotions.

Over the years, he had learned a simple but valuable lesson: Businessmen with conscience go bankrupt. As for the rich people who donated money, some were for fame, some for tax exemption, and some for marketing. Who knows if they were even real or fake.

When Jiang Xiaoyan returned home, she saw that the leather bag had been pulled out from under the bed. She was paralyzed with fear. She ran over and saw that she had lost 200,000. She hugged the leather bag and wailed.

As soon as Lu Feng entered the house, he saw her crying and asked, "What's wrong? Ah?"

"Daddy, the money was stolen!" Duo Duo blinked her big eyes, filled with moisture, seemingly crying with her mother.

"We didn't lose it!" Lu Feng hurriedly said, “I took it."

Jiang Xiaoyan stopped crying and asked, “Why did you take the money? It was $200,000!"

"It's a factory. I bought an assembly line and paid for it. I took over 20,000 this morning and rented the sugar factory in the suburbs. Hurry up and get up." Lu Feng helped her up.

"It wasn't easy to earn money. During this period of time, you've been working hard. What if you lose it? Talk to me!" Jiang Xiaoyan was so anxious that she stomped her feet, but the money had already been paid.

"If I had discussed it with you. Would you have let me invest the money?" Lu Feng sat down and asked her.

"What about compensation? Don’t think of earning money in business without thinking of losing it first. I don’t want to be rich or lavish. I just wanted to save this money in the bank for interest. It's enough for us to live till we are eighty years old."

Jiang Xiaoyan felt a little uneasy in her heart. The feeling of panic once again enveloped her heart. She could think of the happiest days. There was no risk, enough money to spend, and the family was safe and sound.

Jiang Xiaoyan hugged Duo Duo. The atmosphere at home was a little heavy.

"Are you mad at me?" Lu Feng asked.

"No, I don't dare!"

Lu Feng laughed. The atmosphere of the room was already cold, yet she still said she didn't dare. He stood up and said, “It's my fault. I should have told you. You are also half of the family. I was wrong. I apologize. How about this? I haven't cooked for a long time, I'll make you something delicious. What do you want to eat?"

"Chicken wings!" Duo Duo cried out happily.

"Is Daddy okay?"

"Okay! Daddy is good" Lu Feng replied energetically.

"Who is right, Daddy or mommy?"

She looked at Jiang Xiaoyan and then at Lu Feng. She was a little embarrassed, but when Lu Feng said chicken wings in a low voice, she immediately had a choice.

"Daddy!"

Jiang Xiaoyan rolled her eyes. As expected, she had been bribed by chicken wings.

Lu Feng should be fine for the next few days. There were not many suppliers right now and they were just waiting for the assembly line to be installed.

Jiang Xiaoyan looked at the table with a smile on her face. She thought to herself, “I'm really cheap. In the past, when someone slapped me (Editor: guess who?) on the face, I just asked for less food to make them happy”

Now that she was sitting here, unmoving, with a table full of dishes ready. The money he spent was what he earned, but she was still angry. She did not know of the profits that the investment could bring.

"Alright, let's eat!" Lu Feng took off his apron and smacked his lips. "I'm just missing a TV."

Jiang Xiaoyan looked at him and asked, "Did you want to hit me just now?"

"Why would I hit you?"

"You don't want to hit me even though I'm so angry with you? I feel like I've been unreasonable lately." Jiang Xiaoyan lowered her head in embarrassment as blurted out the words.

"You've looked very pretty recently; beautiful women usually make trouble without reason. It's normal!" Lu Feng picked up a pair of chicken wings and suddenly thought of the seventh lunar month. “Is it the seventh lunar month?"

"Today is the 5th day of the seventh lunar month, what's wrong?"

"Qixi!(1) I have to make arrangements for Valentine's Day." Lu Feng said happily.

"You should be ashamed. What's with Valentine's Day? You're acting like you're overseas and you're going to dance." Jiang Xiaoyan knew that he could do anything that was out of line. Recently, Lu Feng had been very haughty. A few days ago, he wanted to hold her hand on the street. Fortunately, no one had seen him; otherwise, she would have been embarrassed beyond measure.

"Let's move shift before Valentine's Day. I'll go out tomorrow to look around!" Lu Feng picked up his bowl and chopsticks and said, “Let's eat!"

"Don't mess around. You're making things so embarrassing in public."

"Don't worry!"

Jiang Xiaoyan repeated her words several times, but she was still worried. Now, when you called a girl on the street, she was probably a hooligan. It was just that the young people were a little more flamboyant. They were hot and daring. At most, they would sit in the back seat and touch their waists together.

This was an age when openness meets conservatism. The television could broadcast aerobics. In reality, couples would blush even when they held hands. Everyone was standing at the intersection of the times.

The next day, Lu Feng rode his motorcycle and went out to look for a house. Most of the buildings were occupied by workers; although, there were only a few. It was rare for him to be experience leisure for a few days, so he decided to walk around the city.

Lu Feng was unaware of the fact that the local business community had already heard of Lu Feng's name due to Ren Qianbo. A person who dared to rent a sugar factory with a little over 200,000 dollars and fight with Ren Qianbo was either a madman or a genius, no doubt.

In the past two days, he had become a hot topic. Now that there was no Internet, Lu Feng would definitely be the first on the local topic list.

Gao Zhiwei was also at a loss. Initially, he could have signed a few contracts with the general agency for a few days, but now he was upset.

He hadn't slept well for the past two days, so Gao Zhiwei understood very well that choices often mattered more than hard work. Should he give up his current position and hang out with Lu Feng?

Everyone had their fair share of troubles. He Yanli was busy making up her face, Zhang Yali was busy getting divorced, Datou was busy registering the company, and Han Dong was busy collecting the list of suppliers.

Lu Feng found a nice house with a bedroom and a living room. There was a refrigerator, TV, and a sofa. It was much better than the place they currently resided in.

The trio moved over to the new apartment the following afternoon. Jiang Xiaoyan was a little reluctant for leaving. She stayed here for four years and did not say her farewell to anyone when she left.

Of course, there would not be too much nostalgia. The new house was covered with tiles, and the decoration was great. The furniture and the appliances were a cherry on top. Duo Duo went into the new apartment and ran around barefoot, feeling ineffably happy.

Jiang Xiaoyan's face was also full of smiles. She sized up the house and said, “It's a lot better to stick to porcelain crockery. The kitchen is good, it's good everywhere. With a refrigerator, there's no need to worry about the leftovers."

"You can enjoy whatever you spend!" Lu Feng shouted, delighted with their reactions.

"Just one bed?" When Jiang Xiaoyan entered the bedroom, she found a large double bed.

Lu Feng walked forward and whispered, "Then Duo Duo sleeps on the sofa."

"What are you talking about? You sleep on the sofa!" Jiang Xiaoyan turned to look at the bathroom.

Lu Feng leaned against the door frame and watched the mother and daughter chatting. Her heart ached the most when she spent money, and when she lived to the fullest, she was the cheeriest.

Looking at Jiang Xiaoyan and Duo Duo, he had an intense rush of feelings. At first, they were truly pitiful. Jiang Xiaoyan yet did not realize the amount of hardship she would have suffered without him.

But now, he felt that she was a little cutie! x-----x-----x----- x-----x-----x-----x-----x-----x----- x-----x-----x----- x-----x-----x-----x-----x-----x-----x

The Qixi Festival is based on a romantic legend of a weaver girl Zhinü (Chinese: 女) and a cowherd Niulang (Chinese: 牛郎). Because of this legend, the Qixi Festival has a great romantic meaning, especially to young girls. The celebration is one of giving gifts to romantic partners or having a romantic date.
