Wen Zhouyuan: "If it's a boy, he's too delicate, even more delicate than my daughter was when she was born."
Feng Feng had no experience with childbirth. She couldn't tell how a newborn looked. Their eyes weren't even open, so how could one tell if they were delicate or not?
However, speaking of children, Feng Feng casually asked him a few questions, "When was your daughter born?"
"June 4th, at eight in the evening," Wen Zhouyuan replied. "Bai Zhi's water broke in the afternoon, so I took leave to go to the hospital."
Feng Feng: "Pregnancy is quite painful. Women have a difficult time."
Wen Zhouyuan: "Yes, every mother is great."
Feng Feng didn't say anything, but Wen Zhouyuan suddenly asked her, "Have you considered having children?"
Feng Feng was caught off guard. This was a very distant question for her. She hadn't even considered dating, let alone children...
"I haven't thought about it," Feng Feng said. "It's not part of my life plan at the moment."
Just then, Lan Lan sent a few flight options, asking Feng Feng to choose a date when they were all free.
Feng Feng and Lan Lan agreed on a date and planned to book tickets.
Wen Zhouyuan said to her, "I'll accompany you." Feng Feng paused her actions. "Can I?"
Wen Zhouyuan: "Haven't you been feeling better these past few days? It's not good to stay in Nanjiang all the time. A change of environment might do you good, just to relax."
Feng Feng considered it. Wen Zhouyuan's health had indeed improved these past few days, and bringing one more person along wasn't a big deal. So, she booked a ticket for Wen Zhouyuan as well.
As for Lin Mei's child's birth, Shen Su and Gu Song were also notified immediately.
Gu Song looked at the photo of the newborn and smiled, "Newborns are so interesting. I have to go and coo at it."
Shen Su saw the video of Xing Zheng holding the baby. His gaze fixed on the phone screen, and for a moment, he felt a pang of envy.
He wasn't someone who liked children; he had even once thought of them as a burden.
But seeing the smile on Xing Zheng's face, he suddenly felt that children could sometimes be healing.
With the birth of the child, as friends, they naturally had to visit.
Shen Su suddenly remembered something and sent a private message to Xing Zheng, [Ask Feng Feng for her flight number.]
Although Xing Zheng hadn't been with them recently, he had heard a lot from Gu Song about Shen Su and Feng Feng's affairs. Shen Su's question made him understand the purpose.
After inquiring with Lin Mei, Xing Zheng sent Feng Feng's flight number to Shen Su.
Shen Su, Gu Song, and Liang Yufeng booked the same flight, but Feng Feng was unaware of this. Shen Su also didn't know that Feng Feng would bring Wen Zhouyuan along when visiting Lin Mei.
In the blink of an eye, the departure day arrived.
Feng Feng and Lan Lan agreed to meet at the airport. Early that morning, Wen Zhouyuan had already prepared breakfast. Feng Feng looked at the sandwiches on the table and said to him, "Aren't you tired? Don't cook before a journey next time."
Wen Zhouyuan said, "It only takes a few minutes, it's fine."
The two sat down to eat breakfast. Feng Feng and Wen Zhouyuan chatted, "Have you packed all your medicine?"
"Yes, I have," Wen Zhouyuan replied. "Don't worry, everything is fine."
Feng Feng booked a car and went to the airport with Wen Zhouyuan. They met Lan Lan near the check-in counter.
As the three were about to check in their luggage, they ran into Shen Su, along with Gu Song and Liang Yufeng beside him.
It wasn't unusual for the three of them to visit Lin Mei and Xing Zheng's child, but the fact that they happened to be on the same flight made the situation much more awkward.
At that moment, Shen Su's gaze swept towards them and landed on Wen Zhouyuan. His narrow, peach-blossom eyes revealed a hint of undisguised sarcasm.
Lan Lan instinctively looked at Feng Feng and Wen Zhouyuan. Fortunately, both of them were calm and were not provoked by this.
Lan Lan stepped forward and grabbed Liang Yufeng's arm, asking him in a low voice, "Why didn't you tell me beforehand that you were on this flight too?"
Liang Yufeng: "I didn't know you were on this flight either."
Lan Lan: "..." That was true. Neither of them had disclosed their flight information, otherwise, they wouldn't have met in such a dramatic fashion.
Feng Feng had no intention of speaking to Shen Su. She pulled Wen Zhouyuan's wrist and said, "Let's go."
Wen Zhouyuan also withdrew his gaze and walked forward with Feng Feng. They went to check in their luggage.
Shen Su's expression was as gloomy as ever. Seeing him like this, Lan Lan knew he was displeased and had every intention of continuing to pester Feng Feng.
Shen Su, being a playboy, had probably never been treated this way before. Feng Feng's actions had challenged his male ego.
Considering Wen Zhouyuan's health, Feng Feng bought business class tickets, with two seats per row. She and Wen Zhouyuan sat next to each other.
Lan Lan sat with Liang Yufeng, leaving Shen Su to sit with Gu Song.
Shen Su and Gu Song's seats were exactly in the same row as Feng Feng and Wen Zhouyuan, separated by an aisle, making them clearly visible to each other.
Wen Zhouyuan sat by the window, Feng Feng by the aisle, and Shen Su also by the aisle. Their distance was very close.
However, after sitting down, Feng Feng did not look towards Shen Su. Instead, she kept talking to Wen Zhouyuan and doing various things for him.
For example, she got a blanket for Wen Zhouyuan from the flight attendant, or took out a thermos from her bag for him... she looked like a devoted wife.
Shen Su found it incredibly glaring and subconsciously compared himself to Wen Zhouyuan.
They had maintained a friends-with-benefits relationship for two years, and he had never received a single word of concern from her.
Her so-called emotional detachment was only directed at him. Wen Zhouyuan was her eternal exception.
Gu Song had also witnessed this scene. He found it somewhat unbelievable. Having interacted with Feng Feng quite a bit before, he thought she was like an emotionless robot, believing she would never care for anyone like this in her life.
But clearly, that wasn't the case. She was incredibly attentive to Wen Zhouyuan.
Looking at Shen Su, his expression was as dark as he had imagined. Gu Song patted Shen Su on the shoulder and advised him, "Stop looking. You're just making yourself miserable."
Unrequited love is one of the most unpleasant things in the world, especially when the other person is showing affection to someone else. It's no different from being tortured by a thousand cuts.
After hearing Gu Song's words, Shen Su temporarily withdrew his gaze and let out a soft, mocking laugh, unsure if he was laughing at Feng Feng or at himself.
The flight time from Nanjiang to Xiangxi was not long, but Wen Zhouyuan was not in good health and fell asleep shortly after takeoff.
Seeing him asleep, Feng Feng adjusted the blanket for him.
Shen Su caught a glimpse of this with his peripheral vision and almost crushed the disposable paper cup in his hand.
Although they were very close, Feng Feng did not speak a single word to Shen Su throughout the entire flight. Shen Su's jealousy simmered, but he remained silent.
When the plane began its descent, Feng Feng woke Wen Zhouyuan up. Wen Zhouyuan got up and went to the restroom.
Seeing this, Shen Su immediately followed him.
The restroom could only be used by one person, so Shen Su had to wait outside for Wen Zhouyuan to come out.
