Lin Feng observed his mother.

It was not because of her appearance, but because of her current state.

​​ 

From her unconcealed exhaustion, it was obvious that this mother’s work in the day was laborious and tough on her.

Lin Ru lifted her head when she heard the commotion. She looked at Lin Feng with a loving countenance and asked gently,

“You’re here. I heard that you changed the decor of your room and threw away all your cosmetics?”

“Yes, I don’t like them. I’m tired of using them.”

“I see. Well, I’ll take you to the mall some other day and we’ll get you a new set of bedsheets.”

“The colors of the spare set you have are too plain, and it’s from some time back. Both the material and workmanship are rather inferior.”

Lin Feng nodded. He didn’t mind improving his quality of life.

“Yes, anything is fine.”

Lin Ru heaved a sigh of relief when she saw her son nod decisively without much thought. She exchanged looks with Lin Dong.

Clearly, this stark contrast that Lin Feng was exhibiting still had his parents rather worried.

Your parents are the ones who know you best. They know all about some habits you don’t even notice and don’t know about.

Hence, as Lin Feng’s parents, they would definitely be worried, seeing Lin Feng’s behavior today.

But right now, Lin Feng didn’t show any abnormalities, so the two of them could only relax for now.

Lin Feng understood.

He did not take it to heart. Time would prove everything and tell these two people whether he was really normal or feigning it.

“Where’s my sister? Is she not back yet?”

Lin Feng noticed that someone was missing from the table once more.

Hence, this sister whom he had yet to officially meet was once again used as a shield by Lin Feng.

“Her? Speaking of which, I haven’t seen Xue¹ since last night.”

Lin Ru frowned when she heard Lin Dong say that.

“Do you think something happened to Xue?”

Lin Dong’s worry was not without reason, and soon, Lin Ru began to worry as well.

However, she soon returned to her original state.

“Forget it, let’s not bother about her. She doesn’t put much effort into her studies anyway. It’s good for her to get out there and experience the world outside.”

Lin Ru calmly picked up her food. Lin Dong agreed with her.

“It’s normal for girls to be a little crazier and more playful. I just hope that she won’t cause any big trouble.”

Lin Feng raised his brows as he looked at the two people in front of him who were echoing each other. He was quite used to this differential treatment of males and females.

At the dining table, Lin Dong seemed to recall something and said,

“Speaking of which, Xue said that she wanted to change… what was it that she wanted to change?”

“To hell with her. At her young age, she has no skills yet she’s quite capable at spending money. She wants this and that, why doesn’t she say she wants the stars in the sky?”

Lin Ru rejected him directly, her tone was very strict.

“Do you think it’s easy for me to earn some money out there? I’m providing for all of you. In the end, I don’t hear thanks and praises. Instead, I’m getting so many demands.”

“My dear wife, cool down. The child is insensible.”

“She’s already 17 years old and about to go to university, still young? Our Feng’er¹ is still the best. He’s sensible and obedient.”

Lin Feng was stunned. Why has it got something to do with me now?

“Yes, we don’t have to worry about Feng’er. Honey, let me tell you, Feng’er even seems to be planning to sell all of his cosmetics.”

“Really? Feng’er, are you short of money?”

Lin Ru immediately took out her wallet and handed a few large bills to Lin Feng.

“No, no, no. I just feel that those things are no longer of use. Instead of leaving them there, I may as well sell them for some money.”

Lin Feng waved his hand and did not move to accept the bills.

He really didn’t think too much about it. How would he know why his predecessor bought so many cosmetics when he clearly couldn’t use them?

While tidying up, Lin Feng found that many of the cosmetics were still unopened. And except for a few frequently used ones, most of them had only been used once or twice.

All of this could be put to good use and exchanged for some common currency for a rainy day.

“I see. Since that’s the case, take this money. Take it that Mom bought them from you for Dad.”

“Hey, just in time. Thank you, dear, thank you, son. I haven’t changed my cosmetics in a long time. This time, it’s all thanks to my son.”

Hehe, Lin Feng maintained his smile as he received the allowance from his mother under the duo’s gazes.

Looking at the thick wad of cash in his hand, for a moment, Lin Feng felt that this was pretty good.

But Lin Feng soon threw that thought to the back of his mind. How could a man rely on a woman? I have to be independent and achieve my own career.

At that thought, Lin Feng recalled the memories regarding those cosmetics. He calculated the total price and returned the extra amount to his mother.

“You gave me too much, there’s no need for this much.”

“Seriously, just take it when Mom gives it to you.”

Lin Ru looked at her precious son in gratification. She met eyes with Lin Dong and said with agitation, “Look at this child. He’s really too sensible, unlike his sister, I don’t even know where she’s gone all day.

“Occasionally, when I run into her, her tone would be so foul. Her attitude only gets better when she needs something from me…”

Very quickly, after praising Lin Feng, Lin Ru began to criticize Lin Xue again.

After dinner, Lin Feng vividly understood the differential treatment between a daughter and a son.

The boys at home had to be doted on and cared for like princesses, while daughters were raised like they weren’t the biological child of their parents.
