Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 1458: Chapter 853: Which One Is It Exactly? (2)

Luo Feiyin shook her head: "Not really."

"Not?"

"What I mean is, it’s not like I’m suddenly relieved, it’s just..." Luo Feiyin looked at Ying Nuo with a conflicted expression, "Can I not explain?"

"Of course..." Ying Nuo chuckled, "No, you have to explain!"

Luo Ye was speechless; she wondered why she hadn’t noticed before that Nuonuo could be even more trouble than Qiu’er. Luo Feiyin was looking at her for help, so she rolled her eyes and then laughed: "Nuonuo, why do you insist Sister Fei has to spell it out for you? Can’t you just imagine the situation yourself?

Sister Fei sitting in the car indicates that she likes Brother Kun. So, if she wasn’t immediately relieved, then she must have been excited for a while!"

"You... you guys..." Luo Feiyin looked at the two of them, torn between laughter and tears, wondering why they had to be so blunt.

Indeed, when she learned her date was Li Zejun, her heart started racing. If she was initially attracted to Luo Feng, during their gradual interactions, her emotional scale shifted towards Li Zejun.

The reason for this change was simple. Luo Feng had someone he liked, so he wouldn’t care for her beyond friendship, whereas Li Zejun would always appear to help whenever she went to the town government for errands.

Viewed comparatively, it’s normal for emotional inclinations to shift gradually, especially after Ying Nuo arrived, she became clearer about what she should do.

Men like Luo Feng might never truly leave her thoughts, but she was clear that he didn’t belong to her world. Without self-awareness, she’d only end up hurting herself.

Thus, she could hide her little thoughts quietly and appear openly before him, and as she gradually got acquainted with Li Zejun, the thought crossed her mind.

However, as a girl, she couldn’t just tell him, "I think we’re quite a match, how about we give it a try?"

Unfortunately, Li Zejun was very shy in this regard; every time he helped her, he’d hurriedly say goodbye as if afraid she’d misunderstand him.

Seeing him like that, she was a bit angry, but unexpectedly, the tide turned, and the opportunity was there in front of her!

Jokes and probing should be done in moderation, and seeing Luo Feiyin’s expression made it clear what she was thinking, so Luo Ye and Ying Nuo stopped teasing her and changed the topic to her school life.

Meanwhile, in another car, Li Zejun was sitting on pins and needles.

He liked Luo Feiyin, but the first meeting with his potential future mother-in-law was sharing a car ride, being sized up like livestock — it had him extremely nervous, fearing that something about him might not meet her approval. With that thought, he stood straighter.

Zhu Hongyu clicked her tongue: "Vice Mayor Li, you trained well during military drills; after so long, you can still sit so perfectly. Not bad, really not bad!"

Being commented on like that by Zhu Hongyu, Li Zejun felt even more awkward, unsure where to place his hands and feet as he subconsciously straightened his posture again.

Li Xiaogu, feeling pity for her nephew, smiled at Mrs. Luo: "Sis-in-law, my nephew usually doesn’t talk much. You know, in their line of work, saying less is good; a slip of the tongue might cause trouble, hehe..."

"True, hehe..." Mrs. Luo responded with a dry laugh.

"Auntie, you know about our family situation, right?" Li Zejun couldn’t hold it anymore.

"Yes, I have a general idea."

"What I can assure you is, if I’m with Fei Ying, I’ll treat her well and be filial to you and uncle.

My family might be poor now, but as long as I work hard, I can definitely offer Fei Ying a good life in the future. My parents are also easy-going people.

My sister might not be the most charming personality at times, but she’s kind-hearted, surely she’ll get along with Fei Ying..."

Toward the end, Li Zejun didn’t know what exactly he wanted to say. He just spoke whatever came to his mind, addressing any concerns the Luo family might have.

This made Mrs. Luo’s impression of him better, instantly overlooking any unfavorable aspects, withdrawing her stern gaze, and chuckling: "Xiao Kun, with your words, Auntie can be at ease."

Li Xiaogu secretly sighed in relief; with only one precious daughter in the Luo family, it’d be troublesome for the future if the mother-in-law couldn’t be won over.

"Oh, Xiao Kun, did you get promoted to Mayor?" Only then did Mrs. Luo suddenly realize that she seemed to have heard Zhu Hongyu calling him Vice Mayor earlier.

Li Zejun nodded: "Yes, the appointment hasn’t been finalized yet, it’s just been announced temporarily."

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Luo nodded and didn’t say anything more, but the appreciation in her eyes was clear — evidently, she liked Li Zejun’s honesty.

Taking a sneak peek at her, Li Zejun was also delighted; her attitude showed the Luo family valued character over wealth and status, boosting his confidence significantly.

The two cars stopped one after the other at the alley entrance, with Father Li, Mrs. Li, Li Zexia, and little boy Zhuangzhuang cheerfully welcoming them.

Seeing Li Zexia’s bright white face and vibrant red lips, Ying Nuo stumbled, losing her footing for a moment. Luo Ye grabbed her arm ensuring she regained stability, murmuring: "Oh, goodness, a theater performer, scared me!"

Luo Ye pinched her quietly, forbidding her from speaking further.

Li Zexia’s eyes scanned the faces of the group, her gaze flickered with envy, and she looked at Li Xiaogu: "Aunt, which one is it?"
