Chapter 398: Do you also wish for me to find a companion?
Si Weimin didn’t make it too explicit, but Lin Fengying could discern the rejection concealed within his words.
Lin Fengying, embarrassed and unwilling to concede, stiffened her expression before eventually saying: "Weimin, I mean nothing else by this, I just want to take care of you and Xiaohui. We are getting on in age, why should we care what others think? Besides, as long as you call me by my name from now on, we would seem like a family of three in the eyes of others. Who would dare gossip about it?"
Back when they were together, Si Weimin never called her ’Sister-in-law’ in private. He always called her by her name.
Si Weimin’s face grew gloomy. He glanced unconsciously towards Si Xiaohui’s bedroom. Seeing the door shut, he said, "Things are not as they were before. If you feel lonely, seek a companion. Xiaohui mentioned to me once, Boyi and Xiaochen have no objection to you finding a companion. I believe it’s not a bad idea."
Regardless of their past relationship, Si Weimin now found Lin Fengying undesirable.
Yuan Caizhen was beautiful, virtuous, and educated. His friends and business partners admired him for having such a wife. It was something he took pride in. If he were seen with Lin Fengying, he would be ridiculed and he could not stand it.
Based on appearance alone, nobody would question if someone said there was a generational gap between him and Lin Fengying.
"So you also want me to find a companion?" Lin Fengying’s eyes reddened instantly. Being rejected to her face not only made her feel upset but also furious and embarrassed. She stood up and said: "Fine, introduce me to a companion then. Show me who is suitable for me. As long as they don’t despise me, I will accept."
