Chapter 248 - You Won’t Be Alone Anymore (2)

"It must be nice to be greeted by the sun like this every morning. Thank you for bringing me here, Xiao Feng. I couldn\'t think of a better way to spend time with you in a place like this." She told Lu Qingfeng as they walked by the side of the blue lake.

From where they were standing, they could see a couple of guests showing up at the dining area of the inn to enjoy their breakfast and the scenery offered to them.

"As long as you are satisfied, then I\'m glad." Lu Qingfeng replied. He was holding a closed parasol in his left hand, while the other held Su Xiaofei\'s hand.

Su Xiaofei held onto his hand and walked slowly next to him, enjoying the light breeze that passed. Breathing in the countryside\'s fresh air, listening to the sounds of birds and insects made her mind very peaceful.

At the beginning of the month, they were both so busy with their responsibilities at school and work that they barely had time to enjoy each other\'s company like this. The weight Su Xiaofei had gained since her rebirth, that Lu Qingfeng had slowly nurtured, was slowly disappearing due to her hectic schedule.

"Ah, this feels so comfortable, I almost feel like I don\'t want to return home so soon."

Lu Qingfeng smiled and glanced at the treeline ahead of them.

"Then should we come back here once we have time off from work?" He suggested, knowing that such a possibility would be far from now, given how busy they would become once they return to Qiying City.

"Okay, when that time comes, you would already be CEO Lu. This poor manager will just accompany you then."

"You are only saying that so I could pay the tab for you. Since when did you become so stingy when it comes to money, Xiaofei?"

Su Xiaofei scoffed at that, then a thought crossed her mind.

"Hey, Xiao Feng. If you are going to choose only one, would it be love or money?"

In her past life, she had been blinded by her love for Mo Yuchen that she had willingly thrown away and ignored other important aspects of her life.

The young man furrowed her brows, wondering what Su Xiaofei was up to again.

When he didn\'t say anything in response, Su Xiaofei continued.

"Assuming I can\'t have both, love and money, and I chose money, would that make me a gold digger? Money minded? Shallow?" She questioned him.

"Of course not." Lu Qingfeng was quick to answer. "Have you met poor people? If love was all you needed to be happy in life, then the poor would be the happiest, most content people on the planet."

"Oh! It\'s good to know that I\'m not the only one who thought like this." Su Xiaofei seemed pleased with his answer. Love was not all sweet and rosy and filled with happiness ever after. If she could speak to her former self, she would say \'Wake up and smell the coffee. One has to differentiate between fantasy and reality!\'

"Money makes the world go round." Lu Qingfeng continued. "It\'s year 20xx, you are madly in love with your partner but you have no food to eat. What are you going to do? Beg for food or walk into a grocery shop and buy food with love?"

"Have you ever heard of The World\'s Most Loving Couple? No. How about the World\'s Richest? Bet you have. Would you rather cry in a Porsche or on a bicycle? I do believe love is important. Don\'t ever think that it\'s not. But don\'t think for a second that you can survive in this century, in this world, only in love with zero money."

"That makes sense." Su Xiaofei nodded. "Is that why you are so eager to earn so much money at a young age?"

Lu Qingfeng was around twelve when he started showing interest in investing and learning the ways of their family business. Despite coming from an affluent family, he couldn\'t be seen spending lavishly and dressed in expensive luxurious clothes like other young masters were.

In his first life, he was utterly defeated by Mo Yuchen because the older man had a lot of money and influence compared to him. In his second life, while he had billions under his name, all of it was for nothing because he lost Su Xiaofei yet again.

"I\'m merely preparing for the future. I can\'t allow others to look down on my wife because of me. I can\'t have her worrying about money, when I should be the one providing for her, right?"

"But women these days can provide for themselves too. Would that mean we can do the same for our husbands?" Su Xiaofei challenged him.

"That\'s fine too. Becoming financially independent is not just a task for men. Basically, everyone, despite their genders, must be able to become financially independent. For married women, being financially independent means having a spare lifeboat in the form of their own income, which can be used to help their families during an economic crisis or ease their husbands\' financial burden."

As they reached the end of the treeline, they saw a group of people at the restricted part of the inn. Su Xiaofei\'s eyes narrowed when she saw a familiar face in the crowd.

\'Dear Mother, we meet again.\'
