Extraordinary Soldier King in the City-Chapter 567: It’s You!

Perhaps to prevent rain, a plastic canopy had been set up above the stove.

This was Liu Lili’s kitchen, quite rudimentary.

At that time, a woman wearing an apron was busy in that simple kitchen.

Judging by her appearance, she bore some resemblance to Liu Lili, and must surely have been Liu Lili’s mother.

Hearing the sound of the door, the woman turned her head, glanced toward the courtyard gate, and saw Liu Lili and Chen Feng.

This made the woman pause for a moment, then she hurriedly came forward with a spatula in her hand.

"Lili, you’re back!"

The woman said to Liu Lili with a smile.

Then, she turned her head toward Chen Feng standing next to Liu Lili.

Seeing this, Chen Feng quickly greeted her with a smile, "Hello, Auntie!"

"Hello, hello!"

Liu’s mother nodded with a smile, then turned to Liu Lili, smilingly asking, "This must be the esteemed guest you mentioned?"

"Yes, Mom, his name is Chen Feng. He was a great help with my promotion. Without him, your daughter wouldn’t have secured the position of Vice Director!"

Liu Lili said with a smile.

"Really? Then he’s a great benefactor to our whole family!"

Liu’s mother said, turning to Chen Feng with a grateful expression, "On behalf of my daughter, on behalf of our entire family, thank you!"

"Auntie, you don’t have to be so polite. Your daughter and I are friends, and besides, it was just a small effort, nothing worth mentioning!"

Chen Feng waved his hand, smiling as he spoke.

"You’re really too modest, Mr. Chen. I really don’t know how to thank you enough!"

Liu’s mother said very excitedly.

"There’s no need, Auntie. It was something I ought to do, and please, just call me Chen Feng, or Xiaofeng!"

Chen Feng shook his head and responded with a smile.

"Alright, alright!"

Liu’s mother nodded happily, then turned to Liu Lili, "Lili, hurry and have Xiaofeng come inside and sit. Don’t forget to pour Xiaofeng a cup of tea first. I still have one last dish to finish, and then we can start dinner!"

"Okay, sure!"

Liu Lili nodded obediently, then turned to Chen Feng and said, "Let’s go!"

Chen Feng nodded, and followed Liu Lili into the only small bungalow in the courtyard.

Upon entering the bungalow, they were in the living room.

The living room’s furnishings were very simple.

Two worn-out sofas, a coffee table, and an old, outdated back-projection television.

Further inside the living room were two small bedrooms.

Presumably, these were where Liu Lili, her sister, and her parents lived.

After sitting down on the living room sofas, Liu Lili poured Chen Feng a cup of tea, and then took a seat next to him on another sofa.

At this moment, Liu Lili seemed much more relaxed in front of Chen Feng, and the two chatted casually like normal friends.

Soon after, Liu’s mother called them to eat.

The dining area was still in the living room.

Liu’s mother set up a large round table in the living room and laid out all the meticulously cooked dishes, filling the entire table.

Although it wasn’t anything exotic, just some homely dishes,

the aroma was enticing, clearly showcasing that Liu’s mother was quite a good cook.

After they sat down at the table, Chen Feng noticed only three sets of bowls and chopsticks. Looking up at Liu’s mother, he asked curiously, "Auntie, is it just the three of us eating? Shouldn’t we wait for Uncle and the others?"

"En, your uncle is not feeling well and is still sleeping. No worries, let’s eat first, and when he wakes up, I’ll reheat his food!"

Liu’s mother nodded, smiling as she spoke.

"Mom, is Qianqian not coming back for lunch either?"

Liu Lili looked at Liu’s mother, her face filled with confusion.

The Qianqian she was referring to was her sister, who was still in college.

"She did call to say she’d be back, but she hasn’t come through the door yet. No worries, let’s not bother about her and eat first!"

Liu’s mother pointed to the food, smiling at Chen Feng and Liu Lili.

Upon hearing this, Chen Feng and Liu Lili exchanged glances, nodded, and then prepared to start eating.

"Bang bang bang!"

At that moment, someone knocked on the courtyard gate.

Hearing the noise, both Chen Feng and Liu Lili were startled.

"It must be Qianqian, probably forgot her keys again. No worries, you guys keep eating, I’ll go let her in!"

Saying so, Liu’s mother stood up and turned to walk towards the courtyard gate.

"Mom, I’ll go too. I haven’t seen Qianqian in several days, and I really miss her!"

Liu Lili said with a smile, quickly getting up to follow her. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓

Seeing this, Chen Feng naturally felt awkward about eating alone, so he set down his chopsticks and turned his head to look out into the courtyard.

From his position, he could see the courtyard gate through the window perfectly.

Liu Lili and her mother reached the courtyard gate and opened it.

Immediately after, two figures entered the courtyard, a man and a woman.

The man was dressed in a white suit, had passable looks, and seemed very young, being just over twenty.

Given his attire and the branded watch on his wrist, he probably was a second-generation wealthy individual.

The woman, also around twenty, was wearing a floral dress. Her delicate, pretty face, watery eyes, red lips, white teeth, smooth skin, long black hair over her shoulders, and straight long legs, she was undoubtedly a beauty.

If nothing was out of the ordinary, she should be Liu Lili’s sister.

However, when Chen Feng saw her face clearly, he felt she looked familiar, as though he had seen her somewhere before, but he couldn’t recall where at the moment.

So, Chen Feng did not dwell on it.

Since Chen Feng was still inside, the four of them didn’t chat in the courtyard and directly went into the house.

Seeing this, Chen Feng stood up and nodded at the couple as a form of courtesy.

Liu Lili walked straight up to Chen Feng and smilingly started to introduce, "Qianqian, let me introduce him, this is Chen Feng, he’s the one who helped me..."

However, Liu Lili couldn’t finish her sentence.

The girl, to be precise, Liu Lili’s sister Liu Qianqian,

stared at Chen Feng, and her whole being suddenly froze.

Then, with wide eyes, she pointed at Chen Feng and asked in shock, "It’s you! How are you here?"

Upon her exclamation, everyone in the room was startled, including Chen Feng.

"Do you know me?"

Chen Feng furrowed his brows, puzzled.

Although he initially felt that Liu Qianqian looked familiar, he couldn’t remember where he had seen her, so he was hesitant to claim any acquaintance.

But seeing the level of surprise on Liu Qianqian’s face, it was clear she had seen him before.

Where had they met?

The more Chen Feng thought about it, the more puzzled he became.

"Did you forget me so quickly?"

Seeing Chen Feng had not recognized her, Liu Qianqian bit her silver teeth, looked at him with a grievance and said.
