In the past, Gao Feng often did not finish spending the money that his elders had given him and could even save some of it. But ever since he started dating, Gao Feng no longer had any excess from whatever allowance his elders gave him. In fact, whatever he had saved up in the past was also almost all gone!

If Gao Feng had not been in a tight spot and had directly asked Fang Fang for money, Fang Fang would never have found out that her son had already started dating.

Gao Feng was never a spendthrift who splurged on materialistic goods. It was truly rare for her son to have not enough money to spend and even had to ask for money from her. Initially, Fang Fang only thought that this was a fresh and rare situation.

All the money that Gao Yan earned had always been managed by Fang Fang, so Fang Fang was the finance minister of the Gao family. When her son said that he had not enough money, Fang Fang handed five thousand yuan over to Gao Feng without hesitation.

After flattering Fang Fang with a few praises, Gao Feng went back to his room.

After Gao Feng left, Fang Fang finally came to her senses. Her son was no spendthrift. Neither did anyone around him lack money. So why was he was short on money and even had to ask for money from her? If she remembered correctly, the piggy bank in her son’s room was almost filled to the brim. Gao Feng was not the kind of child to ask his elders for money if he still had money on hand.

Could it be that Gao Feng had spent all of that money in his piggy bank?

Fang Fang felt that something was amiss and wanted to talk to her son. But the moment she opened the door, she saw her son lying on his bed with his phone in one hand, calling someone his ‘wife’. At the sound of this word, Fang Fang was so angry she nearly fainted from anger.

It turned out that her son had started dating. That was why he had started spending more and even needed to ask her for money!

Fang Fang was not as cunning as Gao Yan. After learning about the situation, Gao Yan had many more considerations than Fang Fang. Fang Fang purely felt that her son was still young and full of vigor and vitality. There was bound to be situations where the two young people would not be able to resist the temptations when they were together. It would be a disaster if her son hurt some other family’s daughter.

But it seemed a little too serious to let her son pay such a heavy price throughout the rest of his life just because he had done something while he was still young and immature. For her son’s sake, Fang Fang was worried sick.

But Gao Yan thought more deeply than Fang Fang. He had never gotten angry at his son. When other children went to high school, their allowances were slightly more than a thousand yuan at most, and that allowance included money for their meals. What they gave to Gao Yan was around two thousand yuan.

In addition to that piggy bank in Gao Feng’s room that was almost filled to the brim, Gao Yan made some calculations before arriving at the conclusion that his son had spent close to twenty thousand yuan in such a short span of time ever since he had started dating.

He was just a high school student. What kind of relations.h.i.+p was this that he had managed to spend twenty thousand yuan? They had not even been together for a long time. Not even an entire semester. Based on his calculations, his son would have to spend at least fifty to sixty thousand a year just to maintain his relations.h.i.+p!

The Gao family was not in need of this small sum of money. The problem was that Gao Yan could not accept other girls treating his son as a foolish rich boyfriend. This girl was still so young, yet she was already so materialistic and her spending habits were not far off from adults’. Gao Yan laughed while thinking about how ‘promising’ this girl would be once she grew up since this relations.h.i.+p could only be maintained by spending almost a hundred thousand yuan a year!

A hundred thousand yuan worth of relations.h.i.+p funds was nothing in the grand scheme of things in the Gao family. But Gao Yan could not accept how his son had found such a money-loving girlfriend.

Gao Yan knew just the way to deal with teenagers. Besides, his son had originally been a strong character. With such intelligence himself, he did not believe that his son could be too foolish. As a father, he could already sense that there was something wrong with the girlfriend that his son had found. As the party concerned, could his son really not feel anything?

“Gao Feng, have you ever told anyone in school that you’re Gao Yan’s son?” Gao Yan brought this question up at that moment.

Gao Feng’s face was flushed. “Of course not!” How could he do that? When he was younger, he knew that his father was a nouveau riche in the IT industry. Now, he had ‘old money’. Gao Feng did not want to become famous because of Gao Yan. That was why Gao Feng had never been a spendthrift ever since he was a child.

Gao Feng knew that everyone’s att.i.tude toward him would change once he told them that his father was Gao Yan, the CEO of Gao’s Technology Capital. He could not care less about that.

When his father was younger, he had been able to go from nothing to being able to provide his mom with such a good life. When he entered society himself, he would be able to do so too. There was no reason that he would be that different from his father.

“That’s good.” As long as that young lady did not know about the Gao family’s background, he and Fang Fang would not need to interfere. This matter would resolve itself very quickly without their help anyway. If Gao Feng had less pocket money and was not able to spend like he did before, that young lady would not find it entirely unacceptable to continue staying by Gao Feng’s side, even though it was true that she was slightly materialistic.

But of course, if the results were the opposite, that would be even better. If that young lady could not bear with such conditions and wanted to break up with their son, could their son really blame them for giving him a low living allowance? Gao Feng lived a comfortable and easy life. It was because he had a father like that and a mother like Fang Fang that his foundations were strong.

If he had other people as his parents, there would only be the same result when Gao Feng encountered such relations.h.i.+p problems.

“All right, let’s do it like that. It’s actually not too early for you to get into a relations.h.i.+p. If you still don’t get into a relations.h.i.+p now, it really might get too late. I don’t care about anything else. But if your results take a toll because of your relations.h.i.+p, and you upset your mom, you’d better watch out.” Gao Yan patted Gao Feng on his shoulders, indicating the end of their conversation.

Gao Feng heaved a sigh of relief. “Dad, Mom’s already upset. Are you really not forcing me to break up with my girlfriend?” He had thought that his protective dad would do all he could to stop anything that upset his mom. He would not even blink an eye when killing his own son.

Of course, Gao Yan knew what Gao Feng was thinking and smiled meaningfully. “Your mom is my wife, but you’re my only son. If you really have someone you like and are happy about it, I’ll be happy for you too. Your mom has me. Her mood will improve in a few days’ time.”

It was just as well that he would use this opportunity to let Fang Fang understand that no matter how much she loved her son and thought that he was the best child in the world, there would eventually come a day when her son would become someone else’s husband and treat that woman well. When that time came, his mom would eventually be placed behind that woman.
