After my divorce, I started to have good luck

Chapter 1236 646: Never Expected This_2

Wu Mengting listened and her lively eyes couldn't help but dart around. She didn't ask anything further and pulled Zhao Xiaolan to the kitchen to start preparing dinner.Chen Feng followed behind, entering his own house directly and went to the bedroom extension at the back. He took a refreshing shower and then picked up his phone to check the unread messages that had come in earlier.

Guo Mengyao, Lin Yujiao, Fang Xiaoyue, and even Wang Fang were among several women who had sent him messages.

Guo Mengyao asked if he wanted to have supper together tonight, which was undoubtedly a very obvious hint. Chen Feng originally didn't want to reply, but seeing her pitiful, he eventually replied with a "Not going."

Lin Yujiao asked when he would be back, and Chen Feng replied saying it'd be a few days.

Fang Xiaoyue asked if he had time tonight, to which Chen Feng replied "Busy."

Wang Fang complained to him that her husband saw him driving her home in a Cayenne, suspecting her suspiciously.

Chen Feng looked at it once but didn't reply.

Additionally, Jin Xinyan left a message asking when he was planning to head to Shen City for the Zhao Shengsheng headquarters, and Chen Feng replied tomorrow, specific time yet to be determined.

Other routine messages from women came through, but Chen Feng didn't reply after reading them.

Finally, Chen Feng proactively sent a WeChat message to Sun Xiaorui, asking if she had returned to the hotel.

Sun Xiaorui replied almost instantly, saying she was already back and had just finished showering.

Thinking it over, Chen Feng asked her if she wanted to come to his place as a guest to formally meet his parents.

Sun Xiaorui clearly hesitated for quite a while before replying: "Isn't Tingting already at your home? What would I be doing there? How do you introduce me?"

Chen Feng replied: "Just say you're my secretary now, how about it?"

"Better not. I don't want Tingting to misunderstand."

Seeing her say that, Chen Feng didn't press further: "Alright then, as long as you don't feel aggrieved."

"I don't feel aggrieved, because I never expected anything from the start."

Sun Xiaorui's attitude pleased Chen Feng, making him smile inadvertently. He did imply a bit of testing in his words earlier.

If Sun Xiaorui had immediately agreed and said she wanted to visit his home, she would definitely lose points in Chen Feng's eyes.

Amongst all these women, indeed Sun Xiaorui remains the most considerate and proper one.

If all his other women were as sensible and understanding as Sun Xiaorui, he wouldn't have to exert so much effort.

...

In an elegantly serene tea room, Guo Mengyao, Fang Xiaoyue, and Cheng Yuhuan sat together.

Originally, Guo Mengyao wanted to head straight home but was held back by Cheng Yuhuan who said there was something to discuss.

Thus, the two headed to this privately reserved residential tea room, a location Fang Xiaoyue had taken Guo Mengyao to before. From the outside, it looks like an ordinary residence, but inside it's decorated into separate tea rooms available for monthly or yearly lease — totaling five rooms, with great privacy.

The last time Guo Mengyao was brought here by Fang Xiaoyue, she found it interesting and rented a tea room herself for a year. It suits occasions like this, where she can bring people over to chat without external disturbance.

On the way, Fang Xiaoyue contacted Guo Mengyao asking where she was, and Guo Mengyao explained, leading to Fang Xiaoyue joining in as well.

Guo Mengyao couldn't refuse, thus agreeing.

Once settled, with tea brewed, the trio sat down. Guo Mengyao took the initiative to ask Cheng Yuhuan, "What is it you wanted to discuss with me? You can speak now, right?"

Cheng Yuhuan glanced at the curious looking Fang Xiaoyue, and without hesitation, said, "I have a stash of five million that I plan to invest in a project. Do you have any good project suggestions?"

Upon hearing this, Guo Mengyao showed no reaction, but Fang Xiaoyue couldn't help but comment sourly: "Indeed, doing well isn't as good as marrying well. Your stash is what us ordinary folks strive their whole lives for."

Cheng Yuhuan retorted with a laugh: "You're envious of me, but I'm envious of you. No matter what, you have high social status, secured salary, never a worry for the rest of your life."

Fang Xiaoyue jokingly proposed: "Then how about we swap, can we?"

Cheng Yuhuan replied with a smile: "Sure."

"Xiao Yue, stop interrupting, okay? We're discussing serious matters." Guo Mengyao frowned.

"Got it, I won't speak further, continue." Fang Xiaoyue immediately shut up.

Only then did Guo Mengyao say: "You know the current economic environment too. The traditional industries struggle to make money now. I don't have a good project introduction for you at the moment. However, isn't our class monitor also looking for projects? You might talk to him."

Cheng Yuhuan immediately shook her head: "Better not, else I'd end up being duped and helping him count the money. The class monitor is no longer the same as before. Now, he seems like a big talker, profiting off blockchain and buying a house worth over twenty million in full in Beijing, which may be true, yet he gives off an erratic, unstable feeling."

Fang Xiaoyue nodded in agreement: "That's right. Initially, I didn't overthink, accepting whatever he said. But the more he says, the more I feel he's not grounded unlike Chen Feng."

Cheng Yuhuan teased: "Oh my, you're interested in Chen Feng too?"

Fang Xiaoyue retorted: "What do you mean, 'too'? Are you interested in Chen Feng as well?"

"No way, I have a husband." Cheng Yuhuan countered before explaining, "I was talking about Zhao Zixuan — she is also interested in Chen Feng. If both of you are also interested, then, hoho, the competition pressure is pretty intense."

At the end, Cheng Yuhuan looked at the two with a mischievous smile.

Guo Mengyao frowned and asked: "How do you know Zhao Zixuan is interested in Chen Feng? This shouldn't be possible, right? Doesn't she know Chen Feng has been married and divorced?"

Cheng Yuhuan laughed: "Mengyao, looks like you really have something going with Chen Feng, judging by how nervous you seem."

Guo Mengyao retorted, "I do have something with him, so what? We're both unmarried now, mutual willingness, having something going is perfectly normal."

Cheng Yuhuan exclaimed, visibly startled: "Damn! You really got together with Chen Feng!"

Guo Mengyao frowned: "Why, is that not allowed?"

Cheng Yuhuan shook her head with a bitter smile: "Previously, I was half-believing it, thinking your achievements now shouldn't align with a relationship with Chen Feng, but surprisingly, truly surprisingly."

Guo Mengyao asked: "You think Chen Feng isn't suitable for me?"

Cheng Yuhuan replied: "Not at all, he fits you well above standards. I just feel that with your assets over a billion, you shouldn't act impulsively in feelings."

Guo Mengyao laughed: "What billion plus assets? The billion is my entire company's overall valuation. Upon cashing out, it'd be merely a few billion, possibly even less, and I occupy just the major shares with two other shareholders. Ultimately, I'd have just millions for myself. While Chen Feng has at least over a hundred million cash on hand, he's far more affluent than I am now."
