After separating from Chen Feng, Yu Xiaohui and Lou Xiaojiao walked towards the Lakefront of East Lake.
"Xiao Hui, it seems like Chen Feng really doesn't have any interest in you. But, honestly, did nothing happen between the two of you that night?"
Lou Xiaojiao still couldn't quite believe that nothing had occurred between them that night.
"I've said it several times already. Nothing happened. Otherwise, do you think he'd have this attitude today?"
Yu Xiaohui denied it with some helplessness. What she said wasn't false, but she hadn't completely told the truth either. Nothing happened between her and Chen Feng that night, but the following morning, they almost did something.
She hadn't shared this with Lou Xiaojiao, because she felt that she and Lou Xiaojiao were different. Lou Xiaojiao had engaged in an extramarital affair. Even if she had cheated while separated from her husband, it would be another story. But the fact was, she hadn't cheated.
After all, she and Chen Feng hadn't taken the final step, so it couldn't be considered as cheating.
Admitting to an affair would be too unjust.
So, she denied it confidently now.
"Then why did you admit it so openly to your husband at that time?"
"Wasn't I just trying to piss him off? He could make me wear a green hat every day, but I couldn't make him wear one even once?"
"If you didn't really get with Chen Feng, then you're missing out. I think Chen Feng looks robust, he should be quite good in that aspect. Besides, he's also quite handsome."
Lou Xiaojiao, being a seasoned tease, always spoke straightforwardly. Even though Yu Xiaohui had long been accustomed to it, hearing it now made her think back to when she saw Chen Feng in the nude, and except for a little tummy, his physical condition was really not bad. She couldn't help but blush and her heart pounded.
"Hehe, why are you blushing? Did you actually see Chen Feng's whole body? Did you take off all his clothes while he was drunk that night? I really underestimated you."
Lou Xiaojiao looked at her with a probing expression.
"Are you also into him?" Yu Xiaohui rolled her eyes, "I think you should give up on that thought."
Lou Xiaojiao curled her lips, "I didn't have that thought initially. But now that you mention it, I think I could. After all, I'm sort of single now, he's single too, I could try dating him."
"Dream on, it's unlikely Chen Feng would be interested in you."
The two had been friends for over a decade, so they spoke their minds without reservation.
"You never know. He didn't fancy you, maybe he'll like me." Lou Xiaojiao teased on purpose.
Yu Xiaohui rolled her eyes again, wanting to say that you just lost a lover, your husband might also face a severe sentence, with your reputation for bringing misfortune to men, other men would think twice. Not to mention, you're not that pretty, and Chen Feng isn't short on money.
But such words would be too hurtful, so Yu Xiaohui held back.
"Alright, I support you in trying. See if Chen Feng pays attention to you?" Yu Xiaohui didn't argue, but rather teased her.
Lou Xiaojiao's lips twitched slightly, eyes gleaming, she reached out to hold Yu Xiaohui's shoulder, and said with a chuckle, "How about this, let's both try. Since we managed to get him drunk once, we can do it again. Then we'll both try him."
Yu Xiaohui's eyes widened instantly, and then she pushed her away in annoyance, "You're such a rogue woman. How could you even say that?"
Yu Xiaohui was quite upset at this moment, because she didn't expect Lou Xiaojiao would actually covet the man she was interested in. Although nothing real had happened between her and Chen Feng, if one scrutinizes it, their relationship was already pretty intimate that morning.
"Aren't I helping you? Two heads are better than one," Lou Xiaojiao grinned and tried to hold her shoulder again.
Yu Xiaohui said, "You seem to be in a good mood now, it looks like you're getting over it."
Lou Xiaojiao was taken aback, then smiled wryly, "I'm just finding joy amidst the pain. The man I loved is dead, and the man I hate is about to vanish. Does this mean I won't find a man forever? That's impossible. And since Chen Feng seems not to be into you, why not let me try? Or both of us try. Anyway, we've been married, had kids, really being with Chen Feng wouldn't be a loss."
Yu Xiaohui thought, it's only been a few days since the man you loved died? You're already planning to find a new love.
Having known her for more than a decade, Yu Xiaohui suddenly realized she didn't understand Lou Xiaojiao's perspective on relationships at all.
Before, seeing her so down, she thought she was deeply in love with Zhang Ming.
But now, within just a few days, she's thinking about getting together with Chen Feng. Yu Xiaohui felt her own emotional adjustment capability fall far short.
...
After parting ways with the two women, Chen Feng didn't have anything to do, nor did he go to the company, he just continued to stay at home.
Around five in the afternoon, Chen Feng received a call from Yu Xiaohui, inviting him and his girlfriend to dinner at Xiu State Restaurant; they had already booked a private room.
Xiu State Restaurant is quite well-known and rated highly locally in Xiu Zhou, and business is always good.
But relatively speaking, in terms of class, it slightly falls short of Fuman Building. Because even a meal at Fuman Building can easily cost thousands, tens of thousands even, it's quite normal.
Whereas, Xiu State Restaurant tends to cater to the masses, usually costing a few hundred per meal.
Of course, whether it's Lou Xiaojiao or Yu Xiaohui, both are wealthy ladies, and if they're hosting, it's definitely over a few hundred.
Chen Feng knew the two wouldn't rest until they saw his girlfriend in person, so this time he didn't hesitate and gladly agreed, only mentioning that his girlfriend hadn't finished work yet, but would head over as soon as she did.
The two ladies weren't in a rush, saying they had booked the private dining room for six o'clock, meaning they still had an hour.
Chen Feng agreed to meet them promptly at six.
Around five-thirty, Wu Mengting and Sun Xiaorui returned to the villa. Chen Feng informed them about the two female classmates and asked who would like to join him for the dinner.
Sun Xiaorui immediately said, "I better not go, since I'm not from Lu City, let Mengting go instead."
Wu Mengting didn't object, nodding with a smile, "Alright, I'll go then."
Chen Feng had initially planned to take Wu Mengting, as Sun Xiaorui noted she was also from Lu City. Chen Feng asked just to consider Sun Xiaorui's feelings.
Once the choice was made, Wu Mengting immediately went upstairs to do her makeup and change clothes.
Sun Xiaorui went to the kitchen to heat up some food, preparing for dinner.
Chen Feng followed her, laughing and asking about some things at her company today, chatting for over ten minutes until Wu Mengting was ready.
"Brother, are your two classmates pretty?"
Sitting in the car, Wu Mengting asked with a playful smile.
Chen Feng, with a clear conscience, answered truthfully, "They're alright."
"They must be married, right?" Wu Mengting asked again.
Chen Feng glanced at her and said, "Yes, both have two kids."
Indeed, this wasn't a lie. Hearing this, Wu Mengting smiled and changed the subject, "Since they're here in Xiu Zhou, you should entertain them properly."
"I don't have the time. After dining with them tonight, I won't meet them again. Later, I need you to cover for me, say the company's really busy and I have to work."
