After my divorce, I started to have good luck
Chapter 1384 718: What Exactly Does She See in Me?_2
With Chen Feng's explanation, that bit of suspicion that had popped up in Wu Mengting's mind earlier finally faded away.
Same old reasoning: although Zhou Qianru was pretty and classy these days, she was still several years older than Chen Feng. Chen Feng was not short of women; it shouldn't be to the extent that he'd have any improper designs on her.
Besides, even if Chen Feng did fancy Zhou Qianru, that didn't mean Zhou Qianru would necessarily fancy him back.
The three of them watched TV for a while. Just as Chen Feng was about to go upstairs, he received a WeChat message from Sun Yanhong.
He casually tapped it open.
[How did my sponge cake taste? If you still want some, I've got two more here, I'll send them over to you together.]
Chen Feng originally hadn't planned to reply, but a sudden mischievous streak came over him, and he typed back: [Sure, I'll come over later to get them.]
Over on Sun Yanhong's side, she actually hadn't held out much hope. After all, the last few times she'd messaged Chen Feng, he basically hadn't replied. This time she was just probing out of habit.
She hadn't expected to actually receive Chen Feng's reply. She was instantly overjoyed, fingers flying as she replied in a second: [Okay, I'll be at home waiting for you.]
Chen Feng shook his head with a smile and handed the phone over to the two women for them to see.
The two women both leaned over to look at Chen Feng's phone. After reading it, they were both a little speechless, then they looked at Chen Feng in unison.
Wu Mengting asked, "You're going to go get the sponge cake? Aren't you just giving her unrealistic hope like this?"
Chen Feng smiled and said, "Of course I'm not the one going to get it, you two are. While you're picking up the cake, it also counts as cutting off some of her unrealistic fantasies."
"The two of us are going?" Wu Mengting couldn't help widening her eyes.
Sun Xiaorui was also full of surprise, and said quietly, "Isn't it a bit inappropriate for us to go?"
"You two going is the most appropriate. It's basically clearly telling her that I, Chen Feng, am not short of women, and there's no way I'd be into an old, flirtatious, lusty woman like her."
Hearing Chen Feng say that, once Wu Mengting thought about it, she found it made sense, so she nodded and said, "Alright, then we'll go. If necessary, I'll spell it out to her directly, tell her not to pester you anymore in the future."
At that, Chen Feng immediately stopped her: "Don't go saying things to her recklessly. She's not someone who's easy to talk to, and she's quite loaded. If you lay everything bare with her, she might fly into a shame-turned-anger fit and do something irrational, which would backfire instead. Just go get the sponge cake and come back, don't talk too much with her. If I send you two over, she should understand what I mean."
Wu Mengting frowned and hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Alright then. We'll go over now."
Wu Mengting was not someone who dragged things out. As soon as she finished speaking, she stood up and took Sun Xiaorui out the door to head to the D08 villa where Sun Yanhong lived.
Seeing her with that "legitimate girlfriend going to deal with the mistress" stance, Chen Feng couldn't help feeling a bit regretful.
He was afraid that Wu Mengting might end up angering this lady-boss Yanhong.
After thinking it over, Chen Feng followed along as well, but he didn't follow too closely. He only stopped and stood about fifty or sixty meters away, watching from afar, when he saw Wu Mengting reach the gate of the D08 villa.
Over on Wu Mengting's side, she arrived at the gate of the D08 villa and rang the doorbell. Within just a few seconds, the gate opened.
As the door opened, the smile on Sun Yanhong's face immediately froze.
Of course she'd thought it was Chen Feng coming over; she hadn't expected it to be Wu Mengting and Sun Xiaorui.
These two women who lived with Chen Feng, Sun Yanhong had known about them long ago, and had even seen their photos.
She just hadn't expected to suddenly meet them under such circumstances.
There was no doubt that whether it was Wu Mengting or Sun Xiaorui, both were younger and prettier than her, and in person they looked even better than in the photos.
Especially Wu Mengting. Even with all the women she'd seen in her life up to now, that face was still among the top few.
Her skin was fair with a rosy undertone, full of collagen. Her almond-shaped eyes were bright and clear, brimming with spirit. Her whole person exuded an ethereal, otherworldly aura that couldn't help but make Yanhong feel a bit inferior and jealous inside.
While she was sizing up the two women, the two women were also sizing her up.
She was wearing a beige-brown low-cut crew-neck top, with no necklace on her chest, only a swath of smooth, pale skin visible. On the bottom, she had on a seemingly conservative black professional pencil skirt.
Her actual age was already just over forty, but judging from appearance alone, she looked at most thirty-five or thirty-six. Clearly, she took very good care of herself.
"And you are…?" Sun Yanhong was the first to speak, pretending not to know them.
Wu Mengting gave her a slight smile and said, "I'm Chen Feng's girlfriend, I came over to pick up the sponge cake for him. Thank you for the ones you sent before, they were delicious."
"Oh, I see. He couldn't come over himself?" Sun Yanhong very naturally frowned slightly and asked back.
"He's taking a shower, so he sent us over," Wu Mengting answered just as naturally.
"Then… come in," Sun Yanhong said after a brief hesitation, still inviting them inside.
"How should I address you two?" As she walked in, Sun Yanhong asked them as if she really didn't know.
"I'm Wu Mengting, and she's Sun Xiaorui," Wu Mengting introduced simply.
Sun Yanhong turned sideways to glance at Wu Mengting and smiled. "You just said you're Chen Feng's girlfriend. Are you his new one? Not long ago I heard he didn't have a girlfriend."
Wu Mengting shook her head and said, "I've known him since last year; we just hadn't made it public before."
"Oh, is that so. Then what's the relationship between this young lady and Chen Feng?" Sun Yanhong looked over at Sun Xiaorui with feigned curiosity.
This made Sun Xiaorui feel a bit awkward; she didn't know how she should answer.
But Wu Mengting spoke up generously: "She counts as Chen Feng's girlfriend too. We've been living together with him here for quite some time. You mean you didn't know?"
That question immediately stumped Sun Yanhong. Of course she'd known long ago; she'd just been deliberately playing dumb.
Still, she was a woman who'd been navigating society for years, a proper lady-boss with a well-trained thick skin. She calmly shook her head. "I really didn't know. I didn't expect Chen Feng to have two girlfriends. He really knows how to have his fun."
The corner of Wu Mengting's mouth twitched slightly. She didn't feel like continuing this verbal sparring, so she asked, "Is the sponge cake in the kitchen?"
Left with no choice, Sun Yanhong said, "Yes, it's over in the kitchen. I'll go get it for you."
With that, she headed toward the kitchen. Wu Mengting quickly followed and said, "I'll go with you. I'd also like to ask how you make it, if that's okay?"
At this moment, Sun Yanhong actually didn't dare offend Wu Mengting, and she nodded. "Of course."
So the three of them went into the kitchen. At Wu Mengting's deliberate "asking for advice," Sun Yanhong pointed at some leftover ingredients and utensils and personally demonstrated the process on the spot for Wu Mengting.
Only then did Wu Mengting truly believe that this sponge cake really had been made by Sun Yanhong herself.
