Yu Xiaohui's husband's jewelry brand, though quite well-known domestically, is at best considered second-tier. Nevertheless, in recent years, her husband has made a fortune and amassed a wealth of billions.

Of course, this is also related to the jewelry industry's huge profits.

As for Chen Feng wanting to open a gold store (jewelry store), the main goal isn't to make money; rather, it's to spend the money sitting in the bank and possibly preserve its value, and additionally, to prevent his parents back home from working too hard.

Therefore, there's no need to get a general agent or anything; he plans to open a franchise store back in his hometown.

Regarding the jewelry brand to join, Chen Feng now has some money and will naturally choose the top brands as much as possible.

However, opening a store in the countryside may not always be approved by top brands; this will depend on the specific negotiation situation.

After chatting with Yu Xiaohui for a while, they ended the conversation, which was mainly about opening the jewelry store, and he also mentioned he would be going back home tomorrow for Qin Zhen's engagement banquet.

Upon hearing that Chen Feng was going back home, Yu Xiaohui was, of course, very happy and explicitly stated that he should visit her first when he arrives tomorrow.

Although they had already started something, it was only once, and now they've been apart for a while. Chen Feng didn't mind much, but Yu Xiaohui missed him intensely like an old house catching fire.

It was just that her child was hospitalized with pneumonia for a few days, and although the child has been discharged, the two kids couldn't bear to leave her, making it impossible for her to return to Xiu Zhou for a leisurely life anytime soon.

Chen Feng readily agreed to her invitation.

Tomorrow, Chen Feng and Wu Mengting are both driving back to Lu City, but Chen Feng doesn't plan to go with them, so he has time to visit Yu Xiaohui for a rendezvous.

After putting down the phone, Chen Feng took a shower, and after lying back on the bed, he picked up the phone to check several unread messages.

Chen Feng opened each one; they were all from women, but basically, there was nothing important, so Chen Feng generally didn't reply.

Only Tang Xinyi, who asked if he was free tomorrow as she wanted to invite Chen Feng to her home for dinner.

Chen Feng replied to her, saying he was going back home tomorrow.

This woman has now placed herself well, no longer having unnecessary thoughts. Last time, when Chen Feng asked her to help contact the big star Qi Jie, she did, and their relationship was quite good. Tang Xinyi successfully persuaded the megastar to participate in the 30th-anniversary celebration event planned and organized by Dianchuang Culture Company, with a very reasonable appearance fee.

This saved him a lot of trouble and spared him from asking Yang Ziyin to invite Qi Jie, thus saving him a favor.

As for the promise from Dianchuang Culture that Yang Ziyin would also attend the anniversary celebration, that was even less of a problem; with a phone call from Chen Feng, she agreed.

Thus, Tang Xinyi is still of some use, and Chen Feng held her in higher regard, responding to her WeChat whenever possible.

In this aspect, Chen Feng is that pragmatic.

However, Tang Xinyi, upon hearing he was going back home for a few days, was inevitably a bit disappointed.

She no longer harbored extravagant expectations about Chen Feng but sincerely wanted to deepen her relationship with him for all the benefits it could bring her.

Setting aside everything else, Chen Feng himself is a very charming man, satisfactory in all aspects.

The last time they had a deep exchange, it made her even more infatuated with the comprehensive feeling of being with Chen Feng, which was extremely comfortable and enjoyable.

"Can you come over now?"

Hearing that Chen Feng was leaving for several days and uncertain when he would come back, she naturally wanted to meet him one more time.

However, Chen Feng didn't want to see her; he simply replied: "Can't go."

Tang Xinyi frowned slightly at Chen Feng's response and immediately started typing in the input box: Why can't you come?

But when she was about to hit send, she hesitated.

Previously, she wanted to further her relationship with Chen Feng, and Chen Feng decisively ignored her for a while, mainly because she didn't position herself correctly, fantasizing about becoming Chen Feng's girlfriend or even wife.

Seeing her intention, Chen Feng heartlessly cut her off.

Now, that she's managed to rekindle her connection with Chen Feng, saying something inconsistent with her identity might result in Chen Feng ignoring her again.

So, she ultimately didn't send that text, quickly deleting it and instead sent a crying emoji.

Chen Feng, upon receiving it, sent back a helpless emoji. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

After a while, Tang Xinyi sent another message: "Let me know as soon as you get back."

Chen Feng replied simply: "Okay."

Seeing this reply, Tang Xinyi felt a sense of frustration; clearly, even after many interactions, Chen Feng still didn't value her much.

Not only did he not treat her as a girlfriend, but perhaps not even as his woman; at best, she was barely considered a lover, and realistically, perhaps just a running mate.

This realization made her feel somewhat dejected.

No matter what, she used to be a star and is now a successful female CEO with both looks and talent and has never been short of suitors.

Yet, encountering someone like Chen Feng, who coolly ignored her desire to be his girlfriend, and even disinclined to have her as his unnamed woman.

She wanted to resolutely ignore Chen Feng in the future, but thinking about the millions she invested in Huo Jindong's project, Huo Jindong's regard for Chen Feng, Tao Yaoyang's hospitality toward Chen Feng, and now Fengmang Film and Television Company's earning pace, she had no choice but to endure and continue strengthening her relationship with Chen Feng.

She's always been a pragmatic woman, which is why she achieved her business success today.

Of course, her business success might be considered very successful in others' eyes, but compared to Chen Feng's billion-dollar earnings in half a year, it's not in the same league.

This is also an important reason why she persistently clings to Chen Feng, viewing him as a powerful ally she must tightly hold onto.

Chen Feng had long noticed Tang Xinyi's utilitarian mindset, which is why he never took her seriously.

From the start, her relationship with him wasn't pure, tainted with a heavy sense of ambition, and thus Chen Feng could only regard her as a running mate.

After finishing a brief conversation with Tang Xinyi, Chen Feng comfortably lay in bed watching short videos.

It wasn't until Sun Xiaorui came upstairs, finishing her shower, that Chen Feng put down his phone, embraced her fragrant body, and chatted a bit about her bridesmaid duties, and then discussed some company matters.

Nearing ten o'clock, they retired to bed as a married couple, falling asleep just before eleven sharp.

The next day, the three of them got up at almost the same time. After Chen Feng finished his morning run, the two women had already eaten breakfast and were packing their luggage.

Just a few minutes to eight o'clock, they hit the road.

It was evident how important this bridesmaid trip was to them.

Once they left, Chen Feng also went upstairs to prepare his own luggage. Since he was going back to prepare for the jewelry store, he didn't know how long he would stay, so he needed to pack more clothes, along with necessities like a shaver, phone charger, and ID card.
