Chapter 1283: Chapter 669: Can’t Take It Anymore

"Ah, you’re going to open a jewelry store, how much will that cost?"

Wang Fang looked at Chen Feng with a face full of surprise.

She knew Chen Feng was wealthy, but she didn’t know exactly how much. At first, she thought he had a few million, then she figured he had around ten or twenty million, but now he was going to open a jewelry store, which undoubtedly raised his wealth value again.

"What brand of jewelry?"

Li Chao was relatively calm and asked plainly.

"Zhao Shengsheng." Chen Feng answered.

"That brand huh. Not bad, but it doesn’t have the same reputation as some famous ones, like that big name you should pick instead."

"So, how much do you have to spend to open this jewelry store?" Wang Fang was more concerned about this.

"At least five or six million."

Upon hearing this, Wang Fang and Li Chao suddenly went silent, this amount was beyond their expectations.

"Let’s leave it at that, I have some things to attend to, I’ll be off now."

Chen Feng didn’t want to chat with them on the street, so he said this, waved his hand at them, picked up the kids’ bike, and walked to where he parked.

"Chen Feng, let’s have a nice gathering with our old classmates the day after tomorrow, I’ll contact you then."

Li Chao shouted to him.

Chen Feng slightly turned his head and replied, "Okay, contact me, but I might be busy. We’ll see."

Li Chao didn’t say anything further, watching as Chen Feng and Yu Xiaohui got into the Porsche Cayenne and drove away, before turning his head to Wang Fang and asking, "Do you know the woman beside him? What’s her relation with him?"

"Seems familiar, but I can’t recall at the moment. Anyway, judging by the looks of them, they definitely have something going on."

Wang Fang was somewhat worried about Chen Feng discovering her affair, so she didn’t carefully observe Yu Xiaohui, whereas Li Chao wanted to acquaint himself with this charming lady, but had no opportunity.

"Yeah, Chen Feng’s quite the lucky guy. Already involved with Mengyao, but still not satisfied, even found another beauty. What do you think if we tell Mengyao about this?"

Wang Fang rolled her eyes, "You see him with another woman, he sees us together, what do you think? I’m worried he might gossip when he goes back. If my husband misunderstands, it would be troublesome."

"Rest assured, Chen Feng isn’t one to babble. Besides, he shouldn’t know your husband, right?"

"Hmm, although we live in the same town, they don’t know each other."

"Then there you go. Besides, you need proof to catch someone, and evidence to catch a thief, he merely saw us walking together on the street, what can it prove?"

"Alright, I won’t talk to you any more about this. We’d better not walk together, I’m off now. Remember, count me in on your project, jot down my name first."

In the car, Yu Xiaohui asked Chen Feng, "Was that woman just now from Qingpu Town, someone who attended the same school as us back then?"

"Yeah, she and I went to the same elementary and middle school, and were classmates in high school."

"No wonder she seemed familiar. The guy was also your high school classmate, right?"

"Yes."

"Did they both just come out of the hotel together? Are they each married?"

Yu Xiaohui was quite curious.

However, Chen Feng had nothing to hide from her on this, so he said, "They are both married, but as you saw, they came out of the hotel together."

"That’s something." Yu Xiaohui shook her head, "How can they be like this?"

Chen Feng thought, weren’t you and I the same back then? The difference was I was forced, and in the end, the two of us didn’t really make it happen.

"This happens quite often actually. Especially when old classmates get together for a reunion, male and female classmates might privately book a room or something, no surprise there. So husbands better not let their wives attend these reunions, otherwise they might end up with a ’green hat’."

Yu Xiaohui was skeptical, "This must be rare, right? Generally, it’s uncommon, after all, people care about their reputation."

"Little sister, it’s just today’s social atmosphere. People’s desires sometimes get inflated by romantic sentiments or alcohol, under certain enthusiastic settings, it becomes hard to restrain, most people don’t deliberately restrain, just thinking about indulging once, then naturally some outrageous things happen. Just like last time, our middle school classmates’ reunion, didn’t we almost make a mistake?"

Yu Xiaohui quickly responded, "Our relationship is different from theirs, you are single, and I was separated from that guy for nearly two years, completely different from those married people."

"Sure, we are different," Chen Feng laughed.

Yu Xiaohui reiterated, "Definitely different. Anyway, I would never cheat while both parties are married."

Chen Feng chuckled and said nothing more.

Yu Xiaohui drove back to the Yujing Hotel, Chen Feng went to take a shower first, then went to bed.

The half a bottle of Moutai he had earlier still packed quite the punch.

Yu Xiaohui didn’t disturb him. She quietly took her phone and started working for Chen Feng, posting job listings on various recruitment platforms.

By the time Chen Feng woke up, it was already past eight in the evening, having slept for almost two hours.

"You’re awake, hungry?"

Yu Xiaohui had been sitting in the single sofa by the window, noticing Chen Feng’s awakening, she immediately inquired with concern.

"Not hungry."

His stomach indeed wasn’t hungry, they had ordered a whole table at noon, just the three of them, Chen Feng had eaten quite a lot.

"Did you eat?" Chen Feng purposely asked.

Yu Xiaohui smiled sweetly, "I’m not that hungry either. Ate too much at noon."

"Alright, we’ll eat later then, have some supper."

"Should we invite Mengyao along? She was hoping to join us for supper this morning."

Chen Feng understood she and Guo Mengyao had become allies, so he shot her a sideways glance, "If we let her join supper, afterwards I’d go home to sleep, can’t accompany you for the night."

Yu Xiaohui didn’t hesitate much, responded immediately, "Then let’s forget about it tonight, invite her tomorrow night."

"Alright then."

After Chen Feng spoke, he went to the bathroom to relieve himself, washed his face, came back, drank a bottle of water, turned on the TV, watching while scrolling on his phone, occasionally chatting with Yu Xiaohui.

The phone still had many unread messages, but mostly they didn’t require Chen Feng’s reply. Although the TV was on, Chen Feng wasn’t really watching, just listening to the sound for some liveliness.

Yu Xiaohui reported on the job listings, saying quite a few people had applied, sending her electronic resumes, asking if Chen Feng wanted to look at them together.

Chen Feng wasn’t interested, telling her to decide for herself, and if suitable, after interviews, they could be formally hired, then sent to Shen City for training.

Once training was completed, and the shop lease at Baijia Square came through, they could renovate and prepare to open.

Before they knew it, it was already ten at night, and suddenly there was a knock at the door, surprising them both, wondering who could be knocking at this hour.
