Chapter 1326: Chapter 690: I’m Really Annoyed

The first negotiation between Chen Feng and Wu Mengting ended unhappily, neither could persuade the other.

Wu Mengting went to the company early, while Chen Feng first went upstairs to the bedroom to take a shower.

When he finished his shower and came downstairs, Sun Xiaorui was sitting in the living room. Seeing him come down, she quickly stood up and cautiously asked in a low voice, "How did your talk with Mengting go? I noticed she didn’t look too happy."

"You already know?" Chen Feng responded.

Sun Xiaorui nodded calmly and said, "She told me two days ago that she was about to formally establish a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship with you."

Only then did Chen Feng understand why Sun Xiaorui was so tense and unnatural during the meal the three of them shared earlier.

If Wu Mengting and Chen Feng officially became lovers, and cohabiting lovers at that, then what would that make her? Her position would be very awkward.

Chen Feng frowned slightly and asked, "What else did she tell you?"

Sun Xiaorui hesitated for a moment and then said, somewhat embarrassedly, "She said she would allow me to continue living here, but I must sleep in separate rooms from you, not... not sharing a bed every day. Also, she advised me to find a good man to marry soon."

After saying this, she carefully observed Chen Feng’s expression.

Unfortunately, Chen Feng only furrowed his brow slightly, his face showing little emotion, making it hard to discern his true thoughts.

Chen Feng was a bit dissatisfied with Wu Mengting’s urgent manner in starting to organize his past companions, but he also knew that if she really became his girlfriend, she had the right to do so, and thus he wasn’t too angry.

"What do you think yourself?" Chen Feng looked at her and asked.

Sun Xiaorui said with a bit of grievance, "Of course I hope I can always be with you."

Chen Feng was very comforted hearing her say this. He walked over, naturally embraced her, and said with a smile, "I also hope we can always live together, just afraid you’ll feel wronged in the future."

Sun Xiaorui couldn’t help but smile and said, "As long as I’m with you, I won’t feel wronged."

Chen Feng didn’t use flowery language and directly asked, "Are you willing to just follow me without any status or title?"

Sun Xiaorui didn’t hesitate much and nodded, "I’m willing."

"Why?" Chen Feng heard she wasn’t lying, and was somewhat curious as there’s hardly any woman willing to be a mistress for long. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

"I am happy being with you, and since I’ve been with you, I’ve lived the life I’ve wanted."

At this point, Sun Xiaorui raised her eyes slightly to look at Chen Feng, and said softly, "Also, I really like you. Priceless treasures can be found, but it’s rare to find a truly affectionate man. If I were with a man I don’t like, I certainly wouldn’t be happy or feel fulfilled."

She spoke very frankly. First of all, since she’s been with Chen Feng, she’s lived in a villa, earns tens of thousands in salary monthly, and holds an executive position at Fengmang Film and Television Company, living the life of a person of high status. No longer does she have to struggle aimlessly in the city for survival, calculate endlessly just to find a suitable man to settle down with.

Chen Feng has given her material satisfaction, mental enjoyment, and emotionally, Chen Feng, being handsome and mature, is indeed her favorite type.

Not to mention that now, they have developed deep feelings over time, making it truly difficult to leave Chen Feng, as she immensely enjoys and has adapted to her current comfort zone, and forcibly taking her out of it would be extremely painful and unwanted.

Despite saying this, Chen Feng still felt a sense of gratitude.

"Saying this makes me feel a bit guilty. You’re a good woman, and if you truly just follow me without any status, it would be unfair to you."

Chen Feng finally spoke with some warmth.

"I don’t feel it’s unfair." Sun Xiaorui smiled slightly and said, "From the beginning, you had clearly stipulated that you were going to keep me, and I agreed. I’ve taken the money."

Her words made Chen Feng feel a bit embarrassed. At the time, he viewed her with a casual, frivolous attitude of someone who had just suddenly gained wealth, allowing desires to inflate, so he proposed such an insulting transaction to her, whom he had just met.

In truth, her family wasn’t really poor; her father, a retired cadre from a state enterprise, received a retirement salary of several thousand a month, and she could support herself with her own job, without necessarily having to be a mistress.

With her looks, finding a wealthy boyfriend wouldn’t be too difficult.

Ultimately, as she mentioned before, she had seen him twice before their initial meeting, during which Chen Feng left a very good impression on her each time.

So, although Chen Feng’s direct proposal to keep her felt somewhat humiliating, it was still within her acceptable range.

But mainly, she genuinely liked Chen Feng and did not resist him.

"A beauty like you willing to follow me, I have no reason to refuse." Chen Feng opened up and said with a smile, "But, I’m still sticking to what I said before: if you want to leave me, just give me advance notice, so we part amicably. I’ll also give you the agreed breakup fee as per our initial agreement."

In truth, although Chen Feng was moved by her words, it hadn’t reached the level of deeply emotional or genuine feelings; ultimately, it’s hard for him to deeply invest emotionally in one woman right now.
