Ye Xiaotong's faint smile vanished when Sun Wu appeared, especially after Yuan Daan acted like Zhu Bajie eting Chang'e, making her quite annoyed.
But she remained strong internally and always followed Yuan Daan's instructions. Despite her reluctance, she took out a business card from Yuan Daan's boss bag and handed it to the two won.
Wu ngting and Sun Xiaorui looked confused. They realized that Yuan Daan had misunderstood; their nod and smile might have given him the wrong impression.
This was a bit awkward!
Both looked at Chen Feng, feeling sowhat embarrassed.
Yuan Daan's behavior had indeed put Chen Feng on the spot; before Chen Feng could introduce Sun Wu, Yuan Daan had rushed forward, introducing himself flamboyantly.
Yuan Daan's lines felt incredibly awkward in Chen Feng's ears.
Neither Wu ngting nor Sun Xiaorui reached for the business card but instead looked at Chen Feng.
Chen Feng stood awkwardly, cleared his throat, and explained to the dazed Yuan Daan and Ye Xiaotong: "They are my friends."
With that, he took the business card Ye Xiaotong had handed over.
Both Yuan Daan and Ye Xiaotong were a bit stunned.
Wu ngting smiled apologetically and said, "Sorry, I am Brother Feng's sworn sister, Wu ngting."
Sun Xiaorui followed by saying, "I'm his friend, Sun Xiaorui."
Chen Feng took advantage of the situation to ease the awkwardness, introducing Yuan Daan and his companion, "He is my college friend, Yuan Daan from the Northeast, very generous and straightforward. This is his secretary, Ye Xiaotong."
"Hahaha, so you're Chen Feng's friends. No wonder! Chen Feng truly has good luck with won, knowing two beauties like you. I'm jealous, haha."
Yuan Daan, thick-skinned as ever, quickly dispelled his own awkwardness with so self-talk.
Ye Xiaotong, however, was a bit thinner-skinned, her face flushed, embarrassed for her boss.
"You probably don't have anything planned today, right? Let treat you to dinner."
Chen Feng didn't want to chat more with L. G. Yuan, especially after this awkward incident. They didn't share a deep bond, anyway.
Back in the day, Yuan Daan often treated him to drinks and barbecues. Now that he's wealthy, their chance reunion in Xiu Zhou ant he should reciprocate.
"Sure, of course not," Yuan Daan enthusiastically replied, "Don't bother, I'll treat you all. Let's go to the Yufang Restaurant near the Ancient City Old Street; it's recomnded by a friend I t here in Xiu Zhou. I've been there several tis; the taste is excellent."
"I insist on treating. You used to treat to barbecues back in the day, and now that I live here in Xiu Zhou, it's only right that I host you."
Feeling honored by Chen Feng's words, Yuan Daan stopped refusing, laughing heartily, "You rember treating you to barbecue and beer back then, so it's your treat then."
"Alright, let's et at Yufang Restaurant at six in the evening, I'll host. I'll call you soon."
Chen Feng said, waving the business card, ready to say goodbye.
"Are you leaving already? Aren't we doing this together?"
Yuan Daan asked, a bit reluctant, his eyes on Chen Feng but often glancing at Wu ngting and Sun Xiaorui, which made Chen Feng speechless.
This guy wasn't this flirty back in college.
"It's still early, not even three yet. The three of us have other things to attend to, busy now, and I'll contact you before six o'clock."
"Alright then. Tonight, let's gather and chat."
Seeing Chen Feng's decision, Yuan Daan didn't insist further.
"Okay, see you tonight then."
Chen Feng waved goodbye, turned to leave, with Sun Wu quickly following.
"Chen Feng!" Yuan Daan suddenly called out.
As Chen Feng turned to look, Yuan Daan fumbled with his phone, quickly showing his friend QR code, walking briskly towards Chen Feng smiling, "Co, scan this and add as a friend."
Chen Feng was speechless again but took out his phone to scan and add him as a friend.
"Ladies, you should add too," Yuan Daan said, grinning widely, his face reflecting its shine.
Sun Wu again glanced at Chen Feng, causing Yuan Daan a slight heartache as he too shifted his gaze to Chen Feng.
"Why look at ? Add him!"
With Chen Feng's suggestion, Wu ngting and her friend took out their phones to add Yuan Daan as a friend.
"Haha, great, we'll contact later."
Satisfied having added the two beauties as friends, Yuan Daan finally put away his phone.
Chen Feng didn't engage further, nodding and waving goodbye before turning away, with Sun Wu swiftly following him.
The three figures quickly vanished into the bustling crowd.
Yuan Daan watched them leave for a while, feeling reluctant — not because of Chen Feng, but because of Wu ngting and Sun Xiaorui, the two beauties.
After a long ti, he sighed deeply.
It truly resonated with the saying: a comparison leads to jealousy, goods compared lead to rejection.
He always thought his mistress was pretty, and it was true. Many n envied him for having such a capable, sensible, obedient, and pretty mistress.
Especially since he also has a decent-looking wife who didn't attend college.
Which man wouldn't envy him?
But now he envies even Chen Feng.
If possible, he'd rather exchange his wife and mistress for one of Chen Feng's, especially Wu ngting, the most beautiful and elegant woman he's encountered in reality, even little less than Sun Xiaorui, whose aura and beauty surpassed his wife and mistress.
"People have left, what's there to look at?"
Ye Xiaotong, noticing Yuan Daan's dazed deanor, couldn't help but comnt sourly, knowing full well his thoughts.
Yuan Daan then turned his gaze to his mistress; previously he found her pretty and felt proud, much like when he first bought a BMW i3, being fond of it.
But later, after switching to a rcedes-Benz S-Class, the BMW i3 was no longer appealing.
Suddenly, he realized he was truly limited in perspective, having thought Ye Xiaotong represented the pinnacle of beauty and elegance he might encounter, but now comparing her to Chen Feng's companions, it truly was the difference between a lady and a maid.
