After my divorce, I started to have good luck Chapter 217 - 142: Honest People Suffer Disadvantages3

Chen Feng gave a sheepish smile and said, "How should I put it, I’m just a bit closer to her now. Yu Jiao was being pressured by her family, so I had to pretend to be her boyfriend. You don’t need to worry about it. Next ti her aunt asks, just refer her to and say it’s none of my business."

"How could that be okay? Her uncle is your dad’s cousin, you should call him your uncle. They’re relatives, so how can you not give them an explanation? Be honest with , have you slept with this Yu Jiao?"

Under his mother’s stern gaze, Chen Feng’s face turned red as he stamred, "Mom, just leave this alone. Right now, Yu Jiao and I are just putting on a show for her family. Please keep it a secret for us for the ti being. Yu Jiao and I will handle this... Ouch! Mom, why are you pinching ?"

"Pinching you is letting you off easy, you little rascal. Ever since your divorce, you’ve beco more of a scoundrel. One girlfriend here, another ’sister’ there, and that’s not enough—you’re also fooling around with a divorced woman. Tell , with your womanizing ways, are you still my son?"

Zhao Xiaolan said, twisting his arm a few more tis.

Chen Feng hastily pleaded, "Mom, calm down, please calm down. Of course, I’m your son. I haven’t done anything outrageously wrong, just had a bit better luck with won recently, can you bla ? I didn’t even want it."

"You shaless thing, why can’t you be more like your dad and your brother? They are so honest."

Chen Feng mumbled, "Honest people suffer losses."

"Am I talking about that?" Zhao Xiaolan glared at him, lowered her voice, and warned, "I don’t care about the others, but Little Ting is a girl I really like, and I won’t allow you to hurt her. If you really don’t like her, don’t ss with her. If you do like her, stop being so fickle and hooking up left and right. Otherwise, I won’t let you off."

"Yes, yes, yes, I definitely won’t hurt her. I’ve always treated her like a real sister."

"Is that human talk? She ca chasing after you all the way to your house for you. Just rember, if you do her wrong, I absolutely won’t let you off."

"Yes, yes, yes, I rember," Chen Feng almost instinctively complied.

The mighty power of Mother’s warning was undeniable, leaving Chen Feng’s legs a bit wobbly.

As a child, he often got spanked by his mother, leaving him with a psychological shadow that lingered to this day—whenever his mother got angry, his whole body would start to shake.

Of course, he wasn’t the only one with this issue. His older brother, Chen Rui, had the sa symptoms, and even more severe.

Back in the store, Chen Feng wore a gloomy expression. Wu ngting imdiately noticed it and felt puzzled, but she refrained from asking in front of Zhao Xiaolan.

After everyone had dinner together, Wu ngting chatted with Zhao Xiaolan in the kitchen for a while before she returned to the back room and took out her phone to text Chen Feng.

"What did your mom pull you aside to talk about earlier? You’ve been down ever since."

At that mont, Chen Feng was chatting on WeChat with Sun Xiaorui, who was out shopping with a friend and had sent him several street photos.

Chen Feng glanced at Wu ngting’s ssage and replied, "Was it that obvious?"

"Very. You only had one bowl of rice."

That was indeed true. After the lecture from his mom earlier, his mood definitely wasn’t great, and since he had eaten quite a bit of country food at lunch, he only had one bowl of rice for dinner, whereas he usually had at least two.

If he were to be honest, he was indeed a bit of a womanizer. But wasn’t he terminally ill and rich to boot? He figured enjoying life and playing around with a few won cooperatively wasn’t against ethics or morals, and shouldn’t be wrong, should it?

But such things, though done, can hardly be spoken about. Anyone who heard of his deeds would think of him as a scumbag, and his actions certainly were not sothing to be encouraged or mimicked.

Now, it seed his mother had indeed been brainwashed by Wu ngting, though she hadn’t explicitly told him to marry her, the intention was clear enough. And yet, he was unable to fulfill his mother’s wish.

Thinking of his illness and not knowing how long he would live even after the new year, it was no wonder his mood was not great.

Naturally, he couldn’t share these thoughts with Wu ngting.

He typed back: "My mom found out about and Yu Jiao, gave a long lecture, calling a womanizer."

Wu ngting imdiately sent back a laughing GIF, delighted at his misfortune, with a ssage: "Serves you right!"

Chen Feng felt gloomy and sent a gloomy emoticon.

Wu ngting laughed heartily upon seeing the emoticon and typed: "Mom didn’t wrong you. You’ve just returned and already hooked up with Yu Jiao. Sun is still waiting for you. Calling you a womanizer is spot-on."

"She didn’t wrong . But she also warned , saying you’re a good girl and told not to harm you."

"Really?"

"Guess."

Wu ngting sent an explosive GIF and typed: "Clearly, your mom misunderstood you, so you’re upset, right?"

"Sothing like that. But mainly, I just realized I really am a scumbag, ssing around with won everywhere and still letting down your true feelings."

"Don’t say that. You’re a scumbag, but you have your principles—you haven’t lied to Sun or Yu Jiao, nor to ."

"...Thanks for the complint."

"That’s not a complint, just stating the facts. Plus, I don’t like how you are now, you know what I an."

"I don’t."

Wu ngting imdiately sent an angry emoticon.
