Just as Chen Feng anticipated, the visitor was indeed Hong Xiaodan. She ca with a food box in hand, intending to mooch a al.
"This is roasted goose I bought from the deli across the block. I tried it once before, and it tasted quite good. You all should give it a try."
Upon entering, Hong Xiaodan confidently opened the food box she brought and placed it on the coffee table, gesturing for Chen Feng and Qin Zhen to help themselves.
Qin Zhen glanced at Chen Feng, raising an eyebrow. Chen Feng imdiately understood his intention and introduced, "This is Qin Zhen, my good buddy, currently the deputy director at the precinct station." After saying that, Chen Feng then introduced to Qin Zhen, "This is Hong Xiaodan, soone I t in Tianzhou. My aunt lives in Tianzhou."
"Nice to et you, nice to et you." Qin Zhen nodded towards Hong Xiaodan with a smile, seemingly having a bit of interest in her.
Indeed, Qin Zhen was still the sa Qin Zhen. Here he was, not yet having things entirely sorted out with Ning Wei, and seeing the gorgeous and wealthy Hong Xiaodan, he thought of making a move.
Hong Xiaodan glanced at Qin Zhen and smiled, saying, "I actually t Chen Feng on a blind date. Unfortunately, he wasn’t interested in , otherwise, I really would have liked to give dating him a try."
Qin Zhen’s smile suddenly froze on his face, and he cast a resentful glance at Chen Feng. He thought to himself, brother, you’re passing her to because you don’t want her.
Chen Feng was a bit speechless, looking at Hong Xiaodan. This woman was quite shaless, telling everyone they once went on a blind date. Even if she wasn’t embarrassed, Chen Feng found it a little hard to bear.
"How did you two et? Are you classmates?"
The two n stopped talking, and instead, Hong Xiaodan asked them.
The two exchanged a glance, and eventually, Chen Feng spoke up, "Yes, high school classmates, college peers."
"Oh, then it seems your relationship is really solid. Mr. Qin, are you married?"
This question made Qin Zhen a bit uncomfortable, but he still gracefully shook his head.
"Then do you have a girlfriend?"
Qin Zhen wanted to say no, but thinking of Ning Wei, he could only nod uncomfortably again.
Hong Xiaodan’s two questions directly gave Qin Zhen a knockout. Since he had a girlfriend, it certainly wasn’t appropriate to openly get close to her.
Seeing this, Chen Feng couldn’t help but comnd Hong Xiaodan’s skill. She might have noticed sothing, quickly cutting off Qin Zhen’s intentions before he could make a move.
Not to ntion Qin Zhen still technically had a girlfriend, but just knowing she had gone on a blind date with Chen Feng would irk him, making it hard for him to proceed.
"Co on, try it, it’s delicious. I’ll get you so chopsticks."
Hong Xiaodan finished speaking and, unrestrained, casually headed toward the kitchen.
"Fengzi, I can’t handle this one, thanks for your kindness."
Qin Zhen leaned over, speaking in a low voice with appreciation.
Chen Feng imdiately encouraged, "She really is a genuine rich beauty. Her dad is a tycoon over in Tianzhou, worth billions, and she’s his sole heiress. If you marry her, you’d undoubtedly be a life winner."
"Damn! She really is a rich beauty? And the sole heir to billions—I’m even more overwheld. Forget it, don’t play matchmaker for . I’ll just finish my al honestly and leave."
Qin Zhen shook his head repeatedly, looking as if he wanted to avoid any further involvent.
Having learned from past experiences, Qin Zhen was wise now. Ning Wei was like a mini version of a rich beauty, and they were already on the verge of breaking up. He didn’t want to switch up to a full-scale one.
Seeing this, Chen Feng couldn’t continue persuading. To be honest, Hong Xiaodan, with her strong, independent personality as a rich beauty, wasn’t soone just anyone could handle. Plus, her forceful character ant that if she and Qin Zhen got together, their strong personalities would clash, leading to a disaster.
Chen Feng couldn’t push him into the fire pit. His previous thought of matchmaking indeed seed inappropriate.
Over there, Hong Xiaodan acted like she was at ho, casually moving to the kitchen, casually greeting Sun and Wu with a simple "hi," then grabbed three pairs of chopsticks and turned around.
Wu ngting and Sun Xiaorui exchanged a glance, their expressions turning slightly displeased.
After all, this was their territory. Who did Hong Xiaodan think she was? She didn’t consider herself an outsider at all.
They both felt their territory had been invaded, even the good-natured Sun Xiaorui felt uncomfortable.
"Later, we’ll teach her a lesson. She’s too arrogant," Wu ngting whispered to her.
Even Sun Xiaorui felt offended this ti, and instead of backing down, she nodded and softly agreed.
"Co on, eat up, I’m starting first."
Hong Xiaodan handed the chopsticks to Chen Feng and Qin Zhen, and then started eating a piece without any reservations.
Chen Feng and Qin Zhen followed suit and started eating. Indeed, the roasted goose was quite tasty.
"Not bad, right? I hear this place has been around for decades and is quite famous in the area. I’ve been buying from them almost every day lately, just right for a al. By the way, Chen Feng, do you have a housekeeper at ho who can cook well?"
"No," Chen Feng shook his head.
"So it’s just those two cooking for you at ho?" Hong Xiaodan gestured towards the kitchen.
"Yes, they’re both quite good at cooking, taking turns."
Hong Xiaodan glanced at the kitchen again and remarked, "You’re really lucky to have both of them taking care of you."
"Who says I’m not?" Qin Zhen couldn’t resist chiming in, looking at Chen Feng munching on a goose leg with envy and jealousy.
Chen Feng rolled his eyes at him, saying nothing.
Hong Xiaodan, without mincing words, said with a smile, "How about I co over to join you for als in the future? I’ll be responsible for buying the groceries."
"No way," Chen Feng refused outright.
Hong Xiaodan pouted, "Don’t you have any compassion? We’re at least friends. My mom and your aunt are also good friends, and we’re neighbors now."
"You’re not short on money, so why not just hire a housekeeper who can cook? If you can’t find one yourself, ask your parents to find soone from back ho to cook your hotown dishes."
"I don’t like having outsiders at ho. And finding a suitable cook isn’t that easy. At least until I find the right one, let join you guys temporarily. At worst, I’ll pay them extra. How about that?"
Chen Feng replied irritably, "Do you think they look like housekeepers?"
In his heart, Qin Zhen considered them housekeepers.
Hong Xiaodan felt they seed like that too but didn’t voice it, only saying to Chen Feng, "I don’t an to belittle them. If you don’t agree, I’ll ask them myself later."
"Alright, then go ahead and ask them."
Chen Feng casually waved his hand. Both Sun Xiaorui and Wu ngting didn’t have a good impression of her; how could they possibly agree?
Besides, they were going on a nationwide tour in the afternoon, so her trying to mooch off als was not going to work.
