The answer from Liu Ying didn’t make Sun and Wu feel any better, of course.
Currently, Chen Feng’s fixed temporary partners in Xiu Zhou included Sun Xiaorui and Liu Ying, but last night he wasn’t by their side, so who was he with? Or with which woman?
By noon when it was ti to go ho for lunch, it turned out that Chen Feng hadn’t returned. At that ti, due to Jin Xinyan’s soft request, he ended up going to McDonald’s with her, eating two big burgers and a cup of milk tea, feeling very full.
Because of that, Chen Feng didn’t return ho for lunch with them and, perhaps due to feeling a bit guilty, he didn’t inform them in advance.
Thus, both of them had a bad mood the entire day. When they finally saw Chen Feng after returning ho from work in the afternoon, their faces were visibly unhappy.
Seeing both of them act that way, of course, Chen Feng wasn’t clueless; he understood the reason for it.
He valued them, especially Wu ngting, very much. Seeing them sowhat annoyed, he stuck with them, accompanying them to watch dramas in the downstairs living room until after ten before heading upstairs.
Throughout the process, Chen Feng made an effort to talk to them, but they mostly ignored him. Even Sun Xiaorui, who was usually very obedient, seed genuinely upset this ti and aligned with Wu ngting, barely responding to him with re "hm" and "oh" answers.
Of course, this left Chen Feng rather frustrated.
But being the one at fault initially, he couldn’t bla them.
Instead, he had to appease them and try to calm them down.
Upon returning ho, Sister Xue hadn’t left yet, so Chen Feng brought her two durians, asking her to make durian chicken.
Then, Chen Feng patiently waited for Sun and Wu to return.
Then he spotted Lu Sijia arriving together with the two of them.
Seeing Chen Feng’s sowhat stunned expression, Lu Sijia feigned disapproval and said, "Boss, from your look, it seems you aren’t too thrilled about my arrival."
Chen Feng snapped back to reality, hurriedly denied, "Of course not. I’m just surprised by your sudden visit."
Lu Sijia cast an ambiguous glance at Sun and Wu, shrugged, and said, "I didn’t plan on coming; the two of them insisted I join for dinner. Couldn’t refuse such graciousness."
At that point, she looked around deliberately and said with a smile, "I never imagined the three of you live together like this. Haha, boss, doing so really makes one envious."
Chen Feng jested back, "Are you jealous of the two of them?"
"Get lost!"
The three won retorted in unison.
Chen Feng laughed heartily and changed the subject, "You’re here at the perfect ti; today I personally went and bought two imported durians, and one is used to make durian chicken—definitely a nutritious dish."
"No wonder I could sll durian from far away. It’s my favorite, durian chicken. Boss, could you have predicted my visit? Prepared it just for ."
"No such thing. It’s purely coincidental. Co, straight to the table, let’s start eating. Oh, by the way, wash your hands first."
Soon, they washed their hands, served the al, and sat down to eat together.
Durian chicken, being all three won’s favorite, was devoured, though a big bowl, in barely ten minutes.
"Oh no, oh no! This is too nutritious; wonder how much weight I’ll gain now?" Lu Sijia said, looking worried.
Sun Xiaorui chuckled, "Chicken isn’t high in calories; durian, though high in calories and fat, is rich in nutrients, good for the body, and for beautifying. Gaining a little weight is fine."
Lu Sijia chuckled wryly, "You have a man, so you don’t worry, but I can’t. I’m still single, and my age adds to the awkwardness; if my figure changes, finding a boyfriend will be challenging."
Wu ngting comforted, "Don’t worry, with your qualities, finding a boyfriend should be easy; you’re just aiming too high."
"It’s genuinely tough to find one. It’s not that I’m picky; just, there aren’t many exceptional n nowadays. I haven’t t many, to be honest."
"How about I introduce you to soone?" Wu ngting offered kindly.
"Great!" Lu Sijia imdiately agreed and said, "My requirents aren’t high. As long as the guy is over 1.7 ters tall, aged between 28 and 40, looks aren’t important, mainly good character and financial freedom."
"What exactly does financial freedom entail?" Wu ngting asked seriously.
"Simply put, it’s having money and ti. The financial standard is at least owning one’s house and having enough for normal living without worrying about money for life; the concept of ti seems obvious."
Sun Xiaorui widened her mouth slightly, "Isn’t that a high requirent?"
Wu ngting pursed her lips and said mockingly, "Not high at all; isn’t soone like that right in front of us?"
The three won simultaneously looked at Chen Feng, who was having soup.
Lu Sijia imdiately added: "Our boss here is indeed financially free, but he’s too fickle, which disqualifies him directly according to my standards."
When Sun and Wu heard her label Chen Feng as fickle, they burst into laughter aloud.
Chen Feng couldn’t deny it either, pretended not to hear, and continued sipping his soup.
This al lasted about an hour, mainly the three won chatting away, while Chen Feng scarcely joined in, nor did he want to.
As the three won were chatting energetically in the living room, Chen Feng unexpectedly received a call from Kong Tianlu.
"Chen Feng, are you free now? Co out and have a drink with ."
Before Chen Feng divorced, he maintained a fairly good relationship with Kong Tianlu, occasionally eting up for drinks, often initiated by Kong Tianlu.
Looking at the lively trio beside him, Chen Feng hesitated a bit but agreed, "Alright, where to?"
"Do you rember the Yang Restaurant where we ate together a few tis? I’m there now."
"Sounds good, I’m headed over. Should be there in about ten minutes."
After hanging up, Chen Feng actively inford Sun and Wu, saying an old friend was inviting him out for a drink, it was a guy.
At this point, Sun Xiaorui appeared less angry, actively responding, advising him not to drink too much, and offering a ride if he did.
Wu ngting, however, clearly still annoyed, eyed him suspiciously for a mont. Not noticing a guilty expression, she withdrew her assessing gaze.
Chen Feng quickly drove out, the Yang Restaurant is just a few minutes’ drive from where he once rented with Shen Lin, providing no traffic jams.
However, due to traffic jams, arriving within ten minutes was fairly normal.
When Chen Feng arrived, Kong Tianlu was alone, already having drunk quite a bit, with several empty beer bottles on the table.
