Chapter 1308: Chapter 681: Do Not Force What Is Not Meant to Be

Cheng Yuhuan laughed, "Just kidding with you. I’m mainly asking him about buying a house over in Xiu Zhou. He promised me before that he’d help inquire for me over there."

Guo Mengyao said, somewhat irritated, "Then ask him directly, why make me convey messages?"

"I asked him on WeChat, but he’s just not replying. I feel like maybe he doesn’t want to keep his promise, so I’m asking you, his old classmate, to help me ask again. Your influence is definitely bigger than mine. Best if you could ask him to meet with me. I’ll treat him to a meal, and we can chat properly."

"Can’t I join you to meet with him?" Guo Mengyao was somewhat unwilling, also concerned about them meeting alone, given Cheng Yuhuan used to be the class beauty and still looks quite alluring.

"Mengyao, don’t worry; I want to meet him alone. It’s really about serious matters involving my personal privacy. After we talk, I’ll treat you to a big meal and apologize, okay?"

Saying this much, Guo Mengyao couldn’t insist anymore and said, "Alright, I’ll give him a call, but I can’t guarantee he’ll agree to meet you alone."

"Alright, thanks a lot. Just as long as you call him, I’ll be grateful."

"Okay, I’ll do that first and give him a call."

"Alright."

After hanging up, Guo Mengyao immediately called Chen Feng.

At this moment, Yu Xiaohui hadn’t finished her shower, so Chen Feng was free. Seeing it was a call from Guo Mengyao again, he hesitated for a moment but answered.

"What’s the matter now?" Chen Feng asked, a bit impatiently.

"So, Cheng Yuhuan called me earlier. She said you haven’t replied to her on WeChat. She wants to meet up with you. Do you have time?"

Chen Feng frowned. Last time, he was very clear that he wasn’t interested in her, yet she still wants to meet.

"What’s her business?"

"She said it’s quite private and mysterious; I don’t know specifically. Also mentioned asking about buying a house in Xiu Zhou."

"Let her call me herself."

After saying this, Chen Feng again directly hung up, which made Guo Mengyao angry enough to want to smash her phone, but she held back. She was too lazy to call Cheng Yuhuan, so she directly sent a WeChat message to relay Chen Feng’s words.

After Cheng Yuhuan expressed thanks on WeChat, she immediately called Chen Feng.

The reason she initially asked Guo Mengyao to convey the message was fearing that if she called directly, Chen Feng wouldn’t respond. With Mengyao as the intermediary, Chen Feng should give her some face.

"Chen Feng, sorry, am I bothering you?"

As soon as the call connected, Cheng Yuhuan promptly apologized to Chen Feng.

"What do you need from me? I talked with you about buying a house in Xiu Zhou last time. I’ll keep an eye out when I return to Xiu Zhou. If I say I’ll do it, I’ll surely find a suitable property or shop for investment."

"It’s like this: I just found out today that my husband made a will. If he passes away, 70% of his assets will go to his son, and another 10% donated. My daughter and I only get 20%. That’s so unfair. Do you know any reliable and capable lawyers? I want to find someone to consult about this will to see if there are any loopholes."

Chen Feng listened and felt speechless, "There are plenty of lawyers to find; what’s asking me going to do? I don’t know many lawyers."

Cheng Yuhuan said, "This will is very confidential, very important to me and my daughter. If a regular lawyer leaks it, I would have big trouble. Therefore, I must find a professional and trustworthy lawyer. You’re so well-off, surely you know more lawyers than I do, right?"

That’s true. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

After thinking for a while, Chen Feng said, "I do know a few lawyers, one in Xiu Zhou and one in Lin Nan. I can give you their contact information, and you can reach out to them. Trust their professional ethics; they won’t leak your personal privacy casually."

Cheng Yuhuan said, "I took pictures of the will on my phone. I’ll send it to you, and could you pass it to a lawyer for consultation? Please. I’ll cover all legal fees."

Chen Feng was indeed quite speechless, but it was an urgent and serious matter for someone else, so it was hard to refuse.

"Alright, send it over."

Cheng Yuhuan quickly sent over several photos of the will’s specific contents she took on her phone.

Chen Feng briefly looked them over and then contacted Lu Guancheng on WeChat. He had the best relationship with him. Although Lu was a real estate lawyer, he certainly understood wills. Even if he didn’t, he could ask other lawyers in his circle.

Chen Feng had previously bought several properties and shops with Lu’s help, undoubtedly making him a VIP client. Chen Feng sent him a message, and he replied soon after.

So, after Chen Feng explained the situation briefly to him, Lu Guancheng said he could help his friend review the will and waived the consultation fee as a friendly favor.

Chen Feng didn’t exchange pleasantries and sent over the will’s photos.

Lu Guancheng sent back, "I’ll get back to you soon," and fell silent.

Chen Feng didn’t say more to him, just relayed the message to Cheng Yuhuan on WeChat.

Cheng Yuhuan called to inquire in detail.

Afterward, she cheerfully said, "This time, you’ve really helped me out. I’m going to Lin Nan tomorrow; I’ll treat you to a meal."

"No need, it was just a small effort."

"Yes, tomorrow at noon, at Yujing Hotel, I’ll treat you to a good meal."

"Is that necessary?" Chen Feng expressed confusion.

"Of course it’s necessary. You helped me a lot, and if we find a loophole in the will, you and my daughter would be our saviors."

"Okay, I have things to do. I’ll talk to you later."

After saying that, Chen Feng quickly hung up the phone, turned to greet Yu Xiaohui emerging from the bathroom wrapped in a towel. "Come, baby, let me give you a full-body massage. Just happened to have a bottle of olive oil here, perfect to use."

Chen Feng approached eagerly, reached out for Yu Xiaohui, and pulled her to the bed, letting her lie down facing away.

Then, Chen Feng immediately fetched a small bottle of olive oil with a price tag of 128 yuan, undid her bathrobe, opened the bottle, and poured a third over her back, starting a wholehearted massage.

...

On the other side, Cheng Yuhuan also experienced Chen Feng’s abrupt hanging-up behavior, leaving her distinctly frustrated.

Her beauty seemed ineffective with Chen Feng, the "odd man," hitting her confidence hard and leaving lingering displeasure.
