Chapter 1309: Chapter 682: Overestimating Oneself

It wasn’t until after nine o’clock in the evening that Chen Feng forwarded Lu Guancheng’s reply to Cheng Yuhuan.

Overall, her husband’s will doesn’t have any major loopholes, only some minor flaws, but they don’t affect the legality of the will. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

Of course, Lu Guancheng is not specialized in inheritance law; he made this judgment based on his own legal knowledge.

Maybe if a specialized inheritance lawyer were called to review it closely, they might find some mistakes.

Cheng Yuhuan quickly messaged back, asking Chen Feng to help find a specialized inheritance lawyer through Lu Guancheng to see if they could find a loophole. The consultation fee could be negotiated.

Although Chen Feng was a bit annoyed, he mentioned it to Lu Guancheng.

Lu Guancheng quickly responded, saying he could help find a professional inheritance lawyer. Just to look at the will and consult, the fee wasn’t very high, just the market rate.

After Chen Feng agreed, the other party helped contact a lawyer and gave him a WeChat ID, which Chen Feng then forwarded to Cheng Yuhuan.

After expressing her gratitude, Cheng Yuhuan finally stopped bothering him.

Chen Feng soon put the matter aside.

The next day, Chen Feng had breakfast with Yu Xiaohui at the hotel. Yu Xiaohui contacted the assessment team, and after communicating, found out they didn’t need people from her side today. So, Yu Xiaohui started sorting through the application materials received, selecting candidates for interviews.

Once they pass the assessment and the franchise contract becomes officially effective, interviews will begin.

Chen Feng didn’t go home either, staying at the hotel with her. After all, if he were at home, he’d be on his phone reading novels, and it made no difference to do so at the hotel.

At noon, Chen Feng suddenly received a call from Cheng Yuhuan, saying she’d arrived in Lin Nan and was at the Yujing Hotel, inviting him for a meal.

Chen Feng directly declined, but Cheng Yuhuan was persistent, saying she wanted to thank him for introducing the inheritance lawyer, which helped her finally find a loophole in her husband’s inheritance.

According to the lawyer, as long as they could seize this loophole, after her husband’s eventual passing, she had a high chance of winning at least half of the inheritance in court.

That’s what she wanted; she wasn’t greedy, just half would be enough, not the whole thing.

Chen Feng really didn’t like hearing this. Although her husband was more than ten years older than her, under normal circumstances, barring any accidents, he could easily live for another three or four decades.

Focusing on her husband’s inheritance at this point seemed too early and unnecessary.

If she really wanted to fight for the inheritance, it would be better to strengthen her relationship with her husband while he’s still alive. If their relationship were strong enough, her husband might create another will in the future.

Of course, this was just Chen Feng’s internal thought. He couldn’t be bothered to tell her since their relationship wasn’t that close.

The bottom line was that he didn’t want to have too many interactions with Cheng Yuhuan. Despite her repeated pleas, Chen Feng just wasn’t interested, leaving her feeling helpless.

After hanging up, Chen Feng chatted with Yu Xiaohui about family matters. When they got hungry, they rarely left their room to go eat beef bone noodles together, the same kind Chen Feng had with Little Man before.

Last time, Chen Feng only ate beef bones; this time, he wanted beef bones with noodles.

On the way down, Chen Feng initially felt a bit worried about possibly running into Cheng Yuhuan since she also said she was staying there, but it didn’t happen, saving him some unnecessary trouble.

Chen Feng drove Yu Xiaohui to the beef bone shop he went to before with Little Man. The authentic beef bones were served as always, Chen Feng ordered noodles, and Yu Xiaohui ordered rice noodles.

While enjoying their meal, someone suddenly shouted at Yu Xiaohui, "Hui, what a coincidence, you’re eating here too?"

They looked up to see a greasy middle-aged man, in his forties, slightly bald, wearing a polo shirt and slacks, with a briefcase under his arm, exuding a boss-like air.

Seeing this person, Yu Xiaohui’s expression slightly changed, looking a bit displeased, but she reluctantly nodded without saying a word, clearly not welcoming this person.

But the man didn’t seem to notice Yu Xiaohui’s attitude toward him, came over with a cheeky grin, pulled up a plastic stool, and sat not far from Chen Feng, facing Yu Xiaohui while ignoring Chen Feng.

"Hui, I visited your in-laws last time, they’ve aged quite a bit. Luckily, they have grandchildren, otherwise, life would be really hard."

Yu Xiaohui felt compelled to speak due to his presence, "Jia Yuanwu, don’t you see I’m having lunch with my boyfriend? Could you not disturb us?"

Jia Yuanwu’s face stiffened, and then as if seeing Chen Feng for the first time, he turned to him with a forced smile, asking, "Are you Hui’s boyfriend?"

His gaze carried obvious scrutiny and disdain, a superior looking down on an inferior.

This made Chen Feng very unhappy, and he immediately turned serious, saying, "Didn’t you hear what Xiaohui said? Don’t disturb us while we’re eating."

Jia Yuanwu squinted his eyes, glaring menacingly at Chen Feng, coldly saying, "I’ve known Hui for many years, and I was close friends with her husband. I’m warning you, don’t have any ideas about Hui..."

"Enough!" Yu Xiaohui cut him off angrily, "You have no business with my affairs, leave us alone to eat."

"Ha, fine, take your time with your meal."

Jia Yuanwu laughed indifferently and got up to leave. As he was about to turn away, he looked at Yu Xiaohui again and said, "Hui, I know it’s not easy for you, but you can’t just judge a man by his appearance, keep an eye out, or you might end up losing both the person and the wealth in the future."

Having said that, he chuckled and finally turned and walked away.

"What kind of person is he? What’s your relationship with him?"

Chen Feng was annoyed by this guy’s arrogant demeanor.

"Didn’t he just say? He’s that guy’s friend, the one among his gang of cronies who’s somewhat respectable and capable."

This wasn’t something Chen Feng liked to hear, so he asked, "What kind of respectability and capability does he have?"

"He’s the general manager of Zhongsen Chain Supermarket, also one of the shareholders, and some sort of committee member in Lu City. He holds several titles and knows quite a few officials."

Chen Feng knew about Zhongsen Chain Supermarket, which is a well-known chain in Lu City with branches in every county and district, and even more than one.

For example, there are five or six Zhongsen Supermarkets in the city district, and in a few top economic counties, there are chain branches even in the towns below.

It’s also said there are chain stores outside of Lu City, but Chen Feng wasn’t very clear about those.

At first glance, this person indeed had some status and ability, or he wouldn’t be able to take the position of general manager at Zhongsen Chain Supermarket.

But Chen Feng really didn’t think highly of this person’s status.

Suffice it to say, did this person have the background of someone like Tao Yaoyang?

Additionally, while Zhongsen Chain Supermarket might be a significant taxpayer in Lu City, outside of Lu City, it wouldn’t be considered much.
