Chapter 1346: Chapter 699: Considering Herself His Girlfriend (Part 2)

"I hope so too."

Soon, another episode of the Korean drama on TV started, and Wu Mengting’s attention was quickly drawn back, pausing the conversation with Chen Feng.

After another episode ended, Wu Mengting turned to Chen Feng and asked, "When do you plan to break up with that Li Liqin?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Feng couldn’t help but look at her and ask, "Do you care about this matter that much?"

Wu Mengting responded matter-of-factly, "Of course I care. This Li Liqin is quite well-off herself, a career woman who has even studied abroad. I think it’s best you break up sooner, otherwise, I’m afraid she’ll cling to you."

Chen Feng thought for a moment and said, "Then tomorrow. Tonight I’ve arranged to meet her for coffee at noon tomorrow and then tell her clearly, break up."

"Alright, then I’ll wait for your good news tomorrow. Oh, and remember to record it."

Chen Feng chuckled and continued to look down at his phone.

The two sat together in a tacit understanding, yet each was "busy with their own things" until Sun Xiaorui returned.

"Did you come back so soon?"

Seeing them back, Sun Xiaorui asked with some surprise.

Wu Mengting said, "There wasn’t really much to do there; we just strolled through an old street and alley, ate some local snacks, and then came back."

Sun Xiaorui was a bit pleased, "It’s great you came back early; otherwise, I’d be scared staying alone in such a big house at night."

Chen Feng asked, "Didn’t you ask Xin Yuqing to come over to keep you company?"

Sun Xiaorui shook her head and said, "Although I have a good relationship with Xin Yuqing and she respects me a lot, she’s still an outsider, so it’s better not to invite her home."

Although almost everyone in the company knows she’s Chen Feng’s kept woman, no one has really confirmed it.

If Xin Yuqing came to stay with her, her identity as a kept mistress would undoubtedly be solidified.

Wu Mengting agreed, saying, "That’s right, we shouldn’t have outsiders living here."

Chen Feng thought it over, and indeed, having Xin Yuqing come over, even temporarily, might not be appropriate.

After all, Xin Yuqing is now someone from their company.

"Alright, let’s eat first. Mengting, go cook a dish, let’s eat a little."

Upon Chen Feng’s words, Wu Mengting agreed happily and went to the kitchen.

Seeing this, Sun Xiaorui opened her mouth but didn’t insist on going to cook.

Once Wu Mengting started busying herself in the kitchen, Sun Xiaorui sat down next to Chen Feng and quietly asked, "How are things going with you and Mengting?"

Chen Feng glanced at the kitchen and softly replied, "She’s already kind of my girlfriend now."

Sun Xiaorui was internally startled, an unspeakable sense of loss flooding her heart, eventually letting Wu Mengting get her wish. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

Chen Feng could somewhat feel Sun Xiaorui’s complex mood at this time and comforted her, saying, "Don’t worry; as long as you don’t want to leave me, I won’t let you go."

Sun Xiaorui gave a somewhat bitter smile, nodded, and said no more.

Very soon, Wu Mengting cooked two dishes and made rice in the pressure cooker, all very swiftly.

In just about ten minutes, the three sat down to eat.

During the meal, Wu Mengting brought up the matter of having dinner with Qin Zhen and his wife tonight, inviting Sun Xiaorui to join them.

Sun Xiaorui declined, citing that she wasn’t feeling well, and Wu Mengting didn’t insist.

This left Chen Feng, who was watching on the side, feeling wordless for a good while.

One invitation lacked sincerity, and the other’s refusal was rather perfunctory, claiming not to feel well without mentioning exactly how.

Truly plastic sisters.

Chen Feng’s reservation at Wenhua Inn was at eight in the evening; earlier spots were unavailable.

So, Chen Feng had Wu Mengting and himself eat a little at home first to fill up.

The two left around seven-thirty, arriving at Wenhua Inn just before eight.

By this time, Qin Zhen and his wife had been waiting at the entrance for them for about ten minutes.

Upon Chen Feng’s arrival, Qin Zhen faux angrily punched him on the arm.

"You made us wait, kid; a bit later, and I’d have left myself. Talk about inviting guests without any sincerity."

Chen Feng retorted, "You’ve got a free gourmet meal coming; what’s there to complain about? Come on, let’s go inside."

Led by Chen Feng, a member, the other three followed him into the old Prince Mansion.

In the private room, Qin Zhen asked in his hometown dialect, "What’s the situation with you two now? I heard you’re planning to get engaged by the end of the year; is it true?"

Without waiting for Chen Feng to answer, Wu Mengting responded in the standard Mandarin, "Yes, both our parents really hope we can get engaged before the end of the year."

The usually quiet Pei Lei was also surprised and asked, "Are you two progressing that fast?"

Chen Feng quickly explained, "We’re not getting engaged that soon, I haven’t decided yet. It might be postponed."

Qin Zhen laughed and asked, "Is Mengting now officially your girlfriend?"

Of Chen Feng’s women, Qin Zhen knows a few, but he admires Wu Mengting the most, not only due to the connection of both being from Lu City but also because, in comparison to Chen Feng’s other women, Wu Mengting is undoubtedly more excellent.

"Of course."

Wu Mengting eagerly answered Qin Zhen’s question, deliberately wrapping her arms around Chen Feng’s arm, resting her head on his shoulder, behaving in an overly intimate manner,

"Great. You two are finally a couple. Congratulations, here, I’ll toast you with this drink instead of wine."

Qin Zhen was genuinely happy for Chen Feng from the bottom of his heart.

In his view, Chen Feng was too much of a playboy and needed to settle down. Moreover, a beauty of Wu Mengting’s level was more than enough for Chen Feng.

Chen Feng and Wu Mengting, feeling obliged, toasted with a drink with Qin Zhen.

Shortly after, the ordered dishes were served, and the four of them started chatting happily.

Curious, Qin Zhen asked, "How come you two suddenly got together this time? Was it you who made the first move, Chen Feng?"

Wu Mengting hastily said, "I was the one who took the initiative."

Qin Zhen chuckled and said, "No wonder. Chen Feng is so lazy. If you hadn’t made the first move, he’d still be like a lazy pig, and you wouldn’t be together now."

Wu Mengting laughed, saying, "That’s true, he used to ignore me completely."

"That shouldn’t be possible; how could he ignore such a beauty like you right in front of him?"

"But he did. After all, he doesn’t lack pretty women."

Qin Zhen laughed, "Indeed."

Chen Feng rolled his eyes at him and focused on eating.
