After my divorce, I started to have good luck-Chapter 713 - 387: Speechless

Liu Ying’s so-called "heartfelt confession" made Chen Feng only chuckle to himself.

"A meek woman" could decisively marry a foreigner, live abroad for so long, and then decisively divorce, abandoning both husband and child to return home.

Could such things truly be done by a meek woman?

Of course, Chen Feng wouldn’t be foolish enough to delve into the authenticity of her words, since they were merely in a sugar baby relationship, only using what could be used without involving too much emotion.

Chen Feng helped her over to the sofa to sit down, then placed both hands on her shoulders, looking into her slightly tear-reddened eyes, and said seriously, "I’ve read all the messages you sent me. Since you’ve realized your mistake and are willing to continue living here, I certainly won’t abandon you. Everything will stay the same, as long as you don’t cause any new drama."

Liu Ying immediately nodded while choking up and said, "I promise, I won’t anymore. I won’t have unrealistic hopes anymore, I... I’ll just be your lover, is that okay? I won’t ask for any status from you."

Listening to her pleading voice, her weak tone, even though Chen Feng knew she was partly acting, his male vanity was greatly satisfied.

"As long as you stay quiet, and don’t try to upgrade your status or even talk about marriage, I definitely won’t let you down." "Mm, mm. I’ll definitely behave." Liu Ying cried as she snuggled into Chen Feng’s arms, holding him tightly.

After a while, Liu Ying finally spoke softly, "My parents and my aunt must come over tomorrow as guests, especially my aunt who lives right across from No. 8 Villa. They must meet you. What do you think we should do?"

Chen Feng frowned when he heard this, as he really didn’t want to keep deceiving her family.

But who could blame him for being tempted by her body, and since he had already played a part once, doing it again didn’t seem like a big deal.

However, it definitely couldn’t go on like this indefinitely. After this time, if her family kept wanting to visit or asked him to visit, he certainly didn’t have the patience for that.

"Since they want to come, let them. But this sort of thing can’t go on forever. We both know we’re not really a couple, and there’s no chance we’ll get engaged or married in the future. So after this time, if they still want to come as guests or want me to visit your home, just say we’re in a cold war, or simply say we’ve broken up."

Liu Ying anxiously said, "How can that be? I’ve told them we’re very much in love, especially my aunt, who often visits me. We can’t pretend to break up; she wouldn’t believe it."

Chen Feng laughed and said, "What’s the problem? Just say that even after breaking up, we’re still good friends, and you can continue living in my villa for free. However, if you feel it’s inappropriate to stay here, I’ll find another place for you to avoid unnecessary hassles."

"I... I still think pretending to break up is not good," Liu Ying said with a pained expression. "My parents have a very good impression of you. If we pretend to break up, how can I explain it to them? They’ll be extremely upset."

Chen Feng replied nonchalantly, "Then just say I cheated, that I found another woman. In that case, your parents surely won’t oppose you breaking up with me."

"..."

Liu Ying was speechless.

Chen Feng gently caressed her face and said, "Be good, this is the best way. Otherwise, what do we do if your parents force us to get engaged or married? So pretending to break up is the best solution."

Liu Ying felt a wave of grievance in her heart and choked up, "But what if my parents then force me to go on blind dates?"

"Then just say you still can’t forget me and want to win me back. Act as if you’re deeply in love with me, unable to let go. Can your parents really force you? When you married your ex-husband, I’m sure your parents were firmly against it too, but didn’t you ultimately marry him and even give him a son?"

This remark left Liu Ying speechless again. Back then, she indeed lost her mind, fooled by the sweet words of that Chinese-American ex-husband, thinking he was a moderately well-off millionaire. It was only after getting married that she found out he was a fake millionaire with an annual salary of merely around 120,000 to 130,000 US Dollars, with parents who had little savings and no tradition of supporting their son’s family expenses.

Her ex-husband’s salary barely maintained a middle-class lifestyle in the Beautiful Country, and while this level might be somewhat adequate nationwide there, it was definitely not in the rich category. Plus, they were living in a big city in the Beautiful Country, where the cost of living was sky-high, with various taxes.

This led her family to avoid major expenses, calculating every day, and ultimately forced her to go out and work. Coupled with the unfamiliar environment, racial discrimination, security issues, and job dissatisfaction, life became increasingly oppressive.

Those years of marriage abroad now always give her the urge to slap herself when she thinks about it. It was a scar.

Chen Feng deliberately brought this up, making her feel embarrassed, but it was a fact she couldn’t deny.

Moreover, honestly, Chen Feng’s method was indeed the best way to free herself from her parents’ constraints, since Chen Feng genuinely had no intention of developing further with her, much less marrying her.
