After my divorce, I started to have good luck-Chapter 714 - 387: Speechless_2

But this really isn’t what she wanted. She originally thought her parents and her aunt could offer her some support, apply some pressure on Chen Feng.

Now it seems, Chen Feng doesn’t put her family or relatives in his heart at all. Back then when he went home with her to meet her parents, it was just an act, not genuine.

In the end, she thought it was real and kept fantasizing and even planning how to push away other women around Chen Feng, to monopolize him.

It was really too wishful thinking!

"Don’t overthink it. If you don’t want to continue this kind of relationship, I won’t force you. I can understand. We can part amicably."

"No, I don’t want to break up with you." Liu Ying shook her head with a hoarse voice, then looked at Chen Feng with a sorrowful expression, "I said, I’ve fallen in love with you. How can I like anyone else?"

Chen Feng chuckled inwardly, reached out and lightly patted her cheek twice, and said with a smile, "You need to think it through. If you stay with me, you’ll only be an unnamed lover in the future. The only compensation I can give you is money, and not a lot. You’re already thirty years old; if you look closely, you might be able to find a good match, but if you wait a few more years, it will be really hard."

Liu Ying said firmly, "I’ve already decided on you. I’m willing to be your secret lover for a lifetime." Chen Feng smiled lightly and pulled her gently into his arms.

More than two hours later, the two lay side by side on the bed, covered with a thin blanket. Liu Ying leaned against Chen Feng’s chest, and said softly, "My aunt lives in the house opposite No. 8 Villa. She’s seen you and Mengting but doesn’t know you’re my boyfriend. What if she recognizes you tomorrow?"

Chen Feng laughed, "That’s simple. Just say Mengting is my mother’s goddaughter, and Little Rui is my assistant. It’s normal for them to stay at my place, right?"

"Then how do you explain I’m not staying at No. 8 Villa?"

"You can say you didn’t get along with Mengting, had some conflicts, and then decided to live separately."

"..."

Chen Feng’s explanations weren’t perfect, but at least they were plausible.

Liu Ying couldn’t come up with any objections, so she said with a trace of bitterness, "They will definitely say I have a big heart, and doubt your relationship with Mengting and them."

"Let them doubt then. Worst case, when they want to meet me after some time, you just say I hooked up with Little Rui, my assistant, and then broke up."

...

The next afternoon, around two o’clock, Chen Feng received Liu Ying’s parents and her aunt, Jiang Duangxiang, at No. 8 Villa.

Needless to say, Liu Ying’s parents he had met before, but it was the first time meeting her aunt, Jiang Duangxiang. Her appearance was uncriticizable; she even had a beauty mark on the corner of her mouth, must have been a stunning beauty when she was young, although now she was visibly chubby, and her temperament was vastly different from Mrs. Liu.

Mrs. Liu was the kind born into a scholarly family, an old intellectual type, whereas her blood sister had an obvious golden lady vibe, wearing gold earrings, gold necklaces, gold bracelets, gold rings, giving off a nouveau riche air, her speech full of such golden lady’s momentum.

"Little Chen, you’re really impressive to be able to buy this No. 8 Villa at such a young age, it’s truly remarkable. But, did you really achieve this without relying on your family’s elder connections?"

Jiang Duangxiang, facing Chen Feng, the owner of No. 8 Villa, showed no timidity; she knew those who lived there were not ordinary, but now she was the elder here, so she had the stance to maintain.

Chen Feng was kind enough to give Liu Ying some face, smiled and said, "My achievements are just small matters; in the eyes of the real bosses, it’s nothing."

Jiang Duangxiang nodded approvingly, smiling, "It’s good you have such a clear perspective. Unlike other young people who get cocky with a little success, tails raised sky-high, totally floating. Generally, such people don’t end well. Your humble attitude is commendable."

"Thank you for the compliment. But I’m just honestly speaking. My little achievements are truly just petty plays."

Jiang Duangxiang looked at Chen Feng with a smile and said, "So, you’re still not satisfied with your current achievements, ambition is admirable. I hope you achieve even greater success in the future."

Chen Feng laughed heartily, not continuing the topic, but reached out to invite them to sit in the living room, and then asked Liu Ying to pour tea for everyone.

The tea leaves were specifically bought by Liu Ying this morning, more than two thousand yuan a can, not the best, but decent enough.

"Little Chen, I heard from Little Ying that your film company is currently doing well, how much profit has it generated since its establishment?"

Jiang Duangxiang, this aunt, was indeed straightforward, directly inquiring about Fengmang Film and Television Company’s status.

Chen Feng didn’t know the exact profit, just roughly saying, "Probably about fifty to sixty million yuan in profit."

"Is it really that much? Isn’t it said your company has only been profitable for a few months?"

The three elders were somewhat skeptical, all turning to Liu Ying. After all, Liu Ying was the financial manager at Fengmang Film and Television, she certainly knew some inside information.

Liu Ying saw them looking at her, and slightly nodded, "It should be about this number. Most of the profits come from the blockbuster series ’Mountain Order’, which is still quite popular online."

Upon hearing this, the three elders, for the first time, felt the tangible scent of money on Chen Feng; a company can make fifty to sixty million in just a few months, that’s truly lucrative.

Jiang Duangxiang couldn’t help but feel a flutter in her heart. Before this, she didn’t have a particularly concrete sense of Chen Feng’s wealth; her family barely counted as owning near billion-dollar assets, but these were accumulated by her husband over twenty to thirty years of hard work.

Meanwhile, Chen Feng’s company, in a few short months, generated fifty to sixty million in profit, plus the two villas here at Red Villa Bay, surely Chen Feng’s wealth is over a billion, far wealthier than her family.

Before, Jiang Duangxiang thought Chen Feng must have some unspeakable background to buy this No. 8 Villa, maybe even holding it in trusteeship for someone else. Though not common, such things do happen.

Back in the country, certain people with special identities and their relatives can’t openly hold too much property, especially real estate, so they find trustworthy people to hold it for them, registering these properties under the trustee’s name.

Such things aren’t considered secrets in their golden lady circles, even if not seen firsthand, they’ve heard a lot. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

Therefore, when she learned from Liu Ying that Chen Feng came from a rural background, was an ordinary office worker until the end of last year, had divorced, and suddenly rose with over a billion in wealth, with two villas here at Red Villa Bay - one even at No. 8 Villa, symbolizing the highest status and wealth - her first thought was Chen Feng might be a trustee in this property hold.

But now, seeing Fengmang Film and Television Company easily earning so much, she had to overturn her previous guesses about Chen Feng’s identity.

Thus, for the next conversation, Jiang Duangxiang didn’t hold the elder’s stature, but actively chatted with Chen Feng about business insights. After all, she co-founded a business with her husband when younger and managed some company affairs, so it seemed she had some common topics with Chen Feng, the boss.

Naturally, during the discussion, she mentioned her husband’s business over the years: first taking over a nearly bankrupt printing factory and thriving, earning millions, then selling and opening a clothing factory, later selling most of its shares while retaining a minor share; afterward, starting a foreign trade company, which ran for over a decade.

Foreign trade business was good years ago, but lately, competition has sharpened, prices have become more transparent, and profitability has sharply declined, currently prompting her husband to consider another transformation.
