After my divorce, I started to have good luck-Chapter 778 - 421: A Clear Conscience

Qin Zhen was preparing lunch, and before eating, Chen Feng called Sun Xiaorui and asked her to come over for the meal, and to start keeping in touch with Pei Lei more frequently.

By the time Sun Xiaorui arrived, Pei Lei had also finished preparing the dishes.

To be honest, the dishes she cooked tasted okay, but to say they were delicious would be a bit of an exaggeration.

From Chen Feng's perspective, her skill was a bit lacking compared to Sun Xiaorui and Wu Mengting.

Of course, this might also be due to differences in cuisine and taste preferences. Chen Feng is from Lu City and doesn't eat spicy food, preferring sweeter and lighter flavors.

While Pei Lei is from Sichuan Province, she mainly cooks spicy dishes, but Chen Feng and Qin Zhen aren't particularly fond of spicy food.

This time, the dishes Pei Lei prepared clearly took their non-spicy eating habits into consideration, with seven dishes in total. Only one dish, stir-fried beef with lantern peppers, was slightly spicy, the rest weren't.

This is really tough for a Sichuan native who loves spicy food.

During the meal, Sun Xiaorui actively chatted with Pei Lei, and Pei Lei seemed to have a good impression of Sun Xiaorui, the two women quickly hit it off in conversation.

Qin Zhen was pleased to see this and took out a treasured bottle of Wuliangye to drink with Chen Feng, who obliged and drank a glass with him.

After the meal, Sun Xiaorui and Pei Lei seemed to become good friends, chatting and joking together in the bedroom, getting along well.

Meanwhile, in the living room, Chen Feng and Qin Zhen were watching TV and chatting over tea.

"I think Little Rui is quite nice. I wonder how you plan to treat her in the future? She's a good woman, even if you don't want her in the future, you shouldn't mistreat her," Qin Zhen said thoughtfully.

Chen Feng replied with some seriousness, "Of course, I would never mistreat her."

Qin Zhen then smiled and asked, "You have so many women now, who will you choose in the future? Are you really going to choose Mengting? Haven't you considered the others? Like Mengyao, Little Rui?"

Chen Feng rolled his eyes at him in annoyance. In the past, he would have clearly said he would choose Wu Mengting, but now it was hard to be that decisive.

Chen Feng was actually quite satisfied with Sun Xiaorui, and sometimes subconsciously felt she was more suitable to live with him. After all, a gentle and lovely woman like her, who is submissive, undemanding, beautiful, and good at cooking and housework, is becoming increasingly rare nowadays.

In comparison, Wu Mengting is now somewhat career-driven, and her personality is becoming more assertive, which Chen Feng doesn't like.

But, when considering all aspects and analyzing them rationally, Wu Mengting undeniably has a slight edge.

Firstly, Wu Mengting and he are both from Lu City and have already gained his parents' approval. Secondly, Wu Mengting is more suited to help him manage his various affairs and business, not to mention that Wu Mengting is slightly more beautiful, more educated and graceful, and Chen Feng is her first love.

As for their relationship, when Wu Mengting met Chen Feng, there wasn't much of a utilitarian motive or monetary inducement.

Sun Xiaorui, on the other hand, was kept by Chen Feng right from the start, and their relationship was initially based on money and physical exchange, which inevitably creates some blemishes.

However, the agreement Chen Feng made with Wu Mengting for a six-month period is something he somewhat regrets in hindsight.

A man who loves playing in the flowerbeds finds it hard to love just one flower again.

Previously, Chen Feng was moved by Mengxue's deep affection for him, and he couldn't ensure that he would be 100% alive after six months, which led to the agreement for a six-month period.

But as the days of the six-month period draw near, his health has been getting better, and after living with Wu Mengting and making her the second-in-command at Fengmang Film and Television Company, her career focus and assertiveness increased, which made Chen Feng a bit dissatisfied.

He even gradually felt that he actually preferred the current "carefree" single life, and when thinking about getting married again in the future and returning to the cage of love and family, there were some vague worries and resistance.

To put it simply, he felt that being single now was actually pretty good, with enough money to spend and no shortage of women.

If he were to marry Wu Mengting in the future, firstly, his finances might be controlled by Wu Mengting, and even though he's not one to spend money recklessly, he doesn't want others controlling his financial authority. Secondly, besides Wu Mengting, he'd have to break off with other women.

In the past, asking him to sever ties with other women, though a bit reluctant, wouldn't have seemed too difficult. After all, if you truly love a woman, it's completely acceptable and necessary to cut off relationships with other women for her.

Yet now, he feels he hasn't truly fallen in love with Wu Mengting, at least not deeply enough, because now, for him to end relationships with other women, especially Sun Xiaorui, seems very difficult.

"You're having fun now, but I'm really worried about your future. So many women, are you sure you can handle them? It looks like you're bound for some serious trouble in the future."

Qin Zhen used to somewhat envy Chen Feng's charm with women, but now he's devoted to Pei Lei, and other women don't mean much to him. Thinking about Chen Feng's women, each more troublesome than the last, he's sure Chen Feng will face some big challenges in the future.

For this reason, Qin Zhen even felt some sympathy for the tragic situation he foresaw for Chen Feng.

"Thanks for the advice. However, I'm rich. As long as I'm willing to spend money, there isn't a woman I can't handle."

Chen Feng's outward confidence belied his inner doubts. Many issues couldn't be solved with money, especially matters of the heart.

"You still haven't said who you plan to marry. You didn't answer earlier, does that mean you're not planning to marry Mengting?"

Qin Zhen had known Chen Feng for over a decade and was very familiar with his personality. Being a police officer himself, his observational and reasoning skills were outstanding, and he quickly picked up on something.

"I don't want to get married for now. Especially after going through a failed marriage just last year, I don't want it even more. I have some marriage anxiety now. Unfortunately, I'd previously agreed with Mengting to a six-month period, saying that when the time came, I would date her and cut ties with other women. Honestly, I'm a bit regretful now."

Chen Feng was relatively candid with Qin Zhen.

Upon hearing this, Qin Zhen didn't disdain him; he simply shook his head and said, "One promise, one deed. As men, if we make a promise, we should keep it. If you can't, why make that promise in the first place?"

Chen Feng sighed and said, "Circumstances change. At the time, I thought I could abandon the whole forest for this one phoenix tree, but now I realize it's difficult."

Qin Zhen shook his head, saying, "It seems like you don't love her enough. If you truly loved a woman, like I do for Pei Lei, I could give up other women for her."

Chen Feng couldn't refute this because it was indeed the truth.
