After my divorce, I started to have good luck-Chapter 788 - 426: Cinderella
Chen Feng got out of the car first, then opened the rear door.
Seeing Chu Xiaoling sitting in the back seat of the Cayenne, the three roommates all had surprised expressions.
"Thank you all."
Chu Xiaoling spoke first, with an embarrassed look on her face. Normally, she was either attending class or going out to work, and even though almost the whole academic year had passed, she hadn't really spent much time communicating with these three roommates.
She had just briefly mentioned her situation to her dorm leader, Guo Yixiu, via WeChat, asking her to come downstairs to pick her up.
Unexpectedly, the other two in the dorm also came down, which made her feel somewhat touched.
"Little Ling, are you okay?"
Guo Yixiu spoke first, expressing concern for Chu Xiaoling. She was the oldest in the dorm, a year older than Chu Xiaoling, and usually had a big sister demeanor, taking good care of Chu Xiaoling.
"It's nothing serious, just sprained my arm and foot."
"That's good, I was worried you got seriously hurt and couldn't walk."
Guo Yixiu said with a sigh of relief.
The other two roommates didn't say anything, just looked curiously at Chen Feng.
"By the way, is this your... friend?"
Guo Yixiu asked tentatively, her lively eyes also curiously examining Chen Feng.
Chu Xiaoling paused, momentarily unsure of how to introduce Chen Feng. Calling him a friend didn't quite fit, yet labeling him as a kind stranger felt distant and inappropriate.
Luckily, Chen Feng quickly spoke up to introduce himself: "Hello, I am Chen Feng, a friend of Little Ling. These days Little Ling's leg and arm aren't convenient, so please help take care of her."
"So he really is a friend." Guo Yixiu beamed brightly, extending her hand towards Chen Feng, "Hello, my name is Guo Yixiu, I'm Little Ling's roommate and close friend. Nice to meet you."
Seeing her being so straightforward, Chen Feng politely shook her hand briefly.
As for the other two girls, they didn't introduce themselves, and Chen Feng couldn't be bothered to meet them, saying: "Please help Little Ling then."
"Sure, Little Ling, I'll help you."
Guo Yixiu smiled as she walked over to aid Chu Xiaoling out of the car, and the other two girls also came over to help.
Seeing this, Chen Feng waved to them and said: "I'll be going now."
Chen Feng had really gone above and beyond, taking her to the hospital and then sending her back to school, truly doing all he could.
Once Chen Feng sat in the driver's seat, Chu Xiaoling finally reacted, waving her hand towards Chen Feng and loudly thanking him: "Brother Chen, thank you!"
Chen Feng didn't speak but waved his hand out the car window before quickly starting the car and driving away.
The four girls watched Chen Feng's car leave, and Guo Yixiu asked Chu Xiaoling: "Little Ling, how did you meet this friend? Judging by his car, he must be quite wealthy, right?"
"Probably. I'm not really sure."
Chu Xiaoling replied rather absent-mindedly.
"How could you not be sure? Isn't he your friend?"
Another roommate named Li Xiaoyu pressed on, she had the best family background in the dorm, receiving a monthly allowance of five thousand from home. Her phone and computer were all Apple products, and her cosmetics cost thousands.
Those were things Chu Xiaoling couldn't compare to at all.
In terms of looks, Li Xiaoyu was also quite attractive. She was from Wu State, although she was a bit short, not even reaching 1.6 meters, her figure was graceful, her demeanor enchanting, and her voice soft, exhibiting the delicate womanly charm of Jiangnan water towns, capturing the attention of many boys. Indeed, she had several pursuers.
"Yeah, don't say you just met him."
The last roommate, Zheng Yan Ni, chimed in. She was from Shan State, with a typical southern accent, and although she ranked bottom in looks within the dorm, she wasn't ugly; still above the passing line in appearance, plus she had a large bust which also attracted the attention of boys, currently flirting with two simultaneously. In the dorm, she usually followed Li Xiaoyu around.
Faced with their questioning, Chu Xiaoling hesitated for a moment, but eventually honestly nodded and said: "I just met him. Met him yesterday."
"How is that possible?"
Li Xiaoyu and the others were all shocked.
"He just met you yesterday and treats you so well? Even driving you to the hospital and sending you back? Tell us, how did you meet him?"
Li Xiaoyu was determined to get to the bottom of it.
"Alright, let's get Little Ling upstairs first and talk later."
Guo Yixiu interrupted Li Xiaoyu's questioning and began to help Chu Xiaoling into the dorm building.
Seeing this, Li Xiaoyu and Zheng Yan Ni quickly followed, and under Li Xiaoyu's signal, Zheng Yan Ni stepped forward to jointly help move Chu Xiaoling back to their third-floor dorm.
The dorm building they lived in was somewhat aged, but fortunately renovated two years ago, a four-person dorm with a private bathroom and a small balcony, overall quite decent.
The four of them entered the dorm, closed the door, and Li Xiaoyu continued her curious questioning of Chu Xiaoling, evidently intrigued by Chen Feng.
Chu Xiaoling could only honestly recount how she met Chen Feng.
The three other girls were left dumbfounded.
Guo Yixiu was the first to sigh: "You're really lucky. If his car had been going too fast or too close to you, it could've run over you."
Chu Xiaoling nodded quickly, still feeling the lingering fear: "Yes. At that moment, seeing myself only two or three meters away from the tire, I was petrified. Fortunately, Brother Chen came to help me up and sent me to the hospital, covering my medical expenses. He's truly a good person, and I'll find a way to repay him in the future."
Li Xiaoyu said with a teasing smile: "Isn't this the classic Cinderella meeting Prince Charming story? Although this Mr. Chen looks slightly older, he's quite handsome with an attractive aura, most importantly, he's wealthy. The Cayenne he drives costs at least one hundred twenty thousand, if it's his own, his wealth must start at ten million."
Chu Xiaoling, cheeks flushed, shook her head quickly: "You're mistaken. It's not what you think. Brother Chen just took pity on me, and having met me twice yesterday and today—and almost hitting me this time—he decided to help."
"Little Ling, you don't understand men," Li Xiaoyu shook her head with a knowing smile, "There's no such thing as unconditional love in this world. If he helps you this much, there must be a reason you make him willing to help. Unless being young and pretty, I can't think of any other reason."
Zheng Yan Ni nodded in agreement: "Xiaoyu is right. There's no man who doesn't like beautiful women. Guys like him, wealthy and good-looking, especially love pursuing young, beautiful female college students like us."
Chu Xiaoling thought for a moment, then firmly shook her head: "You're really mistaken. He's not the kind of man you're talking about. Besides... someone like me, how could he possibly be interested?"
