After my divorce, I started to have good luck-Chapter 1105 - 583: Stuck in the Mud (Part 2)

And for all these years, she could only buy those insincere friendships with money.

This world is truly unfair!

...

Chen Feng put down his phone, feeling speechless towards this woman, Sun Yanhong.

Last time he ran into Sun Yanhong, she tried to crudely insinuate that there was something going on between him and Liu Meijun.

At the time, Chen Feng merely thought that the two of them were on bad terms and that Sun Yanhong was deliberately making false accusations.

But now, from what she said, she really believed that there was an intimate relationship between him and Liu Meijun.

Such things are indeed difficult to clarify and can easily be misunderstood.

Chen Feng immediately felt like he was in a very embarrassing situation.

Fortunately, he didn’t need to worry too much about Sun Yanhong’s misunderstandings and false accusations; even if she spread rumors about him and Liu Meijun, it probably wouldn’t reach his circle of friends and acquaintances.

However, Chen Feng felt it necessary to remind Liu Meijun. They knew each other since they were young and were both locals of Xiu Zhou. Especially since Liu Meijun was divorced and single, if Sun Yanhong spread rumors, it would be a huge blow to her reputation.

So, Chen Feng called Liu Meijun, focusing on this matter.

After hearing him out, Liu Meijun was understandably furious and said, "I will warn her. If she spreads rumors, I won’t let her off easily."

Chen Feng could only say, "As long as you’re aware. If the rumors spread, they will be hard to clear up. It may not matter much for a guy like me, but as a woman, you need to be more careful. Try not to let Sun Yanhong talk nonsense."

"Okay, I got it. I’ll call her right away."

"Alright then, give her a call."

Chen Feng concluded the call with Liu Meijun straightforwardly.

And Liu Meijun immediately called Sun Yanhong.

"Sun Yanhong, I’m warning you, my relationship with Chen Feng is innocent and clear. It’s one thing if you make wild guesses, but if you spread rumors, I won’t let you off."

As soon as the call connected, Liu Meijun’s tone was sharp. It was hard to blame her; her relationship with Chen Feng was indeed innocent. Moreover, ever since her divorce, she hadn’t been with any other man, keeping a clean reputation. Why would she let Sun Yanhong tarnish it with slander?

The main issue was that a lot of people in their social circles overlapped. If Sun Yanhong spread rumors, many of her relatives and friends would hear about it, causing her social death. The image of integrity she sustained for over a decade would collapse.

Of course, Sun Yanhong understood that, and she laughed lightly to retaliate, "What will you do if you don’t let me off? Besides, you’re so hypocritical, daring to do but afraid to admit. Even if you and Chen Feng have something, what’s the big deal? Aren’t you single? Or is Chen Feng married, perhaps? Haha."

Hearing Sun Yanhong’s words made her suddenly come to her senses. She and Chen Feng seemed to both be divorced and single. Even if Chen Feng now had many women, he indeed wasn’t married. As for her, there’s no need to mention, she’s been divorced for over ten years and living a single life for just as long.

Even if there was something between her and Chen Feng, it would be normal; neither of them has any commitments, so outsiders shouldn’t judge.

Previously, she felt outraged by Chen Feng’s words about Sun Yanhong slandering her, and it hadn’t occurred to her.

But then again, she and Chen Feng were genuinely innocent. If Sun Yanhong insisted they had something, she would definitely be angry.

"Of course, he isn’t married. He divorced last year and is currently single. No matter what, don’t slander my relationship with him; we are purely innocent. If you continue to damage my reputation, I’ll expose all your dirty laundry over the years, including keeping a toy boy."

Sun Yanhong was stunned and got a bit scared. Though those things were known to her acquaintances, if it got out, it would be entirely different.

If her matters got out, not only would she and her husband lose face, but their families would also be shamed.

"Fine, fine, I’m afraid of you. Didn’t expect you to be so ruthless. What good does it do you to expose my scandal about keeping a toy boy?"

"Then what good does it do you to slander my relationship with Chen Feng?"

"Do you really think I’m slandering you? You both know what’s going on between you two."

"What do we know? We are completely innocent," Liu Meijun said angrily.

Sun Yanhong chuckled, "Liu Meijun, do you know why I have always disliked you? Just one word: fake. You’re pretty good at acting. Ever since I met you in middle school, you’ve always been pretending—pretending to be a good student, pretending to be aloof, pretending to be a goddess. You’ve been doing this for so many years."

Hearing this, Liu Meijun wasn’t particularly angry because she knew she did tend to act a bit aloof, which was partly why she ended up divorcing back then.

Indeed, your greatest rival often knows you best.

So, Liu Meijun softened her tone and said, "Okay, I admit I can be a bit fake, but there’s really nothing between Chen Feng and me."

"Alright, I’ll just assume you two are innocent. But can you really say you’ve never had feelings for him? Last time I saw you two coming out of a tea house together, you were walking side by side, very close. You moved closer to him yourself. I know you well enough to know you have a cleanliness obsession. Normally, you don’t get close to people; even if someone stands several meters away, you might feel uncomfortable.

Moreover, when you looked at him back then, there was a light in your eyes, the kind only there when a woman admires or even loves a man she’s attracted to. We’re both women, both in our forties, both married before, and you have a kid already in their teens. Don’t tell me you don’t understand your feelings and see him merely as an ordinary friend?"

Liu Meijun was left speechless. In her heart, did she honestly never have any feelings for Chen Feng? Apparently not.

A man like Chen Feng, even though she’d been calm for over a decade, now whenever she met him, she felt comfortable and enjoyed their chats. She wished to spend more time with him.

She previously believed it was just human nature, much like men enjoying the company of beautiful women.

It was simply an appreciation of the opposite sex, and considering their age difference and Chen Feng’s playboy nature, she genuinely never seriously considered anything with him.

Moreover, she knew very well that Chen Feng wouldn’t be interested in someone like her. With his wealth, surrounded by beautiful young women, how could he possibly notice her?

Therefore, when she was alone with Chen Feng, she was always proper and disciplined, at most offering advice like a sister, appearing slightly closer.

But that’s all; at most, she and Chen Feng had an appreciative brother-sister relationship.
