After my divorce, I started to have good luck-Chapter 872 - 467: Returning to Steady Life (Part 2)

Guo Mengyao replied instantly, sharing some information about her stepbrother that she heard from her mom. In fact, she herself isn't familiar with her stepbrother at all.

Guo Mengyao then switched to sending voice messages, which Chen Feng couldn't be bothered to listen to and just ignored outright.

He turned his attention back and briefly replied to express regrets to Fang Xiaoyue, and acknowledged that Yu Xiaohui would be coming to Xiu Zhou to visit him in a few days.

Lin Yujiao, knowing his temperament, didn't waste words. She just sent a smiley face at the end and didn't type out any more messages.

The next day came in a flash. Around seven-thirty in the morning, Chen Feng got up on time for morning exercise, as if his routine was returning to normal.

This time during his morning run, Chen Feng didn't run into Hong Xiaodan, which put his mind and body even more at ease.

He ran three laps around the large neighborhood, totaling about three kilometers. Then he went home to shower, put on a t-shirt, shorts, and sandals, and headed downstairs for breakfast.

By this time, Wu Mengting and Sun Xiaorui had already left for work.

After breakfast, he drove alone to meet Lin Yujiao for a date.

For once, instead of rushing straight to the villa for some exercise, he first took her to the shopping mall.

He had previously bought some summer clothes online, but changing them daily made them wear out quickly, so he needed to buy a few more sets. Of course, he also planned to buy some clothes for Lin Yujiao as gifts.

"Should I wear a mask?" Lin Yujiao asked Chen Feng with some concern as they were about to get out of the car in the mall's underground parking lot.

She had once participated in a singing competition show, appearing on TV and making quite a name for herself back in her hometown Xiu Zhou, where many people recognized her. She was worried about being recognized in this mall as well.

Chen Feng thought for a moment and said, "In this hot weather, wearing a mask might actually draw more attention."

"But what if I'm recognized?" Lin Yujiao asked.

Chen Feng chuckled and said, "So what if you're recognized? People might just assume we're a couple. Anyway, we're both still single now."

Lin Yujiao said softly, "I'm not worried about people thinking you're my boyfriend. I'm just afraid your other women might get jealous."

"Don't worry about it. Let's go."

After saying that, Chen Feng got out of the car. Lin Yujiao thought for a moment, then followed suit without wearing a mask.

At first, Lin Yujiao was a little nervous, worried about being recognized.

But she seemed to have overestimated her public recognition, as they wandered the mall for over an hour without a single person recognizing her.

This left her feeling both relieved and a bit disappointed.

Once they had both finished shopping, Chen Feng led her out of the mall, planning to find a café for a sit-down before treating her to a nice lunch at noon.

As they took the elevator down to the parking garage, they unexpectedly ran into two acquaintances.

This kind of chance encounter had happened two or three times before, but Chen Feng still couldn't help but "thank" fate for its considerate arrangements when it happened again today.

Chen Feng intended to just brush past them, pretending not to know them, but the visibly agitated Tang Yue blocked his way.

"Chen Feng, you're something else. Another new one, huh? You really enjoy being a scumbag, swapping women like they're nothing."

Tang Yue's words didn't sit well with Chen Feng, who frowned and shot back, "Tang Yue, you'd better watch your mouth. Otherwise, you might never meet a good man in your lifetime."

Tang Yue flared up instantly, loudly accusing, "Are any of you men any good? You talk about good men—there's no good man among you!"

Chen Feng frowned and looked at his silent ex-wife, Shen Lin, angrily saying, "Shen Lin, aren't you going to control her while you're out? Letting her shout like a shrew, does that make you look good as a friend?"

Hearing this, Shen Lin finally reached out to pull Tang Yue, persuading, "Alright, let's go."

"Sister Lin, are you really going to let this heartless man go? You almost broke ties with your parents for him, but now look at him living it up with one woman after another, while you're left alone. You sacrificed so much for this scumbag, and yet you got nothing in return. It's just too unfair!"

Shen Lin remained silent.

Impatient, Chen Feng went forward and brushed aside the blocking Tang Yue, heading towards the elevator doors.

"Chen Feng, a scumbag like you will meet your karma sooner or later."

Tang Yue shouted angrily, a little hysterical from behind.

Chen Feng ignored her, not even turning his head. But Lin Yujiao, who was following him, couldn't stand it anymore. She stopped and turned around, angrily rebutting, "Are you brainless or were you hurt by another man? Even his ex-wife said nothing, so why are you, an outsider, barking like a mad dog?"

"You shameless woman! You're a woman too, and you have the face to scold me?"

Tang Yue was infuriated by the comment and charged over, trying to attack Lin Yujiao, but Shen Lin held her back tightly.

"Yu Jiao, why waste your breath on this crazy woman. Come on, let's go."

Chen Feng turned around and told Lin Yujiao, who then hurriedly followed Chen Feng out of the elevator holding her things.

"You damned woman, if you have the guts, don't leave! You filthy bitch, rotten slut."

Tang Yue continued to shout angrily, but Lin Yujiao grit her teeth and ignored, quickly following Chen Feng away.

Once they were back in Chen Feng's car, Lin Yujiao let out a long breath and couldn't help asking, "Is that woman really sick or something? She acts like she's got rabies."

Chen Feng explained briefly, "Her husband cheated on her, and she's been like this ever since."

Lin Yujiao wasn't surprised by this, and sneered, "If I were a man, I'd cheat too on a madwoman like that."

"Let's not talk about her. I'll take you for tea, or maybe an iced coffee. Your choice."

"Iced coffee. In this heat, it's more refreshing."

"Alright, let's get you an iced coffee."

Chen Feng drove Lin Yujiao to Laiman Coffee, where they took a window seat and ordered a cup of iced coffee each, sipping enjoyably.

It was only a little past nine in the morning, and not many people were there for coffee.

After a while, Lin Yujiao quietly asked Chen Feng in her hometown dialect, "Was that woman earlier your ex-wife? She's quite pretty."

Chen Feng nodded.

"Can you tell me how you two got divorced?" Lin Yujiao inquired softly, almost cautiously.

Chen Feng looked up slightly at her from under his brows and said, "Like that crazy woman said, I was a jerk."

"Did you cheat on her?" Lin Yujiao looked disbelieving. Despite how Chen Feng is now, she believed he was likely a good person before his divorce.

Seeing her expression, Chen Feng felt a bit gratified and chuckled, "Of course not. From falling in love to the divorce, I was faithful the whole time."

"Then why did you split? She seems like she still has some lingering feelings for you, doesn't seem like she's completely moved on," Lin Yujiao asked with a curious look.
