After my divorce, I started to have good luck-Chapter 915 - 489: The Hidden Big Shot

After Wu Mengting and the other women finished their porridge, Chen Feng left with them without saying much to Jin Xinyan and the other two.

Only after Chen Feng and the others left did the three of them get up and leave.

On the way down, Kang Cheng kept encouraging Jin Xinyan to pursue Chen Feng because a diamond bachelor like Chen Feng is really rare, and it would be such a pity to miss out.

Witnessing this scene made Huang Xiaolu inwardly furious yet she was helpless.

After all, she knew that the strength Chen Feng displayed this time was overwhelming. The cousin she originally had high hopes for hadn't even started competing with Chen Feng and had already given up. What could she do?

Jin Xinyan drove herself over, while Huang Xiaolu chose to ride with Kang Cheng; she left on her own.

In the car, Huang Xiaolu couldn't hold back any longer and started complaining and venting about her cousin, saying he embarrassed her in front of her friend Jin Xinyan. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

Kang Cheng, with his good temper, let her speak for a while before helplessly saying, "It's not that I don't want to fight for it, but can I really win against someone like Chen Feng? It's not that I'm saying you introduced me to Xinyan knowing full well she has a thing with him; isn't that setting me up? Thankfully, I'm still clean with Xinyan. Otherwise, if he found out and sought revenge, I wouldn't even know how I died."

"You're exaggerating," Huang Xiaolu pouted. "At most, he's just richer than you. Besides, he doesn't even care about Xinyan that much. Didn't you see he didn't even greet her at the porridge shop? He doesn't care about Xinyan at all, yet others aren't allowed to pursue her? That's so domineering."

Kang Cheng chuckled bitterly, "It's not about being domineering. It's about a man's possessiveness. You don't understand the possessiveness of successful men. To put it bluntly, in the eyes of those men, even a woman they've abandoned shouldn't be allowed to have new love and romance. Otherwise, they will surely seek revenge.

Even if Chen Feng isn't that possessive, until I'm 100% sure, I shouldn't pursue Xinyan. Otherwise, the risk is too great and not worth it."

"I think you're just timid," Huang Xiaolu said displeasedly. "I really misjudged you before. I always thought you were daring and courageous."

Kang Cheng retorted irritably, "It's not about being timid. It's about whether it's worth it. Do you think Xinyan is worth me taking such a big risk to offend a big shot like Chen Feng?

Not to mention that he knows Tao Yaoyang from Hengsen Fund, and Yaoyang has a good relationship with my boss, with business dealings between them. If Chen Feng so much as pressures my boss through him, my boss would fire me instantly."

What Kang Cheng said made Huang Xiaolu understand, though she was somewhat skeptical, "Is this Tao Yaoyang really that intimidating? Plus, didn't you say your boss values you a lot?"

Kang Cheng smiled self-deprecatingly, "Valuing me is one thing, but it comes at a price. To him, I'm just a convenient tool, not irreplaceable. Firing me would cause him almost no loss. But Tao Yaoyang is a business partner, a crucial connection that he needs to maintain. Losing Tao Yaoyang would be a significant loss. So, when choosing between the two, who do you think he'll pick?"

Huang Xiaolu was rendered speechless. Though young, she wasn't without sense, and Kang Cheng had explained the stakes in detail.

She also knew that this cousin of hers valued his current job very much, and it indeed brought him and their family prestige. Losing it would truly be a shame.

After a long silence, Huang Xiaolu finally said, "Then you shouldn't keep pushing Xinyan to chase after Chen Feng. He's just a jerk with so many women around him. Aren't you pushing her into a pit of fire?"

Kang Cheng sighed, "She already has a thing with Chen Feng, and it's clear that their relationship hasn't fully ended. The main point is that Xinyan still has feelings for him. Even if I don't say anything, will she give up on a diamond bachelor like Chen Feng?"

Huang Xiaolu couldn't argue and just pouted in frustration.

She didn't like the "old man" Chen Feng from the beginning. Even though her view of him changed a bit later, due to Jin Xinyan's own revelations, her impression of Chen Feng became poor again, and it's no different now.

"In the future, don't meddle in Xinyan's love life. Whether you can manage or not, getting involved might just make the situation worse for everyone involved.

This time I can say I fell into your trap. Luckily, my mind turned quickly before, and I proactively added Chen Feng on WeChat, showing submission and hoping he gets my message and won't retaliate."

Kang Cheng's words made Huang Xiaolu realize the real reason behind his earlier behavior, and her resentment immediately faded, replaced by a touch of sourness.

Previously, Kang Cheng was the pinnacle of the younger generation in her eyes: wealthy family background, humorous, confident, highly educated, intelligent, and handsome; he had it all.

But now it seems that behind the glamorous facade lies struggles unknown to others.

This outstanding man was thoroughly overshadowed in front of a hidden boss like Chen Feng, who didn't flaunt his power.

The ceiling is just the ceiling, not a floor above.

Chen Feng is the man upstairs. Before, those people were downstairs, unaware, and really underestimated him.

On Chen Feng's side, there were two cars, one his and the other Wu Mengting's.

Since it was already past midnight, Lin Wan, who lived far from Red Villa Bay, decided not to go back but stayed overnight with Wu Mengting.

Lu Sijia's place wasn't too far from Red Villa Bay, but since it wasn't on the way, she volunteered to stay overnight at Red Villa Bay.

The No. 8 Villa had plenty of empty rooms, each well-equipped with beds and bedding, and since it was midsummer, spending a night there was more convenient. Chen Feng couldn't refuse.

So, the five of them returned to Red Villa Bay. Since it was late, they didn't talk much, simply returning to their rooms to shower and sleep.

The next morning, due to his biological clock, Chen Feng naturally woke up a little after seven and started his morning exercise.

This time, he was alone; Wu Mengting and Sun Xiaorui couldn't wake up, probably because they went to bed too late last night.

After running two laps, Chen Feng stopped at an outdoor area with exercise equipment. Just as he finished a few sit-ups, he saw Hong Xiaodan, whom he hadn't seen for a while; her once-short hair had grown slightly longer, making her a bit unfamiliar to his eyes.

"Chen Feng, you're still so disciplined, huh? Already up and exercising so early." Hong Xiaodan approached him naturally to greet him.
