Chapter 182: The Unfeeling Man

After her parents divorced, Guo Mengyao learned to be strong, independent, and to work hard. But every night when she was alone, she would secretly cry under the covers.

She longed for someone to accompany her, to talk to, to encourage her, to rely on each other, and to keep each other warm.

In college, her husband gave her this illusion. With his good looks and eloquence, she thought she had found a support. But after she got pregnant, she found that it was all a self-deceiving illusion.

From then on, she swore in her heart that she would never believe in love or men again.

Until she met Chen Feng, her “first love” that she had a crush on in her girlhood. Her original oath slowly began to break.

At first, it could only be said that she had been “single” for too long. After meeting her first love, she unconsciously felt a little happy to see him, and wanted to make up for the regrets of her youth.

To put it simply, she just wanted to play. But after playing a few times, she became a little addicted, and even developed an possessiveness that she shouldn’t have.

She also realized that this was a bit inappropriate, but it was still difficult to resist. That’s how love is. At first, you may just be in a playful mood, but after you get in deep, you find it hard to extricate yourself.

She was worried that she would meet the wrong person again, and she was also annoyed that Chen Feng, her old classmate and first love, was so unromantic and didn’t take her seriously.

But no matter what, now that she needed help and support the most, Chen Feng stood up decisively.

The little resentment she had for Chen Feng in her heart immediately disappeared, and all that was left was full of emotion.

Chen Feng going to Guangcheng to help her and give her courage was mainly out of a desire to build a good relationship with her and to prepare for his own affairs after his death.

In addition, of course, it was also because of his special relationship with Guo Mengyao now.

Although the two of them seemed to be just taking what they needed from each other, limited to the physical, it was also very natural for feelings to develop over time.

What’s more, the two of them were old classmates.

After hanging up the phone, Chen Feng booked a plane ticket to Guangcheng in the afternoon on his mobile phone.

Lin Yujiao, who was lying next to him, had of course woken up by now. She had roughly heard the whole process. After Chen Feng put down his phone, she asked with some resentment, “Are you going to Guangcheng?”

“Yes,” Chen Feng said apologetically as he hugged her. “Guo Mengyao is in trouble. In addition, I also want to invest in her company. This is a rare opportunity. I have to go and help her, so that she will owe me a favor.”

“Did you sleep with her?” Lin Yujiao was not stupid and directly hit the core of the problem.

Chen Feng was a little embarrassed, but he still said truthfully, “Yes, we slept together. But we are not involved in feelings, just a purely physical relationship.”

“Hehe, she’s a married woman.”

Although Lin Yujiao was very obedient, she couldn’t help but feel a little emotional when she got confirmation from Chen Feng’s mouth.

Chen Feng reached out and pinched her a little harder, then said unhappily, “She and her husband have been separated for almost a year. This time, her husband even colluded with outsiders to plot against her and force her to divide the family property…”

“No matter what, she’s not divorced yet, is she?”

Chen Feng was a little speechless and pinched her hard again.

After Lin Yujiao cried out in pain, Chen Feng said with satisfaction, “Alright. Don’t be so jealous. Anyway, whether it’s you, Guo Mengyao, or even Mengting, it’s impossible for me to marry any of you. You are all the same.”

“Unfeeling man!”

Lin Yujiao evaluated him with some indignation.

Chen Feng smiled and didn’t care. He got out of bed and said to her, “You go to Longhua Street to see it yourself today. You can also contact Mengting and go with her. Oh, damn, she seems to be coming to my house to pay a New Year’s visit today.”

Chen Feng quickly picked up his phone and looked at it. Sure enough, Wu Mengting had left him a message more than an hour ago, saying that she was preparing to set off for his house.

It was about nine o’clock at that time, and it was already ten-thirty. Needless to say, she must be on her way now.

If she had arrived and saw that he was not at home, she should have contacted him by now.

Just as he was thinking this, Chen Feng’s phone rang. It was his mother’s call.

Chen Feng quickly answered. Sure enough, his mother told him that Wu Mengting had arrived at his house and asked where he was.
Chen Feng had to tell the “truth.” An old classmate had opened a cosmetics factory, and he wanted to invest in her company. He planned to fly to Guangcheng this afternoon to see it in person, and he could only come back tomorrow at the earliest.

Hearing that Chen Feng was busy with business, Zhao Xiaolan couldn’t ask him to come home.

After hanging up his mother’s call, Chen Feng sent a WeChat message to Wu Mengting to apologize.

Wu Mengting was obviously next to Zhao Xiaolan just now. She asked if the old classmate he was talking about was Guo Mengyao, and also asked him what he was going to do in Guangcheng. Guo Mengyao’s company had moved to Linnan, and she knew it.

Chen Feng had to explain to her again that her company had not completely moved over.

Wu Mengting was obviously not stupid. She knew that Chen Feng and Guo Mengyao were a little ambiguous, but she was not Chen Feng’s girlfriend anymore, so she couldn’t question him about anything. She just reminded Chen Feng that Guo Mengyao was a married woman and asked him to keep a proper social distance.

Chen Feng found it funny in his heart, but he still humbly accepted her reminder.

After dealing with his mother and Wu Mengting, Chen Feng said to Lin Yujiao, who was getting up and getting dressed, “Mengting is at my house now for a New Year’s visit. Why don’t you contact her and ask her to go to Longhua Street with you this afternoon?”

“Is that okay? She just came from the city, and you’re asking her to go again.”

Lin Yujiao asked with some hesitation.

“Didn’t she say she wanted to help you before? Besides, I’m not at home. It’s boring for her to stay at my house alone. It’s better to go to Longhua Street with you.”

After thinking for a moment, Lin Yujiao nodded and said, “Alright then. I’ll contact her. If she doesn’t go, I’ll go alone.”

Speaking of this, she hesitated for a moment and asked, “Should I also go to your house to pay a New Year’s visit?”

Chen Feng glanced at her and said with a smile, “You can do whatever you want. It’s fine to go, and it’s fine not to go.”

Lin Yujiao quickly said, “Then I’ll go too. After all, I attended your birthday last time, and I’ve met all your family members. It’s not good not to go. I’ll tell Mengting first, and then I’ll go to your house to pay a New Year’s visit this afternoon.”

“Whatever you want.”

After Chen Feng finished speaking, he went to wash up.

After eating a simple lunch with Lin YJiao at the hotel, the two of them went their separate ways.

Chen Feng didn’t let her drive him to the airport. Instead, he drove to the airport himself. He was planning to come back tomorrow anyway, so it was no problem to park at the airport parking lot for a day.
The plane took off at a little after two in the afternoon. Two hours later, they arrived at Guangcheng Airport. Guo Mengyao personally came to pick him up.

“I’ve already made an appointment with Xue Jun and Sister Li for tonight. Are you coming with me?”

After getting into the car and starting it, Guo Mengyao spoke.

Chen Feng readily agreed, “Of course I’ll go with you. No matter what, I’ll definitely support you.”

“You’re so nice.” Guo Mengyao was a little moved and turned her head slightly to look at Chen Feng in the passenger seat. Then she collected herself and said, “I plan to talk to them calmly first. One of the options is that Xue Jun and I will buy back Sister Li’s shares together. I only need 10%, and the remaining 15% will be given to Xue Jun; the other option is also to make the biggest concession, that is, after I buy back all of Sister Li’s shares, I will sell 5% to Xue Jun at a low price.”

Chen Feng thought for a moment and said, “It’s definitely not feasible to buy back together. Selling 5% of the shares at a low price obviously can’t satisfy his appetite. He’s already torn his face with you now. How can he let it go and give you a chance to breathe?”

Guo Mengyao sighed slightly, “Yes. I’m just afraid his appetite is too big. Now, it’s obviously very difficult to end this peacefully. Unless I give him enough benefits.”

Chen Feng shook his head and said, “He’s not stupid. He knows that if you get through this, you will definitely find a way to deal with him in the future.”

Guo Mengyao gritted her teeth and said, “I can swear to him that we will just pretend that nothing happened this time. We will let bygones be bygones and continue to make money together.”

Chen Feng continued to shake his head, “He won’t believe you. If you were him, you wouldn’t believe him either. The foundation of trust between you has been destroyed.”

Guo Mengyao said in a relaxed tone, “Let’s try it first. What if it works? I don’t want to fight to the death with him for the time being.”

Chen Feng said with a smile, “I knew you weren’t that generous. You are Guo Mengyao. If you can tolerate being plotted against like this, then you are not you.”

“Do you know me so well?” Guo Mengyao teased.

“We were classmates for three years after all. In high school, although you smiled all day and were easy to get along with, if anyone provoked you, you would always seek revenge.”

“When did I say I was so petty?”

Chen Feng chuckled twice in response.

Guo Mengyao didn’t argue with Chen Feng and changed the subject, “My husband, no, my ex-husband’s side, what do you think I should do?”

Chen Feng really didn’t want to get involved in her family affairs, but their relationship was special, and Chen Feng had to say something. He asked back, “What are your own plans?”

Guo Mengyao sighed and said, “It’s impossible not to give him some family property. Even if the court is on my side, he will definitely be able to take away a part of the family property in the end. After all, most of my money was earned after I married him. In addition, I have been busy with business these years, and the child has been taken care of by him and the nanny most of the time. It’s very unfavorable for me to successfully obtain custody of the child. If I want to get back custody of the child, I must give him enough benefits.”

“Then how much do you plan to give him?” Chen Feng asked along with her words.

Guo Mengyao said, “I’ll give him the villa we’ve been living in. I was planning to sell this villa anyway. But I can’t satisfy him with thirty million in cash. I can give him at most ten million, and it has to be paid in two years. What do you think?”

Chen Feng thought to himself, you’ve already decided, why are you asking me?
“Since you’ve decided, then do it. I’m just afraid your… ex-husband is not so easy to deal with.”

“So, I want you to come forward and persuade him for me.”

Chen Feng was almost choked by her words. He looked at her in surprise, “What are you thinking? How can I persuade him?”

Guo Mengyao chuckled, “Just kidding. How could I let my adulterer persuade my ex-husband?”

Chen Feng breathed a sigh of relief and said with a glare, “This joke is not funny at all.”

Guo Mengyao pouted and didn’t say anything more. In fact, she really hoped that Chen Feng could come forward and help her solve all this.

Including the divorce agreement with her ex-husband, and the share dispute with Xue Jun and Sister Li.

Unfortunately, this was just a beautiful fantasy of hers. After all, although Chen Feng had some money now, he was not a person with great power.

The car drove all the way to a five-star hotel. Guo Mengyao had already booked a room for him. Chen Feng just had to check in with his luggage.

It was already after five in the afternoon, and it was very close to the seven o’clock appointment with Xue Jun and Sister Li.

So, after the two of them had dinner together, they went to the agreed teahouse together.

It was about six-fifty when they arrived. As a result, Xue Jun and Sister Li had already arrived and were drinking tea and chatting. This was obviously not a good sign. This showed that the two of them had been in contact privately.

Chen Feng had seen Xue Jun last time. He wore glasses, was a middle-aged man in his forties, about 1.75 meters tall, a little thin, and had a scholarly air. He heard that he used to be a teacher.

Sister Li was also about forty years old. She had a rich face, wore gold and silver, and was dressed like a rich wife.

Xue Jun knew Chen Feng. He just didn’t expect Guo Mengyao to bring him on this occasion.

And Sister Li was very curious and gossipy. She asked Chen Feng some questions and looked back and forth between Chen Feng and Guo Mengyao with an ambiguous look. A fool could see that their relationship was not simple.

“Sister Li, Xue Jun, we have been partners for several years, and we have cooperated happily these years. Let’s part on good terms. There is no need to make it like this.”

Guo Mengyao started with a direct opening.

Sister Li quickly said, “Mengyao, you can’t say I’m not kind this time. I was against you moving the company to your hometown from the beginning, so is it wrong for me to withdraw my shares? At most, I just want to sell my shares at a high price, that’s all. In fact, I’m also very optimistic about the future development of the company. Although you are buying back at a slight premium now, you will definitely not lose in the long run.”

Xue Jun said with a slightly gloomy face, “Mengyao, you have been acting arbitrarily in the company these years. Although you have developed the company well, you have also encountered a bottleneck. This is also the main reason why you plan to move the company back to your hometown, isn’t it? Because you feel that if you continue to stay in Guangcheng, it will be very difficult for the company to expand further.

I agree with you on this point, but you are too self-willed. If the company’s power is still in your hands, the company’s future development will still be limited. So, you might as well hand over the company’s power to me. Under my leadership, the company will definitely develop better.”

Guo Mengyao was not angry either. She calmly exchanged a few rounds with Xue Jun. Later, she proposed her two conditions for reconciliation, but as Chen Feng expected, Xue Jun refused without hesitation.

Although Guo Mengyao had also expected it, now that it was confirmed, she could no longer be calm. Seeing Sister Li sitting on the side like a fisherman, she asked with an unpleasant face, “Sister Li, what benefits did Xue Jun promise you?”

Sister Li looked at Guo Mengyao with a smile and said frankly, “He said that if you don’t buy my shares, after he takes control of the company, he will also buy my shares at a high price.”

“Aren’t you afraid he’ll go back on his word?” Guo Mengyao asked back unhappily.

Sister Li said with a confident face, “If he goes back on his word, I’ll cooperate with you. Anyway, I definitely won’t lose, right?”

This time, Xue Jun’s face also became a little ugly and he glanced at her.

No one was a fool. They were all calculating and had their own plans.
