Chapter 333: Chapter 198: Truly Seeking Death_2

Lin Wan heard this, glared at him, and snapped, "I think you’re just trying to break up me and Tiantian. What’s the point of this?"

Chen Feng smiled lightly and said sincerely to her, "Lin Wan, people need to learn to grow up and live independently. Haven’t you noticed you’re too dependent on Mengting right now? She’s just your friend. Even though you helped her a little before, she’s been your roommate for so long and acted as your free nanny, all debts are cleared now. So, if you keep clinging to her and treating her like a servant, it’s a bit too much, don’t you agree?"

Lin Wan couldn’t argue with these points, she just looked grimly at Wu Mengting: "Tiantian, say something, are you planning to leave me too?"

Wu Mengting looked troubled, first glancing at Chen Feng, then Lin Wan, and sighed, "Waner, even if we live separately, we are still friends. We can meet often."

"You... you disappoint me so much."

Lin Wan stood up in anger, her face puffed up, and rushed upstairs.

Chen Feng watched her "retreat in defeat" and felt smug, shrugging with a smile.

Wu Mengting complained, "Brother, on New Year’s Day when we reunite for the first time, you embarrassed her like this, isn’t it a bit inappropriate?"

Chen Feng spread his hands innocently and said, "Don’t blame me. She’s just too arrogant, takes advantage of me with an entitled attitude, and speaks without thinking. If not for your sake, I wouldn’t have any association with her."

Wu Mengting, a bit helpless, said, "That’s just her personality. But she truly isn’t bad, at most she takes minor advantages."

Chen Feng said, "It’s good that you know she likes to take advantage. Someone like her isn’t someone to form deep bonds with. You treat her as a close friend, but she might not feel the same. Not to mention when you cook for her every day, she takes it for granted without any sense of gratitude. That’s really frustrating. Haven’t you noticed this?"

Wu Mengting couldn’t say anything for a moment. She’s long been aware of Lin Wan’s flaws, but she appreciates loyalty due to Lin Wan offering her a place when they graduated, a kindness she has never forgotten.

"Alright. Some people and some things need to be cut off when necessary, and let go when necessary. You won’t be foolish enough to willingly keep being her free nanny and maid, right?"

Wu Mengting remained silent.

Just then, Sun Xiaorui spoke up, "Lin Wan’s candid personality is a strength, but she indeed likes to take advantage of people. At the end of last year, during our trip, she kept using our skincare products, face wash, shampoo, and sunscreen. She could easily prepare and purchase these herself, but after such a long trip, she didn’t buy them, instead contentedly using ours.

What can I say, while these things aren’t expensive, it feels uncomfortable inside, and her actions are quite excessive. So, I felt she’s not someone to deeply bond with since then. But due to Brother Feng and my connection with you, I didn’t mention it. We all still keep up appearances as friends."

Chen Feng seized the opportunity, "You see, Little Rui understands very clearly. And you still don’t see it?"

Wu Mengting gave a wry smile and said, "Of course, I understand. But sometimes you have to play dumb to maintain friendships. Just like they say, water that’s too clear has no fish, and a person who’s too observant will have no followers. Being overly astute means truly having no friends at all."

Chen Feng sneered, "If a friend only keeps taking advantage of you without appreciating or reciprocating, it’s truly unnecessary to maintain that friendship. So, if she pleads with you later, don’t soften your heart. If you find her too annoying, you can move to Red Villa Bay earlier."

Wu Mengting could only nod with a wry smile.

With everything that needed to be said already spoken, Chen Feng didn’t linger and left with Sun Xiaorui.

In the car, Sun Xiaorui hinted, "Brother Feng, you seem to have a lot of issues with Lin Wan."

"Yes," Chen Feng admitted, "I mentioned before that this woman is too selfish. It’s okay to be selfish, but don’t harm others for one’s own gain, and even more so, don’t betray friends for profit."

Sun Xiaorui laughed, "From what you’re saying, not only does she harm others for gain, but she also betrays friends for profit?"

"You could say that."

"I believe she harms others for gain, but betrayal for profit sounds unlikely, right?" Sun Xiaorui expressed doubt.

Then, Chen Feng recounted the time he bribed her, and Sun Xiaorui listened with some feeling and said, "Had you not told me, I wouldn’t have known, nor could I tell. Does Mengting know about this?"

"She knows. She understands it well but still keeps in mind the consideration from when she graduated and Lin Wan offered a place, perhaps also because she has few friends around her. You should get closer to her."

"Oh, okay."

At East Lake Villa, after Chen Feng and Sun Xiaorui left, Wu Mengting took the initiative to go upstairs and talk openly with Lin Wan.

Initially, Lin Wan behaved just as Chen Feng predicted, pitifully pleading with Wu Mengting to continue living with her.

But sadly, this time Wu Mengting didn’t relent, only shook her head.

Finally, Lin Wan angrily accused her of being ungrateful, saying she looked down on her once a close companion after climbing higher.

Wu Mengting could only helplessly say, "Waner, like Brother Feng said, we will have to separate someday. And you truly need to start learning to take care of yourself. Otherwise, work hard to earn money and hire a maid to serve you."

Lin Wan snorted, "Seems like you’ve long been dissatisfied with me. If you didn’t want to cook and clean, you could’ve told me, and I would definitely share the chores with you."

Wu Mengting shook her head and said, "It’s not just for that reason, mainly... mainly, when we live together, I constantly have to consider your feelings, and it’s exhausting. Plus, there are other reasons as well. So, it seems we’re really going to part ways this time."

The other reason is naturally because of Chen Feng’s serious illness, and Wu Mengting wants to get closer to him, hoping to live together and be with him daily.

Moreover, Chen Feng dislikes Lin Wan, so if given a choice, Wu Mengting will definitely choose Chen Feng.

Wu Mengting isn’t foolish; she knows clearly who treats her well and whom is most important. Despite Lin Wan’s sisterly bond with her, it can’t compare to Chen Feng.

Lin Wan, though extremely unwilling and angry, didn’t intend to break ties with Wu Mengting entirely. The truth is, Wu Mengting, as her close friend, has been so good to her over the years, even better than family.

How could she bear to end such a friendship? Moreover, it’s just about living separately now, not cutting her off completely or stopping her from taking advantage.

This is obvious logic.
