Chapter 362: Chapter 213: The Silently Waiting Woman
A few days later, Chen Feng flew back to Lu City.
The main reason for this trip was to retrieve the property deed, and also to see Lin Yujiao, inviting her to open a shop on Longhua Street.
The shop he purchased had its lease with the previous tenant expire recently, and Chen Feng planned to rent it to Lin Yujiao at a cheap rate.
After all, he had been good to her once, and regarding this, Chen Feng had no complaints.
Lin Yujiao was the one who came to pick him up. Knowing Chen Feng was coming to Lu City and asked her to pick him up, she arrived at the airport more than an hour early.
Her heart had been longing, occasionally checking her phone, patiently but anxiously waiting for Chen Feng’s arrival.
During this period, she actually missed Chen Feng very much, but she could only hold back this longing, trying not to disturb him, and they barely kept in touch, even sending him WeChat messages was rare.
The reason was simple; she knew Chen Feng was "not interested" in her, and he had a girlfriend. This was something Chen Feng explained to her from the start, that she was just someone Chen Feng was supporting, and she should not have any unrealistic expectations beyond that.
After gaining more insight into Chen Feng’s abilities and financial prowess, she harbored no unrealistic fantasies. Especially seeing someone as outstanding as Wu Mengting, a beautiful woman with conditions that completely overshadowed her, it made her lack the courage even more to aspire for something more.
Because she feared that if she was too clever, not only would she lose the monthly allowance of thirty thousand, but also the cheap shop that Chen Feng provided for her.
She was a woman who had an abortion and a divorce, now living independently, thinking about things more rationally and realistically.
She feared that if she frequently initiated contact with Chen Feng, it might make him dislike her. But she was also afraid that Chen Feng might forget her, so she would still send a WeChat message to him once in a while, reminding him of this woman quietly waiting for him.
Fortunately, Chen Feng proved to be someone who valued old connections. As soon as he decided to return to Lu City, he called her to pick him up.
Finally, the flight carrying Chen Feng arrived, and she saw him in the lobby on the first floor.
Chen Feng glanced around and spotted Lin Yujiao standing by the passageway, noticing her easily due to Lin Yujiao’s particularly beautiful attire.
She wore a light pink knitted pullover underneath, layered with a light gray cardigan on top, revealing a high waistline that showcased her beautiful waist, paired with a light blue pleated skirt that swayed below the knees, her feet adorned with shiny silver heels, accentuating her slender waist and graceful figure.
The off-white handbag she carried added to her feminine charm.
As a result, during the hour-long wait, at least five men attempted to strike up a conversation with her, all of whom she ignored.
Chen Feng waved at her with a smile and walked quickly towards her.
Lin Yujiao also waved back at him with a beaming smile and hurriedly approached.
Without shouting, they found themselves in a silent yet excited camaraderie.
Soon they stood face to face, mere meters apart.
There was an impulse within Yujiao to throw herself into Chen Feng’s embrace, but she suppressed it, being aware it was a public place and fearing he might dislike it.
However, Chen Feng extended his arms with a smile in a welcoming gesture, causing Lin Yujiao to impulsively throw herself into his arms without a second thought.
And Chen Feng naturally held her, warmth filling his arms.
The men who had been watching Lin Yujiao suddenly felt heartbroken. Truly, beautiful women never lack admirers.
"It’s wonderful to hold you again." Honestly, after more than a month without seeing her, Chen Feng did miss her sometimes.
His chin gently rested on her head, inhaling deeply the familiar scent mixed with perfume and shampoo from her hair.
This was the first sentence between them upon meeting.
Lin Yujiao hadn’t expected such a passionate embrace just as they met. She had briefly fantasized about it before coming, but now that it was real, it felt almost unreal.
Especially with Chen Feng saying that, it brought a fleeting tearful sensation to her.
Could she have developed genuine feelings? She shouldn’t be so easily moved.
She was momentarily at a loss for how to respond to Chen Feng’s words.
Chen Feng didn’t pay much attention to her expression, after holding her for a while and filling his senses with the familiar scent, he released her, naturally placing one hand on her shoulder as they headed outside together.
Chen Feng came with only a backpack this time; he planned to stay for just a day or two, so he packed light.
Once they exited the terminal, Lin Yujiao gathered her bearings and said, a bit embarrassed, "After more than a month of not seeing you, I almost didn’t recognize you."
Chen Feng looked at her with a smile, "It’s only been over a month, what’s there not to recognize?"
Lin Yujiao said somewhat resentfully, "To you it may not be long, but to me it feels quite long."
Chen Feng was momentarily at a loss for words, so he changed the topic, "Did you sell the shop in Qingpu Town?"
Talking business made Lin Yujiao serious again, she nodded and said, "Sold it over a week ago. I just returned from Guang City a couple of days ago, found two decent suppliers there, and purchased clothes from them."
"Did you go alone?" Chen Feng looked at her in surprise.
Lin Yujiao nodded as if it was obvious, "Of course. Who else but myself would go with me?"
After saying that, she glanced at Chen Feng.
Chen Feng smiled awkwardly, changing the topic again, "Since the supply source is confirmed, there’s no issue. Clothes from Guang City are cheap, trendy, and varied, the foot traffic on Longhua Street ensures profit without loss."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yujiao couldn’t help but feel happy, nodding, "It’s all thanks to your generosity as the boss, renting the shop to me cheaply. With the rental price you’re offering, I could earn quite a bit by subleasing it to someone else."
Chen Feng looked at her and said with a smile, "If you really did that, I wouldn’t mind. But, I know you’re not that foolish. Renting such a cheap shop on Longhua Street, selling clothes yourself would surely make more than becoming a second landlord."
"Thank you for your kind words."
Talking and laughing, the two of them reached the parking lot and got into the car, with Chen Feng sitting in the passenger seat.
As soon as they sat down, Chen Feng’s left hand naturally rested on her thigh.
An hour later, in a luxury suite at a star hotel near the airport, looking out through the floor-to-ceiling windows, they had a clear view of the intersecting flyovers leading to the airport.
These flyovers are tangled in a complicated mess, with spans layered one over the other, undoubtedly drawing confusion without navigation.
In the distance, the construction site of high-rise buildings was bathed in the waning western sunlight, making the room seem warm and sunlit.
After the hustle and bustle, the two were lying down, a bit exhausted, chatting casually, feeling surprisingly good.
