Chapter 364: Chapter 214: Helping Yu Jiao Open a Shop

Before this, Wu Mengting had heard Chen Feng tell Guo Mengyao that he was worth a hundred million.

But at that time, she didn’t quite believe it, thinking that Chen Feng’s claim of being worth a hundred million was somewhat bragging, even guessing internally that Chen Feng was worth maybe just tens of millions at most.

After Chen Feng spent over two million to buy a shop without batting an eye, her estimation of Chen Feng’s personal assets rose to twenty or thirty million.

But now, with Wu Mengting’s revelation, she finally believed that Chen Feng’s previous words to Guo Mengyao were true—he really was worth billions.

Thinking about this, even if she appeared calm on the surface, she couldn’t help but feel extremely shocked, and a sense of unprecedented joy and admiration arose within her.

It seemed that being kept by such a billionaire like Chen Feng was indeed a fortunate thing.

"Is Sister Mengyao’s company really that valuable?" Lin Yujiao asked, looking curious.

Wu Mengting nodded and said, "Of course. Her company used to sell cosmetics all through outsourcing, but now she has directly acquired a cosmetic factory over in Lin Nan, doing her own production and sales. I believe her company will have even more potential for growth in the future."

Chen Feng turned to ask her, "Didn’t you say yesterday that you went to the factory over there? Has it started official production?"

"Yes, it’s already started. Previously, this factory mainly produced shampoo and was doing outsourcing too. Now, since Sister Guo took over, it’s mainly producing lipsticks and face masks, while the outsourced shampoo production has been reduced considerably. The company’s main products now are lipstick and masks, selling very well online. Producing themselves ensures better quality and the price is much cheaper. It’s more competitive."

"That’s good." Chen Feng nodded and didn’t continue the topic. He still trusted Guo Mengyao’s business abilities. It wasn’t Chen Feng’s idea to have Wu Mengting go and inspect Mengyao’s company over in Lin Nan; rather, it was Wu Mengting who took the initiative to find something for herself to do as an assistant.

"Yu Jiao, now knowing how wealthy my brother is, do you have any thoughts?" Wu Mengting raised an eyebrow at Yu Jiao, smiling as she asked.

Lin Yujiao glanced at Chen Feng, relaxed, and asked back, "What thoughts could I possibly have?"

Wu Mengting laughed and said, "My brother actually doesn’t have an official girlfriend yet. Maybe you can consider working hard to become one."

"What are you talking about?" Chen Feng frowned at Wu Mengting, a little angry and a bit puzzled about why Wu Mengting was encouraging Lin Yujiao like this.

And right in front of him, no less.

Lin Yujiao was also somewhat surprised, looking at Wu Mengting, knowing full well that Wu Mengting had feelings for Chen Feng, yet saying such things that clearly weren’t sincere.

"I don’t have such ambitions. But you, do you really plan to keep being Brother Feng’s unofficial sister?"

Lin Yujiao’s counterattack was quite sharp.

However, Wu Mengting had come to terms with it and shook her head, smiling, saying, "Being my brother’s sister isn’t bad for now. We can’t say what the future holds, I just hope to do well in the moment."

Lin Yujiao chuckled and didn’t further confront Wu Mengting.

Just then, the waiter came in and brought their dishes, and the three started eating.

Following that, the three chatted intermittently about gossip and news until they finished eating.

During the meal, Wu Mengting received several phone calls but didn’t answer any, ultimately putting her phone on silent.

After leaving the restaurant, the three wandered around nearby until almost ten o’clock, when Wu Mengting sent them back to their hotel as per Chen Feng’s request, and then arranged to meet him in the morning to check out the shop.

Watching Chen Feng and Lin Yujiao walk into the hotel together, Wu Mengting secretly hoped that Lin Yujiao had genuinely been influenced by her previous suggestions and wanted to become Chen Feng’s girlfriend.

If that’s the case, Wu Mengting could assure it wouldn’t take long before Chen Feng would break up with her.

Because as far as she understood Chen Feng, he would be disgusted by women he kept who developed feelings they shouldn’t have, especially when it was overdone; they might get discarded.

Previously, Sun Xiaorui used to say this kind of situation when she was with her. Back then, she wanted to go to Chen Feng’s hometown, but he kept opposing it; he’d initially reply but eventually became too lazy even to respond, making her worried that he’d leave her.

So when she returned to Xiu Zhou and reunited with Chen Feng, she remained content to be the kept woman, not daring to show any intention or action to become official.

That’s one of the main reasons why Wu Mengting still has a relatively harmonious relationship with Sun Xiaorui.

Despite that, Wu Mengting felt a bit blocked inside about Sun Xiaorui’s matter, tolerating it only because of Chen Feng’s terminal illness, and Sun Xiaorui was not hard to get along with.

But she didn’t want there to be another Lin Yujiao here, back when she was more tolerant during the Lunar New Year thinking that after celebrating he’d break up with Lin Yujiao, but now it appeared he couldn’t forget her—meeting her right after coming back.

This naturally caused Wu Mengting to harbor some antagonistic feelings towards Lin Yujiao.

That’s only human nature; she could tolerate Sun Xiaorui, but not necessarily Lin Yujiao. Even if Lin Yujiao seemed easy to get along with, why must she be with Lin Yujiao? Wouldn’t it be better if Chen Feng just dumped her?

Of course, neither Chen Feng nor Lin Yujiao realized Wu Mengting harbored such thoughts.

Chen Feng always considered Lin Yujiao to be straightforward, and from the beginning, he’d made it clear to her that they were purely a physical arrangement, not a romantic relationship, or even transactional, nothing more.

Lin Yujiao initially accepted this; however, as she gradually understood Chen Feng more deeply and he increasingly supported her, she naturally developed the feelings every woman has for her desired man.

Despite repeatedly warning herself against falling for a man, how could she help it when Chen Feng was so generous and considerate?

As a divorced woman, she wasn’t afraid of men with intentions towards her, but she feared Chen Feng, who cared for her in various ways while giving her money, because with such a man, it was hard not to fall, both physically and emotionally.

Now that she knows Chen Feng is worth billions, is she eager to change her status?

Not really. Lin Yujiao wasn’t without thoughts about it, but she was more aware of herself and understood Chen Feng’s true feelings.

She was a divorced woman, long since more rational than emotional.

Though now she’s certain she loves Chen Feng a bit, she’s even more certain that at this stage Chen Feng has no intention of having a romantic relationship with her, much less talking about marriage.

Hence, she clearly recognizes that if she acts too intensely towards Chen Feng, it would only damage her "harmonious" relationship with him, and possibly lose his care.
