After my divorce, I started to have good luck

...

The two of them chatted casually and quite pleasantly. Mainly because neither had any psychological burden, nor did they have to overly care about each other's emotions. Whatever came to mind, they just asked and said.

So, they chatted for about half an hour, finished a cup of coffee, and felt a bit unsatisfied.

However, Chen Feng didn't want to continue chatting with her. Although their conversation was pleasant, she wasn't his type, and it would be troublesome if she took a liking to him.

So, once he finished his cappuccino, Chen Feng didn't plan to order another. He looked at his phone, expressed he had things to do back home, and took his leave from Li Liqin.

Li Liqin's expression was clearly a bit reluctant, but she smiled and nodded, indicating she also needed to leave.

Thus, they both stood up and headed downstairs.

"Aren't you going to say goodbye to your friend over there?" Li Liqin reminded him.

At her words, Chen Feng glanced at Yang Wenqi, who was still sitting alone, enjoying the scenery.

In his heart, he couldn't help but suspect she was doing this intentionally, perhaps trying to attract men to approach her. Earlier, she didn't take an interest in him, might have been pretending, or maybe Chen Feng didn't showcase his wealth.

But this didn't concern him. Their encounter was purely coincidental; they probably wouldn't meet again in the future.

"I said I'm not familiar with her. Let's go."

Chen Feng brushed off the suggestion and went to the front desk to settle the bill, without any objections from Li Liqin. She and her coworker had only ordered a coffee, which didn't cost much.

The two went downstairs together and reached the roadside where Li Liqin's car was parked not far away, while Chen Feng's car was parked further away.

"Let's catch up sometime. Keep in touch."

Li Liqin casually suggested to Chen Feng, waved her hand, and turned smoothly toward her car.

Chen Feng didn't say much, just waved back and turned to go.

If nothing unexpected happened, Chen Feng wouldn't meet her alone for a date, as she wasn't his type. She wasn't suitable to be a temporary jogging partner or anything, so it's best to have less contact.

Maybe Li Liqin sensed Chen Feng's thoughts, which was why she acted so casually earlier.

Life is like this. You like someone, but they might not like you back. Those you don't like often take the initiative.

Some settle and find lifelong happiness, some never get what they seek and feel depressed for a lifetime, others struggle hard to get what they want but find it dull in the end.

Gaining might not lead to happiness, not gaining might not mean unhappiness.

Chen Feng contemplated as he walked back to where he had parked his car, unlocked, and drove home.

As he drove past Laiman Coffee, he could see two people tangled on the roadside. As he got closer, he realized the woman was Yang Wenqi.

He hesitated for a moment, then stopped his car next to the two, rolled down the window, leaned toward Yang Wenqi, and called out, "Hey, need a ride?"

Both Yang Wenqi and the man grappling with her looked toward Chen Feng.

Yang Wenqi seized the moment as the man was stunned, shook off the hand holding her arm, and quickly ran over to the passenger side of Chen Feng's car, and jumped in.

"Drive!" Yang Wenqi urged urgently.

Chen Feng didn't say much, started the car, and the man finally came to his senses. He hurriedly chased after the car but couldn't catch up, and could only angrily wave his fists at the roadside.

"Where to?"

After shaking off the man, Chen Feng directly asked Yang Wenqi.

"Can you take me to Xiu State University?" Yang Wenqi said weakly.

"You're still a student?" Chen Feng glanced at her in surprise. She had a student aura but dressed and groomed more like an adult.

"I just graduated but can still live in the dormitory, though at most for another month, after which the school won't allow it."

Chen Feng just said "oh" and didn't express any further opinions.

The car fell silent.

A few minutes passed without a word from either.

Xiu State University wasn't far from East Lake, just a dozen-minute drive, but from Red Villa Bay it's quite a distance, needing to drive half an hour.

However, he decided to go all the way without complaint, partly because he mistook someone earlier and felt he owed a bit of courtesy.

Of course, if she wasn't a stunning beauty, Chen Feng wouldn't have gone out of his way to help her escape trouble.

"Aren't you curious about what happened earlier?"

After a while, Yang Wenqi couldn't help but ask Chen Feng.

"What's there to be curious about?" Chen Feng laughed and said, "It's none of my business, right?"

Yang Wenqi slightly frowned and said, "Then why did you help me just now?"

"Coincidentally bumped into it, plus I mistook you for someone else in the café earlier, a bit rude, so I helped you out, consider it a favor returned."

"…You really are… principled."

Chen Feng smiled and said no more.

In the past, with such a good opportunity and considering Yang Wenqi's beauty, Chen Feng might have flirted a bit.

But now, he was cultivating himself, not intending to pursue newly graduated female students.

Thus, silence ensued again until the car reached the gate of Xiu State University and stopped.

"Thank you, what's your name again? Oh right, you mentioned before, Chen Feng, right?"

"Yes, I'm Chen Feng. Nice to meet you. Well then, goodbye."

After politely saying, Chen Feng urged her to get out.

Seeing his attitude, Yang Wenqi felt a bit annoyed. Normally, the other party would have asked for contact details early on.

But it seemed Chen Feng had no intention, which frustrated and upset her.

She was not about to admit she didn't attract Chen Feng.

She had grown up confident in her looks and demeanor.

"Well… I'm getting off. Bye!"

Yang Wenqi opened the car door, slowing her movements to give Chen Feng ample time to ask for her contact information. But alas, as she leisurely pushed open the door, stepped out, Chen Feng didn't utter a word.

When she stood by the car door and bent down to say "goodbye" again, Chen Feng simply replied and still didn't ask for her contact details.

Once she closed the door, Chen Feng started the car and drove off without any hint of staying longer.
