After my divorce, I started to have good luck

Chapter 290: Love at First Sight



The most expensive dishes were undoubtedly ordered by Wu Mengting, while Chen Feng unexpectedly considered Yang Wenqi by only ordering two not-so-expensive dishes.

On the surface, Yang Wenqi appeared very calm, inviting the two to eat and even asking if they wanted to drink. Chen Feng declined, while Wu Mengting mentioned she had already ordered three pots of freshly squeezed juice, each costing 58, and they were quite large.

Just as she finished speaking, the waiter brought over three large glass pots of freshly squeezed juice — pineapple juice, orange juice, and mango juice.

Having reviewed the menu prices, Yang Wenqi couldn't help but feel even more worried seeing these three large pots of juice; it seemed her current funds might not be enough to pay the bill.

Fortunately, she had already contacted a dormmate from university, who was one of her few friends in Xiu Zhou, and their relationship was fairly decent. If she truly didn't have enough money, she could only borrow some from her.

In fact, she hadn't had a real friend for many years. This was partly due to her own reasons and partly because of others.

Ultimately, it's because she's too beautiful, which makes other women near her seem dull and overshadowed, and she would capture all the attention from men.

It was like this since she was in elementary school; initially, she had a few female classmates who were close, but gradually, they disappeared because the male classmates would flatter and please her while often neglecting the other female classmates. She's never been good at maintaining relationships, so naturally, she ended up with no female classmates around her.

If it was like this in elementary school, then it was even more so in high school. No female classmates or peers were willing to play the supporting role beside her, and she didn't really need them.

This continued into university, where her personality became even colder and more aloof. In the dormitory, she always acted independently, rarely participating in group activities.

Therefore, her relationship with the other two roommates was very mediocre, except for one roommate from a somewhat wealthy local family, Jin Xinyan, with whom she shared a fairly good relationship. They often went to evening classes or went shopping for milk tea together. Although not super close friends, they were relatively good pals.

Yang Wenqi had just gone out to call her, telling her about the situation, and emphasized that she was treating her company boss to dinner this time. Although the boss is in his thirties, he is still single, worth at least hundreds of millions, handsome and has a good temperament.

Yang Wenqi knew that if she didn't mention Chen Feng, her female roommate might not really come to the appointment.

Indeed, since graduation, the two hadn't contacted each other for two or three months.

This fully indicates that their actual relationship wasn't too great.

Now, as Yang Wenqi suddenly contacted her to invite her for dinner, her instinctive reaction would undoubtedly be a bit wary and hesitant. After all, as the saying goes, showing unusual kindness means you have ulterior motives, everyone knows that.

However, Yang Wenqi quickly mentioned that she had signed with a film and television company, that night she's having dinner with her boss at a seafood restaurant, and for added persuasion, she sent her a few photos of herself at the company, including selfies and pictures of the company environment.

She focused on introducing Mr. Chen, the eligible bachelor boss, saying there is a TV drama collaborating with Tencent, set to air next month, named "Mountain Order", already promoting and searchable online.

After all, they stayed in the same dormitory for almost three years. Yang Wenqi knew Jin Xinyan's preferences well. Her family background and looks are pretty good, and she had high standards for boyfriends, not caring about the average rich second generation, she preferred those charismatic men who've built their own business, and doesn't mind if they're a few years older.

Yang Wenqi counted as catering to her taste. The main reason she called Jin Xinyan was to dispel the potentially hostile attitude Wu Mengting might have towards her.

Women intuitively perceive each other's thoughts sharply. Just like how Wu Mengting might feel she harbored untoward intentions towards Chen Feng, she also clearly sensed the hostility Wu Mengting had towards her earlier.

Bear in mind, she is now a newly signed artist at Fengmang Film and Television Company, utterly alone within the company, whereas Wu Mengting is the company's financial director, more importantly, she and Mr. Chen regard each other as siblings, having an extraordinary relationship.

If Wu Mengting wants to make things difficult for her, or even fire her, it's easy.

Therefore, the immediate priority is not to let Wu Mengting truly believe she harbors any intentions towards Chen Feng, hence inviting Jin Xinyan could effectively conceal this concern.

Additionally, Jin Xinyan, as a local from Xiu Zhou, has some family wealth and is also beautiful. Her presence as company gives Yang Wenqi face.

They've been eating for about ten minutes and there were still a few dishes yet to arrive when Jin Xinyan arrived.

By coincidence, when Yang Wenqi called her earlier, it so happened she was nearby, hence her prompt arrival.

Jin Xinyan was dressed fashionably, carrying a LV handbag, with a pearl necklace around her neck. Her appearance was elegant and her demeanor poised, with a kind yet graceful smile, embodying the image of a modern young socialite.

Her voice was soft and charming, with a hint of local accent, easily distinctive.

After mutual introductions, Jin Xinyan sat beside Yang Wenqi and smiled at Chen Feng saying, "Wenqi and I are besties. This time hearing she invited you, the big boss, for a meal, I couldn't resist wanting to come and see. Now seeing for myself, indeed as Wenqi described, Mr. Chen is truly outstanding and extraordinary. At your age to have built such a successful career, really is rare."

Her words were straightforward and candid, coupled with the unique soft tone of the local accent, it sounded even more pleasing. Chen Feng was naturally no exception to this.

"You flatter me, it's just a bit of luck on my part." Chen Feng replied modestly.

Jin Xinyan gently laughed, "Luck is also part of one's ability. Someone like you, who started from scratch, has always been someone I admire."

These words were somewhat daring, especially with Jin Xinyan's admiring gaze directed at Chen Feng, which made Wu Mengting and Yang Wenqi feel a bit uncomfortable.

Jin Xinyan's behavior was slightly over the top, but it also showed that Chen Feng really suited her preferences.

Firstly, he has money and a career, secondly, in terms of appearance and temperament, Chen Feng perfectly fits Jin Xinyan's criteria for choosing a partner.

Even in terms of age, Chen Feng suits reasonably well since Jin Xinyan has always wanted to find someone a few years older than herself, with masculinity, who is considerate.

And someone like Chen Feng clearly appears to have a good temperament. Simply perfect.

This gave Jin Xinyan a feeling of "searching through the crowd, suddenly finding him in the twilight."

To put it simply, it was like "searching for something high and low only to find it effortlessly."
