Chapter 1349: Chapter 701: Men and Women Are the Same

The next day, when Wu Mengting woke up, Chen Feng was no longer by her side.

She reached out and touched the spot next to her, felt there was still a trace of warmth, and couldn’t help feeling a sweet gush in her heart.

Right then, Chen Feng was out jogging in the compound. After a few laps he was drenched in sweat; estimating he’d run five or six kilometers, he slowly came to a stop, walking and panting as he headed home.

Just at this moment, a car slowed down not far from him, then the window rolled down and someone inside greeted him, "Chen Feng, up early to work out?"

Chen Feng took a look and saw it was actually Sun Yanhong. He couldn’t help frowning, but since they did technically know each other, and seeing her smiling broadly, he just nodded in response, without slowing his pace, continuing to walk toward his own place.

He had no intention whatsoever of stopping to chat with her.

"Chen Feng, let me tell you something, I’ve moved over here too, into that D08 villa. From now on we’re neighbors."

Hearing this, Chen Feng stopped, frowned at her, and asked bluntly, "What are you moving here for?"

Sun Yanhong gave a lazy little smile and said, "Staying in the same place too long gets boring, so I wanted a change of scenery. The environment here is great, I really like it."

There was no way that explanation from this horny cougar would satisfy Chen Feng, but he couldn’t be bothered to waste words with her. She could move here if she wanted; as long as he ignored her, there wasn’t much she could do.

Chen Feng kept walking forward. Sun Yanhong’s car still crawled along beside him as she said, "Chen Feng, I just happened to move in today. I’m planning to invite the neighbors over for dinner tonight so we can all get to know each other. You come too, okay?"

"I’ve got plans tonight, so I won’t be going."

Chen Feng didn’t even turn his face toward her, just said his piece and continued walking home.

"That’s not very nice of you. We’re at least friends, and now we’re neighbors too. Don’t keep me a thousand miles away like that."

Chen Feng couldn’t be bothered with her, directly sped up into a light jog and quickly reached the big iron gate of his villa. He pulled open the small door that wasn’t locked, slipped inside, and then shut it heavily.

Sitting in the Mercedes, seeing how Chen Feng acted like he couldn’t avoid her fast enough, Sun Yanhong actually didn’t get mad. Before moving here she had already prepared herself mentally for Chen Feng ignoring her.

The reason she’d moved here wasn’t entirely because she was fangirling and hell-bent on getting Chen Feng into bed.

The main reason really was as she had just said: she was tired of her old place and wanted to live somewhere new.

Only secondarily did she think about becoming Chen Feng’s neighbor.

Not that "the pavilion closest to the water gets the moon first" or anything, but at least living close to Chen Feng meant more chances to run into him. Psychologically it made her feel like she was closer to him, which gave her a tiny bit of satisfaction.

She had quite a bit of property under her name. She already owned three standalone villas similar to the ones in Red Villa Bay, yet up till now she actually hadn’t had a standalone villa in Red Villa Bay itself.

This D08 villa she was moving into, she’d gotten it through connections, paying close to eighteen million. The price was slightly above market, and that was already with pulling strings; otherwise they might not have sold it to her at all.

And at the price she’d bought it, judging by Xiu Zhou’s housing prices these past two years, you really couldn’t say she’d taken a loss.

She sat in the car looking at the tightly shut iron gate of No. 8 Villa for a while before finally ordering the driver in front to drive off.

After Chen Feng stepped through his own big iron gate, he couldn’t help feeling a bit annoyed inside.

He didn’t really care that much about gaining Sun Yanhong as a female neighbor, but having a horny cougar orchestrate "chance encounters" like this still made his skin crawl a bit.

If he went out jogging from now on and kept running into her, like with Hong Xiaodan back then, that would be a real pain.

At least Hong Xiaodan was a textbook rich and pretty girl. As for Sun Yanhong, even though she was fairly good-looking and had a nice figure, she was a notorious "socialite slut" among the wealthy, and she was this old already. How could Chen Feng possibly be interested?

So Chen Feng could only hope she wouldn’t harass him in the future. Otherwise, he definitely wouldn’t indulge her and would have to teach her a lesson.

When he reached the first-floor hall, Sun Xiaorui was already making breakfast. As for Wu Mengting, she was nowhere to be seen; presumably she was still sleeping in his room.

Chen Feng ran upstairs, turned the doorknob and pushed the door open, just in time to see Wu Mengting getting out of bed.

"Morning!"

"Morning!"

The two of them greeted each other almost in unison, then couldn’t help looking at each other and laughing.

"Sleep well last night?" Chen Feng asked casually.

"It was okay. I’m just not used to the pillow. Yours is latex; I prefer goose down."

"Then bring your own goose-down pillow over tonight."

"...No need, I’ll sleep in my own room tonight," Wu Mengting said, her ears flushing a bit red.

Chen Feng chuckled. "All right then, I’ll go to your room tonight and sleep with you there."

Wu Mengting knew he was teasing her and rolled her eyes at him, annoyed. "I like sleeping alone even more. And you snore, I don’t like that."

"I snore?"

"Of course."

"I don’t even know that myself, and Little Rui’s never mentioned it."

"I’m not lying to you. If you don’t believe me, turn on your phone recorder before you sleep tonight."

"Fine, even if I do snore, you should still be sleeping with me. You’re my girlfriend now; sleeping with me every day is your duty."

Wu Mengting retorted, "I’ve never heard of that being a girlfriend’s duty. Even if I were your wife, I’d have no obligation to sleep with you every single day."

"Okay, okay, since you don’t like it, then you don’t have to sleep with me. I’m going to shower first."

With that, Chen Feng went into the bathroom to shower.

But Wu Mengting was already feeling a bit regretful inside. Of course she wanted to get closer to Chen Feng, including sharing a bed.

It was just that, out of feminine reserve, she couldn’t agree that easily.

And then Chen Feng just gave up without pushing the issue at all.

After his shower, Chen Feng went downstairs, had breakfast with the two women, then they headed off to work.

Chen Feng, as usual, stayed home.

But he hadn’t forgotten the "serious business" he’d promised Wu Mengting. He picked up his phone and sent a message to Li Liqin.

[Are you free at noon?]

Li Liqin replied quickly: [I’m free. Which hotel are we going to? Should I book it, or you?]

Seeing her message, Chen Feng was speechless for a good while.

As expected, women these days are just as horny as men, if not more. On this point, there really doesn’t seem to be much difference between the sexes.

[I’m treating you to tea at noon. Ancient Charm Tea House, 12:30. How’s that?]

[Just tea?]

[Mm]

[Then I’m not going]

[I’ve got something important to talk to you about]

[What is it?]

[To show my respect for you, I’d better tell you in person. It’s more formal that way]

[Oh, I see. All right then, I’ll come meet you at noon, like you said]

[Okay]

After ending the chat, Chen Feng finally had time to read novels and scroll through short videos. Life was this dull and boring, yet somehow the time still flew by.
