After my divorce, I started to have good luck-Chapter 1066 - 564: Closest Yet Most Distant

"Is she alone, or with someone else? Surely not with someone she's close with?"

Lou Xiaojiao looked at Chen Feng with a smile, her words somewhat hitting the nail on the head.

She asked deliberately, for sure.

However, Chen Feng seemed unfazed by her words, calmly saying, "With a guy."

"What does that guy look like?" Lou Xiaojiao looked at him with a hint of teasing.

Chen Feng glared at her, "Didn't see clearly, didn't pay attention. Why don't you go check for me? I'm quite curious about what the guy looks like too."

"I'll go take a look. Where is your ex-wife sitting? What's she wearing?"

Yu Xiaohui was obviously very curious and spoke up first.

"Let's go together." Lou Xiaojiao quickly followed, her curiosity not small either.

Chen Feng smiled and said, "You both go have a look. She's sitting by the window, wearing a black-and-white checkered shirt. Afterwards, you head back; I'll return later, not with you guys."

"Going back this early?" Lou Xiaojiao asked.

"We've already eaten and drank fully, what's the point of staying here?" Chen Feng countered.

Lou Xiaojiao glanced at Yu Xiaohui and then nodded, "Alright then. Let's head back first."

With that, she pulled Yu Xiaohui out of the private room.

Chen Feng continued to calmly eat the unfinished cake, as he was also a bit curious about whether his ex-wife Shen Lin had a boyfriend now. Otherwise, he wouldn't have brought up this matter with the two women, having the intention of letting them scope things out for him.

After all, they had been in love for many years and even married. Even though he had firmly rejected her reconciliation request before, now, if she truly had a boyfriend, it would inevitably feel somewhat awkward and uncomfortable.

This is human nature. Unless during the divorce, they were mutually disgusted or even hostile.

Otherwise, when both sides learn the other has a romantic partner post-divorce, they definitely won't be happy. Deep down, they might even hope the other remains single, despite having remarried themselves.

If the other lived a miserable and unfortunate life post-divorce, there might even be some secret delight.

An intimate and estranged couple, that's how it is.

However, Chen Feng certainly wouldn't wish misfortune upon Shen Lin, but to sincerely wish the other finds true love again, that's definitely hard.

...

It wasn't until the dishes were served that Luo Qingchao broke the silence, using his magnetic voice and gentlemanly demeanor to introduce each dish to Shen Lin, extending the conversation.

Although Shen Lin didn't have much liking for him, she couldn't help admiring his vast knowledge. Given the familial connection through their introduced match, she didn't deliberately try to embarrass him, but rather cooperated, learning quite a bit about food traditions and some interesting foreign anecdotes from him.

Just from the dining experience and feelings right here, it was quite nice; every dish tasted satisfying, plus Luo Qingchao sitting beside her was handsome, talked pleasantly, and provided detailed introductions about each dish and little stories.

However satisfactory the meal was, Chen Feng's sudden appearance here, holding visibly feminine gift flowers, made her feel hard to suppress.

Moreover, she was very curious about whom Chen Feng was giving that bunch of flowers to? How did that woman look?

Thus, after she slowly finished several ordered dishes, it was already over half an hour.

Yet, she still showed no intention of leaving, continued sitting, waiting for Chen Feng to appear with some woman. She wanted to see for herself.

She didn't mention leaving; naturally, Luo Qingchao was glad, striving to continue finding topics for Shen Lin, talking about some sophisticated foreign experiences, and subjects like gourmet food, makeup, luxury goods that women tend to like, flaunting his wealth of knowledge.

Unfortunately, though Shen Lin did respond, she was somewhat distracted.

...

Lou Xiaojiao dragged Yu Xiaohui from the room, soon arriving at the hall side, they smoothly spotted Shen Lin sitting by the window, wearing a black-and-white checkered shirt.

The two had somewhat expected Shen Lin's beauty beforehand, but upon seeing her in person, were still astonishingly impressed. Shen Lin, indeed, looked very pretty, especially her cold demeanor; not only did men find her hard to look away from, but even they as women couldn't help being drawn to her.

Even Yu Xiaohui, who was always confident in her looks, felt a bit disheartened seeing Shen Lin in person. Shen Lin indeed was slightly prettier than her.

Judging by appearances alone, Shen Lin looked like she was twenty-five or twenty-six years old, younger than the two of them.

"His ex-wife is actually quite pretty." Lou Xiaojiao pretended to speak lightly, using her hometown dialect, "Chen Feng really was willing to divorce her? Why did they divorce back then? Wasn't it because Chen Feng cheated?"

Yu Xiaohui quickly adjusted her mindset, using hometown dialect, "Who knows, but I believe Chen Feng wouldn't cheat."

Lou Xiaojiao questioned, "If it's not him cheating, did his ex cheat then?"

Yu Xiaohui could only say, "I don't know either. Why don't you directly ask Chen Feng then?"

"Alright, later you drive, I'll message him on WeChat."

The two chatted while walking, soon reaching the service desk, where Yu Xiaohui settled the bill.

But they didn't leave the restaurant immediately; they continued to remain near the service desk, observing Shen Lin's side.

At this moment, Luo Qingchao across from Shen Lin was also precisely seen by them.

Lou Xiaojiao remarked, using her hometown dialect, "Chen Feng's ex-wife is indeed charming, across the table is clearly a man-like elite, well-educated, good-looking, successful career."

Yu Xiaohui said, "If she wasn't outstanding, Chen Feng wouldn't have fallen for her back then."

Lou Xiaojiao, assessing Luo Qingchao, commented, "What a pity. Though the guy looks really good, I feel he's still a bit less than Chen Feng."

"Less in what way? He seems slightly more handsome than Chen Feng, and even better built, without any belly fat."

Lou Xiaojiao laughed, "If Chen Feng hears you say that, he'll be heartbroken. Have you perhaps started fancying someone else?"

"Nonsense, I'm just stating the facts. This man appears to be the elite type, either owning his company or a high-level executive, with a good family background and education most likely. Such a man is quite popular in the marriage market. Lots of young girls look up to mature men like him."

"Oh, since when did you understand these things?"

"Scroll through your phone more and you will. What isn't there nowadays on it? By the way, you still haven't mentioned where this guy falls short of Chen Feng?"

"It's simple, he surely doesn't have as much money as Chen Feng now."

"That's not certain though." Yu Xiaohui disagrees, "Didn't you notice the Patek Philippe watch he's wearing? It costs a million. Being able to afford such a watch suggests his assets aren't low."
