After my divorce, I started to have good luck

Chapter 1158 609: Seven or Eight Years

Seven or eight years ago, after her sudden disappearance, they both thought they would never meet again in this lifetime. Even if they did, it would only be an accidental brush past each other on the street.Neither of them could have dreamed that years later, they would reunite under such circumstances.

Upon recognizing Chen Feng, Zhou Qianru instinctively wanted to escape from here.

But it was now morning, and there were only a few of them on the second floor of the tea house. She was obviously with Sun Yanhong, and even if she tried to find an excuse to leave, Chen Feng would quickly find out about her through Sun Yanhong and could track her down.

Once Chen Feng collected his thoughts, he looked at Sun Yanhong and asked, "Is this your friend? How should I address her?"

Just moments ago, while the two of them were eyeing each other in a daze, the other three people present saw it all. Initially, they thought the two knew each other, but now seeing Chen Feng's question, the three had peculiar expressions.

If the two did not know each other, this mutual gaze lasting at least five or six seconds was somewhat telling.

Not quite love at first sight, but clearly, there was a mutual attraction.

Chen Feng was strong and handsome, with an outstanding aura, while Zhou Qianru was mature and intellectual, graceful and elegant. Despite their age difference, each had qualities that attracted the other.

Sun Yanhong had similar thoughts and felt a bit envious, yet she maintained her composure and intended to make introductions when Zhou Qianru spoke first: "My surname is Zhou and I'm Yanhong's friend."

Inwardly, she still didn't want Chen Feng to know her full name or any other personal information. After all, she was now married, and didn't want Chen Feng disturbing her life.

Chen Feng replied with a bright smile, "I'm Chen Feng. What's your name?"

Though reluctant, Zhou Qianru felt she could not refuse, and said her name with a slightly forced expression: "Zhou Qianru."

"A great name," Chen Feng sincerely praised. It wasn't easy; after eight years of knowing her, today he finally learned her name.

Zhou Qianru couldn't help but roll her eyes at him. After not seeing him for years, Chen Feng was clearly no longer the timid little man he once was in her presence.

Seeing Chen Feng's excitement toward Zhou Qianru, Sun Yanhong felt there was something peculiar in his gaze. She couldn't help but jokingly say, "Chen Feng, Qianru is my good friend, but it's a pity she already has a husband, so don't get any ideas."

Chen Feng thought, you also have a husband, yet you are still interested in me.

"Don't talk nonsense." Zhou Qianru slightly reprimanded and then said, "I have some things to attend to, so I'll head off now."

She really didn't want much contact with Chen Feng; instinctively, she wanted to flee.

Sun Yanhong noticed Zhou Qianru's uneasy state. Previously, in the private room, the two had agreed that Zhou Qianru would help observe Chen Feng, as sometimes outsiders can see things more clearly, and perhaps she might notice something amiss about Chen Feng.

However, after just encountering Chen Feng, Zhou Qianru wanted to leave.

Sun Yanhong didn't want her to leave now. Having her by her side was surely better than being alone.

Moreover, seeing Chen Feng's interest in her, maybe with her involved, he wouldn't resist arranging a date with Sun Yanhong.

"Wait for me, just half an hour, okay?"

Sun Yanhong looked at her pleadingly.

Seeing her like this, Zhou Qianru could only sigh silently and reluctantly agree.

After all, she was already exposed. Chen Feng knew her name, and given his acquaintance with Sun Yanhong, it made little sense to try and hide some personal information from him.

Staying an extra half hour was just an extra half hour.

However, she had no intention of sitting at the same table with the four others (including Chen Feng), as five people at a table would be slightly cramped.

She moved to the adjacent tea table and began fiddling with her phone, showing no intent to participate in their conversation.

"Let's get back to our earlier topic. Shi, apologize to Chen Feng, and let the previous misunderstanding be bygone. Chen Feng, what do you think?"

Sun Yanhong quickly redirected the conversation.

"I have no objections," Chen Feng shook his head.

He didn't insist on Shi Xiangnan pouring tea as an apology, but if not, future issues might arise, where Shi might again seek his help.

Simply put, Chen Feng wanted to give him a lesson, making him recognize his own standing.

Even if Chen Feng and Liu Ying were married, he wouldn't consider the relationship with Liu Ying's uncle as particularly close.

Furthermore, Chen Feng and Liu Ying weren't married, yet Shi was still wielding his elder relative status to pressurize Chen Feng for favors. That was unrealistic and almost treating Chen Feng as a fool.

Shi Xiangnan, seeing Chen Feng giving him no face, was obviously irritated, but outwardly he stayed calm and natural.

After years in business, he had mastered such composure.

"Alright, I'll take tea as wine and pour tea as an apology to Chen Feng."

Shi Xiangnan acted swiftly, saying nothing unnecessary, stood up and picked up the teapot on the table, bending slightly to pour tea into Chen Feng's cup.

Then, he raised his own tea cup and addressed Chen Feng, "Chen Feng, I apologize to you publicly here for my mistake yesterday."

Having said that, he drained his teacup in one gulp, and intentionally nodded to Chen Feng.

Seeing this, Chen Feng said nothing, merely nodded slightly, raised his teacup, took a sip, and set it down again.

His deliberate attitude almost infuriated Shi Xiangnan, but he could only hold back in front of Sun Yanhong, not daring to let his expression betray him.

This grudge remained with him.

This matter is not over!

Shi Xiangnan vowed silently, that should the opportunity arise, he would make sure Chen Feng pays for today's humiliation.

"Great, this matter is past now." After saying this, Sun Yanhong turned to Chen Feng with an earnest look, "Chen Feng, I also want to apologize to you. Initially, I asked Shi to invite you to join us. I really meant no harm, just wanted to make some money together and get to know you. It wasn't my intention to cause any misunderstanding, and that's on me."

If it wasn't for seeing Zhou Qianru earlier, Chen Feng would've surely given her the cold shoulder now. But with Zhou Qianru sitting at the neighboring table opposite him, he didn't want to disregard Sun Yanhong.

"No problem, it's alright once it's clarified. I appreciate your gesture, but I'm really not interested in your project."

Sun Yanhong did not insist further, only remarked regretfully, "That's truly a pity. This project is a sure-win, otherwise, I wouldn't have invited you to join."

At this moment, Jin Yongnian suddenly chimed in with a cheerful laugh, "President Sun, since Chen Feng isn't keen to join, how about me? You know, I sold the company earlier and have some spare money. It's not a good idea to just leave it sitting in the bank."
