Chapter 227: Chapter 146 Mengyao, You’ve Turned Bad_2

Sure enough, she sang the whole song without going off pitch or breaking voiced, but Guo Mengyao’s watery eyes kept darting over, her gaze intense, which made Chen Feng feel somewhat uneasy.

After that song ended, Wu Mengting also took the initiative to sing "Rooftop" with Chen Feng.

Finally, Lin Yujiao also came forward to sing "Lovers in the World" with Chen Feng, which made things a bit difficult for him. He couldn’t keep up with the lyrics at first and, unsurprisingly, went off key in the high notes.

Not only did this make Wu Mengting and Guo Mengyao laugh back and forth, but Lin Yujiao also couldn’t continue because of her laughter.

At that point, Chen Feng stopped singing.

Among the laughter of the three women, everyone wrapped up their karaoke session.

Guo Mengyao kept her word and took everyone out for bird’s nest soup.

By then, Wu Mengting and Lin Yujiao had warmed up to her and didn’t refuse. As for Chen Feng, he obviously had no intention of refusing.

So, the four of them got into Chen Feng’s car, with Wu Mengting driving, and under Guo Mengyao’s directions, they arrived at a stewed dish restaurant.

The place wasn’t large, but its decorations screamed nouveau riche.

When the four arrived, there weren’t many other patrons.

Guo Mengyao confidently walked up to the front desk and ordered four stew pots, three with papaya stewed bird’s nest for the ladies, and one with cordyceps for Chen Feng.

"This restaurant’s owner is a relative of my family. I get an 80% discount here. It’s been opened for over a decade, an old brand, and both the bird’s nest and cordyceps are genuinely authentic," said Guo Mengyao.

Shortly after her introduction, the four stew pots were served.

Chen Feng tasted it and had to admit it was delicious. He’d never had such nourishing food before and was glad to have finally tried it.

After finishing their dishes, it was already past eleven.

Yet Guo Mengyao showed no sign of saying goodbye and insisted on going to see a movie.

Chen Feng mentioned that movie theaters should be closed by now, but Guo Mengyao stated they were still open, at least until the early hours.

Chen Feng was skeptical, but also wanted to quash her determination, so the four headed to a nearby cinema. The old county wasn’t very big, and a car ride around took just a few minutes.

Parking the car outside the cinema, they went over and found to their surprise the doors were still open. Chen Feng was genuinely enlightened.

He’d never known that the town cinema operated so late.

Since it was indeed open, and since they were all there, the group had no objections and went in to buy movie tickets for a 3D blockbuster, which astonishingly cost over a hundred each, adding up to more than six hundred for the four of them—a frankly exorbitant price.

However, once inside the theater, they realized they were the only four in there.

It made sense though, not many people would come to watch a movie at this time, and with tickets priced over a hundred, one might as well spend the money on a hotel room for some rest.

Considering they essentially paid over six hundred Yuan to have the theater to themselves, it seemed somewhat justified.

The movie began, and all four put on their 3D glasses.

Chen Feng was seated between Wu Mengting on his left and Guo Mengyao on his right, with Lin Yujiao, his "official" girlfriend, sitting beside Wu Mengting.

Just as the movie started, a giant white shark leaped out from the screen, looking very realistic, startling everyone. Chen Feng was okay, but all four women screamed out.

Then Chen Feng felt his right hand being grabbed by Guo Mengyao sitting next to him, directly on his hand—not on his arm or wrist.

For a moment, Chen Feng shivered all over, wanting to pull away, but for some reason, he ended up not doing so.

Fortunately, everyone was wearing 3D glasses, and the theater was dimly lit, so nobody noticed their intimate handholding.

Wu Mengting and Lin Yujiao didn’t notice either.

Chen Feng couldn’t help but vainly think, was Guo Mengyao craving his body?

Chen Feng hesitated whether to flirt back with a touch to see her reaction.

But soon after, Guo Mengyao withdrew her hand.

Chen Feng felt somewhat disappointed. Was she just subconsciously scared and accidentally grabbed his hand?

That was all Chen Feng could guess.

He quickly dismissed the inappropriate thoughts he’d had and focused on watching the movie.

Despite currently maintaining three mistresses, he still considered himself a gentleman, at least not the type to entangle with married women or underage girls.

He was quite principled in that respect.

Although previously Guo Mengyao had mentioned she and her husband had been separated for nearly a year, they weren’t divorced yet. Officially, she was still a married woman.

So, although Chen Feng had found her attractive before, he had not thought about dirty thoughts like getting her into bed.

The movie continued, and after some intense opening scenes, it followed the typical Hollywood narrative techniques, introducing the background and then featuring long character dialogues.

After about fifteen minutes, there was another scene of a high-altitude fall, which once again scared the three women into screaming.

Then, Guo Mengyao’s hand found its way into Chen Feng’s right hand again.

Damn it! Was this unintentional again?

If it were truly unintentional, a subconscious action would have made grabbing his arm much easier than grabbing his hand.

Besides, Chen Feng’s hand was under the seat, not on the armrest.

Not to mention, calling the first time an accident, it got harder to pass the second time as an accident.

Chen Feng resisted the urge to turn his head to look at her and continued to act indifferently like a puppet, suppressing the impulse to stroke her palm with his finger.

This time, she held on noticeably longer than the first time.

The first time was less than a minute, but this time it lasted over two minutes, while the intense scene in the movie lasted less than thirty seconds.

Her apparent flirting and hinting were clear.

Chen Feng had to admire her boldness at this point; it was quite something. Moreover, like him, she kept a straight face watching the movie, with no turning or twisting her head.

Chen Feng really wanted to say to her, "Mengyao, you’ve turned naughty!"

Having done it twice, there would definitely be a third time, especially since Chen Feng had shown no signs of "resisting," which made her even more reckless.

The third time she held Chen Feng’s hand, a finger intentionally scratched lightly at his palm.

It tickled Chen Feng from his palm to his heart and right down to his feet.

This damn seductress!

Since she was already behaving this way, Chen Feng playing a wooden figure anymore would simply undermine his dignity as a man.

So, Chen Feng also curled a finger and scratched back.

Guo Mengyao’s body jerked suddenly, and she giggled a few times.

Turns out she was very ticklish and quickly pulled her hand back.

At this moment, the movie depicted a scene of widespread carnage, and Guo Mengyao’s sudden laughter made both Wu Mengting and Lin Yujiao stretch their heads to look over.

Luckily, their hands had already separated by then.

Guo Mengyao laughed and explained, "I just thought the plot was a bit nonsensical and couldn’t help laughing."

Wu Mengting earnestly agreed, "Yes. The plot is a bit unreasonable; these people are too foolish, blindly disregarding advice. Surely there must be a few smart ones among so many people."

Lin Yujiao said, "That’s foreign films for you, impressive scenes but sometimes the plots don’t hold up to scrutiny."

Chen Feng was speechless for a good while inside.

The three women talked for a bit and then resumed watching the movie.

After another quiet fifteen minutes, during a thrilling scene, Guo Mengyao screamed and grabbed his hand again.

This time she didn’t scratch the palm of his hand, but Chen Feng did.

Guo Mengyao jerked her whole body, trying hard to hold it in, but eventually burst out laughing.

Lin Yujiao and Wu Mengting looked over at her again.

Chen Feng teasingly asked, "What made you laugh this time?"

In the movie, the male and female protagonists were desperately fleeing together; there was absolutely nothing funny about it.

Guo Mengyao turned and glared at Chen Feng, but it was futile since everyone was wearing 3D glasses; her glare went unnoticed.

"I... I just couldn’t help laughing at how in Hollywood blockbusters, you often see the male and female leads holding hands while escaping."

Indeed, it seemed that was often the case.

Chen Feng couldn’t help but admire her quick thinking and ability to make up stories on the fly; no wonder she was the female CEO of a company worth two hundred million.
