Chapter 276: Chapter 170: Making a Fool of Myself

Hong Xiaodan is quite a character.

To be fair, she’s a bit proud, but any rich girl tends to have this mindset when facing grassroots men. It’s an innate sense of superiority brought about by class differences, unavoidable.

It unconsciously reveals itself during your conversation and interaction with her.

This has little to do with upbringing or demeanor; it’s the psychological cause of the different social strata.

It’s like when ordinary people see beggars or homeless people, there’s always a superior feeling in their psyche, which is also hard to avoid.

So, Chen Feng can’t say he dislikes her, he just feels they’re from completely different worlds with different personalities. Even if he had no woman by his side, he wouldn’t choose someone like her.

Especially, although there are quite a few women who smoke, Chen Feng just can’t stand women who smoke.

This is not gender discrimination, but in his view, no matter how beautiful a woman who smokes is, her charm is greatly diminished.

Since he’s not interested in her, and both their families aren’t present, Chen Feng certainly doesn’t have to be polite to her.

Facing her somewhat displeased look, Chen Feng was completely unconcerned; instead, he smiled and said candidly, "You can think of it that way."

Hong Xiaodan was evidently surprised that Chen Feng would be so direct, giving such a reply. After a moment of blankness, she uttered another interjection, "Crap."

"Alright then. Since you have a girlfriend, it’s normal not to take a liking to me."

Hong Xiaodan found a reason she thought was reasonable for Chen Feng. She would never believe she wasn’t attractive enough.

Chen Feng just smiled and didn’t argue.

He took out his phone and looked at the time, it was 6:30 in the evening.

"What’s up? Are you thinking of leaving?"

Hong Xiaodan asked proactively.

Chen Feng nodded, calmly stood up, and said, "Since neither of us is interested, it’s indeed unnecessary to waste each other’s time. I’ll take my leave first. I’ll go and call my aunt down."

"Wait." Just as Chen Feng was about to leave, Hong Xiaodan shouted to stop him.

When Chen Feng looked at her in confusion, she smiled and said, "Actually, I’m quite interested in you now. What do you say, should we try dating? I believe I’m no worse than your girlfriend."

This was her once again proactively suggesting dating, and it was part of her personality too. But Chen Feng wouldn’t naively believe she was genuinely interested in him.

It’s likely that this rich girl was too bored or wanted to find a man she found somewhat okay-looking to fend off her family’s pressure for marriage.

But Chen Feng didn’t have the time to play house with her.

"I can see you don’t really fancy me, so why bother? If you need someone to play games with you or deal with your family, you should find someone else; I’m not suitable."

Hong Xiaodan giggled, then gave Chen Feng a thumbs-up and said, "You’ve got guts! You’re the first man to be so audacious in front of me."

Chen Feng couldn’t be bothered with her; he pulled out his phone to call his aunt.

Seeing this, Hong Xiaodan hurriedly stopped him and said, "You’re really something, can’t you wait for me to finish?

"What else is there to say?" Chen Feng asked her strangely.

Hong Xiaodan calmly said, "Even if we can’t be a couple, I think we can be friends, right? Give me your WeChat so I can add you as a friend."

After a brief hesitation, Chen Feng opened his WeChat for her to scan.

After becoming friends, Chen Feng didn’t waste words with her, and directly called his aunt, saying the talk here was done.

Soon, his aunt and Mrs. Hong both came down from upstairs.

"You’re done talking so soon?" Mrs. Hong said somewhat disappointedly.

"It was Brother Chen who wanted to leave, I still wanted to chat more with him." Hong Xiaodan pouted slightly.

Chen Xiaoxia knew the situation, accompanying with a smile she said, "There’s always plenty of time. Now it’s getting dark, they can contact each other and meet up when they’re free."

Hearing this, Mrs. Hong nodded and smiled at Chen Feng saying, "Little Chen, since you’re here, why don’t you stay in Tianzhou for a few more days, our Little Dan happens to have some free time these days too."

Chen Feng could only smile politely in response.

Seeing this, Mrs. Hong thought Chen Feng agreed. But Hong Xiaodan knew Chen Feng probably wasn’t willing, which made her pout slightly in irritation.

This middle-aged divorced man is really too arrogant!

Aunt Chen Xiaoxia exchanged a few more courteous words with Mrs. Hong before taking Chen Feng to leave.

After the car started, Chen Xiaoxia proudly said to Chen Feng, "It seems now that both Little Dan and her mom are quite satisfied with you. Haven’t you really considered it?"

Chen Feng directly shook his head saying, "We’re completely from two different worlds, and she’s also not my type."

"Ah, that’s such a shame." Chen Xiaoxia sighed somewhat helplessly, "You’ve seen her family’s great conditions, their house is like a castle, and her father’s corporate group is worth billions. If you marry Little Dan, you might very well inherit such a huge enterprise in the future."

"What isn’t mine shouldn’t be coveted. Besides, I’m actually not short of money now, there’s no need to eye her family." Chen Feng said in an indifferent tone.

"Oh my, silly child, your not-short-on-money can’t compare to her family’s." Chen Xiaoxia shook her head saying, "I think you better consider it carefully again, once this opportunity passes, it won’t come again. It’s a rare chance. If you miss this time, you’re missing out on tens of billions."

This is indeed a matter of tens of billions of assets. If Chen Feng wasn’t sick, he might really have succumbed to such a huge fortune’s temptation.

But now his own assets are almost a billion, and since he could kick the bucket anytime, others’ billions in assets don’t really make him waver.

Different circumstances lead to different perspectives; wealth now doesn’t hold much allure for Chen Feng.

Chen Feng couldn’t openly express all of this, so he could only tactfully say, "Mainly because I’m not attracted to this Hong Xiaodan. She doesn’t really care much about me either. So, there’s no need to continue further. Plus, I already have a girlfriend."

Chen Xiaoxia rolled her eyes at him saying, "Not only a girlfriend but also a sworn sister."

Chen Feng awkwardly smiled without saying more.

Over at the Hong family, as soon as Chen Feng and his aunt left, Mrs. Hong immediately asked Hong Xiaodan, "How do you find Little Chen?"

Hong Xiaodan nodded with a smile saying, "Pretty good."

"I thought so." Mrs. Hong clapped her hands joyfully saying, "Little Chen’s demeanor is steady and his looks handsome. He obviously has a gentle and homely personality, perfect for you."

Hong Xiaodan shook her head with a wry smile saying, "I’m quite satisfied with him, thinking about getting to know him more deeply. But he doesn’t seem to fancy me, he has clearly stated it."

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Hong’s face froze immediately, and she said somewhat angrily, "What does this Little Chen mean? You’re so beautiful, plus our family’s such good conditions, and he still doesn’t fancy you?"

Hong Xiaodan shrugged saying, "He should have some ability, and maybe a bit of money too. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be so calm after coming to our house, or clearly refusing to date me."
