Chapter 54: Chapter 54: The Hardest Favor to Enjoy is from a Beauty

Wu Mengting thought she had a good plan and was very confident.

However, when they caught up with Chen Feng and Wu Mengting approached to speak,

Chen Feng rejected them without hesitation, "It’s really not convenient to join you guys. We want to have our own private world."

His words struck Wu Mengting like a bolt from the blue, leaving her speechless and stunned on the spot.

The thoughts she had before now seemed to be born out of wishful thinking.

At this moment, she truly felt the sensation of heartbreak.

Was she being despised by someone?

Or should she say, did Chen Feng prefer Sun Xiaorui, a woman who could be kept, over her, a decent girl?

Heh, what wishful thinking!

Wu Mengting’s self-esteem and confidence were severely damaged.

Lin Wan, of course, sensed her emotion and discontentedly said, "Brother Feng, your words are too hurtful, aren’t they? Besides, you two aren’t even boyfriend and girlfriend, how can it be just the two of you?"

"We are lovers, of course, it’s just the two of us," Chen Feng replied calmly.

"Not boyfriend and girlfriend but lovers? You guys are really open."

Lin Wan couldn’t help but be sarcastic.

Sun Xiaorui also responded calmly with a light laugh, "We are both single, have good feelings toward each other, but aren’t ready to be lovers yet, starting as lovers is just perfect."

"Really, I’m done with you two."

Seeing that Wu Mengting was deeply hurt, Lin Wan developed a grudge against the couple and stopped being nice.

Chen Feng seemed unconcerned, glanced at Wu Mengting who was silently bowing her head, and sighed inwardly.

The hardest is to refuse the kindness of a beauty!

If he wasn’t suffering from a terminal illness right now, why would he be polite to such a pure, beautiful, young woman who was interested in him? They would’ve been passionately involved already.

Pushing her away time and again, cutting off emotional ties with tears, he was also sorrowful, wasn’t he?

But precisely because the girl fell for him innocently, he couldn’t respond now, as it might harm her.

In this respect, Chen Feng really wasn’t a jerk.

He could accept being kept by Sun Xiaorui but couldn’t accept Wu Mengting, who offered herself for free.

Still too kind-hearted!

"Let’s go. Let’s head back first. Didn’t you book the afternoon flight? It’s better to head there early."

After saying that, Chen Feng continued walking forward, holding hands with Sun Xiaorui.

Lin Wan and Wu Mengting didn’t follow immediately.

After they had walked some distance, Lin Wan finally spoke to comfort her, "Alright, Tiantian, it’s nothing. I guess he’s either blind or he’s still not over his divorce, not ready for a new relationship. That must be it. So, you shouldn’t take it too hard."

"I’m okay. Also, could you please turn off the live stream first?"

When Wu Mengting said this, even though Lin Wan felt sorry for her, she promptly told her live stream viewers, "Sorry everyone, I have to stop streaming for now. I might start again later, that’s all for now, goodbye."

As soon as she ended the stream, Wu Mengting hugged her, crying a bit sadly.

Lin Wan felt helpless and could only pat her back and continue comforting, "Alright, alright. You’re making me feel guilty. I shouldn’t have encouraged you, making everyone laugh at you."

Saying this made Lin Wan even more upset.

She quickly took a tissue from her bag to wipe Wu Mengting’s tears, her voice filled with a bit of indignation, "Chen Feng was really inconsiderate to embarrass you in front of so many viewers. So tactless, if he’s not interested, then he’s not.

There are plenty of men in the world. Besides, he’s several years older than you and even overweight; you really don’t need to feel sad for him. When we get back, I’ll find someone better for you."

Wu Mengting cried for a while and finally calmed down a bit.

She was heartbroken and cried mainly because her confidence and pride had suffered a double blow.

The loss of love was secondary.

After all, she and Chen Feng hadn’t even started, so technically, it couldn’t be considered a breakup.

But from her childhood, she had never been so explicitly rejected by someone—twice by the same man, no less.

If Chen Feng had simply rejected her, she might not have cried, but the involvement of Sun Xiaorui, the "other woman," made it harder for her to accept.

She believed she was superior to Sun Xiaorui in every way, and since Chen Feng had said that he was keeping her, why couldn’t he take her along as well, instead of leaving her behind and only taking that other woman?

She was not convinced! She felt so indignant! She felt so wronged!

Chen Feng, of course, knew that his unreserved rejection would hurt Wu Mengting.

But what could he do, being a good person? He truly believed it was for her best.

It would prevent her from getting too involved and deeply attached to him, a terminally ill, divorced man.

Otherwise, if the two of them got together, his death would end everything, but what about her?

"Brother Feng, honestly, I don’t mind being with them. Especially Mengting, I can tell she likes you. By rejecting her outright, you’re really making her lose face."

Sun Xiaorui’s words were rational and showed great self-control for someone in her position.

But in truth, she didn’t want to continue letting them follow, she just said so because she saw that Chen Feng seemed a bit down.

It was also a strategic retreat to avoid losing her standing in Chen Feng’s heart.

Chen Feng shook his head and sighed, "Ah, I’m doing this for her own good. Right now, I truly don’t want to start a new relationship. Let’s just say I’m psychologically scarred. I’d rather have an arrangement like ours, where we each get what we need."

"Thanks for the reminder," Sun Xiaorui rolled her eyes.

They walked back to the center of the village and sat down on a bench by the roadside to wait.

It was about ten minutes later when Lin Wan and her companion returned.

"Lin Wan, Mengting, let’s say our goodbyes here. Safe travels."

"Until we meet again."

Chen Feng and Sun Xiaorui formally bid them farewell.

Lin Wan frowned and didn’t respond, but Wu Mengting smiled and waved at them, "Alright then, until we meet again. Safe travels to you too. Goodbye!"

"Goodbye!"

Sun Xiaorui responded with a polite smile, and Chen Feng just nodded at her, the two of them then left hand in hand.

"Fake!"

Lin Wan commented in dissatisfaction, then walked with Wu Mengting back to their hotel.

Their flight was in just over three hours, and it was more than an hour’s drive to the airport from here; they had to leave immediately.

The next morning, Chen Feng and his companion left Beiji Village, returned to Mo County, and spent almost a day visiting several other attractions.

By five in the afternoon, the two set off for the next stop—Hei County’s Five Connected Lakes.

Not lacking money, they took a plane again.

However, due to the short distance between the two places, there was only one flight available, a smaller plane that flew slower and at lower altitudes.

It was essentially a sightseeing flight that allowed for a panoramic view of the scenery along the way.

It took over an hour to arrive, and they walked to the exit, each pulling a suitcase, chatting and laughing.

Then, Sun Xiaorui suddenly widened her eyes, stopped dead in her tracks, and stared in surprise at two people sitting not far ahead.

Those two were none other than Lin Wan and Wu Mengting.

They looked tired, chatting intermittently, and then they also realized something and turned their heads to see Chen Feng and Sun Xiaorui.
