CHAPTER 538: CHAPTER 300 SUSPECT

Chen Feng had no idea that after he left, something entertaining happened at Yang Restaurant.

Kong Tianlu, Tang Yue, and the mistress Xia Xiaozhen were wrapped up in a love triangle, infidelity, and the original wife fought with the mistress, while the husband stepped in to defend the mistress against the wife.

In this dramatic scene, the onlookers watched with great interest. Yang and his wife initially tried to intervene, but Tang Yue was beyond reason. So they silently called the police and stood aside, watching the three of them in a messy fight, while calculating how much compensation would be appropriate.

Chen Feng found out about it about half an hour later because Kong Tianlu called him to ask if he could pick him up from the police station.

And when Chen Feng asked, he found out, of course.

To this, Chen Feng could only smile wryly. It was indeed quite a dramatic situation, but unfortunately, he missed the live action. Now he had to go to the police station to bail him out, how frustrating.

It made him look as though he were on very good terms with Kong Tianlu. However, Chen Feng could understand why he was called.

The reason being that Chen Feng wasn’t part of his social circle; this sort of thing is better kept from family and friends.

And since Chen Feng was an outsider to his social circle and already knew about it, calling him to the police station made sense.

There was no choice; the two had just parted not long ago, and Chen Feng had just enjoyed a free meal from him. Plus, when someone asks for help, Chen Feng would oblige.

It happened to be in Qin Zhen’s jurisdiction, but there was no need to trouble Qin Zhen over this matter. All Chen Feng needed to do was sign a paper; he didn’t even need to advance money for Kong Tianlu.

The only downside was that he didn’t get to see Tang Yue, whom Chen Feng disliked; otherwise, he could have had satisfaction from seeing her current state, along with the mistress Xia Xiaozhen, who wasn’t there either.

Chen Feng led a disheveled Kong Tianlu out of the police station. Kong Tianlu wanted to drag Chen Feng along to have another round of drinks, but Chen Feng didn’t want to and declined directly.

Kong Tianlu could only helplessly bid farewell to Chen Feng, leaving dejectedly.

Kong Tianlu had clearly underestimated everything before; he thought that after divorcing Tang Yue, he could live happily ever after with his true love, Xia Xiaozhen.

He completely underestimated Tang Yue’s combativeness; today was just a prelude to more and bitter battles waiting for him and Xia Xiaozhen.

This is entirely understandable; Tang Yue had been with him since her teens, being together for almost ten years. She sacrificed her youth and emotions for him, and now what she received in return was betrayal.

How could she willingly agree to divorce and allow him to live happily with the mistress?

There’s no such logic in the world.

So, Tang Yue was bound to cause a scene. This time, she fought with the mistress, and he got caught in the skirmish as well. After giving her a slap at the beginning, Kong Tianlu had to act as a human shield for Xia Xiaozhen, taking the hits for her.

Fortunately, the police arrived in time; otherwise, he might have ended up in the hospital today. As the police came, Tang Yue was already threatening to throw hot oil.

Chen Feng was also worried that if they went drinking, Tang Yue might suddenly show up, causing trouble for him.

Therefore, in the upcoming period, he intended to avoid any meetings with Kong Tianlu if possible.

Chen Feng was a man who disliked trouble. Now that Kong Tianlu was trouble, he intended to avoid it as much as he could.

The main point is that the two of them weren’t truly close friends, unlike Qin Zhen, who was a real friend. If it were Qin Zhen, Chen Feng wouldn’t avoid him but would actively help instead.

Back home, he was finally able to settle down and focus on cultivating quietly.

The apartment was quiet with only him there; the community was also very peaceful, making it quite suitable for meditating.

And so it went until the two Sun and Wu women came back home from work, and Chen Feng came out from the practice room.

"Brother, we have something we need to discuss with you."

As Chen Feng came down from upstairs, Wu Mengting asked him with a serious face, making him feel a bit nervous.

"What is it?"

On the surface, Chen Feng naturally appeared relaxed and casual, speaking as he sat down on the sofa.

"We’re considering firing someone at the company; do you approve?" Wu Mengting continued to ask seriously.

Chen Feng heard this and felt a great sense of relief, curiously asking, "Who are you talking about? It’s not Lu Sijia, is it?"

He was a bit curious. Both Wu Mengting and Sun Xiaorui were quite easygoing, and it was rare for someone to upset both of them at the same time, especially at work. The only one higher in position than them would be Lu Sijia, but Lu Sijia had just joined them for a meal at noon, and the three seemed to be chatting happily. So it shouldn’t be her.

Wu Mengting stared at Chen Feng, emphasizing each syllable: "Yang~ Wen~ Qi!"

Chen Feng was taken aback, surprised, "Why are you firing her? Did she do something wrong?"

Wu Mengting stared at Chen Feng for a while, noticing no sign of panic or guilt from him, which bewildered her.

After analyzing with Sun Xiaorui, they concluded that the most likely person who caused Chen Feng to stay out all night the previous day was Yang Wenqi.

Firstly, Yang Wenqi has both very high looks and temperament, and she is currently an artist signed with the company. Her trying to curry favor with Chen Feng, hoping the company would back her more wholeheartedly, could naturally lead to offering herself to him.

And it’s not unusual for Chen Feng, the boss, to take advantage of a female artist under his own company.

Additionally, Yang Wenqi had just treated him to a meal the day before, and she was present as well.

Although Yang Wenqi appeared normal throughout, Wu Mengting thought about it afterward and felt that in certain subtle ways, it was evident she admired Chen Feng as her boss with a faint affection.

As for Jin Xinyan, Wu Mengting had her doubts too, but it was their first meeting with Chen Feng. So even though Jin Xinyan openly showed her admiration for Chen Feng, Wu Mengting ruled her out.

Because Wu Mengting believed it unlikely that they would open a room together on the first meet, and Chen Feng wouldn’t be so hasty and superficial.

So, after thinking it over with Sun Xiaorui, they could only pin it on Yang Wenqi.

"I think she’s manipulative. She’s too beautiful, and her presence greatly impacts the male employees’ unity at the company. In the morning, two male employees almost got into a fight vying for the chance to get close to her. Several male employees have shown intentions, and some have even started pursuing her."

Wu Mengting wasn’t lying. After Yang Wenqi joined their company, male employees, including married ones, seemed highly energized every day.

Not only did they arrive early for work, but their work enthusiasm was also very high, all striving to perform impressively, hoping to catch Yang Wenqi’s attention. Even if it was just for a brief moment.

Of course, besides Yang Wenqi, Xin Yuqing was also quite beautiful, but she was in charge of recruitment and interviewing these employees from the beginning, serving as the secretary for Wu Mengting and Sun Xiaorui, and some suspected she, like the two Sun and Wu women, had an ambiguous relationship with boss Chen Feng.
