CHAPTER 664: CHAPTER 362 DOING GOOD DEEDS AND RECEIVING BLESSINGS_2
Speaking of which, there isn’t much difference between them, and Xie Xiaohua even feels he’s wealthier than Chen Feng. Because his house in Shanghai is now worth ten million, and the mortgage is almost paid off, plus his electronics store makes at least 200,000 a year.
On the other hand, although Chen Feng runs some kind of film company now, he might not be richer. Everyone knows that making TV shows is risky and losing money is common.
Zhong Mingjie has a house in Beijing that’s worth seven or eight million, and he’s also been paying off the mortgage for several years. The couple earns more than 200,000 a year.
"You’re really surprising. How did you start a film company? Do you have any stars signed? As a boss, have you ever had any unspoken rules with actresses?" Xie Xiaohua asked with a laugh.
"Alright. Stop talking about such low-class things." Chen Feng rolled his eyes at him, pushing away the hand on his shoulder, "Our company hasn’t signed any stars and I’ve definitely not had unspoken rules with any actresses. Besides, I started this company in partnership with someone. The specific operations of the company are managed by my partner, I’m just waiting for the dividends. My partner is a woman."
"Oh, who would believe that?" Xie Xiaohua sneered, skeptical. He even doubted whether Chen Feng actually started some film company, secretly thinking Chen Feng might have made his fortune like that Liao Xiaokai did, through shady methods.
"Aren’t you worried allowing the company to be managed like that without your involvement?"
Zhong Mingjie, on the other hand, believed it and curiously inquired.
Chen Feng explained briefly: "There are my people overseeing finances and human resources within the company."
Zhong Mingjie paused and then gave a thumbs-up, saying: "Impressive."
Chen Feng changed the topic, asking: "When will those two roughly arrive?"
Zhong Mingjie said: "They should be here soon; they said a few minutes ago they’ve already arrived in the county town."
At this moment, Xie Xiaohua interjected: "I have good news for you, Yu Xiaohui is coming too. She’s a close friend of Lou Xiaojiao and, upon hearing Zhang Ming was coming for the gathering, insisted on joining. Hehe, remember you seemed to have an ambiguous relationship with Yu Xiaohui back then, she often passed notes to you."
When Chen Feng heard him mention Yu Xiaohui, he couldn’t help but think of the young girl who sat in front of him then; she often let her hair down but had two thick braids in the middle.
Whenever he lay on the desk to rest, he could see those two thick braids at the back of her head, which was his deepest memory. Also, he recalled her frequently passing notes to ask about problem solutions, which often annoyed him. Most times, he would ignore her and not answer her questions.
Thinking back now, he realized he was just a blockhead not noticing her obvious affection, instead feeling she was bothersome, disturbing his studies.
Chen Feng shook his head with a smile and said: "Nothing like that. She often passed notes to have me solve problems for her back then."
Xie Xiaohua scoffed: "Do you even believe that yourself?"
Zhong Mingjie also shook his head along with him.
"Believe it or not." Chen Feng, looking innocent, couldn’t help but ask, "How’s she doing now?"
Xie Xiaohua, in a teasing tone, said: "I have some good news. She’s now separated from her husband, divorce seems inevitable unless there’s some unexpected change. The main reason for not divorcing yet is probably her husband’s refusal and the asset division issue. Her husband is quite rich, owning a Gold Store, and is the general agent in Xiu Zhou, easily earning millions each year. If she divorces, she could probably get tens of millions from asset division. She’s a bona fide wealthy woman now, and you’re divorced and single, aren’t you? If you have any thoughts, capitalize on them later."
Zhong Mingjie also chuckled: "I think your chances are good too. Her coming over this time is likely because of you. We’re giving you an opportunity, cherish it."
Chen Feng didn’t expect something like this to happen, and it seemed like heaven sent another romantic encounter his way.
This left him quite helpless!
Honestly, speaking of wealthy women, wasn’t high school classmate Guo Mengyao desirable? Guo Mengyao must be richer than Yu Xiaohui, much richer.
Chen Feng shook his head, not arguing; anyway, he didn’t want to hook up with Yu Xiaohui. He believed in his own self-control and character. Besides, she might not even be interested in him.
"What about Zhang Ming and Lou Xiaojiao, how are they doing now?" Chen Feng changed the topic again.
Xie Xiaohua, in a mocking tone, said: "They each have their own families now, but what can I say, their relationship is quite good, quite intimate, you know. If they act too closely later, don’t be surprised; you should remember they were a couple back in school."
Chen Feng could only describe it as messy.
This was truly moral degeneracy! Each having their own families, yet still coming to play and joining such reunions with old classmates, they’re one of a kind.
"Don’t their families know about this? So overtly?"
Upon Chen Feng’s question, both Zhong Mingjie and Xie Xiaohua laughed.
Zhong Mingjie explained with a chuckle: "Lou Xiaojiao is very rich now, filthy rich that is. Her dad is a coal baron, you know? Later, she followed her dad in real estate investment across the country, making a fortune. I dare not say how much, but she probably has tens of millions in assets, owning more than a dozen properties.
Her husband is a layabout, also a gambler; as long as there’s money, he’s agreeable to anything, and her husband isn’t a good guy either. When he wins money from gambling, he finds women, knowing all manners of vice. So now, Lou Xiaojiao and her husband live separate lives; if not for their son and daughter, she would have divorced that moocher ages ago."
When Chen Feng heard this, he understood Lou Xiaojiao a bit and asked again: "What about Zhang Ming? Don’t tell me he also has a bad marital relationship, an unhappy family life?"
"Not really." This time, it was Xie Xiaohua who explained with a laugh, "On the contrary, Zhang Ming and his wife are very loving, with a son and daughter. It’s just that the family isn’t wealthy; Zhang Ming had a business failure a few years back, almost losing their home. Later, he approached Lou Xiaojiao for a loan, and you know the rest; they rekindled their relationship and got together. His wife has known about it for a long time and silently permits it. It’s understandable too; the family owes Lou Xiaojiao a lot, and since Zhang Ming got involved with her, he’s been bringing back money, improving the family’s life, so she turns a blind eye."
Hearing these stories about his middle school classmates, Chen Feng could only say his worldview was shattered.
He thought he was morally bankrupt for keeping a few women, but compared to this, it was nothing.
