After my divorce, I started to have good luck

Liu Ying suddenly fell silent. She believed that Chen Feng didn't know she was aware of his true wealth, which was her biggest leverage to reignite their old flame, because now her persona was all about prioritizing love over money.

Otherwise, if he knew she was after his money, the chances of success in the future would definitely be greatly reduced.

"Of course I'm anxious. Previously, I didn't know you were... so... outstanding, but I realized it last night. Moreover, you mentioned having close companions and a live-in partner by your side, how could I not be anxious?"

These words were spoken with great skill. Even if Chen Feng knew she was flattering him, he still found it pleasant.

So, Chen Feng softened his tone and said, "Don't worry. I'm not a heartless person, and besides, we are old classmates. Here's the deal: I'll give you thirty thousand yuan each month for pocket money until you find another suitable man."

"What do you mean? Planning to keep me like a kept woman?" Liu Ying was instantly furious, "What do you take me for?"

What she wanted wasn't just thirty thousand a month, but Chen Feng's big house and a luxurious affluent lady's lifestyle. The thirty thousand a month from Chen Feng was far from enough.

"I don't mean anything else, just considering you as my woman. Given our current situation, and since I have a bit of extra money now, I can afford it. Furthermore, you don't have a job or a way to earn money, you can't just live off savings or depend on family, can you?"

"Are you really rich now?" Liu Ying followed the conversation, feigning doubt.

If the room wasn't too dim, one would see her expression was quite convincing, showing genuine surprise about his wealth.

"I guess I have some money. I made a bit from stock trading," Chen Feng said with a touch of modesty.

"Then I'd rather not accept it. I'm not your girlfriend now. What does it mean to spend your money? If I take your money now, what does that make our relationship?"

"It doesn't mean much. It's simply because you're my woman now, so I'm providing you with some financial assistance. It doesn't impose too much on you, and you can still boldly go on dates and find a man more suitable for you."

"… If I really go looking for other men, can you accept it?" Liu Ying gripped her right hand tightly.

Chen Feng sighed softly, appearing understanding as he said, "Of course, there'll be some discomfort in my heart, but after all, I'm not your boyfriend. I have no right to demand anything from you. You have every right to find better, and you deserve better."

Liu Ying suddenly relaxed, releasing her tightly clenched right hand, and said in a gentle yet firm tone, "Don't worry. Before I completely give up on you, I won't go looking for other men."

Chen Feng was momentarily speechless and also quite helpless. He had never intended to have a long-term development with Liu Ying. Now that he was wealthy, why would he choose someone like her, divorced with children and the same age as himself?

Moreover, there was the misunderstanding and scars from their first year in college. He had long lost any emotional foundation with her.

Wu Mengting, Sun Xiaorui, even Lin Yujiao and Xiao Ya were all younger and more energetic than Liu Ying, and more suitable for marriage. At least, they were genuine, not pretentious.

Not to mention, they hadn't left any emotional scars on him before.

"You don't have to do this. Frankly speaking, you're not young anymore. While you're still relatively youthful and beautiful, find a suitable partner. I'm a wanderer now and have no intention of marrying in the next two or three years. If you get stuck on me, I would feel very guilty." Chen Feng pretended to be concerned.

"If you feel guilty, you should accept me sooner. I consider myself not unattractive, and we were college classmates for four years. You even pursued me back then. I am more suitable for you than other women. You're also very suitable for me.

Over the years, I've often thought of you, remembered the college days. If we hadn't missed out, how would things be? Especially after going through an unfortunate first marriage, I have frequent thoughts like this.

That's why I've reached out to you in every possible way, hoping to make up for the regrets of the past, and rekindle our relationship. We could have been a happy couple, don't you think?"

Liu Ying spoke emotionally. These words were the result of rehearsed drafts in her heart countless times.

Another man might have been moved by her words, but unfortunately, Chen Feng had already seen through her "hypocrisy," saw through her materialism, and knew her "intentions" from the beginning, wanting to ensnare him.

Yet Chen Feng had gone with the flow and accepted her, but never gave her any chance to ensnare him.

"I've said it before, regret is useless, everything has to move forward. Making up for regrets, rekindling relationships, ultimately depends on how we get along in the future. Right now, we don't really understand each other. Let's talk later."

Chen Feng's bland response left Liu Ying stunned for quite a while, feeling deeply disappointed. It felt like all her schemes had utterly failed, leaving her mentally exhausted.

"Alright. I'll give you thirty thousand pocket money every month in the future. Don't refuse it, because if you do, it'll seem like you want more from me." Chen Feng said firmly.

"I don't." Liu Ying hesitated.

"Then accept the pocket money I'm offering." Chen Feng insisted.

"…Well, alright, if you insist on giving it, I have no choice." Liu Ying said reluctantly.

Since she couldn't succeed immediately, Liu Ying could only prepare for a long-term strategy. If she didn't take the money, it would be a waste, and accepting it would only confirm in Chen Feng's mind that she was his woman. Besides, she knew Chen Feng wouldn't miss the money; there was really no need to save money for him.

Most importantly, she really was pressed for money right now. The money she received from the divorce was almost spent after returning to the country.

"That's more like it. I'll transfer the money to you right away."

As Chen Feng spoke, he took out his phone and began a series of operations, and soon Liu Ying received a notification of funds received.

"You've transferred me fifty thousand." Liu Ying pointed out.

"The extra twenty thousand is for you to buy something at the mall, consider it a gift from me to you. I have something to do today, so I can't accompany you."

Receiving the money made Liu Ying feel much better, but hearing that, she felt a bit disappointed—did he not have time even to accompany her to the mall?

But she had just received fifty thousand from Chen Feng, so it wasn't a good time to express any grievances, lest it displeases him. All she could say was, "Alright, when I was at the mall earlier, I set my eyes on a bag costing over ten thousand, I really liked it, and I'll go buy it this time."

"Yes, as long as you like it, go ahead and buy it." Chen Feng said casually.

"You're really good to me." Liu Ying happily kissed him.

She voluntarily pulled his arm to rest her head on his chest.
