After my divorce, I started to have good luck

Sun Xiaorui suddenly said, "Brother Feng told us about this before. You know, Brother Feng actually loves peace and quiet, and he's afraid of noise. He fears that if too many people live together, we might have conflicts, and he's also afraid of 'three women in one play'."

This didn't sit well with Liu Ying, and she said with a slightly stiff smile, "Three women in one play isn't always an absolute. I've never been one to gossip about others."

Sun Xiaorui smiled slightly and said, "I'm the same. But it's useless; Brother Feng has decided that if we live together, there might be conflicts, so it's understandable that he didn't let you move in. But he's been good to you. That villa E06 has been empty for a while, and a close friend of Mengting wanted to live in it, but Brother Feng didn't agree. Now you live there alone, in such a big house, it's quite extravagant just thinking about it."

Liu Ying laughed, "That's true. That villa is top-notch in this villa community, and the interior is chic and trendy. Chen Feng letting me live in such a large house by myself is really nice for me."

Sun Xiaorui chuckled softly but said nothing further.

Wu Mengting then stood up directly and said, "You chat, I'm going upstairs."

After speaking, Wu Mengting went straight upstairs, pretending to be oblivious to their subtle verbal sparring, with no intention to join in.

In the end, since Chen Feng has already accepted Liu Ying, and she's almost on the same level as Sun Xiaorui, there's really no need for her, Chen Feng's sworn sister, to help Sun Xiaorui against her.

Of course, sometimes when a nudge is needed, she will give it, but she certainly won't get directly involved. As Chen Feng's sworn sister, she needs to be a bit more detached.

Once Wu Mengting left, Sun Xiaorui found it hard to excuse herself, and Liu Ying didn't seem to have plans to leave immediately, continuing to watch the TV commercials with apparent interest.

After a while, Liu Ying suddenly asked, seemingly casually, "I heard from Chen Feng that he's supporting you, how much does he give you a month?"

As soon as Sun Xiaorui heard this, her anger surged, and she couldn't help but say, "I also heard from Brother Feng that he gave you money, but it should be less than what I get. I also heard that this time it was you who pursued him, is that true?"

This infuriated Liu Ying, but she couldn't explode, because Sun Xiaorui was telling the truth.

"He did give me money, but it was just pocket money, not support. As for me pursuing him this time, I admit it. Because when we were in college, we had feelings for each other starting from freshman year. He even pursued me madly. We have a foundation of feelings. Now I want to rekindle that past bond, it's as simple as that."

Sun Xiaorui wasn't angry this time, just calmly staring at her and said, "I know what you're planning, you want to marry Brother Feng, right? I can only tell you, that's not possible. He won't marry a woman like you."

Liu Ying, holding back her anger, asked in return, "And you think you might have a chance?"

Sun Xiaorui laughed, "I clearly don't have a chance now either. But at least I can still live with him openly."

Hearing this, Liu Ying's blood pressure skyrocketed.

She wanted to say something unpleasant, but ultimately held back.

She just stood up abruptly, bent over to pick up the tarts from the tray on the coffee table, and turned towards the door without a word.

They both knew very well that they were competitors. With only the two of them present, there was no need to pretend.

Chen Feng had no idea that Sun Xiaorui and Liu Ying had already clashed in private.

In fact, even if he did know, he wouldn't care too much. As long as things didn't get out of hand, no fistfights or screaming matches, he'd just turn a blind eye.

What he was most concerned about now was his ex-wife.

After leaving the villa, he went straight to the hospital, and as expected, Shen Lin was still asleep.

After dismissing the nanny, Chen Feng sat on a chair in the private hospital room, crossing his legs and browsing his phone.

Previously, when he was home, he didn't feel like browsing. But after seeing his sleeping ex-wife at the hospital, he found the interest. Or rather, sitting idly by was boring, so he might as well play on his phone.

So he sat in the ward, skimming short videos for a while, then reading online novels. Time passed quickly.

Around 11:30 in the morning, Shen Lin finally woke up. At this time, Chen Feng was still sitting on a chair diagonally opposite, engrossed in the novel.

She turned her head and saw him, a faintly gratified smile appearing at the corner of her mouth. Then she coughed twice, immediately drawing Chen Feng's attention from the novel.

"You're awake?" Chen Feng put away his phone, stood up, and walked over to her, looking at her with a somewhat complicated expression.

"Mm. Why am I here? Did you bring me to the hospital?" Shen Lin asked, a bit confused.

"I brought you here. You overdosed on sleeping pills. What made you take sleeping pills like that?"

Shen Lin showed a hint of a bitter smile, "Soon after the divorce, I started having insomnia. Often, I couldn't sleep in the middle of the night, or I'd wake up suddenly at two or three in the morning and find it hard to fall back asleep. So, I started taking sleeping pills: first one, then two, and now if I can't sleep, I have to take three or four."

"How many did you take this time?" Chen Feng asked calmly.

Shen Lin, a bit embarrassed, said, "I took five this time, hoping to fall asleep quickly. I didn't expect to alarm you. You're not mad at me, are you?"

Hearing she wasn't suicidal lightened Chen Feng's mood considerably, and he shook his head with a smile, "Your earlier message to me caused a misunderstanding. I thought you were trying to harm yourself."

Hearing this, Shen Lin looked downcast and said sadly, "I really regret divorcing you. It's not because you've become wealthy, but because I've realized I still haven't moved on, nor do I want to. We could have been very happy, but both you and I ruined it."

Chen Feng watched her for a moment and sighed, "We're adults now. Sometimes, what needs to be let go should be let go, even if we can't let it go, we have to. That's the helplessness of life."

"We're not that old yet. In the past, we had no choice but to have regrets and helplessness. But now I think we don't need to have regrets or helplessness. We're both still single: you're unmarried, and I'm unwed. Why not try to let us start over?"

Shen Lin said this and reached out to hold Chen Feng's hand, looking at him with gentle eyes.
