After the divorce, I started to transfer

The lunch at Zhao Zixuan's home was generally quite ordinary.

While the dishes weren't extremely lavish or luxurious, they were clearly above the standard of ordinary home-cooked meals. A total of eight dishes were laid out on the table, seven main courses and a soup, enough for four people.

During the meal, Zhao Jianjie, as the father, seemed completely unconcerned about the relationship between his daughter Zhao Zixuan and Chen Feng. Instead, he chatted enthusiastically with Chen Feng about various trivial matters from their hometown.

Meanwhile, Chen Feng's mother, Jin Nianlei, showed great enthusiasm, constantly urging him to eat more. Her enthusiasm was so great that she almost personally picked up food and put it in his rice bowl.

The meal lasted for nearly an hour before Zhao Jianjie left the table first to run errands.

Immediately afterwards, Jin Nianlei also said that she had something to do and needed to go out, so she also left home.

At this moment, only Chen Feng, Zhao Zixuan, and their live-in nanny, Aunt Wang, remained at home. Aunt Wang did not dine with them; she only appeared when serving the dishes.

As a result, only Chen Feng and Zhao Zixuan remained sitting facing each other in the living room.

What exactly is your parents' attitude?

Although Chen Feng already had some guesses in his mind, Zhao Zixuan's parents' laissez-faire attitude still made him feel uneasy, so he couldn't help but ask.

“I don’t know either.” In fact, Zhao Zixuan was even more confused than Chen Feng. “I’m starting to doubt whether I’m my parents’ biological child.”

Seeing this, Chen Feng quickly comforted her, "At least from the current situation, your parents don't object to us continuing our relationship."

"Hmm. So I think my parents won't object to me going to Xiuzhou with you this time. It's really strange, they seem to be very satisfied with you, and they don't even mind that you already have a girlfriend and a child. This is something I didn't expect at all."

At this point, Zhao Zixuan stared intently at Chen Feng, her eyes full of inquiry, and pressed him for details: "Tell me the truth, do you have some powerful background? Or are you actually very wealthy now, far more than what you appear to be?"

Zhao Zixuan was not ignorant. Seeing her parents being so friendly and enthusiastic towards Chen Feng, she guessed that Chen Feng might have many other impressive qualities and outstanding traits that she was unaware of.

When Chen Feng heard her ask this, he thought for a moment and then said, "I have several hundred million US dollars in assets abroad. Your parents may have already found out."

"Hundreds of millions? US dollars? You're not kidding, are you?" Zhao Zixuan stared wide-eyed in surprise, her face full of disbelief.

Chen Feng shrugged, feigning nonchalance, and nodded: "I'm not kidding, it's absolutely true."

"How...how did you earn this money? Was it cash? It wasn't something of dubious origin, was it?"

"It's cash. I earned it by trading cryptocurrencies."

"Cryptocurrency trading is so profitable? How much did you invest initially?"

Zhao Zixuan had previously worked in the financial industry and had some understanding of virtual currencies, so she was somewhat skeptical of Chen Feng's words.

“I initially invested several million, and later invested tens of millions, even hundreds of millions. I was lucky and made this much. I've been trading cryptocurrencies for about two or three years, and it's really not easy to earn this much money.”

Upon hearing these words, Zhao Zixuan's lips twitched slightly, and she secretly sighed inwardly, thinking that he had really pulled off a show of bravado.

"It seems I really underestimated you before; I didn't expect you to be so rich."

After a sigh, Zhao Zixuan continued, "Perhaps my parents do indeed look at you differently because of this. However, I don't think that just because you're rich they allow us to continue our relationship is a sufficient reason. There must be other reasons. Think carefully about whether there are any other reasons that would make my parents so lenient towards you."

In fact, Chen Feng had already thought of his telepathic abilities. He had previously organized a meeting in Beijing and demonstrated this ability in front of several billionaires, who then personally verified it.

Therefore, his possession of telepathy is no longer a secret, and those who have witnessed his abilities are unlikely to keep it a complete secret for him.

Zhao Zixuan's father is of high status, and her maternal grandparents' relatives are all in Beijing, so it wouldn't be difficult for her to find out about Chen Feng's affairs.

However, Chen Feng was too lazy to tell Zhao Zixuan about this somewhat supernatural matter.

After thinking for a moment, Chen Feng decisively shook his head: "I really can't think of anything else. Actually, there's no need to think too much about it. If you're really that curious, you can ask your parents yourself later. I think they'll tell you. We don't need to guess here."

After thinking about it carefully, Zhao Zixuan felt that Chen Feng's words made sense, so she nodded in agreement.

Seeing this, Chen Feng added, "When you get the results, remember to let me know. I'm quite curious too."

The two stayed at Zhao Zixuan's house for more than an hour, during which they mainly went to her room to look at some of her old photos. Zhao Zixuan also told Chen Feng many of her past experiences and stories.

The two then left her house and drove back to FX Island.

Instead of going directly back to Zhao Zixuan's place, they went to FX Island Park first, as agreed beforehand.

The park was bustling with activity, mostly among the elderly. Some were singing their hearts out, some were engrossed in opera performances, and others were dancing joyfully. In addition, many were painting, practicing martial arts, or engaging in qigong.

Of course, there were also quite a few young people and children. Some were playing badminton, some were playing frisbee, and some children were enthusiastically catching tadpoles by the pond.

The two strolled through the park, enjoying the lively scene before them. Occasionally, they would stop and sit down to chat. In this way, an afternoon quickly passed by.

Around 5 p.m., Zhao Zixuan suggested that they go grocery shopping together, planning to cook dinner at home together that evening.

Although Chen Feng had doubts about her cooking skills, he immediately agreed so as not to spoil her fun.

There was a farmers' market next to Zhao Zixuan's residential area. Chen Feng followed her to the market and bought a lot of ingredients, including vegetables, fruits, chicken, duck and fish. These ingredients were enough for the two of them to eat for several days.

After returning to her residence, Zhao Zixuan immediately went into the kitchen and busied herself, showing no intention of asking Chen Feng for help.

Chen Feng was naturally happy to have some free time, so he watched TV and scrolled through his phone in the living room.

He has been here for two days now, and several women from both abroad and China are sending him messages almost every day.

Chen Feng, of course, only replied selectively. Most of the messages from the women in China asked when he would return, and Chen Feng basically ignored these messages.

Brina and Jenny, who were abroad, didn't send many messages, and they weren't anything urgent, so Chen Feng rarely replied. Molly, however, was different; she had serious business with Chen Feng. She was representing Chen Feng to liaise with her mother, seeking cooperation between Chen Feng's foundation and a UN charity.

Molly and her mother went to the relevant departments of the United Nations to learn about the situation, and then reported to Chen Feng, so Chen Feng talked to her for a while.

Chen Feng first checked the unread messages in the living room, and then replied to two of them.

One of the messages was for Liu Ying, who said in the message that her daughter missed him and sent many photos and videos of her daughter. After seeing them, Chen Feng only replied with a bright smiley face emoji.

Another reply came from Shen Lin, who mentioned in her message that she had gone for a prenatal checkup. The results showed that she was somewhat anemic, but the fetus was healthy, and the doctor prescribed some iron supplements for her.

Chen Feng then instructed her to eat more blood-nourishing foods.

Due to the time difference, it was still early morning in Merriam's area, and Brina, Molly, and Jenny hadn't sent any new messages. Chen Feng had read their previous messages and figured they weren't important, so he didn't reply.

Chen Feng waited in the living room for nearly an hour before Zhao Zixuan finally prepared four dishes and a soup and called him over to eat.

Judging from the appearance of these five dishes alone, they are quite good; at least none of them are burnt or charred.

Chen Feng first tasted the pork rib and winter melon soup and was surprised to find that it tasted alright, with a good balance of saltiness, but a little too sweet, obviously because too much sugar had been added. However, as someone from Lushi or Shanghai, this level of sweetness was still acceptable.

"How does it taste?" Zhao Zixuan looked at Chen Feng with anticipation, her eyes filled with nervousness and excitement.

"Not bad," Chen Feng commented honestly.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Zixuan's face immediately lit up with a happy smile, and she quickly urged, "Then let's try some other dishes."

Chen Feng then picked up his chopsticks and tasted the other four dishes in turn. Under Zhao Zixuan's expectant gaze, he gave a straightforward, "straight man" answer: "The braised crucian carp was just so-so; the fishy smell wasn't completely removed. The stir-fried chicken with wood ear mushrooms was quite good, though; I really liked it. The water spinach was a bit too salty. The broccoli was probably too old; it didn't taste very good."

Zhao Zixuan's smile vanished instantly. She didn't want to be angry, but she couldn't help complaining, "Have you always been this clueless? Can't you say something nice to make me happy? This is the first time in my life I've cooked for a guy. Can't you give me some compliments?"

Chen Feng smiled and explained, "Didn't I just praise you? The winter melon soup and the stir-fried chicken with wood ear mushrooms you made were delicious. I really liked them. It's normal that the other dishes weren't done well. On the one hand, the ingredients might not have been very good, and on the other hand, you might not have enough experience. Learn from this experience, and you'll definitely do better next time."

"You call this praising someone?" Zhao Zixuan rolled her eyes and said helplessly, "Anyway, after your evaluation, I don't want to cook anymore."

Chen Feng thought to himself, "It's better if you don't cook." To be honest, he didn't really like any of the dishes.

Since he became wealthy, his demands for food have increased, and ordinary home-cooked dishes can no longer satisfy his taste.

"I'm just telling the truth, don't take it too seriously. It's better if you don't cook anymore. A beautiful woman like you would suffer if you cooked every day and were constantly surrounded by cooking fumes. You're not short of money, you can just hire a housekeeper who can cook."

"Okay, with you saying that, once I get to Xiuzhou, you can help me find a nanny."

"No problem, I'll definitely find you a suitable one when the time comes."

"That's pretty much it."

"Eat quickly."

Although the dishes Zhao Zixuan made weren't particularly delicious, Chen Feng still ate three bowls of rice and almost finished most of the dishes on the table.

His actions deeply moved Zhao Zixuan.

Because she had tasted these dishes herself, especially the braised crucian carp, which had an extremely strong fishy smell, she almost vomited after just one bite of the fish and never touched it again.

However, Chen Feng ate almost the entire crucian carp.

This secretly delighted Zhao Zixuan, who felt that Chen Feng knew the food wasn't good but still ate it all cleanly; this gesture was truly a sign of love.

After the two finished their meal, Zhao Zixuan quickly cleared the table. Luckily, they had a dishwasher, so she didn't have to wash the dishes herself, saving her a lot of trouble.

After tidying up, the two sat together in the living room watching TV, chatting and laughing.

Around 9 p.m., Zhao Zixuan suddenly received a call from her former best friend, Gong Huize.

At first, Zhao Zixuan didn't want to answer, so she let the call hang up automatically.

In the past, if she didn't call back, the other party would understand her meaning and wouldn't call again.

But this time was different. Just five or six minutes later, Gong Huize called again.

Zhao Zixuan frowned, hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to answer the call.

"Sophia, you finally answered the phone. Is your male classmate with you?"

"Why are you asking this?" Zhao Zixuan asked impatiently.

Gong Huize said with a smile, "It's like this, Wenhe and I are planning to go to Xiuzhou. Isn't your male classmate in Xiuzhou? I wanted to ask him when he's going back so we can go with him, make friends with him, and have fun together."

Zhao Zixuan frowned and said, "I don't think I told you that my classmate is in Xiuzhou, did I?"

Gong Huize chuckled and said, "Wen Zhiming told me. I happened to run into him today, and we started talking about you, and then we talked about your classmate. He knows a lot about your classmate, and your classmate is really amazing. He started a film and television company from scratch and produced hit dramas like 'Qing Yu An,' 'Fei Hua,' and 'Can Yue Ming.' He's really incredible. So, I really want to be friends with him."

"My classmate doesn't like making friends with just anyone. I think we should just forget about it."

Zhao Zixuan's direct refusal did indeed sound rather impolite.

Although Gong Huize was a little angry, she still smiled and said, "Sophia, if I'm not mistaken, he should be your boyfriend. We used to be best friends, after all. It's not too much to ask me to meet your boyfriend and become friends with him, is it?"

At this point, Zhao Zixuan had completely lost her patience and asked in an icy tone, "What exactly do you want?" (End of Chapter)
