After the divorce, I started to transfer

Chen Feng did not lie to Liu Ying. After leaving Bibo Garden, he went to Donghu Villa immediately.

He didn't notify Lin Yujiao beforehand; instead, he came directly into the villa. When he found she wasn't home, he sent her a message saying he had arrived.

Lin Yujiao released a new song some time ago, which achieved some success on online platforms and became a minor hit on short video platforms.

Therefore, her performance fee has risen again to 100,000 for one song and 200,000 for three songs.

This is quick money; Lin Yujiao had earned it once before, and of course she wasn't so high-minded as to refuse it.

So, she had been running around doing commercial performances for the past few days, accompanied by Jin Xinyan, who is now Lin Yujiao's manager and helped her arrange the performances.

However, after making a quick buck, she stopped. One reason was that performance fees had decreased, another was that she wasn't that greedy, and she also considered the risks of performing in certain places.

She has plenty of money to spend now, owning two successful clothing stores and easily earning nearly a million yuan a year, so there's no need for her to work too hard or take risks for money.

So she hasn't been doing any commercial performances for the past two days.

Chen Feng sent the message, and Lin Yujiao returned in less than ten minutes.

"Why did you come here so suddenly? You didn't even tell me beforehand. What if I wasn't in Xiuzhou?"

Lin Yuqiao was naturally delighted to see Chen Feng, her face beaming with smiles.

Chen Feng smiled at her and said, "Didn't you send me a message the day before yesterday saying you went back to Xiuzhou? That's why I came to see you today."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yujiao smiled and said, "I thought you basically never read the messages I send."

"How could I not read them? At most, I just didn't reply. You should know that I get a lot of messages every day. If I replied to them all, I wouldn't be able to do anything else. So, under normal circumstances, unless it's urgent, I basically don't reply. I think I told you about this before."

Lin Yujiao smiled and shook her head: "I don't think you told me. But I understand what you did."

Chen Feng was satisfied with her attitude and nodded, saying, "It's good that you understand. In the future, if you have anything important, just call me directly. If it's not important, send a WeChat message. Although I don't reply often, I will usually take a look."

"Okay, I understand. Would you like some tea? I'll make you some."

"Never mind, I don't want to drink right now. Come here."

Chen Feng waved to her.

Lin Yujiao blushed slightly, but still obediently walked towards Chen Feng.

Chen Feng reached out and grabbed her hand, gently pulling her so that she sat sideways on his lap.

Chen Feng naturally pulled her into his arms, and Lin Yujiao rested her head on his shoulder.

The two felt each other's tenderness and enjoyed a harmonious moment together.

After a while, Chen Feng finally spoke up with concern, "Have your commercial performances been going well lately?"

Lin Yujiao rubbed her face against Chen Feng's shoulder slightly before saying, "It went fairly smoothly, thanks to Xinyan. She made some preparations beforehand, including hiring bodyguards for me and also getting people to make arrangements at the commercial performance venue. So, I didn't encounter any difficulties when I went to the commercial performance. Even if someone offered me extra money to accompany them for drinks and meals, I easily refused. Those people knew we had connections, so they didn't press the issue."

Chen Feng asked with some curiosity, "She was able to ask someone to put in a good word for her? Who was she asking?"

Lin Yujiao said, "I don't know exactly who it is, but there is such a person. This person is very influential. Basically, after I made a call, some local departments cooperated with my performance. They even sent police officers to help maintain order. So, the local businesses that invited me to perform didn't dare to make any excessive demands on me, and they paid the final payment very readily. Of course, there were also some unreasonable and domineering people, and even some people who had bad intentions towards me, but my bodyguards and Xinyan helped me deal with them."

Chen Feng nodded thoughtfully and didn't ask any further questions. Instead, he asked, "How much money did you make from this round of commercial performances? You should have made back the money spent on producing and promoting the songs, right?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Yujiao said with some pride, "Of course. These past few days, I've done about fifty commercial performances, earning a total of about seven million. Although it's a bit tiring, it's really profitable. If it weren't for the fact that commercial performance prices have dropped by at least half now, and I'm also afraid of damaging my reputation, and I also find it troublesome, I could have earned even more."

When Chen Feng heard that she had earned so much, he wasn't too surprised and said with a smile, "So, you're now a female millionaire with a net worth of tens of millions."

Lin Yujiao blushed slightly and said, "What's so great about being a 'rich woman' with tens of millions? A single house here costs tens of millions, even hundreds of millions. Besides, the seven million I earned this time isn't all mine. The biggest part is taxes, about two million, so I only actually earned five million. Then, I have to give Xinyan a 650,000 commission. In addition, there are other expenses, such as the cost of hiring bodyguards and assistants, clothing, makeup, transportation, food and lodging, etc. After deducting all these expenses, I probably only earned a little over three million. If I also deduct the costs of buying songs, producing songs, and marketing and promotion, I probably only earned two million."

The seven million yuan suddenly shrank to two million yuan, which was really... Chen Feng felt a little sorry for her.

"Not bad, not bad!" Chen Feng praised somewhat insincerely. "You can earn so much from just one song, and in just two or three months, that's really remarkable. Most importantly, this isn't even your main job, it's just something you do in your spare time. In this respect, you're even better than those professional singers."

Lin Yujiao blushed at Chen Feng's praise, feeling quite pleased. However, she quickly replied modestly, "I can't compare to those professional singers. My fame is only temporary, it's all hype. Once the hype and marketing wear off, I'll be back to square one. Take performance fees, for example. Now that the hype has died down, not many people are hiring me even at 50,000 yuan a song. After a while, it might be 10,000 or 20,000 yuan a song at most. Established professional singers are much better off; their performance fees are relatively stable."

Chen Feng encouraged him, "Then keep working hard and keep creating new works. One day you will become a popular singer."

Lin Yujiao smiled and said, "I don't aspire to become a popular singer. I just hope to have a true representative work of my own, preferably one that will still be popular years later. When the music is played, everyone will still know this song. That way, I will have no regrets in this life."

Hearing her words, Chen Feng didn't offer any more motivational platitudes. Instead, he stated realistically, "Your wish is quite difficult to fulfill. For a song to be memorable, especially one that will remain popular for many years or even decades, it has to be a true classic. Otherwise, even the works of today's most popular singers may not be widely known in a decade or two."

Lin Yujiao nodded and said, "That's right. In the past few decades, there haven't been many songs in our domestic pop music scene that are truly familiar to the public, especially for the pop music of the last century. I know this is very difficult, but I don't force it. I'm just working towards this goal. If I can achieve this wish, that would be best. If I can't, I'll accept my fate."

Chen Feng appreciated her attitude and gave her a kiss with a smile. He then reached into his pocket and was about to make another move when he heard Jin Xinyan's voice from the courtyard: "Brother, sister, I bought some delicious food for you."

A short while later, Jin Xinyan came in carrying a plastic bag, took out two plastic food containers in front of them, and placed them on the coffee table.

"What is that?" Chen Feng asked, frowning slightly.

"Crispy fish, Master Jiang's crispy fish, it's really famous. I went there and queued for almost half an hour to buy it. You guys should try it, it's really delicious."

As Jin Xinyan spoke, she opened two food boxes. One box contained golden-fried fish pieces, and the other contained golden-fried small fish.

Chen Feng immediately felt a bit hungry; it did look quite delicious.

So, the three of them picked up disposable chopsticks and started eating the crispy fish. The outer skin wasn't thick and melted in their mouths; the fish meat was tender and juicy, and it tasted even better when dipped in the accompanying braising sauce.

"It tastes good, right? I've eaten here before, which is why I queued up. Otherwise, I wouldn't have had the time."

Jin Xinyan said with a hint of pride.

Lin Yujiao smiled and nodded: "It really is delicious, thank you for your hard work."

Jin Xinyan smiled and looked at Chen Feng.

Seeing this, Chen Feng nodded truthfully: "It is quite delicious. However, it's best to eat less fried food."

Jin Xinyan quickly said, "I only eat it occasionally, not often."

Chen Feng ignored her and continued eating, quite quickly.

As a result, the two women combined didn't eat as much as he did alone, which made Jin Xinyan secretly resentful.

After finishing the crispy fish, Chen Feng asked Lin Yujiao to make him some chrysanthemum tea.

Jin Xinyan sat down close to him, rubbing against him so tightly that Chen Feng almost pushed her away, but he restrained himself. "Brother, my parents have mentioned you several times and asked me to bring you home for dinner. They haven't seen you in a long time. When would be a convenient time?"

Jin Xinyan pressed her entire body against him, asking in a coquettish tone.

Chen Feng replied irritably, "Your parents know my current situation, and they also know about my situation with you. Don't they feel awkward if I go over for dinner?"

Jin Xinyan's smile froze for a moment, and she pouted slightly as she said, "No matter what, you saved my dad back then, you're a benefactor to our family. Besides, my parents don't actually object to me continuing to date you. As long as you show a little respect to my parents, I think they'll tacitly approve of me being your mistress."

"Don't talk nonsense," Chen Feng scolded. "I don't need you to be a mistress. Besides, I won't get married in the future, so there won't be any mistresses."

Upon hearing this, Jin Xinyan chuckled and said, "You said it yourself, can you really guarantee you won't get married in the future?"

Chen Feng rolled his eyes at her: "I can't guarantee that."

Jin Xinyan said angrily, "Then what did you just say?"

"When I said I wouldn't get married in the future, that's my honest thought right now. But nobody can predict what the future holds, so I can't give you any guarantees. However, there is one thing I can guarantee."

"Oh, what point?" Jin Xinxin quickly asked.

Chen Feng said with a serious expression, "I promise I will not marry you in the future, and that will never change."

"You...you've gone too far!" Jin Xinyan's face flushed red with anger. She wanted to leave, but she couldn't bear to. She could only glare at him angrily, her eyes full of grievance.

Chen Feng, however, showed no mercy and continued with a serious expression, "I'm telling you the truth, and I don't want to deceive you or waste your youth. You're still young, there's absolutely no need for you to hang yourself on this crooked tree."

"You're deliberately trying to upset me, aren't you?" Jin Xinyan said with a sullen face and a pout. "I know I did something wrong before, and I've already apologized and promised you. You don't need to be so harsh on me anymore, do you?"

Chen Feng shook his head and said, "I really just don't want to waste your youth."

"Okay, okay, stop talking. I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have invited you to my house for dinner. I was wrong."

Jin Xinyan decisively admitted her mistake, leaving Chen Feng speechless.

The reason he said all that was mainly to avoid being clung to by Jin Xinyan. Also, it was partly because she had invited him to her home for dinner.

"What's going on with you all?" Lin Yujiao brought over a cup of freshly brewed chrysanthemum tea.

Jin Xinyan immediately looked aggrieved and said, "Sister, he wants to kick me out again."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yujiao looked at Chen Feng and stood up for Jin Xinyan, saying, "Don't punish her anymore. She made a mistake before, but she received the punishment she deserved and apologized to you. Be magnanimous and don't hold it against her."

Chen Feng didn't argue, but smiled and nodded, saying, "Alright, for your sake, I won't hold it against her."

Lin Yujiao was surprised that her words were so effective. She was stunned for a moment before she realized what she meant and said happily, "That's right. No matter what, Xinyan's heart is truly with you. She doesn't want your money, she just wants you as a person."

Upon hearing this, Chen Feng couldn't help but twitch his lips and said, "It makes me more wary that someone is after me as a person than after my money."

Jin Xinyan was taken aback, then smiled and hugged him tightly, kissing him on the cheek. She then rubbed against him and said, "I only love you for who you are. What's wrong with that? You shouldn't be wary of me, because I would never do anything to hurt you. I will only love you even more."

As Chen Feng savored the fragrance emanating from her and listened to her seemingly emotional words, he was momentarily lost in thought.

Lin Yujiao, standing to the side, said with a smile, "Look, Xinyan is sincere towards you, you should cherish her."

Chen Feng then looked at Lin Yujiao and asked, "And what about you?"

Lin Yujiao paused for a moment, then blushed slightly and said, "Of course I mean it too... sincerely."

Upon hearing this, Chen Feng burst into laughter and waved to her.

Lin Yujiao obediently walked over.

So Chen Feng embraced them both, one on each side.

……

For dinner, Chen Feng and the other two only ate egg noodles, which were cooked by Lin Yujiao.

By the time they finished eating, it was almost 7 p.m., so Chen Feng didn't stay long and left quickly.

Only Lin Yujiao and Jin Xinyan remained in the living room. After looking at each other for a while, Jin Xinyan spoke first, teasingly saying, "Why are you being so proactive and unrestrained today? You startled me, and he was almost scared by you at first too."

Lin Yujiao blushed immediately upon hearing this and retorted coquettishly, "No matter how proactive and unrestrained I am, I'm not as good as you."

Jin Xinyan wasn't angry at all; instead, she said smugly, "That's true. I think it's good to be proactive and unrestrained with the man you like. It can increase the fun and feelings between you. It's good that you learned this from me. Feng Ge enjoys it too, doesn't he? We should make him remember us and be unable to get rid of us."

Lin Yujiao shook her head and said, "Don't be too confident. He doesn't need the two of us."

Jin Xinyan rolled her eyes and said, "Then you shouldn't underestimate yourself. When we combine our skills, it will definitely be more than the sum of its parts, and our appeal to Brother Feng will be multiplied. Even if we can't make him obsessed with us, we can make him reminisce about us often and feel reluctant to part with us. We'll continue next time, and I'll teach you some powerful tricks, like what you did this time..."

Lin Yujiao was already blushing and quickly interrupted, "Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Chen Feng isn't such a shallow person. He wouldn't have fallen for us just because of something like this."

"You're wrong about that. Food and sex are human nature. Most men are animals that think with their lower bodies. Even if Brother Feng is an exception, he is still influenced by male nature. If you want to keep his heart and make him like you, you have to put more effort into these things."

"Alright, alright, let's not talk about this anymore."

Lin Yujiao's thinking was still quite traditional and conservative. Even though she had served Chen Feng with her before, she still couldn't accept Jin Xinyan talking about such things so openly.

Jin Xinyan knew she was shy, so she smiled and said, "Okay, okay, I won't say anything more. But I still think you need to learn some more skills. I'll send you some tutorial videos later, you can watch them and learn. It's always good to have more skills, and learning them will benefit you."

……

Chen Feng sat down in the car, but instead of starting it immediately, he carefully examined his body, especially his lower back.

Surprisingly, the result was quite good; I didn't feel any soreness or fatigue.

His overall mental state seemed pretty much the same as when he arrived; he was quite energetic.

In short, he is currently in a very normal state of health, both physically and mentally.

Compared to before, his current state is clearly somewhat abnormal.

In the past, he would have been physically and mentally exhausted to discuss investment projects worth hundreds of millions of yuan with five women in a row.

But now he's doing fine and doesn't feel any discomfort at all, which shows that his physical condition, especially his recovery ability, has indeed improved.

All of this was because he absorbed the special energy from that jade thumb ring. In just two or three absorptions, his physical attributes improved significantly. (End of Chapter)
