After the divorce, I started to transfer

Apart from Wu Mengting, Yang Ziying, Zhao Zixuan, and Tang Xinyi, the rest of the group members include Sun Xiaorui, Guo Mengyao, Jin Xinyan, Lin Yujiao, Yu Xiaohui, Hong Xiaodan, Liu Ying, and even his ex-wife Shen Lin.

Chen Feng had given this matter considerable thought before deciding not to add Wu Mengting and the other three to the group.

First, there's Wu Mengting. Although she knows Chen Feng has many women outside, and she knows most of them, considering Wu Mengting's position as the "official wife," she mainly has to consider her face, so she can't bring her in.

As for Yang Ziying, she's a big star. Her relationship with Chen Feng is currently kept secret; they're choosing to keep it as private as possible. Adding her to the group would be tantamount to making it public.

Tang Xinyi is in the same boat; she was also a celebrity before. Currently, most people are unaware of her relationship with Chen Feng, and Chen Feng doesn't want to make it public. Moreover, Tang Xinyi is going to help him promote his free children's nutritious lunch program, and Chen Feng doesn't want to create unnecessary complications by publicly revealing their relationship in the group chat.

As for Zhao Zixuan, considering her special family background and her particularly proud personality, Chen Feng naturally treated her differently and did not add her to the group.

So having too many women is exhausting; you have to consider their different personalities and also take care of their pride.

Even though Chen Feng has created a group chat, which saves him a lot of trouble, dealing with Wu Mengting's four women is still a time-consuming and energy-draining task.

In fact, apart from Chen Feng and Shen Lin, the rest of the group members were also members of the "Sisterhood Alliance Group" led by Guo Mengyao.

Of course, Chen Feng was unaware of this. This was one of the reasons why Guo Mengyao and the other women wanted to complain. They really wanted to tell Chen Feng that they didn't need to create this special group; they could just add Chen Feng and Shen Lin to the existing girls' group.

However, since Chen Feng personally created the group and added them, they wouldn't be foolish enough to leave. At least it's a platform and channel for them to communicate with Chen Feng and others.

Jin Xinyan was the first to chime in the group. She was one of the two most active members of the group, the other being Liu Ying.

Jin Xinyan: [The group admin is awesome! With this group, we can all chat happily together from now on.]

Jin Xinyan's words, which were somewhat insincere and flattering, made the other women feel a bit contemptuous.

Liu Ying was the second to send a voice message saying, "[Yes, yes, with this group, we can all chat together. Before, it wasn't very convenient to chat together.]"

Her words sounded somewhat insincere, prompting a wave of internal criticism from the other women, including Jin Xinyan. In their usual group chat, she and Jin Xinyan were the two who chatted the most enthusiastically.

Hong Xiaodan was particularly concerned about when Chen Feng would return from his trip abroad, so she directly messaged the group chat asking: "Do you guys know when Brother Feng will be back?"

Guo Mengyao and Sun Xiaorui had both asked this question before, and Chen Feng had already answered it. It's just that they were contacting each other privately at the time, and the other women didn't know.

When the other women asked Chen Feng questions, he didn't answer. In reality, he was too lazy to answer. After all, answering the same question a dozen times would be unbearable for anyone.

Sun Xiaorui was quite understanding in this regard and immediately helped Chen Feng answer in the group chat: "He said it would probably take five or six days, but it could also be ten days to half a month. He will finish his business there as soon as possible and come back."

Hong Xiaodan: [I hope he comes back soon; after all, it's not safe for him abroad.]

Lin Yujiao, unusually, chimed in, saying, "Yes, it's not safe abroad. There was a school shooting not long ago; it was quite frightening."

Liu Ying then typed: "Do you all know why Chen Feng went to America this time?"

Hong Xiaodan then added, "He said it was because of that charity foundation. Didn't he tell you?"

Liu Ying didn't answer her question, but instead continued asking the other women: "Do you all know about this?"

Kim Shin-yeon: [Yes, I know.]

Lin Yujiao: [I know too.]

Guo Mengyao: [+1]

Yu Xiaohui: [I just found out. He had only told me before that he was going abroad, but I didn't ask for the specific reason.]

Upon seeing this, Liu Ying directly tagged Shen Lin: 【Did you know about this too?】

Actually, Guo Mengyao and the others had already noticed Shen Lin's sudden appearance in the group chat, and they all knew that she was Chen Feng's ex-wife. Liu Ying's sudden move was undoubtedly somewhat of a provocation to Shen Lin. Therefore, everyone was quite looking forward to Shen Lin's reaction.

Chen Feng had considered not adding Shen Lin to the group, but after thinking it over, he decided to add her anyway.

The reason is quite simple: Chen Feng is still somewhat wary of her. After all, she is his ex-wife. Although she has repeatedly assured him that she has no intention of remarrying Chen Feng, who knows what the future holds? Especially considering that she might have different ideas after giving birth, it's hard to guarantee that she won't have other thoughts.

Therefore, although Chen Feng still felt a little guilty towards her, he finally made up his mind to add her to the group. His purpose was to make her face reality and completely extinguish any possibility of her wanting to remarry him.

When Shen Lin was first pulled into the group by Chen Feng, she was pleasantly surprised to see that the group was called "A Loving Family". She thought that the group was Chen Feng's family group, and that everyone in the group was Chen Feng's family or at least relatives.

When she clicked in and checked the group members, she was immediately met with a cold shower. Chen Feng's parents weren't in the group, and every member was female. How could she not understand what was going on?

Not long after, the group was renamed "A Men's Group." She felt even more uncertain. From then on, she silently observed the group, not participating in the discussions. It was clear that the other women in the group knew each other quite well, while she was a complete outsider. This made her feel somewhat uncomfortable.

Now that Liu Ying had directly tagged her and asked such a question, she, being a person with a temper, felt her anger rise.

Shen Lin: [Of course I know, he told me about it a long time ago. I also know about this charitable foundation. He made a lot of money over there, so he set up this charitable foundation to avoid taxes. I'm sure you all know about this, right?]

Jin Xinyan followed immediately, asking, "Who are you? We don't think we've ever met you before."

She was asking a question she already knew the answer to. Others might not know who Shen Lin was, but Jin Xinyan had secretly investigated Shen Lin and knew everything about her WeChat.

Shen Lin, unsuspecting, assumed they genuinely didn't recognize her. Without hesitation, she quickly typed in response: "My name is Shen Lin, and I'm Chen Feng's ex-wife."

Although everyone in the group had a strong suspicion that this was Shen Lin, the confirmation sent a jolt through them, and the group fell silent.

Seeing that no one in the group chat had suddenly sent any messages, Shen Lin felt a surge of smug satisfaction. No matter how many women Chen Feng had, he had only ever married one: her. Moreover, she was now pregnant with Chen Feng's child, so she felt quite confident. At least when facing these "seductive and shameless" women in the group, she was the most authentic one.

Shen Lin: [I don't know why Chen Feng added me to this group. But since he's added me, I won't leave. Unless Chen Feng kicks me out himself.]

In the group, even Jin Xinyan, who was usually quite outspoken, didn't dare to say much now. Ultimately, she was still somewhat afraid of displeasing Chen Feng. After all, this was Chen Feng's group, and he was in it. If she said anything too extreme, it would definitely leave a bad impression on him. She was still in her probationary period.

Liu Ying, relying on her beloved daughter, felt quite confident. Although she knew that clashing with or provoking Shen Lin might displease Chen Feng, she couldn't help herself. Ultimately, she was still quite bothered by and deeply resentful of Shen Lin, Chen Feng's ex-wife. So, after a brief silence, Liu Ying responded.

Liu Ying: [Chen Feng added you to this group, probably because he's treating you the same as us.]

That's the truth, but sometimes the truth can be very hurtful. Actually, Shen Lin had vaguely guessed this, but she just didn't want to admit it.

No matter how special her position was in Chen Feng's heart, she was still just his ex-wife. There was no way Chen Feng would remarry her. And she had only managed to get Chen Feng to reluctantly reconcile with her after a great deal of effort.

Having known Chen Feng for so long, she knew his temperament; once divorced, it was divorced. She had tried to remarry him, but failed three times, which meant it was almost impossible. Finally, only after she promised not to remarry Chen Feng did he reluctantly agree to get back together with her. Later, feeling sorry for her, he reluctantly agreed to give her a child.

Ultimately, Chen Feng's decision to reconcile with her was driven by pity and sympathy, or perhaps a sense of obligation, rather than genuine affection.

The real reason he specifically invited her to this group might be, as Liu Ying just said, that Chen Feng treated her the same as all these women and didn't give her, his ex-wife, any special treatment.

Shen Lin couldn't refute Liu Ying's words for a moment, and felt a little upset.

Seeing that Shen Lin didn't reply, Liu Ying secretly felt smug. Undoubtedly, she had hit the nail on the head regarding Chen Feng's thoughts and struck at Shen Lin's weak spot. An ex-wife is an ex-wife; even if they reconciled, Chen Feng only treated her like any other woman, without any special treatment.

On the contrary, Wu Mengting, who is now living with Chen Feng, is treated differently by Chen Feng and has not been added to this group.

However, Shen Lin has a strong ability to adjust her mindset. In just over ten seconds, she recovered and quickly typed a response.

Shen Lin: [Chen Feng probably wanted me to get to know you all. He'd mentioned you to me a long time ago, and I'd really like to meet you all, so he granted my wish this time.]

Her words made the other women in the group very unhappy. Her tone and manner made it seem like she was still Chen Feng's wife.

Liu Ying was still the first to comment: "We already knew he was divorced and had you as an ex-wife. We just didn't expect him to add you to the group this time; it's really rare, considering many divorced couples never speak to each other again."

Divorce from Chen Feng was undoubtedly the deepest pain Shen Lin had ever experienced, and the worst decision she had ever made. Shen Lin certainly didn't want to talk about it, nor did she want anyone else to. Liu Ying's deliberate mention of it was like rubbing salt into her wounds.

Shen Lin was naturally very angry and immediately typed a reply: "After all, I lived with Chen Feng for seven or eight years. Even after the divorce, we're still family. It's different."

These words disgusted Liu Ying and several other women.

Liu Ying again: [Divorce is divorce, how can you still call them family? If Chen Feng still considered you family, he would have remarried you long ago, right?]

These words struck a nerve with Shen Lin, leaving her both angry and speechless.

Seeing this, Liu Ying typed rapidly with two fingers, wanting to press her advantage. But just as she was about to send the message, a notification popped up: the entire group had been muted by the group owner.

Then, Chen Feng sent a message: "From now on, this group will be muted for all members unless absolutely necessary. It will only be used for me to post announcements and messages. Please discuss anything privately. Or you can create your own group."

He had just gone to the restroom and replied to inquiries from Yang Ziying, Zhao Zixuan, and Wu Mengting. So much had happened in just a few minutes.

The women were still arguing, and seeing Liu Ying and Shen Lin arguing made him, as a man, uncomfortable, so he immediately muted them all. To prevent them from arguing any further, he told them to go argue in another group; out of his sight, out of mind.

The women in the group were speechless for a while when they saw Chen Feng use this "Great Sealing Technique". Liu Ying was very unhappy and sent Chen Feng a private voice message.

Liu Ying: [If you don't want us to chat in this group, then why did you create it?]

Chen Feng frowned and replied: "Didn't I just say? This is to make it easier to send you notifications later. If you want to talk to them, you can just create a group chat and add them to it."

Liu Ying was speechless, and could only send him a disgruntled emoji. Chen Feng, of course, ignored her.

After finishing this matter, Chen Feng was too lazy to worry about his group anymore, since everyone was muted anyway.

Then, Chen Feng returned the messages to the people who had called him earlier, including Bill Hicks and Brinna's father, Frank.

He went upstairs to his room and began packing his luggage, taking all the necessary items, especially his identification documents.

Actually, you don't need much; a travel bag that you can take on the plane is enough.

After settling his luggage, Chen Feng drove off to meet Yang Ziying.

Pregnant women have priority, and since she lives nearby, she was naturally the first person he wanted to visit.

Yang Ziying is in a good mood and her emotions have remained calm. After all, Chen Feng has considered everything for her, including hiring a chef to cook for her and a female bodyguard to protect her safety.

In addition, her former agent, Hao Xiaolian, has switched jobs and joined Fengmang Film & Television, and now lives in her house. It's noticeably more lively than before.

Next, Chen Feng's two bodyguards will accompany him to America. The chef they specially hired to cook for them will need to be supervised by someone else. This task can be handed over to Yan Susu, who is currently doing nothing with Yang Ziying every day.

When I told Yan Susu about it, she happily agreed, and finally I had something to do.

After staying with Yang Ziying for about an hour, Chen Feng drove to the postpartum care center to see Shen Lin.

After all, he was going abroad for at least five or six days, and she was heavily pregnant. She had argued with Liu Ying in the group chat before, so she definitely needed to be comforted.

As expected, after meeting, Shen Lin asked somewhat emotionally, "Why did you add me to that group?"

Chen Feng said, "I did this so that it would be easier to send messages to you all at once. For example, it would be too troublesome for me to notify you one by one about my trip abroad."

Shen Lin asked somewhat seriously, "Then why isn't Wu Mengting in this group?"

Chen Feng frowned slightly and said, "She doesn't get along well with the other girls in the group. I was afraid she'd start arguing with them in the group. Who knew you'd be the same way? If you don't want to, you can just leave the group."

Shen Lin was still angry, of course, but Chen Feng's reason was somewhat plausible, and she didn't want to really get emotional with him, so she stopped there and didn't pursue the matter further. (End of Chapter)
