After the divorce, I started to transfer

“I don’t want to bother you. You know you’re a big star, and I’m just an ordinary person. We live in two different worlds. Besides, if your private life were exposed, it wouldn’t be good for you.”

Chen Feng wasn't wrong. He really didn't want to expose his private relationship with this Hollywood star, as it wouldn't be good for Emma or for himself.

Emma was pleased to hear Chen Feng's reason and words, and felt much better. She had previously thought that she wasn't very attractive to Chen Feng, especially since after that incident, Chen Feng not only didn't contact her, but even when she did, he didn't give her much of a positive response, which hurt her pride.

“We’re friends. What’s wrong with friends keeping in touch and even meeting up? Don’t you think so?” Emma smiled and winked at Chen Feng. After all, the two had had close interactions and knew each other, so calling them friends wasn’t an exaggeration. Even if Emma said they were good friends, Chen Feng had to accept it now.

Chen Feng smiled and said, "Alright, since you don't think this will cause any trouble or inconvenience, I'm certainly willing to be friends with you. If I come to Los Angeles again in the future, I'll contact you, and we can meet up and have a meal together. However, I want to make it clear first. If you don't have anything important to say, please try not to contact me. Especially messages; I basically don't reply to them. I apologize for that."

Chen Feng continued, “You seem to have sent me quite a few messages before, but I didn’t reply to any of them. You can ask Brina; many times when she sends me messages, I rarely reply unless it’s something important. You know, I get a lot of messages every day, and if I replied to them all, I wouldn’t have time to do anything else. I’m sure you’ve had that experience too, right?”

Emma immediately looked understanding and nodded, saying, "Of course, I've had that problem before too. Once, my private phone number was probably leaked, and I received several calls in just a few minutes. I was so scared that I immediately turned off my phone and changed my private number. Also, I get hundreds of private messages on my Twitter, Instagram, and other social media platforms every day, and I can't possibly read them all, so I basically don't reply to them."

"I'm glad you understand. So, unless it's something urgent, I generally won't reply to your messages. If it's really urgent, just call me. But since you consider me a friend, I'll contact you when I come to Los Angeles. If you come to our Dragon Country, you can also contact me, and I'll treat you to a meal."

“Okay, thank you,” Emma said happily. “I’ve always wanted to travel to China, but I haven’t had a suitable opportunity. Now that you’ve mentioned it, I’m even more eager to go. I might go during the summer vacation, and you have to keep your word and treat me well.”

"Of course, I keep my word. If you're coming to China during the summer vacation, just give me a call in advance, and I'll treat you well."

"OK, that's great! It's settled then."

Emma was about to say something more when another person walked up beside her. He was a handsome middle-aged man with blond hair and blue eyes, wearing bespoke trousers and a white shirt, with an expensive Patek Philippe watch on his wrist. He had a light stubble on his face, which made him look masculine and handsome.

"Emma, ​​did you run into a friend?" the man asked with a smile, then nodded politely to Chen Feng and Brina.

Upon seeing the man, Emma's expression stiffened for a moment, but she quickly relaxed and introduced them with a smile: "This is my friend Edmund, a producer. These two are Mr. Chen Feng from China. He owns a film and television company in China and is also a friend of Norma's. I met him through Norma's introduction. This is Brina, an undergraduate student at UCLA."

After Emma finished her introduction, Brinna corrected her, "I've already graduated."

Emma laughed and changed her tune, saying, "Okay, he's an outstanding college graduate from a prestigious university."

Edmund politely nodded to Chen Feng and Brina again, saying, "It's a pleasure to meet you both."

Chen Feng nodded in response, "Me too." Brina nodded back to him as well, without saying anything more.

Edmund then suggested, "How about the four of us have dinner together? It's fate that we met. I know Norma too, and since you're Norma's friend, you're my friend as well."

Needless to say, this guy must be a rich young master, otherwise he wouldn't even be qualified to know Norma, let alone be friends with her.

Chen Feng immediately shook his head and refused, saying, "No need, we've already eaten almost all of it, and we have something to do later, so we have to leave after we finish eating."

Edmund said with a hint of regret, "That's a real shame. I felt an instant connection with you when I met you, and I really wanted to get to know you better and become friends."

These foreigners are indeed very direct. Chen Feng's first impression of him was also good; after all, the other man was handsome and very polite. However, there was no mutual admiration or anything like that.

Since they were being so kind, Chen Feng said, "Since you know Norma and are friends with her, just like you said, then we're friends too."

Edmund replied happily, “Alright, my friend. Let’s formally introduce ourselves again. Hello, my name is Edmund Holf, I’m from Chicago, and I currently live in Los Angeles.”

Edmund stepped forward and extended his hand to Chen Feng. Chen Feng, of course, couldn't ignore him, so he immediately stood up, shook hands with him, and said with a smile, "Hello, my name is Chen Feng, from China."

The two shook hands up and down in perfect unison, then separated simultaneously; the entire handshake lasted no more than five seconds. They exchanged a smile, and there was a genuine sense of mutual appreciation between them.

In those brief five seconds, Chen Feng, through his special ability to recall information, also gained some understanding of this young master.

Sure enough, this guy was from a wealthy family; his family was quite powerful in Chicago. Otherwise, he wouldn't be qualified to be friends with a rich heiress like Norma. In essence, he and Norma were the same kind of people.

Furthermore, Chen Feng also saw the scene of this woman and Emma having sex. Clearly, the two are currently dating and can be considered lovers.

Judging from Emma's attitude towards him just now, she clearly seemed to be looking to "relive old memories." This made Chen Feng feel slightly uncomfortable.

Now that Emma has a serious boyfriend, she's still trying to flirt with him. What does she take Chen Feng for? Or rather, how can she do this to Edmund, who's currently dating her?
"This is my business card. You can contact me anytime." Edmund proactively took out a business card and handed it to Chen Feng.

Chen Feng took it and glanced at it. The identity on it was that of the executive director of a certain film company.

Considering Emma is now a Hollywood star, it's perfectly understandable that she would date a producer from a Hollywood film company.

Ultimately, Emma is a high-class socialite, so she probably didn't consider Edmund her real boyfriend; perhaps their relationship was simply a matter of mutual benefit. And a wealthy young man like Edmund would likely never marry a woman like Emma.

“I don’t have a business card. If you want my contact information, you can get it from Emma,” Chen Feng said after accepting the business card.

“Alright, then we won’t disturb you any longer. Please continue your meal. We’ll go sit over there,” Edmund said. “Okay, please go ahead.”

After Chen Feng said that, Emma, ​​though somewhat reluctant, had no choice but to get up and leave with Edmund. They were a little distance from Chen Feng, about ten meters away.

After watching them take their seats, Brina muttered under her breath, "Those two must be on a date, and she actually tried to seduce you just now. How shameless."

Chen Feng stated realistically, "They are dating, but they are probably not officially in a romantic relationship yet."

"That's disrespectful to her date and to you as well. Since she already has a date, she shouldn't be trying to seduce you."

"Where did you see that she was seducing me just now?" Chen Feng asked with a smile.

"She just sat right next to you, practically sitting on your lap. Isn't that seduction? And what she said just now was too obvious."

"Maybe, but don't worry. Now that she's dating Edmund, I definitely won't have anything to do with her anymore. Besides, I have you by my side now, so I don't have time to deal with her."

Brina rolled her eyes at him and added, "Not just me, but that female model too."

Chen Feng smiled and didn't take it seriously, continuing to eat with his head down. Brina didn't say anything more either, and followed suit, continuing to eat with her head down.

A few minutes later, Chen Feng finished eating. Brina had some food left, but she put down her knife and fork, wiped her mouth with a napkin, and said, "I'm full too, I really can't eat anymore, let's go."

Chen Feng nodded and stood up. As the two passed Emma and Edmund's table, he said goodbye, "Enjoy your meal, we'll be going now. We'll keep in touch another time."

Edmund and Emma both stood up from their seats to say goodbye to Chen Feng and Emma. As soon as they left, Edmund said, seemingly casually, "Chen is a very charming man. He must have some extraordinary qualities to be able to become friends with Norma."

Emma thought to herself, "Of course he has something special about him, otherwise how could he make a girl as proud as Norma still remember him so fondly? And how could she herself still remember him so fondly and savor the memory to this day?"

Unfortunately, she also knew that because of Edmund's sudden appearance, it would be difficult for her and Chen Feng to rekindle their romance. Chen Feng had clearly also noticed the relationship between her and Edmund.

"Yes, he's a very charming man. Norma was just lucky she got engaged early, otherwise she might have really dated this Asian man. But his sister Molly, I don't know if you know her, Molly has a very close relationship with Chen Feng, you know what I mean."

Edmund was slightly surprised upon hearing this and asked, "You mean Molly and he are dating now? Then what about the woman next to him just now?"

Emma's lips twitched slightly as she said, "This woman is throwing herself at him, clinging to him relentlessly. In fact, he's probably quite the womanizer. Molly was also proactive; she wanted to be Chen Feng's girlfriend, but Chen Feng seems to look down on her."

“How is that possible?” Edmund said in disbelief. “I know Molly. She’s a very proud person, even more proud than her sister Norma. To be honest, I tried to pursue her myself, but she didn’t like me at all and rejected me very clearly. I was depressed about it for a long time. What is it about this Chen Feng that makes Molly so infatuated with him?”

Emma thought to herself, "His charm is several times greater than yours; you can't compare to him at all."

As a woman who had personally experienced both men, Emma naturally understood the reasons best. On the surface, both Chen Feng and Edmund were gentle and handsome, each with their own unique charm. But in reality, in terms of temperament, Chen Feng possessed a more mysterious aura and gave off a more reliable, stable, and reassuring feeling.

Financially speaking, Edmund is indeed wealthy, but his total assets certainly don't exceed one hundred million US dollars. His main advantage lies in the support of his family. If he were to leave his family, Edmund, while still capable, wouldn't amount to much.

The Chen Feng she knew was a true self-made man, a first-generation entrepreneur. According to information previously revealed by Molly, he established a charitable foundation in the United States, into which Chen Feng personally invested at least $300 million.

Therefore, in terms of personal wealth and external charm, Chen Feng completely overwhelms Edmund in front of him.

As for actual male strength, to be fair, Edmund is quite good, but he still can't compare to Chen Feng at all. Emma, ​​having experienced this firsthand, is naturally the most qualified to speak on this matter.

To put it simply, being intimate with Chen Feng felt like riding a spaceship in heaven, while being with Edmund was more like rowing a boat on a lake. Although both were enjoyable, the feeling of pleasure was completely different, because one was in the sky and the other on the ground.

Of course, Emma couldn't possibly tell Edmund these thoughts directly. She could only shake her head with a puzzled expression and say, "I don't know either. But he must have some extraordinary qualities, otherwise why would these two sisters both favor him so much?"

By the way, you mustn't let Norma and her fiancé know about this. However, as far as I know, her fiancé isn't a good person either; there have been rumors that he has several lovers outside. Norma might not be happy if she marries him.

Edmund nodded, saying with some sympathy, "I've met her fiancé a few times. He's a very eloquent man, but I've also heard about his womanizing ways. Besides, he doesn't really like Norma, and Norma doesn't either, otherwise they wouldn't have waited until this year to get married."

At this point, he shook his head and said, "Norma was forced to marry him only because of her family's interests. It's such a pity. I'm most disgusted by this kind of family marriage. But there's nothing she can do. Born into such a family, she has to make her own contributions and sacrifices for the family's interests."

Emma sighed softly, then stared intently at him and asked, "Will you also obey your family's arrangements and marry a woman you don't like in the future?"

Edmund fell silent for a moment before spreading his hands helplessly and saying, "I don't want to lie, and maybe that's how it is. But I'm not a puppet. If I really don't like it, or even hate it, I definitely won't agree to this marriage."

Although Emma didn't have high hopes of marrying into Edmund's wealthy family, she still felt a little sad hearing his frank words. Hollywood actresses like her rely on their youth; after achieving fame, none of them wouldn't want to marry into a wealthy family, but unfortunately, very few actually succeed.

This is also one of the reasons why she somewhat dislikes Edmund. If she had a better option like Chen Feng, she definitely wouldn't choose Edmund. (End of Chapter)
