After the divorce, I started to transfer

Alicia stormed up to the second floor and stood in front of Chen Feng's door. She took a few deep breaths to calm herself before knocking.

After hearing Chen Feng say "Come in" from inside, Alicia turned the doorknob and went in.

At this moment, Chen Feng was packing his luggage. He didn't have much to take, because he didn't have many clothes and personal belongings here, and he didn't need to take them all back. So, he only needed to fill a small suitcase, the kind that could be taken directly onto the plane.

Just after Alicia came in, Chen Feng had almost finished packing his luggage.

He saw Alicia walk in with a slightly sullen face. Although he felt a little annoyed, he still asked with concern, "What's wrong? You look unhappy."

Alicia wisely refrained from telling Chen Feng about Molly. Instead, she said with a slightly sad expression, "I just can't bear to part with you so soon. I've only stayed here for two days, and you're leaving soon. We won't see each other again for more than a month. Also, you can't come to my graduation ceremony tomorrow. After all, I only have one high school graduation ceremony. If you don't attend, there won't be another chance. That's a great regret for me."

Chen Feng is the kind of person who responds better to gentle persuasion than force. Seeing her genuine and sorrowful expression, he couldn't help but soften his heart.

It's all because of his damned charm that this girl in front of him has fallen in love with him.

"Alright, there's no need for that." Chen Feng stepped forward and gently patted her head, smiling as he said, "Didn't you just say it was only a month? A month isn't a long time, and we'll be able to see each other again by then. Also, as for the graduation ceremony, I won't have the chance to attend this time, but I'll try my best to attend your university graduation ceremony next time."

Alicia quite enjoyed Chen Feng's affectionate gesture of patting her head, and her heart raced and her face flushed. Her mood immediately improved, and she said with slightly narrowed eyes, "Then I'll take it as a promise that you'll attend my university graduation ceremony in the future. I'll remember it, and you shouldn't forget it either."

Chen Feng thought to himself, "I didn't say I absolutely had to attend; I said I'd try." But right now, he couldn't really defend himself, or it would seem insincere. Besides, it would be four years before she graduated from university. Who knows what will happen in four years?

Chen Feng nodded and said, "Just let me know when the time comes. If I can make it, I will definitely come and participate."

Alicia said with a sly smile, "I'll definitely remember it, and I'll let you know when the time comes. You must come too."

Chen Feng could only nod again, then changed the subject, saying, "I've already messaged Tom (Zhang Zhiqiang), he'll have someone come pick you up in an hour. Did you bring your luggage the day before yesterday? You can go pack now, so you don't forget anything."

Alicia said, "There's still an hour left, no rush, I want to talk to you."

Chen Feng shrugged, letting her have her way. But he didn't intend to stand in front of her again, and went back to packing his things.

"If I go to Xiuzhou, can I stay at your house?" Alicia asked.

Without hesitation, Chen Feng replied, "It's highly unlikely, because my girlfriend isn't very welcoming to people staying at her home. Besides, the villa I live in in Xiuzhou isn't very big, and it doesn't have many rooms. If your whole family comes, there won't be enough room at my house, so it's better to just stay at a hotel."

Alicia was naturally very dissatisfied with this answer. After all, when Chen Feng came to visit her family, her whole family had given him a warm welcome and even let him stay overnight.

As a result, when they went to visit Chen Feng's home next, they were not treated the same way. This was clearly unfair.

But she couldn't accuse Chen Feng of anything because of this, since the two reasons Chen Feng gave seemed quite valid.

"It seems you respect your girlfriend a lot, which makes me even more curious about her. You must introduce her to me sometime; I really want to get to know her properly," Alicia could only say.

“When you and your family come over, I’ll definitely invite you to my home. There should be a chance for you to get to know her,” Chen Feng replied casually.

Alicia said, feigning happiness, "That's great."

Chen Feng ignored her and continued packing his luggage. Actually, if he were fast, he could have finished packing in a minute or two. He deliberately slowed down, rummaging through his drawers and cabinets for a few minutes before pretending that he had finished packing.

Alicia hadn't said a word for the past few minutes, just watched quietly without leaving, which left Chen Feng feeling helpless.

After he finished packing, she asked again, "How did you and Grace suddenly get together? I don't think she's very pretty, just a little bit better looking. Besides, I think she's very boring. Her grades are actually terrible; she barely graduated from university. Her education is mostly fluff, and she's not very bright. In short, she's not a very smart woman."

Chen Feng certainly couldn't say that he was already in a bind and had no choice but to act. He could only say, "She's alright looking, and she has a pretty good figure too. Also, my relationship with her is purely platonic, not what you're thinking."

When Alicia heard what Chen Feng said, she understood what he meant, and her mood suddenly improved a bit.

“I don’t think you’re that superficial. Women like Grace are just pretty, all show and no substance. If you actually like a woman like that, I’ll think you have no class.”

Chen Feng thought to himself, "Do I need your affirmation?"
He really didn't want to stay alone with this girl any longer, and he didn't want to waste time talking to her about these things, so he said, "Let's go downstairs first. I think lunch is almost ready. After lunch, we can rest for a bit, and your car should be here soon."

After saying that, he led the way towards the door. Alicia pursed her lips, ultimately resisting the urge to pounce on him and hug him from behind. After all, she wasn't an adult yet, and Chen Feng would definitely refuse her. If she acted too eagerly, she might scare Chen Feng away. She could only endure it and wait until she was an adult to decide.

Soon, the two came downstairs one after the other. Indeed, lunch was almost ready. In fact, the two live-in housekeepers had already started preparing lunch. When Chen Feng had Molly inform them earlier, they had already finished. Chen Feng went downstairs and checked the time; it was already past 11:30, roughly lunchtime.

Chen Feng invited everyone to sit down in the main dining room. After a few more minutes, all the dishes for lunch were served, a total of more than a dozen dishes. Among them was a large pot of beef and potato stew that Chen Feng had ordered earlier, which he had specifically asked Mrs. Moses to prepare.

However, Chen Feng's original intention was simply to make stewed beef, but Lady Mersey added potatoes instead. Chen Feng couldn't be too picky about it, since he hadn't given detailed instructions. The taste was quite good, not too sweet. This was something Chen Feng had told Lady Mersey over the past few days not to eat anything too sweet, and she had clearly remembered.

In comparison, Eliza, the live-in nanny, although she had also been instructed to do so, still habitually cooked food that was on the sweeter side. Although this was an American eating habit, and Chen Feng was about to leave, he was too lazy to correct her.

Because Chen Feng was leaving that afternoon, the meal was relatively quiet. The women didn't cause any more trouble or argue; they exchanged a few words occasionally, and the atmosphere was fairly harmonious, just not very lively.

After dinner, Chen Feng talked with Molly and Grace, and they all booked tickets for the same flight, which was scheduled for 3:30 pm today.

Shortly after booking the plane tickets, Chen Feng received a message from Zhang Zhiqiang saying that Hicks' family had sent someone over by car and would arrive in about ten minutes. Chen Feng then told Alicia to pack the luggage she had brought the day before. Alicia could only go upstairs to pack her luggage, feeling rather dejected. As soon as she left, Molly immediately asked Chen Feng, "Have you contacted your friend? The one who helped introduce Grace to the movie role?"

Chen Feng nodded and said, "I've already contacted him. He said he could help introduce me to a supporting role in a movie, but I felt it was inappropriate, so I declined for now. I mainly want to ask Grace what she thinks. If she has a movie she's interested in, I can try to help her get a role."

Molly asked curiously, "What movie did your friend recommend?"

After thinking for a moment, Chen Feng answered truthfully: "Nordheimer is a big-budget film and a biographical movie. But most of the important roles in the film have already been decided. If Grace were to go now, she could only play some minor supporting roles, so I declined."

Chen Feng was telling the truth; he had specifically contacted Mr. Moore beforehand. Chen Feng explained his request: he wanted Mr. Moore to help him secure another important role in a Hollywood film, this time not the lead, but a supporting or third lead role, as long as the screen time was significant.

One can imagine Moore's feelings upon receiving Chen Feng's message. He was a man worth tens of thousands of dollars per second, and it was one thing for Chen Feng to ask for his help, but it was for such trivial favors that would consume his time and energy. Although Moore's feelings were somewhat complicated, he clearly stated that he could help—specifically, with some female characters in *Nordheimer*.

This is a biographical film, and most of the important roles have already been cast. For example, Norma has already been slated to be the lead actress. Moore has a way to get Grace to replace the originally cast second or third lead actress, but Chen Feng doesn't want to do that and directly refuses.

Chen Feng said he would first ask his woman what she thought, or ask her to help him find another Hollywood movie of sufficient quality.

Chen Feng refused mainly because Norma had already been cast as the female lead in the film, and he didn't want to bring another woman into the production, making it seem as if the film was made just for his woman.

Molly didn't react much to Chen Feng's answer, but Grace gasped, covering her mouth with her hands, looking utterly shocked. Seeing everyone's attention on her, she explained somewhat sheepishly, "This movie is a big production this year, primarily funded by Paramount, and directed by the renowned director Noren. Many Hollywood stars are actively vying for various roles in this film, and there were even audition reports not long ago. Does this mean the roles have already been decided?"

It's clear that Grace is interested in this movie, and she would be very happy, even somewhat eager, to land one of the more important female roles.

However, Chen Feng really didn't want her to join this film crew, so he said directly, "Yes, that's what my friend said. Some of the important roles in this movie have already been decided internally, and what's left are just some minor roles. Even though it's a big-budget movie, if you only play a minor role, it won't do you any good. So, it's better to find another movie that can make you a star. Do you have any recommendations? If not, I'll have my friend continue to look. Anyway, I promise you, I can definitely do it."

Although Grace was disappointed, she nodded understandingly and said, "I understand, thank you. It's just that I don't have a particular movie role in mind right now. I need to ask around."

Chen Feng didn't mind and nodded, saying, "Alright, once you've found out, I should be able to help you with any role you've chosen in that movie."

Seeing Chen Feng's confidence, Grace was secretly delighted and nodded happily again: "Thank you, I understand. I will inquire as soon as possible to confirm the movie role."

Molly thought of Emma because of the movie "Nordheimer" and said to Chen Feng, "I seem to remember Emma mentioning this movie before. It seems she also wanted to act in it. She even wanted to contact my sister through my connections and ask my sister to put in a good word for her."

When Chen Feng heard her mention Emma, ​​he didn't seem too guilty and nodded directly, saying, "It's like this, she had already successfully auditioned for the second female lead, but later, through my friend's connections and some exchanges of benefits, I got her the lead role. But I feel that this is supposed to be a male-dominated drama, and I don't know how much screen time she'll have as the lead. I also don't know if she'll be able to shine in the role."

Upon hearing this, Molly looked at him with a puzzled expression: "You helped her get the lead role?"

Chen Feng nodded frankly: "Yes, she asked me for help, and I did her a favor because of our past friendship."

Molly said with a hint of jealousy, "You really care about her."

Grace, standing nearby, was naturally envious when she heard that Emma had become the female lead in the movie. At the same time, she also felt a little hopeful. She wondered if Chen Feng would keep his promise if she also got her hands on a big-budget movie and wanted to be the female lead.

Chen Feng ignored Molly's jealous words and turned to Brina, asking, "After your graduation defense, do you need to get your graduation certificate and degree certificate? How long does that take?"

Brina said, "After I finish my defense and submit my final thesis, I should be able to get my graduation certificate and degree certificate within half a month, after the school's review. I will try my best to speed things up, and maybe I can meet you in Xiuzhou before July. Of course, after I get to Xiuzhou, I will also need to apply for graduate school admission at Donghai University. But I have already consulted them, and my qualifications are fully met, and they should be able to approve my application very quickly."

"That's good. I believe you will pass your defense smoothly. I'll be waiting for you in Xiuzhou."

After they talked for a while, Alicia came downstairs with her luggage bag, but she looked a little listless.

Seeing her like this, if her parents saw her when she got back, they would think that Chen Feng hadn't treated her well. So, Chen Feng waved to her and said, "Alicia, I told you, we can see each other again in a month. Don't look so sad. People might think we've bullied you."

Alicia thought to herself, "Molly and Grace are bullying me." However, she didn't say it aloud, but forced a smile and said, "I'm just a little reluctant to part with you."

Her expression and words made it very clear, revealing the girl's thoughts completely. Chen Feng felt somewhat embarrassed by the strange looks from Brina and the other two women.

Chen Feng walked over and took her luggage bag, smiling as he said, "I'm also a little reluctant to part with you, but how can we reunite without parting? You agree, right? Anyway, when you arrive in Xiuzhou in a month, I'll definitely treat you well and take you on a great trip there. I'll make it up to you then, don't worry."

Hearing Chen Feng say that, Alicia finally cheered up and was full of anticipation. She smiled and said, "Then it's a deal. Don't lie to me. You have to take me on a good trip."

After saying that, she held out her hand to Chen Feng: "Let's pinky swear."

Chen Feng felt a little helpless, but seeing her mood improve, he breathed a sigh of relief. Otherwise, if her parents saw her looking so sullen when she went back, they would definitely think she had suffered some injustice here, which would be bad.

Chen Feng immediately extended his hand, hooking his little finger with hers and then his thumb. This could be considered a fairly intimate contact between the two. Chen Feng didn't feel anything, but Alicia blushed and her heart raced, and she couldn't help but smile.

Chen Feng released his grip. Then, he looked at Alicia with a slightly more focused gaze.

After all, Chen Feng had foreseen the danger she would face after attending her graduation ceremony the next day, and now, before parting ways, he wanted to foresee it again.

As a result, a series of images flashed through his mind, causing his expression to change slightly.

This caused Chen Feng's heart to clench with conflict once again. (End of Chapter)
