Ryan and Chen Feng sat opposite each other, while Zhong Lei sat next to Chen Feng, pretending to cut her nails, but actually she was upset and on guard.
Ryan was oblivious to the subtle atmosphere in the room, and only said again earnestly: "Mr. Chen, I have said thank you many times along the way."
"No, no. We are on our own." Chen Feng waved his hand.
"Yeah." Ryan smiled, and he liked Chen Feng more and more. "Mr. Roller's family gave you two million dollars to express their gratitude. I'm just a researcher, and I haven't saved much money in these years."
Chen Feng shook his head, "No need, I'm not short of money."
"I think so too." Ryan nodded, "So I won't talk to you about money."
Zhong Lei next to him snorted, "Roller gave so much just to save a life, and you are still unharmed, how can you be so embarrassed?"
She has a lot of unspoken lines.
Ryan was a little embarrassed.
Fortunately, Chen Feng saved him, "Zhong Lei, what nonsense are you talking about? Lai En and I hit it off right away, how can we talk about money? How vulgar? If it was really just for money, would I have to fight so hard?"
Zhong Lei rolled her eyes and thought to herself.
Yes, yes, we all know that you are not short of money.
If you are not doing it for money, then are you doing it for him?
"Humph!"
She was silent.
I don't know how much Lai En understood. He pondered and said, "Anyway, I will never forget your kindness. To use a Chinese proverb, from now on, if you have any orders, I will do my best for you!"
This sentence is very meaningful.
Zhong Lei was about to say that your face was too beautiful and it didn't sound sincere.
Unexpectedly, Chen Feng clapped his hands, "Good brother! I'll remember what you said!"
Ryan nodded heavily, then stood up and said goodbye.
As an eyewitness to the incident and the introducer of a major Sino-US cooperation project, Ryan had to give a complete explanation to all parties.
So the dinner and chat scheduled tonight can only be postponed to another day.
Fortunately, the main responsible persons in all aspects of the project are alive, so if Ryan continues to push forward, the cooperation can continue.
Ryan left, but Zhong Lei did not leave.
The atmosphere in the room gradually became a little strange.
A bit of silence, a bit of embarrassment and thinking, as if something was brewing.
Zhong Lei clasped her hands together, and her fingertips kept rubbing the back of her hands.
Chen Feng said, "Let's take a rest first, and then we'll go to Beverly for dinner. We've already given you the money, so we can't just waste it."
He stood up and made a move to go to the bedroom.
Zhong Lei called him from behind, "Wait a minute."
"What is it?"
"You don't really have that kind of feeling towards that Ryan, do you?" She finally couldn't help but asked.
While she was talking, she clenched her fists and touched her index fingers together.
Chen Feng's eyes widened and he opened his mouth slightly, "What?"
He understood.
He didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Oh my God, what are you thinking about? Haven't I explained it all? Why are you still going on and on?"
Zhong Lei: "You can't blame me. Who made you act so... that."
Chen Feng sat down on the sofa again, took out his mobile phone, and searched for Ryan's personal information.
"Read it for yourself, and you will understand why I value him so much."
Five minutes later, Zhong Lei put down her phone.
Her face changed several times, "I am ignorant. Such a scientist is worthy of admiration. You can't judge a person by his appearance. He is only 29 years old!"
Chen Feng nodded, "Yes, if he died like this, it would be such a pity. So I went to save him at all costs. Just like when I saved you and Meng Wanyue. My motive is actually the same. He is very good, but you are not worse. Do you understand?"
Zhong Lei already knew his expectations of her. After waiting for a while, he just nodded and said, "But why do you know that he will definitely get into trouble?"
Chen Feng shook his head again, "Not certain, just possible. In this weather, it's just possible. Just like when I saved you, my right eyelid kept twitching, so I decided to take action. If I guessed wrong, I would only lose one day. By the way, this business is so profitable, the cost is not as good as my previous carjacking and reverse driving."
"Okay." Zhong Lei looked at Chen Feng with a gleam in her eyes.
Once again, I got to know him more deeply.
He has an unspeakable great feeling in his heart.
His character seems to be ordinary, but he has great ideals in his heart that are difficult for ordinary people to understand, and he has the ability to put them into practice and really do it.
How lucky I am to know such a man.
What I pursue is music.
His pursuits and ideals are so great that just thinking about them can make people feel excited and admire him.
If someone else understood Chen Feng, they would think he was ridiculous and arrogant.
But Zhong Lei would not, because in a sense, she herself was also pursuing that realm.
She could resonate with Chen Feng.
"Chen Feng, I like you."
She spoke.
There was no hesitation.
She was just like that.
After a brief shock, Chen Feng calmed down.
He did not escape, but nodded, "I know."
"Uh..."
Zhong Lei was caught off guard.
She didn't expect Chen Feng to answer so bluntly that she didn't know how to respond for a moment.
"Besides, I like you very much. But as you once said to me, having feelings doesn't mean we have to become lovers. I am very satisfied with the way we are getting along now. I feel very comfortable and relaxed. I believe you feel the same way, right?"
Zhong Lei thought for about twenty seconds, then chuckled and said, "That's right."
"So." Chen Feng patted her shoulder, "Whether you confess or not, nothing can be changed. After all, we still have a lot to do. What will happen next, let time tell. You may not believe it, but I have a very absurd idea. If we don't become lovers, then we will never become enemies."
Zhong Lei shook her head, "I don't agree with you on this point."
"Okay, you have your opinion, and I won't argue with you. But now I think that taking our relationship to the next level may harm your creative ability. But I can't guarantee that this idea will not change in the future. I can only say that we will wait and see, and time will give us the answer."
Zhong Lei: "Yeah. But I don't think this will harm my creative ability."
Chen Feng: "..."
He ran away. He
slammed the door.
He covered his heart.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The violent beating of his heart was like Aunt Xue knocking on the door.
He leaned against the door and slowly slid to the ground.
It's hard to be a saint.
What's more, Zhong Lei is so beautiful, so talented, and her personality is so...
Well, sometimes she is also quite violent, but after getting to know her, you will find that she is just simple and heartless.
Her previous indifference was just the protective color she wore.
