Furthermore, Chen Feng has explicitly and implicitly stated so many times that Gao Mei is a "green tea" (a manipulative woman), so why can't Li Xiaogang listen to him?
Is this bastard suffering from selective deafness?!
But the moment Chen Feng saw the look in Li Xiaogang's eyes, he swallowed back the curse that was about to come out of his mouth.
Li Xiaogang's eyes were filled with so much emotion.
There is a fragile sense of self-esteem, a heartache at the high cost of the meal, and even a deep emotional expectation mixed in.
never mind.
Since we're already here, we might as well go all the way and be a good Samaritan.
After all, the reason Li Xiaogang called him in for help was to protect his pitiful self-esteem.
If he were to start cursing, Li Xiaogang would probably never be able to hold his head high in front of Gao Mei again.
"This is my good brother Chen Feng."
Li Xiaogang stood up and introduced, "This beautiful lady is my classmate Li Wanwan."
Faced with Chen Feng's sharp gaze, Gao Mei was clearly a little uneasy, and when she saw the stunningly beautiful Li Wanwan, her expression became even more stiff.
Huang Lina could bewitch Fu Jiahao, Liang Dong, and Brother Shanji, but when she met Li Wanwan, she still felt inferior.
Not to mention Gao Mei, whose figure, appearance, and temperament are far inferior to Huang Lina's.
Just one glance at Li Wanwan and Gao Mei felt a suffocating sensation, as if she couldn't breathe!
"Um... Li Xiaogang, I'm full, I'll be going now..."
Before Li Xiaogang could respond, Gao Mei hurriedly left with three classmates.
Why did they leave?
Li Wanwan blinked her big, bright eyes, her face full of confusion.
If I remember correctly, when she and Chen Feng came in just now, Gao Mei and the other three were happily enjoying their meal.
Moreover, there was still a lot of food left on the table. Were the four of them full by then?
"Perhaps it's because they are more vulnerable."
Chen Feng reached out and ruffled the young rich woman's hair. "They're afraid that if they stay any longer, their confidence will shatter."
"???"
Li Wanwan looked blank, clearly not understanding what Chen Feng meant.
"Old Chen, Li Wanwan, stop chatting and sit down to eat."
Li Xiaogang greeted them with a smile, "It costs 3200 yuan. It would be a waste if we couldn't finish it."
Chen Feng sighed.
3200 yuan!
An eight-person dorm dinner together would cost a maximum of just over 200 yuan, and even when I ate hot pot with my little rich friend, it never cost more than 80 yuan.
Even so, Li Xiaogang, who couldn't afford the meal, still forced a smile.
I have to say, he's a perfect simp!
But Chen Feng knew very well that he had no right to mock Li Xiaogang.
In my past life, I was even more pathetic than Li Xiaogang.
Li Xiaogang only fawns over the girls he fancyes, while he himself has fawned over girls and their families, and has been doing so for many years...
Chen Feng and Li Wanwan had just finished dinner and were definitely not in the mood to eat much, so they watched as Li Xiaogang devoured his food.
"vomit!"
Li Xiaogang burped several times, but he still picked up the red wine and took a big gulp. After resting for a while, he continued eating.
"Old Chen, Li Wanwan, why aren't you eating?"
Seeing that his good friend and "brother's wife" had barely touched their food, Li Xiaogang became somewhat anxious.
"We've already eaten."
Chen Feng shook his head and said, "Don't worry about the money. It's just 3,200 yuan. It's not worth ruining your stomach for such a small amount of money."
Li Xiaogang lowered his head in frustration and remained silent.
However, Chen Feng still didn't let him off the hook, saying, "Not counting the year-end bonus, I will pay you 5,000 yuan every month."
"It's normal to spend half a month's salary on a big meal; it's not like you can't afford it."
"Of course, if you're not satisfied, I can prepay you two months' salary, and you can treat Gao Mei to a few more meals."
Upon hearing this, Li Xiaogang instantly lost his last bit of appetite.
Chen Feng didn't try to persuade him or scold him; instead, he used this subtle approach to stab him in the heart, leaving him feeling extremely frustrated.
"I'm not eating anymore."
Li Xiaogang put down his chopsticks and said, "Let's go back."
"Um."
Chen Feng got up, paid the bill, and drove Li Wanwan and Li Xiaogang back to Chenxi Residence.
"Chen Feng, good night, you should get some rest too."
The quick-witted Li Wanwan replied directly with 214, leaving ample space for her good brothers Chen Feng and Li Xiaogang.
Chen Feng opened the door to room 213 and sat down on the sofa next to Li Xiaogang.
"Old Li, didn't I already pay you your September salary in advance?"
Chen Feng lit a cigarette, took a deep drag, and asked, "There's still some time until October. How come you can't even come up with three thousand yuan?"
Li Xiaogang pursed his lips. "You did give me a salary of 5,000 yuan, but I spent 2,000 yuan on medicine for my mother and gave you back 2,000 yuan for tuition, so I only have 1,000 yuan left."
At this point, Li Xiaogang pulled out six hundred-yuan bills. "Old Chen, this is all I have on me. I'll pay you back the rest next month."
Chen Feng pushed away the money Li Xiaogang offered, saying, "You know I don't need this little bit of money. You should keep it for yourself."
This wasn't Chen Feng showing off to Li Xiaogang, and of course, he had no need to show off to Li Xiaogang.
Now, Li Xiaogang manages Chen Feng's stock trading account, which means he has almost complete control over Chen Feng's entire fortune.
Li Xiaogang probably knows best how much money Chen Feng has.
But Li Xiaogang was also tough; he threw 600 yuan on the sofa, turned his head away, and neither looked at Chen Feng nor said a word.
"Holy crap?"
Seeing this, Chen Feng was stunned. "Are you taking your anger out on me? I already said I wasn't going, but you still invited that green tea girl to dinner. How can you blame me for that?"
"Who's angry with you?"
Li Xiaogang refused to admit it.
His feelings tonight were complicated. At first, he was disappointed that Chen Feng refused to attend the banquet, then he was worried about not being able to pay the bill, then he was moved when Chen Feng, the "firefighter," arrived, and finally, he was overwhelmed by what Chen Feng said.
"I paid for your meal, and you not only don't appreciate it, but you also take it out on me."
Chen Feng handed Li Xiaogang a cigarette. "What's this? A real-life version of Mr. Dongguo and the Wolf?"
"Old Chen, I really can't figure it out."
Li Xiaogang took the cigarette. "I see you and Li Wanwan getting together so easily, but how come I'm 'bruised and battered' when I'm pursuing Gao Mei?"
"First of all, the rich girl and I are just good friends, not lovers."
Chen Feng held up two fingers. "Secondly, there is a fundamental difference between a rich young woman and a beautiful woman."
"Not to mention that the young heiress is already a wealthy heiress who doesn't lack money, even if she comes from an ordinary family, she is not a materialistic girl."
"If she doesn't like you, even if you give her a mountain of gold, it won't make a difference. But if she likes you, even just taking her out for a spicy hot pot meal will make her happy for days."
