Chapter 50: Ha, men!

Chen Feng was about to leave, but Wu Mengting stopped him, saying, "It's rare that we run into each other here, so let's go together. I already toured this place once yesterday, so I know it better than you do. I can be your guide."

After saying this, she specifically looked at Sun Xiaorui and asked, "Sister Sun, you won't refuse, will you?"

Sun Xiaorui smiled slightly and turned her head toward Chen Feng. "I'll listen to him."

Wu Mengting felt a sudden pang of irritation, and a nameless fire began to flare up in her heart. However, she couldn't lash out, so she could only endure it, turning to Chen Feng with a sweet smile instead. "Brother Feng, is that okay?"

Even out of respect for their shared hometown, it would be difficult for him to refuse, not to mention that the two of them had "been something" for a while before.

The scenes of them touring various attractions in his hometown, Linnan County, with laughter and joy were still vivid in his mind.

"Since you're so enthusiastic, of course I can't refuse."

Chen Feng quickly shifted his mindset. If they wanted to launch a pincer attack, let them. What did a dying man have to fear?

"Haha, then I'll take you guys exploring right now."

This time, Wu Mengting was truly happy, and the smile on her face was much more natural.

"You should tell your friend," Chen Feng reminded her.

Wu Mengting had forgotten again. Hearing this, she turned to Lin Wan and called out, "Wan'er, I'll take them around first. I'll contact you when it's time for lunch."

"Count me in, count me in!"

Lin Wan had actually been watching them the whole time. Upon hearing this, she hurried over, expressing her desire to join.

She had just been livestreaming the trio's "performance" for a while and had immediately received many tips. One wealthy patron had even sent her five Super Rockets, telling her to continue livestreaming the three of them and promising another five if the effect was good.

As a streamer whose usual viewership was mediocre, she certainly didn't want to miss this opportunity to make money and boost her popularity.

"Brother Feng, right? We've met before. It's such a pleasant surprise to reunite with you here. This truly is fate."

Lin Wan approached enthusiastically, proactively shaking hands with Chen Feng and then with Sun Xiaorui, introducing herself.

Her attitude was so eager that Chen Feng and Sun Xiaorui found it somewhat uncomfortable.

"As you can see, I'm a female streamer. I came here specifically to livestream. Would it be convenient for you to show your faces in my stream for a cameo?"

Sun Xiaorui wore a flattering smile; her attitude was completely different from when they first met.

"That might be a bit inconvenient."

Chen Feng had no intention of making a cameo in any livestream.

Wu Mengting glared at Lin Wan at this moment, signaling her not to make things difficult for him.

But Lin Wan seemed not to notice the hint in her eyes. She continued to look at Chen Feng with a beaming smile, her tone pleading, "Brother Feng, please help me out. It's rare to encounter a handsome guy like you and a beauty like Miss Sun. Just a quick appearance in the shot. You can go about your business as usual. I'll treat you all to lunch at noon, how about that?"

"What platform do you stream on?" Sun Xiaorui asked with slight curiosity.

"Douyu."

"Oh, what's your room number?" Sun Xiaorui pulled out her phone immediately.

"584903."

Sun Xiaorui performed a few operations to open the livestream room. After watching for a moment, she flashed a grin at Lin Wan. "So, a wealthy patron is tipping you to livestream us."

Being exposed to her face, Lin Wan couldn't help but feel embarrassed.

Looking at the phone screen, there were indeed many "Douyu viewers" posting comments with schadenfreude, exposing the situation and mocking her.

"We can do the cameo. However, any subsequent tips will be split fifty-fifty. How about it?" Sun Xiaorui asked with a smile.

*How hateful!* Lin Wan felt a surge of anger in her heart.

But for the sake of the wealthy patron's upcoming tips and the livestream's popularity, she nodded and agreed: "Fine. It's a deal."

Only then did Sun Xiaorui look at Chen Feng with satisfaction and say, "Brother Feng, you don't mind, do you? After all, there's money to be made. A wealthy patron just tipped her ten thousand yuan just because they wanted to see us on stream."

"Since you've already agreed, how can I refuse?" Chen Feng gave her a disgruntled look, though he wasn't truly angry.

Sun Xiaorui naturally knew the limits. Knowing Chen Feng wouldn't be angry, she leaned closer to him, pressing half of her body against him, and said coquettishly, "Thank you, Brother Feng. You're the best."

This delicate tone and mannerism made Lin Wan and Wu Mengting feel an immediate sense of discomfort, both of them breaking out in goosebumps.

Wu Mengting said with a hint of emotion, "Let's just head out first. The snow is getting heavier."

Sun Xiaorui smiled and nodded. "Okay! Let's go."

And so, the four of them walked together.

Chen Feng and Sun Xiaorui led the way with their luggage toward their accommodation.

They had already booked their place online on the way here. It was a relatively expensive hotel rather than a guesthouse or a homestay.

Since they weren't short on money, they naturally wanted to stay somewhere good.

Of course, to be fair, the price wasn't excessively high; a duplex suite of about 80 square meters cost about 1,200 yuan per night.

When Wu Mengting and Lin Wan walked into the duplex suite together, they couldn't help but marvel; there was indeed a reason for the high price.

Although their family backgrounds were good and their current monthly incomes were comparable to white-collar workers, for this trip, they were staying in double rooms that cost only about 300 yuan per night.

In that sense, they were somewhere in the middle—not the wealthiest, but not poor either.

However, comparison is the thief of joy. Compared to the duplex suite Chen Feng and Sun Xiaorui had booked, theirs didn't stand a chance.

Lin Wan admitted she was feeling a bit envious and couldn't help but say, "This is a bit too luxurious, isn't it? We're mostly here to sightsee and only come back to sleep at night before getting up early the next morning. Is it really necessary to stay in such a nice place?"

"Yeah. You really know how to spend. I thought you didn't have much money since you just opened a car wash in your hometown. Last time, I even specifically asked you to be my guide to earn some extra cash. You actually had the nerve to take my money."

Wu Mengting was even more envious. Although she had expected this, seeing them sleep together with her own eyes still caused her mental state to fracture slightly.

*Hah, men!*

He said he didn't want to find anyone else, but how long has it been since the divorce? How long has it been since he separated from her? He found someone immediately.

Even with Chen Feng's thick skin, he blushed slightly when she brought up the matter of him taking the guide fee last time.

However, being an experienced hand, he quickly regained his composure and said with a smile, "If I hadn't taken it back then, I was afraid you'd overthink things. You should understand."

Wu Mengting understood, of course, and her face couldn't help but redden slightly.

She had sent him a red envelope the next day only after leaving, which was actually a test. If Chen Feng hadn't accepted it, it would have meant he had feelings for her; if he accepted it, there was a high probability he didn't.

As it turned out, Chen Feng had accepted it that time. Although he had returned some, he still kept some.

This had left her feeling sulky for several days back then.

"Alright, you two. We've finished looking around here. Take us on a tour of the surroundings."

Sun Xiaorui spoke up to interrupt the slight flirtatiousness between Chen Feng and Wu Mengting.

"Okay. Then I'll take you around."

Wu Mengting felt displeased, but the smile remained on her face.

Next, Wu Mengting acted as the guide, leading the two through Beiji Village.

Most of the houses in this village were single-story wooden structures, with some two-story ones, and they were quite spacious.

By the time they finished a full circuit, over an hour had passed.

It was also time for lunch. As the only man in the group, Chen Feng naturally offered to treat everyone.

The three women all agreed, even Lin Wan, who had previously said she would treat them.

Chen Feng, of course, didn't hold it against her.

Although Chen Feng didn't believe that meeting them this time was "fate," encountering two acquaintances at the northernmost tip of the country was, after all, a happy occurrence.

Not to mention, they were both beauties.
