Chapter 293: That Wasn't My Girlfriend at the Time

~4 min read 688 words

He Zhangbai chased after her, but he was still a step late. By the time he walked to the elevator entrance, Rong Ci had already taken the elevator downstairs.

On the other side.

Feng Tingshen was chatting with someone when his phone rang.

Glancing at the caller ID, he answered the phone.

A while later, he hung up the phone, and Lin Wu walked towards him: "Whose call? Chatting so happily?"

"A classmate from university. He happens to be in Ducheng on a business trip during this period. We haven't seen each other for a long time, and he wants to invite me to dinner. I happen to have time in a while, so I agreed." After finishing, Feng Tingshen asked: "Want to go together?"

When she met Feng Tingshen, Feng Tingshen had already graduated.

Although she had met several of his university classmates in daily social interactions, the classmates she met before seemed to be just nodding acquaintances with him.

This classmate who was contacting him now seemed to have a closer relationship with Feng Tingshen.

She nodded and said: "Alright."

Feng Tingshen chatted with others for a while longer, and when the time was right, he went to the agreed restaurant with Lin Wu.

This classmate of Feng Tingshen was a Chinese citizen with F-nationality, named Li Ce, and he was quite good-looking.

The other party arrived before them. Seeing them come, he stood up to greet them and then asked Feng Tingshen with a smile in broken Chinese: "Is this... Feng, your girlfriend?" After finishing, he praised directly: "Very beautiful, you are a great match."

Feng Tingshen introduced Lin Wu to the other party, and Li Ce asked gossiping questions about where they met.

Lin Wu smiled: "In Country A, at that time I had just finished class..."

After hearing her finish, Li Ce exclaimed "Wow," "A talented woman. Ting Shen, your taste still hasn't changed. I heard that the girl you liked before also skipped grades to attend university, and she was also a super outstanding girl. I heard at the time that you got married before that girl even graduated from university..."

Lin Wu's smile faded a bit.

Feng Tingshen's did too.

He said: "Li, you misunderstood. That wasn't my girlfriend at the time."

"Not your girlfriend?" Li Ce was a bit puzzled, "Is that so? I only saw that girl once at the time. I happened to have something to do and returned to the country, so I didn't pay too much attention to your affairs. So it was a misunderstanding?"

Feng Tingshen changed the subject and asked: "What do you want to eat?"

"I haven't been to Ducheng for a long time. As a local, you make the decision; I trust you."

Feng Tingshen smiled and didn't say anything more. Li Ce was a social butterfly; after finishing, he looked at Lin Wu and asked her what work she was doing now.

Lin Wu said: "Working on driverless cars."

"Wow, an engineer? That's amazing."

Lin Wu smiled and didn't take the credit, but said realistically: "I can't be considered amazing. This company was started by Ting Shen first, and later..."

She told the whole story.

Generally speaking, if she said this, everyone would usually say that Feng Tingshen was really good to her.

However, Li Ce was a bit different.

He looked at her, and although he didn't say anything, he seemed to feel that she was not as outstanding as he had previously thought. His eyes seemed to look at Feng Tingshen with some disappointment, as if he was questioning his current taste in people, or perhaps he felt that she didn't seem to be a match for Feng Tingshen.

Lin Wu's smile faded a bit.

Li Ce also felt that he had expressed himself too obviously, gave a light cough, and asked: "How is the company now?"

"There was a technological breakthrough some time ago, and the company's value has had a qualitative improvement."

"I see..." Li Ce smiled and said: "Also, with you, Feng, doing a tech company, it's not a difficult thing to improve the company's value."
