Chen Feng didn't know what attracted Lucy to him. He could only guess that it was his outstanding appearance and special temperament from the inside out.
Of course, you have to ask Lucy herself to confirm whether this is the case.
However, Chen Feng felt that they should be inseparable.
Since he became rich, he has become more and more confident and charming. Even if he is low-key, he can attract the coveted eyes of many women.
Well, this is all God's arrangement.
Luck in wealth and love came one after another, and he was fed well, even though he was a little over-nourished.
Chen Feng did not answer Zhou Qianru's doubts, nor did he brag about himself. He quickly ended the conversation with her and went upstairs to meditate.
He didn't come downstairs until almost six o'clock in the evening, when Zhou Qianru's prestige asked him to come downstairs for dinner.
At this time, Lucy had just come back from get off work and came to their place immediately to continue eating.
When she saw Chen Feng, she said excitedly: "Chen, thanks to you this time, otherwise I would not have received the award from the bureau. With this contribution, I think my police rank will be promoted to another level next year."
It seemed that Lucy had made a great contribution to killing the wanted criminal this time. Chen Feng was also happy for her and said, "This is your own luck."
"You brought me this good luck. If you hadn't recognized that guy, I wouldn't have had the chance to make a contribution this time? Chen, I owe you a big favor."
Chen Feng thought for a while and realized that Lucy's meritorious service was really brought about by his good luck, so he was no longer modest and just said: "You saved me before, and none of us owe anything to the other."
Lucy smiled and said: "Anyway, I owe you, and I will definitely find a way to pay you back in the future."
Zhou Qianru on the side couldn't help but interjected and asked: "What are you talking about? What do you owe a favor? What did you save Chen Feng? I don't understand."
Chen Feng thought about it and briefly explained to her: "When we went to buy fitness equipment in the morning, we happened to meet a wanted criminal, and Lucy arrested the wanted criminal."
Zhou Qianru didn't believe it and asked, "Is that just that? You just said she saved you."
Chen Feng had no choice but to add: "The wanted criminal had a gun in his hand. When Lucy caught him, a gunfight broke out. I was almost affected. Fortunately, Lucy subdued the man in time."
"Oh, that's it."
Only then did Zhou Qianru believe it.
Chen Feng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Zhou Qianru was a patient after all, and she would have to live here for a long time for medical treatment. She must not be frightened, which would affect her physical recovery.
Although Lucy didn't understand what the two of them were talking about, she also knew that she accidentally let something slip. She smiled sheepishly at Chen Feng, changed the subject and said, "Chen, otherwise I will eat at your place from now on."
Well, I'm addicted. I can pay for food, how about a thousand dollars a month?"
Lucy was really impressed by Li Zehui's cooking skills. She really wanted to come here to eat every day, but no matter how thick-skinned she was, it would be a bit outrageous to come to their place for free meals every day, so she directly offered to give them food.
fee.
In addition, it is of course also Chen Feng's factor. If you eat with the man you like every day, you will definitely feel happy physically and mentally, and you can also develop feelings along the way.
Of course, Chen Feng didn't want her to come over to eat with her every day, so he said, "We basically eat Chinese food every day here. You may not be used to it. It's okay to come here to eat occasionally."
Lucy agreed when she heard that. If she was asked to eat rice every day, she might not be used to it. After thinking about it, she said: "Then I can come here if I want to eat. I may come here to eat on Wednesday or four days, so the food expenses
You still have to give it, and you have to take it. What do you think of $500 a month? I can take advantage of it."
Zhou Qianru said: "If you must give it, it doesn't need to be 500 US dollars. It's too much, just 100 US dollars."
"Is it so cheap?" Lucy didn't believe it.
"Of course." Zhou Qianru smiled and said, "You can't eat much by yourself. It's very economical for a few of us to eat together. Of course, you are also our friend, so we can't charge you more."
Lucy looked at Chen Feng and asked, "Is this price okay?"
Chen Feng nodded and said: "Of course. Just this price. Originally, it's okay if you don't pay. It's not much for you."
"Okay, thank you, I took advantage." Lucy smiled happily.
She did take advantage. Chinese food was expensive here, not to mention that it was Li Zehui's custom-made private dishes, so the price was even more expensive.
To put it bluntly, she could only eat two meals for a hundred dollars.
Zhou Qianru wanted to make friends with her, so she offered her $100, but Chen Feng simply didn't care, and it was also because she saved him today, so it would be okay if she kept coming to the house to eat.
So, Lucy was very happy to have a delicious meal at Chen Feng's place. After the meal, she chatted with Zhou Qianru for a long time.
She also wanted to talk to Chen Feng, but Chen Feng didn't pay much attention to her. After eating, he watched TV with them for a while, then went upstairs on the pretext of having a video call with someone and didn't come down again.
Lucy couldn't go upstairs to find Chen Feng, so she could only chat with Zhou Qianru downstairs.
She knew that if she wanted to get along with Chen Feng, she needed more patience.
Chen Feng went upstairs and really wanted to have a video call with Sun Xiaorui.
When Chen Feng went abroad this time, she contacted him more diligently than before. She basically sent him WeChat messages every day. Even if he didn't reply often, he still sent some messages every morning, noon and evening.
When it was night on his side or night on her side, and the time difference was just right, she would ask for a video call, and then chat with Chen Feng for a while, or just turn on the video so that she could see and feel each other.
The way she acted, it was obvious that she felt like she had just fallen in love.
Although Chen Feng was a little impatient, thinking of her gentleness and considerateness in the past, he slightly satisfied her request for one video call a day.
After Chen Feng chatted with her for a while, it only took about ten minutes before he hung up the phone on the pretext of going to take a shower.
Chen Feng didn't think that when he was in love with Sun Xiaorui, agreeing to video chat with her every day meant that he had some preference for her, and he wouldn't waste time stupidly by chatting with her all the time.
It rained the next morning, so I put the fitness equipment I just bought to use. I warmed up for a few minutes, then ran five kilometers on the treadmill, then squatted and lifted dumbbells.
After half an hour of exercise, the amount of exercise is greater than simply running a few kilometers outside every day.
However, Chen Feng did not feel tired or physically uncomfortable.
If it weren't for the tumor in his brain, his physical parameters would actually be much better than those of ordinary people.
While Chen Feng was having breakfast, Lucy came to the door and said she wanted to use the gym to exercise. Chen Feng had just promised her yesterday, so of course he agreed.
After breakfast, Chen Feng went to the gym and saw Lucy practicing squats with barbells on her shoulders. The sight of her strong muscles made Chen Feng feel a little bit sour.
However, putting aside his prejudices about skin color and women's muscles, her figure is actually quite impressive, and her body fat percentage is definitely very good.
Many men like her style, which is healthy, strong and fierce enough.
It's a pity that Chen Feng doesn't like it.
"Can you come over and give me some support? I need to add some weight."
After finishing a set of squats, Lucy put down the barbell and greeted Chen Feng.
Chen Feng was caught by her, so he had no choice but to walk over and ask: "How many kilograms did you weigh just now?"
"60 kilograms." Lucy answered.
Although Chen Feng didn't know much about fitness, he was still shocked when he heard that she was practicing squats with a 120-pound barbell.
You must know that when he came here just now, he watched her do at least a dozen squats in a row, and she may have done several more before.
All I can say is that her squat strength is a bit scary.
"Do you weigh 60 kilograms?" Chen Feng asked directly.
"Of course." Lucy said with a smile, "Don't look at me looking a little thin, but I weigh 65 kilograms. So now I want to try squatting and carrying a 65 kilogram barbell."
As Lucy spoke, she added five kilograms to the barbell, and then called to Chen Feng: "Here, help me hold on a little bit."
Chen Feng couldn't help but question: "Can you practice like this? It would be bad if your practice goes wrong."
"Don't worry, nothing will happen. I have been practicing 60kg squats for more than half a year."
Seeing Lucy's confident look, Chen Feng went over to help her.
The two faced each other, Chen Feng helped hold the barbell with both hands, just in case, and then stood up with her, and then squatted, up and down.
Only then did Chen Feng realize that the two of them were a little too close together. He could clearly see and feel Lucy's heavy exhalations. He could even smell the faint smell of sweat on her body. It was really a bit...
ambiguous.
Lucy was obviously aware of it, or it could be said that this was her conspiracy, but she still had a serious look on the surface, and it felt like she was exercising seriously, but the amount of exercise was a bit too heavy, her face was a little red, and her breathing was a little short.
Fortunately, after she did five consecutive exercises with such a heavy barbell, she could no longer do it. She quickly asked Chen Feng for help and took the barbell off her shoulders.
After Lucy took a breath, she said seriously: "65 kilograms is a bit heavy. It seems that there is no need to increase the weight."
Chen Feng had already stood two steps away. Hearing this, he nodded and said: "There is no need to increase the number. It is safer to be lighter. If you feel that the amount of exercise is not enough, you can do one more set."
"Well, you're right."
Lucy went over and took a towel to wipe her sweat, and then suddenly asked: "Are you free tonight? I have two tickets for the opera house. You can go see it with me."
This turn of events was so sudden that Chen Feng couldn't react. After being stunned for a while, he shook his head and said, "I have no interest in opera and I don't understand it, so I won't go."
"It doesn't matter if you don't understand. You will understand after you go and see it a few times. These two tickets were awarded to me by our captain. They are good seats. VIP tickets cost several hundred dollars each. It would be a pity not to go and see them.
.”
"You can find someone else to go with you, why are you looking for me?" Chen Feng said in a puzzled tone, "If you really can't find anyone, you can ask Qianru to go with you."
Lucy couldn't help rolling her eyes and said bluntly: "Don't you see, am I dating you? I want to date you, not anyone else."
Chen Feng shook his head and said, "I made it clear to you before. It's good for us to be friends. Don't think about taking it any further."
"You are really a man who doesn't understand style. I don't want to be your girlfriend, I just want to date you. Do you understand what I mean? Are you refusing even this?" Chen Feng really wanted to tell her the truth, you
not my style.
But considering her identity, the fact that she saved him yesterday, and the fear that she would hate her because of love, he could only move out of Brina again: "Sorry, I already have a date, Brina, you
You know, she will be back in the next two days. I can't date you while dating her. This is disrespectful to both of you."
After hearing what he said, Lucy couldn't help but feel a little discouraged and asked: "Do you like her very much?"
"Of course, she is the only woman I have here in America."
Chen Feng's words were a bit shameless, but they were also true. He wanted to deliberately remind Lucy that he was a romantic and lustful guy.
Unfortunately, Lucy didn't seem to care about this at all, and nodded and said: "Okay, then when she comes back, I will tell her and ask her to allow me to date you. If she agrees, I hope you won't do it again then."
Reject me. Otherwise, I will think you don't respect me."
Chen Feng looked at her speechlessly and said, "Isn't it good for you to do this? Although she is not my girlfriend, she is also a female friend who has a very close relationship with me."
"You also said she is not your girlfriend, isn't that the same as me? I respect her enough by asking for her permission."
"Then what if she doesn't agree?"
Lucy smiled and said, "I think she would agree."
Only then did Chen Feng remember her identity as a police officer, and she did have a way to get Brina to agree.
"Can't you just be friends with me?" Chen Feng shook his head.
"Yes, I just want to be your friend, a very close friend."
Lucy said, reaching over and placing her palms on his chest, with a smile on her lips and raised eyes.
Chen Feng felt like he was being teased and wanted to fight back, but he resisted and turned around and left. At the same time, he said to her: "You'd better go take a shower, your body smells like sweat."
When Lucy heard this, her expression froze. She quickly raised her arm and smelled it. It seemed that it really smelled like sweat. She was immediately embarrassed.
I didn't find it inappropriate to have an affair with someone in the gym before, but now I do.
The smell of sweat on my body is indeed a bit disappointing.
Of course, it depends on the person. Some people just like this kind of smell, but Chen Feng doesn't seem to like it.
Lucy took it for granted.
But is that really the case? Of course not. It's just an excuse.
If it were another woman he liked, Chen Feng wouldn't feel bad even if she was sweating profusely.
This is very realistic.
Lucy had also thought about this possibility, but again, she would definitely not admit that she was not attracted to Chen Feng.
This is about her dignity as a woman.
She would never admit that Chen Feng had no feelings for her. She would only think that Chen Feng might have a slight mysophobia and didn't like the smell of sweat.
Although she doesn't have body odor, as a Western woman, due to her diet, she still has some smell when she sweats.
This is also the main reason why Westerners like to use perfume, which can cover up some special smells on the body.
