After satisfying her curiosity, she said her feet were a bit swollen and very sore, and she wanted him to give her a massage.

Pregnant women have it tough, with all sorts of physiological changes and discomforts.

Chen Feng couldn’t very well refuse.

So, she lay on the bed, stretched her legs out to Chen Feng, pointed at her ankle and said, "Right here, it’s very sore, help me massage it."

Her maternity dress was still a skirt, and the weather in Xiu Zhou was still over twenty degrees in October.

As a result, Chen Feng obediently lifted her snow-white jade-like leg. You can imagine the situation.

Almost an hour later, Chen Feng got off the bed feeling a bit speechless, while Liu Ying had a satisfied look on her face, still lying there, slightly turning her face and squinting her eyes, smiling at him.

"You should rest a bit more, I still have to go check on Hong Xiaodan."

Chen Feng said openly to Liu Ying.

"Alright, after you’re done there, come back here and have dinner with me, okay?"

"We’ll see, it’s my first day back today, I might need to go back to No. 8 Villa for dinner tonight."

The smile on Liu Ying’s face froze for a moment, then she smiled again and said, "Okay, do as you see fit."

Chen Feng quickly put on his clothes, tidied up a bit, nodded to her, and went out.

What a heartless, stone-hearted man!

Liu Ying muttered to herself, struggling a bit to reach for the phone on the bedside table, then sent a voice message to Hong Xiaodan.

[Chen Feng is on his way to your place, try to keep him there as late as possible and have dinner with him tonight]

Hong Xiaodan called her directly and asked, "Sis, what’s up? Why do you want me to keep him there?"

Liu Ying asked back irritably, "Don’t you want to have dinner with him?"

"I do, but he often doesn’t want to spend much time with me. Not to mention staying for dinner."

"Are you stupid? You’re a woman, and a beautiful one at that. Now you’re carrying his child, he might not respect you, but he definitely respects the child in your belly. As long as you play to your female advantages, you can’t fail to keep him there."

"Why do I have to keep him there?"

"Because he just refused to have dinner with me tonight and said he’s going back to No. 8 Villa to eat with those two women. I’m really pissed off."

"Oh, why does that make you angry? It’s not like it’s his first day living with Wu Mengting and Sun Xiaorui."

Hong Xiaodan’s oblivious comment made Liu Ying furious; this is truly a teammate who doesn’t get it, with no sense of competition or awareness of potential threats.

"Haven’t you noticed, even though we’re carrying his children now, in his heart, we’re still not as important as those two?"

This piercing remark left Hong Xiaodan silent.

"I know you’ve resigned yourself to this, but I haven’t. At least we shouldn’t sit idly by, we need to do something to fight back. Don’t you agree?"

"Okay, I’ll try to keep him there. It’s almost three now, dragging on for another two or three hours might be tough, but I’ll do my best."

"Good, that’s my good sister. I believe in you, you’re a woman, and now you’re carrying his child. Just be a bit gentle and pitiful, like saying your back and legs hurt, and ask him to help massage them. You know what to do, right? If he takes the bait, time will pass quickly, and he’ll miss dinner time."

"Well... I’ll give it a try."

Hong Xiaodan said somewhat unconfidently, as she had tried to be proactive several times before, but Chen Feng remained unmoved, at most letting her take some minor advantages.
