I am not just a tycoon

I miscalculated, really miscalculated... Shen Yuan didn't expect Teacher Lih to be so enthusiastic today.

But he truly couldn't bear it, that was her sister's... Shen Yuan found himself troubled.

Seeing Shen Yuan hesitate, Lih Xiao thought he was really concerned about her and thus firmly spoke again, "Shen Yuan, don't worry about me, I'm really not tired."

Shen Yuan sighed silently in his heart and decided not to hesitate anymore, "Okay then."

"So... go to my room then?"

Lih Xiao suggested.

After she finished speaking, her cheeks blushed brightly with a coy shyness.

Shen Yuan had intended to wash up, but Lih Meng had been in the bathroom the whole time, cutting off that thought.

Women sure do dawdle when taking baths.

Lih Xiao shyly walked into the bedroom, and when Shen Yuan followed, Lih Xiao closed the bedroom door and once again embraced Shen Yuan.

Then, she stood on her tiptoes and leaned in with her rosy lips.

Just kissed the sister, now kissing the elder one... after all, you're two sisters, family matters should stay within the family.

Let's do this!

Ten minutes later, Lih Meng, dressed in pajamas, came out of the bathroom, intending to check if Lih Xiao had returned.

But the living room was empty, and her sister's bedroom door was shut.

She paused, her mind quickly grasping the situation, and then a hint of loss flickered in her beautiful eyes.

Right, he likes my sister, he belongs to her... and I am just an accessory.

Lih Meng scoffed at herself.

In the bedroom, Lih Xiao was helping Shen Yuan relieve his tension with her 'prey.'

Speaking of relieving stress for students, she wasn't inexperienced and had done it for Shen Yuan twice already.

Unnoticed, a fine sheen of sweat appeared on Lih Xiao's forehead, and her delicate body also grew damp with sweat.

Especially on her 'prey,' since she had to hold it with both hands, which caused her fair skin to become suffocated.

There was a benefit to this, too; it ensured there was no lack of moisture during the process.

Just as Lih Xiao looked down, she saw Shen Yuan's 'fire extinguisher'

Suddenly, she remembered, it might also be usable on the road?

But... wouldn't it be too dirty?

Lih Xiao hesitated, but then thought about Shen Yuan being so considerate towards her, should she help him properly?

With that thought, Lih Xiao steeled her heart and parted her red lips...

"Hey, don't!"

Shen Yuan, who had just been leaning back on the bed with his hands, looking at the ceiling,

Didn't expect to be suddenly met with a moist and warm touch; it turned out to be the counselor...

Lih Xiao stopped her actions, her face blushing as she looked up, "What's wrong?"

"Ah..."

Shen Yuan said, "It's nothing, carry on."

Shen Yuan consoled himself inwardly, trying to lessen his feeling of guilt.

After all, Teacher Lih came to him on her own, he couldn't be blamed.

After 20 minutes, Lih Xiao, who had been kneeling, stood up from the floor with difficulty.

My knees really hurt, I must pad them next time... Lih Xiao thought to herself.

She then ran out to rinse her mouth, and afterward lay down beside Shen Yuan, "Shen Yuan... it wasn't quite like what I expected."

"Hm? What wasn't?"

Shen Yuan asked.

It was Teacher Lih's first time 'driving,' and it was a bit awkward at the beginning, but she slowly found her own rhythm.

Lih Xiao shook her head shyly, "Never mind, it's so embarrassing, let's not talk about that."

Lih Xiao's voice was soft and sweet as she turned slightly and snuggled into Shen Yuan's arms as if sharing a girl's little secret with him.

"Are boys all like this?" Lih Xiao curiously asked.

"I don't know."

Shen Yuan had never tried it, so how could he know.

"Okay... but it's late now, do you want to sleep here or go back to sleep?" Lih Xiao asked again.

"I'll go back to sleep," Shen Yuan replied.

The task for the day was complete, it was time to depart.

Lih Xiao didn't insist, "That's fine, I do feel a bit bad for always making you sleep on the sofa."

After resting a while longer, Shen Yuan got up and left the bedroom, greeting Lih Meng in the living room, "I'm leaving."

Dressed in a pale green nightgown, Lih Meng sat on the couch, hugging her knees. Hearing Shen Yuan, she just lightly "oh" in response.

"Drive safely tonight."

Lih Xiao saw Shen Yuan off to the elevator and reminded him once more before returning to the living room to sit beside Lih Meng.

"Little sister, what do you think of Shen Yuan? Do you think it's right for me to be with him?"

Lih Xiao's face wore a sweet smile, eager to hear Lih Meng's opinion.

"He's quite nice."

Lih Meng replied listlessly.

Noticing her sister's lack of enthusiasm, Lih Xiao asked, "Are you not in a good mood?"

"No, I'm fine, probably just tired," Lih Meng replied casually.

"Then you should rest early, I'm going to take a shower too," Lih Meng said as she got up.

"Sister."

At that moment, Lih Meng called after her.

"What is it?" Lih Xiao turned around.

A sentence seemed lodged in her throat, and Lih Meng wanted to say it but couldn't. After a prolonged silence, under Lih Xiao's puzzled gaze, Lih Meng finally uttered the decision she had been struggling with for a long time.

"Shen Yuan is quite nice, and I'm all for you being with him,"

Lih Xiao's smile blossomed: "Yeah, that's great, I was worried you wouldn't like him."

"Hmm"

By the time Lih Xiao had entered the bathroom, Lih Meng's expression drooped again. She aimlessly scrolled through her phone as teardrops slowly fell, gradually soaking her pajama pants.

Biting her teeth and holding back tears, she opened WeChat and sent a message to Shen Yuan: "Shen Yuan, let's end our partnership here."

Shen Yuan had just gotten into the car and received the message. He was somewhat puzzled upon reading Lih Meng's WeChat.

Did I take things too far today?

Did Lih Meng not like this playful banter?

Shen Yuan immediately replied: "What's going on?"

Lih Meng: "Nothing. It's settled then, I'm going to sleep."

Inside the driver's seat of the Benz G-Class, Shen Yuan was baffled, thinking to himself where had he displeased her?

Why not make it clear?

But since Lih Meng had said so, Shen Yuan didn't ask further. He planned to make another trip to confront the issue face to face.

At this moment, Lih Meng had returned to her bed, pulling the covers over her head, followed by muffled sobs from beneath.

.....

Shen Yuan got back to Songhu Tiandi at 10:30 PM, where Chen Xinyu and Shen Xuan, the two young ladies, were watching TV on the sofa.

Shen Xuan was spread out in a careless manner, her legs thrown atop the coffee table, munching on a bag of chips, completely letting go of herself without Shen Yuan around.

Chen Xinyu, on the other hand, sat much more properly, perched on the sofa, hands resting on her thighs, quietly watching the television.

"Bro, why are you so late?"

Shen Xuan asked, munching on her chips as she turned to inquire.

"Been busy lately."

Shen Yuan, while changing his shoes, casually responded and then walked into the living room to chide: "Look at you, not ladylike at all. Can't you learn something from Xinyu?"

Shen Xuan muttered discontentedly: "Aren't I supposed to be comfortable at home? You won't even let me indulge after finishing my exams?"

"Even if you want to indulge, you can't go too far, or you'll have trouble finding someone to marry," Shen Yuan retorted.

Shen Xuan stuck out her tongue: "Anyway, I have no plans to marry. I'll just live off the parents in the future."

"Besides, I learned this way of lying from you. You always did this at home, don't you remember? Mom would often nag you about it."

Shen Xuan spoke rapidly like a machine gun, and Shen Yuan couldn't be bothered to respond.

"Bro, can I come on the trip?"

Shen Xuan had heard about her brother's travel plans to take his sister-in-law and Xinyu along, which unsettled her.

I am your beloved sister after all.

Are you not taking me?

Shen Yuan replied: "Didn't you just go to Sanya last time? And now that you have summer vacation, you should spend time with mom and dad. They're idle at home. Stay at home more, don't keep running here."

"Such filial piety,"

Shen Xuan rolled her eyes: "You have no idea how tough it is for your sister at home. Mom picks on me every other day, constantly nagging this and that."

Shen Yuan smiled at her misfortune, recalling the nagging he used to endure at home, and now Shen Xuan was experiencing it.

Chen Xinyu seized the opportunity while the siblings were talking to greet: "Brother-in-law."

"Hmm?"

Shen Yuan nodded.

Chen Xinyu, with her hair tied in a ponytail and dressed in a loose pink pajama set, sat daintily on the sofa, her face slightly flushed.

Even in the loose pajamas, her curvy shape was evident.

What's that saying… "My family's young girl has come of age."

The day is near.

"Shen Yuan."

At that moment, Chen Na, wearing a white nightgown with her hair casually draped over her shoulders, came out: "The hot water is ready, you can take a bath now."

"Okay."

Shen Yuan then headed toward the master bedroom.

"Bro!"

Shen Xuan called out loudly: "Take me with you, I can pay for myself, I can even pay extra."

Shen Yuan couldn't help but turn and ask: "Where did you get the money?"

Shen Xuan grinned: "The pocket money sister-in-law gave me, hehe."

Your sister-in-law's money is also your brother's money… Shen Yuan murmured in his mind, then replied: "Next time, the MPV only fits four people, and the tickets have all been booked."

Shen Xuan drooped and let out a disheartened "oh," realizing her dreams of traveling to Southern Yunnan were dashed.

Shen Yuan walked into the master bedroom's bathroom and, with Chen Na's help, stepped into the bathtub and sat down.

The just-right hot water immediately opened Shen Yuan's pores, making him exhale deeply.

"Comfortable."

"Mmm... is the water temperature okay?" Chen Na asked softly as she sat on a stool, massaging Shen Yuan's shoulders.

"It's okay," Shen Yuan's head leaned back.

"Actually, we have two MPVs, one with four seats and another with seven."

While massaging Shen Yuan's shoulders, Chen Na said.

Shen Yuan "hmm'd" in response: "I know, I just don't want to bring Shen Xuan along; better she stays home to keep mom and dad company."

"Okay then. The flights have been booked by Housekeeper Wen for Sunday afternoon, the day after tomorrow," Chen Na mentioned softly. "I told Housekeeper Wen that one vehicle will depart a day earlier to wait for us in Kuncheng, while the other will take us to the airport in the morning."

"Alright, as long as you've got it organized,"

Shen Yuan had never worried about arranging the itinerary, the guides, or booking hotels and flights; he had just told Chen Na the departure and return dates.

She had been careful, not only creating her own travel guide but also enlisting the help of the private team Wen Jing to prepare another set of travel strategies.

Then she combined her guide with Wen Jing's and selected what she thought was the most appropriate plan.
