I am not just a tycoon

Teacher Lih couldn't stand it, feeling as though several ants were crawling over her body, creating an uncomfortable sensation similar to a gripping and scratching at her heart.

This itself would have been enough, but she also had to pretend to eat as if nothing was amiss, without making any unnecessary movements because Mr. Shen's wife and mistress were right beside her.

Teacher Lih glanced at Mr. Shen from the corner of her eye and noticed his exceptionally calm expression; he held a bowl in one hand and chopsticks in the other, picking up food without looking down. Who would have known the liberties he was taking under the table?

Shen Yuan wasn't new to this kind of daring operation; he had grown accustomed to a big heart through experience.

This was true both at Teacher Lih's home and at Mrs. Lin's house, akin to walking a high wire.

Speaking of Mrs. Lin, it had been a while since Shen Yuan had visited her. She had been on her period a few days earlier, and Shen Yuan hadn't been in Star City in the past few days.

Last night, Mrs. Lin had sent him a WeChat message saying her air conditioner had broken again.

Unfortunately, Shen Yuan wasn't in Star City; otherwise, he would surely have gone to solve this young mistress's domestic troubles.

Perhaps it was a case of great minds thinking alike; just as Shen Yuan was thinking of Mrs. Lin, she sent him a WeChat message.

"Shen Yuan, I have found a lawyer and am preparing to file for divorce from Zeng Xianyong in the next couple of days."

Seeing this message, Shen Yuan felt a pang of regret. A perfectly good married woman saying she was getting a divorce just like that, and just like that, the stackable speed and critical hit buff was gone.

What a pity, truly a pity.

Even though he thought this, Shen Yuan still replied, "Congratulations on choosing a new life."

Lin Yuchang: "And thank you. Without you, I might have been conflicted for a long time."

Shen Yuan: "I didn't mean to break up your marriage. /I'm not taking the blame.emjio/"

Lin Yuchang: "Ha-ha, I'm not making you take the blame. I had lost feelings for him long ago. By the way, when are you coming back?"

Shen Yuan: "In about 4 or 5 days."

Lin Yuchang: "The air conditioner is broken again. /Embarrassed.emjio/"

Shen Yuan: "Then how can you sleep without an air conditioner? /Mischievous.emjio/"

Lin Yuchang: "No choice, I just have to bear it, or maybe... use a hand fan."

Shen Yuan was momentarily stunned, then quickly realized what using a hand fan meant.

Good job, Mrs. Lin, taking matters into your own hands while I'm not there, huh?

Just as Shen Yuan was pondering how to respond, Lin Yuchang immediately retracted the message.

Shen Yuan then replied: "I saw it."

At that moment in Fanghuali Neighborhood, Lin Yuchang blushed and burned with embarrassment. When had she turned into the kind of seductress the internet spoke of?

Whenever she felt a moral burden, Lin Yuchang would remember that Zeng Xianyong was not any better, fooling around outside every day.

With this thought, she suddenly felt less burdened.

Lin Yuchang gritted her teeth and replied: "When you come back, can you fix my air conditioner a few more times?"

Receiving the WeChat message, Shen Yuan squinted his eyes and replied: "It depends on your performance."

After replying to the WeChat message, Shen Yuan continued to tackle his meal; however, stirred by Mrs. Lin's flirtation, he couldn't help but feel a stir of restless desire.

He glanced at Teacher Lih, who had the face of a married woman across from him, lifted his foot higher, and following the slippery nylon, actually stretched his toes right up to the gray bodycon skirt...

Teacher Lih's body trembled, and she began to sweat nervously.

She desperately resisted the urge to twist her body, silently scraping at her rice. Although she could control her actions, she couldn't contain the flush on her cheeks and the sweat on her forehead.

Chen Na noticed Teacher Lih's reddened face and asked, "Caregiver Ji, is it too spicy for you?"

Teacher Lih hurriedly nodded, giving an awkward smile: "I usually eat less spicy food."

"We really didn't consider that, as all three of us are quite tolerant to spicy food."

Chen Na gave her a thoughtful look, then apologized and pushed over a glass of water: "You can dip your food in water here before eating. That should make it less spicy."

"Thank you."

Teacher Lih said, then guiltily lowered her head.

Shen Yuan gave Teacher Lih a meaningful look, feeling it was enough, no longer teased her, and retracted his foot to continue eating.

And Teacher Lih heaved a sigh of relief, thinking how fortunate she was that Mr. Shen was not only daring but also significantly mischievous.

After the four had finished eating, Teacher Lih began to clean up the table. After everything was tidied, she said, "Mr. Shen, Miss Chen, do you need me to draw a bath for you tonight? Shall I prepare the water?"

Chen Na thought for a moment, then nodded: "Let's do it, thanks."

"All right, I'll go up and prepare the water now."

Having said that, Teacher Lih then swayed her pert buttocks and clacked upstairs.

"Shen Yuan, we're going to Licheng tomorrow morning. Do you think it's too rushed?" Chen Na asked.

"No, I think it's OK."

When Licheng came up, Shen Yuan immediately thought of Cang Mountain and Lake Erhai, as well as the ancient town. The photos online were all very beautiful, and being there in person would definitely be like today's Dian Lake, at least ten times more beautiful than in the photos.

While Shen Yuan was picturing the beautiful sceneries in his mind, Chen Na asked again, "My sister and I want to digest our meal by taking a walk outside. Would you like to come?"

"You two sisters go ahead. I'll pass."

Shen Yuan waved his hand. As the two sisters linked arms and left the house, he sighed.

During the meal, Shen Yuan had not been sure.

But now he could definitively say that Nana had noticed something between him and Teacher Lih. She had suggested going for a walk to digest their meal as a way to give him space and time.

Chen Xinyu, a girl with little social experience, would never have noticed, but Chen Na, with a background in sales, had a strong ability to observe and perceive.

Nana was really... understanding in a way that was heartbreaking.

Thinking about it, Shen Yuan felt somewhat guilty, as if he should slap himself twice for engaging in such risky maneuvers. Maybe it was time for things to backfire?

However, things had come to this point, and he couldn't let down Nana's kind intentions.

Thinking of this, Shen Yuan silently walked up to the second floor.

...

Meanwhile, Chen Na and Chen Xinyu left the mansion and went for a walk by the river. Listening to the gurgling sound of the water and watching the flowing stream, Chen Na felt indifferent.

As long as Shen Yuan didn't get emotionally involved, Chen Na didn't mind much.

She even thought of thanking Ji Ya. Without her, Chen Na would have had to use her own hands and mouth.

After all, she couldn't stop Shen Yuan from finding other women. Rather than fighting jealously and annoying him, it was better to let go when needed, showing her generosity and tolerance.

Shen Yuan probably liked such women... Chen Na thought to herself.

Chen Na considered herself lucky. Although she saw herself as a canary, Shen Yuan treated her like his primary partner.

A house worth over three million, a sports car worth over two million, and he even bought a house and a car for her parents, not to mention the five million in pocket money he gave her recently.

Most importantly, Shen Yuan had introduced her to his parents as his girlfriend.

Wasn't this the treatment of a primary partner?

With such treatment, was there any reason to be unreasonable?

As for her sister... Chen Na glanced at Chen Xinyu, noticing their identical fair skin and the similar features, mainly differing in height and figure.

Chen Xinyu was probably around 167 cm tall but had a more voluptuous figure, while Chen Na was about 172 cm tall, with longer legs.

The two sisters envied each other; Chen Xinyu envied her sister's long legs, while Chen Na coveted her sister's bustiness.

After some reflection that afternoon, Chen Na decided not to interfere and just let things take their natural course.

Chen Na wrapped her arm around Chen Xinyu's shoulder, smiling and asked, "Xinyu, did you enjoy today?"

"Mhm, it was fun."

"....."

Shen Yuan reached the second floor where Ji Ya was kneeling by the edge of the soaking pool, regulating the water.

From Shen Yuan's perspective, Ji Ya was facing away from him, perfectly displaying her plump buttocks, raised high under her gray figure-hugging skirt.

The black stockings she wore further accentuated the voluptuousness of her thighs, adding a sense of allure to the view.

Shen Yuan sat down on a lounge chair next to the soaking pool and casually asked, "How did you sleep last night?"

Hearing the footsteps earlier, Ji Ya knew Shen Yuan was behind her, and somewhat awkwardly adjusted her hair, "It was okay."

"Didn't I tell you to pick something at the luxury store? Why didn't you go today?"

Shen Yuan asked verbally, his feet however, started to misbehave, groping her through the gray figure-hugging skirt.

Ji Ya stiffened for a moment, then hesitatingly replied, "I was busy today, I plan to go tomorrow. Mr. Shen, Miss Chen is downstairs."

"I'm heading to Licheng tomorrow."

Shen Yuan didn't respond to the latter part of Ji Ya's sentence, but instead slid his hand up her skirt, the black stockings stirring Ji Ya's emotions.

"Mm... I hope you have fun in Licheng."

Ji Ya replied softly, her body involuntarily squirming as she turned her head, her expression pleading, "Mr. Shen... Miss Chen is still downstairs."

"They went for a walk."

Shen Yuan beckoned her with his hand, "Come here."

Ji Ya shyly stood up, her cheeks flushing to her ears, and walked slowly towards Shen Yuan.

"Kneel down."

Shen Yuan pointed to the ground.

"Um... Mr. Shen."

Ji Ya, aware of what Shen Yuan wanted, said with difficulty, "This is really not right."

"I know what you are worried about, but they have already gone for a walk; they won't be back for at least an hour," Shen Yuan said.

"An hour later?"

Ji Ya, puzzled, replied, "But isn't a walk usually just ten or twenty minutes?"

Shen Yuan chuckled, "You don't need to worry about that; they won't be back so soon."

Ji Ya was startled for a moment, and then realized what his words implied.

Combining the fact that Miss Chen had asked her to regulate the water, and then went out for an hour walk... it indicated Miss Chen already knew about her and Mr. Shen's affair.

This...

Upon realizing the truth, Ji Ya was completely dumbfounded. What kind of woman was Miss Chen, to be able to act to this extent?

She was Mr. Shen's partner and even bearing Mr. Shen's child.

Could she really be so indifferent?

In just two days, Ji Ya's worldview had been completely shaken, causing her to see Shen Yuan in a new light.

What kind of charm did Mr. Shen possess? Even being wealthy wouldn't normally lead a woman to act to such an extent, would it?

Shen Yuan glanced at his watch, "Caretaker Ji, you have an hour to serve me; what are you waiting for?"

"Um..."

Ji Ya hesitated and said, "But I don't know how to do this."

"It's simple."

"Um..."

"Stop saying um."
