I am not just a tycoon

Under the hazy moonlight and amidst the rippling waves,

Ji Ya and Long Jinghan bit their lower lips, looking at the source of the trembling, their faces flushed with shame.

Such a scene felt like an indulgence of voyeurism—if it were in a room it wouldn't matter, but it happened to be in the hotel pool, surrounded by openness, with the clear moonlight casting over them.

They tried initially to look away, but after enduring for a while, they couldn't help but lock their gazes on the two again.

But the longer they watched, not only did their breathing synchronize with Qiao Lei's rapid pace, but there was also a tingling expectation within them.

Especially for Ji Ya, during those damp nights without Shen Yuan, she sustained herself on these visual fragments.

Whenever there was a need, aside from retrieving toys from the bedside cabinet, she would conjure up these fragmented images.

As the rhythm between the two quickened, the water's surface misted with steam, blurring their vision. Ji Ya, unable to see clearly and growing anxious in the water, clenched her fists:

"Jinghan, maybe... we should get closer?"

"Hmm?"

Long Jinghan paused, surprised that Sister Ji Ya had such preferences—it seemed she wasn't as prim and proper as she appeared.

"Uh, no worries, if you don't want to go, we can stay here."

Ji Ya lowered her eyes with some embarrassment; she didn't dare to go by herself—it was too shameful.

"Let's go then."

Long Jinghan blinked her bright, beautiful eyes: "And let's tease Leilei a bit, as payback for how she provoked us earlier."

"Hmm?"

Ji Ya narrowed her mischievous eyes: "Jinghan, you didn't use to like playing pranks before."

Long Jinghan's cheeks were red: "It's mainly because she bullied us first."

Ji Ya didn't press further with a smile, but she could distinctly feel Long Jinghan's transformation tonight.

Before, she was very demure, never acting out of line, always following procedures meticulously—in front of Shen Yuan or Qiao Lei, also obedient and supple.

But tonight, coming out from her home, it was as if a switch had been flipped. She became livelier, daring to do things she wouldn't have before.

"Looks like the boss has resolved her issues tonight; she won't need to be constrained by her family anymore. Some aspects of her nature have been unleashed. That's really nice~"

Ji Ya silently reflected in her heart, then reached for her hand under the water: "Let's swim over then~"

"Mm."

They swam through the mist to approach Qiao Lei and Shen Yuan.

Upon seeing them, Qiao Lei was mortified, quickly covering her eyes: "Ah ah ah, why did you come over? My... this... my class isn't over yet."

"No problem, we're just auditing."

Ji Ya swam to Qiao Lei's left, pretending to steady her, while actually sliding her hand underneath the water: "Will this stabilize you a bit?"

Long Jinghan also swam to Qiao Lei's right, her hands wandering restlessly in the water: "Leilei, this should feel better, right?"

Qiao Lei was already struggling hard with her "class," and now with their "retaliation," she felt helplessly tearful: "Ah ah ah, just you wait, when it's your turn to have class, I'll make sure you get your comeuppance!"

"Leilei, you're still talking tough at this time."

Long Jinghan's hands caressed a full curve, moving slowly, even nibbling on her ear as she said, "No wonder Shen Yuan prefers touching you, this feels great."

Qiao Lei uttered a whimpering sound of grievance: "Sister, you've changed, you didn't use to do this."

"Wouldn't you enjoy it more this way?"

Long Jinghan's gaze fluidly shifted, then dipped her head into the water.

Qiao Lei felt something amiss and sure enough, a second later her body tensed up, then she bit her lower lip: "Sister..."

Shen Yuan watched them with amusement, noting how his influence had made the NPCs more playful, sometimes not needing his lead for them to get creative.

...

...

The next day, Shen Yuan awoke on the hotel's large bed, his hands groping instinctively to his left and right.

On the left was a slender, delicate body; on the right, a voluptuous figure.

Without even glancing at their faces, Shen Yuan knew they were Long Jinghan and Qiao Lei, respectively.

As for Ji Ya, who would have been in-between based on touch, she was either off preparing breakfast or busy with something else.

The previous night, from 10 p.m., they had carried on until after 2 a.m., but he couldn't be blamed—the three of them were all in great shape.

Especially for Long Jinghan, who had freed herself from family constraints, she had soared effortlessly.

She seemed to even undergo a slight change in physique, frequently shivering.

Qiao Lei felt a large hand roaming around her waist and frowned drowsily, "Senior, I need to sleep more~"

"Mm, sleep then."

Shen Yuan pinched her nose lightly.

Her pale nostrils immediately pinched into a pinkish hue, and she shook her head in dissatisfaction: "Senior, stop it, I was so tired last night~"

Still not willing to open her eyes after all that… Shen Yuan chuckled.

Then his gaze moved up—the Feel-good Index had silently changed after one night's class, from 78 to 80.

As for Long Jinghan, it directly went from 80 to 84, rising by four points, likely a result both of the "class" and of resolving her family affairs from the night before.

Shen Yuan stroked her smooth forehead, smoothing the messy hair to the sides, revealing a peaceful face.

Accidentally waking her, she rubbed her eyes to clear them, then looked at Shen Yuan sincerely: "You're up, are you hungry? Should I call for hotel breakfast, or do you want to go to the buffet?"

"Ji Ya probably went to prepare, it's fine, you sleep some more."

Shen Yuan tenderly caressed her forehead, after the previous night's lesson, Qiao Lei had fallen asleep instantly, but Long Jinghan stayed up late with Ji Ya until after attending to Shen Yuan, finally settling down to sleep.
