I am not just a tycoon

Nighttime.

The hotel suite lights cast a delicate glow on Long Jinghan's graceful body, bathing her pale skin in a faint radiance.

Compared to last time in the activity room, both sets of blinds were closed, making the room somewhat dim.

And in this vast suite, her delicate body was laid bare under the bright lights.

Even with the protection of a white bra and jeans, she felt an intense shame as if she were being publicly stripped.

Especially Shen Yuan's expression and gaze, they weren't those of someone looking at a girl but at prey, making her feel more like a sex machine.

"Shen Yuan, can you not treat me like this..."n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Long Jinghan was extremely aggrieved, her voice breaking with tears.

Even without any emotional foundation between them, Long Jinghan felt it especially unfair to be treated this way.

Shen Yuan moved towards her with an expressionless face, grabbing her frail shoulders and pulling her towards him, followed by the sound of "ripping" as the average-quality white bra was torn apart.

Indeed, working out did have its benefits, at least it didn't take much effort to tear off a bra.

"Shen Yuan..."

Long Jinghan's helpless and beautiful eyes flickered with tears; she looked at Shen Yuan with a pleading expression.

There was no sign of sympathy on Shen Yuan's face as he picked her up and tossed her onto the large bed, then took out the four16 extinguisher and started to work.

As is well known, fire extinguishing requires certain conditions - it can only start when the situation inside reaches a moist state.

But today, the role Shen Yuan was playing didn't allow him much preliminary work; he began a vigorous fire extinguishing once the basic conditions were met.

A great sense of humiliation surged up in Long Jinghan's heart, and tears slowly slid down her face.

To get what she wanted, she could only silently endure it all.

45 minutes later, Shen Yuan got up with satisfaction after completing the fire extinguishing, stretching his body.

The tear stains on Long Jinghan's face had dried, and while these 45 minutes of fire extinguishing brought her some physical pleasure, it was mostly psychological and physical pain.

It seemed that her narrow path would need more time to adapt to the four16 extinguisher.

Shen Yuan lay down beside her, gently kneading her bun, "I got carried away just now and played a little role-playing, are you okay?"

Long Jinghan gave a soft hum from being operated on and couldn't help looking at him, "Role-playing?"

"Yeah, you know, that kind of role."

Hearing Shen Yuan's explanation, Long Jinghan felt even more wronged, her voice breaking with tears, "Then couldn't you have told me beforehand? I thought... I thought you were really like that..."

As Long Jinghan spoke, her sobs intensified, and tears rolled in her eyes. Shen Yuan reached out to wipe the tears from her face, "Yeah, I'll tell you in advance next time."

Long Jinghan cried louder, but this time it was tears of relief. She turned around, buried her face in his chest, and clasped her arms tightly around Shen Yuan's waist.

Shen Yuan stroked her smooth back to comfort her.

The junior's skin care was not bad - the skin was smooth, delicate, and fair. Under the soft light, it glowed even more.

After stopping her tears, Long Jinghan raised her teary eyes and said, "All my clothes have been torn by you. What am I supposed to wear now..."

Shen Yuan laughed, "Tomorrow morning, I'll have someone come over and bring a few sets of clothes."

"And the bra? The bra was also torn in two by you, you bad person."

"What's your size? I can have someone bring it over."

"Thirty-four, the third letter."

"Do you really have a third letter?"

Shen Yuan couldn't help but look down.

"Of course I do!"

Long Jinghan confidently stuck out her chest.

Shen Yuan smiled and turned over.

"Hiss.."

Shen Yuan started to put out the fire again, and with the groundwork laid just before, the firefighting channel was quickly activated this time.

Forty minutes later, the fire was out, and Shen Yuan sent all the photos from the LV and Prada shop assistants to Long Jinghan.

"Pick two."

Long Jinghan's eyes sparkled as she picked up her phone from the bedside table and saw myriad bags and accessories from LV and Prada that had been sent over.

"Shen Yuan, I can choose any of these?"

Long Jinghan asked tentatively.

"Mhm, mhm, don't worry about the price, just buy whatever you like."

Having said that, Shen Yuan continued to send WeChat messages asking the shop assistants from Balenciaga and Burberry to send some photos of the current season's clothes.

It was now 11 p.m., and young people generally didn't sleep this early, especially these shop assistants who wanted to earn an extra commission. Seeing the rhythm of a potential sale, they immediately replied to the WeChat messages.

After forwarding the pictures to Long Jinghan, Shen Yuan added, "After choosing the clothes, you can have them delivered, and for bags and accessories, you can also go to the store the next day to choose."

Shen Yuan didn't plan to accompany Long Jinghan shopping, as paying online would also allow him to earn cashback from the System.

"Mhm, mhm."

Long Jinghan was somewhat excited seeing these photos.

Her monthly allowance at the university was only 2000-3000, and she always felt that those bags worth tens of thousands and clothes worth thousands were out of her reach, considering a single bag could amount to her yearly expenses.

But now the thought of owning two luxury brand bags and choosing some expensive clothes caused a subtle shift in her mentality.

Wealthy people could not only make shop assistants work at 11 at night but also buy things without looking at the price, this was the life she had always dreamt of.

Was it about to come true?

Long Jinghan started to feel a strange sense of achievement. Having slept with Shen Yuan, she must be one of the very few among the many girls in the International campus, right?

Although she had given up something precious, and there was a sense of humiliation throughout the process, fortunately, the outcome was pleasing.

Shen Yuan intended to take a shower and casually have Long Jinghan help him scrub his back when suddenly the class belle, Fang Minhui's call came through.

Was this a check-up call?

"Shh."

Shen Yuan gestured for Long Jinghan to be quiet, then answered the phone.

"Hello."

"Hello, Yuan Babe, you haven't reached out to me in days."

Fang Minhui's voice came through the phone, whiny and dissatisfied.

"I've been busy, you know that."

Shen Yuan replied.

"But I miss you so much, when will you be free to come see me?"

Hearing this, Shen Yuan's mind conjured up the image of Fang Minhui pouting with a look of grievance.

Shen Yuan thought for a moment, "Hmm... I'll see about Monday or Tuesday."

"That's still at least 2 more days, too hard to wait."

"You should compare yourself to those in long-distance relationships who can't even see each other once a month—at least we meet 1-2 times a week."

"I don't want to compare with them; you're trying to PUA me again."

Fang Minhui complained on the phone.

After two more minutes of sweet nothings, they ended the call. Shen Yuan couldn't help but smile; the class belle was quite clingy.

Long Jinghan felt a sourness inside her as she heard Shen Yuan's conversation.

He spoke to that girl on the phone so gently and was so considerate of her feelings, something he had never shown to her.

"Ah, if only Shen Yuan would treat me like that one day~"

Long Jinghan sighed to herself.

"Come in and help me."

Suddenly, Shen Yuan's voice rang out in the bathroom, catching Long Jinghan off-guard. She put on her bathrobe and got up to enter the bathroom.

"Why are you wearing a bathrobe?"

Shen Yuan glanced at her, "Take it off."

"Can you not be so fierce, please...."

Long Jinghan reluctantly slipped out of the bathrobe.

....

The next morning, after getting out of bed, Shen Yuan had Long Jinghan eat breakfast and take a taxi home while he went to the gym at the Grand Hyatt Hotel for his fitness class.

Last night, Long Jinghan picked out two bags, three outfits, and two sets of the right-sized bras, costing a total of 112,000. Shen Yuan paid and asked the corresponding clerks to deliver them to the hotel.

This spree should have netted him 224,000, but after the purchase, Long Jinghan's feel-good index towards him surged by 5 points, triggering a critical hit and netting him 448,000 instead.

Gold diggers weren't necessarily bad. Long Jinghan's high critical hit rate made her a suitable NPC.

After eating Coach Liew's fitness meal at the Grand Hyatt suite, Shen Yuan started today's fitness lesson.

Because he hadn't taken classes in the past two days, Shen Yuan worked extra hard today to catch up on missed progress.

Bench press, barbell row, deep squat, burpees, jumping jacks...

"Huff, huff, huff..."

Two hours later, Shen Yuan was breathing heavily, his chest and back drenched in sweat. His quick-dry shirt could probably wring out a bucket of water at this point.

The fat burning and high-intensity training made Shen Yuan's body heat up, his muscles involuntarily twitching.

"Why are you pushing so hard today?"

Liew Menglu handed him a bottle of water.

Shen Yuan didn't reply, just took the water, opened it, took a huge gulp, and then checked his fitness panel.

Weight: 73.2KG

Health Points: 71

BMI: 20.8

Body Fat: 17.5%

Immunity: 71

Brain Activity: 72

Well, despite all the effort, the numbers only changed slightly, with body fat decreasing by just 0.2%, and weight showing no fluctuation at all.

There's only half a month left for the Peang Yuyan experience card task, so it looks like I'll need to step up the pace.

"Let's increase the intensity starting tomorrow, and adjust the fitness meal appropriately, too. The weight gain is still too slow."

"Mhm, okay."

Liew Menglu replied softly.

Back in the suite, Liew Menglu tenderly helped him shower, and the sly girl occasionally rubbed his back with her "headlights".

So, Shen Yuan who had just finished working out, ended up giving Liew Menglu a lesson in return.

Afterward, Shen Yuan started washing his face with the SK-II amino acid facial cleanser that Liew Menglu had bought.

Coach Liew, the attentive personal steward, had prepared not only clothes and shoes for Shen Yuan but also a razor, facial cleanser, lotion, and more.

After rinsing off the foam, Shen Yuan carefully inspected his face in the bathroom mirror.

Shen Yuan used to have acne, but after some time of exercising and skincare, his skin had improved a lot, and the acne was gradually disappearing.

"I'm looking good."

Liew Menglu, observing the handsome face in the mirror, couldn't help but wrap her arms around him from behind, saying contentedly.

"How good-looking?"

Shen Yuan couldn't resist asking.

"Even better looking than Peang Yuyan."

"Bullshit!"

Shen Yuan still had some self-awareness.

"No exaggeration," Liew Menglu whispered, "Peang Yuyan would be jealous if he saw you."

"Why would you say that?"

"Because Peang Yuyan could never have me."

Liew Menglu said coyly. Read new chapters at empire

Shen Yuan smiled; indeed, sometimes the subtle approach was best.

"Daddy, can you set a few more little goals for me?"

Liew Menglu twisted about restlessly, her headlights roaming in every direction.

"Is that what you want?"

"Yes, of course, I do."

"Then you need to show some performance first."

"How should I perform?"

Shen Yuan turned around, pressed her head down, "Lock on."

"Mmm..."
