In the evening, Meng Zhaojun first drove Shen Bei'an to Qieting Fengyin. Yan Wu and Yan Yin still stayed by Shen Bei'an's side to protect him, and there were many other people hiding in the shadows.

Shen Bei'an carefully leaned on the car seat and kissed Gu Nan'an's lips. "Yan'an and the two little darlings are waiting for me at home."

Shen Bei'an would never say why Gu Nan'an had so many people around him. Isn't having someone protect you a great sense of security?

As for the two burly men, Yan Wu and Yan Yin, Shen Bei'an was already used to having them around. Although he knew a little bit of Sanda (Chinese kickboxing), he was still no match for a professional.

"I'll wait for my husband at home." Gu Nanyan didn't dislike Shen Bei'an taking the initiative; in fact, he quite liked it.

But often, just as Fifth Master is about to take the initiative, he chickens out the next second.

As soon as Shen Bei'an got out of the car, Yan Wu and Yan Yin were already standing beside him.

Many young noblemen who came to listen to the wind and enjoy the scenery, but upon seeing this, they all subconsciously walked around it.

That stunningly beautiful face, those exquisite embroidered ornaments, and the elegant styling around her waist.

There were two burly men standing beside him.

How could an ordinary person dare to approach?

Shen Bei'an's peach blossom eyes swept across the scene and spotted two figures in lake blue.

"Beibei, you've made quite a grand entrance." Fu Mutian glanced at Yan Wu and Yan Yin. In the entire capital, no, in the entire empire, there was only one person who would bring bodyguards to "Listen to the Wind".

Everyone knows that Listen to the Wind's Security is the best in the world.

“Ah Yan was worried about me, so he brought them along. They can also help carry things, which is great.” Shen Bei’an didn’t mind at all. Yan Wu and Yan Yin had been by his side for a long time, and he liked these two subordinates very much.

When the topic of "taking things" came up, Fu Mutian's face showed a hint of satisfaction.

When Master Shen strolled around the streets, he truly seemed to disregard the lives of others.

Even someone like Fu Mutian, who has practiced martial arts since childhood, really can't afford to accompany her.

The items in the shopping malls that could catch Master Shen's eye were naturally all top-quality, but everything in Master Shen's mansion was a custom-made item.

They usually buy them as gifts or for collection, and rarely use them themselves.

But Fifth Master couldn't resist his love for shopping.

There's also a doting eldest son behind her.

Having spent a long time with Shen Bei'an, Fu Mutian naturally didn't care about formalities, but Cheng Yan was different.

When Shen Bei'an looked over, Cheng Yan subconsciously performed a deep bow, saying, "Greetings, Fifth Master Shen." His voice was full of humility.

Her posture, however, was quite graceful.

"Get up." After learning about Cheng Yan's past, Shen Bei'an looked at Cheng Yan without any pity. He knew that Cheng Yan did not need pity.

"Thank you, Fifth Master Chen." Cheng Yan stood behind Fu Mutian, his lake-blue robe with a cross-collar further highlighting his elegant demeanor.

If we hadn't known Cheng Yan's background beforehand, who wouldn't call him a handsome young man?

"Let's go in together. There are probably already quite a few people at the ski resort." Fu Mutian reached out and took Cheng Yan's hand.

Cheng Yan blushed slightly, but ultimately did not push him away.

Shen Bei'an found it strange; Cheng Yan really did cater to Tian Jie'er's preferences in every way.

“I know you don’t like crowded places. These are all young masters from prominent families, and they’re all tight-lipped. I’ll make sure you have a great time.” Fu Mutian said to Shen Bei’an as she walked over.

“I trust the people you found.” Shen Bei’an smiled. He didn’t like socializing and only had three close friends, but when it came to snowball fights, the more people the better.

Fu Mutian happens to be a social butterfly and is very well-connected in Beijing's social circles.

On the left side of the ski area, several young men were already waiting. Each of them had delicate features and wore various gorgeous robes, making them a pleasing sight to behold.

"Greetings, Fifth Master Shen! Greetings, Ninth Young Master Fu!" They all bowed and extended their hands in greeting.

"Get up." Shen Bei'an waved his hand.

Very well, looking around, there are a few that look somewhat familiar, but I don't recognize any of them.

Fu Mutian didn't give much of an introduction, and the scions of those aristocratic families didn't introduce themselves either.

Everyone knows that Master Shen hates trouble the most.

After exchanging a few words and understanding the rules, they started playing a snowball fight.

Unlike the eldest son, Fifth Master Shen was always at ease wherever he went, doing things that benefited himself.

When Master Shen played, he really played.

"That was great!" A young master from a prominent family sat down in the snow without any regard for his image. "I never knew Fifth Master could play like this!" His face was red from the cold.

"That's right, Fifth Master's ball just now went straight for Ji Qi's forehead!" another young master laughed.

...

Master Shen was also sitting on the snow, his robes covered in snow, while Yan Wu and Yan Yin were clean.

"Let's play together again next time!" Master Shen smiled, stunning everyone.

A chorus of swallowing sounds filled the air.

Fu Mutian walked over and kicked the young man closest to her in the butt. "A bunch of lustful bastards, shut your mouths!"

"You think you're worthy of even considering the Fifth Master Shen?"

That's what they said, but everyone knew it was just a joke.

"Cough cough, how could that be! Fifth Master and Young Master are a perfect match! Don't you all agree?" Ji Qi wasn't angry at being kicked, and said loudly with a smile.

"That's a perfect match!"

The other young masters echoed this sentiment.

Shen Beian's cheeks turned red from their comments, but luckily they were on the snow, and since his cheeks were already a little red, no one could tell.

"Let's go, I'll treat you to a late-night snack!" Shen Bei'an stood up, brushed the snow off his robes, and stretched. "What would you like to eat?"

"Since Master Shen is treating us, we should naturally eat something good!"

These young masters are all spoiled brats from wealthy families. Their families are all quite prestigious, and some are even from the eldest son's branch of the family. They have seen a lot from their elders and are all quite outgoing.

"Let's have a barbecue, it'll be more lively with more people," Fu Mutian suggested. If they were to have hot pot, she was really afraid that the person at Biluo Xiaozhu might come and kill her.

Master Shen is a bit of a germaphobe.

At home, pots are usually small, one for each person, or shared by a husband and wife.

When cooking in a large pot, each person usually gets two pairs of chopsticks, one pair for the pot and one pair for the mouth.

"Listen to the Wind" also has a self-service barbecue area. Fresh venison and beef were just delivered today, along with fresh shrimp, live fish, and vegetables.

Fu Mutian didn't mention mutton, as it was something Shen Bei'an disliked, and they generally wouldn't mention it during meals.

"I'm fine with it." Shen Beian suggested that he was relatively easy to take care of.

"Of course, no problem! Eating barbecue with Fifth Master is something many people would love to do!" Ji Qi said with a grin.

"You're such a chatterbox." Fu Mutian chuckled as she held Cheng Yan's hand.

Among these spoiled young masters, there was one who seemed to be the leader, none other than the seventh young master of the Ji family—Ji Zhengqi.

Ugh, I'm craving barbecue!
