Chapter 102: Sleepless and Enjoyable
-
Shen Yueze was the last to leave the hotel lobby. The door to the outdoor pool was open, and the night breeze blew, rippling the water in layers. The sound was faint and irregular, and the atmosphere was quiet and melancholy.
After taking the ice water, he turned off the light, twisted the bottle cap as he walked towards the bedroom, and took two sips.
The noise next door was quite loud. Ye Qingchi and Ling Ling, who lived there, happened to be a couple. Their nightlife was quite exciting, and you could hear faint sounds when you passed by.
His phone was charging on the bedside table, the lamp was on, and he calmly closed the door, got into bed, the phone screen lit up briefly, vibrated twice, but didn't ring; he had silenced it beforehand.
Two photos, no words spoken.
I was quite surprised that she took the initiative to send me a message.
I spent the day with that group of people so much that I almost forgot their names.
He clicked on it, zoomed in on the photo, raised an eyebrow very slightly, leaned casually against the pillow, bent his legs, and continued zooming in.
I stared at it for a few seconds, my mind filled with images of myself being so overwhelmed by my own performance that I lost my focus.
I've seen it quite a few times, but it depends on the environment. I'm used to seeing her naked in bed, bathroom, or living room at home.
I haven't done this outside, but this apartment is full of acquaintances, and it was closed to the public for quite a few days.
A moment later, a reply came: "[Sent to the wrong person.]"
He had considered several possible outcomes: reconciliation, seduction, or admitting fault.
It's more likely that it was sent to the wrong person.
you guess……
He replied: [Cheng Jingze? Or Jiang Lin? If I weren't staying here, you guys would be having a great time playing striptease, wouldn't you?]
【You already received money from them, so two bills aren't enough. You'd better send out more.】
She: [Oh, what angle should I post? You're a man too, you understand men best. What kind of thoughts will they have after seeing this kind of content?]
I haven't really been in the mood for these things lately.
Ye Qingchi and Shen Kuo knew quite a few girls. They thought that the best way to make him forget the unpleasant past and forget Wen Yining was to find a new love.
He has no shortage of money or time to travel the world. He lives a more extravagant and carefree life than anyone else, indulging in cars, watches, and women, and using only the most expensive food and household items.
His father and older brother weren't very strict with him and didn't care what he did every day. They felt that at his age, he should be left to his own devices.
The only thing missing is someone who can enter his heart.
It depends on fate. Anyway, it's never a bad thing to meet more girls. Shen Kuo organized a gathering to introduce him to them.

Two weeks ago.
When Shen Kuo's cousin heard Xie Yuchen talk about his breakup and hospitalization, he connected it with the fact that he had been taken to the police station before. Without asking, he knew roughly what had happened. He immediately asked his subordinate to send the LaFerrari over. At that time, he was busy with meetings every day and didn't have time to leave.
The assistant was slightly surprised and asked the boss, "Isn't he only in his early twenties? You're spoiling him rotten. You gave him a LaFerrari this time, what will you give him next time? Isn't that a bit excessive, boss? Why don't you think about it and get him a different car? You don't want to regret it later."
There are only four of these convertible LaFerraris in the whole country. The assistant knew that many people around the boss wanted to buy them at high prices. The original price was more than 20 million, but because of their extreme rarity, the offer was 50 million, but Shen Kuo refused to sell.
He reluctantly gave it up, since he needed Shen Zongjun's help and he also had a good relationship with Shen Yueze. "I'll send it to him. He's at the age where he likes cars and picking up girls."
Men always go through this phase. When he was a teenager or in his early twenties, he also liked supercars and Richard, and he was willing to die for a woman. But after a few years, he got over it.
"Alright then."
Although the assistant was worried that his boss would feel bad about the expense, he didn't say anything more and delivered it to the young master. The young master didn't seem surprised or delighted; he just accepted it without much fanfare.
After finishing his busy work these past few days, Shen Kuo invited people out to play again, organizing a gathering at his villa.
Shen Yueze and Ye Qingchi went together, bringing two bottles of red wine, two bottles of whiskey, a drone for his cousin, and cigars. He doesn't smoke cigars, but they are in high demand, so he gives them to others to smoke when discussing business.
Shen Kuo had hired a private chef to cook at his home in advance.
They prefer to have private gatherings at their own homes. While there are many chaotic clubs and entertainment venues outside, and they may offer plenty of glitz and glamour, they are too superficial and chaotic. People who stay in such environments for too long will develop a listless and lethargic aura.
I go occasionally, but most of the time it's a proper dinner party. We don't show off or do drugs. We don't invite a bunch of scantily clad girls to play pornographic games. We just have a simple meal and chat.
Business socializing is a different story. They no longer have the final say on various business dinners. Drinking culture is prevalent in every circle. It's as if you can't have a conversation without drinking or inviting women.
There were many koi in the pond in the courtyard, and the two girls were feeding them with food in their hands.
Shen Kuo felt that was enough. "Alright, alright, don't feed them too much."
Huang Yutong got up from the poolside. "I got lost when I first came in. This place is really too big for you to stay here alone at night. In feng shui, a place that is too big will not gather energy."
"I don't sleep here when I'm at the company."
Shen Kuo sent them the address; it was indeed spacious for one person to live alone.
Zhao Yuhe was playing games on the sofa. "What's wrong? Do you want to find him a mistress? He's been single for quite a while now, and I'm worried about him. It's been so long."
She smiled and said, "Then I'm quite suitable."
Shen Kuo didn't reply. "Didn't you say my brother would be here later? You two can get to know each other."
Huang Yutong is a relatively unknown minor celebrity. She has a pretty face, a lively and flirtatious personality, and is quite open-minded.
Shen Kuo remembered that Wen Yining was from the Film Academy. He guessed that Wen Yining liked this type of girl, so he called over someone similar. They had known each other for quite a while.
Huang Yutong sat down to drink juice, feeling that it was unreliable. With so much money, if he were even good-looking, countless men would be eager to date him. He certainly wouldn't lack girlfriends. She joked, "He's definitely not as handsome as you. You're a distant relative, and you're not even related by the same grandfather."
Shen Kuo was too lazy to explain, "You'll know once you meet him."
While the group was chatting, the auntie who was setting the dishes heard the commotion and went to the door to greet them warmly. They could vaguely hear a man's voice, which sounded very pleasant.
Huang Yutong had no expectations before seeing anyone. She was holding a Häagen-Dazs ice cream and eating it little by little.
Two boys arrived, one of whom was taller, probably over 1.8 meters, wearing a trendy brand and ripped jeans. He had a rather cold expression, glanced around indifferently, and seemed to be in a bad mood. He then greeted the people present and sat down. He didn't say much and exuded a lazy air.
Huang Yutong didn't move her spoon for a long time, staring straight at the other person. He felt the gaze, looked up, showed no emotion, and then calmly looked away, but his eyes were quite penetrating. When they landed on the person, his heart beat faster involuntarily.
She never expected that Shen Kuo's younger brother would be so handsome.
