Li Zhiyan truly felt just how aggressive Aunt Lai could be when drunk.
Even He Yanrong, the seasoned Madam of Century Palace, couldn’t hold her ground.
Indeed, any normal woman would struggle to withstand Aunt Lai’s cheeky remarks.
But this only made Li Zhiyan like Lai Feifei even more.
A drunk Aunt Lai was always so adorable.
"Lai Feifei, I think you need to quit drinking. You’re way too flirty when you’re drunk!"
"You handle it yourself then!"
"That’ll have to wait till nightti! As his second aunt, I think you should help him out right now."
Listening to the exchange between Lai Feifei and He Yanrong, Li Zhiyan could feel his blood rushing faster.
At such close proximity, he could even catch a whiff of He Yanrong’s perfu.
After a few more minutes, He Yanrong finally lay down and summoned a female masseuse to work on her feet.
During all this, Lai Feifei’s flirty banter kept coming non-stop.
This left Li Zhiyan’s heart rate in shambles, as Aunt Lai’s words were certainly entertaining...
But executing what she said—now that was a whole different story.
Shen Hongi lay off to the side, her lingering glances at Li Zhiyan betraying a sour feeling that wouldn’t go away.
She couldn’t shake the thought that Li Zhiyan and Lai Feifei were getting way too close...
Would their relationship eventually develop into sothing romantic?
There was no way she could stand idly by and watch soone she cared about stray down the wrong path.
After a while, Li Zhiyan excused himself, saying he was going to the restroom, and stepped out of the private room.
Outside near the restroom, he unexpectedly saw Mia, dressed provocatively, wandering around.
When Mia noticed Li Zhiyan coming out, she started sizing him up. At that mont, the unrestrained aura of Li Zhiyan ca fully into her view.
This sparked her interest in him.
The clientele that typically ca for foot massages didn’t have the sa innocent charm as this young man, which truly moved her.
"Willst du wirklich keinen Sex mit deiner Schwester haben? Sex ohne Kondom ist sehr komfortabel."
Li Zhiyan: "I’m really not interested, thank you, Sis."
Mia wasn’t ready to give up just yet.
Li Zhiyan reluctantly replied, "Sis, I already have soone I like."
He didn’t expect this foreign temptress to take a liking to him, but truth be told, Li Zhiyan had no interest in masseuses at all.
"Okay, das ist schade, Schwester mag dich wirklich."
As Li Zhiyan walked away, Mia called out after him: "Schwester kann jederzeit Sex mit dir haben, aber sie erlaubt dir nur, alleine ohne Kondom zu sein."
Feeling overwheld by this woman, Li Zhiyan simply left.
Although he was relatively open-minded, he genuinely had no interest in masseuses; they weren’t worth the trouble for him.
Now, if it were Aunt Shen, he’d have no hesitations at all.
...
At 10:30, Shen Hongi glanced at the ti.
Feeling it was ti, she said, "Let’s go, Xiao Yan, Feifei—I’ll drive you two ho."
Li Zhiyan’s thoughts, which had been wandering, snapped back to reality at Shen Hongi’s words.
"Alright, Aunt Shen," he responded.
On the ride ho, Lai Feifei promptly fell asleep. Having had a few more cocktails earlier, she skipped her usual flirty chatter, leaving Li Zhiyan feeling a little bored.
"Aunt Shen, if you ever need to translate anything, just give a call. My job is flexible, so I can drop by anyti."
Li Zhiyan increasingly felt that the job arranged by Lai Feifei was truly heaven-sent!
Flexible hours, high salary, great benefits.
The only potential downside was the KPI—a hurdle that could only be ignored if you had ironclad connections; otherwise, you’d be let go.
"Alright, Xiao Yan. Auntie will definitely call you if I need help."
As she spoke, Shen Hongi couldn’t help but recall how smoothly and fluently Li Zhiyan had conversed in German with Mia earlier.
The thought amazed her—Li Zhiyan wasn’t even 21, German wasn’t his major, and yet he had mastered the language to that level. It was incredible.
Her imagination conjured an image of this hardworking boy, from a poor family, burning the midnight oil to excel.
Her fondness for him couldn’t help but grow a bit more.
As usual, the two of them carried Lai Feifei to her bed before Shen Hongi drove Li Zhiyan ho.
As she left, she kept calling him her "little treasure."
Downstairs at his apartnt building, Shen Hongi stopped in front of Li Zhiyan again.
"Xiao Yan, your Aunt Lai isn’t really like this most of the ti."
"Around those middle-aged n, she’s always well-behaved."
"It’s probably because you’re the only younger person in our social circle, so she teases you like a kid."
"Don’t take what she says seriously, and sotis it’s better not to respond."
"I understand, Aunt Shen."
In that mont, Li Zhiyan felt a small spark of hope. Aunt Shen bringing this up unprompted—it was clearly a bit of jealousy on her part.
He realized the key to being with Aunt Shen...
Might just lie with Aunt Lai!
"Alright then, Auntie will head off now."
"Xiao Yan, Auntie still hopes you’d consider letting take you as my godson. Let know anyti."
Shen Hongi ruffled his hair gently. She had never admired a young man this much before!
After the A6 drove away, Li Zhiyan slowly regained his composure and made his way upstairs.
"I really do feel like I’ve joined a Shanghai Auntie circle!"
"Shanghai housewives..."
Taking a glance at the ti, Li Zhiyan found himself eagerly looking forward to the updates for tomorrow.
He knew that this was where his greatest life opportunities truly lay.
Back at ho, gazing at the empty living room with just a fridge left behind, Li Zhiyan couldn’t help but feel exasperated with Shang Shunsheng and Liu Yan, the couple he shared the place with.
If not for the utter lack of space in the master bedroom.
Even the fridge might have been taken away by them.
Turning on his computer, Li Zhiyan resud studying, planning to stay up until midnight.
At 12:00, the information updated right on schedule.
"The owner of the second private supermarket on Ningnan Fourth Road is looking for a new supplier. His minimum price is as follows..."
"Liu Jinxin lost face among his colleagues, so he’s plotting to ruin your reputation and have you fired."
"CNM!"
Li Zhiyan blurted out, though he thought to himself he wasn’t swearing at anyone.
"Go to this lottery store and purchase this specific scratch ticket—it will win you 3,000 yuan."
Reading the new tip, Li Zhiyan couldn’t help but grin.
With the help of future insights and knowing bottom-line prices in advance...
Li Zhiyan easily secured his first order, opening a new client account for the company.
As long as he closed three new accounts a month, his KPI would be t.
With insider tips every day, his dream of establishing a stable life in Shanghai grew ever closer to reality.
A few days later, his savings had reached 15,000 yuan. This fast pace of earning made Li Zhiyan feel ecstatic every day!
He even received several additional tips for leveraging the information.
This filled him with hope for the future.
However, every ti he saw Liu Jinxin at work, he still felt a wave of disgust.
He’d often hear Liu Jinxin badmouthing him to female colleagues from a distance. Using his so-called "gentlemanly" theories about how n should behave, Liu Jinxin even managed to form a clique of "close female friends" at the office.
Li Zhiyan, however, didn’t bother retaliating. It wasn’t worth it to beat him up; after the previous drama, he’d learned to restrain himself.
In a society governed by the rule of law, one must abide by legal boundaries.
anwhile, Shang Shunsheng and Liu Yan had fallen eerily silent when they encountered him these past few days.
And Zhao Shumin, the quarrelso one, glared at him with eyes sharper than ever every ti they crossed paths. Li Zhiyan had an uncanny feeling...
That Zhao Shumin wanted to tear his clothes apart in revenge. It made him regret his earlier misplaced kindness toward her.
Maybe he should’ve ripped her mask off and retaliated savagely!
As for Xu Qianqian, she took to mocking him in their group chat daily. It was clear to Li Zhiyan just how much animosity this woman had toward him.
Still, he wasn’t in a hurry—there would be plenty of opportunities for payback down the line!
Four days passed, and Li Zhiyan gradually adapted to Shanghai’s bustling urban life. With his newfound "golden finger,"
he truly felt that the future held boundless hope.
At midnight, having recently finished studying French, Li Zhiyan used his mind to summon another intelligence update.
"The foreign CEO of the Pudong Branch will visit the company in the morning."
"At 9:30 PM, when Shen Hongi and Lai Feifei are out for a walk, Shen Hongi—wearing high heels—will accidentally twist her ankle. An ice pack and massage can provide imdiate relief."
