Chapter 342 Their Efforts_3
So he wanted to create the small groups and come out, such as the "teacher-student trio" of Liew Menglu. Seeing one equals seeing three, what a time and worry saver.
Shen Yuan also thought about the Harem living together happily, but that wasn't realistic. Even if they could accept it, they would probably be bickering every day, just looking at Liew Menglu and Qiao Lei was proof enough.
"Brother-in-law."
Chen Xinyu softly called out.
"Hmm?"
"I like you very much too."
After saying this, Chen Xinyu shyly buried her head into Shen Yuan's chest, admitting her feelings took great courage for her.
She also wanted Shen Yuan to stay in her room, but her sister liked him even more, so she surely needed her brother-in-law more.
"Brother-in-law feels the same."
Shen Yuan comfortingly patted her head.
After Chen Xinyu fell asleep, Shen Yuan slipped into Chen Na's room.
As usual, the bed had half the space meticulously left empty, and Shen Yuan tiptoed into it.
However, Chen Na was a light sleeper as always, feeling the movement, she turned over and hugged Shen Yuan, "Shen Yuan, you're here."
"Hmm, I knew you would wake up, I should have slept in the living room."
Shen Yuan whispered.
"It's okay, I wake up easily and fall back asleep just as fast."
Chen Na sat up from the bed, "I'll go draw a bath for you."
Shen Yuan waved his hand, "It's too late, I'll wash in the morning."
"You must feel sticky, it's not comfortable to sleep like that, better wash."
Chen Na still rose from the bed.
"How did you know?"
"Your body not only carries the scent of Xinyu's room, but also her body fragrance and shampoo."
Chen Na blinked, her slender, oval face gazing at Shen Yuan.
Shen Yuan also felt a bit embarrassed. When facing the Lih sisters, if Shen Yuan came out of Lih Meng's room, he would usually go to the balcony to air out, ensuring there were no lingering scents before heading back to Teacher Lih's room.
It just so happened he didn't do that today and was found out right away.
"It's okay, Shen Yuan, in the end... we both belong to you now."
Chen Na's cheeks reddened slightly as she spoke the last part.
With a knowing smile, Shen Yuan then asked, "What about your parents, have you thought about how to explain it to them?"
"My plan is this: not to tell them during the four years Xinyu is at university."
Chen Na brushed her hair back over her shoulder, "After graduation, we'll start to reveal it slowly, preferably letting them realize on their own that Xinyu likes you, then see their reaction. Do you think that's appropriate?"
"Good."
Shen Yuan thought to himself that Old Chen, when facing this situation, could only helplessly accept it.
After all, Old Chen had already received a car and a house from him, naively thinking it was thanks to his eldest daughter, when in fact, Shen Yuan had prepared them as bride prices for his two daughters.
Chen Na had finished running the bath and then called Shen Yuan to soak. While massaging his back and head, she said, "I'll teach all this to Xinyu gradually. In another month, I won't be able to sit like this."
"Good."
"The baby is already over four months old now, I can feel the movements every day, my pregnancy symptoms have lessened a lot..."
Chen Na chattered on that evening, talking a lot with Shen Yuan about Xinyu, the child, the future.
In all that prattle, Shen Yuan felt her intense emotions; maybe Chen Na wasn't even aware of it herself. Wanting to be with someone meant wanting to talk and share endlessly with them.
However, as she continued, Shen Yuan eventually fell asleep in the bathtub.
The next day, Shen Yuan slept until 11 am before getting up. Chen Na couldn't bear to wake him and had pulled the curtains tightly shut.
Now in her mid-pregnancy, cooking and household chores were mostly done by a housekeeper. Chen Na was gradually getting used to the housekeeper, sometimes asking her to come in the morning and noon; sometimes in the afternoon and evening, rarely having her stay all day.
It took Chen Na some time to get used to having an extra person in a home that had only housed family members.
But since Shen Yuan was there for lunch, Chen Na, worried the housekeeper's cooking might not be to his taste, had her just assist while taking charge of the cooking herself.
Shen Yuan was very satisfied with his lunch; whether it was the dishes or the levels of spice and seasoning, everything was just right.
Among the many NPCs, if the class belle was suitable to open a poker coaching class, then Chen Na would be best suited to open a life coaching class.
If those two could combine, it would be simply unbeatable!
Today, Shen Yuan had no other plans, so he spent the entire afternoon at Chen Na's place.
He had wanted to stay another night there, but thinking that the class belle also needed appeasing, and since he had to go to Shanghai the next day, he eventually had to give up on the idea.
In the evening, Ji Ya sent him the flight and hotel information, reminding Shen Yuan what time he needed to leave the next day.
Shen Yuan briefly glanced it over. This time it was business class, probably a medium-sized jet, and the hotel was a Bulgari Bund view suite.
Bulgari was originally a European jewelry brand, and their venture into hotels was a cross-industry move, but they managed quite well, especially since each suite's amenities, from the mattresses to the toiletries, were primarily from their own brand.
The screenshot of the booking and the hotel costs showed a night cost 12,000 yuan.
Shen Yuan clicked his tongue, this was by far the most expensive hotel he had stayed in.
