I am not just a tycoon

Chapter 73 A Man's Mouth, A Liar's Ghost



Shen Yuan glanced at the time; it was already 10:40 PM, and the dormitory doors had closed. He pondered for a moment before finally dialing Chen Na's number.

"Hey, Nana, we can't get back to our dorm because the doors are closed. I'll sleep over at your place tonight."

"....."

"No, really, they're shut. The International campus dorms lock up at 10:30 PM."

"....."

"Get a room outside? No need to waste that money."

"....."

"Don't worry, I won't do anything tonight, just cuddle."

"....."

After hanging up the phone, Shen Yuan prepared to call a Didi. However, he suddenly remembered something and went to the convenience store to buy a can of beer, drinking most of it and sprinkling the rest all over himself.

Today, he rode in the same car with Lih Xiao, and at night, he had close contact with Lin Yuchang, so his clothes were inevitably laced with a perfume scent.

Shen Yuan certainly didn't want to be caught out like that night with Fang Minhui.

He sniffed his T-shirt to make sure there was no other woman's scent before he started to call a Didi.

"Dong dong"

Twenty minutes later, Shen Yuan stood at Chen Na's front door, knocking twice before a pajama-clad Chen Na hurried out to open it.

However, as soon as Chen Na opened the door, she was hit by a strong smell of beer, and her brows furrowed unconsciously: "How much did you drink?"

"About six."

Shen Yuan replied casually.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

After entering, he couldn't help but glance at Chen Na, who had finished washing up. Although she was dressed in a long-sleeved pajama set, the exposed skin on her neck was pale and smooth, and the soft cotton still outlined her slender figure.

Chen Na didn't ask whom he had been drinking with, but seeing Shen Yuan like this made her worry: "Do you feel dizzy?"

"A little."

Shen Yuan sat on the small sofa, massaging his temples. Earlier in the evening, he had drunk white liquor with Old Kong and Old Lui, then red with Lin Yuchang, and finally half a can of beer. His stomach was churning now.

Those who drink frequently know that mixing different types of alcohol can get you drunk easily and is also harsh on the stomach.

"You go and take a shower first. I'll make you a sobering-up tea."

Chen Na handed Shen Yuan a clean towel and then took out her phone to check on Xiao Hongshu how to make sobering-up tea.

She had never made it before.

Ten minutes later, Shen Yuan walked out of the bedroom bare-chested. When Chen Na saw him, she hurriedly covered her eyes: "Why aren't you wearing clothes?"

Shen Yuan couldn't help but laugh: "My clothes and pants got wet from the beer, and I don't have anything else to change into....."

Chen Na, too embarrassed to look, turned off the room light and switched on a small lamp instead, then handed the cooled sobering-up tea to Shen Yuan: "Take a sip first and see if it's too hot. I just tested it."

Shen Yuan took it with both hands, finding it was a thick ginger tea.

In the past, when Old Shen socialized outside, Li Hongjuan would always make him a cup of ginger tea.

He never expected that one day he, too, would be treated this way.

Chen Na tilted her head, gazing elsewhere: "I don't have any clothes you can wear. Do you plan to sleep like that?"

"What's the problem? I won't catch a cold under the covers."

"....."

Chen Na ignored him and went straight back to her bedroom.

Watching Chen Na's charming back, Shen Yuan couldn't help but wonder. They'd been open and honest with each other before, so why so shy all the time?

After finishing the ginger tea, Shen Yuan turned off the lamp in the living room and tiptoed into the bedroom. Just as he was about to slip under the covers, he didn't expect Chen Na, vigilant, to wrap herself up in the blanket and point to the other side, saying, "You sleep on that blanket."

"???"

Shen Yuan didn't expect Chen Na's strong reaction: "Nana, have we lost all that trust between us?"

Chen Na pouted her cute little mouth: "You said it yourself, just cuddles, and you can still cuddle without sharing the same blanket."

Shen Yuan wasn't in a hurry. Chen Na was inherently conservative and couldn't let go when it came to these matters, but during this long night, there was no escaping his grasp.

The previous two times had been a matter of pushing and pulling, but Shen Yuan didn't like to always force things. He wanted Chen Na to accept this from the bottom of her heart.

So Shen Yuan slipped into another quilt, but after half a minute of suffering, he immediately dismissed the foolish idea.

Damn, what kind of pretense of innocence am I trying to pull off?

Seeing Chen Na still on her guard, Shen Yuan pretended to sneeze and rubbed his nose, saying, "Nana, the air conditioning is too cold."

"Ah..."

"I'll adjust it."

Chen Na sat up from under the covers, preparing to look for the air conditioning remote control, but Shen Yuan seized the opportunity, immediately slipping in like an eel.

"No need to adjust, if we share a quilt, it won't be cold."

Chen Na turned her head, her face instantly filled with dismay, "Shen Yuan..."

"I'll just hold you, won't do a thing."

Shen Yuan, hugging Chen Na, said, "Nana, you know my character."

"Your character... do you even have one..."

Chen Na suddenly remembered the first time he had tricked her saying he came up for a "sip of water", the second time a "training session", and this time the excuse was even more clumsy, claiming a hug without doing anything.

So infuriating!

It's common knowledge that things can easily escalate when sharing a bed.

Both players were ready, and even though the red team hadn't warmed up yet, the blue team insisted on starting the game.

The blue team, with its abundant experience, started by enlivening the atmosphere, getting things stirring before probing the red team's defenses from the perimeter.

...

It must be said, the red team needs more training, so they can find a better state in the game.

After the game ended, the blue team was still not satisfied, insisting on an extra match, and despite the red team's strong protest, they were compelled to start under the blue team's pressure.

The overtime match between the two lasted until after one o'clock in the morning...

At ten in the morning, Shen Yuan struggled out of bed, his head still spinning with a hangover, and instinctively reached out beside him, but the soft body from last night was no longer there.

Shen Yuan sat up in bed and noticed a new set of clothes on the bedside table, and there was also a message from Chen Na on his phone.

"I've gone to the café, bought you a new set of clothes, your usual T-shirts and jeans, plus a pair of socks, by the shoe cabinet."

"Dirty clothes washed, but not dry yet."

"Breakfast's on the steamer, buns and porridge; if you're cold when you wake up, heat it up for yourself."

Shen Yuan felt a warmth in his heart and was nearly moved to tears.

Damn, where can you find such a good woman?

A reward, there must be a reward!

Shen Yuan thought to himself, last time I helped Nana buy a house, this time why not buy her a car?

Nana's still driving a Fit, and although that car is good enough for getting around, who doesn't love a luxury car?

For Shen Yuan, with the triple cashback, it's a lucrative deal.

Aside from Chen Na's message, Shen Yuan also received a video from Liew Menglu.

This time Liew Menglu tried something new; last time she was power walking on a treadmill, and this time she was on a spin bike. With the more intense workout, her chest and slender neck glistened with sweat, which, along with her visually impactful "headlights", made it tough for Shen Yuan to handle.

"Skinny dog, when are you coming to the gym, waiting for you at Leke~"

The video also carried Liew Menglu's energetic stylized voice.

Shen Yuan shook his head; he really shouldn't watch such things so early in the morning, and Shen Yuan even felt a bit sorry for Nana, with a faint sense of guilt in his heart.

After all, Liew Menglu is Nana's "good" best friend.

Why do I feel like this?

It's bullshit!

It's clearly Liew Menglu seducing me!

Shen Yuan quickly shook his head, trying not to think about things he shouldn't, thinking to himself that he's a scumbag, not to be restrained by such moral concepts.
