Chapter 205: Two Suggestions
As the evening lights first flickered on, the entire city was illuminated by a kaleidoscope of colorful lights. Shen Yan took Fang Xiang out for a feast of whole roasted lamb and then bought her a few outfits.
They returned from the commercial street to that dilapidated little bungalow.
The Fang siblings still lived in the front and back rooms, sharing a bathroom. The rooms were chilly, with no Air Conditioner and no heating, relying solely on a double-sided velvet quilt to get through the winter.
Sitting on the bed, Shen Yan reached out to touch the quilt; it was soft, comfortable, and had excellent heat retention. He suddenly said to Fang Xiang, "Living here forever isn't a solution. Find some time to go out and pick out a new place or a second-hand one, the kind you can move into right away. Don't worry about the money."
"Huh?" Fang Xiang was stunned, but seeing the unquestionable expression on Shen Yan's face, she nodded in agreement.
Whatever the man said, went; she just needed to be obedient.
If one could live a good life, who would want to cower in this cramped little room?
Then, the two of them walked into the bathroom together. After a flurry of rustling, the water came "whooshing" down. Fang Xiang, a woman made of water, served Shen Yan like a master, gently washing him.
Shen Yan was served until his heart caught fire, so he also picked up a handful of body wash.
This was called give and take.
Fang Xiang felt her whole body go soft, and she said weakly, "Boss, can we wait until we get back to the room?"
A wicked smile appeared on the corner of Shen Yan's mouth. Just as he was about to reply, he heard a "click," and immediately after, Fang Tian's voice came from beside his ear.
"Sis, are you taking a shower?"
Fang Xiang gave a soft "mm" and told him to go downstairs if he wanted to use the toilet. Fang Tian didn't seem to be in a hurry, but asked with a hint of embarrassment, "Sis, what do you think of Xiao Fang?"
Fang Xiang was slightly taken aback, not understanding what he meant. Shen Yan whispered something in her ear, and Fang Xiang suddenly realized.
"Xiao Tian, you're still young and don't have any savings. I think you should consider such things later."
"But, Sis..."
Seeing the siblings start to chat, Shen Yan couldn't take it anymore. He lowered his head and gently took hold of Fang Xiang's earlobe.
"Mm!" Fang Xiang's legs went weak, and she nearly collapsed to the floor, but fortunately, Shen Yan held her up in time.
She said in a voice barely audible, "Boss, don't do that."
Shen Yan continued to do as he pleased.
The unusual stimulation left Fang Xiang in a state of chaos.
At this moment, Fang Tian said again, "Sis, do you think I should go be a frontline worker? It's a bit tiring, but I could earn five or six thousand a month."
As a packer, his wages were calculated by the piece. Fang Tian could earn about four thousand a month. He wasn't afraid of hardship or fatigue; he just wanted to earn more money while he was young.
Fang Xiang's brain was dizzy at this moment, and she said somewhat powerlessly, "Don't rush into this. Workers have to work over ten hours a day; it's too exhausting. I heard the boss mention something last time; it seems he has other arrangements for you."
"Really?" Fang Tian's voice immediately went up a notch, and he hurriedly asked what it was about.
Fang Xiang was truly furious with this younger brother. He didn't ask sooner or later, but had to ask while she was showering, and there was a guy beside her making trouble.
Her body trembled slightly, and a faint blush, like the evening glow on the horizon, spread across her flawless, suet-like skin.
Just as she was about to speak, Shen Yan suddenly grabbed her wrists, wrapped them around the back of his neck, and swept his large hands under her thighs.
With a little effort, Fang Xiang was lifted into the air.
Feeling the warmth and strength radiating from Shen Yan's chest, Fang Xiang's heart couldn't help but race.
And then...
"Mm!" Fang Xiang's beautiful eyes widened, filled with disbelief.
This is possible too?
This sound caught Fang Tian's attention, and he asked curiously, "Sis, what's wrong?"
"I... I accidentally bumped into something." Fang Xiang looked at Shen Yan with seductive, watery eyes, biting her red lips, trying her best to remain calm.
Since she couldn't stop Shen Yan, she had to turn the faucet handle, amplifying the sound of the rushing water to cover it up.
Fang Tian didn't think much of it and wanted to ask again what Shen Yan had said, but was scolded by Fang Xiang.
"If you have anything to say, say it tomorrow. Can't you see your sister is showering?"
"Oh, oh!" Fang Tian seemed to wake from a dream and then trotted back to his room.
Hearing the sound of the door locking, Fang Xiang's tense nerves finally relaxed. She wrapped her arms around Shen Yan's neck and kissed his hot lips lightly.
The two returned to the room from the bathroom. Having not been entangled with Shen Yan for a long time, Fang Xiang was particularly passionate today, their lips and tongues intertwined, giving and taking.
The battle lasted until one o'clock in the morning before it ceased.
Cuddled in Shen Yan's arms, Fang Xiang felt as if her whole body was falling apart.
She used her fingers to aimlessly draw circles on his solid chest and said lazily, "Boss, Xiao Tian isn't afraid of hardship or fatigue; he just wants to earn more money. Do you have any ideas that could help him?"
"Look around later to see if any garment factories are looking to transfer ownership. I'll have a word with Han Yi and have him take Fang Tian under his wing, then let Fang Tian manage the new factory later."
"Or opening a breakfast shop wouldn't be bad either. It's a bit tiring, but earning over a hundred thousand a year isn't a problem."
After a moment of thought, Shen Yan gave two suggestions.
Fang Xiang's eyes lit up immediately; both ideas were very good.
One was to be a manager, with work that was easy and stable; the other was to be self-employed, and the investment for a breakfast shop wasn't expensive—just spend some money to learn the skills.
She would discuss it with her brother later.
At seven o'clock the next morning, Shen Yan returned to the Danqingyuan residential complex. From afar, he saw a tall woman standing by the fountain in the center of the complex, looking at the bubbling spray and the red koi that occasionally poked their heads out to breathe fresh air, a soft curve forming at the corners of her mouth.
"Beep!"
A horn blast pulled Wu Yue'er straight back to reality.
After getting into the car, Wu Yue'er took off her green down jacket, revealing the khaki hoodie underneath. Her full chest was straining against the fabric, her slightly curly hair fell naturally from her shoulders, and she wore thick black stockings on her lower body, setting off a pair of long, slender jade legs.
She pouted and looked at Shen Yan with a resentful gaze, complaining, "To think you were willing to crawl out of your nest of tenderness so early in the morning. What, did the enchantress not suck you dry?"
Yesterday, it was clearly agreed that they would set off for Shanghai that night to stroll through the beautiful scenery of The Bund, but instead, Shen Yan suddenly changed his mind halfway through, saying they had to leave early this morning.
Needless to say, he must have gone to accompany that little enchantress again.
