Chapter 376: Setting Off for Team Building

The Chen family living room.

Under the bright, dazzling chandelier, Chen Shanni was currently lying on the sofa, engrossed in flipping through a book, covered by a gray blanket.

The Unicorn Music Box on the side drifted out the melody of "Castle in the Sky".

Seeing Shen Yan walk in so swaggeringly, Chen Shanni felt shy, yet at the same time, she couldn't help but feel a secret joy; she asked a question she already knew the answer to: "It's so late, why haven't you rested yet?"

"Just finished playing games, came over to keep you company and talk."

Shen Yan's voice was like a steady, low-frequency cannon, full of power and magnetism; it easily pierced through the air and reached straight to the heart. Chen Shanni's earlobes turned slightly hot, and the upturned corners of her mouth directly exposed her most honest inner thoughts.

In truth, Chen Shanni had the heart to participate more in Shen Yan's world and play games with him, but League of Legends was too complex for her to master, and she didn't really like intense games.

When she was little and in computer class, the classmates around her were all playing 4399 mini-games, and she had been equally fond of them; those were some of her few happy times.

"Have you ever played Gold Miner?" Chen Shanni asked for no reason.

Shen Yan understood in a second, so he said: "How could I not have played it? Let's go, let's play a few rounds together."

Chen Shanni was immediately overjoyed and trotted back to her room to turn on the computer.

The two of them just leisurely played the mini-games like that.

After playing Gold Miner, they moved on to Neo Bomberman.

Not until one o'clock in the morning, when sleepiness struck like a tide, did the lights in the bedroom finally go out.

In the time that followed, Shen Yan did not run around outside; he stayed honestly at school attending classes, and in his spare time, he would drag Wang Sicong to play games or accompany Wu Yue'er and Chen Shanni to play everywhere.

Of course, that little wild cat at the factory could not be neglected either.

The stock Guangsheng Nonferrous did not show any flaws; in the face of the national trend, it achieved leapfrog growth.

Everything was developing in a good direction.

In the blink of an eye, ten days passed in a flash; it was Friday night.

According to the plan, Law Class One would be holding a two-day, one-night team-building activity at Sunset Orange Sea over the next two days. Most of the students were camping and staying overnight outside for the first time, and they were all extremely excited, discussing it heatedly in the class group chat.

They were talking about what to bring along to play with.

The girls' dormitory group chat.

Yu Youwei: "@Chen Shanni Shanni, will you be driving there tomorrow?"

Chen Shanni: "I will, I can give you all a ride then."

Yu Youwei: "Thanks! Also, I want to put the speakers and some miscellaneous items in your car."

Chen Shanni readily agreed.

The situation was similar on the boys' side; Lin Yang and the others expressed that they wanted to hitch a ride in Shen Yan's car, and Shen Yan did not refuse either.

Two cars with nine seats total, just enough to pack these people up and take them away.

March 22nd, which was also Shen Yan's birthday.

Early in the morning, the weather didn't act up, which was quite decent; the faint light of dawn broke through the silent darkness, unveiling the prelude to a new day.

After washing up and coming out of the bathroom, Shen Yan bumped head-on into Chen Shanni's pair of autumn-water-clear eyes. She was holding a set of men's attire and said with a charming smile: "I didn't know what to get you, so let this outfit be your birthday present."

Shen Yan smiled slightly, then took the white T-shirt and put it on, draped a yellow plaid shirt over it, and paired it with black casual trousers; the size was a perfect fit.

He looked breathtakingly handsome.

Seeing this, Chen Shanni couldn't help but beam with joy, clearly very satisfied with her own taste.

Chen Shanni still wore no makeup today. Ever since she had been intimate with Shen Yan, those skincare products had no more use; she went out with a bare face, and the head-turning rate on the street was nearly one hundred percent.

Her attire was elegant and graceful—a black camisole dress with a short white jacket over it, fully displaying a ladylike style. Shen Yan stepped forward and gently wrapped his arms around her slender waist; his gaze became both pure and seductive, full of sexual tension.

Although they had been together for a while, Chen Shanni still couldn't resist this kind of gaze; her pretty face turned red, and she shyly lowered her head.

It was precisely this posture that could most easily ignite the flames in Shen Yan's heart.

He raised his hand to lift Chen Shanni's chin and kissed her gently. Chen Shanni's eyes were brimming with moisture, and she then took the initiative to wrap her arms around the back of Shen Yan's neck, cooperating in a self-forgetful manner.

Not until she felt Shen Yan's breathing become increasingly chaotic and the strength of his palms seemed to want to knead her into his own body did Chen Shanni finally come to her senses.

"Don't... don't be like this, we're supposed to leave in a while." She pressed her hands against Shen Yan's chest, her gaze shy and timid.

"I didn't say I was going to do anything, can't I even kiss you?"

As he spoke, Shen Yan went to kiss her delicate, smooth cheeks again. His scorching, hot breath hit her face, draining the strength from Chen Shanni's body bit by bit.

She nearly couldn't stand steady. Shen Yan pressed her against the door wall and bullied this shy little girl for a while longer before finally letting go, satisfied.

Chen Shanni took deep breaths of air, trying her best to calm her restless mood.

Just a little more...

She had almost forgotten everything and was about to sink into an endless abyss with Shen Yan.

This man was truly poisonous; he could always make one's heart flutter with ease.

During breakfast, Wu Yue'er also presented the birthday gift she had prepared.

A pair of high-quality sunglasses.

For both day and night use; they blocked strong light during the day and car lights at night.

Shen Yan accepted them happily and praised: "Not bad, this is exactly what I need for driving."

"As long as you like it; I spent a long time thinking about this."

Receiving the man's affirmation, Wu Yue'er couldn't help but beam with joy.

Breakfast consisted of egg pancakes, rabbit-shaped buns, and hot milk. After a full meal, the three of them were ready to go. They drove to Hangzhou University first to pick up Lin Yang and the others at the supermarket entrance.

The Maybach was a four-seater; the front passenger seat was taken by Wu Yue'er, and Lin Yang and Zhu Baoping sat in the back.

Riding in a luxury car for the first time, Zhu Baoping was like a country bumpkin who had just entered the city; he touched this and looked at that, full of curiosity about every detail inside the car.

"Damn, this seat is so fucking soft!" Zhu Baoping exclaimed.

"And this leather, it feels so comfortable to touch."

Then, he began to observe the environment inside the car; the decorations were exquisitely refined, and every detail displayed high quality and a sense of luxury.

The exquisite wood grain and metal trim made him click his tongue in admiration.

In truth, Lin Yang had never ridden in such a luxury car either, and his heart could not help but fluctuate, yet he found Zhu Baoping's bumpkin-like demeanor even more intolerable.

"I'm telling you, can you restrain yourself? Don't act like you've never seen the world; it's so embarrassing for others to see."
