Chapter 557: Chapter 362: Bandits and Treasure
Shen Yuan looked at the message sent by Mrs. Lin and was just about to ask if it was that bestie from your Moments when the message was suddenly withdrawn.
During this time, Lin Yuchang had been traveling and had posted quite a few photos on her Moments, mostly of scenery, but there were also selfies, including a few with her bestie.
Shen Yuan opened her Moments and found those two pictures to look at them again.
On the left was Lin Yuchang, and on the right was a woman dressed in a beige body-con dress.
Her jet-black hair cascaded over her shoulders, her facial features were bold and charming, giving off a flirtatiously alluring vibe.
The key thing was she even slightly overshadowed Lin Yuchang in stature.
Mrs. Lin was small-boned, a C cup, with a slender waist and slightly protruding hips.
The other woman had a larger frame, and her body-con dress accentuated every curve of her body, her breasts were full and round, while her waist was slim enough to be grasped in hand.
Due to the angle of the photo, the full extent of the derriere was not visible, but from its shape, it seemed to be even wider and rounder than the chest.
Just by looking at the body, one could tell she fit into the category of voluptuous and plump, yet not overly fleshy.
The question was whether the photo was edited or not. Just looking at Mrs. Lin, it was obvious her beauty was unedited, especially her figure.
But with things having reached this point, what’s done is done, what’s the meaning of withdrawing it?
So, Shen Yuan directly sent a message: “I saw it.”
“Yuchang, are you done showering? What did that little puppy say?”
Inside the bathroom, hearing the voice from outside, Lin Yuchang suddenly regretted agreeing to ask Shen Yuan for her.
To Shen Yuan, he probably didn’t care whether or not she brought a friend along; booking an extra room was no big deal for him and even in line with his cheeky nature… he might actually prefer her to bring the bestie.
But for herself, Dai Lu was just too much competition. Over the years, though she hadn’t dated anyone, it was because her standards were too high.
She wouldn’t consider anyone who was older, poorly-built, not handsome, lacking their own career, or had a dreary personality.
In short, she was after young, tall, handsome men with their own businesses performing well and a sense of humor—exactly the Shen Yuan template!
Of course, she had the right attributes too—her family was well-off, she was good-looking with an excellent figure, disciplined with a wide range of interests, and she could afford her own car and house.
If she were to really set her mind on “seducing” Shen Yuan, Lin Yuchang didn’t think he would refuse.
Lin Yuchang knew Shen Yuan had other women, but she really didn’t want to share Shen Yuan with her best friend, and moreover… Dai Lu had never dated, and even had a better figure than herself.
And she had already been divorced… Lin Yuchang was worried that one day Shen Yuan might lose interest in her.
She felt she really had been foolish. Why on earth had she agreed to such a thing?
Fortunately, she had withdrawn the message. As long as Shen Yuan hadn’t seen it, she could just come up with an excuse to explain it to Dai Lu.
But the next second, Lin Yuchang saw the message from Shen Yuan.
Damn, he had seen it. Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on noᴠelfire.net
Lin Yuchang’s heart sank, then she thought, so what if Shen Yuan saw it? He didn’t know who it was or whether she was beautiful or not; she could just bluff her way through.
Before Lin Yuchang had time to gather her thoughts, Shen Yuan had already sent the photo over, with an additional message: “Is it this bestie?”
Oh no, she should never have posted on Moments!
Lin Yuchang wished she could stab herself; what kind of mess was this!
Shen Yuan was like a treasure to her, a treasure not exposed to the world, and Dai Lu was like a robber coveting the treasure.
When a robber encountered a treasure… either they would split it, or Dai Lu would enjoy it all by herself.
Lin Yuchang took a deep breath, feeling suddenly like she had the duty to protect the treasure, she sent back a reply to Shen Yuan: “No, it’s another friend. I’ve thought about it, and it’s not appropriate.”
Shen Yuan: “We’re all family here, no need to speak in riddles. I know it’s her. Come on over; it’s fine, I don’t mind.”
Lin Yuchang’s cheeks immediately flushed with embarrassment; she hadn’t expected to be so easily found out.
But it’s not about you not minding, I mind!
Lin Yuchang gathered her courage and tried again: “Shen Yuan, my friend was actually planning to return to Star City tonight, I just got carried away and spoke without thinking.”
Shen Yuan: “Don’t be a stranger, Yuchang; you didn’t used to be .”
Lin Yuchang was frustrated, stomping her foot as Dai Lu’s voice came from the doorway: “Yuchang, why are you taking so long? You didn’t fall, did you?”
Worried Dai Lu might come in, Lin Yuchang replied swiftly: “I’m coming out now.”
At this point, Lin Yuchang realized the situation couldn’t be undone.
Well then, Dai Lu had been single until now, and if she wanted to be a kept woman, she would’ve done so already.
She was looking for a husband, but Shen Yuan couldn’t give her marriage, so it wasn’t certain they would end up together.
Still, Lin Yuchang felt a sense of loss, as if she were cutting off her own flesh and sent Shen Yuan a reply: “Alright then. We’ll come over later. Is it the same location?”
Exiting the bathroom, Lin Yuchang mustered a smile: “Lulu, he agreed. Let’s go over tonight.”
“Okay, then I’ll pack my bags. Don’t worry, Yuchang, you know my taste, and I would never steal a man from a bestie.”
Lin Yuchang’s lips moved, but she said nothing more.
Meanwhile, Shen Yuan had already arrived at the Aman at Cloud Retreat in his Maybach.
Aman at Cloud Retreat, Bulgari, Capella, J Hotel, known as the four giants of Shanghai’s top luxury hotels.
But when discussing brand and price, Aman at Cloud Retreat undisputedly topped the list.
Among the currently available rooms, the cheapest cost over 7000 a night, while the most expensive was up to 60,000 a night.
