I am not just a tycoon-Chapter 222 - 221: Have you finished reading? Let me improve as well.
Chen Na had no idea that there were two extra people hidden in the closet, and she firmly decided to give Shen Yuan a birthday present he would never forget.
Sister Ji Ya sat in the corner of the closet and couldn’t help but click her tongue in admiration, truly worthy of being sisters.
The older sister taught the younger through live demonstration, no longer requiring Mr. Shen to train her hands-on in the future.
But should I learn it myself?
After all, I will be Mr. Shen’s live-in assistant in the future, and that "life" should probably be a good one.
Moreover, since Miss Chen Na holds such an important place in Mr. Shen’s heart, that must mean she’s really good at it.
She looked resentfully at Chen Xinyu, thinking to herself that her sister could at least leave some room for her, as she too wanted to make progress.
Chen Xinyu was completely oblivious to Ji Ya’s gaze; her focus was entirely on the world outside the closet.
Peering through the crack, the gleam in her eyes was as if she had discovered a new continent.
Her expressions and body language were rich with variety; she occasionally would gasp in surprise or cover her mouth with her hand, while her legs would alternately tighten and relax.
"Sister, aren’t you disgusted… even there you can…"
"So it turns out that you can do it like that; if I were to try, brother-in-law would probably feel even better, right?"
"Ah? Even with the legs…"
"Ah? Sister, did you just swallow the milk directly?"
Chen Xinyu blushed as she watched, her breathing becoming rapid. Fortunately, she covered her mouth; otherwise, sounds would have definitely escaped.
Seeing Chen Xinyu’s expressions, Ji Ya’s curiosity was piqued. What exactly was going on out there?
Shen Yuan probably had no idea that Chen Xinyu was secretly learning in the closet—if he knew, he certainly wouldn’t want Chen Xinyu learning from Chen Na.
She should be learning from Fang Minhui, after all, the class belle is the true hexagonal warrior.
Chen Na’s cheeks were already flushed with the color of apples. Qianqian stood up, took a tissue, and wiped the milk from her mouth before looking at Shen Yuan with grievance, "Why is there so much today?"
Shen Yuan said with a smile, "Just replenishing your protein."
Chen Na blushed even deeper and didn’t reply. She hugged Shen Yuan again and then said, "I’ll go back first, you should also rest early."
"Okay, go ahead."
Shen Yuan patted Chen Na’s perky buttocks.
Five minutes after Chen Na left, Shen Yuan went to open the closet: "Come out."
As the room’s light fell upon Chen Xinyu’s face, Shen Yuan realized her complexion was flushed red, spreading to her neck and chest.
And when she struggled to stand up, Shen Yuan also noticed that at the spot where she had been sitting, there was a puddle…
?
Did the little sister-in-law just voyeur?
Voyeurism aside, she also…
Shen Yuan turned away, pretending not to see, and when Ji Ya stepped out of the closet, she too saw the residue.
She inwardly sighed, realizing the scope of what had just happened must’ve been quite something for Chen Xinyu to react that way.
After her immersive experience, Chen Xinyu only felt awkward facing Shen Yuan and Ji Ya.
She was already feeling guilty for sneaking over to brother-in-law’s place in the dead of night, not to mention that there was a "companion in misfortune" Sister Ji Ya in the closet with her.
Huh?
It only now occurred to Chen Xinyu to wonder, what was Sister Ji Ya doing there?
Ji Ya knew Chen Xinyu would have questions, so she took the initiative to explain, "Mr. Shen was a bit tired today, so I came to give him a massage. I hid in the closet myself because I was afraid you’d misunderstand; I didn’t expect your sister to come too."
Ji Ya willingly took the heat for Shen Yuan. Since she had decided to be Mr. Shen’s life assistant, she was ready to embrace her role fully.
Chen Xinyu half-understood and nodded slightly, thinking that Sister Ji Ya’s explanation had holes in it; why would a massage be this late? And there’s a spa room in the suite that could also have been used.
Plus, hiding in a closet… unless she had something to hide like me, why would she?
Chen Xinyu was indeed innocent but not dumb; she quickly realized many issues but didn’t delve into them, as she too had a guilty conscience.
"Brother-in-law, Sister Ji Ya, could you keep this a secret for me? I don’t want my sister to know," Chen Xinyu said.
This was what Chen Xinyu worried about most, but Ji Ya inwardly sighed.
Child, your sister already knows, she’s just turning a blind eye, that’s all.
Shen Yuan decided to carry on with the act, patting Chen Xinyu on her tender shoulder, "Don’t worry, I won’t say a word."
"Mr. Shen, do you need help with the massage tonight? If not, I’ll get going," Ji Ya asked considerately.
"No need, some other time," Shen Yuan waved his hand.
"Sorry, brother-in-law…"
Chen Xinyu felt guilty for disturbing Shen Yuan’s tranquility and said so.
Ji Ya left the room to the quasi-siblings, bowing slightly before tiptoeing out of the bedroom.
Shen Yuan chuckled, "It’s all right."
Chen Xinyu bit her lip, her head bowed, and in a voice as quiet as a mosquito, she asked, "Then, brother-in-law… will you still check my injury?"
?
Shen Yuan couldn’t help but look at her, but Chen Xinyu immediately regretted saying it and quickly shook her head, "Brother-in-law, I was just joking just now, sorry."
"I... I’m leaving now…"
Chen Xinyu then hastily left.
As Shen Yuan watched Chen Xinyu’s charming retreating figure, he thought to himself that he was quite good at checking injuries, being an old traditional Chinese medicine doctor who had cultivated for years.
Hmm?
Feel-good Index increased again?
At that moment, Shen Yuan suddenly realized that Chen Xinyu’s Feel-good Index toward him had risen to 72.
Watching a live broadcast can also increase the Feel-good Index?
Shen Yuan glanced at the remnants in the wardrobe and thoughtfully stroked his chin....
...
The next morning, the group of four had breakfast at the hotel. Apart from Chen Xinyu, whose expression was a bit unnatural and whose gaze somewhat evasive, both Chen Na and Ji Ya showed no particular change.
After breakfast, the four set off for Yulong Snow Mountain. Each person carried a bag packed with a down jacket, high-purity oxygen cylinders, oral solution for relieving altitude sickness, a thermos, and some snacks to replenish energy.
Chen Na wasn’t fit to climb too high, and since Ji Ya had already been there twice, the two of them rested at an altitude of over 2,000 meters. Meanwhile, Shen Yuan and Chen Xinyu continued to climb.
Reaching an altitude of 4,500 meters, Shen Yuan was still in good physical condition, but Chen Xinyu was struggling a bit. Shen Yuan also worried that going higher would result in altitude sickness.
So, at the 4,500-meter marker, the two took a picture together and snapped a few more photos, then they descended the mountain.
After coming down and regrouping with Chen Na and Ji Ya, the three visited Blue Moon Valley at the foot of the mountain, a place said to bear the nickname "Little Jiuzhaigou."

That evening, the group went shopping in the ancient town. Under the night sky, the ancient town was especially vibrant, filled with various colorful flowers and dazzling lights.
Chen Na and Chen Xinyu bought quite a few things along the way, including accessories for Shen Xuan and Ms. Li, some food for Old Chen and his wife, and some ethnic minority clothing.
Shen Yuan, lagging a few steps behind, instructed Ji Ya, who was carrying large and small bags, "After we return tomorrow, I’d like you to help me buy some more things in Licheng, including but not limited to local specialties, accessories, ethnic minority clothing, and just handle the rest as you see fit."

"How much should I prepare?" asked Ji Ya.
Shen Yuan mentally counted: Fang Minhui, sisters Lih Xiao and Lih Meng, Liew Menglu, Su Xuewei, Lin Yuchang, Long Jinghan, Qiao Lei.
Without thinking, it doesn’t seem like much, but upon counting, Shen Yuan himself was startled. Apart from the sisters Chen Na and Xinyu, there were as many as nine others.
"Nine sets, include those three items I just mentioned in each set, and try to ensure that the items in each set don’t overlap. As for the budget, plan on spending 20,000 per person."
"Um... okay," Ji Ya replied, her scalp tingling at the thought. She knew Mr. Shen had many women in his life, but she never expected there to be so many.
That didn’t even include the Chen sisters right in front of them. If she counted them too... Ji Ya felt overwhelmed, realizing that even at 20,000 per person, the total for nine would be 180,000.
"Actually, make it 11 sets," Shen Yuan added, almost forgetting his secretary Fu Yingzi and setting aside an extra set just in case there were any additions.
As for the things for his parents and Shen Xuan, it was best to let Nana take care of it.
Shen Yuan thought it over again, "Also, prepare some souvenirs and local specialties. For these, you can work with a budget of 500 per person, and let’s do 10 sets of those as well."
Shen Yuan had planned these items for the company’s management, so there was no need to buy too many.
Ji Ya nodded and replied, "All right, Mr. Shen, I’ve noted it down. Once the procurement is done tomorrow, just send me the address and I’ll arrange to have them mailed to you."
"Okay."
Having arranged these things, Shen Yuan also thought to himself, he had unwittingly acquired so many NPCs.
If the Feel-good Index were divided into two levels, one being over 90 and the other being below 90, currently only Chen Na, Fang Minhui, and Liew Menglu had exceeded 90.
The closest one to 90 among the others was Teacher Lih Xiao at 79.
It seemed that after returning, he would also need to accelerate the development of the NPCs,
considering the generous rewards that exploded out when the Feel-good Index reached 90 previously.
The triple cashback also needed to be worked on. His available cash flow was over 30 million. If he mentioned this, others would definitely not believe it.
In other people’s eyes, Shen Yuan was someone with a cash flow of over a hundred million.
The next morning, after the four of them had finished touring Lugu Lake and had lunch, they set off for the airport.
Ji Ya dropped the three off at Sanyi Airport and then said to Shen Yuan, "Mr. Shen, I have instructed the driver to come for the Alphard. Additionally, regarding the items you asked me to purchase yesterday, I have prepared 11 lists and sent them to you. If you need any adjustments, feel free to tell me."
Shen Yuan smiled, "No need, I trust your judgement. I have transferred the money to you, remember to check your account for the receipt."
"Mhm, mhm."
Ji Ya nodded her head and then showed an enthusiastic smile: "Little Ya wishes you a pleasant journey, and Southern Yunnan looks forward to welcoming you again."
Shen Yuan was slightly taken aback; this was somewhat reminiscent of their first meeting, when Ji Ya was just as sincere and professional.
He thought that having this life assistant not only saved him a lot of trouble but also allowed him to hear the sweet "Mr. Shen, Little Ya wishes you a smooth day at work and success in all your endeavors" every day when he stepped out.
Pretty nice.
"Thanks, you have worked hard too."
Shen Yuan waved to her.
Ji Ya bowed slightly, greeted Chen Xinyu and Chen Na, and then left the airport.
Inside the VIP lounge of the airport, Chen Na sipped her hot tea and said, "Caretaker Ji is quite meticulous in her work, and she has good emotional intelligence. She is quite suitable for this job."
Shen Yuan hummed in agreement, "I have already made her my life assistant."
This was within Chen Na’s expectations since making Ji Ya their guide and driver for the past few days had been her idea.
Her initial intention was also to observe Ji Ya over these days.
In fact, she had her own selfish motives. With Shen Yuan’s financial capability, it was only a matter of time before he would have his own female assistant.
Especially since a life assistant is one of the closest people to someone.
Rather than having Shen Yuan find some female assistants she didn’t know at all, it seemed better to have Ji Ya, with whom a few days’ rapport had been established, become Shen Yuan’s assistant.
Of course, whether or not to retain her ultimately depended on Shen Yuan’s decision.
