When Lin Kuang returned from his shower, he was taken aback to find four more women in the room—Li Yingying, Yao Wenwen, Shen Yanyu, and Shen Yanxia.

At that moment, Mu Wan and Huo Feifei were chatting happily with the other women. The atmosphere was so harmonious that it left Lin Kuang completely dumbfounded.

"Ahem, um, you’re all here?" Lin Kuang asked awkwardly, scratching his head.

Hearing this, the women all turned to him with faint smiles, but each wore a different expression, leaving Lin Kuang unsure how to react.

"Ahem, so, what are you all talking about?" he asked, still feeling awkward.

"Nothing much. Just talking about you," Mu Wan said, her big eyes twinkling as she stared at Lin Kuang, making his skin crawl.

"Ah? What’s there to talk about me? Didn’t you want to go shopping? Let’s go buy some clothes," Lin Kuang said quickly.

"Yeah, let’s all go together. We haven’t seen each other in so long. We can have dinner together tonight," Mu Wan added with a smile.

Hearing this, Lin Kuang naturally had no objections, and the other women simply nodded in agreement.

"Ahem, then let’s get going. The mall should be open by now," Lin Kuang said again.

"Sure, let’s go," Mu Wan said, gesturing for the women to head out.

In an instant, Lin Kuang was left alone in the room, feeling quite frustrated. "What’s going on? How could they just leave me behind?" he muttered. He quickly walked out of the room and drove his car to catch up with the two vehicles ahead.

Eventually, the group arrived at the mall.

For women, shopping is always an activity they are passionate about, and Mu Wan and her friends were no exception.

As for Lin Kuang, he followed behind them, his gaze fixed on the elegant figures ahead. The view is still pretty nice.

Gradually, Lin Kuang found himself carrying more and more shopping bags, and his credit card was swiped nonstop. Since he was with the women, Lin Kuang naturally wouldn’t let them spend their own money—especially since he was a wealthy man now.

They shopped until evening before finally returning to the parking lot, having skipped lunch and settled for a few light snacks instead.

As for Lin Kuang, he was completely exhausted, his hands full of bags. He had no idea whose clothes were in them. His only jobs were to carry the bags and swipe his card, so he didn’t have to worry about anything else.

"So, are we done shopping?" Lin Kuang asked with a sheepish smile after loading all the bags into his car.

"Yeah, pretty much. Unless... you haven’t had enough?" Mu Wan asked with a teasing smile, glancing at him.

Hearing this, Lin Kuang frantically waved his hands. How could it not be enough? Any more of this, and I’ll die!

"That’s enough, that’s enough! We’re all hungry. Can we please go eat now?" Lin Kuang pleaded. I really don’t want to keep shopping. This is an absolute death march.

"What’s wrong with you? Are you getting impatient just from shopping with us?" Mu Wan asked irritably.

"Ah, no, not at all! I’m really happy to go shopping with you all. How could I be impatient? Wan’er, you’re misunderstanding me," Lin Kuang said with an air of earnest righteousness.

"Tsk, stop playing dumb. Who can’t see through your little act?" Rolling her eyes at Lin Kuang, Mu Wan huffed.

"Er, that’s really not it," Lin Kuang said, looking deeply wronged.

"Hmph. Let’s go eat," Mu Wan said, still annoyed.

At her words, the group drove off and found a restaurant. It wasn’t large, but it was quite famous in Yanjing.

They found a private room, and after ordering, they began to chat. As the conversation flowed, the topic naturally shifted to Lin Kuang.

Lin Kuang kept his head down and drank his water, pretending he hadn’t heard a thing. After all, I’m not an idiot. Speaking up now would be incredibly foolish. However, even though he tried to stay quiet, he couldn’t stop others from questioning him.

And sure enough, Mu Wan spoke up. "Lin Kuang, if you keep playing mute, do you believe I’ll throw you out?"

"Ah? What? What happened?" Lin Kuang looked up and asked in a hurry, appearing utterly bewildered, as if he had no idea what was going on.

"Keep pretending! Go on, keep faking it, you bastard!" Mu Wan glared at him, her voice tinged with anger.

"Er, Wan’er, you’ve got me wrong," Lin Kuang said, looking aggrieved. "I was just thinking about something else. I didn’t hear what you all said."

"Cut the crap. As if anyone would believe you, you bastard. Everyone is here. You’ve already bullied Yingying, and Feifei couldn’t escape your clutches. So what about Yanyu? This girl has liked you for a very long time. You owe her a straight answer about this."

Mu Wan said calmly, glancing at Lin Kuang.

At her words, Shen Yanyu’s pretty face flushed red, and Lin Kuang felt a bit awkward. This Wan’er is so fierce, a total tomboy! But I really like it.

But with so many people here, this is a really difficult question to answer. Besides, I have no idea what Mu Wan, Xu Yingying, and the others are thinking. What if this is all a trap?

"Ahem, um, Wan’er, are you serious?" Lin Kuang asked cautiously.

"Obviously. Do I look like I’m in the mood to joke with you?" Mu Wan said irritably.

"Uh, I guess not," Lin Kuang mumbled.

Seeing Lin Kuang so thoroughly intimidated by Mu Wan, the other women couldn’t help but snicker to themselves. He was usually so arrogant, but in front of Mu Wan, he was like a mouse before a cat. It was a perfect example of someone meeting their match.

"Hey, hurry up and answer. Why are you dawdling?" Mu Wan prompted when Lin Kuang remained silent.

"Geez, Wan’er, what’s the rush? You’re more worried about this than I am!" Lin Kuang said irritably. This is just miserable.

"Cut the crap and answer," Mu Wan repeated, giving him no chance to breathe.

Seeing this, Lin Kuang couldn’t help but roll his eyes and turn his gaze to the blushing Shen Yanyu.

I’m not an idiot; I’ve noticed Shen Yanyu’s feelings for me all along. It was just that back then, my mind was completely set on Mu Wan, and I didn’t pay attention to anyone else around me. No matter what Shen Yanyu did, I remained unmoved. Things are different now, though. As I see it, you only live once. Instead of being timid and hesitant, it’s better to live freely and boldly.

"Yanyu, are you sure you really want to be with me? Of course, you should also know... that my list of women is a little long."

Saying this in front of so many beautiful women, Lin Kuang, despite his thick skin, couldn’t help but feel his face flush slightly.
