“Do you like it? 1 got it for you,” He Huai stated.
Shen Wan held it in her hand, examined it for a moment, then shook her head. “I want to exchange it for a black one.”
“Why? Pink suits you so well.” He spoke softly, his voice warm and gentle.
“Black is cooler.”
“…Okay.”
In the end, Shen Wan got what she wanted. He Huai shrugged, appearing helpless, but deep down, he felt a sweet satisfaction. It seemed like he understood her even better now: she wasn’t just a fragile young girl; she had an independent streak.
They bought almost twenty coffee mugs, and each one came with a hefty price tag. He Huai swiftly used his card, provided the delivery address, and then departed with Shen Wan.
Afterward, they ventured into a clothing store that offered both men’s and women’s clothing. He Huai not only indulged himself but also encouraged Shen Wan to choose outfits that would please him visually. For instance…
“Lace seems nice, these sequins are lovely, and what about a fringed skirt? Let’s try them all together!”
Internally, Shen Wan wanted to decline, but He Huai had a good eye, and she liked everything he selected. He didn’t pick any in pink or green, so his overall taste seemed acceptable.
Then, it was Shen Wan’s solo fashion show. With every outfit change, He Huai was generous with compliments, praising her enthusiastically. He couldn’t stop himself from singing her praises and finally, with a grand gesture, he exclaimed, “Wrap it all up, we’ll take everything!”
He was about to swipe his card when Shen Wan stopped him. “I’ll take care of it myself,” she said, handing her bank card to the cashier.
He Huai looked at it and remarked, “Is this from your brother?”
Shen Wan raised an eyebrow. “How did you know?”
He Huai waved to the cashier, who understood and handed over the card. He pointed to the lower right corner of the card’s design. “See, there’s the letter ‘S’ here. The entire card features the image of the first office building developed by Tian Shui Real Estate in Ning City’s CBD. It’s significant for Ah Qian. That’s why he collaborated with this bank to customize the card.”
“So, you’re saying that besides Shen… my brother, no one else has this bank card?”
“No, there’s one more person.”
“Hmm?”
“You!” He Huai burst into laughter.

“Wan Wan, All Qian treats you really well. Shen Yan pestered him for quite a while, but he never agreed, only granting it to you. He Huai nodded as if sharing a piece of profound insight.
Shen Wan didn’t comment on this but instead cast a glance at the card, her eyes showing a subtle ripple, too shallow to discern.
She took the card back and handed it to the cashier. “Let’s settle the bill.”
At the same time, in the top-floor suite of the Hot Springs Villa.
“Mr. Zou, how is the Sixth Brother?” Hu Zhibei spotted someone emerging and hurried over, his imposing physique quickly obstructing Zou Lian, casting a shadow over him.
Chu Yujiang and Ling Yun were equally anxious and eager, their eyes fixed on him.
Zou Lian was occupied with organizing a medical kit and, without raising his head, replied, “It’s just a common fever, nothing too severe. You all are overly anxious, needlessly worrying yourselves.”
Hu Zhibei breathed a sigh of relief, but then asked, “How can he suddenly have a fever when he was perfectly fine?”
“Infection and inflammation in the wound, plus it’s been two days. It would be strange if he didn’t have a fever.”
“Wound?!” Hu Zhibei’s heart, just put at ease, was instantly raised again. “Where is the wound? Why don’t 1 know about it? When did he get injured?”
Zou Lian cleared his throat, his old face turning red. “How would I know? There are scratches from fingernails all over his back, chest, thighs, and calves. While it’s normal for young men who have recently started being intimate to be impulsive, they shouldn’t lack self-control to this extent! Excessive intimacy can result in the depletion of vital energy and blood, and the Sixth Lord went overboard. Couldn’t any of you have offered him some guidance? I’ve been a doctor for over forty years, and it’s the first time I’ve seen someone develop such a high fever from engaging in sexual activity!”
It was embarrassing not only for women but also for men. When they began to ponder over the issue, it was indeed quite shameful.
In one word, “deficiency!”
In two words, “kidney deficiency!”
(T/N: In TCM, Kidney deficiency is thought to contribute to a range of sexual and reproductive issues, such as erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, infertility, and low libido..)
