I am not just a tycoon-Chapter 732 - 439: Long Drought Meets Sweet Rain, Little Buding_2
I just couldn't feel anything.
But now it's different... Shen Yuan is here now.
.....
Fang Minhui is one of the few NPCs that could go a few rounds with Shen Yuan, but now she's up against an even stronger Shen Yuan, and she's feeling outmatched in less than 20 minutes.
"Yuan Babe... Yuan Babe..."
"What are you calling me?"
"Slap! Slap!"
With two heavy slaps, Fang Minhui winces in pain and bites her lower lip: "Daddy, daddy..."
......
At 9:30 pm, Shen Yuan lies in Fang Minhui's nest, holding her in his arms, her complexion flushed and her breathing uneven.
"Yuan Babe, you're ravenous. Once at the flower shop, twice at home, and it's not even 10 o'clock yet."
Fang Minhui speaks with a hint of complaint.
"Heh, we're just getting started. Your toughness as a Knight is kind of disappointing."
Fang Minhui bats her eyelashes: "To be honest, I still prefer you back in the beginning when you would call for a rest after just one round."
"You've got a problem. It needs fixing."
Shen Yuan glances at the XP above her head.
[XP: Learning Excitement Body, the more you learn, the more excited you become; Taming Excitement Body, likes to conquer men, likes to see men powerless afterward...]
Learning is endless, but to fulfill the "Taming" XP, Shen Yuan can only up his acting skills.
"That's not it at all."
Fang Minhui cuddles up to Shen Yuan, satisfied: "Yuan Babe, just thinking about being able to hold you like this for 7 consecutive days is so comfortable."
Heh, don't get too happy too soon. There are also three women joining us on the trip; who knows which lucky one might end up in my bed.
Shen Yuan thinks contentedly to himself, but just then Fang Minhui's phone suddenly rings.
She picks it up, slips on a nightgown, then hushes: "It's a video call from my parents."
Shen Yuan gives an OK gesture, and Fang Minhui then presses the answer button.
Shen Yuan glances at the screen. Instead of her parents, it's a little girl who hasn't lost her childlike quality.
"Sister, sister, when are you coming back? I miss you~" the little girl says in a babyish voice.
Fang Minhui has a younger sister who's only a few years old; Shen Yuan has known for a while, but this is his first time seeing her.
Fang Minhui's parents have long desired a second child, but due to policy restrictions, they could only have one. After an unexpected pregnancy and the easing of the second-child policy, they decided to keep the baby.
With her watery big eyes, fair skin, and cute features, it's clear she could grow up to be a beauty.
Pretty good family genes.
"Sister is busy, and there's no time recently. How about visiting Little Buding during the New Year?" Fang Minhui says tenderly.
"Sister is lying, last time you said you would come back this month on vacation, and now the month's nearly over."
The little girl pouts in annoyance, and then with eyes even bigger than Fang Minhui's, she leans closer to the screen: "Eh, sister, why is your face so red? Are you shy? Mommy says only shy people blush."
Fang Minhui shows an awkward smile: "Not at all, I was just running."
"Is that so, alright then."
Little Buding is probably around five or six years old and ends up believing her, then asks: "So when is the New Year? Is it a long wait?"
"Not really, it's just two, three.... four months away."
Little Buding frowns and tilts her head to do the math: "Hmm... one month is 30 days, so four months is... over 100... more than 100 days. That's so long, sister!"
"Will you bring me some goodies when you come back?" Little Buding asks.
"Of course, I will. I'll buy you so many treats that you won't finish them in a month."
"Yay!"
Little Buding waves her little fists excitedly, but not long after, she deflates again: "But mommy won't let me eat a lot. She says too many snacks are bad and can cause cavities."
Fang Minhui lowers her voice suddenly: "Then I'll keep them in my room, and you can come and get them from sister's room whenever you want, how does that sound?"
Little Buding nods seriously, sneaking around and whispering, "Okay, sister, pinky promise... I'll also secretly tell you, I took her phone while mommy was showering to call you—she has no idea. Hehe, I'm smart, right?"
"You really are clever," Fang Minhui praises without hesitation.
But at that moment, a sudden "click" of a door opening can be heard, and Little Buding's face panics: "I'm not talking anymore, mommy is back. See you when you return, sister~"
The video call ends abruptly, and a rare look of doting affection appears on Fang Minhui's face: "How about that, my little sister is cute, isn't she?"
Shen Yuan nodded: "Indeed adorable."
Thinking back, Younger Sister Xuan also went through this stage, both clingy and cute.
As for now, heh, just a handyman.
Fang Minhui regretfully said: "Actually, I was planning to go back during the National Day holiday, but since the flower shop just opened, and I wanted to spend some time with you, I didn't go back."
Shen Yuan thought about the itinerary. Ji Ya had scheduled the departure for the day after tomorrow. There were still two days left, and his passport was already processed long ago, with the tourist visa also ready.
"If you miss your sister, go back and see her tomorrow. We're not leaving until the day after anyway."
"Really? Can I?" Fang Minhui asked expectantly.
"Why would I lie to you? It's not like your home is far away."
"Oh yeah!"
"Yuan Babe, can you come with me then?"
Fang Minhui asked again, her face seeking approval: "Since my cousin's incident, my parents already know about you. They said you could come back with me to meet them when you're free."
"Of course, I can."
Shen Yuan affectionately patted her head.
Nana's parents were the first ones he met, followed by Teacher Lih's parents. He started dating the class belle the earliest but hadn't met her parents yet.
Since he had nothing to do for the next couple of days, he might as well accompany her for a visit.
"Oh yeah!"
Fang Minhui buried her head back into Shen Yuan's chest: "Yuan Babe is the best to me."
The next day, Ji Ya brought the G63 over, and knowing that the boss was going to Fang Minhui's home, she also prepared quite a few gifts in the trunk.
She was already familiar with such matters, knowing what to buy without any reminder.
There was also a big red leather bag, and Shen Yuan estimated that it probably contained around 100,000 to 80,000 yuan.
Fang Minhui's home was in a small town in Yue City, about 160 kilometers from Star City, a two-hour drive away.
The town, in reality, was more like a rural village, with two spacious streets lined with rows of buildings. The ground floors had scattered shops, and the second and third floors were usually for residential use.
Beyond that, there were fields and villages spanning several kilometers around.
By the end of October, the countryside was mostly quiet. Young people were out working elsewhere, and children were also away at school, leaving mostly the elderly behind.
Doing some farm work, playing cards, aimlessly strolling around while chatting idly; that's life in the rural areas of Southern Province, only becoming livelier during festivals and holidays.
The Fang family's home was among one of the buildings on a town street, with a small store run by her parents below, and the second and third floors for private residence.
Before the G63 could come to a complete stop, a middle-aged man and woman were already smiling at the door, with a little Little Buding jumping excitedly beside them.
"Dad, Mom."
As soon as Fang Minhui got out from the passenger's seat to greet them, Little Buding rushed over: "Sister, Sister, you lied! You said you would only come back during the New Year, but you're back today!"
"Isn't this just to surprise you?"
Fang Minhui picked her up and held her high above, feeling the weight: "So heavy! Have you been eating more and gained weight recently?"
Little Buding whispered a secret mischievously: "Hehe, let me tell you a secret, grandma has been giving me pocket money recently, and I've been buying fried skewers from the street corner every day, you mustn't tell Mom, okay?"
"...."
Shen Yuan also got out of the car and greeted them: "Hello Uncle, Auntie."
"Good, good, come in and sit down."
Fang Minhui's parents looked like honest folks, a bit nervous about hosting their future son-in-law for the first time, simply gesturing uneasily for him to come in and sit down.
"Okay, let me first get the things from the trunk."
Shen Yuan opened the trunk planning to move the tobacco, alcohol, and other tonics out of the car.
But at that moment, Little Buding came over, her pigtails swinging, and lifted her proud little round face: "Who are you?"
"I came back with your sister. Who do you think I am?" Shen Yuan asked in return.
Little Buding's big eyes rolled around as she thought seriously, then suddenly seemed to have an "inspired thought," pointing at Shen Yuan: "You're the driver, right?"
"Haha, if you say so."
Shen Yuan looked down at the cute little girl: "And you, what's your name?"
She gazed up with her innocent big eyes: "I'm Little Buding, don't you know that?"
"I mean your full name."
"Just Little Buding!"
