I am not just a tycoon

```

"Just over a million, if you buy me another watch next time, won't you be out of money."

Shen Yuan neither agreed nor denied but found the remark somewhat ostentatious... Just over a million... Wouldn't one get beaten up for saying that outside?

If it weren't for the fact that Chen Na received 30 million in special spending funds after becoming pregnant, Shen Yuan would not have been willing to transfer 5 million at once, especially since his own cash flow was just over 50 million.

That 5 million was equivalent to one-tenth of his cash flow.

Knowing she couldn't win against Shen Yuan, Chen Na relented. Anyway, the money would eventually be spent on Shen Yuan.

"Then let's go, today you can wear this Nautilus watch."

Shen Yuan handed over his wrist, and Chen Na, with an understanding, took off the Audemars Piguet she was wearing.

During the trip to Southern Yunnan, Chen Na bought local specialties and gifts for both sets of parents, and also bought jewelry for Shen Xuan and Ms. Li.

So when the couple arrived home laden with big and small packages, Li Hongjuan immediately stood up to help, while complaining, "Why did you buy so much stuff again."

"It's only right to show respect to mom with gifts."

Chen Na, who was much more at ease than on her first visit, began taking items out of the bags and introducing them one by one: "We've got rose jam, beef jerky, Southern Yunnan tea, and the jewelry and scarves for you, including a tie-dye square scarf, Ethnic Dai Silver, earrings..."

Upon hearing this, Shen Xuan couldn't help but emerge excitedly from her room: "Sister-in-law, you're here! Do you have something for me too?"

"Of course."

Chen Na smiled, "Come and take a look."

Now that Shen Xuan had popped in, Li Hongjuan grew impatient: "Look at you, is that how a girl should act? All you do is stay at home, eat and sleep, sleep and eat..."

Shen Xuan pouted and then peered at the gifts, asking, "Sister-in-law, which ones are mine?"

"...."

The three women were captivated by all these Southern Yunnan trinkets and chattered away endlessly, leaving Shen Yuan to look around and notice Old Shen was nowhere to be seen.

"Strange, it's already half-past eleven, he should be back by now."

Shen Yuan murmured to himself and was about to switch on the TV when he unexpectedly spotted a busy figure in the kitchen.

Curious, Shen Yuan walked over to find Old Shen wearing a pink apron, sweating profusely while cooking.

"Old Shen, what's going on? Since when do you have to cook meals too?"

Shen Yuan looked on, feeling rather sympathetic: "Mom is going too far, making you sweep and mop is one thing, but making you cook all by yourself in the kitchen is another. You've never done it before, how can you handle it? This isn't right."

"Ah, Yuan, don't talk about your mom like that."

Shen Heping shook his head and said, "Your mom does all the household chores by herself, it's very hard on her, so it's normal for me to help out."

"Dad, what's wrong? Are you okay?"

Shen Yuan could hardly believe it: "Have you been PUA'ed by mom? This isn't like you at all. If there's something up, you can tell me, and I will stand up for you!"

Shen Heping hushed him with a "shh": "Keep it down. It's like this, the night before yesterday I went to square dance, and while I was dancing alone, one of the women said her dance partner hadn't shown up and asked me to join her. I didn't think much of it and just offered to help. Unfortunately, your mom saw it."

The corner of Shen Yuan's mouth twitched, then he patted Old Shen on the shoulder and left the kitchen.

Old Shen, Old Shen, you're cooking as a punishment, and you really can't complain.

Shen Heping sighed helplessly and continued flipping the spatula.

But despite her busy chatting, Li Hongjuan was still keeping an eye on the kitchen, and seeing Old Shen struggling, she immediately stepped in.

"Let me do it, honestly, can't even fry a dish properly...."

"...."

The family had a harmonious lunch, with Li Hongjuan constantly doting on her daughter-in-law and Shen Xuan occasionally chiming in, whereas Old Shen and his son hardly found a way to join the conversation.

After dinner, Shen Xuan pulled Shen Yuan to the bedroom and whispered, "Brother, which one is the third sister-in-law?"

Shen Yuan was stunned, "What third sister-in-law, what nonsense are you talking about?"

"Don't play dumb with me. The gifts have already been delivered to our house, and you're still telling me there's nothing?"

Shen Xuan pointed to the cardboard box under her desk, "Isn't that 'Adorable One' who sent the gifts my sister-in-law?"

"...."

Shen Yuan looked at the cardboard box, then he remembered the birthday present that the class belle had sent him.

"How did it end up in here?" Shen Yuan asked.

Shen Xuan giggled, "I was worried Mrs. Nana would see it, so I hid it here specially for you. How's that, am I not clever?"

"Clever?"

Shen Yuan chuckled, "You even failed the second driving test, and you still have the nerve to call yourself clever?"

"What gives you the right to say that? Didn't you also fail the third driving test?"

Shen Xuan retorted immediately.

Shen Yuan waved his hand, "Okay, okay. We've been siblings for so many years, I know exactly what you are about to fuss about. It's about the car, right? Don't worry, as soon as you get your driver's license, I'll take you to buy one, and the budget, well, within two million."

"Yay!"

Shen Xuan excitedly swung her pink fists and then hooked her arm around Shen Yuan's, "Brother, you really are my own brother!"

Shen Yuan: "..."

After hopping around the room for a good while, Shen Xuan asked again, "What about this cardboard box, when do you plan to take it away? Or are you going to open it here? I'm really curious about what's inside."

Shen Yuan said, "I'll come to pick it up when I'm free. After we leave, move the cardboard box to my room. I'm afraid you won't be able to resist opening it."

Shen Xuan grinned, "I really want to open it, but I'm worried you won't buy me a car, so I don't dare."

"But, brother, I'm not wrong, am I? This was sent by the third sister-in-law, right?"

"You girls are always so gossipy, why ask so many questions?"

Shen Yuan replied impatiently and then reminded her again, "Remember to brainwash mom whenever you get the chance, got it?"

Shen Xuan stuck out her tongue, "I know, I know. Thanks to my efforts, Mom is slowly not resisting as much anymore. But if you end up with a third one, then I have no clue."

Shen Yuan shook his head. Younger Sister Xuan wasn't bold enough with her thoughts. In fact, he already had 10 NPCs with a Feel-good Index over 70.

Of course, not every one of them needed to be reported to the family, unless they got pregnant and had a child.

In the afternoon, the family sat together and chatted for a while. Li Hongjuan also instructed, "Yuan, while Nana's belly isn't that big and she can move easily, take her to eat more often. You should also spend more time accompanying Nana when you have the chance, okay?"

"I've prepared some food for Nana, all ready to eat. There's pig's trotters, free-range chicken, and pork ribs. You take them with you later."

"Alright, alright, alright."

Shen Yuan agreed repeatedly.

"Oh, and your uncle's birthday is the day after tomorrow. Will you be free to go to the meal?" Ms. Li asked.

"The day after tomorrow, huh? I should be," Shen Yuan thought for a moment. Tomorrow morning he had an appointment with Su Xuewei to inspect a villa, and in the evening he had plans to dine with Bingying and Zhou Peiwei. He should be free the day after tomorrow.

"The day after tomorrow at noon, come over if you're free," Li Hongjuan reminded.

"Hmm, okay."

The uncle's family has always had a good relationship with them. The uncle and auntie are open-minded and kind people. He also has a cousin, Shen Wei, who used to take good care of Shen Yuan. When Su Xuewei had an issue at her home last time, Shen Wei had helped out.
