Chapter 132: It’s Normal for Best Friends to Share a Husband
TL: YYang
The sisters-in-law got along harmoniously, and the family was happy and cheerful.
Shen Yuan nodded with satisfaction. This was how life should be!
Next, he began to look around the new apartment. Since it was a fully furnished unit, the hard furnishings were in a modern style, so the furniture and custom cabinets Chen Na had chosen were also in a matching modern light luxury style.
According to Nana, of the more than 900,000 yuan spent on soft furnishings, almost 300,000 was used on the sofa and mattresses. For example, the sofa in the living room was a ZATA V-grade full-grain leather sofa, which cost over 80,000 yuan.
Shen Yuan tried sitting on it. Apart from being slightly more breathable, he didn’t feel much difference from an ordinary sofa.
The apartment had four bedrooms: a master bedroom with an en-suite bathroom, two secondary bedrooms, and another small bedroom that could be used as a maid’s room in the future.
For the master bedroom and another secondary bedroom, she had bought two Tempur-Pedic mattresses from the VanPuur series, one 2m x 2m and one 1.8m x 2m. The two mattresses together cost 200,000 yuan.
Chen Na had originally planned to buy only one Tempur-Pedic, but Shen Yuan had told her to buy another 1.8m one for the secondary bedroom.
Chen Na had been a bit confused at the time but had done as he said, unaware that Shen Yuan was paving the way for her sister-in-law’s arrival.
Speaking of which, Shen Yuan had never slept on a 100,000-yuan mattress in his life. He was feeling a bit sleepy now, so he decided to take a nap here.
“I’m going to rest for a bit. You guys chat.”
After saying goodbye to his two wives and sister, who were happily chatting, Shen Yuan went into the master bedroom.
Hou Qianqian felt out of place in the living room. She had planned to come alone today to help Nana with the housewarming and to see what a 165-square-meter apartment looked like with 1 million yuan in soft furnishings. She hadn’t expected Liu Menglu to hear about it and ask to come along too.
She had even asked Menglu at the time: ‘You two are like this? Can you still coexist harmoniously in the same room?’
Who would have known that Liu Menglu would say: ‘Men are men, and best friends are best friends. In ancient times, it was common for biological sisters to share a husband, let alone best friends.’
At the time, Hou Qianqian had been complaining in her heart, ‘If you two were really still best friends, you could just contact each other directly. Why do I have to be the messenger every time something comes up?’
Thinking about this, Hou Qianqian also felt a bit angry. ‘You two got the sugar daddy. It’s bad enough that I didn’t get a piece of the action, but I still have to be a tool for you two.’
‘Fine, I’ll tolerate being a tool.’
‘Shen Yuan bought you two sports cars, a Porsche and a Maserati. You just wouldn’t consider a Ferrari, huh?’
‘What a pair of fake best friends!’
Especially now, seeing Nana living in this big house, Hou Qianqian felt even worse.
Both of her best friends had flown the coop and become phoenixes, driving sports cars and living in big houses, while she was still stuck in the mud, working a grueling job every day and coming home at night to a one-bedroom rental.
‘Family, who can understand this feeling?’
Hou Qianqian wanted to cry but had no tears. She had even thought about becoming Nana’s nanny since Nana was already pregnant.
With Shen Yuan’s wealth, he probably wouldn’t treat her poorly.
But on second thought, she wasn’t a good cook, and her housework skills were average. Would they even want her?
“Sigh~”
Hou Qianqian sighed silently. It seemed she should interact less with Menglu and Nana in the future. Otherwise, constantly feeling this disparity in life was just too painful.
“Xuanxuan, why don’t we go shopping? I’ll buy you some clothes, shoes, and bags?” Chen Na suggested at that moment.
Shen Yuan had transferred 5 million yuan to her as pocket money. This was too much money for her; she felt like she could never spend it all. She might as well buy some gifts for Shen Xuan and take the opportunity to build a good relationship with her sister-in-law.
She hadn’t expected Shen Yuan to bring his sister over today, but since he was willing to bring family, it indirectly showed that she had gained more of his approval. So, she, as the sister-in-law, had to perform well.
“Okay!”
Shen Xuan was just thinking about going on a shopping spree. With two sisters-in-law to accompany her, and since their fashion sense seemed good, it was perfect to have them help her choose.
Liu Menglu and Hou Qianqian also had no objections, so the four beauties tidied up and went downstairs. Afraid of disturbing Shen Yuan’s nap, Chen Na didn’t go to the room to call him but just sent him a WeChat message.
Liu Menglu had also driven her Porsche 911 over today, and Hou Qianqian had come in her car. But when they got downstairs, she suddenly said she had left something upstairs and told Chen Na and the others to go ahead.
So, Chen Na drove the MC20 and left with Shen Xuan first, while Hou Qianqian waited in the underground garage.
While driving, Chen Na suddenly thought of something and asked, “Xuanxuan, when is your birthday?”
“My birthday was in March this year. Why?” Shen Xuan blinked her watery eyes.
“Nothing, just asking.”
A smile couldn’t help but appear on Chen Na’s face. She still remembered the first time Shen Yuan had taken her to the IFC to buy a bag, using the excuse that he “needed to buy a gift for his sister’s birthday.”
Thinking back on it now was a bit funny.
That damn Shen Yuan was such a scumbag. Who knew how many girls he had tricked with that excuse.
Hou Qianqian waited in the underground garage for 10 minutes. Seeing that Menglu still hadn’t come down, she was about to call her when Menglu sent her a WeChat message.
“Qianqian, you can take a taxi back first. I have something to take care of here.”
‘Take care of something? What are you taking care of at Nana’s place?’
She was a bit confused. Then, a red envelope was sent over. Hou Qianqian opened it and saw it contained 200 yuan.
Hou Qianqian instantly understood.
‘Alright, alright. Nana goes shopping with her sister-in-law, and you go upstairs to keep Shen Yuan company, right?’
‘You two really know how to play!’
‘So I’m the only one who’s redundant, huh?’
‘Hmph, friendship over!’
But at least Menglu had some conscience. A taxi only cost 50 yuan, and she gave her 200, meaning she made a net profit of 150.
‘No, no, I even bought a potted plant for the housewarming today, which cost 300.’
‘And accepting 200 from Menglu means I have to explain to Nana why Menglu and I couldn’t go, and I have to come up with a good excuse.’
‘Shit! I lost out!’
‘What the hell is going on today?’
Chen Na’s apartment had a fingerprint and password lock. Although Chen Na had told Liu Menglu the password, it could also be changed.
On the 16th floor, Liu Menglu entered the password, opened the door, and sneaked into the bedroom.
“I’m here~”
Liu Menglu climbed onto the Tempur-Pedic mattress and looked at the sleeping Shen Yuan, gently scraping his nose.
Shen Yuan didn’t react. Liu Menglu didn’t care and just pressed herself against him.
Shen Yuan woke up in a daze, feeling something pressing on his face.
But this feeling… besides the coach, who else could it be?
Shen Yuan was instantly wide awake. He subconsciously flinched, quickly poked his head out, and whispered, “Are you crazy?”
“They went shopping. Right now, it’s just the two of us in this apartment.”
“They went shopping?”
Shen Yuan had been sleeping and hadn’t seen the WeChat message.
Now, hearing Liu Menglu say this, he breathed a sigh of relief.
“They went shopping, why didn’t you go?”
Liu Menglu said with a charming smile, “I wanted to stay here with you.”
“I think you were just trying to pull a fast one, weren’t you?”
“What fast one? I don’t understand.”
Liu Menglu blinked her beautiful eyes innocently.
“Still pretending with me, are you?”
Shen Yuan knew Liu Menglu too well. She must have made an excuse to come back after getting downstairs, told them to go ahead, and then made up another excuse saying she had something to do and couldn’t go.
But that wasn’t the point. The point was the beautiful and charming woman in front of him.
Liu Menglu had originally been wearing a shirt as an outer layer, but she had already taken it off, revealing a white cropped tank top underneath, which fully displayed her snowy cleavage and slender waist.
Although the tank top wasn’t tight-fitting, her white headlights were so well-nourished that they looked like they were about to burst out.
And on her lower body, Liu Menglu wore a pair of washed denim shorts.
She sat up straight, kneeling, and tossed her hair back, saying in a coquettish voice, “Hubby, I missed you~”
This morning, Shen Yuan had missed her fitness class for the first time, saying he had family matters to attend to.
Since Nana was taking Shen Xuan to buy clothes, she felt there was no point in her going. After all, buying things for Shen Yuan’s sister would definitely involve spending money at luxury stores.
Shen Yuan had given Nana a lot of pocket money, so she could naturally afford it. But it was different for her. Although she had a sports car, she didn’t have a house or a large amount of pocket money yet.
So, it was better to serve Shen Yuan well here.
“You used the wrong name again?” Shen Yuan looked at her with a teasing gaze.
Liu Menglu’s pretty face instantly turned red. She lightly bit her lip and said, “Daddy~ I missed you~”
Liu Menglu still wasn’t used to this form of address. Every time she said it, she felt so embarrassed.
Knowing that no one else was around, Shen Yuan immediately became bolder and started to get creative.
Liu Menglu let out a soft moan and couldn’t help but clutch the bedsheet.
“Not here. This is Nana’s new Tempur-Pedic.”
Shen Yuan stopped what he was doing, then looked towards the bathroom and said, “Let’s have our lesson in there.”
Liu Menglu pouted her pink lips. “But I want to do it here~”
“What are you thinking?”
Shen Yuan ignored her and carried her into the bathroom.
Besides, Coach Liu was a magician…
40 minutes later, Shen Yuan picked up the showerhead and rinsed the floor clean before leaving the bathroom.
Liu Menglu went to the living room to rehydrate. At this moment, not only were her beautiful eyes filled with autumn ripples, but her whole body also glowed with a crimson luster.
Shen Yuan was still scolding, “You should have said so earlier. You made me take a shower just now.”
At 4:30 PM, Shen Yuan and Liu Menglu finished cleaning up the battlefield and took the elevator together.
In the elevator, Liu Menglu was still being mischievous, insisting on giving Shen Yuan a French kiss.
Shen Yuan couldn’t help but pat her perky buttocks. “You little vixen, we’ll fight again tomorrow.”
“Okay!”
Liu Menglu had gotten two lessons today and nodded in satisfaction. Then, she swayed her slender waist and got back into her 911.
Shen Yuan, on the other hand, drove the G-Wagon to the IFC to pick up Shen Xuan. On the way, he called Chen Na and told her he would wait for Shen Xuan at the entrance of the IFC.
After arriving at the IFC, Shen Yuan rolled down the car window and watched the passing vehicles, unable to help but yawn. He had only slept for about ten minutes in the afternoon, which was clearly not enough. It was all Liu Menglu’s fault for being so insatiable.
And across the road, Da Zhe was staring blankly out of boredom when he was suddenly attracted by the G-Wagon across the street. He even got a clear look at the young man inside.
“This kid is driving a G-Wagon now? Wasn’t he just cashing out here a month ago?”
Da Zhe was a bit puzzled. He had a deep impression of this young man because he had cashed out all his Huabei, Baitiao, and credit cards, and then used the money to buy an LV at the IFC.
He hadn’t expected that after just a month, he would be driving a G-Wagon.
Even if he were selling drugs, the money wouldn’t come that fast, would it?
