Earlier by the Huangpu River, Su Lexuan's feelings for Shen Lang had already crossed 50, and Shen Lang received a mysterious treasure chest.
Shen Lang figured Su Lexuan would probably be in the shower for ten to twenty minutes, so he decided to check out what's inside the chest first.
[Ding! Congratulations, the host has obtained a set of Jiujian Hall's independent villa!]
[Ding! Congratulations, the host has obtained a divine-level talent: House Mysticism. This ability can only be comprehended, not explained. Its mysteries can only be experienced through practice!]
[Ding! Congratulations, the host has obtained a divine-level directing talent: The host's directing skills will be greatly enhanced. With excellent actors, every film can become a huge hit!]
"Hmm? Three rewards in a row? Lucky me!"
Shen Lang was thrilled and began to carefully examine these abilities.
First, the Jiujian Hall villa—this is incredibly awesome.
It's a top-notch, ridiculously expensive villa area in Jianghai City, known throughout the country. Prices in Jiujian Hall have reached sky-high levels of 500,000 per square meter. Even the cheapest villa could cost over a hundred million!
As Shen Lang pondered, a thick red booklet suddenly appeared and fell into his hands.
The red booklet had eight gold-embossed characters on it: [China Real Estate Property Certificate]
Shen Lang glanced at the bathroom—Su Lexuan probably hadn't finished yet.
He eagerly opened the property certificate to see how big the villa was.
Hopefully, it's not the smallest one.
[Jiujian Hall Villa Area—Building A, Unit 6]
[Villa Area: 710m²]
[Property Owner: Shen Lang]
"Seven hundred ten square meters?"
Shen Lang gasped in disbelief.
This definitely isn't the worst villa in Jiujian Hall; just by the area, it's at least above average.
He estimated that this standalone villa could be worth over three hundred million!
Of course, Shen Lang had no intention of selling this villa.
Even if there were a wealthy buyer willing to pay three hundred million, why sell? It's a villa in Jiujian Hall, the most luxurious and expensive in Jianghai City!
Shen Lang wasn't short on cash, and with a wealthy and beautiful landlord's wife, he had millions left unused. Why sell the villa when he could enjoy living in it?
"I'll check it out sometime."
Excited, Shen Lang stuffed the property certificate into the bedside drawer and started feeling the changes brought by the House Mysticism.
This ability was something that could only be understood and not explained. As described by the system, it had to be experienced to grasp its intricacies!
In an instant, countless techniques and movements from various teachers were etched into Shen Lang's mind like an indelible memory.
"Looks like I'll be able to treat the little elf well later."
Excited by the memories in his head, Shen Lang looked forward to the new ability.
The third ability, the directing talent, was also intriguing. Used well, it could be a highly profitable asset.
"Hmm, I'll think about it more when I get back."
After waiting a few more minutes in the living room, when the sound of the hairdryer from the bathroom stopped, Shen Lang knew Su Lexuan was ready!
When Su Lexuan stepped out, Shen Lang's breath hitched for a moment.
The bathroom was filled with steam, creating a dreamy atmosphere.
Su Lexuan, wearing a pure white bathrobe and damp slippers, walked to the edge of the bed, unsure whether to sit or lie down.
Her delicate fingers twisted her wet hair, her face flushed with a visible blush, looking at Shen Lang with a mix of shyness and pride.
Tiny, crystal-clear droplets of water clung to her fair, translucent collarbone.
"Ahem, I'll go wash up too."
Shen Lang swallowed discreetly, trying to stay calm, and walked toward the bathroom.
As he passed by Su Lexuan, he couldn't resist giving her a playful kiss on her tender cheek.
"Pervert!"
Su Lexuan grumbled under her breath, staring silently at the soft bed.
"Whatever, might as well go for it!"
Determined, Su Lexuan threw herself onto the bed, shyly yet eagerly diving under the covers.
In less than two minutes, Shen Lang came out with his hair towel-dried: "Lexuan~"
Su Lexuan peeked out from under the covers with shy, curious eyes: "What's up? Did you run out of shower gel or shampoo?"
Shen Lang tossed the towel beside the TV: "Huh? I'm done."
Seriously, if a shower took more than three minutes, it would be disrespectful to men!
"Ah?!"
Seeing Su Lexuan's shock, Shen Lang hurriedly pulled off the covers and scooped her up in her bathrobe.
"Let me go..."
Su Lexuan, initially resisting symbolically, quickly gave in as she nestled into Shen Lang's embrace, feeling her heart race as she listened to his steady heartbeat.
Lacking experience, she felt nervous yet thrilled, waiting for her boyfriend to make the next move.
"Lexuan, your hands are so tiny and soft. Let's compare."
Instead of diving straight into the topic, Shen Lang gently chatted with Su Lexuan about random things.
"You're a guy, so of course, your hands are bigger than mine."
Su Lexuan muttered as she held Shen Lang's firm hand.
Shen Lang lightly brushed Su Lexuan's slightly damp hair and lovingly said, "Baby, you smell really nice."
"It's the shower gel. Of course, it smells good..."
Su Lexuan's heart raced, her breath irregular, as she felt Shen Lang's hand starting to misbehave.
"Baby, you know, I love your legs."
Shen Lang's hands, which were stroking Su Lexuan's ankles, slowly moved up her smooth thighs.
"Really, baby, your legs are so beautiful and well-shaped, even better than those models."
Su Lexuan stopped speaking, gripping Shen Lang's pajamas tightly, eyes closed tightly, her entire body warming up as if bracing for something scary.
Shen Lang gently nibbled on Su Lexuan's earlobe: "Baby, is this okay?"
"No, no, Shen, Shen Lang, you're bad... you're bullying me..."
"It's okay, baby, it's okay..."
