Yanjing.

Zhichun East Lane.

Chen Xinyi and Jin Shilin didn't wake up until almost 11 o'clock.

They were woken up by hunger.

Jin Shilin sat up in bed, her hair a mess like a bird's nest. She squinted, touched her stomach, and said, "I'm so hungry." Then she nudged Chen Xinyi, who was still hugging her waist.

Chen Xinyi turned over, buried her face in the pillow, and mumbled, "Just five more minutes."

What should have been five minutes eventually turned into twenty minutes.

When the two finally dawdled out of the master bedroom, they bumped into Lin Siyan coming out of the second bedroom.

She had taken a nap in the morning, and her face still looked sleepy, but her hair was neatly combed, indicating that she had already washed up.

The three met in the hallway, exchanged glances, and then tacitly lined up to wait for the restroom.

Jin Shilin stood behind Lin Siyan, yawned, and casually glanced at Lin Siyan's profile.

Then her yawn stopped halfway through. "Siyan, what happened to your lips?"

Lin Siyan remained expressionless and said calmly, "The weather in the capital is dry, so I might be having a bit of an allergic reaction."

Jin Shilin stared at her for several seconds, and the corners of her mouth slowly curled up.

She didn't ask any further questions, but just glanced at Chen Xinyi, who happened to turn her head.

The meaning in that look was clear: You see, it's swollen again.

Chen Xinyi was rubbing her eyes when she received this look, and a smile that Wei Yi privately called "a relieved auntie smile" appeared on her face.

"Autumn in the capital is indeed dry."

Chen Xinyi chimed in, her tone so sincere it sounded like she was genuinely discussing the weather, "I'll have Aunt Zheng make some more white fungus soup later."

Lin Siyan hummed in agreement and turned to walk into the restroom.

Jin Shilin leaned close to Chen Xinyi's ear and whispered.

"He wasn't here last time, but he is this time. Both times it's swollen. Guess who initiated it this time?"

"It doesn't matter." Chen Xinyi walked towards the kitchen with a smile. "The result is the same anyway."

It was almost midnight when Wei Yi returned from outside.

After finishing his meal with Lin Siyan in the morning, he went downstairs for his morning exercise.

After finishing my practice, I chatted with Grandpa Zhou for a while, and then went out for a long wandering around.

I brought back a bag of fruit.

As I entered, I saw my three older sisters sprawled on the sofa, each in a remarkably identical posture, as if their bones had been removed.

"Sis, where's Aunt Zheng?"

"I've taken the day off." Chen Xinyi pointed to the kitchen. "Wash the fruit and bring it over."

After washing the fruit, Wei Yi placed it on the coffee table and sat down next to Chen Xinyi.

Jin Shilin was scrolling through Xin Yi's work group on her phone when she suddenly looked up.

"By the way, didn't you say last week that you were going to Sister Wu's house today? I remember she invited me several times."

"I have something to do today, and I've already told Aunt Wu that I won't be going this week." Wei Yi took a bite of an apple.

Jin Shilin responded and continued looking at the restocking data in the group chat, casually remarking:

"Sister Wu hasn't been talking much in the beauty group lately. She used to post more than a dozen links a day, like interior design examples, health articles, and newly opened restaurants, but now she's quiet. It's quite strange."

"Maybe I'm busy at the end of the year." Chen Xinyi picked up her teacup and took a sip.

Jin Shilin didn't ask any further questions and was busy replying to the manager of the Tianbingbing Wangjing store in the group chat about the sales volume of lemonade.

Lin Siyan sat quietly on the single sofa, flipping through magazines.

Surprisingly, she didn't glare at Wei Yi with her eyes today.

She would only glance at him occasionally before turning the page again.

I guess it's because I was scared of being gnawed on in the morning.

Or maybe they just haven't had enough sleep and don't have the energy to argue with people.

Wei Yi and Chen Xinyi exchanged a glance.

The siblings exchanged a knowing smile.

On my way back from Peking Union Medical College Hospital yesterday.

The siblings had a heart-to-heart talk in the car.

Chen Xinyi spoke first. "What do you think of Sister Wu?"

"Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful," Wei Yi replied truthfully. "You don't have that mature charm yet."

"How many women have you slept with? You've already acted like a seasoned pro! I'm asking you, do you think she'd be suitable to join us?"

Wei Yi thought for a moment and then answered seriously, "I don't know. I'm bad at judging people, you know that, sister."

Chen Xinyi leaned back in the driver's seat and adjusted the rearview mirror, her tone shifting from casual conversation to analytical mode. "As for Wu Zhenhe, I only dealt with her as a client of the beauty salon before. I thought she was rich, generous, and easy to talk to."

"But ever since you told me that she has connections in the Economic Commission, that she can call Lin Donghe of IDG 'Xiao Lin,' and that she lives at No. 77, Beiheyan, I've felt something was off."

"If she were just an ordinary rich woman, just Brother Ren's wife, she wouldn't have these resources."

She paused. "So I've asked a lot of people to check this week."

"What did you find out?"

"They stopped investigating once they found even a little bit."

Chen Xinyi's voice carried a rare hint of apprehension. "Her father didn't actually hold a high position in the Economic Commission. But he worked in Fujian Province for a long time, and she grew up in Fujian Province."

"What do you mean?"

"Her father took early retirement."

"Holy crap!" Wei Yi, who was on the same wavelength as his older sister, felt a chill run down his spine when he thought of that possibility.

"Really?" he exclaimed in shock.

"It's most likely true. I don't dare to investigate any further."

Wei Yi fell silent.

This is insane.

This must be what it truly means to accidentally wander into the imperial palace.

"So what do you plan to do now?" he asked.

"Press it down."

Chen Xinyi put it succinctly, "If it's too easy to get, people won't cherish it. Let's whet their appetite and test the waters before they come to us."

"She's head over heels for you right now. The less you take the initiative, the more she'll think about you."

"Once she's attached to it to a certain extent, some rules will be easier to discuss."

Looking at his sister's profile, Wei Yi couldn't help but say, "Sis, maybe we should just call it quits."

"Um?"

"I'm afraid I won't be able to control it!"

"What's there to be afraid of? We live in a society governed by law."

She laughed: "At worst, we can put her name on the marriage certificate and have her be the older one and me the younger one."

Wei Yi: "..."

He felt his older sister was too crazy.

Someone of this caliber dares to stroke a tiger's whiskers?

"It all depends on you," Chen Xinyi laughed. "If you can make her unable to resist and let you do whatever you want, then she will be our stepping stone to heaven."

Just thinking about the possibilities and future my older sister talked about...

I realized I had 30,000 Bitcoins.

Wei Yi gritted his teeth.

"Let's give it a shot!" he said. "Then I'll listen to you, shall we give it a try?"

The worst that can happen is that we fail.

They absconded with the money!

With those 30,000 anonymous Bitcoins, you can be a rich man anywhere!

"That's my good brother. Don't worry, she's come to me willingly."

Chen Xinyi smiled, her expression unusually serious. "Don't go tomorrow. Don't see them for a while either. Let's wait and see."

"Mm." Wei Yi nodded.

Chen Xinyi smiled but didn't reply.

She turned on her turn signal and entered the Zhichun East Lane residential area, the ginkgo leaves rustling under her wheels.

That's why they turned down Wu Zhenhe's invitation today.

The reason is simple.

Sister Wu's background is terrifying.

Compared to Suleimani, she was a different story.

They can be considered harmless to humans and animals.

After enjoying a pleasant lunch delivered from their own restaurant, all three of their older sisters had other commitments for the afternoon.

Chen Xinyi is going to the Heytea Guomao store to check the data from the new product tasting; Jin Shilin is going to the Tianbingbing Renda store to deal with a supplier's problem; and Lin Siyan is going to the bank to inquire about matters related to the corporate account.

After the three of them finished eating, they changed their clothes and went out.

Before leaving, Chen Xinyi kissed Wei Yi on the lips, and Jin Shilin followed suit with a kiss.

Lin Siyan was the last to leave, and Wei Yi, quick as a flash, slapped her.

"Snapped!"

"What are you doing?!" Sister Siyan's beautiful eyes widened, anger surging. "Chen Xinyi, your brother slapped my butt!"

"I didn't mean to." Wei Yi felt a little embarrassed when he saw the two older women in front of him turn around.

He didn't expect his lips to be so swollen from chewing on them all morning.

There has been absolutely no progress, and the response is still the same.

He wiped his hands. "There are mosquitoes. Let me swat them for Sister Siyan."

"Haha~" Jin Shilin reacted first, grinning, "Siyan, your little brother swatted the mosquitoes for you. Aren't you going to thank him?"

"I should thank him?!" Lin Siyan's beautiful eyes widened in anger.

Chen Xinyi then put her arm around her at the right moment, saying, "Alright, alright, he didn't do it on purpose. How about I have him take a picture of you? Do you want to take a picture of his front or back? If it's the front, make sure it's light, Sister Shilin will need it later."

"Your brother!" Jin Shilin cursed, "Don't you need to use it too?!"

"Use, use, use, haha..." Chen Xinyi laughed, putting her arm around Lin Siyan.

At this moment, Lin Siyan is like a rooster that can defeat a centipede, or the sun that can defeat darkness.

Chen Xinyi put her arm around Lin Siyan, and Lin Siyan immediately pouted and calmed down, "Of course he did it on purpose, who would want to take a picture of him..."
