Chapter 41: Beautiful Young Madams
"Hey, Fei’Er, what’s the deal? You were clearly home, so why didn’t you come open the door for us?"
"You weren’t hiding some boy toy from us in here, were you?"
The beautiful young women came in, expertly grabbing slippers from the shoe cabinet as if they owned the place, teasing her as they changed.
As for Qin Fei’Er, she was already in a state of absolute panic.
She never imagined the women would just let themselves in. She and Chenyang, who was right behind her, were completely unprepared and utterly caught off guard.
So much so that while the chattering women joked around, the two of them were still physically connected.
Her nightgown was bunched up around her slender waist, her hips arched high.
And down below, wanting even more, she was still clenching tightly around that searing-hot intrusion.
Qin Fei’Er felt her entire body go rigid.
For a moment, she completely forgot to pull away.
Chenyang, positioned behind her, was in a similar state.
However, after catching sight of the women’s sexy attire and enchanting figures, the defiant soldier down below wasn’t intimidated in the slightest. On the contrary, it grew even more restless.
It even gave two involuntary twitches in the moment they were both frozen in shock.
"Ah~!"
Qin Fei’Er was already tense beyond belief. When he suddenly twitched twice like that, it felt like he was about to hit her deepest nerve, and she couldn’t help but cry out.
The other three women were too busy joking around to notice, but the one with short hair, who had already changed her slippers and started walking in, glanced up at the sound.
"What’s wrong, Fei’Er?"
"Ah... It’s nothing. Why do you all show up without even a heads-up? You scared me!"
As she answered, Qin Fei’Er discreetly pushed Chenyang back with her hand, then stepped off the footstool and back onto the floor.
While putting on a welcoming smile, she quickly straightened her clothes.
Seeing this, Chenyang had no choice but to play along, despite his painful state of arousal.
He tucked his reluctant little brother away, pulled up his pants, and feigned a posture of someone who was just helping out.
Since he had been standing behind her, the women hadn’t noticed him.
Now, as he turned and made it look like he was about to help make dumplings, he immediately caught the eyes of the beauties.
The short-haired woman said in surprise, "Well, well, so you really are keeping a hidden treasure... oh, my mistake. Keeping a handsome man in your love nest."
"Hey, Sister Fei’Er, fess up. Where’d you find such a tall, handsome man? I don’t recognize him. He’s not from our circle, is he?"
"He’s not just handsome, he’s so masculine. This guy is way better than anyone I’ve seen before. Sister Fei’Er, is he your boyfriend? If not, you have to introduce me."
At this prompting, the other women all focused their gazes on Chenyang.
Even though they couldn’t see his full frame, his sharp, chiseled features and handsome, bright face made all their eyes light up.
They were all very close friends with Qin Fei’Er.
Some were married to businessmen, while others were managers with respectable positions in the medical field.
The women shared a deep friendship and often hung out together.
They mostly frequented high-end venues.
Their worldliness and experience were beyond that of ordinary women.
They had seen plenty of handsome men, and had even met some who were more handsome than Chenyang.
However, the handsome men they’d met before were usually one of two types: either meticulously groomed pretty boys hoping to land a rich sugar mama, or spoiled second-generation heirs from wealthy families with impressive backgrounds.
But regardless of the type, they all gave off an aura of being either spoiled and decadent or completely artificial.
But this was the first time they had seen someone like Chenyang, whose handsomeness was so natural and down-to-earth.
As a result, while firing off questions, the women completely ignored Li Qiang and flocked toward the kitchen.
Worried they would discover something, Qin Fei’Er tried to herd them away as she explained, "Go on, shoo! Can you not act like a bunch of horny widows? Chenyang is my tenant here, not the type of person you’re imagining. He just came from the countryside to find work. He’s a little shy, so don’t you dare scare him."
"A tenant?"
Hearing this, everyone froze for a moment.
Qin Fei’Er sighed and briefly explained her family’s situation and her reason for finding a tenant.
After hearing her out, the women exchanged glances and fell silent.
They all knew about the Li Family’s situation.
They had offered to help Qin Fei’Er in the past.
But while Qin Fei’Er would accept small kindnesses, she always flatly refused any larger offers of help.
They understood that it was partly because Qin Fei’Er was proud, and partly because help from others was not a long-term solution.
The atmosphere grew a bit awkward, so the short-haired woman quickly changed the subject. "So, are you guys making dumplings?"
"Yeah. Qiangqiang got married yesterday, so I figured I’d make something nice for the newlyweds, and for Xiaochen."
"Then we picked the perfect day to visit! We get to enjoy some too."
"Fei’Er, where’s the new bride? Hurry up and bring her out so we can have a look!"
"Yes, yes! Where’s the bride? We’ve all prepared generous red envelopes for her."
"Weiwei is taking a shower. She’ll be out in a little while."
"Alright, then let’s help you make dumplings in the meantime."
The women put down their purses and gathered around the counter. Of course, while they "helped," they couldn’t help but keep shooting glances in Chenyang’s direction.
Some sized him up discreetly, while others subtly edged closer and closer.
The short-haired woman who had spotted him first grinned and sidled up to him, purring playfully, "Hey handsome, Feifei said you’re looking for a job. Found one yet? Any interest in working at my massage spa? All the clients you’d be servicing are rich and gorgeous."
