About to become the boss of three shops!

"Xiao Yan, don't..."
"Don't be like this..."
Zhao Shumin never dreamed in her wildest dreams that Li Ziyan would actually taste her finger.

The sensation of the tip of his tongue brushing against her fingertip made Zhao Shumin involuntarily squeeze her eyes tightly shut.
For so many years, as a divorced middle-aged woman, Zhao Shumin's heart was actually extremely lonely; it was a woman's instinct.
Compared to young girls, Zhao Shumin's heart was much more suppressed.
The feeling of Li Ziyan kissing her fingertips made her voice sound very unnatural.
However, Li Ziyan did not stop there.
Shortly after, he kissed two of Zhao Shumin's fingers.
"Aunt..."
Zhao Shumin gently hugged Li Ziyan's head.
"Alright, child."
"It's time to rest."

At that moment, Li Ziyan felt a suffocating sensation, and he also realized that he had been a bit impulsive.
After Zhao Shumin left, her natural fragrance seemed to still linger at the tip of Li Ziyan's nose, causing him to endlessly reminisce about the taste of Zhao Shumin's fingertips.
In his mind, he involuntarily recalled Zhao Shumin's deeply feminine curves.
"Aunt Zhao is actually really very pretty."
"It would be great if she could dress a bit more femininely."
At this moment, Li Ziyan thought to himself as a wave of drowsiness washed over him.
He gradually fell asleep.

Li Ziyan fell asleep very quickly, but Zhao Shumin was completely different.
It was naturally much harder for her to fall asleep compared to young people, and everything that happened today felt like a dream, bringing great psychological fluctuations to Zhao Shumin.
That itch coming from the depths of her soul just a moment ago made Zhao Shumin feel even more restless and unable to sleep in peace.
"Xiao Yan must view me as a real woman."
"I am clearly more than twenty years older than him; I'm old enough to be his mother."
In her heart, Zhao Shumin felt it was incredible, yet at the same time, she felt a sense of secret delight.
Any woman hopes that someone can love her; this is a biological instinct.
Zhao Shumin was naturally no exception. After a long while, hesitating through many doubts, Zhao Shumin finally decided to let herself relax.

***

The following days were very peaceful.
Zhao Shumin continued to cook for Li Ziyan just like before, which had already become a habit between the two of them.
Perhaps because he had won the one-hundred-thousand-yuan grand prize a few days ago, Li Ziyan didn't receive any more scratch-card information updates.
However, with one hundred and twenty thousand yuan in savings, he could now be said to be completely unflustered. A man with money still possessed that kind of steadfast confidence.

The system's reward had also arrived!
Li Ziyan went to check out his small supermarket; it was indeed a very small supermarket with only one sales clerk.
The way she called him "Boss" made Li Ziyan feel deeply intoxicated in his heart!

In the blink of an eye, the day arrived when the German clients were visiting Shen Hongmei's company.
In the early hours of the morning, the intelligence refreshed punctually.
[Company President Catherine wants to step on you, her disobedient employee, beneath her high heels.]
Li Ziyan: "..."
[Tonight at ten o'clock, the boss of Zhao Shumin's company will use overtime as an excuse to keep her behind, then try to persuade her to be with him, promising he can get divorced for Zhao Shumin's sake, and intends to make advances on her.]
[Xu Qianqian will buy a twelve-thousand-yuan bag today using online loans.]
[Today, Lai Feifei and He Yanrong will both be at Shen Hongmei's company.]
[New task released.]
[Please help Shen Hongmei secure the German clients. Task reward: A second small supermarket.]

"Another small supermarket!"
Just as Li Ziyan was feeling immensely excited, the system's new task arrived!
[New task released.]
[Please rescue Zhao Shumin.]
[Task reward: A two-yuan bargain store.]
[Remarks: Minimum monthly profit of 1 yuan.]

Seeing this reward, Li Ziyan's heart was already filled with extreme excitement!
He was about to become the boss of three stores!

After washing up and returning to his room, Zhao Shumin was already waiting for him to eat.
Ever since Zhao Shumin's birthday, the relationship between Li Ziyan and Zhao Shumin had truly warmed up a lot.
Now, the relationship between the two resembled that of genuine elders and juniors.
"Aunt Zhao, it smells so good."
Li Ziyan's words made Zhao Shumin's heartbeat quicken slightly. Ever since Li Ziyan took her finger into his mouth and gently kissed her fingertip last time, Zhao Shumin always felt in her heart that Li Ziyan's words seemed to imply something. As his elder, she needed to pull him back from the wrong path.
"Mhm, Xiao Yan, eat more."

As the two sat together to eat, Zhao Shumin felt an inexplicable sense of loss in her heart. Her T-shirt had been sitting right there, completely unchanged.
This meant that Li Ziyan genuinely felt that her usual way of dressing wasn't sexy enough.
If things went on like this, Li Ziyan would definitely end up doing something.
Thinking of the consequences made Zhao Shumin's heart feel a bit fearful. She couldn't let Xiao Yan turn into that kind of person.
"Xiao Yan, do you think Aunt's style of dress isn't sexy enough?"
Li Ziyan also felt a bit surprised.
He hadn't expected Zhao Shumin to suddenly bring up the topic of clothing and dressing up.
"It's a bit so, Aunt Zhao. Your dressing style is a bit like something from the last century."
"For such a pretty and gorgeous beauty like you, I really feel it's a bit of a waste."
Li Ziyan thought to himself: if Zhao Shumin were to change into black silk stockings, a short skirt, high heels, and a deep V-neck outfit, what kind of scene would that be? Just thinking about it made his heart feel a wave of restless heat.
"Then do you think Aunt should change into a new outfit?"
"I think you can give it a try."

Hearing that Zhao Shumin wanted to try changing her dressing style, Li Ziyan couldn't help but feel a strong sense of anticipation in his heart.
"Then what should Aunt change into?"
"I think we can try high heels and silk stockings first."
"These two things are the most feminine."

Zhao Shumin's gaze involuntarily drifted toward Li Ziyan's drawer. She knew that inside the drawer were Li Ziyan's cherished items.
In reality, Li Ziyan was truly not that kind of person. He had brought Shen Hongmei's black silk stockings and high heels back primarily because those two combat-gear items held commemorative significance.
That was his first life experience, and it was with Aunt Shen, who stood 183 centimeters tall and possessed voluptuous legs!
As for the black silk stockings, Lai Feifei, that fiery, mature dragon-fruit woman, had stubbornly stuffed them into his hands when she was drunk; Li Ziyan did not have any fetish for collecting such things.
He simply wasn't that kind of person.

"High heels, silk stockings... that mistress really likes wearing those kinds of things."
Thinking of that mistress, Zhao Shumin recalled that she was extremely fond of wearing such items.
In her heart, she instinctively felt a strong sense of repulsion.
"Aunt Zhao, you shouldn't have such a resistant mindset."
"That ex-husband of yours is simply not a good piece of work, right? Just because that woman wears them doesn't mean you can't. All of that is in the past."
"I think you would look extremely pretty if you wore stockings and high heels."

Zhao Shumin let out a soft "mhm." Looking into Li Ziyan's eyes, she said firmly, "Xiao Yan, you're right."
"Aunt shouldn't keep dwelling on things of the past."
"I should live in the present."
"Today, Aunt is going to go buy a pair of stockings to try out."

Right after saying this, Zhao Shumin's fair, pretty face began to burn with heat.
Would it really be appropriate for someone like her to wear that kind of thing?
If she wore them and then gave the stockings to Xiao Yan, he probably wouldn't go outside to sneak around anymore, right?

After breakfast, the two arrived downstairs at the residential complex.
Just as Zhao Shumin was about to head to work, Li Ziyan said, "Aunt Zhao, how about a hug?"
"I won't be able to see you all day long, and I'll miss you."

Looking at Zhao Shumin's snow-white skin, Li Ziyan felt a surge of hot blood rushing through him.
"Alright..."
"Okay then."
