Amidst her turmoil, Shen Yi arranged to have a heart-to-heart chat with her friend, naturally bringing up the matter of Su Qing.

"Hey, hey, hey, Sister Nanqing, you can eat meals carelessly, but you can't speak carelessly. Su Qing and I are just ordinary friends, how does that make me a heartbreaker?" Shen Yi retorted, unwilling to admit she had done anything wrong.

Hearing this, the impeccably dressed and composed Wen Nanqing, as poised as a matron from ancient times, shot her a playful glance and laughed, "You're still arguing!"

"I've known you for so many years, and when have you ever sought me out to talk about a man, even visiting his house? Aren't you ashamed? And he's just 22, still a kid!"

The two are not only very good friends but also business partners. Although Shen Yi comes from a well-off family, strictly speaking, she's only middle class, far from wealthy. However, Wen Nanqing in front of her is different, with a wealthy background from a family in the real estate business, though she didn't continue it herself, as not everyone has a talent for business.

Now, she relies on renting out her numerous properties, owning several in Jiang City alone, mostly in prime city center locations, making her a bona fide landlord. Her main hobby is buying and investing in real estate.

Even the initial funding for Shen Yi's company was largely contributed by her, as the three of them, including another friend, started the company together.

However, Wen Nanqing knows her limits and never involves herself in company decisions, only taking dividends from her shares, leaving the rest to Shen Yi and another shareholder, making her life easy and carefree.

"How am I shameless when I'm honest and open? Besides, I just find his voice pleasant, it gives me a special feeling, like a tingling in my heart every time I hear it, something I've never felt before," Shen Yi defended herself, though her voice became gradually softer.

"Are you sure it's your heart tingling and not somewhere else?"

Hearing this, Shen Yi pretended to hit her, and Wen Nanqing quickly raised her hands:

"Haha, okay, okay, but 22 is too young, still immature, you know my story of meeting the wrong person?"

"Even though he saved you once, you can't dedicate yourself to him because of that. Take my advice, just have some fun, don't get serious. If things don't work out, you can just give him a breakup fee, ouch~"

Upon hearing this, Shen Yi's eyes widened, momentarily unsure who the real heartbreaker was.

In her eyes, Wen Nanqing has always been the knowledgeable and understanding ideal wife and mother, gentle and not domineering, the type most men would consider perfect. Yet here she was, suggesting Shen Yi just play the field, which truly opened her eyes.

And what kind of breakup fee was that supposed to be? It made her feel like one of those terrible women who start relationships without caring, play with the feelings of naïve young men, and then abandon them.

"Sister Nanqing, you sound just like my assistant. I really didn't mean it that way. It's just making a friend. Surely, I can't just ignore the fact that he saved me once, can I?" Shen Yi rolled her eyes in exasperation.

As a voice aficionado, she was simply drawn to Su Qing's voice in an involuntary physical way, but definitely not romantically, that she was sure of. Why did everyone react so strongly as soon as they heard he was a guy in his early twenties?

"What did your assistant say?" Wen Nanqing asked curiously.

"She said these young folks aren't reliable, worried I'd be swindled out of money and affection!"

Hearing this, Wen Nanqing burst into laughter, waving her hand, "No way, no way, it's not like you're short of money, and as for affection~~ it's not clear who will win in that field, young people can be quite a handful, be careful, hahaha!"

Clearly, even a composed woman in her thirties who has been married carries quite a few wild words in her.

In her view, if Shen Yi did get involved with a young guy, she wouldn't be deceived. After all, with all her life's experience, even if taken advantage of, it would be with her consent, perhaps even initiated by her. After all, young boys aren't as conniving.

Even Shen Yi, a strong woman, blushed at these words: "Sister Nanqing, if you keep talking nonsense, don't blame me for dealing with little Wen Yun then!"

Wen Yun is Wen Nanqing's five-year-old daughter, attending senior kindergarten, and after her divorce, she changed the child's last name to her own.

"I'm not scared. Besides, Little Yun has been crying to see you these days. If you really like her, I'll lend her to you for a few days. I could use a break, and you'll see how tiring it is when you have kids!" Wen Nanqing laughed.

Kids at this age really are little terrors; those without children just can't understand.

Seeing Shen Yi's helpless expression, Wen Nanqing continued, "Alright, alright, I won't tease you anymore. In matters of the heart, make your own decisions. Whether young or mature, the most important thing in a man is responsibility. You don't lack money, so just look at the person. Cultivating a boyfriend can be a fun experience, right?"

"You're still going on..."

Shen Yi couldn't understand; she's just a simple voice enthusiast, not some pervert luring unsuspecting young men. Why was everyone making fun of her like this?

Meanwhile, at a foot massage parlor called Qingshuiwa Platform, Su Qing and Wang Xing were each lying on a bed!

"Ah!!! It hurts, hurts, take it easy!"

"I can't take it, no more, aaahh!"

Screams of mercy echoed continuously in the private room, overpowering the sound of the TV.

"Young man, your health isn't great; your kidneys are quite weak!" An older woman standing by the bed, chuckled.

On Wang Xing's side, another middle-aged man was pressing hard and laughed, "Mine's even more severe. What's up with the youngsters these days, all with weak kidneys?"

Hearing this, Su Qing and Wang Xing stopped their screams abruptly and kept silent, enduring it stoically—no man could withstand such humiliation.

Sweating profusely, faces flushed, the woman by the bed finally chuckled, "Your heart's not bad, not a murmur!"

"Your lungs are healthy too, definitely a non-smoker!" added the old man.

Upon hearing this, the two began wailing again, complaining about the sudden change in tactics.

Finally, unable to endure any longer, Su Qing, drenched in sweat, spoke, "Lady, take it easy, even iron kidneys can't stand such pressing."

"You should've said so earlier, no need to show off." The woman chose not to expose him, having seen many show-offs at the foot massage joint.

Feeling the pressure ease, Su Qing couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, turning his head with a grin, "Hey, how are you?"

"You... you jerk... I don't... feel a thing!" Wang Xing trembled, biting his teeth.

The old man wasn't pleased hearing this: "You could've said the pressure was light? Trust me, I earn this money fair and square, with full effort!"

With that, he applied more force.

"Ah~!!!!!!!"

A piercing scream erupted, with Wang Xing sitting bolt upright on the bed, as Su Qing laughed heartily on the side:

"Mr. Kidney Deficiency, are you okay?"

Before Wang Xing could retaliate, the private room door was slammed open, and in walked Du Qiang wearing a police uniform:

"Nobody move, routine check!"

Everyone inside was startled.

Seeing the two's faces, Du Qiang's expression shifted, then he quietly took out his phone:

"Sister Li, your brother's at the foot massage place, come quickly!"

Su Qing:...
