"Today's alright, I have some free time. The largest batch of medicinal herbs won't arrive at Beijing Station until tomorrow, so I'm not busy at all." Lin Yao felt Long Yihun's hand gripping his shoulder tightly, and after a quick thought, decided he could spend more time with him. "Why?"
"Alright, let's go drinking, to a bar, like we used to, drinking and looking at women."
Lin Yao would certainly not refuse the suggestion. Following Long Yihun's power, he walked towards the door, but suddenly his body stopped and he stopped in his tracks.
"Yaoyao, there's something fishy about the lighter in Ah Long's right trouser pocket. It looks like a spy device. Ask him where it came from."

"Ah Long, you just said that lots of beautiful women are surrounding you these days. Have they all given you love tokens?"
Lin Yao didn't ask about the lighter directly, as Long Yihun was in a bad mood and he didn't want to upset him too much.
No way.
Long Yihun glanced at Lin Yao, a proud expression on his face, as if he were showing off his popularity with women back in his student days. His long-lost wicked smile reappeared. "I'm a rich man now, how can I just accept things from women? Wouldn't that ruin my reputation?"
After a pause, Long Yihun feigned annoyance and glared at Lin Yao. "You know what, a handsome guy like me who can flirt with a thousand women without getting attached, after getting on your ship, how many beautiful women and ladies would be crying their eyes out? You have to compensate me!"
"What does this have to do with me?"
“Of course it’s related!” Long Yihun said righteously. “Minhong’s principles and goals are clearly stated on the homepage. If I don’t take care of my own affairs, how can I face my godparents? I can’t lead the way in breaking the law. I’m the best godson.”
Lin Yao chuckled, thinking to himself that he really felt sorry for this brother, whose relationship with his wife Leng Lian was currently strained. It seemed he had experienced quite a bit of monastic life, and he was deeply moved.
Two brothers in one lifetime. As brothers, they should consider each other's feelings, even if it means sacrificing their own. Long Yihun perfectly embodies the bond between brothers.
"So you bought all your things yourself? Did Leng Lian buy them for you, or was it your administrative assistant?"
“I bought it myself. Now that I have money, I should indulge in some shopping, right? Men also have a shopping addiction, especially when they see the admiring and infatuated eyes of pretty sales assistants and sales managers. It gives them a great sense of accomplishment, and they feel much lighter when they swipe their cards.”
"You're hopeless," Lin Yao said with a laugh, then casually asked, feigning curiosity, "Tell me where you usually shop."
"You want to experience luxury shopping? The sun must have risen in the west! Your entire outfit couldn't possibly cost more than a thousand yuan. Are you asking about these things because you're not planning on living a frugal life anymore?"
Long Yihun chuckled, but inwardly he greatly admired the Lin family's frugality. However, he was unwilling to emulate them; life shouldn't be too hard on oneself. "Look at this jacket, an Italian designer brand, Sissadeeng, 158,000 yuan. Don't buy it, you'll regret it; this belt..."
Long Yihun explained his belongings to Lin Yao one by one, like listing a menu. Now that his status was different, he no longer had the opportunity to do such things. Today, meeting Lin Yao, who was so ignorant, was a good opportunity to show off and made him feel good.
"This lighter... well, my Givenchy suddenly disappeared, and I just grabbed this old Zippo from the villa. Maybe Xiaolian bought it."
Long Yihun suddenly paused, staring blankly at the lighter without saying a word.
His wife, Leng Lian, hadn't bought him a gift in a long time. Could a lighter, unwrapped and casually placed in the villa's living room, be considered a gift? Apart from the cleaning and maintenance company staff, only he occasionally stayed at this villa; Leng Lian almost never came here.
"Let's go for a drink. It's been years since we went to a bar together. Let's get this going!"
Lin Yaoyi put his arm around Long Yihun's shoulder, interrupting his thoughts, and walked towards the door.
The eavesdropping device was likely installed by Leng Lian, or it could be someone else. It's best to wait and see. Anyway, as long as Long Yihun is in Beijing, Xiaocao can monitor his situation at any time. For now, let's not destroy this lighter and use it to fish.
※※※※
"Come on, let's drink!"
Long Yihun clinked glasses with Lin Yao and downed his beer in one gulp. "This is the kind of life that's really great. We brothers drink, go to bars, and watch women together. I wonder when we'll get another chance like this."
Lin Yao is a very busy man. Long Yihun himself is also so busy that he hardly has any personal time, so such an opportunity to get together is indeed rare.
"There will be other opportunities in the future," Lin Yao comforted his brother beside him, thinking to himself that once he dealt with "Morning Mist," there would be plenty of such opportunities, and he could finally enjoy life to the fullest.
As for cultivation, who knows how things will proceed? I'll just take it as it comes. There are no more cultivation techniques after that. Once I've resolved all the troubles, I'll just live like an ordinary person, get married, have children, and enjoy a leisurely life with my family. Maybe I can even go on a date seven times a week with my buddies.
"Ah! Yao, I saw a virgin!"
Long Yihun suddenly spoke loudly, which was quite noticeable in the noisy environment. Not only Lin Yao, but also several men in the seats next to him followed his finger and looked towards the dance floor in the center of the bar. A girl who was wrapped up tightly appeared in everyone's sight. Judging from her awkward swaying movements, she might really be a virgin.
"Dude, how can you be sure that girl is a virgin? There are plenty of girls who don't go clubbing, but virgins at that age are practically extinct."
With the topic of women brought up, a man in his late twenties, whom Long Yihun didn't know, came over and asked him for advice while holding a beer glass.
"This cannot be explained in a sentence or two; it requires both talent and experience."
Long Yihun was still very loud, and the man who came closer could hear him clearly. As for the other party's voice being drowned out by the noisy environment, he had already used a little bit of "human nuclear force" to enhance his hearing, which made Lin Yao, who felt it, both laugh and cry.
This guy actually used "human nuclear power" to do this, what a waste!
Men easily become acquainted when they share common interests. At least a temporary friendship can be formed quickly. Ignoring Lin Yao's presence, Long Yihun enthusiastically mingled with his newly met "like-minded" companions, occasionally clinking glasses with Lin Yao.
"Let me tell you, back in the day, I was known as the 'Jade-Faced Prince.' Within a five-mile radius of the school, every woman, from sixty to sixteen, knew me. It made me feel like a celebrity, having to wear sunglasses every time I went out..."
When Long Yihun let loose, he started bragging without thinking, which made Lin Yao very happy. Looking at the men and women in the brightly lit dance hall, he thought to himself that it was rare for A Long to relax. He had suffered a lot over the years. The fast-paced life he was in now was far from his ideal life. This was obviously helping him. A warm feeling washed over him.
“Yaoyao, Leng Lian is here, along with another woman. There’s a device in Leng Lian’s bag that’s still on. She’s the one who installed the spy device in the lighter.”
The sound of the little grass calmed Lin Yao down.
As long as it's spy equipment provided by Leng Lian, it's fine, and they're not enemies. If there's no danger, there's no need to worry about them; just talk to Long Yihun later.
