Lin Xu's body tensed slightly.
He was only disabled in his legs, but that didn’t mean he had lost all feeling in the most sensitive part of a man’s body.
Even through the blanket, he could feel the pressure—just enough to make him uncomfortable.
His eyes shifted slightly downward, where he could see the restless toes, tinged with a hint of flesh pink, stepping back and forth.
What kind of sick trick did you learn?
Lin Xu's chest heaved, but he couldn’t get a word out for several long moments.
Song Chuyi tilted his head and applied a bit more force with his foot.
"No feeling at all?"
Lin Xu's face flushed red instantly. "W-where did you l-learn this?"
"Did you learn that from your buddies?"
Song Chuyi shook his head. "No."
"And they’re not just any friends."
He hummed softly. "They’re my guys."
As he spoke, his foot kept shifting, pressing down harder.
Lin Xu could feel the pressure intensifying, like Song Chuyi was trying to break him.
"Enough."
He maneuvered the wheelchair backward several steps.
Song Chuyi let out a soft exclamation, his toes curling slightly.
For a second, he thought he felt something hard. But Lin Xu retreated too quickly, and before he could savor the sensation, he was gone.
Now, he probably won’t let me get away with that again.
As expected, Lin Xu backed away several steps, his expression wary.
Song Chuyi smiled and retracted his foot, placing it back on the sofa.
"Shall we continue with Truth or Dare?"
"No more," Lin Xu said darkly, heading towards the bedroom. "I'm going to take a nap."
He didn’t give Song Chuyi a chance to respond, maneuvering the wheelchair away at lightning speed.
In the blink of an eye, Lin Xu's figure disappeared from Song Chuyi's sight.
Song Chuyi laughed, "You can’t handle a little fun, huh?"
His laughter grew more unrestrained, and even Lin Xu in the bedroom could hear it.
Lin Xu looked down at the blanket, which was rumpled more than usual. His face was flushed, and the redness was creeping down to his neck.
He took several deep breaths to calm himself, then moved to the bed, lay down, and closed his eyes, ready for a nap.
His body was telling him that he was already very tired, but his usually calm mind was unusually active at that moment.
But what came to mind wasn’t revenge or memories from his past life. Instead…
It was Song Chuyi’s foot that had been pressing on his leg.
It was so white that it seemed to glow, with faint blue veins visible on the top of the foot. The pale pink toes curled slightly, looking delicate and vulnerable.
Even the temperature was etched into his memory.
Slightly cool, but when it pressed against him, it set him on fire.
Lin Xu tried to calm himself down, but the chaotic thoughts in his mind wouldn’t let him be still.
He couldn’t even keep his body from reacting, let alone calm his mind.
There was no way he could sleep now.

After laughing for a while, Song Chuyi ran down the hill.
The construction team Grandpa Lin sent over was incredibly efficient, having already leveled the road by morning.
Even the bus stop had been repaired.
The big tent at the mall was bustling with people shopping around.
Song Chuyi took the bus to the bubble tea shop he had scouted out the day before.
In just one day, the shop was almost finished with its renovation.
He pulled out his phone and opened the group chat with his crew.
“@everyone Come here quickly.”
He sent a location pin.
Half an hour later, a few young guys with dyed yellow hair stood in front of Song Chuyi, waiting for instructions.
Song Chuyi gestured toward the bubble tea shop, which was still being renovated, and cleared his throat.
“This is my bubble tea shop.”
“But as you all know, my husband is clingy, so I definitely won’t have time to manage it.”
“Now, I’m handing this opportunity over to you!”
“This is the first step for Chuyi Bubble Tea Shop to expand nationwide.”
“When I hit it big, you guys will be the original shareholders.”
The underlings were pumped up, almost ready to charge in and get to work.
After Song Chuyi finished speaking, one underling excitedly asked, "What’s the price for a cup of milk tea? Is it gonna be 200 yuan a cup?"
Song Chuyi tapped the underling on the head, "What are you thinking? It's 2 yuan per cup!"
"Two... two yuan?" the underling asked in shock, "How can we expand nationwide with a price of two yuan?"
Song Chuyi said meaningfully, "You don't understand. It's the mass market that determines the winner."
"Stick with me, and trust me, I won’t leave you hanging."
The underlings exchanged glances.
Even though the boss has been acting a little unreliable lately, they were used to following his lead.
Moreover, Lin Real Estate controlled nearly 90% of the real estate market nationwide, and now Song Chuyi was the wife of Lin Xu, the only heir of Lin Real Estate.
And Lin Xu was always around Song Chuyi. Even if the milk tea store really couldn't continue operating, they still had Lin Real Estate to back them up.
Thinking this way, it seemed like a good opportunity.
"Don't worry, boss. We'll definitely make it work!"
One underling spoke up first, and the others quickly agreed.
Song Chuyi nodded in satisfaction, "I've already contacted a factory that will supply the milk tea powder. They'll deliver a batch every week."
"For now, we'll only sell one type of milk tea."
"For the grand opening, we’re offering a 50% discount, so it’ll be just 1 yuan a cup. Got it?"
The underlings nodded repeatedly.
After giving a few more instructions, Song Chuyi told them to contact him on WeChat if they had any issues, and then left satisfied.
After he left, the underlings gathered together.
"Are we really going to sell it at 1 yuan per cup?"
"If the boss says so, he must have a plan."
"Besides, even if we lose money, it’s not coming out of our pockets."
"That's right, it’s not our money anyway."
"And at 1 yuan a cup, I can hit the milk tea every day."
"Haha, now we can have milk tea whenever."
The underlings all laughed happily.
They were just regular folks from normal families, following Song Chuyi for some pocket money and good food and drinks.
Clearly, milk tea was a hot commodity.
As they looked at the nearly finished milk tea shop, a spark of hope lit up in their eyes, which had once been hardened, indifferent, or fearful.
Song Chuyi returned to the mountain villa, walking with a light and cheerful stride.
Lin Xu was sitting at the end of the small path directly facing the large iron gate. Hearing the sound, he glanced up at him.
"Where did you go this time?"
"The milk tea store." Song Chuyi quickened his steps to stand in front of Lin Xu. "The renovations are almost done."
"I’ve already told my guys that they’ll handle the milk tea shop from now on."
"All I have to do is collect the cash."
Lin Xu’s lips curved into a smile, and he rarely praised, "You’ve got a good head for business.
"You know how to delegate and let others handle the details."
Song Chuyi took the compliment in stride. "Of course, I’m a genius."
Lin Xu raised an eyebrow and asked, "How much are you charging?"
Song Chuyi held up two fingers.
"Two hundred?" Lin Xu nodded. "That's a bit expensive, but it can work if we're going for a high-end route."
"No." Song Chuyi said with a smile. "It's two dollars, and with the opening discount, it's only one dollar per cup."
Lin Xu:……
Lin Xu reconsidered his earlier praise about Song Chuyi’s business sense.
