Oh no! My grandmother made me shoulder the responsibility for eight households!

Chapter 513 Lin Chen's Genius Idea

In the days that followed, Lin Chen began paying off his debts.

It wasn't that he wanted to pay back the money; it was that creditors lined up at his door to demand it.

After Liu Ruyan and Qin Shuyan urged them to conceive, Xiao Yulou and the other women also became anxious.

Lin Chen didn't know why they were in such a hurry, but he would pamper his own wife.

As a result, Lin Chen had to hold onto the wall to walk when he came out of each room.

Lan Fenghuang couldn't stand it anymore and said, "Husband, you should rest," and then she took it herself.

Liu Shengxue was very polite, saying, "No rush, no rush."

Then she pulled Lin Chen to the bed.

Yao Yao was even more direct, saying without any attempt to hide her feelings, "I want one too."

The most terrifying thing is Chi Meng; every time, Lin Chen is the one being forced.

It wasn't Lin Chen who took the initiative; it was Chi Meng who sneaked over in the middle of the night, crawled into his bed, and then—

The next morning, Lin Chen almost couldn't get out of bed.

My legs were so weak they felt like noodles; I was practically floating when I walked.

Lan Fenghuang supported him and sighed, "Lord Palace Master, could you be a little gentler?"

Chi Meng remained expressionless: "It's because he's incapable."

Lin Chen: "???"

What's wrong with me? You're just too intense, okay?!

It was only because Wen Ruoxi had just given birth, Su Xiaoxiao wasn't in a hurry, and Ling Bo had no ideas that Lin Chen had a chance to recover.

After entertaining the official wives, there's a second wave.

Liu Sheng Piao Piao, Shan Ling Kong Ya, A Yue, Da Shuang, Xiao Shuang, Shi Shi, Shi Shi.

Qin Xin has four daughters, and Qing'er has five daughters.

Lin Chen even made time to visit Yang Mimi and the Empress.

Yang Mimi saw Lin Chen, paused for a moment, then smiled: "You finally remembered me?"

Lin Chen said, "I've been too busy lately."

Yang Mimi said, "Busy having babies?"

Lin Chen paused for a moment, then said, "Could you please not be so blunt?"

Yang Mimi smiled, took Lin Chen's hand, and pulled him into the house.

The Empress's side was even more direct.

As soon as Lin Chen entered, the Empress put down her memorial and glanced at him.

"You're here?"

"They're here."

"Getting down to business?"

"Get down to business."

The two people looked at each other.

The empress stood up and pulled Lin Chen toward the bed in the side hall, looking nothing like a pregnant woman.

……

That day, Lin Chen was sitting in his study.

I took a piece of paper and wrote down the names one by one.

Liu Ruyan, Chu Yueyao, Qin Shuyan, Xiao Yulou, Wen Ruoxi, Ye Qingying, Murong Xue, Su Xiaoxiao, Zhao Mingyue.

Blue Phoenix, Willow Snow, Yao Yao.

Lingbo, Liusheng Piaopiao, Shanling Kongya, Ayue, Dashuang, Xiaoshuang, Shishi, Shishi.

Qin Xin has four daughters, and Qing'er has five daughters.

Ba Tuo Mingzhu, Ba Tuo Baozhu, Amuyi...

Yang Mimi, Empress.

There's also Chi Meng, who randomly barges in without following the rules.

Lin Chen put down his pen and counted.

Thirty-seven.

Lin Chen leaned back in his chair, looked at the ceiling, and calculated the time.

Even if you accompany one person a day, it would still take more than a month to complete the round.

Those who got on the first turn were probably so eager they were practically green with envy, howling like wolves that hadn't eaten for a month.

Lin Chen felt that he wasn't just picking a card, he was going to work.

Lin Chen felt this wasn't a solution, so he gathered all the women together.

Thirty-seven people, plus maids and servants, were crammed together.

Lin Chen stood in the middle and cleared his throat.

"I have an idea I'd like to share with everyone."

Liu Ruyan raised an eyebrow: "What are your thoughts?"

Lin Chen took a deep breath, "Let's sleep under the same quilt, sharing the spoils equally!"

He spoke in a very serious manner, his expression as solemn as if he were in a meeting.

It seems he wasn't referring to "everyone sleeping together," but rather "the company going public."

The main hall fell silent for a moment as everyone stared at Lin Chen; the air suddenly became still.

Lin Chen felt a little flustered.

But he didn't show it on his face.

Yao Yao was the first to respond, "It should have been done a long time ago."

She looked at Lin Chen and smiled meaningfully, "It saves my husband from running around every night, and it saves me from waiting in vain."

Lin Chen mentally gave Yao Yao a thumbs up—what a wonderful wife!

Other women have more or less had the experience of sleeping in the same bed with someone.

But they were all people I knew well.

For example, Liu Ruyan and Qin Shuyan lived together, and Xiao Yulou and Chu Yueyao lived together.

But Lin Chen's proposal now clearly indicates that he's not distinguishing between "yours" and "mine," and that everyone is involved.

Some people blushed, lowered their heads, and remained silent.

Some people pretend to drink tea, raising the teacup to their lips but not drinking it for a long time.

Some people are looking out the window, as if there's something interesting to see outside.

Lingbo remained expressionless, leaning back in her chair and staring straight ahead, as if she hadn't heard anything.

But the tips of her ears were slightly red, though it wasn't noticeable unless you looked closely.

Lin Chen noticed it, but he didn't dare to say anything.

Lingbo's lack of objection meant she agreed.

Chi Meng remained expressionless and silent.

Lin Chen didn't intend to seek her consent; after all, she was just a passerby.

Besides, she doesn't care about formalities; she'll come when she's supposed to.

Liu Ruyan remained silent for a moment, looked at Lin Chen with a helpless expression in her eyes, and then nodded.

Zhao Mingyue rolled her eyes and put down her teacup: "I have no objection."

Xiao Yulou then added, "I have no objection either."

Qin Shuyan thought for a moment and said, "I have no objection."

Chu Yueyao snorted: "You got off easy."

Murong Xue smiled and said, "I have no objection."

Su Xiaoxiao raised her hand: "I have no objection either."

The others nodded one after another.

Some agreed, some disagreed, but in the end everyone agreed.

Lin Chen's life suddenly became much easier.

I don't have to change locations every night anymore. Before, I would run around to several courtyards in one night, like I was delivering takeout.

There's no need to calculate who's on today's turn. Before, I had to take out the booklet and flip through it every night, like checking a class schedule.

No more resentful looks. Before, no matter whose place I went to first, everyone else would have a "why didn't you come to my place first?" look on their faces.

It also saves you the trouble of feeling guilty.

Anyone who misses him can come over.

No need to queue, no need to make an appointment, no need to wait for a number.

It's like a buffet; you can take whatever you want to eat.

No need to greet me, no need to be polite, no need to ask for permission.

There is also much more harmony among the women.

Those who used to secretly compete and dislike each other have become sisters after this incident.

Chat before bed, gossip, and tell jokes.

The atmosphere was as nice as a girls' night out.

Lin Chen lay in the middle, eyes closed, listening to their conversation, feeling like he was the one who was superfluous.

However, I was secretly delighted, thinking I was a genius.

Every night I lie among a group of women, close my eyes, and smell all sorts of fragrances.

Osmanthus, jasmine, gardenia, sandalwood, medicinal scents...

When mixed together, it doesn't smell pungent; instead, it has an indescribable pleasant aroma.

Listening to all kinds of breathing sounds—

Uniform, uneven, light, heavy, varying speed.

Lin Chen had only one thought in his mind—this is what it means to live life.

What extraterrestrial passage, what calamity of heaven and earth, what ancient demonic corpse?

To hell with them all.

But Lin Chen knew the truth in his heart.

These peaceful days won't last long.

In Zhongzhou, the cracks are still widening.

Extraterrestrial creatures continue to emerge, growing more numerous and stronger each day.

Zhang Yiyuan said that a True Lord-level expert would arrive in less than a month.

There are only a few days left.

At that point, he will have no choice but to take action.

He received nine years of compulsory education.

My teacher once taught me: When you are poor, you should cultivate your own virtue; when you are successful, you should help others.

He was neither a saint nor a villain.

He couldn't get past his own conscience if he didn't take action.

Lin Chen opened his eyes and looked at the roof.

Moonlight streamed in through the window, spilling onto the shoes scattered on the floor.

Various colors and styles were neatly arranged.

Lin Chen's lips curved slightly, then he closed his eyes.

go to bed.

Let's talk about tomorrow's problems tomorrow.
