Wen Wan initially wanted to scold Li Bin, but seeing the car's interior, she was rooted to the spot.
This Mercedes was a true woman-killer. Every woman present was smitten, even Wen Ying's face glowing with envy.
"Brother-in-law～～you're amazing～～I've never seen such a luxurious car～～a Mercedes～～it must be super expensive, right?～～" Yan timidly approached Li Bin, gazing at him with admiration. "Brother-in-law, can I learn writing from you in my spare time? I want to be successful like you～～"
"Of course, Yan, but only if you keep up with your studies. School comes first. Money's not your concern yet. If you hit any trouble, just tell me—I'll sort it out," Li Bin said, smiling, patting her head.
"Brother-in-law～～it was all a misunderstanding before～～don't take it to heart～～I've decided I want to write novels with you. You won't reject me as your student, right?" Yu Yinyan, thick-skinned, came up with a smile to greet Li Bin.

Seeing Yu Yinyan's intimacy flip from contempt to friendly, Li Bin smirked inwardly.
The Du family was full of snobs. Flipping faster than a book—truly birds of a feather.
"Why would I care? It's normal to doubt me. Web novels are a new industry, so skepticism makes sense. Yinyan, you've got talent. Study with me, and you'll surpass me someday," Li Bin said, nodding with an understanding smile.

"Really?! That's awesome! Brother-in-law! No, Master! Hehe～～" Yu Yinyan was like a different person.
From her earlier disdain and indifference to now fawning and cozying up, she acted completely natural, not a hint of shame.
"Heh, this woman's so damn pragmatic," Li Bin thought, shaking his head, getting a read on her character. He had some experience handling women like her.
Li Bin wasn't scared of women who were vain and money-hungry—just those lofty, pure types who didn't care for cash.
Yu Yinyan was clearly a hardcore realist. Why else would she date a useless rich kid like Du Bin? Li Bin could tell she was desperate for money and loved it.
"Wen Lan, you hogging Mom's car? Move over, let Mom feel her new ride," Li Bin teased Wen Lan, who was lost in the car's Manhattan sound system. "No need to be jealous. When you graduate, I'll get you an even better one."
"For real?! Brother-in-law, you better not lie!! You'll really get me one? I don't want anything else—just this one!" Wen Lan nearly threw herself into Li Bin's arms in excitement. He smoothly stepped back, dodging her instinctive hug, patting her shoulder with a laugh. "When have I ever lied to family?"
"Wen Lan, stop messing around! Li Bin's not your husband. He should buy your sister a car, not you. Brat, move—let Mom feel my new car!"
Shen Han, thrilled and satisfied, pulled Wen Lan aside, her plump, perky ass carefully settling into the driver's seat.
Though she'd had her license for years, Shen Han rarely drove cars.
Running her hands over the smooth peachwood steering wheel and high-tech dashboard, Shen Han, who'd always dreamed of a Mercedes, was entranced, tears of joy welling up.
In that moment, she felt overwhelming happiness, her vanity utterly fulfilled.
In all her years, Shen Han had never been so pampered, never so in the spotlight!! Her son-in-law Li Bin had given her everything she'd ever wanted!
Now, looking at Li Bin, he was like the prince charming she'd dreamed of in her girlhood, her destined hero on a cloud of rainbows.
Li Bin's romance brought back her youthful dreams. At this moment, Shen Han was spellbound, as if in a dream, back in her vibrant 20s.
"Brother-in-law, no backing out! I'm waiting for my car! Hehe!～～～" Wen Lan leaned close, hands behind her back, whispering coyly in Li Bin's ear.
