Chapter 27

The hot springs were built against the mountains, complemented by a five-star hotel and a gym. It was quite a large-scale establishment.

Xiao Yufeng was a minor shareholder; the business had been developed by his father’s long-time friend, a wealthy uncle.

Lin Sheng was waiting for Xu Xieyi in the lounge area by the hot spring pool. Nearby, several other young men were also waiting for their partners.

Chu Yuefei was the last to emerge. He was wearing only a tight
