Chapter 59: After investing for so long, it was time to collect returns.

“Eat it and you can obtain a superpower.”

Shen Yi took out a superpower fruit and said.

When he asked Jiang Nanyan to handle things, he knew he had to give her a reward.

Moreover, since Jiang Nanyan had also succeeded in deceiving Bai Xinyi earlier, giving her a few extra superpower fruits served as compensation.

For someone who already had a superpower, eating a few extra fruits actually didn’t do much.

Superpowers only evolved when they were upgraded.

“Thank you, Honey!” Jiang Nanyan exclaimed, her eyes lighting up as she quickly accepted the fruits.

She hadn’t expected Honey to give her so many superpower fruits!

That was a full four more than what Xu Wanting had received!

Sure enough, the way to please Honey was to gather women for him!

Convinced she had found the secret, Jiang Nanyan thought she must do a thorough job of organizing the shelter, house plenty of female survivors, and then select the beautiful ones for Honey.

That way she could receive even more rewards!

With that thought, she quickly popped several superpower fruits into her mouth.

Instantly, a chilling, electric-like sensation coursed through her body, bringing intense pleasure!

So that was what obtaining a superpower felt like?

Afterward, Shen Yi also taught Jiang Nanyan how to use the superpower.

And he also told Jiang Nanyan that superpowers could be upgraded.

For example, she had eaten five superpower fruits already, so if she ate about five more, her superpower level would increase by one and her power would become stronger.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Nanyan’s face lit up with delight.

No wonder she had felt a slight increase in her superpower with each fruit, even if that feeling wasn’t very obvious.

So it turned out that she had to upgrade to see a real change!

Instantly, she felt even more determined to work hard!

Only by working hard could she obtain more superpower fruits and raise her superpower level!

“As long as my superpower level is higher than Xu Wanting’s and the other women’s, I will have the greatest voice in decisions!”

“Moreover, the higher my superpower level, the more valuable I will be to Shen Yi, and the less likely he would be to abandon me.”

With those thoughts, Jiang Nanyan already had a clear goal.

It didn’t matter who gained a superpower first; what mattered was whose superpower level was higher!

After all, as Shen Yi had said, each upgrade in superpower level doubled its effect.

A level 2 superpower would utterly overwhelm a level 1!

Seeing Jiang Nanyan’s eager expression, Shen Yi was very pleased.

He planned to keep dangling the promise of higher superpower levels to motivate the women, ensuring he would continue to enjoy even better service.

Anyway, Telepathy wasn’t a combat superpower, so even if all his women reached levels 7 or 8, they wouldn’t pose any threat to him.

Instead, it could assist him.

For instance, when recruiting survivors, possessing Telepathy would allow them to screen out anyone harboring hostility or ill intent.

In short, as long as Jiang Nanyan handled her tasks diligently, Shen Yi was ready to make her the first person besides himself to upgrade to a level 2 superpower.

Jiang Nanyan’s reliability in handling matters, combined with her loyalty rivaling that of Xu Wanting, made her well worth investing in.

“Honey, I… I will serve you!”

After gaining the superpower, Jiang Nanyan blushed as she slowly undid her pink nightgown.

Shen Yi had intended to refuse.

However, upon seeing the purple beneath Jiang Nanyan’s nightgown, he fell silent.

Purple had such allure.

Well, that was only natural!

He certainly wouldn’t be sleeping innocently tonight.

That was one side of the story.

Liu Yueyue, on the other hand, felt miserable.

Her mind was full of jumbled thoughts, and she was unable to sleep again tonight.

Shen Yi, once again, had not called for her tonight.

Why?

Could he really dislike me that much?

Although she knew her looks didn’t compare to Shen Yi’s other women, she refused to believe she was ugly.

From middle school through college, she had quite a few suitors.

If she hadn’t been so absorbed in her studies, Liu Yueyue was sure she could have dated 8 or 10 handsome boyfriends.

She was definitely not ugly… in fact, she was pretty!

The problem was that every girl by Shen Yi’s side was at goddess level, making her feel considerably inferior by comparison.

Actually, the main reason was that sleeping with Liu Yueyue wouldn’t unlock any supplies.

So Shen Yi naturally had no interest.

Otherwise, he would have done so long ago.

As for why he still kept Liu Yueyue, it was because Shen Yi had long thought about establishing a shelter and believed he might need someone to do chores, so he kept her.

Otherwise, he couldn’t possibly do everything himself!

The next day.

After waking up, Shen Yi had breakfast with the women and shared his idea of establishing a shelter.

The idea immediately received everyone’s support!

Since they had come under Shen Yi’s protection, the women never lacked food, drink, or safety; with nothing to do but eat and sleep each day, they were bored to death and wanted something to occupy their time.

Moreover, by establishing a shelter, they could deploy its personnel to search for their own families!

None of the women had considered asking Shen Yi to find their families for them.

If they angered Shen Yi, they’d be in trouble.

Of course, aside from that desire to find their families, what mattered even more was the fact that they heard Jiang Nanyan had received five superpower fruits at once as a reward and learned that superpowers could actually be upgraded!

Thus, the women’s enthusiasm was fully aroused!

They also wanted to work seriously to earn superpower fruits!

“As for how many people the shelter should admit, as well as food and housing arrangements, discuss among yourselves to devise a reasonable plan and then show it to me,” Shen Yi said.

He really didn’t want to worry about those trivial matters.

Furthermore, he didn’t know anything about management.

Compared to him, Jiang Nanyan came from a business family and should have experience.

At least she had more experience than he did.

Specialized tasks should be left to professionals; his only role needed to be that of a hands-off boss!

After all, he ultimately held all decision-making authority, so if he was dissatisfied, he could simply veto.

Having roughly arranged the details, Shen Yi then left home.

Before leaving, he left behind five guns and put Su Yun in charge of managing and distributing the weapons.

Since he was going to establish a shelter, it was necessary for his women to have weapons; otherwise, they wouldn’t be able to deal with any bad actors.

“Honey, rest assured, I’ll handle the security at home!” Su Yun nodded earnestly.

Although she still felt uncomfortable about Shen Yi having a harem, Su Yun’s loyalty to him had not wavered in the slightest.

Shen Yi also trusted her very much.

He even gave Su Yun an extra superpower fruit as a reward.

Because the superpower fruit resource had been unlocked through Su Yun, rewarding her with it wasn’t unfair to the other women.

Moreover, Shen Yi simply didn’t care about fairness!

He would reward whoever he wanted to reward.

Leaving home, Shen Yi first went to apartment 1501 and changed the gauze on the two-dimensional streamer Qu Xiaoxiao’s wounds.

After several days of care, her wounds had somewhat healed.

It seemed she was now ready for some light exercise.

After investing for so long, it was time to see the returns!
