Chapter 726
He was spot on.
Dr. Shen was as dense as a log. Just a moment ago, when she plopped down on his lap, he tensed up like a rock. And those eyes? Full of disdain. If he couldn't stand the sight of them, why did he even bother coming around?

He claimed it was some kind of psychological therapy experiment. But hey, at least he tipped well, which was the only reason the girls put up with it. Today, in a rush, she had roped in a few of the girls. He wanted more, um, intimacy. So, she gathered her courage and cozied up on his lap. But this guy was as unexciting as a monk.

She continued, cigarette bobbing at the corner of her mouth, "Not cool, keeping all the fun to yourself. I've always shared everything with you."
