102: Each of the four women harbored her own secrets.

The Tan Palace villa is structured with two underground floors and three floors above ground.

The basement houses entertainment facilities such as a gym, a cinema, and a bar.

The first floor contains the maid's quarters, the dining room, the kitchen, the living room, and an activity room.

The second floor consists of guest suites and a family activity area.

The third floor is the luxurious master bedroom suite!

Cao Lang had already reached the master bedroom, stripped off his clothes, and started showering.

Wang Tangtang, Ye Wanqing, Xue Ziqi, and Xu Yizhen were all arranged to stay in the bedrooms on the second floor.

The night was seductive, the lights were out, and the laughter from the earlier gathering had faded; the entire Tan Palace had fallen into silence.

In this villa area with only 18 super-luxury mansions, every single one was home to a top-tier wealthy owner.

Here, sleep did not come easily... As the four women entered their bedrooms, the haziness in their eyes instantly diminished, replaced by clarity.

They all understood.

This was an opportunity, but also a battle!

Everyone was a rival. To put it bluntly, whoever could climb into Cao Lang's bed tonight would be the ultimate winner!

Before entering her bedroom, Wang Tangtang fought against her heavy eyelids and asked Butler Li to bring her a cup of sobering tea.

Now was not the time for sleep!

Wang Tangtang once had a one-night stand with Cao Lang. After their 'anaerobic exercise,' she had foolishly taken a contraceptive pill; looking back now, she really was as stupid as they come!

If she had 'hit the jackpot' back then and given Duo Duo a younger brother, why the hell would she still be filming? She would have moved straight into Tan Palace to focus on her pregnancy!

Now that there were three other predatory women outside, if she didn't use some tactics, her already precarious position would likely be even more insecure.

She only blamed herself for her narrow vision and lack of insight back then, not realizing that Cao Lang was such a catch!

Tonight was a great opportunity; if she missed it, who knew how long she'd have to wait... Standing before the mirror, Wang Tangtang twisted her body a few times, admiring her own sexy physique.

Today, she wore low-waist jeans and a black, tight-fitting, slanted-collar T-shirt. The transparent inner straps on her shoulders showcased a mature sexiness unique to her.

This TikTok sexy goddess had captivated thousands of shut-ins and was the 'enlightenment teacher' for many men late at night. Her advantage was her body, something Wang Tangtang never forgot.

She remembered that last time, Cao Lang was particularly fond of her... like an old ox burying its head to plow the field.

Silent, doing nothing but working hard.

At this thought, Wang Tangtang's face flushed, and she felt quite proud!

She opened her photo album and sent all the meticulously filmed videos and photoshoots to Cao Lang.

These were her best 'hidden treasures,' meant only for Cao Lang's eyes... Once he saw the messages, perhaps he would let her sleep in the master bedroom tonight!

...Meanwhile, in the room next to hers.

Xue Ziqi had already come out of her room and hurried over to Xu Yizhen's; the two had gathered together!

These two had long since formed an alliance. As outsiders, they had almost never had any private contact with Cao Lang.

People strive for higher ground while water flows to the lower.

These two 'sister flowers' also had their own ideas.

"Ziqi, do you think we'll have a chance staying here tonight?"

"What's there to fear? Opportunities are created! Do you have the guts to do something big?"

Xue Ziqi was tall, with wavy hair draped over her shoulders, exuding the aura of a mature 'big sister.' At this moment, she displayed extraordinary decisiveness!

"You mean... the two of us together?"

"Exactly, together!"

"But we've already come to the bedrooms to sleep. How can we get in touch with CEO Cao?"

"Are you silly? We can just go find CEO Cao to 'discuss the script' together."

Xue Ziqi and Xu Yizhen, one sitting on the edge of the bed and the other on a chair, looked serious as they discussed tonight's strategic plan!

"Then do you think Wang Tangtang and Ye Wanqing will take action? Doing this right under their noses... wouldn't it be unethical?"

Xu Yizhen smoothed her hair, looking worried. She felt a sense of guilt, as if she were seducing a decent man.

"Sister! Whether they act or not has nothing to do with us! Let me ask you, do you want to feel CEO Cao's eight-pack abs?"

Xue Ziqi looked at her with frustration, as if she were hopeless, and shook Xu Yizhen's shoulders vigorously.

"Hehe, I do..."

Xu Yizhen had a look of infatuation on her face.

"Wait! How do you know CEO Cao has abs?!"

Xu Yizhen's expression quickly returned to normal as she questioned, "Have you already slept with CEO Cao?"

"Oh, I'm just guessing. Look at CEO Cao's 'male dog waist'—he definitely has abs! And he's surely got stamina!"

Xue Ziqi gave her a playful punch, and the two shared a knowing smile.

These two, one born after 2000 and the other after 1998, one specialized in playing 'bad women' and the other 'good women.' As two Short Drama Queens, they knew a lot!

"Then, if our plan really works, make sure to give me a hand when you're ahead."

"Don't worry, sister. I'll definitely let you enjoy the first taste while it's hot."

"Oh, you're terrible."

Fueled by the alcohol, bold and suggestive words flowed freely between them, accompanied by constant laughter.

The brave enjoy life first; the higher the social circle, the lower the sense of morality.

They felt that no man could refuse two women serving him at once, right?

This was their advantage!

Shame, morality, and traditional virtues had no place here.

This was Tan Palace! A top-tier luxury mansion costing 560,000 per square meter!

The small bedroom they were in alone was worth tens of millions.

If one were to actually talk about morality here, they would be truly beyond stupid.

Xu Yizhen let go of her psychological burden and planned to go all out with Xue Ziqi!

Now, looking at Ye Wanqing's side.

She was also struggling internally about whether she should take the initiative.

The current situation was murky and changing rapidly.

The entire Tan Palace was like a game of Werewolf where everyone 'closes their eyes when it's dark.'

Everyone was locked in their own small rooms, completely unaware of what was happening outside.

"Xue Ziqi and Xu Yizhen—these two actresses clearly have designs on Cao Lang. They stayed behind just to fish in troubled waters."

"Wang Tangtang is one of the female leads Cao Lang personally handpicked. Given her background, she probably slept her way to the top."

Ye Wanqing held the toilet and used her fair, slender fingers to tickle her delicate throat, vomiting up the contents of her stomach. She felt much more sober.

Everything that happened today had made her heart flutter for Cao Lang!

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say she had fallen in love.

Previously, she didn't believe such an ideal man existed in the world—talented, handsome, good-natured, and wealthy!

Now that she had a deeper understanding of Cao Lang, her desire for love, like a spark, had completely set her ablaze!

Now, Ye Wanqing faced a very practical problem.

Should she take the initiative or not!

If she took the initiative, she would have to give herself to him tonight, and it wasn't certain if she could capture Cao Lang's heart!

But there were three 'she-wolves' outside, watching like hawks.

If she didn't act, others would!

This was the famous Chain of Suspicion theory!

You simply cannot confirm if the other party is well-intentioned, nor can you confirm if they believe you are well-intentioned. Neither side can know the other's true intentions!

If you don't take the initiative and someone else does, you'll lose the first-mover advantage.

So the final conclusion was: she must take the initiative!

If she didn't, she would just be letting others benefit!
