This ti, it was Shen Fanyun’s turn to stagger out, leaning against the wall.
Lin iqing, on the other hand, acted as if nothing had happened. She threw on so clothes while still barefoot, then headed to the bathroom to wash up. When she ca out with a towel wrapped around her head, her face was rosy and radiant. Looking like a girl of eighteen or nineteen, she emanated a lively spirit.
"You really wore out," Shen Fanyun complained, lying on his side on the sofa and patting his stomach.
Lin iqing glared at him. "Well, I was waiting for you for days," she chided. "We only did it twice, and you’re already complaining?"
Realizing he had misspoken, Shen Fanyun quickly corrected himself. "Not at all, not at all. If Auntie needs , I’m always at your service." He grimaced, adding with mock-seriousness, "I’ll fight to the bitter end and never retreat."
"Oh, really?" Lin iqing lifted her leg and decisively placed her elegant foot on Shen Fanyun’s shoulder, her tone half-joking and half-serious. "Right now?"
Again? Shen Fanyun’s brow twitched. Thirty-year-old won are frightening, but forty-year-old aunties are downright terrifying!
But then he looked at the stunning Lin iqing before him, at those... those incredibly fair legs, a sight one might see once in a millennium. I wonder what they would look like in stockings? Could they compare with Su Xiyang’s? If both beauties sat before wearing stockings... Shen Fanyun’s heart pounded with unabated excitent. You two might as well just kill now!
"What are you spacing out for?" Lin iqing asked, noticing he was lost in thought.
"You don’t wear stockings, Auntie?" Shen Fanyun asked.
"No," she said, shaking her head. "They’re not convenient for work, and besides, they tear too easily."
"Life is long; it’s important to try different things," Shen Fanyun said philosophically, his eyes darting around mischievously.
Lin iqing imdiately guessed he was up to sothing, but she was still quite willing to satisfy his requests.
"I’ll buy a couple of pairs and wear them for you," Lin iqing agreed, then asked, "What color do you like?"
There are different colors? This touched upon a blind spot in Shen Fanyun’s knowledge; he had always assud stockings only ca in black. He was surprised when Lin iqing inford him that, in addition to black, there were also pink, blue, gray, and of course, seamless skin-toned ones.
"You little pervert," Lin iqing chided with a soft "tsk" before turning to change her clothes.
By the ti their shopping trip ended, it was already evening. Lin iqing had to rush ho to make dinner for Lin Jia, so she left in a hurry. Fortunately, after seeing her off, Shen Fanyun was only a five-minute walk from Su Xiyang’s office. I wonder if Su Xiyang has missed these past few days?
At the company entrance, a woman carrying a designer bag and wearing oversized sunglasses was speaking quietly with a young man decked out in gold and silver, who was holding a bouquet. The woman exuded an air of wealth, clearly no ordinary person. As for the young man, he was tall, slender, and strikingly handso—far more so than his peers and visibly a second-generation heir from a wealthy family.
Shen Fanyun gave them a quick glance and thought nothing of it. Just as he was about to enter the building, the woman impatiently made a phone call. "Xi Yan, I’m right downstairs! Don’t try to brush off by saying you’re busy. I have ti to wait! I’m not leaving today until I see you!"
Hearing the familiar na, Shen Fanyun froze. Hmm? Could that woman be Su Xiyang’s difficult and overbearing mother? My future mother-in-law?
Naturally, Shen Fanyun had no intention of introducing himself. When he arrived at Su Xiyang’s office, he found her hunched over her desk, writing furiously. She didn’t even bother to look up when he appeared. He could clearly see she was in a foul mood; irritation and annoyance were written all over her face.
"So busy?" Shen Fanyun teased.
"Mmm," Su Xiyang humd noncommittally, her head still down.
"Your mom is outside," Shen Fanyun said helplessly.
SWISH!
Su Xiyang’s head snapped up. "How do you know?" she asked, her voice filled with disbelief.
"That’s not what you should be worried about." Shen Fanyun walked over, took her seat, and then gestured for her to sit on his lap.
Su Xiyang seed reluctant, but she obediently sat down anyway.
"Aren’t you going to et her? She’s practically at the gates," Shen Fanyun said, curious to see if Su Xiyang had decided how she was going to handle the woman. Hiding and avoiding her was clearly not a smart move. The most effective way to solve a problem is always to face it head-on. Evasion is pointless.
"I’m so frustrated," Su Xiyang groaned, rubbing her temples.
"What’s there to be frustrated about? I’m here, aren’t I?" Shen Fanyun said.
"This is my business; I don’t need you ddling," Su Xiyang emphasized.
"Alright, alright." He flicked her forehead with his middle finger. "I know you’re afraid of dragging into your troubles, but I told you, I’ll be responsible for you. That ans your business is my business, right?"
Su Xiyang wanted to say sothing but held her tongue.
"My advice," Shen Fanyun continued, "is that since she ca all this way, you should at least treat her to a al. As for her agenda, as long as you refuse, she can’t just drag you to Capital City, can she?"
Su Xiyang saw his point. After all, she was in control of her own two feet; it wasn’t like Wang Qing could kidnap her for the rest of her life. Having thought it through, she imdiately called Wang Qing. Her tone was as cold as ever. "I’m not free today. I’ll treat you to a al tomorrow."
After hanging up, she added, "It seems Wang Qing also brought a guy for a blind date. She’s trying to set up."
"I saw him," Shen Fanyun nodded.
"What?" Su Xiyang’s head throbbed. That woman, Wang Qing, is going too far! This is completely forcing my hand, with total disregard for my feelings! Besides, I will make my own decisions in life, especially without the input of Wang Qing, the venomous woman who abandoned as a child!
"Compared to , he’s not even in the sa league. You wouldn’t be interested in him," Shen Fanyun said with a double aning, simultaneously praising himself and consoling Su Xiyang.
Su Xiyang rolled her eyes. "Shaless."
"I can be even more shaless. Want to see?" Without another word, Shen Fanyun buried his head in the soft curves of her chest.
Caught off guard, Su Xiyang vaguely felt him bite her through her blouse.
"You..." Su Xiyang trailed off, outraged. This is too much! I spent thousands on this outfit! What if he tears it?
While she was fuming, Shen Fanyun seized the opportunity and nibbled again. A tingling sensation spread through her body, and goosebumps rose on her skin.
"Shut up—no, get your filthy mouth off !" Su Xiyang pushed against his forehead, looking fierce yet endearing.
