"Hmm, you called to dinner, how could I not co?"
Shen Yuan studied her profile—skin fair and delicate, nose elegant and straight. Apart from the fine beads of sweat on her face, it was tinged with a soft blush; he couldn't tell if it was due to the heat in the kitchen or her shyness. Her lips, especially, were like ripe cherries, tempting one to take a couple of bites.
Damn, they must taste sweet.
Su Xuewei kept cooking while furtively keeping an eye on Shen Yuan. Noticing him inch closer through the corner of her eyes, she quickly said, "My mom's outside."
Shen Yuan chuckled, "Why are you so flustered? I'm not going to take advantage of you."
Su Xuewei's soft pink lips parted slightly—she wanted to retort, "You say that every ti, but end up sneaking an advantage while I'm not looking."
In the end, though, she was too shy to argue back.
Su Xuewei prepared four dishes and a soup. As soone who had been cooking regularly and held herself to high standards, she was deed passable by the discerning gastronomic standards of Shen Yuan.
"You should install an air conditioner in the kitchen. It's way too hot to cook in the sumr."
Shen Yuan remarked as he picked up so food.
"No need."
Su Xuewei gently shook her head. "It's not that hot."
"Not that hot, you say? You were drenched in sweat earlier. If you don't care, I do." Shen Yuan raised his eyebrows, his tone leaving no room for objection. "I'll arrange for it. Soone will co install it."
"Got it."
Su Xuewei lowered her beautiful gaze silently.
"Have you taken your driving license test yet?" Shen Yuan asked again.
"No."
"Then I'll arrange for you to get one. Riding an electric scooter to work every day isn't great."
"Shen Yuan, I ride an elec—"
Shen Yuan interrupted her, "You can keep riding the scooter, but it needs to have four wheels."
Su Xuewei lowered her head once more. Hearing this, however, Su Jingjie grew excited, lifting his little head to ask, "Brother-in-law, are you going to buy my sister a four-wheeled car?"
"Ahem."
Su Xuewei flushed red and nearly choked, whispering, "Xiaojie, you can't call him brother-in-law just yet."
"But why, sister?"
Su Jingjie blinked innocently, "If I don't call him brother-in-law, he won't buy a toy car."
"Ahem."
Shen Yuan also grew embarrassed and quickly stopped him, "Alright, Xiaojie, that's enough."
Mother Su rely smiled kindly, saying nothing. Her gaze lingered on the three of them, a hint of tenderness clearly visible in her eyes.
After dinner, Xiaojie pushed Mother Su to the garden downstairs for a stroll, while Su Xuewei washed the dishes. Shen Yuan, anwhile, was lounging on Su Xuewei's bed, rolling back and forth.
"Why does her room sll so nice?"
Shen Yuan sniffed around like a dog—it was hard to say whether the scent ca from her shampoo, body wash, or perhaps the natural fragrance of Su Xuewei herself. It even contained a faint trace of milkiness, making him unwilling to leave the room.
After rolling around for quite a while to ensure his sll lingered on the bed, Shen Yuan sat down at her desk. Neatly arranged books were stacked on top.
They included professional titles like *"Design Principles: Be Your Own Interior Designer"* and *"Essential Guide to Color Matching for Interior Designers,*" as well as classics like *"Pride and Prejudice"* and *"Jane Eyre."*
"Looks like this girl has quite a rich inner world."
Shen Yuan nodded in approval. Then he opened Su Xuewei's wardrobe and inspected her clothes.
"Pretty plain, I see. Mostly jeans and casual pants, hardly any dresses. Even her bras are solid-colored without any patterns or design."
Shen Yuan wasn't a pervert and had no habit of swiping people's undergarnts. But just as he was about to close the wardrobe, he noticed a small pouch pressed beneath a pair of pants.
Curious, Shen Yuan picked it up for a look, and his gaze froze—it contained a set of sheer lace lingerie. Purple, intricately patterned, finely textured, and nice to the touch.
This girl actually bought such racy lingerie? Doesn't seem like her style.
Shen Yuan felt the need to confirm whether she had worn it before, and instinctively brought it closer to sniff. It had the distinct scent of new fabric and no trace of detergent.
But just then, the door creaked open. Shen Yuan turned his head, and their eyes t.
Su Xuewei had caught Shen Yuan sniffing her bra. Her whole body stiffened at first, then she blushed and glared angrily. She quickly snatched it from his hands and carefully put it back into the pouch.
"Why... why were you holding my underwear?" Su Xuewei's voice was heated as she spoke.
"Ahem."
Shen Yuan scratched the back of his head, "I was bored and happened to take a look. Don't get the wrong idea; I'm not so kind of pervert."
Su Xuewei pouted in grievance, placed the pouch back in its original spot, and kept looking at him. After a mont of thought, she relocated the pouch to another corner of the wardrobe.
"Why did you buy this set?"
Shen Yuan asked curiously, "I an, it doesn't seem to match your usual style."
Su Xuewei said nothing, the blush on her face extending to the base of her neck.
"What? Got so sort of hidden secret?"
Shen Yuan pulled Su Xuewei to sit on the bed and wrapped an arm around her shoulders. His hand began wandering between her shoulder and arm.
Su Xuewei sat stiffly, lowering her gaze as she murmured, "No."
"Then why?"
Shen Yuan's hand slid brazenly to her slim waist. "Spit it out, or I'll tickle your chest."
"No, stop, I'll tell you!"
Su Xuewei's waist squird slightly in protest as she instinctively shielded her chest with her hands. "You ntioned last ti that my lingerie was too plain, so I bought one set. I haven't gotten the nerve to wear it yet, nor to wash it—I'm afraid my mom might see."
Shen Yuan chuckled, "How about you wear it for tonight?"
"Tonight… how would I?"
Su Xuewei blinked her clear, beautiful eyes, subconsciously thinking she had already worn other lingerie today, so wouldn't it make sense to wait until tomorrow or another ti?
