Mu Yingchen glanced at him, his voice suddenly growing cold, “How is your brother doing?”
Zhuo Rongxuan snorted, “Him? Just mooching off at home!”
Su Wanxia looked at the expression on his face, her eyebrows knitting together in confusion. Although from their conversation, it seemed he and his brother weren’t blood-related, it still didn’t seem right that he was so indifferent to his brother’s well-being.
“But still, thanks for leaving him a way out. Otherwise, my old man would have raised hell,” Zhuo Rongxuan said with a hint of sarcasm.
How ridiculous, both sons of the same father, yet he showered all his affection on that good-for-nothing illegitimate son.
If it weren’t for his father’s indulgence, Zhuo Ronghao might not have turned out to be such a mess today.
The more Su Wanxia heard, the less she understood, so she directly voiced her doubts, “What happened to your brother?”
Zhuo Rongxuan hesitated upon hearing her question, debating whether to disclose the matter, knowing his brother ended up like this because he messed with Mu Yingchen’s woman.
If he told his current woman about it, Mu Yingchen would inevitably seek trouble with him again.
“Heh, well, he just did something he shouldn’t have, not knowing better,” Zhuo Rongxuan blandly explained.
Su Wanxia promptly rolled her eyes at him. She knew he did something he shouldn’t have; what she wanted to know was what exactly that something was.
“Wanwan, it’s all just some unimportant matter of the past,” Mu Yingchen didn’t want her to continue probing because he knew that incident had left a deep shadow in her heart.
“Okay, alright,” Su Wanxia verbally agreed easily enough, but her curiosity deepened because she distinctly heard Zhuo Rongxuan mention that Mu Yingchen disciplined his brother over a woman.
Was it really because of a woman? She really wanted to know.
“Hey? Mr. Mu, shouldn’t we continue discussing—” Zhuo Rongxuan just began when Mu Yingchen interrupted him.
“It’s after work hours for me now, no business talk.”
Zhuo Rongxuan nodded helplessly, “Alright, I’ll come to the company to find you tomorrow.”
Mu Yingchen neither nodded nor refused, but in Zhuo Rongxuan’s eyes, the matter was already settled.
“Well then, I won’t disturb your lovey-dovey time,” he said, standing up.
Just as he took a step, he glanced curiously at Su Wanxia.
“Miss, can you tell me your name?”
Su Wanxia gave him a look and was about to ignore him, but decided to answer just to mock his foolishness, “Su Wanxia.”
“Oh, Su Wanxia, nice name—” Before he could finish speaking, Zhuo Rongxuan’s mouth dropped open in surprise.
“Su–Wan–xia!” he exclaimed, staring at Su Wanxia with an exaggerated expression as if he’d been shocked by something.
“So it’s you—you’re” he stammered incomprehensibly, realizing that she was the very Su Wanxia herself.
Heavens! He had just been speaking about her in front of her face, and now he didn’t even recognize her.

How utterly embarrassing.
“Hehe, nice to meet you, Wanxia. I’m Zhuo Rongxuan, Mu Yingchen’s good buddy. You must remember me,” he said, moving toward the door as he spoke.
Su Wanxia was torn between laughter and tears; she hadn’t expected Mu Yingchen to have such a ridiculous friend, truly an eye-opener.
“I’m off then, you two carry on with your sweet nothings!” As his voice faded, Zhuo Rongxuan’s figure had completely disappeared from their sight.
Only then did Su Wanxia turn to look steadily at Mu Yingchen, her face stern as she spoke, “Resisting more will be stricter, speaking up might be easier; what did he mean by you disciplining his brother over a woman?”
Mu Yingchen let out a helpless chuckle, raised his hand to stroke her loose long hair, and softly said, “His brother is the one who tried to harm you at Yemei.”
Su Wanxia gasped when he mentioned Yemei, her heart skipping a beat because the incident at Yemei was like a nightmare to her.
“So it was his younger brother—” Su Wanxia murmured.
“It’s alright, it’s been so long, let’s not talk about it anymore,” Mu Yingchen consoled.
Su Wanxia breathed a sigh of relief, hummed in agreement, and then fell silent.
Mu Yingchen extended his arm to embrace her, feeling the sweet scent of her body, and a satisfied smile blossomed at the corners of his mouth.
After dinner that evening, Su Wanxia nestled on the sofa, reluctant to go upstairs, and Mu Yingchen didn’t rush her, just accompanying her in the living room, watching TV.
As the clock struck past nine, Su Wanxia still lay on the sofa, immobile, fixated on the television screen.
Mu Yingchen couldn’t wait any longer, and looking at the person fixated on the TV, he gently spoke, “Wanwan, shouldn’t we go upstairs to rest—”
Actually, Su Wanxia had felt somewhat nervous since dinner, but in an attempt to salvage some dignity, she pretended to watch the television nonchalantly. Now, hearing Mu Yingchen’s words, she couldn’t help but feel embarrassed.
“Hmm, I want to watch a little longer~”
“Good girl, it’s very late; we can watch it tomorrow,” Mu Yingchen said without another word, sweeping her up from the sofa.
Su Wanxia’s heart suddenly began to pound chaotically; somehow, being held by him like this, she felt as if it were their wedding night, stepping into the bridal chamber.
Mu Yingchen saw the shyness on her face and, pleased, curved his lips, carrying her upstairs.
With every step Mu Yingchen took, Su Wanxia’s heart raced even faster.
When he gently laid her on the bed, she found herself at a complete loss due to nervousness.
“I, I’ll go take a bath—” She jumped off the bed in a fluster and scampered toward the bathroom.
Mu Yingchen’s eyebrows lifted, a fond smile crossing his obsidian eyes.
Once Su Wanxia reached the bathroom and closed the door with a snap, she lightly touched her racing chest, took a couple of deep breaths, and then started the bathwater.
She was so nervous. Oh heavens! What should she do?
She touched her forehead. When she was drunk, she knew nothing and didn’t care about being nervous.
But now, she was sober, very sober, so just looking into his eyes made her lose all composure.
Why did she always turn out like this at night?
Su Wanxia couldn’t help but scorn herself internally.
Just as she was pondering whether or not to get out of the bath, the bathroom door clicked open.
She was instantly startled and swiftly turned her head towards the door.
Heavens! Could she get a sty in her eye–
He–how could he just come in like this!
Su Wanxia gulped as she observed Mu Yingchen’s impeccable physique, noting his abs, his arms, that—
She dared not look further down, her face burning hot as if it were on fire, her heart thumping as though it might leap out.
“Let’s bathe together,” Mu Yingchen’s voice was husky and alluring, Su Wanxia’s heart trembled, captivated by the man drawing closer.
When Mu Yingchen stretched out his arms and pulled her into his embrace, she suddenly came back to her senses.
But it was already too late—
The scorching male essence instantly enveloped her, making her helplessly sink into his tenderness—
