My classmates' mothers are praying for children; I have a river of mother and child.

Chapter 8: Her Dao Heart Wavers! Auntie is no longer at peace!

After a while.

Su Nan put down her chopsticks, wiped her mouth, and said with a smile.

"Thank you both for your hospitality. I'm full, and it's getting late, so I won't bother you any longer. I'll definitely bring a gift to express my gratitude next time."

Lin Wanguo immediately stood up in response.

"Mr. Su, you're too kind. You've helped us a lot. It's just a meal, no need to be so polite."

Since you have something to do, I won't keep you any longer. Come again anytime; I still have a bottle of my treasured wine. Next time you come, we'll open it and have a drink.

Su Nan nodded with a smile, glancing at Jiang Xue casually, a meaningful smile playing on his lips.

He wasn't lying; he had indeed just "drunk" a bottle of "good wine," which was mellow, rich, and had an unforgettable aftertaste.

If he hadn't been pressed for time, he would have loved to lick the bottom of the bottle clean and swallow every last drop of essence.

Jiang Xue felt his gaze, her heart tightened, her cheeks burned, and her eyes darted away. She quickly lowered her head and pretended to tidy up the dishes to hide her panic.

She was afraid that Lin Wanguo would notice something was wrong, and just wanted Su Nan to leave as soon as possible.

Seeing that Jiang Xue didn't get up to see the guest off, Lin Wanguo gently patted her back and scolded her.

"Xiaoxue! Mr. Su is a distinguished guest. He's leaving, why didn't you say goodbye? That's very impolite."

call?

Jiang Xue sneered inwardly.

How else can she fight?

We've already been completely honest with each other, haven't we?

What's wrong?

The sound of firecrackers and drums is not enough?

She suppressed her anger and sarcasm, giving Lin Wanguo a disdainful look.

"Shut up! I'm tired from cooking and don't want to move. I already thanked Mr. Su while you were asleep."

These words left Lin Wanguo speechless.

He paused for a moment, then smiled.

"Okay, okay, I won't bother you. You rest, I'll go see Mr. Su off."

He remained all smiles, accompanying Su Nan to the door and repeatedly urging him to come again next time.

Watching Lin Wanguo's honest yet obsequious back, Jiang Xue sat at the dining table, feeling a tightness in her chest from anger.

What a fucking piece of trash!

Jiang Xue cursed inwardly.

She was being savored like "fine wine" by the bedside, while he slept like a log, completely unaware.

Afterwards, he happily gave it away, completely unaware of what had happened. His naive and innocent demeanor was disgusting to look at.

It's true what they say, "A big forest has all kinds of birds!"

No, he's not even a man!

There weren't even any birds!

Jiang Xue grew angrier the more she thought about it, wishing she could rush up and slap him.

"Snapped!"

She couldn't hold back any longer and slammed her chopsticks down on the table.

He then stood up, stormed into the bedroom, slammed the door shut, and vented his anger on it.

Lin Wanguo had just seen Su Nan off and closed the door when he heard the door slam shut. Looking at Jiang Xue's back and the tightly closed bedroom door, he was filled with questions.

He scratched his head, looking completely bewildered.

"Wait, why are you suddenly angry? Is cooking that tiring? You were eating perfectly fine just now!"

He really couldn't understand where Jiang Xue's anger came from.

She was just scolding him for oversleeping, how come she's suddenly getting angry?

Did I say or do something wrong?

"I'll definitely learn a couple of dishes someday and see if it's really that tiring."

Lin Wanguo made up his mind.

"I'll cook a lot of dishes so Xiaoxue can get some rest, and also show her that I can take care of her."

If Jiang Xue knew what he was thinking, she would definitely complain.

He doesn't even have a spatula handle, yet he wants to learn how to cook. That's pure wishful thinking!

His stomach growled again, interrupting his thoughts.

He rubbed his stomach, smacked his lips, returned to the dining table, and looked at the steaming food, which immediately gave him a renewed appetite.

He stopped thinking about Jiang Xue's anger; after all, her temper flared up and subsided quickly, and she would be fine once she calmed down.

He picked up his chopsticks and started eating heartily, muttering to himself as he ate.

"It's delicious. Xiaoxue's cooking is still the best for my taste."

He wolfed down his food, completely unaware that Su Nan's scent still lingered on the table.

He didn't realize that his home was no longer as peaceful as he had imagined.

inside the room.

Jiang Xue sat on the edge of the bed, her arms crossed over her chest, which was still heaving, clearly still angry.

But soon, anger was replaced by complicated emotions, and his mind was filled with the images of him and Su Nan, which he couldn't shake off.

The feeling of tension, fear, and anticipation permeates the entire film.

Fearing discovery by Lin Wanguo, fearing disgrace and ruin.

At the same time, they also yearn to escape the dull and oppressive life and crave fulfillment.

After the extreme tension came a mixture of relief and panic, leaving her with a lingering sense of unease and a mind in turmoil.

This feeling was so peculiar; it was something she had never experienced before.

No wonder some people, even knowing it's wrong, still can't help but try it; the feeling of breaking free from constraints fascinates them.

Bah Bah!

Jiang Xue shook her head violently, trying to shake off those messy thoughts.

What is she thinking?

She was forced!

It was Su Nan who took the initiative; she couldn't refuse, and she was also a victim!

Even so, the excitement and lingering feelings in my heart just wouldn't go away.

She couldn't help but let her mind wander.

What would it be like if Lin Wanguo had woken up just now and discovered everything?

Will he be angry?

Will I hit her?

Or will you just swallow your anger and pretend it never happened?

Or, will he join in too?

The moment the thought crossed Jiang Xue's mind, she was startled, and her cheeks instantly burned.

How could she have such an absurd idea?

She is Jiang Xue, a famous ice queen CEO in Jiangcheng. She is decisive and efficient in public, so how could she have become so despicable, with such vulgar thoughts in her mind?

Jiang Xue took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down, but the images and feelings surged in like a tide, making it impossible for her to remain calm.

suddenly!

"Waaaah—!"

The sound of her phone vibrating broke the silence, pulling Jiang Xue back to reality.

She paused for a moment, picked up her phone from the bedside table, and after unlocking it, the coldness on her face intensified.

On the screen, news from southern Jiangsu was prominently displayed.

Aunt Jiang, the food tonight was very much to my liking, thank you. Please feel free to contact me if you need anything, and if not, I'll make sure you do.

"Bang!"

Jiang Xue was so angry that she trembled all over. She slammed her phone on the bedside table and cursed through gritted teeth.

"Damn brat! This is clearly a threat!"

How could she not understand what Su Nan meant?

He was implying that if she didn't behave, he would tell everyone about what happened tonight and ruin her reputation.

Outsiders only believe public opinion, regardless of its truth or falsehood. Once the news spreads, her reputation and her company will be affected.

If she had known this would happen, she shouldn't have made that foolish decision to date that guy!

She originally thought that Su Nan was just a savvy young man who could keep quiet if given some benefits.

She never expected him to be so bold, not only taking advantage of her but also turning the tables on her.

Jiang Xue took a deep breath, picked up her phone, her fingers turning white from the force.

She knew that now was not the time to be angry; she had to calm down and deal with the situation, or she would never have peace again.

Then, she picked up a bath towel, got up, and went to the bathroom.

She wanted to take a shower to calm her panic and restlessness, and wash away the scent of Su Nan and the lingering shame.

She wanted to calm down and think carefully about what to do next.

But as soon as she entered the bathroom and stood in front of the mirror to untie her towel, she inadvertently caught a glimpse of her shoulder.

There were several clear red marks there, left by Su Nan just now.

Jiang Xue was stunned, her eyes instantly becoming complicated.

That kid is really bold!

Are you not afraid of being discovered by Lin Wanguo if you dare to leave such traces?

Or was he deliberately reminding her that she was already his?

But looking at those marks, a strange feeling arose in her heart.

Does leaving these things mean he considers her one of his own?

Is it that you won't easily reveal things to others?

hiss!

Jiang Xue took a deep breath, her mind racing again.

I wanted to calm down by taking a shower, but seeing these marks only made things worse.

The tap was turned on, and hot water gushed out, washing over her body and the marks.

But those marks are like they're etched on my skin, and I can't wash them off no matter what I do.

Just like everything that happened tonight, no matter how she tries to escape it, it is real and cannot be erased.

Hot water slid down my cheeks, and I couldn't tell if it was water or something else.

Jiang Xue closed her eyes, letting the hot water wash over her, but her mind was still filled with those chaotic thoughts and images that lingered for a long time.

She knew that from tonight onwards, her life would never return to normal...
