The damp towel slid slowly across her exquisitely beautiful face, and the strange feeling in Yin Chaomu's heart grew stronger and stronger.

Shen Zhao's movements were careful and gentle, meticulously wiping away all the tear stains and dust from Yin Chaomu's face, as if she were caring for a pet she had raised for a long time.

Finally, when the face covered in filth was fully revealed, Shen Zhao's gaze was drawn to it as if by a magnet.

He couldn't help but reach out and gently touch Yin Chaomu's cheek, as if afraid of breaking the beauty of this moment.

The sensation at your fingertips is as smooth and silky as silk, so smooth that you almost don't want to leave.

This wonderful tactile sensation traveled along the nerves to the brain, immersing Shen Zhao completely in it and making him forget everything around him.

He gently stroked her skin, feeling its smoothness and warmth.

At the same time, under Shen Zhao's gentle caresses, Yin Chaomu's breathing gradually became rapid, and he was unable to react for a short time.

"Auntie, why do you think beautiful women always attract men's affection?"

Especially someone like you, an elder, is so beautiful, so breathtakingly beautiful.

If you were to set aside your identity as a mother, tell me, would you be willing to give up everything to pursue the true meaning of happiness?

As they were talking, Shen Zhao's slender fingers lightly touched Yin Chaomu's delicate chin.

His movements were gentle and graceful, as if he were afraid of hurting the person in front of him in the slightest.

With a slight exertion of force in the finger joints.

"Um……"

With a soft moan, Yin Chaomu's head, which had been hanging low, was slowly lifted upwards.

The moment she opened her eyes, she met Shen Zhao's burning, desire-filled gaze.

For a moment, her heart began to race uncontrollably, pounding like a deer's.

Under Shen Zhao's gaze, Yin Chaomu's beautiful face shone even brighter in the afterglow of the setting sun, and her eyes revealed a heartbreaking helplessness and confusion.

"No, this is my daughter's husband, you can't!"

Yin Chaomu understood the deep meaning contained in those eyes and knew that he must not be allowed to continue.

However, she did not show the slightest resistance or dissatisfaction in the face of Shen Zhao's domineering yet intimate actions.

Instead, she seemed to have long been accustomed to this treatment, silently accepting everything, as if a strange power was deeply attracting her to Shen Zhao.

At this moment, Yin Chaomu herself was unaware that she had become a puppet to be manipulated, falling into a carefully laid trap.

Shen Zhao suddenly cupped Yin Zhaomu's face in her hands: "Auntie, you are so beautiful. The first time I saw you, I was captivated and couldn't control myself."

Because of my status, I've kept these feelings buried deep inside. But now, seeing you again, I truly can't control myself.

Yin Chaomu's pupils dilated, and she abruptly pushed Shen Zhao away, shaking her head vigorously: "I am your mother-in-law, how could you have such thoughts about me?"

Shen Zhao stepped forward and casually put his arm around her soft, boneless waist.

"ah……"

Yin Chaomu lost her balance and leaned directly into the man's arms.

"I know I'm doing this to hurt her, but Auntie, I really can't control my true feelings."

"Besides, I can tell that your aunt hasn't been happy these past few years. Why don't I take care of you and help you?"

"Please, stop talking, please stop talking."

Yin Chaomu kept shaking her head, trying to break free from Shen Zhao's embrace.

"You can't betray Yunying; you're her husband."

Upon hearing this, Shen Zhao smiled and leaned closer to Yin Chaomu's cheek.

"Auntie, you must be lonely too, right? I've known that for a long time."

"You're lying, I... I didn't..."

"Don't deny it, Auntie. I can see from your eyes that you are very empty and very afraid right now."

"No, I didn't, please stop talking, please let me go..."

The man's hot, masculine breath gradually threw Yin Chaomu's thoughts into disarray.

"We can't do it, we really can't."

As a result, Shen Zhao wrapped his other arm tightly around Yin Chaomu's slender waist, leaving her with no way to retreat.

Feeling both ashamed and angry at the sight of his handsome face so close to hers.

His eyes held both expectation and the immense pain of betrayal.

This feeling caused her great distress.

“Auntie, I will not betray Yunying. As long as you don’t say anything and I don’t say anything, no one will know about our relationship.”

As Shen Zhao finished speaking, he looked up and glanced at a patch of Gobi Desert not far away.

"Auntie, let me ease your pain and let you experience what it feels like to be a woman again, okay?"

"No, no, we really can't do this! Stop right now, or I'm going to scream..."

“Go ahead and shout. Even if you bring Yunying here, I will tell her to her face that I love her and you, and that I will treat them equally.”

"Don't say that. My daughter won't agree to this, and she won't forgive me. Let me go..."

Yin Chaomu pleaded desperately, but his body language betrayed him, and Shen Zhao embraced him as they walked toward the Gobi Desert.

She knew perfectly well that once she entered that Gobi Desert, her relationship with her husband would be completely changed.

How can I face my daughter in the future? How can I face the deceased Su Luo?

But why is my body so unruly? Even though I feel a strong resistance, I still can't control it.

Just then, Shen Zhao's hot breath echoed in her ears.

"Auntie, don't overthink it. It's just about meeting each other's needs."
