Chapter 14.14 Proactively Delivered to the Door
-
She pulled her arm away and said irritably, "Why didn't you come in when I was taking a shower yesterday? I wasn't in the mood at all during the day. Were you too tired yesterday, or were you not feeling well? We only see each other once a month, and that time at the hotel. No wonder people online say that men's attractiveness drops drastically after 25, and they can only chat. But you're not even 25 yet."
This number wasn't made up; it's a real thing. There are two versions of the story: one is that it's not so good after age 30.
Shen Yueze wasn't provoked by her using this topic. He glanced at her for a few seconds and said in a roguish yet serious tone, "Last night, after that kind of thing happened, I really wanted to fuck you, but you always enjoy it so much that the punishment wasn't really a punishment. I was the one who did the work, and you were the one who enjoyed it."
“…”
She remained silent for a few seconds, looking at his nonchalant expression, unsure of what to say, wondering how he could always say such vulgar things so matter-of-factly.
"Didn't you enjoy it? I see you lose control every time. It's clearly you who can't live without sex."
"I do have physiological needs, but it's not to the point where I can't live without them."
Why didn't you say that before?
He used to say that he couldn't live without sex, and if he couldn't have sex, he'd rather die.
He retorted flippantly, "Can you trust what a man says on the spot?"
"..."
Yes, you really can't trust it.

On Lunar New Year's Eve, Wen Yichuan went back to her father-in-law's house to celebrate the New Year, while her older brother went to another city and did not have a holiday. However, he bought her some gifts in advance. She said she didn't need them, but her older brother was used to buying her things even if he didn't give her lucky money.
She returned to the old house. It was quite lively that day. Several of her relatives' cousins would come. There were a bunch of children in the living room, making a lot of noise. The generations were all mixed up. There was also her cousin's child. The eldest cousin was over thirty years old. He had gotten married and had children early, but his child was only two years old and couldn't say much.
The kids she was asked to play with were all around seven or eight years old, or even ten years old. "Sister-in-law, he beat me so badly, join me, let's be on the same side."
Wen Yining: "I've never played this game before. Ask your brother to play. I'm not very good at it, so I don't want to drag you down."
“It’s alright, sister-in-law. You’re older than us, so you’re definitely smarter than me.”
Her cousin Xuanxuan looked at her with great trust.
Unable to refuse, Wen Yining had no choice but to join in and play a few rounds with them. Looking at the final score, she said, "Sorry, Xuanxuan, I'll have your brother win it back for you later."
"He's sleeping upstairs and doesn't want us to wake him up."
Actually, these kids really wanted to play with him, but he was busy at the company the day before and didn't sleep well. After lunch today, he went to sleep for two hours.
His cousin, Shen Songyue, called out to her, "Come here, sister-in-law. Why don't you talk to your mother-in-law more? Don't underestimate her just because she's not his biological mother. She has a very high status in the Shen family."
“I told you, her second uncle respects her a lot at home and considers her opinion on many things. She’s not the kind of mistress or homewrecker who takes over her position.”
Wen Yining knew this. "I gave her a necklace worth over 200,000 yuan for the holiday this time, but she was very cold. I guess she's just like her father and is very dissatisfied with me."
Shen Yueze's stepmother is named Ming Xiang. She is a woman with a noble and shrewd appearance, exuding the air of a wealthy lady. She is in her forties and takes exceptional care of herself.
His biological mother didn't live in Beicheng and they didn't see her often, so in the Shen family, his mother-in-law was the same person as this woman.
Seeing that the game volume was loud, Shen Songyue whispered to her, "Her relationship with Shen Yueze is just so-so. Being a stepmother, it's inevitable."
"At such an advanced age, she's still thinking about having a third child to solidify her position."
"But it's not surprising. That XX girl also had twin sons through IVF. She had no choice but to have them,"
"Liu XX has many children ahead of her, one of whom is the company's female vice president, the one Dongzi publicly professed his love for online,"
“When he wrote to his eldest son, he addressed him as ‘Young Master’.”
"Everyone says she was exiled to England because she couldn't fight them back home."
She is arguably the most famous wife among China's top billionaires, and she is always a hot topic of conversation.
Wen Yining was somewhat surprised by her mother-in-law's idea. "She can't have children at this age, can she? She's over forty, and there's a high risk of accidents. Besides, Shen Zongjun hasn't had any illegitimate children outside, has he? Or is there something I don't know about?"
Shen Songyue shared half of the ice cream with her, saying, "This flavor is especially delicious."
He shrugged. "Of course there are, but they can't come into the house. My second aunt's brother hasn't retired yet, so we have to give him face. But it's hard to say after he retires. The women outside are younger and more exciting."
Wen Yining frowned and pondered for a while. Shen Yueze didn't often talk to her about these things. She wasn't from a wealthy family, but she had heard a lot of gossip about them and knew about the intrigue and power struggles within.
Although Shen Yueze was born to his father's first wife, his biological mother had a calm and unassuming personality. Shen Yueze's impression of her was that of a gentle woman with no desires or ambitions. Being a third-generation member of a prominent family, she lacked nothing.
Her marriage to Shen Zongjun was a political alliance; there were no conflicts or grudges, and the divorce was peaceful.
After receiving a share of the property, he moved to another city to live, but Shen Zongjun did not treat his ex-wife poorly materially.
His stepmother was more aggressive in comparison.
Shen Songyue continued to kindly advise her, "You still need to maintain a good relationship with her, since it's almost impossible for you to get along with your second uncle anyway."
Wen Yining even did her homework with her, asking her cousin what Shen Zongjun liked and if there were any inexpensive items she could buy.
Because that bastard Shen Yueze doesn't even know his father's preferences, asking him would be pointless. He even said there's no need to try to please his family, especially his stepmother.
He was indifferent to his stepmother; he wouldn't speak ill of her, but he wouldn't pay her any attention either.
Wen Yining sighed, her gaze falling on Xuanxuan's carefree smile. "I want to too."
"I bought several expensive gifts and spent a long time choosing them, but she didn't even open them and just threw them aside,"
"The second time I came, I saw that the jade bracelet was on the nanny's wrist."
They gave the things she bought directly to the maid; their attitude couldn't be clearer.
This made her feel a little sad and disappointed at the time, as she hadn't expected that they wouldn't even bother with superficial politeness.
"Huh?" Shen Songyue, "There's that too? That makes things a bit tricky."
On second thought, "Fortunately, Shen Yueze doesn't have any emotional ties with them."
Mother-in-law Mingxiang came over wearing an exquisite dress, with a striking imperial green bracelet on her left wrist.
Wen Yining didn't know the price, but she felt it must be at least eight figures. The most expensive one she gave was only a little over 300,000, and it was paid for with Shen Yueze's card.
Shen Yueze knew this too, and even said that his stepmother wouldn't care, but if she wanted to give it to him, she could give it to him, it didn't matter. She didn't believe it at the time, thinking that it was a token of her affection.

Mingxiang asked her, "Ningning, do you know how to play mahjong? Come and play for a while."
She lied: "I'm not very good at it. Let Songyue play with you."
"Oh, it's so simple, you can learn it in no time."
Wen Yining knows how to play, but she doesn't want to play with her in-laws. If they lose, they might be in a bad mood. She's a junior, so it's better to let it go. They already have a lot of prejudice against her.
When we first got married, the reason I tried so hard to please my in-laws was because I was worried it would affect my career.
Shen Yueze's connections were all through family members. Without his status as the heir of the Shen family, why would those high-ranking officials give him any face?
Shen Zongjun is a genuine third-generation member of the elite elite. The godfather, godfather, and uncles he called "god-grandfather" when he was a child were all people who would never appear in Shen Yueze's circle.
Shen Yueze had no way to make connections. In his twenties, most of his peers were second-generation rich kids with no power.
However, she later discovered that his family didn't care at all about how he played around outside or how he used his connections to promote her, a minor celebrity.
So he simply stopped thinking about buying Mingxiang something to please her when they met.
Xuanxuan and the other kids wanted to play a game with her. "Let's play hide-and-seek. This place is so big, and there are two courtyards. It's perfect for hide-and-seek. Sister-in-law, you be the one who's 'it.' We'll hide, and you come find us."
“Let’s start now,” my cousin said excitedly.
Wen Yining: "How about rock-paper-scissors? I don't want to be the one who's 'it.' And I'll add a prize: the person who hides until the end gets this helicopter."
She bought an extra toy when she was buying toys, and miscalculated the number of people. It was quite expensive, costing over a thousand yuan. She had never played with such expensive toys when she was a child, and she complained to her best friend about how expensive toys are now.
Xuanxuan was intrigued by the helicopter and squatted down to examine the packaging box. "Is this fun?"
"The shop owner said it had many functions when I bought it."
“I want this, and I must hide it in a good place so that none of you can find it.”
"Hurry up!" Xuanxuan couldn't wait to play rock-paper-scissors.
Shen Songyue didn't like playing mahjong with her uncle and aunt either, so she came over to the kids and said, "What games are you playing? Can I join in?"
"Let's play hide-and-seek."
"There are plenty of rooms here, and lots of places to hide, so it shouldn't be hard to find."
"That's what makes it fun. It wouldn't be fun if you could find it right away. When I was little, I played this with my brother at home. There weren't enough rooms, so it only took a few minutes."
The loser is the one who has to catch the other. My older cousin lost in the end and started the countdown with her eyes covered.
Xuanxuan: "You counted too fast. You can't count that fast. Let's start over."
They didn't hide together; they scattered and ran away.
There were courtyards at both the front and back gates, but it was too cold outside in the north, so Wen Yining ignored the courtyards and went straight upstairs.
There were several bedrooms upstairs, and she went straight to Shen Yueze's room, feeling that it would be difficult to catch him. She remembered that the children knew that her cousin was sleeping, so they usually wouldn't disturb him.
Shen Songyue couldn't help but laugh: "Why don't you just hide in Shen Yueze's bed? I don't think anyone will find you."
After closing the door,
The bedroom was pitch black, and the slippers made no sound as they stepped on the soft carpet, which cost tens of thousands of yuan per square meter, perfectly blocking out outside noise.
It had a faint, pleasant scent of him, along with the aroma of perfume.
It smells familiar and comforting.
Shen Yueze was awakened by the noise of the door opening and closing. He turned over and said in a lazy, slightly hoarse voice, "Tsk, go out and play. I'll play with you guys tonight."
They mistook her for Xuanxuan and the others.
Wen Yining slipped into the double bed from the other side, lying down slowly and gently.
However, he still noticed it and tried to kick his disobedient cousin away, saying, "If you disturb your brother's sleep again, I won't give you any New Year's money tomorrow."
Wen Yining chuckled to herself, covering her entire body with the blanket to avoid his touch.
Shen Yueze groped around inside the blanket with his hands, and soon found her spot, using a bit of force in a malicious way.
"ah…"
Such a sensitive spot made her gasp involuntarily and back away. He had taken full advantage of her, and she couldn't help but wonder, "You weren't faking it, were you? Did you already recognize me?"
He gripped her wrist. "Is this some kind of New Year's surprise? Offering yourself to me?"
