Under Shen Shi's deliberate enticement, Mu Lengshan, in a daze, fooled around with him for a while longer.
Several red marks were visible on Shen Shiqing's handsome profile. Mu Lengshan, lying in his arms, gently stroked them with her fingers, her beautiful eyes filled with heartache.
"Does it still hurt?" she asked softly.
Several strenuous exercises had put his sensory system in a state of extreme excitement, so he couldn't really feel whether he was in pain or hungry.
But it would be foolish not to take advantage of a good deal. How could he refuse Miss Mu's offer of concern?
Shen Shi tightened his arms around Mu Lengshan, bringing them so close that their breaths could be heard.
Shen Shi lowered his head slightly, bringing his face close to Mu Lengshan's luscious lips, and said, "A kiss from you will make it stop hurting."
"I have this ability too?" Mu Lengshan said upon hearing this.
Although she spoke in a teasing tone, she still planted a sweet kiss on Shen Shi's handsome face.
Exhausted, the two snuggled together and fell asleep, both with bright smiles on their faces, embracing their precious one in this little world.
When Mu Lengshan woke up, it was already 10 p.m.
The person beside her had vanished, and it was completely dark outside. The moment she opened her eyes, the feeling of being abandoned by the whole world washed over Mu Lengshan.
She sat up, rubbed her eyes, touched the blanket next to her, which was still warm, and hurried to the living room.
While Shen Shi was busy in the kitchen, he saw Mu Lengshan walking barefoot on the floor, and his face immediately turned ugly.
Although it is summer now, the air conditioning in the room is set very low, and Mu Lengshan has always been prone to feeling cold.
"Go put your shoes on," Shen Shi said, looking up.
Mu Lengshan, who had just woken up, was still a little dazed and her mind wasn't quite clear. After hearing what Chen Shi said, she immediately went to find her shoes to wear, behaving like a well-behaved child.
By the time Mu Lengshan finished tidying up, Chen Shi had also prepared dinner.
No, wait! It should be called midnight snack at 10 o'clock.
Fearing that eating too much at night would cause indigestion, Shen Shi made very simple dishes, and the portions were prepared for two people.
Since Mu Lengshan returned home, she has been entangled with Shen Shi and has completely forgotten about Lu You.
Right now, when she opens her phone, countless text messages and calls are flooding in, making Mu Lengshan dizzy.
After a quick glance, Mu Lengshan had a general understanding of the situation.
Reality was pretty much as she had imagined; as expected, Lu's father wouldn't go against the Mu family for Lu Ming's sake.
A businessman only cares about profit. Daughters are nothing to him. Sons are more important than daughters, but they can be abandoned in the face of absolute profit.
Capitalists are willing to sell their own coffins for money.
The Mu family is undoubtedly the leading family in S City. The saying "When the Mu family stomps their foot, S City trembles" is not just a joke.
Although the Lu family is a large enterprise, it is no match for the Mu family.
Mr. Lu has always valued his family above all else. He abandoned his first love, whom he had been dating for five years, and entered into a business marriage with Mrs. Lu in order to preserve the glory of his ancestors.
Fortunately, Lu's mother was also a playful person, and only two years after their marriage, he rekindled his romance with his first love.
As his first love grew old, Lu's father found many more young and beautiful substitutes.
The open marriage where the couple doesn't interfere with each other has resulted in Mr. Lu having too many children to count. If one son is not up to par, there's always another one waiting to fill the gap.
The selection of a successor was not a problem at all in Mr. Lu's eyes.
His only worry at this stage is whether his capable daughter, Lu You, will seize his power.
So when Lu You told her father that her younger brother had offended Mu Lengshan, her father abandoned him without hesitation.
“I remember you and the Mu family girl were friends. Lu Ming has caused such a big mess, it seems he's no longer useful. The Lu family will have to rely on you to support it in the future.”
To reassure Lu You, Lu's father once again made empty promises.
Lu You didn't respond, but instead raised an eyebrow at Lu Ming, her voice amplified so that Lu Ming could hear it clearly.
"How could you say that to me! What did I do wrong? In what way am I inferior to my sister?"
Lu's father, who was waiting to practice his Tai Chi, was surprised not to hear his daughter's voice. Instead, he heard Lu Ming's furious questioning on the other end of the phone.
Mr. Lu was unusually silent. How was he supposed to answer that?
Isn't it a well-known fact that Lu Ming is inferior to Lu You? How come my son has no self-awareness at all?
How dare you challenge me? You're not only ignorant of your own limitations, but also unfilial!
Just as Mr. Lu was about to reprimand her, he heard Lu You's sly voice: "I forgot to tell you, he happened to be right next to me."
Just from her tone, Mr. Lu was so angry that his teeth itched.
"Dad, say something! What's wrong with me? Why don't you all like me?" Lu Ming, oblivious to the situation, interrupted forcefully once again.
"With your idiotic emotional intelligence, if it weren't for my son, your legs would have been broken long ago!"
Lu's father was successfully angered by the repeated questioning.
I can't control my capable daughter, but I can't handle my son who relies on me for pocket money?
"You said you were going to break into the entertainment industry, but you made a complete mess of it, slunk back home, and I had to bail you out. I won't hold that against you, but I didn't expect you to offend Mu Lengshan, this big shot, as soon as you joined the company! Tell me! What can you do!"
Without taking a breath, Lu's father gave Lu Ming a thorough dressing-down.
His mouth opened and closed repeatedly, but he didn't make a sound.
In fact, Lu Ming knew in his heart that although his father's words were harsh, they were all true, and he couldn't refute them even if he wanted to.
His conflicted expression, coupled with his father's furious roar, created a scene straight out of a theatrical performance.
Lu You, who was watching the show from the sidelines, tried her best to control herself from laughing out loud.
After everything calmed down, she recounted the whole drama to Mu Lengshan.
Mu Lengshan enjoyed the five-star shrimp-peeling service provided by Chen Shi while listening to Lu You speak, living a very comfortable life.
After hanging up the phone, she hooked Shen Shi's chin with her finger and asked with a smug look, "I've helped you so much, how do you plan to thank me?"
"Of course, I'll repay you with my body."
Shen Shi absolutely loved it; her queen-like demeanor prompted her to answer Mu Lengshan's question without hesitation.
Mu Lengshan glanced at him upon hearing this. You call this repaying? I'm the one who's at a disadvantage, okay?
However, looking at Shen Shi's infuriating face, Mu Lengshan felt that she wasn't really at a disadvantage.
A crisis was easily resolved thanks to Mu Lengshan's intervention.
Because of the beating incident, Shen Shi also gained a lot of sympathy, and his popularity among casual fans improved considerably.
The old saying "a loss may turn out to be a blessing in disguise" perfectly describes this situation.
However, he was able to get through this smoothly thanks to Mu Lengshan. President Mu's words really carry weight!
If Shen Shi were to face the wealthy and powerful Lu family on his own, the outcome would be uncertain.
