Chapter 475 - 184 Mother-in-Law "Eavesdropping", "Sour Grape" Zhong Tingyue
After tidying up the living room and kitchen, Gu Lanxin tiptoed into the living room. Seeing no sign of Li Yuan and her daughter, a peculiar smile appeared on her lips. The young couple had a few drinks and retreated to the bedroom for some privacy. Alone together, as long as Li Yuan wasn’t a complete blockhead and made a move, their relationship would surely be mended. As for Li Yuan’s character? How could a playboy who juggled several girlfriends at once possibly be a blockhead?
Gu Lanxin picked up the remote, preparing to watch some television. Suddenly, faint sounds began to emanate from the adjacent bedroom. She only had to listen closely to recognize whose voice it was. As someone with worldly experience, Gu Lanxin immediately understood that Li Yuan and Zhong Tingyue were engaged in some kind of vigorous exercise in the bedroom.
A blush crept across Gu Lanxin’s still-charming face. She tutted and muttered to herself, "Those two kids are in such a hurry. Couldn’t they have waited until I went to sleep?"
She glanced at the clock. It was just 8:10 PM, only half an hour after they had finished dinner.
Discounting time for foreplay, does that mean they made up only a few minutes after going into the bedroom right after dinner? Li Yuan really has a way with women. He’s got Little Moon wrapped around his finger again.
Though she muttered this aloud, she was inwardly relieved.
Since the two of them are already engaged in such intimate activities, it means the rift between my precious daughter and Li Yuan has been repaired, and they have reconciled. Little Moon, don’t blame your mother for having unhealthy thoughts, skewed morals, and a touch of materialism. If your feelings for Li Yuan weren’t so deep, and if he wasn’t so exceptional, then that would be one thing. Mom would have steadfastly supported you, even encouraged you to break up with him and find your true love. But you’re already deeply in love with him, and your relationship has progressed to *that* stage. Li Yuan is also extraordinarily outstanding. And most importantly, he treats you so well. It would be a terrible shame to give up on this; you would regret it for the rest of your life. In this day and age, it’s better for you to be with Li Yuan than to marry some ordinary man you don’t love, only to regret it all alone later. At the very least, you truly love him in your heart. Even if you don’t end up with the result you want, even if his love is shared with other women, at least you will have loved deeply. You won’t have regrets in the future, just like your mother... This is what it means to be young—always full of emotion and impulse. Before you reach an age where you must be rational, Mom doesn’t want you to abandon your feelings for the sake of reason.
Gu Lanxin sighed softly to herself as her thoughts trailed off.
As a mother, even if I am just a mistress, how could I not wish for my precious daughter to find a man who only has eyes for her? A man who wouldn’t lead her down the same path I walked? But as someone with experience, I understand all too well that truly exceptional men often have many women around them. They shine as brightly as the sun, attracting countless beautiful girls who flock to them. And Li Yuan is just such an exceptional man. Based on the information from my daughter and what I’ve found online over the past few days, I’m certain that Li Yuan’s net worth has already reached tens of millions, perhaps even a hundred million, making him a bona fide multimillionaire. The future of this talented, eighteen-year-old multimillionaire is simply impossible to predict. My daughter is utterly convinced of Li Yuan’s talent and vision, believing he is destined for success. If my daughter can seize this opportunity... well, considering Li Yuan’s generosity in gifting her a sports car worth nearly two million, it wouldn’t be surprising if he gifted her an apartment in the future. Take our current apartment, for instance. Although it’s only 160 square meters, being in Modu makes it quite impressive. My daughter could settle down permanently in Modu and enter high society. If she could have a child or two with him down the line, she would be set for life. She might even have a real chance of becoming his officially wedded wife.
Gu Lanxin was lost in these wild thoughts as the sounds from the two in the next room grew increasingly difficult to suppress. This residential building had terrible soundproofing; no special sound-dampening materials had been used.
Gu Lanxin’s face flushed and her eyes grew hazy. A strange heat began to stir in her body, and she couldn’t stop herself from crossing her legs and rubbing them softly against each other. She had just turned forty this year, an age considered the peak of a woman’s libido. The saying "thirty like a wolf, forty like a tiger" was no mere joke; it was an accurate depiction of reality. As a mistress kept by a wealthy man, Gu Lanxin, much like other wealthy wives, didn’t have to perform strenuous labor or endure the elements. In her leisure time, she watched television dramas, listened to music, or met up with friends to play mahjong, work out, do yoga, and indulge in spa treatments to maintain her body. As a result, though she was forty, her face and skin made her look as if she were only in her early thirties. When she went out with Zhong Tingyue, they were often mistaken for sisters rather than mother and daughter.
Listening to the bewitching sounds filtering through the wall, Gu Lanxin grew flustered and agitated. Aided by the considerable amount of red wine she’d drunk, her mind grew hazy, and she began to imagine the dynamic scene unfolding in the bedroom next door.
