"Wow... This is so luxurious!"
Zhu Kai stared in awe at the furnishings in the apartment.
"Of course! Rui Rui is extremely wealthy. This is just one of her residences. She's let me take care of it for now."
Shen Shiyu twirled the key on her index finger proudly, acting as if the apartment were entirely hers.
As she spoke, Zhu Kai watched her intently. He wasn't at all interested in the opulent surroundings.
"Baby, can I go wash up?"
"... You're so impatient!"
She bit her lower lip shyly and walked up to him, tracing circles on his chest.
"I've missed you so much these days."
As he said this, he pulled her into his arms. The fragrance of Shen Shiyu's hair drove him crazy. Her skin was so smooth and delicate under his big palm that he couldn't help but long to kiss those light - pink buds.
"Ah..."
She deliberately let out a charming moan. This snapped the last thread of his self - control.
Zhu Kai forcefully wrapped his arms around her waist and pressed his lips against hers.
"No, no! I... I have something to tell you."
Shen Shiyu pushed him away playfully, her face flushed.
"Can't it wait until we're done?"
He gasped for breath. His physical reaction made it impossible for him to wait.
"I have a boyfriend!"
The hand Zhu Kai was about to use to pull her back froze in mid - air.
Actually, when he saved Shen Shiyu from the luxury yacht, he'd suspected that a woman as beautiful and attractive as her couldn't have come alone. But he still felt hurt when she said it so bluntly.
"So? Do you not want to be with me? Or are you just using me as a casual fling?"
Most of Zhu Kai's passion faded away. He looked dejected, his eyes filled with disappointment.
"Aren't you curious about who he is?"
Shen Shiyu didn't look happy. Instead, she seemed a bit sad.
"What's the point of knowing? Will it make you change your mind?"
He hung his head, picked up his coat from the floor, slung it over his shoulder, and walked around her dejectedly, planning to leave.
"Bo Siming! My boyfriend is Bo Siming!"
She turned around and hugged his waist, pressing her cheek against his back.
"I've been with him for a long time, but he's been using me all along. He's never loved me! A Kai... I know this is cruel to you, but my feelings won't go away overnight. Can you give me some time?"
He turned around and gently held her tear - streaked face in his big hands.
"As long as you say you have feelings for me, I'll wait."
"You're the one I think about day and night. I haven't been able to forget you since the day we met. A Kai... I like you."
Zhu Kai picked her up in his arms and gently laid her on the sofa.
"Baby, I'm really happy to hear you say that. I'll wait for you until you truly let go."
Shen Shiyu spread her legs willingly, looking eager.
"Hurry... I want it."
It had been a month since she last slept with Bo Siming. And now that he was half - paralyzed, he couldn't satisfy her desires at all. She was on the verge of going crazy.
Just as they were passionately making love, the camera hidden in the vase glowed red slightly, recording everything.
The next day, Zhu Kai received an urgent notice from his unit and left first.
Shen Shiyu had just finished taking a shower when she received a call from Yang Wan.
"Yu'er, are you still in the hospital? Mom misses you so much."
"Just tell me what jewelry you've set your eyes on this time."
"Wow~ You're really my daughter. You guessed it right!"
She held up several dresses and compared them on herself. "Just tell me what you want. I have to attend a company merger ceremony later."
Yang Wan was stunned. "What merger ceremony?"
Shen Shiyu leaned against the wall and turned on the speakerphone. She took off her bathrobe and slowly tried on the dresses. "The Shen Group and the Zhong Petroleum are merging. Didn't Siming tell you?"
"No! Where are you now? I'll come find you!"
"I'm in Rui Rui's apartment."
Yang Wan grinned excitedly. "That's perfect! I'll come right away."
After entering the apartment, she rushed straight into the bedroom.
"Mom! Why are you going into Rui Rui's room again? Come out quickly!"
Shen Shiyu, wearing a jade - green slit dress, shouted unhappily.
"Oh, I just came to change my jewelry. I'm tired of the old ones!" Yang Wan tried on all kinds of jewelry. "This one is nice, and this one is beautiful too! Oh, they're just made for me!"
"Are you listening to me?"
She quickly walked to the door in her long dress, frowning and glaring at her mother.
"What will I say if Rui Rui asks about the mess you've made?"
"Just say there's a mouse in the room. It's not hard to explain. Oh, why is this ring so small!" Yang Wan picked up a pink - purple diamond ring and tried to force it onto her ring finger.
After struggling for a while, the pink - purple diamond on the ring fell off.
"Mom!"
Shen Shiyu's face turned pale. She rushed in and looked at the mess on the table.
"I... I didn't mean to... It's too small. I couldn't get it on. It must be a problem with the workmanship! The quality is so poor that it can't even stand wearing."
Yang Wan got up from the dressing stool in a hurry, muttering and complaining.
"Where are you going? You can't just run away after breaking something!"
Shen Shiyu was so anxious that she turned around to stop her mother. But the hem of her dress was too long. She accidentally stepped on it and fell onto the bed.
Tear -
The sound of the fabric tearing came from her waist.
"Damn it..."
She felt as if half of her world had collapsed. She stood there, stunned and at a loss.
"Quick, take it off! Put on a new one!"
Yang Wan reacted quickly. She pulled Shen Shiyu up from the bed.
"Rui Rui will scold me to death when she finds out! She might even ask me to pay for it... The diamond ring just now, and this dress..."
Her voice was on the verge of tears. "I couldn't afford to pay even if I sold myself!"
"Why do you worry so much? She has so many clothes and jewelry. She won't even notice if one is missing or broken!"
Yang Wan whispered some ideas. "I think we should take these broken things back. She won't know anyway."
"Is that okay? It's stealing!"
Shen Shiyu was so flustered that she didn't know what to do.
"We're just taking them for repair. How can it be stealing? We'll return them after they're fixed. You have the key anyway."
Yang Wan's words seemed reasonable.
She nodded blankly. "Yes, I'm just taking them for repair. I didn't steal!"
After reaching an agreement, the two quickly cleaned up the scene and left.
When they got home, they were still in a state of shock.
"Did you two see a ghost during the day?"
Shen Yuliang looked at them curiously, their faces as pale as ghosts.
