Chapter 25: Mu Chuang Distances Himself from Lin Xi

He lowered his head, sitting on the edge of the bed with his back to Mu Chuang, his heart so tense it felt like it was about to snap. His mind was buzzing. At this point, even if someone lost their temper at him, he probably wouldn’t react.

Mu Chuang was utterly confused by him. Although he had some guesses, he couldn’t be sure.

Lin Xi didn’t speak, and he didn’t press him further.

The room fell into silence.

After a long while, as if he had figured something crucial out, he finally made a decision, “Let’s go with her. I think she’s pretty good.”

He seemed to be talking to himself, yet also intentionally saying it for Lin Xi to hear.

He made this decision partly because he genuinely thought Fu Xiaoling was good, and partly because of what just happened… He wanted to cut off Lin Xi’s unspoken thoughts, hoping he could correct himself sooner rather than later.

When Lin Xi heard him make the decision, his fingers involuntarily clenched tightly, almost breaking.

That night, they didn’t sleep in each other’s arms again.

To be precise, Mu Chuang deliberately distanced himself, no longer holding him to sleep. But thankfully, they hadn’t addressed it directly, and the two were still able to get along harmoniously.

It wasn’t until Liang Ting’s birthday that the relationship between the two underwent an irreversible change.

Liang Ting had specifically booked a hotel that combined accommodation and dining, ordering the most expensive dishes on the menu, quietly scheming her little plan.

That afternoon, she took a leave slip approved by the QC team leader to Mu Chuang for final approval and “casually” invited him to her birthday dinner.

Mu Chuang agreed without hesitation.

Although he was no longer considering this woman, they hadn’t fallen out, nor had they had any obvious conflicts. Out of consideration for their past friendship, it would seem unreasonable not to go.

Therefore, he agreed without hesitation, unaware that he had fallen into the woman’s trap.

Liang Ting happily left with the leave slip. After arriving at the hotel, she sent Mu Chuang the location and then waited for him to arrive that evening.

The reason she came early was because she had a series of pre-dinner tasks to take care of, the most important of which was, of course, reaching an agreement with Zhang Qingyang.

She entered the pre-booked room first, but Zhang Qingyang arrived the next second.

“Coming so quickly, afraid an afternoon wouldn’t be enough?” Liang Ting teased deliberately, looking at the man who had just entered, greeting him with a smile. “Sit down, I’ll pour you a cup of tea.”

As the protagonist of the evening, she was dressed more beautifully than ever, wearing something that seemed specially designed to be easily removed by others.

She wore a fitted silver suspender top, the “straps” so thin they barely seemed to hold up her “mountains,” and a red mink coat on top, making her even fairer and more beautiful.

Platinum earrings were partially hidden under her long hair, shimmering under the light, and beneath her delicate makeup, a red lip was particularly dazzling.

Looking further down, a short, figure-hugging skirt paired with flesh-colored stockings led down to a pair of red high-heeled leather shoes. If it weren’t for the mink coat, she would look almost naked.

Zhang Qingyang couldn’t take his eyes off her. After realizing it, he slammed the door shut with a “bang.”

Even if a man’s wife at home is the best and their relationship is the strongest, few can resist such a seductress.

“Someone like Tingting, an afternoon isn’t enough, I’m afraid a whole day wouldn’t be enough.” He strode over and sat next to Liang Ting, his hands immediately becoming restless. “No need for tea, I just want to eat you now.”

“Saying it so bluntly, aren’t you ashamed?” Liang Ting said, but her body was very honest, leaning into his embrace according to his movements.

Although she didn’t like this man and felt a bit of resistance in her heart, when she thought of the other man, she felt it was worth it.

Fortunately, Zhang Qingyang was presentable. The only drawbacks were that he was married and a bit older, but overall, he looked alright, at least much more pleasing than the one Liu Jingjing had found.

“Ashamed of what? Not being ashamed wouldn’t be manly.” Zhang Qingyang replied, a lustful look appearing on his usually serious face. “Why don’t you just be with me? Leave that man.”

“Dream on,” Liang Ting slapped his hand that had reached into her chest, deliberately changing her expression. “If you don’t let me have him, I won’t let you have me either.”

“Heh heh~” Zhang Qingyang made two snorting sounds, smiling wickedly. “You’re really devoted. You’re disregarding everything for such a man. If I were him, I wouldn’t need you to throw yourself at me, I’d pounce on you myself.”

Liang Ting’s face darkened for a moment, as if he had hit a sore spot. Her words carried some resentment. “I don’t know what he’s thinking. I just don’t understand what’s wrong with me. I’m generous with spending money on him, but in the end, the flat-chested Fu Xiaoling got the upper hand. It makes me so angry.”

“What’s so good about that woman? She’s scheming and stingy, doesn’t spend a dime in front of him, and she’s flat as a board, so uninteresting. I really don’t know what he sees in her.”

In fact, Fu Xiaoling wasn’t as flat as Liang Ting said. Although she looked slender, she still had curves where she should. It’s just that she wasn’t as full as Liang Ting. Describing her as “flat” was a bit of an exaggeration.

Mu Chuang wasn’t blind. If Fu Xiaoling was really as bad as Liang Ting said, he wouldn’t have chosen her.

“He’s blind or his brain hasn’t developed. Anyone even slightly normal wouldn’t give you up and choose that woman.” Zhang Qingyang chimed in, every word calculated. “Someone like Tingting shouldn’t belong to just one man. It’s not a loss to try more than one.”

Hearing this, Liang Ting looked up and met the man’s lecherous eyes.

She smiled faintly, not saying anything, which Zhang Qingyang took as tacit agreement.

Her upper body was being kneaded and swayed, and the instinctive reaction of her body made her a little unable to control herself.

“Why don’t we just stop holding back?” Seeing his opportunity, Zhang Qingyang went a step further, eager to devour this woman in one bite.

“No,” Liang Ting remained sober. “You promised me. If you dare to go back on your word, I’ll look down on you. You’re not the only man.”

Zhang Qingyang stopped his movements, understanding her meaning. “Okay, I won’t go back on what I promised you. But, after the first time is with him, I don’t mind eating the leftovers, as long as the precautions are taken well, he won’t find out.”

Liang Ting thought for a while, but still didn’t say anything.

“What do you say?” Zhang Qingyang leaned closer to her face. Before she could answer, he bit her lips…

“Be careful, don’t mess up my makeup.” Liang Ting squeezed out a sentence from between her teeth, and then proceeded to implement (her) their deal as agreed.

It wasn’t until the evening, before all the guests arrived, that the two ended their intimacy.
