Day n of not wanting to be a kept man's canary

One minute?

Nude photos?

Before Mu Yanxin could think, she knocked over a glass of milk in her panic.

"Excuse me, I'm going to change my clothes." Mu Yanxin left the banquet hall, trying her best not to lose her composure.

Mu Yanxin didn't know how she got to Nanyuan, nor how long it took.

The moment she pushed open the door, Mu Yanxin's legs went weak and she almost collapsed to the ground, her gleaming leather shoes coming into view.

Raising his gaze, the man crossed his legs, a cigarette dangling from his lips, and smirked, "Little sister-in-law, so eager to pounce on me?"

His tone was filled with schadenfreude, "But you're late."

Mu Yanxin bent over, panting heavily, and after catching her breath, she said, "I ran here."

It takes about fifteen minutes to get from the banquet hall to Nanyuan, which is her fastest speed. This question itself is a false proposition; it's clearly a trap to mess with her.

"So, being late means you have to accept the punishment!" Leng Tingye's slender fingers swiped across the phone screen, his smile utterly wicked.

Sending nude photos?

My scalp tingled; I didn't dare imagine the consequences of the photo appearing in the family group chat. Forcibly taking it was definitely not an option.

After a mental struggle, she brazenly walked over and sat on Leng Tingye's long lap, softening her voice, "Good Master Ye, please, for the sake of me running until I was out of breath, can you punish me in a different way?"

After saying that, she blinked her eyes and looked at him in a pleading manner, pouting, "Please!"

It looks just like a lapdog wagging its tail to please its owner.

Leng Tingye wiped the sweat from her forehead. "How about another way?"

"Yes, let's try a different approach!" Mu Yanxin nodded vigorously.

Leng Tingye chuckled. "Are you sure?"

"Sure!"

She would accept any punishment as long as the nude photos weren't released.

"Fine!" Leng Tingye answered casually, his hand tracing her cheek down to her neck before suddenly grabbing her. "Then will you beg me?"

The man was very strong, and Mu Yanxin slid off his legs, her face turning deathly pale.

"Tell me, Master Ye, please punish me in a different way!"

"Please, please, Master Ye, punish me in a different way!" She used all her strength to utter those few words.

Just as she felt she was about to suffocate, the man finally released her, saying, "This is your choice, don't regret it!"

The dim light couldn't hide the absurdity in the man's eyes. The air grew increasingly suffocating, and it was too late for regrets.

"Why are you crying?" Leng Tingye spat out his cigarette butt, his dark eyes filled with unfathomable desire, his tone impatient. "If someone sees this, they'll think I forced you."

"Didn't you beg me to punish you?"

"Your sister-in-law is very virtuous!"

"Did you give your second brother the same pleasure?"

"What do you think people will think if they knew how virtuous and domestic you are?"

She shook her head, tears streaming down her rosy cheeks as she choked on them.

She was forced to look up, and because of her tears, her misty eyes were red and pitiful, making one want to bully her to death.

"Has your second brother ever treated you like this?"

The man's words became increasingly indistinct, and his face became increasingly blurry.

The man didn't touch her, but he tormented her more fiercely than ever before.

She regretted it, regretted impulsively provoking this man that night. After these few encounters, she thought he might have a shred of humanity.

She was wrong; he was just a volatile, madman.

She scrambled to her feet, looking utterly pathetic. The man, throughout, maintained his haughty demeanor, showing not a shred of pity in his eyes.

My throat hurts so badly that I can't utter a single sound.

She looked around, trying to find a pen. The room was unoccupied, and the furniture was covered in dust. Her gaze finally fell on the wooden floor, and she knelt down to write on it:

"Master Ye, are you satisfied now?"

She wiped her mouth and continued writing, "If I'm not satisfied, I can continue."

The woman was like a walking corpse, her eyes dull and lifeless.

The woman's lifeless state dispelled the man's last bit of pleasure; his face darkened, and he remained silent.

"If Master Ye is satisfied, that will be the last time."

After so many encounters, this was the first time Mu Yanxin had expressed her true feelings in this way.

In reality, she had no confidence at all; it was a psychological game, and she was going to take a gamble.

If she cut ties completely with Leng Tingye, he wouldn't keep asking about Song Renshou. She knew she couldn't hide it from him for long.

If Leng Tingye wants to know, he can find out in a minute.

She clung to a sliver of hope that if Leng Tingye continued to threaten her with the nude photos, she would continue to appease him, which would mean admitting defeat and compromising.

A cell phone ring broke the deadlock; it was Leng Changqing calling, probably because she hadn't come back to confront her in a long time.

Leng Tingye's face was filled with disgust as he shouted, "Get out!"

The journey from Nanyuan could almost be described as an escape. She was afraid that Leng Tingye would change his mind and drag her back, as this wasn't the first time he had broken his promise.

She came out even faster than she left.

Leaving Nanyuan, I could finally release the anger I had been holding in all night.

Looking up, dark clouds obscured the stars and the moon, creating a gloomy atmosphere.

She was relieved to be rid of a big problem.

Mu Yanxin didn't notice the man standing in the shadows; she went into the South Garden after she came out.

Instead of returning to Xiyuan first, she went to the garage. Learning from her previous experiences, Mu Yanxin was more cautious and always kept a change of clothes in the trunk for emergencies.

After changing her clothes and touching up her makeup so that no one would notice anything amiss, she returned to Xiyuan.

As expected, a scolding was inevitable.

As soon as she entered the door, Feng Yaqin slapped her across the face.

"You took so long to change your clothes, leaving the table while the elders were still there. You didn't even show up after the family banquet ended. You've disgraced the entire second branch of the family!"

"I know, you're afraid of having to clean up after the family dinner, so you've gone somewhere to slack off, right?"

Mu Yanxin shook her head.

She remained silent, which only fueled Feng Yaqin's anger. "Are you mute? Why aren't you saying anything?!"

"You know you're wrong but won't admit it, huh!"

Leng Changqing couldn't stand it anymore and dragged her upstairs.

After returning home, he became angrier and angrier the more he thought about it.

He went into the bedroom and closed the door, probably because he didn't want anyone to know that he had been cheated on, not even his own mother.

He pointed at her nose and asked, "You bitch, you sneaked out to have fun while I was away, didn't you?"

"I didn't expect you to be so provocative. Tell me, have you slept with any men?"

Mu Yanxin was too lazy to explain. After asking Leng Changqing for a long time without getting any answers, he said, "If I find out that you're having affairs with other men, we'll get a divorce!"

After saying that, he slammed the door and went to another room.

Mu Yanxin breathed a sigh of relief. No man would be entangled with her anymore; what needed to be cut off had already been cut off.

When she left, Leng Tingye's face was full of disgust, and he didn't even lift his eyelids. It seemed that there would never be any connection between them in this lifetime!
