Chapter 33

Xu Bin asked in a skeptical tone, “Mom, really?”

Shen Ruyu still hugged Xu Bin, and with her impatient nature, she immediately said, “Nonsense, Mom isn’t stupid or brainless.”

“It’s Zhang Xinda’s parents’ business that he’s rich. He’s just idle and relies on his parents to support him. He’s sponged off his parents and he doesn’t spend any of the money he’s made on me or your older sister.”

“My own son-in-law is the best. He loves his wife and is considerate. He works hard to earn money for his wife and doesn’t forget to be filial to his mother. He also helps take care of his younger sister’s affairs. He is more reliable than my two daughters!”

“Son-in-law, I was foolish and stupid before, and I made you suffer.”

Shen Ruyu became more and more agitated as she spoke, her teeth clenched and her voice trembling slightly: “So what if Zhang Xinda is a billionaire? He doesn’t spend a single penny on you. Only my second son-in-law is truly filial to his mother.”

“Mom won’t make the same mistake again. Don’t blame Mom for being mean to you before. Mom will make it up to you in the future.”

It’s unbelievable that my mother-in-law has such high awareness. It seems that it was only after I spent real money that she suddenly realized that Zhang Xinda had been making empty promises.

Money truly is the greatest sincerity; it even made her IQ skyrocket. Oh, all-powerful and all-evil money!

As soon as a wicked thought crossed Xu Bin’s mind, he looked at his mother-in-law, who was both emotional and touched, and was thinking about whether to strike while the iron was hot and make some kind of erotic compensation, her phone rang again.

At this moment, the two, who were genuinely expressing their feelings, had no idea that a sneaky figure was hiding at the bottom of the stairs. The figure stared wide-eyed at the scene of the two embracing, full of surprise and even fear.

His own mother and his brother-in-law, who was only wearing underwear, were hugging each other, talking about something but seemed very intimate.

Yao Le’er felt like her mind was going to explode, and her rapid breathing was beyond her comprehension.

The two separated the moment the phone rang. Yao Le’er felt her legs go weak, but she still quickly climbed back upstairs.

She didn’t mean to peek; it’s just that her mother-in-law used to scold everyone for being so noisy, making as much noise going up and down the stairs as if monkeys were playing in the mountains.

When Shen Ruyu was home, everyone tiptoed up and down the stairs, which showed how tyrannical the tigress was. Yao Le’er also habitually tiptoed downstairs, but she never expected to see such an explosive scene.

“Why are you being such a gossip? We’re one short for mahjong?”

“My younger sister has been home these past few days. As I told you, she’s still busy with school enrollment.”

“What are you saying, you bitch? Who’s short of money and already getting cocky after winning just a little from me?”

“Wait ten minutes, let me see if anything’s wrong. If not, I’ll rip your underwear off today too.”

The relationship between my mother-in-law and this best friend is strange. They are both sarcastic and mean-spirited, yet they can get together every day without falling out. It’s just that birds of a feather flock together, and there’s some kind of chemical reaction that’s hard to understand.

Women are strange creatures. Shen Ruyu hung up the phone, thought about it seriously for a moment, and then shook her head and said, “Forget it, I won’t go. The money you give is to supplement the family’s living expenses. How can Mom take it to gamble?”

Seeing her putting on an act, her eyes darting around nervously when she lies, anyone who believes her is a fool. My mother-in-law, Shen Ruyu, is not such an upright person to begin with.

“You’re just being silly by taking their politeness seriously,” Xu Bin chuckled without saying much. He picked up her bag and led her to the wardrobe, asking, “Mom, which outfit do you want to wear?”

“I…I can choose it myself…”

Shen Ruyu panicked for a moment.

Her wardrobe was a little messy, with her underwear placed in a conspicuous drawer, which was currently open.

Before she could stop him, Xu Bin grabbed a sleeveless floral dress that she usually liked to wear, and then quickly pulled out a set of red underwear and a bra and stuffed them into her arms.

Shen Ruyu, clutching her clothes, blushed. She hadn’t expected her son-in-law to suddenly go through her underwear.

What’s even more outrageous is that Xu Bin picked up the bra and looked at the size on it. Looking at the ridiculously large cup size, he grinned and said, “34G, Mom, you bought a bra that’s too small. If it’s too tight, you won’t be able to breathe properly. I’ll go with you to buy a new one in a couple of days.”

These words were purely flirting. Seeing that Shen Ruyu was about to get angry, Xu Bin immediately said, “Mom, trust me, wear this today and I guarantee you’ll dominate the scene and leave those gossipy old women utterly defeated.”

“What nonsense are you spouting? Get out, Mom needs to change her clothes.”

Shen Ruyu blushed with embarrassment and glared at him fiercely.

Seeing that things had gone far enough, Xu Bin didn’t push his luck any further. While teasing his mother-in-law, Xu Bin had also become completely aroused, with a huge tent-like shape bulging in the middle of his pants.

Shen Ruyu was clearly on guard, while Xu Bin, seeing that things were going well, went to the living room to smoke.

“Ding… The favorability rating of my mature and voluptuous mother-in-law is fluctuating…”

Xu Bin was startled and sat up straight. He frowned, thinking, “If it can go up, can it also go down? Is this thing based on floating calculations?”

If that’s the case, the difficulty will increase significantly. This is strange happening even before the questline has been officially released. Damn it, the difficulty will double after the questline is launched.

Xu Bin looked a little uncomfortable, and he covered his forehead and let out a long sigh.

Shen Ruyu happened to hear this sound. She was already feeling uneasy, and opening the door felt like being a thief. She thought that if her son-in-law was upstairs, she would sneak out to avoid embarrassment.

As soon as she entered the living room, she saw her son-in-law’s expression shift between light and dark. Suddenly, he let out a long sigh, and his helpless and pained look startled her and made her heart skip a beat.

Shen Ruyu took a deep breath, walked over, and asked gently, “Son-in-law, why are you sighing?”

“Mom, you look so beautiful. I told you I have a good eye for clothes.”

Xu Bin was thinking about something and said absentmindedly, “It’s nothing, Mom, don’t worry, go ahead and win more.”

Xu Bin’s expression was slightly helpless when he said this, a helplessness that came from looking at his beautiful mother-in-law but not knowing where to start. At this moment, a man doesn’t need to act; this frustration comes from the bottom of his heart.

“Son-in-law, don’t keep things to yourself. If you can’t tell Nannan, tell Mom.”

Shen Ruyu became increasingly worried and sat down beside Xu Bin, taking his hand and saying, “You just said that we are family.”

Seeing his usually sharp-tongued mother-in-law so gentle now, Xu Bin was flattered. He immediately took her hand and stroked it, saying softly, “Mom, don’t worry, work is just sometimes stressful.”

The touch was a bit too forward, but Shen Ruyu didn’t mind this time. She just said with concern, “It’s good that the pressure is relieved. If you don’t say anything, Mom won’t ask anymore, so you won’t think Mom is old and nagging.”

“Mom isn’t old at all. She has the delicate skin of a young girl. When we go out, people will definitely praise us as a perfect couple.”

“You’ve learned to speak badly too, and you’re even taking advantage of Mom.”

As Shen Ruyu spoke, she subconsciously glanced at the time. Xu Bin noticed this detail and considerately said, “Mom, go ahead. Don’t worry, I’ll handle my little sister’s matter.”

“Thanks a lot!”

Shen Ruyu blushed and withdrew her hand. As soon as she stood up, she hesitated slightly and said, “Son-in-law, will Nannan know about the 20,000 yuan you gave me?”

During this period, everyone in the family has changed, especially Yao Nan, who has changed the most. Before, she was a quiet and submissive person who would never talk back when scolded, and her personality could be described as too honest.

But now that her husband has become successful, Yao Nan has held her head high and is much more cheerful and confident. Now Shen Ruyu is even a little embarrassed to lecture her.

Xu Bin hugged her again, feeling the alluring softness of his mother-in-law’s mature body and the hormonal fragrance emanating from her, his penis became hard and a little painful again.

This time, Shen Ruyu sensed it, and her face flushed slightly as she was about to push him away reproachfully.

Xu Bin immediately said emotionally, “Mom, I am now the only man in the family, and it is my responsibility to take care of you.”

“I know about all the troubles Dad has gone through. It hasn’t been easy for you to raise Nan Nan and the other two all these years. Now that I’m the head of the household, of course I should share the burden with Mom.”

“Mom, I will take good care of you in Dad’s place, don’t worry.”

These words were touching, but there was always a sense of ambiguity in them. Shen Ruyu’s eyes welled up with tears, and her face flushed as she noticed something was amiss.
