Unbridled, Depraved

Chapter 265 Shen Mu is back

Shen family.

The night was as dark as ink, as thick as silk that could not be dissolved, covering the entire villa.

However, the house was brightly lit, and the dazzling light poured into the courtyard through the floor-to-ceiling windows, forming a sharp contrast with the night.

In the bedroom on the second floor, a crystal chandelier hangs high, casting a soft and bright light, which shines on the expensive leather sofa in the center of the living room, refracting a faint luster.

Lin Rou was wearing an elegant silk dress, holding a glass of red wine in her hand, her fingertips gently stroking the rim of the glass, and leaning lazily on the armrest of the sofa.

Her eyes were blurred, with a faint smile on the corner of her lips, and her whole body exuded the charm of a mature woman.

Next to her sat a shirtless young man.

His muscles were well-proportioned and firm, and his skin glowed with health under the light.

His eyes were blazing and with a cynical smile on his face, he was talking in a low voice with Lin Rou.

Their laughter was particularly clear in the quiet room, and the air was filled with the aroma of red wine and an ambiguous atmosphere.

At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door, and then Aunt Liu's voice came through the crack in the door: "Madam, the young lady is back."

Shen Mu is back? !

Lin Rou was startled and the red wine glass in her hand shook slightly and almost slipped.

Her face turned pale in an instant, and a trace of panic flashed in her eyes.

The man next to her was quick to grab her hand and steady the wine glass.

"what happened?"

The man's voice was low and carried the scent of red wine, lingering warmly in her ears.

His breath brushed against her ears gently, with a hint of sultryness.

Lin Rou came back to her senses, looked at the man in front of her, and tugged at the collar of her shirt awkwardly, trying to hide her inner panic.

She stood up quickly, walked quickly to the closet, took out a set of pajamas, and said in a hurried tone: "My daughter is back, you hide in my room for a while, and you are not allowed to come out."

Hearing this, the man chuckled, slowly stood up, walked behind her, put his arms around her waist, buried his head in her neck and shoulders and sniffed gently.

His voice was full of teasing and expectation: "Then you better hurry up, don't make me wait too long."

Lin Rou's body stiffened slightly, but she didn't push him away.

She quickly changed into her pajamas, tidied her messy hair, took a deep breath, and tried to make herself look calm.

Then she quickly walked to the door, pushed it open and walked out, leaving the man standing alone in the room with a meaningful smile on his lips.

......

Living room on the first floor.

Soft light sprinkled in the spacious room. A plate of fresh fruit was placed on the coffee table, exuding a sweet aroma.

Shen Mu sat on the sofa, holding an exquisite silver fork in his hand. He gently picked up a piece of melon and slowly put it into his mouth.

The juice of the honeydew melon burst on the tip of the tongue, so sweet that it almost made one's throat tighten, but there was no expression of enjoyment on her face, instead there was a sense of indifference.

Her eyes were lowered, and her long eyelashes cast a shadow under her eyes, covering up the fleeting haze in her eyes.

At this moment, there was a slight sound of footsteps on the stairs, and then Lin Rou's voice came from behind, with a bit of deliberately modified gentleness: "Mu Mu, why did you come back so suddenly? You didn't even tell Mom in advance."

Shen Mu slowly swallowed the honeydew melon in his mouth, his throat rolling slightly, and then he replied lightly: "Oh, I forgot."

Lin Rou walked over to her and sat down. Her eyes fell on her daughter's face. She smiled slightly, and her tone was gentle but tentative: "Mu Mu, what did you gain from your trip abroad this time? How is the progress with Xiang An? Have you reconciled?"

Shen Mu paused slightly, the silver fork in his hand stopped in mid-air, and his fingertips tightened unconsciously.

"No."

"No?"

Lin Rou raised her eyebrows slightly, "Didn't you say that he still has feelings for you?"

A sarcastic smile appeared on Shen Mu's lips, and he stabbed the melon on the plate with the silver fork in his hand, with such force that it almost crushed the flesh.

"When I went there this time, I found that Yuan Xiao was actually at Ye Xiangan's place! I had a big fight with him, but he actually still protected Yuan Xiao!"

"Yuan Xiao?"

Lin Rou's voice suddenly rose, her brows knitted tightly, and a trace of displeasure and disgust flashed in her eyes, "Why is that little bitch there?"

Shen Mu sneered and slammed the silver fork in her hand heavily on the coffee table, making a crisp thud.

Her eyes were as cold as ice, revealing a bone-chilling chill: "Who knows? Ye Xiangan, that useless man, I think he is a waste, not worth wasting my time at all!"

"It's okay not to."

Lin Rou echoed, with an unfathomable calculation in her eyes: "Now the Xie family is in chaos, Mr. Xie is dead, Xie Jincheng has become a vegetable, Xie Tianyi is in prison, if you get involved with Ye Xiangan again, nothing good will happen."

At this point, she raised the corners of her mouth, remembering something interesting, with a hint of gloating in her tone.

"I heard that Shen Qianhe, that little bitch, fainted on the spot when she saw Xie Jincheng's surgery failed. It's really karma. Looking at the current situation of the Xie family, she will suffer in the future."

Shen Mu didn't say anything, his eyes were fixed on the melon on the plate, his gaze a little dazed.

Seeing this, Lin Rou put down the wine glass in her hand and reached out to gently pat the back of her daughter's hand.

"There will be a celebrity cocktail party next month. Your father has received an invitation. I will ask him to take us with him. We should look for other good young men at the party."

Shen Mu's eyes suddenly lit up, like a lit candle, flickering with anticipation: "Really?"

Lin Rou smiled slightly, "Don't worry, Mom will definitely help you find a man who is a hundred times stronger than Ye Xiangan."

There was a steady sound of footsteps outside the door, and Shen Wenyuan pushed the door open and walked in.

There was a hint of darkness under his eyes, his face looked a bit tired, and his steps were unsteady when he walked. It seemed that he had not rested well.

When Shen Mu heard the noise, he immediately stood up from the sofa, walked quickly to his father's side, and took the coat from his hand naturally.

"Dad, you're back."

Shen Wenyuan nodded, "When did you come back?"

Shen Mu helped his father hang up his coat, turned around and said with a smile: "I just came back not long ago, and was chatting with mom."

Lin Rou was also somewhat surprised to see Shen Wenyuan coming back.

Shen Wenyuan hasn't come back for a long time since the last quarrel.

I don’t know which little goblin’s bed he has slept in these days.

She stood up, walked to Shen Wenyuan, and said sarcastically: "Hey, you still remember to come back?"

Shen Wenyuan didn't reply. He walked to the sofa and sat down. He picked up the ginseng tea brewed by the servant, blew it gently, and took a sip.

As the warm tea went down his throat, his expression visibly relaxed, and the fatigue between his brows also eased a little.

Lin Rou sat beside him, her eyes swept over his face, her tone a little sarcastic: "You have such deep dark circles under your eyes, did you not sleep well last night?"

Shen Wenyuan replied unhappily: "There's a lot going on at the company these past two days."

His tone was a little impatient, and he obviously didn't want to dwell on this topic any further.

Lin Rou rolled her eyes at him, a sneer appeared on her lips, and she immediately changed the subject: "Did you receive the invitation to the celebrity cocktail party next month?"

Shen Wenyuan nodded, put down the teacup, and said calmly: "Got it, what's the matter?"

Lin Rou smiled slightly and said, "Then take me and Mu Mu with you when the time comes? The Xie family has fallen, Ye Xiangan is unreliable, and Mu Mu should get to know more people."
