CHAPTER 269: CHAPTER 269: OUYANG XUAN (4)_1

"Cheng, what’s been wrong with you lately? Why are you always leaving early and coming back late?" Wanqian wore a sexy, black lace, cut-out slip dress, the straps slipping off her shoulders.

Her snow-white skin was exposed, along with her faintly discernible cleavage. Her long hair cascaded over her shoulders; her entire being exuded a potent sensuality and allure.

Her pitiful appearance, coupled with her sexy and enchanting outfit, could easily stir a man’s desires. Shen Cheng tugged at his tie, observing Wanqian, who clung to him like a water snake; his breathing grew heavy for a moment.

"The company has been very busy lately." Shen Cheng’s hands wrapped around her slender waist, inhaling the faint fragrance on her body. His hands slowly began to roam. It was a surge of impulse he hadn’t felt in a long time.

"Cheng," Wanqian softly murmured, guiding Shen Cheng’s large hands upwards as her legs wrapped tightly around his waist.

The temperature in the room inexplicably rose. Shangguan You watched the fervent scene before her with a cold sneer on her lips. Wanqian used the aphrodisiac, Enchanting Fragrance. Go ahead, be impulsive. The consequences of impulsiveness are severe. You’ve been empty for so long; now, I’ll let you have your fill this once.

Shangguan You sneered as she dispersed another dose of the colorless and tasteless powder into the air, then she vanished from the nauseating room in a flash.

The room’s temperature escalated once again; heavy breathing and intense gasps filled the air. Wanqian’s clothes had somehow fallen off, her body writhing around Shen Cheng like a water snake, their bodies constantly intertwining.

That night, all night long, to prove there was nothing wrong with his body, Shen Cheng went at it again and again. He didn’t stop even when Wanqian begged for mercy. Eventually, Wanqian fainted completely. Only after sating his long-suppressed lust did Shen Cheng coldly head into the bathroom.

Giving the fainted Wanqian in the room a cold glance, Shen Cheng indifferently moved into the study.

「The next day」

Shangguan You, her two companions, and the captivating Gui Mo boarded a plane to B City. Stepping onto the familiar land of B City once again, Shangguan You couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.

No sooner had she exited the plane than she was swooped up in an enthusiastic embrace. Then, a familiar yet somewhat distant voice sounded by her ear, making her feel both close and warm.

"Youyou, you’re finally back! If you didn’t return soon, I would’ve stormed Beijing to bring you back myself, you heartless thing! You left for so long and didn’t even call me! I called you, and you didn’t even pick up," Zhu Li began her barrage while holding her arm.

"Zhu Li, I’m back now, aren’t I? Besides, even if I came back, we wouldn’t be in the same class, would we?" Shangguan You’s mouth twitched, expressing her speechlessness at Zhu Li.

"I don’t care! I just want to be with you! Youyou, you heartless thing! Quick, my dad and mom knew you were coming back and prepared lots of delicious food. Let’s go!" Zhu Li babbled, pulling Shangguan You along.

"Alright, Zhu Li. This is Shangguan Qing, my brother," Shangguan You nodded and introduced Shangguan Qing to Zhu Li with a smile.

"Brother Qing, this is Zhu Li; she’s a classmate of mine here."

"Hello, Zhu Li. Thank you for taking care of our girl." Shangguan Qing gave Zhu Li a polite smile. His sister’s friends were, naturally, his friends too.

"Hello." Zhu Li blushed as she took in Shangguan Qing’s tall figure, his handsome face, and the gentle smile on his lips, speaking somewhat unnaturally. She couldn’t believe that in just a short month, Youyou had not only been accepted by her family but had also gained such a handsome older brother!

"Lovesick," Gui Mo muttered, shooting a disdainful look at Zhu Li’s infatuated expression. He and Shangguan Qing, along with the others, hadn’t walked more than a few steps when a BMW and a Bentley smoothly pulled up in front of them. The car doors opened, and Han Yachu and Lan Xuan stepped out.

"Mr. Qing, Shangguan You," Lan Xuan greeted with a smile, while Han Yachu nodded his usual icy expression as a form of greeting. Seeing the two, Zhu Li’s mouth formed an ’O’. Han Yachu and Lan Xuan actually showed up at the airport together! Were they here to pick up Youyou?

When did Youyou get so close to them? Zhu Li’s eyes were full of questions. She looked from one to the other, watching their continuous pleasantries, and grew even more puzzled.

"Let’s go. We’ll take you back, then Han Yachu and I will host a welcome dinner for you," Lan Xuan nodded to Shangguan Qing.

"Since we’re on your turf, of course, you’re treating," Shangguan Qing replied with a smile. Last time, Han Yachu and Lan Xuan had put in effort to save Youyou. They left afterwards, but now that they’d met again, he naturally wouldn’t disrespect them.

"Thank you both," Shangguan You nodded at them as a greeting. She felt she owed these two a favor, one she would definitely repay if she had the chance.

"Youyou, what about my place?"

"Zhu Li, there are so many of us. You wouldn’t... not welcome us, would you?" Shangguan You asked with a smile.

"Of course, you’re welcome! How could you not be?"

"Well, if that’s the case, then let’s go to my place first, and then we’ll all go to your place, okay? Just don’t blame us for having too many people then," Shangguan You said with a light smile, naturally seeing Zhu Li’s apprehension.

"Okay! As long as you all don’t mind, we’d of course welcome you. Let’s go! We’ll go to your place first, then head to my place for the meal." Zhu Li pulled Shangguan You into Lan Xuan’s car, and the group made their way to Lotus Villa.

Despite their absence, the villa had clearly been well-maintained. Knowing they were coming back, it had been thoroughly prepared and stocked. It looked exactly as it would if it were always occupied.

"Girl, living alone in such a big place? It’s much larger than our home," Shangguan Qing remarked lightly as he surveyed the place where his sister had lived all alone. His heart ached for her. She was all alone, abandoned here. She must have been heartbroken and desolate back then, right?

"I had Aunt Zhang with me, so I lived quite comfortably. And now, I’m not alone anymore because I have all of you, right, Brother Qing?"
