CHAPTER 239: 239: LET’S DO SOMETHING EMBARRASSING.

"Really?!" Wang Yuan exclaimed in surprise, not bothered by him pinching her, and leaned over for him to feel.

Mu Mingsi quietly satisfied his tactile curiosity and said, "Did the salon release a new product? It feels pretty good. Let’s use this from now on."

He even suggested, "You can use it all over your body."

Having been married for years, Wang Yuan knew exactly what he meant and gave him a shove, "Get lost, you think this stuff is available everywhere? It’s precious, made by Great Aunt herself."

She emphasized the last few words.

Mu Mingsi felt troubled. If it were something money could buy, that would be easy. But if it’s from Great Aunt, money isn’t the issue.

"Can’t you ask for a few more bottles?"

"Do you still want your pride? Just for a bit of enjoyment, you expect your wife to ask Great Aunt for this? Have some shame."

"What do you mean, just a bit of enjoyment? This concerns our quality of happiness and affects our marital relations," Mu Mingsi said earnestly.

"Ha! If you have the guts, go ahead and ask Great Aunt yourself?"

Despite what she said, Wang Yuan was tempted. This beauty cream from Great Aunt was so effective that after just a few days of use, her old friends were full of praise. Even Mu Mingsi, who prides himself as "Liu Xiaohui," couldn’t resist suggesting she apply it all over. It must be really good!

"Fine, I’ll have your son or daughter ask her, but now’s not the time to discuss this, honey. We haven’t done that for days; let’s do something a bit intimate!"

As he said this, Mu Mingsi hugged Wang Yuan, aiming to kiss her neck.

Wang Yuan loves taking care of herself; aside from her face, her neck is also a priority in her skincare.

So, she also applied the beauty cream here, and Mu Mingsi naturally didn’t want to miss it.

"Have some decency, will you? Can such a thing be asked by your son or daughter?" Wang Yuan didn’t reject her husband’s enthusiasm but was displeased by the idea of involving their children.

"Okay, okay, I’ll ask myself, alright?"

"If you don’t ask, you’re not allowed on my bed next time."

"Honey, we’re in the moment, can’t we skip the demeaning talk?"

Afterwards, Mu Mingsi felt elated; it had been a long time since they had such passion.

Alright, they’ve been together a long time, like a right hand knowing the left, and even the strongest feelings fade. But he was principled; no matter how faded, he wouldn’t stray.

He held his wife’s shoulder, his fingers lingering on her face and neck: "Honey, Great Aunt’s beauty cream is truly amazing, it’s smooth and tender, like tofu – makes me just want to keep touching..."

"Are you saying my skin was like old tofu before and you didn’t even want to touch it?" Wang Yuan gave him a scornful look, "Didn’t you claim you weren’t lecherous and likened yourself to Liu Xiaohui?"

"It’s easy to go from simple to luxurious, hard to reverse. Having it is better than nothing. Without it, you’re my wife and I’m old too, how could I dislike you? With it, you’re still my wife, and if it can be better, I’d certainly enjoy that too. Honey, wouldn’t you say?"

"Yes, yes, everything you say is right. In the end, all men are lustful. Without conditions, they settle, but with them, they can’t settle anymore."

"When did I ever settle for you? You’re my best choice, honey, let’s go again!"

...

Now knowing that Mu Qiuniang is in the Capital City, the next morning, Wang Yuan went to visit.

If her daughter hadn’t been taken to film by Lu Mingchen, she would’ve wanted her daughter to help smooth things over.

"Great Aunt, it’s only been a few days, but you look more vibrant and beautiful!" She began with compliments as soon as they met.

"When good things happen, one’s spirit is lifted. You’re the one glowing with youth, have you encountered something pleasant?" Jiang Nuo was a bit surprised. It hadn’t been long, but why did he feel that Xiao Bai’s mom looked younger?

"Really, Great Aunt and Uncle? Have I really gotten younger?" Wang Yuan was delighted.

Though she had already noticed, being praised by a young handsome guy like Jiang Nuo made her very happy.

"Not only younger, but several years younger." Jiang Nuo said earnestly.

"That’s all thanks to Great Aunt. She previously gave me some beauty cream; it’s incredibly effective. I’ve only used it a few days, yet the improvement is so obvious. Yesterday, when I went out, my good friends were all amazed and asked if I was using something new, begging to know my secret..."

Jiang Nuo only knew that Mu Qiuniang gave some beauty cream but didn’t expect it to be so effective. But then again, his wife is like a fairy; anything she creates wouldn’t be ordinary.

"Then they must be terribly jealous!" Jiang Nuo laughed.

"Exactly, that’s why as soon as I knew Great Aunt returned, I hurried over to inquire whether the beauty cream was hard to get. I thought of asking for a few more for social purposes. If it’s difficult, then forget it."

Wang Yuan was considerate, knowing who’s close and who’s distant.

If Great Aunt was willing to make more, that’d be great; if not, she couldn’t insist.

"It’s not difficult, but..." Mu Qiuniang began.

"But what? Great Aunt, please say whatever you need. I’m not unreasonable, and won’t put you in a difficult position. If it’s not possible, that’s fine too."

Even after just a few days of use, the effects were so noticeable. Wang Yuan wasn’t dumb; no matter how easy it was to make, mass production wasn’t feasible. Great Aunt is, after all, one person, with limited energy. If she kept some for herself, how much would really be left?

"I’ll give you the formula, and you can have it made yourself. Although it won’t be as good as when I make it, it’ll be better than most others."

In truth, Mu Qiuniang found it bothersome. She doesn’t need such things herself; the last time was just a favor, but to keep doing it would truly be a chore for her.

Wang Yuan looked stunned and quickly stood up: "This isn’t appropriate, Great Aunt. I truly wasn’t asking for the formula. I just wanted to ask if it was convenient to make me some more for social purposes. If not, it’s really unnecessary to give me the formula..."

"You don’t have to worry. My wife said she’d give it to you, so she will. She doesn’t overthink things, and you don’t need to either," Jiang Nuo, understanding Mu Qiuniang best, assured, "Anyway, my wife is an elder of the Mu family, and giving things to juniors is normal, no need for such reluctance."

"This..." Fine, she forgot about Mu Qiuniang’s seniority. Though her rank is high, she looks terribly young, so she took "Great Aunt" as just a title, considering Mu Qiuniang as a junior in skill.

However, now this junior reminded her, "a gift from an elder should not be declined," so...
