“Ahh~” With a soft sigh, the woman slowly sat up, letting the blanket in her hands fall away to reveal an exquisitely beautiful face. Who else could it be but Yin Yue’s mother, Zheng Yao?
She tried her best to appear calm, but a hint of shyness and helplessness lingered between her brows.
Zhao Ran abruptly stood up, then realizing he was completely naked, hurriedly wrapped a towel around himself. He stood there for a long moment without saying a word.
Then, he slowly walked to the drawer by the cabinet, took out a pack of cigarettes, lit one for himself, and sat on the edge of the bed. He took a deep drag and remained silent for a long time.
Zhao Ran felt utterly helpless. Although Zheng Yao was very beautiful, and he usually only indulged in looking at her, he deeply respected this future mother-in-law who appeared cold and aloof on the outside but was gentle on the inside.
If he had known earlier that it was her in the bed, he would never have dared to touch her, even if beaten to death.
Although the sensation just now was an unprecedented pleasure, after the ecstasy, he truly didn’t know how to face her.
Finally, Zheng Yao spoke first: “This matter… it’s not entirely your fault.” Her voice was very calm, but upon closer listening, one could detect a slight tremble.
Zhao Ran stubbed out his cigarette and said in a low voice, “I’m sorry.” He deeply bowed his head.
Zheng Yao looked at him, like a child who had done something wrong.
Remembering how Zhao Ran usually treated her with great respect, accompanying her on daily runs, Zheng Yao’s heart suddenly softened. Her tone became even gentler as she said, “Alright, I’ve said it’s not entirely your fault. A combination of coincidences led to this happening. And I… I didn’t stop you in time.”
Speaking of this, she also felt somewhat annoyed. Then, trying her best to maintain a steady tone, she said, “Actually, it’s been a long time since I’ve done this.” After saying this, she paused. Despite her efforts to control it, discussing such matters with her son-in-law still felt somewhat unnatural.
Nevertheless, Zheng Yao slowly began to share her unspeakable difficulties.
“That period was very busy with work, and I didn’t have much energy. Plus, I’ve never been the type to take the initiative in asking for it. Slowly, as we grew older, Yue Yue’s father and I simply stopped doing it. About seven or eight years ago, I noticed something strange for a while. After all, I’d handled cases at the grassroots level for several years, so with a little investigation, I found out he was having an intimate relationship with a female student… Go pour me a glass of water. I drank too much alcohol, and my throat is a bit dry.” Zheng Yao suddenly instructed.
Zhao Ran was just listening to the gossip about his father-in-law’s affair when Zheng Yao unexpectedly asked him to pour water. He hurriedly got up to fetch a glass, but in his haste, the towel around him fell to the floor. Zhao Ran quickly picked it up, covering his lower body with one hand while holding the glass with the other, and hurried out of the bedroom.
Zheng Yao watched his flustered appearance, couldn’t help but shake her head with a light laugh. Aside from her husband, she had never been alone with a man in such a situation.
She gently tightened her legs beneath the blanket; it still felt somewhat numb down there.
After all, it had been so many years since she’d had sex. Suddenly being entered so roughly by a young man was still a bit unfamiliar, and she could feel residual fluids trickling out from between her legs.
At this thought, she couldn’t help but feel her face grow hot.
Even though Zheng Yao was usually calm and clever in handling any situation, encountering such an absurd event had thrown her into disarray.
It took her a long time to calm down.
Zhao Ran returned with a glass of water, having tightly fastened the bathrobe around his waist. He gently handed the water to Zheng Yao and then stood there, not daring to move recklessly.
Zheng Yao took the water, drank a sip, and placed it on the bedside table. Seeing Zhao Ran standing there at a loss, she smiled with a composed expression and said, “Sit down. I’ll continue.”
