Chapter 443: Lovers

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After the women had left, Mrs. Wang found no humor in anything. Everything seemed to irritate her. When her son came asking for food, she tossed him a cold meat bun with a scowl. “Eat, eat, eat, that’s all you know. Your dead grandmother doesn’t care for you anymore, and now you’re stuck with me. I must be cursed to have to look after you! ”

She was at a loss as to how to deal with Gu Zi and the Lin family, especially considering the formidable Su Shen backing them.

Mrs. Wang was livid. Had she known the true nature of this place, she would never have married Yang Tao. If she had known about the existence of a character like Su Shen, she wouldn’t have wasted her efforts on Yang Tao.

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. It wasn’t until her old lover came to visit her late at night that she found some amusement in her otherwise dull and tedious day.

The man, seeking excitement, scaled the wall and entered the house. He flung open the door and threw himself onto the bed, pulling Mrs. Wang into a passionate kiss. They hadn’t seen each other in a while, and their reunion was intense, disregarding the sleeping child on the bed.

Seeing the man starting to undress her, Mrs. Wang playfully squirmed and whispered, “Brother Ah Zhuang, let’s do it outside.”

Ah Zhuang didn’t waste words. He carried her outside, quickly undressed, and began to grind against her with his yet-to-be-aroused member. Once he was hard, he penetrated her. After finishing, he sat on the edge of the bed, smoking a cigarette with a furrowed brow.

Mrs. Wang also lit a cigarette, watching the man. “You haven’t visited me in a while. I missed you. But seeing how troubled you look, I guess you came because you’re worried about something.”

Despite having more than one lover, Mrs. Wang had a way of making each man feel like he was the one she was most looking forward to seeing. It was all thanks to her sweet words. She firmly believed that as long as she was sweet enough, she could manipulate any man.

Ah Zhuang extinguished his cigarette, rising to his feet and pulling on his trousers. “Today has been nothing but trouble,” he grumbled, his brow furrowed in irritation. “I wonder what bad luck has befallen me. Are you not planning to bring your mother-in-law back? As far as I know, the Lin family is opening a shop and they’re planning to have your mother-in-law help out.”

Mrs. Wang exhaled a cloud of smoke, her lips curling into a nonchalant smile. “Let her do as she pleases. She eats plenty but does little work. Only the Lin family would be willing to hire such a useless old woman. But from the sound of it, you seem quite dissatisfied with the Lin family as well.”

As it happened, she had been worrying about how to teach her mother-in-law a lesson. Now, it seemed, a useful ally had presented himself.

With a calculating glint in her eye, Mrs. Wang rose to her feet and fetched a jar of wine. A thoughtful smile played at the corners of her mouth, but it vanished as she turned back to face Ah Zhuang, replaced by a coquettish demeanor aimed at the man.

Ah Zhuang accepted the jar of wine and began to drink, appreciating that this woman understood him. He was feeling stifled due to the day’s events, and she knew to offer him wine, a gesture far more thoughtful than anything his dull wife would do.

He beckoned her over with a lordly air, completely oblivious to the sweet-talking woman’s underlying schemes.

“Come sit with me and have a drink,” he commanded. “After we finish, we’ll have to finish this jar of wine too! I’m so frustrated. Gu Zi is the boss’s woman and Lin family’s biological daughter. The Lin family’s money comes from Su Shen. Does it make a difference whether the Lin family pays for the goods or not? The cowards at the factory, they just follow wherever that woman leads.

“Your mother-in-law is also to blame. She’s born to be a servant, yet she refuses to accept her fate. She ran away after you scolded her a few times, and now she’s trying to steal my mother’s work. Who does she think I am? Damn it! I was one of the first people to agree to work with Su Shen. I’m a veteran at the factory!”

As Ah Zhuang spoke, he drank more and more wine. The more he thought about it, the more frustrated he became. He had worked at the factory for so long, yet he hadn’t received any special benefits. He often tried to impress Su Shen, but Su Shen seemed to ignore him, not even considering promoting him. Instead, he favored Gu Zi and that fool Lin Cheng!

The more Ah Zhuang thought about it, the angrier he became, and the more he drank. Mrs. Wang claimed to be drinking with him, but in reality, she was getting him drunk. A man half-drunk and half-sober was the most useful. At this point, as long as she coaxed him properly, he would dare to do anything, even commit murder or arson. This was exactly the effect Mrs. Wang was aiming for…

Late into the night, the light in the master bedroom of the Su family’s house was still on. Shadows moved by the window, and the heavy atmosphere of desire was so thick it seemed it wouldn’t dissipate..
