Chapter 2552: Mother and Son Facing the Same Enemy (1)

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

The protagonist offered to be in the same car as her rival. Obviously, she was still guarded against the other and was not comfortable with her being alone with Mu Yazhe or any of her kids.

Rong Xuan gladly accepted it.

Both women sat in the back seat, while Youyou sat in the passenger seat. His mother made sure he was buckled up before setting off.

After a long deafening silence inside the vehicle, Rong Xuan took the lead to break the ice.

“Shishi, don’t you and Brother Zhe need some private space?”

“What do you mean?”

“I see you guys always sticking together, won’t you get tired of this?”

“Not really,” replied the actress. “Both of us are usually very busy at work except at night. Each of us is busy with our own business, but as long as he has some free time, he will push aside all his schedules to keep me company.”

“There’s less personal space, isn’t there?”

“He doesn’t need personal space.”

Rong Xuan’s face stiffened for a moment, and then she quickly switched topics. “Speaking of career, what kind of work do you do?”

“I’m an actress.”

“Actress?!” Her rival was really startled to hear that. “So you are a superstar!”

“I’m no superstar. I act because it’s my interest.”

She said softly, “The domestic entertainment industry is a pandemonium. You must take care not to get involved with a bad company. The showbiz is a place of moral filth and debauchery. Brother Zhe takes this value seriously, so you must watch out for yourself!”

The actress sniggered inwardly.

Her rival, under the pretext of giving her some goodwill advice, was actually attacking her with curt remarks!

Looking at the face of the other woman, who could not be more hypocritical at that moment, she merely gave a half-smile and replied, “Thanks for the reminder.”

“Shishi, how did you and Brother Zhe meet?” The other pressed on curiously, seemingly with a hidden agenda. “Do you still remember how you two first met?”

As soon as the words left her mouth, the protagonist’s face changed.

The first time we met?

To be precise, the first time she met him was under a very fortuitous circumstance. She was fired from the company and was carrying her stuff back home when she was accidentally bumped by his approaching car.

That was the first time she had met him.

Although, strictly speaking, their true first meeting was really at a beach house.

That was on a bed which felt foreign to her.

At that time, he was her employer, and she was the contracted surrogate mother hired by his family.

The price was clearly stated—she sold her body for five million yuan just so she could give birth to a child for the Mu family.

As she was not suitable for artificial insemination, they opted for natural conception, instead.

At first, she was extremely resistant; however, all pieces had been set in place and there was no turning back.

She vaguely remembered their first encounter. She was lying in bed, with a piece of red silk covering her face, and then she heard the approaching footsteps from outside the room; the door was pushed open, and along with the cold evening breeze, he swaggered in and sat at the head of the bed.

At that time, he was probably examining her carefully!

He felt nothing for her then; it seemed that he was only performing an ‘examination’ befitting of an employer.

The next thing she knew, without any pleasantries, he asked her to spread herself for him.

She wrinkled her brows at this juncture: What a terrible first encounter!

If it were possible, she would not want to recall it.
