Quick Transmigration: The Villain Is Too Pampered and Alluring - Chapter 116

That night, the slightly tipsy Sheng Nuan was particularly obedient, her eyes shimmering as she softly called him “husband.” Fu Yunxi felt like he was losing his mind. Only after he made her cry did he finally catch his breath, gently kissing the tears at the corners of her eyes.

“Alright, stop crying, I won’t touch you anymore… be good.”

The next morning, when he opened his eyes, he saw Sheng Nuan sleeping sweetly in his arms.

Her cheeks were slightly flushed, her lips parted slightly, and her lip pearls curved upward, revealing two small teeth… Fu Yunxi didn’t even notice the softness in his eyes as he lowered his head and softly kissed her.

But when Sheng Nuan woke up and told him she was going home that evening, Fu Yunxi’s good mood came to an abrupt halt.

Today was his birthday, and she wanted to leave.

But after a moment’s thought, he realized that he’d have to return to the old family house for his birthday. He certainly couldn’t bring her to meet his mother.

As that thought crossed his mind, Fu Yunxi paused again.

Because he suddenly realized that the idea of bringing Sheng Nuan home didn’t feel repulsive at all…

Just like the previous days, Fu Yunxi dropped Sheng Nuan off at school before taking a detour to the company…

At lunchtime, he was invited to a restaurant for a business meeting. But to his surprise, while talking with his associate, he saw Sheng Nuan walk in with a middle-aged couple.

It must be her parents.

What were the chances… Fu Yunxi’s lips curled slightly.

Father Sheng was speaking mysteriously, saying he knew of a great restaurant and wanted to take the mother and daughter to try it, but he refused to tell Sheng Nuan which restaurant it was. When they arrived, it turned out the restaurant required reservations.

Father Sheng was a bit embarrassed, laughing awkwardly. “Well, we’ll come back next time.”

Mother Sheng didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “You old man, why were trying to be so mysterious? You should’ve just told us from the start…”

Sheng Nuan also smiled, comforting them, “It’s fine, let’s just go somewhere else.”

Seeing that the three of them were about to leave, Fu Yunxi quickly called over a server and gave a few brief instructions.

Just as Sheng Nuan and her parents were about to leave, they were suddenly stopped by a server who had rushed over to catch them.

“Please wait a moment. It just so happens that one of our tables is available due to a no-show. We can offer the spot to you.”

By that point, Sheng Nuan had already known from customer service that Fu Yunxi was at the restaurant… She and her parents were led inside, and sure enough, she saw Fu Yunxi sitting across from another man in a suit. They seemed quite familiar with each other and were deep in conversation.

Their gazes met, and the corner of Fu Yunxi’s lips curved upward, giving her a somewhat smug look.

Sheng Nuan pursed her lips.

Childish!

When their food arrived, there were a few extra dishes in addition to what they had ordered. Sheng Nuan knew exactly what was going on but couldn’t say anything.

Father Sheng was a bit puzzled and called over a server to ask. The server explained that the dishes were from a no-show customer’s order, and since the customer didn’t show up, they were being offered to them for free.

Father Sheng was overjoyed, eating and enthusiastically saying, “We’re definitely coming back here next time. So considerate!”

Sheng Nuan: ……

Being so naive, I really don’t know how he manages his subordinates.

Just then, her phone buzzed. She pulled it out to see a message from Fu Yunxi.

Fu Yunxi: Come to the restroom.

Sheng Nuan found it a bit odd, but she still got up and went over.

As soon as she reached the restroom area, she was pulled into a secluded corner by someone… Fu Yunxi said nothing as he grabbed her chin and kissed her.

After a moment, he let go.

Sheng Nuan was unable to laugh nor cry. “What are you doing?”

Fu Yunxi coughed lightly. “Didn’t know to say hello when we met?”

Sheng Nuan laughed. “Is this how you say hello?”

Fu Yunxi huffed but didn’t respond. Sheng Nuan pushed him away. “Alright, this is a restaurant. I still have to finish my meal.”

With that, she turned and left.

Watching her walk away, Fu Yunxi gritted his teeth angrily.

Heartless woman… That lobster they were eating was originally reserved for him by the restaurant.

Such a big lobster—was one kiss too much to ask in return?

That evening, Fu Yunxi returned to the old family house.

The household staff was busy, fresh flowers adorned the table, and his mother was in the kitchen.

Fu Yunjin clattered down the stairs. “Hey, I heard the sound of your car… Happy birthday, bro! Congratulations on turning one year older.”

Fu Yunxi gave him an exasperated look. “If you can’t speak properly, just keep your mouth shut.”

Fu Yunjin grinned. “Come on, I gave you well wishes. Now hand over the red envelope.”

Fu Yunxi laughed angrily. “It’s my birthday, and you’re asking me for a red envelope… Where’s your face?”

Fu Yunjin pouted. “You’re richer than me, I don’t care… If you don’t give it, I’ll tell Sister Nuan how stingy you are, you penny-pinching iron rooster¹!”

Fu Yunxi’s face turned dark.

Fu Yunjin was only joking, not expecting to actually use the little canary to threaten his brother. But seconds later, his phone dinged with a notification.

Seeing the notification of a one million yuan deposit, Fu Yunjin turned around in disbelief. “Bro?”

Fu Yunxi shot him a glance. “Stop hanging around me when you have nothing to do…”

Soon after, the dishes were served, and Fu Yunxi’s mother, Shen Yuan, carefully brought out a cake.

“A’Xi, mother made this cake for you myself…” Shen Yuan looked at Fu Yunxi cautiously. “Do you like it?”

The cake was delicately made, and it was clear that she had spent a lot of time on it. Fu Yunxi nodded and said warmly, “I like it. Thank you, Mom.”

At that moment, he noticed a patch of blisters from a burn on the side of Shen Yuan’s hand… On her delicate palm, it looked rather alarming.

Fu Yunxi paused for a moment, then said, “You don’t need to do this in the future. You can just have someone buy it from outside.”

Shen Yuan’s hands froze in place as she set the cake down, then she turned to look at Fu Yunxi, her voice trembling, “You don’t want the cakes I make, do you?”

Her eyes instantly turned red, and her voice wavered with a hint of nervous desperation.

Fu Yunjin’s expression didn’t change, but he immediately looked at Fu Yunxi with concern.

Fu Yunxi tried to explain, “No, that’s not what I—”

But before he could finish, Shen Yuan cut him off with a pained cry, “After all these years, A’Xi, you still can’t forgive your mother?”

Suddenly, a sharp pain shot through Fu Yunxi’s stomach, and his face turned pale.

He pressed his lips together and spoke softly, “No, it’s long past…”

“Lies!”

Shen Yuan cried, “All these years, you’ve never smiled at me. Fifteen years, A’Xi, fifteen years… You say you’ve forgiven me, but you’ve never smiled at me.”

Fu Yunxi was now completely pale.

After a brief pause, he suddenly stood up. “I have some work to do at the company. I’ll leave first.”

Fu Yunjin quickly got up. “Brother…”

Fu Yunxi ignored him, grabbed his coat, and strode out…

The carefully crafted warmth of the moment instantly shattered into nothing. Fu Yunjin hesitated, wanting to say something, but in the end, he simply walked over and gently embraced his mother to comfort her…

Fu Yunxi left the house and drove away.

Feeling restless, he hadn’t driven far before he pulled over to the side of the road, turned on the hazard lights, and slumped over the steering wheel, enduring wave after wave of stomach spasms.

His heart felt cold and confused.

He had tried so hard, so hard… but why was it still like this?

The throbbing pain in his stomach easily dragged him back to fifteen years ago. The feeling was exactly the same as now: stomach cramps, pain throughout his body, and then, with helpless eyes, he watched his own mother push him to the ground and rush past him toward the rescue workers on the other side…
