Quick Transmigration: The Villain Is Too Pampered and Alluring - Chapter 117

In his childhood memories, there were many chaotic and fragmented images. In those images, his mother was screaming at him, crying and cursing, but he couldn’t remember what exactly she said.

When he was younger, his mother had indeed rejected him… But even so, she still did her best to take care of him, so he didn’t really feel like he was lacking anything compared to others.

That was until the year he turned ten, when he and his mother were kidnapped together after she picked him up from school.

They were locked in a dark warehouse for three whole days. It was just the two of them in the dark warehouse, with no food, only two bottles of water.

He listened as his mother’s cries for help eventually turned into sobs, then into shrill curses, and finally, she huddled up in a corner, quiet and numb…

He stayed quiet the whole time, his stomach aching from hunger, his body shivering from fever.

In his daze, he heard noises outside—voices over walkie-talkies and the sound of police sirens. Then, the warehouse doors were pushed open.

He called out, “Mom,” but there was no response. Struggling to get up, he went to check and saw that his mother had fallen into a deep sleep.

He thought vaguely that he needed to go out and get help.

In a daze, he stumbled forward, running out… How far? Five meters? Ten? Then suddenly, a strong force hit him from behind.

He was knocked to the ground and then saw his mother running out desperately, without looking back…

Of course, he was rescued as well, and he spent a day and a night in the hospital, sleeping. That whole time, he was plagued by nightmares. In his dream, he lay on the ground, watching his mother, the person closest to him in the world, walk away without looking back…

Fu Yunxi hadn’t been physically injured in that incident, but something inside him had been destroyed completely.

He had told his mother countless times that he forgave her. But his mother always said that he harbored resentment. He really didn’t.

He understood that his mother was a victim too at the time, but even so, he could never forget the despair and coldness of that moment.

After some time, the spasms in his stomach subsided, and Fu Yunxi started the car again, driving toward his home.

Sheng Nuan wouldn’t be there today… which was just as well. He could have some time alone to think…

When Sheng Nuan received the call, she was watching a video of her competition with her parents. To be honest, it was pretty awkward.

Don’t know how many times the old couple has watched it, but they still seem to enjoy it.

Her phone vibrated, and she saw it was Fu Yunjin calling, so she got up and stepped aside.

Fu Yunjin’s voice, unusually low, came through the line, “Sister Nuan, did my brother go back home?”

Sheng Nuan was puzzled. “I don’t know, I’m at my parents’ house.”

Fu Yunjin sighed.

My brother is so miserable!

He asked cautiously, “Sister Nuan, could you maybe go check on him? He had a fight with my mom…”

Sheng Nuan was about to decline when Fu Yunjin added, “Today’s his birthday. If he’s left alone, it’s going to be really sad.”

Sheng Nuan fell silent, then replied, “Alright, I’ll head over now.”

Fu Yunjin sighed in relief. “Thank you, Sister Nuan. My brother will definitely be happy to see you…”

Sheng Nuan chuckled softly, then hung up the phone.

Sheng Nuan casually made up an excuse to her parents, saying she needed to return to school, and then headed out to catch a taxi…

When Fu Yunxi returned home, Aunt Liu was cleaning the kitchen. She was startled to see him come back. “You’re back, sir. Would you like something to eat?”

Fu Yunxi shook his head. “No need, you can rest. Don’t worry about me.”

Aunt Liu insisted, “Let me cook you a bowl of noodles, sir. You should eat something.”

Fu Yunxi hesitated for a moment, then nodded. “Alright, thank you.”

“It’s no trouble at all. You go about your business, I’ll bring it up to you in a while…”

Fu Yunxi went upstairs, and after a moment of silence as he looked at the empty and silent room, he headed to his study.

He sat at the desk, rubbing his eyes with his head lowered, feeling as if the coldness around him was almost becoming tangible… the silence was suffocating.

Just then, footsteps sounded outside.

Assuming it was Aunt Liu, Fu Yunxi didn’t look up. “Just leave it anywhere, thank you.”

There was no response. He was about to lift his head when someone wrapped their arms around him from behind…

Sheng Nuan leaned on his back, hugging his neck with a playful smile. “Did I scare you?”

Fu Yunxi froze for a moment. “Weren’t you going to stay at home?”

Sheng Nuan playfully pinched his ear. “I missed you…”

Fu Yunxi was silent for a moment, then turned and pulled her onto his lap, holding her by the waist as he kissed her… Moments later, as things started to spiral out of control, Sheng Nuan quickly pushed him away, saying, “Wait…”

Before she could finish, Fu Yunxi grabbed her hand and kissed her again. She laughed helplessly. “It’s still early. How about we go out and have some fun?”

Fu Yunxi paused. “Go out?”

Sheng Nuan nodded. “Yes, it’s only a little after seven. We can go out to play for a bit… You can’t always be focused on the bed, Mr. Fu. Young people should know how to exercise moderation.”

Fu Yunxi felt both embarrassed and annoyed. “Who’s only focused on the bed…”

“Okay, okay, it’s my fault. I’m the one who’s improper, while Mr. Fu is pure and virtuous like the bright moon and clear breeze.”

As Sheng Nuan playfully teased him, she pulled Fu Yunxi along to change his clothes, getting him to swap his perfectly tailored suit for a pair of casual pants and a windbreaker.

Once Fu Yunxi was dressed, she patted him. “You look much younger now.”

Fu Yunxi’s expression turned dark. “Do I usually look that old?”

Sheng Nuan burst out laughing. “Yeah, right, you old pervert…”

Fu Yunxi gritted his teeth, trying to catch her, but she slipped away like a loach, calling out over her shoulder with a raised eyebrow, “Hurry up, don’t dawdle!”

The two of them went downstairs. Aunt Liu, who was wiping the dining table, smiled as she said, “Miss Sheng mentioned you were going out to eat, so I didn’t prepare anything.”

Fu Yunxi responded, “You should rest early.”

After changing their shoes, the two of them held hands and walked out together.

Aunt Liu smiled as she withdrew her gaze, her eyes full of contentment and relief…

Fu Yunxi chose a relatively low-profile Range Rover from the garage. After they drove out of the neighborhood, he asked Sheng Nuan, “Where are we going?”

Sheng Nuan opened the navigation app and entered the location of a trendy street not too far from where they were… a popular hotspot for social media influencers recently.

The only downside was that parking was far from the main street.

After they got out of the car, Sheng Nuan slipped her hand into Fu Yunxi’s, and he glanced down at their clasped hands, the corners of his mouth lifting slightly.

They had obviously done the most intimate things, but at this moment, walking down the street and simply holding hands made the tips of his ears feel hot for no reason.

Why is this little lover so clingy? Forget it, no need to fuss over small things. If she wants to hold hands, let her.

By eight o’clock, the street was bustling with people, most of them young and fashionably dressed, laughing and chatting in small groups, full of life and energy.

Before long, Sheng Nuan found the popular juice bar she had been looking for and dragged Fu Yunxi over to line up.

Seeing the long queue outside the store, Fu Yunxi asked curiously, “Is it that good?”

Sheng Nuan nodded. “It should be. Everyone says it’s delicious.”

Fu Yunxi couldn’t even remember the last time he had done something like this…

Lining up? In the time it took to wait in line, he could have made back the cost of an entire store.

But seeing Sheng Nuan’s excited expression, he felt that he couldn’t view it that way…
