Dashing Student

Chapter 338 - 338, Stepmother’s Toy

Pfft!

Lin Xi nearly spat out her food, her face a mask of resignation as she said, "I’m indeed not a child anymore, but... this guy is my brother, he’s two years older than me!"

Yan Jin’s face betrayed an awkward expression.

She suddenly realized that she had been partial, only busy serving Chen Nan and neglecting her daughter’s feelings.

Seeing this, Chen Nan hurriedly picked up his chopsticks and heaped a lot of food onto Lin Xi’s plate.

Not until her dinner plate piled up like a small mountain did he stop, his face breaking into an indulgent smile, "Is that better now?"

"Just like brother is good to me." Lin Xi gave her mother a haughty expression, seemingly showing off the deep sibling bond between them.

Yan Jin’s expression on her face instantly froze.

An ominous premonition rose within her.

As a woman,

her sixth sense told her that the relationship between her daughter and Chen Nan was anything but simple sibling affection!

After all, they had just met.

Their relationship shouldn’t have reached such a stage so soon!

Something was fishy!

There definitely was something fishy between them!

However, where exactly the problem lay, Yan Jin had no answer.

The three of them quietly ate their meal, the atmosphere rather harmonious.

Just then,

Chen Nan suddenly asked, his face full of curiosity, "Auntie, where did the former housemaid, Aunt Sun, go?"

Yan Jin replied, "Sister Sun’s daughter-in-law recently gave birth, so she went back home to look after her grandson."

Lin Xi furrowed her brows, "Mom, that’s not really..."

Before she could finish, Lin Xi interrupted her, "Eat your meal!"

Lin Xi pursed her lips and said no more.

Chen Nan, sitting beside her, also furrowed his brows, feeling as though Aunt Yan was hiding something from him, but since she didn’t want to talk about it, he felt it unnecessary to ask further.

After dinner.

Chen Nan took the initiative to clean up the dining table and tidy up for Aunt Yan.

Yan Jin had not wanted Chen Nan to do such housework, but seeing his determination, she let it be.

Yet,

she felt deeply moved inside.

Because her daughter had never helped her with household chores.

Right after Chen Nan finished tidying up and came down to the living room, Yan Jin came downstairs with a red envelope, smiling as she said, "Chen Nan, it’s the first time we mother and daughter are meeting you, and according to our local custom, I should give you a red envelope. It’s not much, just a little token. Don’t think it’s too little!"

"Thank you, Auntie!"

Chen Nan didn’t refuse Yan Jin’s kind gesture and took the red envelope.

Just like Yan Jin had said,

the amount of money in the red envelope indeed wasn’t much.

Probably just five or six hundred yuan.

At this moment,

Lin Xi, wearing a sky-blue dress, looking like an elf, stepped lightly down the stairs, her beautiful eyes sparkling, "Brother, mom and I are going to the supermarket to buy some household supplies. Do you need anything?"

Chen Nan smiled and said, "It seems I don’t need anything."

"Then you rest at home, we’ll be right back." Lin Xi said, fondly linking arms with her mother, and soon the two left the house, chatting and laughing.

"This isn’t like mother and daughter, they’re clearly like sisters!" Chen Nan exclaimed with a laugh, then took the elevator to the third-floor guest room, Aunt Yan’s room.

The purpose was simple.

He intended to move Aunt Yan’s bedding and toiletries to the master bedroom on the second floor.

After all.

That was the master’s bedroom.

He wanted to show Aunt Yan with this attitude that not only had he realized the mistake he made two years ago, but he had also acknowledged her position in the family.

"Hmm?"

The moment he stepped into the bathroom, Chen Nan furrowed his brows. What caught his eye were some very cheap cosmetics, even though he knew nothing about makeup.

But...

Nie Xiaoyu had used these kinds of personal care products before—each bottle was only twenty to thirty yuan!

"Living in a mansion worth over a hundred million, yet using such cheap personal care products?" Chen Nan’s face was full of suspicion, and a big question arose in his heart.

After all, his father was the company’s largest shareholder, earning dividends of more than twenty million every year. Even if he were no longer present, it should not affect the family’s normal income!

He thought about Lin Xi’s excited expression upon seeing six dishes.

And the resignation of the housekeeper.

As well as the six hundred yuan red envelope in his pocket.

Chen Nan keenly sensed that there seemed to be a problem with the family’s financial situation.

But what exactly it was,

He didn’t know.

He didn’t think too much about it and packed all the personal care products into a plastic box, planning to move these items to the master bedroom to surprise Aunt Yan when she returned.

However.

Just as Chen Nan was opening the cabinet under the washbasin, his pupils suddenly trembled, and his breathing became rapid.

He had not anticipated

Seeing things in the cabinet he shouldn’t have seen.

Inside the cabinet were two adult toys, one made of pure rubber with a suction base, complete with uneven veins, looking pink and tender.

Only it was quite thin and short.

The other was much thicker, and what’s more, it was electric.

Beyond that.

Chen Nan also saw two boxes of condoms, and a bottle of lubricant.

After the shock subsided,

Chen Nan’s inner turmoil eased.

Aunt Yan was also a woman with physical needs.

It was within reason for her to have such items.

With this thought, Chen Nan’s guilt grew deeper: "It’s all my fault for being willful. If I hadn’t prevented my father and Aunt Yan from living together, how could she possibly need to use these things?"

He sighed quietly to himself and then closed the cabinet.

Afterward, he returned to Aunt Yan’s bedroom, rolled up the bedding on the bed, carried it up to the master bedroom on the second floor, and after spreading it out, a satisfied expression appeared on his face.

He did not pack Aunt Yan’s clothes, as, after all, there were differences between men and women, and it would be too impolite.

But just then.

His phone rang, displaying Lin Xi’s number.

He pressed the answer button, and Lin Xi’s pleasing voice came through: "Brother, the weather is changing outside, it might rain in a bit, could you go upstairs and clean up the clothes?"

"Oh, sure," Chen Nan replied, then turned to look outside the window.

Sure enough.

The sky, once clear, was now covered with dark clouds, and a howling wind was whipping through the air.

Without realizing it,

The rainy season had arrived.

Without much hesitation, he moved as fast as he could to the top floor.

Fortunately, with the hot weather, the bedsheets he had washed earlier had already dried.

Without time to fold the sheets, he quickly gathered up all the laundry from the clothesline, but when he got to Aunt Yan’s clothes, a palm-sized thong made his pupils tremble fiercely.

The palm-sized thong blew violently in the wind, its leopard print pattern deeply stimulating Chen Nan’s mind.

Because he knew, leopard print signified a very strong sexual desire...
