Chapter 280 No One Can Be Happy!
To make matters worse, the walls were paper-thin and the bedframes rickety, which meant that Yue Niang had the dubious honour of being able to count every thrust the man made before he came. Perhaps a pervert would find more pleasure, but all Yue Niang wanted to do was to storm into their apartment and yell at them to shut up.
Also, the highest she counted for thrusts was 60. That man didn't even last five minutes! Back then, she felt intense pity for his wife, who most likely had not gotten any satisfaction from that act.
Come to think of it, the rhythmic thumps sounded oddly familiar. It had been decades, and her memory wasn't as good as before, but the sound of the thumps that echoed in their house were almost like the ones she heard back then, in that dingy apartment!
Yue Niang's eyes narrowed as she connected the puzzle pieces, only to realise she hated the picture they formed. Xin Yu took a quick glance at her mother-in-law and despaired.
There was no way to explain this away! But she had to try!
"Maybe Xue Ning is trying to perfect some martial art moves in her room?" Xin Yu volunteered. "She used to train a lot before she left for Shanghai after all…"
Wei Yan scoffed. Oh, they were certainly training alright. If this was a wuxia novel, they'd be 'dual cultivating' to achieve immortality! He spat out the lemon and yelled.
"Open your eyes everyone, they are fucking -" He wheezed, as Xin Yu 'accidentally' stepped on his hand. She wasn't a heavy woman and she was barefoot, but human hands weren't meant to be stepped on by anyone!
Everyone turned to stare at him, questions in their eyes.
"Annoying!" Xin Yu added at the end. "I think what Wei Yan wanted to say was that they were fucking annoying. I know singlehood is rough, but you should take things easy!"
Wei Yan snorted. "Oh please. Let me spell it out for all of you - they are having sex in your home! What kind of man would take so long to shower? Use your brains everyone! And you!" He turned to Xin Yu with a malicious glint in his eye. "It's so nice of you to help cover for them! Such a supportive sister-in-law!"
Fuck. Xin Yu's face paled.
"Is this true?" Tai Cheng demanded, immediately getting up from his couch. "Xin Yu-ah, are they…"
Before Xin Yu could think of a response, Wei Yan interrupted smugly.
"Mr Li, if you want to find out, all you have to do is to just knock on the bathroom door!" Wei Yan smiled nastily. "Of course, that is if you can endure the sight of what might lie on the other side. Based on personal experience, things can get very messy!"
Xin Yu paled further and she hurriedly sent a panicked text to Xue Ning. If they had sense, they would hurry and right themselves back up again before the family came beating down their door!
"What?!" Yue Niang and Tai Cheng shot each other looks of dismay. From the way Wei Yan spoke, it sounded like Xue Ning and Jingwei already had sex with each other! But there was no way… surely their daughter wouldn't lie to them about something like this!
But then again, she lied to them about dating Jingwei to begin with. She eventually came clean, but she lied! She could have lied about this too!
"Let's go and take a look then," Tai Xuan said, also getting up. He gave Xin Yu a disappointed look. "Wife, if what he's saying is true…"
"Maybe he is, maybe he's not," Xin Yu protested, trying to sound confident. "This is the same man that brought a mob to our house because of his lies. I can't believe you're trusting him over me!"
They paused, considering her words. Just as Xin Yu was beginning to feel that there was some hope for the young couple (and for her), another ominous thud echoed throughout the house.
Oh my god. How were they still going at it?!
"That's it, I'm going to check it out!" Tai Xuan burst out, unable to sit still any longer.
"Wait! I'm coming with you!" Xin Yu declared, immediately chasing after him, hoping to stall him.
Meanwhile, Tai Cheng and Yue Niang traded brief glances as they watched their retreating backs.
? "What do you think?" Tai Cheng whispered.
"We should go take a look." Yue Niang said.
"What if they are actually doing it? I… wouldn't know how to react." Tai Cheng confessed.
"We'll cross that bridge when we arrive at it." Yue Niang said, determined, and the both of them slowly made their own way to the sound of the noise, hoping to high heaven that it wasn't what Wei Yan was claiming!
That left Wei Yan and Ming Guang alone in the living room.
"Finally!" Wei Yan released his diabolical laugh. "That'll teach him to be so arrogant! Fucking her in the house of her parents -"
"How is it even your business?" Ming Guang scolded judgmentally. "They are both grown consenting adults. Even if you reveal their private affairs, Miss Li will never sleep with you willingly."
Wei Yan flushed an angry red. "Who cares! If I can't be happy, no one can!"
=====
"Oi! Li Xue Ning! Sun Jingwei! I know you're inside! Come out now!" Tai Xuan yelled as he stormed to the bathroom. The door was closed, and his face purpled at the thought of these two people canoodling inside it. He slammed his hand against the door angrily.
"Don't ignore me!"
The door swung open silently to reveal an empty bathroom.
"There's no one here," Xin Yu pointed out.
"I can see that," Tai Xuan scowled. "Thanks for stating the obvious, Xin Yu."
"So that Wei Yan was lying! He claimed that they were having sex here. Unless you're telling me that they became invisible, that's not possible." Xin Yu pointed out sarcastically, purposely trying to buy more time.
Tai Xuan paused and thought for a moment. "He may have gotten the venue wrong, but there's only one way to find out if the rest of his words are true!"
