Doctor and His Glamorous Sister-in-Law-Chapter 713 - 716: The Second Batch

Looking at the happily laughing Lu Xiaoyu, Liu Ergou said with an innocent look, "Am I wrong? That woman just isn't very bright!"

"Who does she think she is? She came straight to me and told me not to oppose her son! You have to understand, anyone else would have just attacked you directly instead of saying all that! Seriously!"

Seeing Liu Ergou's earnest expression, Lu Xiaoyu stopped laughing.

"Well, how should I put this..." Lu Xiaoyu said, looking troubled. "Anyway, the gist of it is that even though Shen Manxuan is the matriarch of the Yuan Family, she doesn't actually have much real power. That's why she couldn't come 'sort you out' like you said. She could only come to see you in person and try to intimidate you with her status."

"Also, while Yuan Wenkang is the son of the Yuan Family's patriarch, his personality is really unlikable, and he gets disciplined constantly at home. Shen Manxuan has been warned several times by the patriarch not to spoil Yuan Wenkang too much. But what mother doesn't dote on her son? So, she does some things covertly, trying not to be too conspicuous."

Hearing this, Liu Ergou instantly understood the situation.

This is actually quite interesting.

But a moment later, another question occurred to him. "Xiaoyu, I just realized, doesn't Shen Manxuan know about our relationship?"

Lu Xiaoyu shook her head. "No. Back when I was in Jingdu, we were what you'd call best friends. Then I ran away because of my family situation. Just a little while ago, she suddenly contacted me, asking if I knew someone named Liu Ergou. If I did, she wanted me to set up an introduction; if I didn't, she wanted help finding you. And well, you know the rest!"

After hearing this, Liu Ergou didn't ask any more questions, instead sinking into thought about Shen Manxuan.

Not opposing her son, Yuan Wenkang, is impossible. It's not that I insist on going against him; he was the one who started trouble with me first. If Yuan Wenkang stops bothering me, I can certainly keep my promise and leave him alone. But if he dares to mess with me again, I'll hit back with overwhelming force and teach him an unforgettable lesson.

As Liu Ergou was lost in thought, Lu Xiaoyu suddenly sat down in his lap and wrapped her arms around his neck.

She leaned in and asked mysteriously, "Ergou, tell me the truth. What do you think of that woman, Shen Manxuan?"

Liu Ergou replied instinctively, "What else is there to think? She's gorgeous, of course. Truly a woman from a great family. She takes amazing care of herself. She looks like she's only in her thirties. Tsk, tsk..."

The moment the words left his mouth, Lu Xiaoyu couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Hehehe, Ergou, I knew you'd say that! It seems I made the right call!"

"Huh?" Liu Ergou looked at Lu Xiaoyu, confused. "What right call? I don't understand what you're saying."

Seeing his bewildered expression, Lu Xiaoyu giggled. "Ergou, you're usually so clever. How did you suddenly get so dense? After all I've said, you still don't get what I mean?"

Hearing this, realization dawned on Liu Ergou. "I get it, I get it! So that's the game you're playing!" As he spoke, his hands began to roam freely over Lu Xiaoyu's body, which only made her laugh more happily.

However, Liu Ergou still had some concerns. "Xiaoyu, I understand your idea, but Shen Manxuan is from Jingdu, after all. And from a major family. Can she really be manipulated by you so easily?"

Seeing his worry, Lu Xiaoyu replied seriously, "Ergou, your concerns are valid. But which successful man doesn't have several wives and concubines? Even if not openly, they have plenty in secret. I'll tell you the truth: ever since Shen Manxuan gave birth to Yuan Wenkang, the patriarch of the Yuan Family hasn't been intimate with her once!"

At this, Liu Ergou couldn't help but laugh.

Lu Xiaoyu continued, "As long as she experiences you once, she'll realize she can never leave you. Besides, I have absolute faith in your abilities, Ergou!"

With that, Lu Xiaoyu planted a firm kiss on his cheek.

Looking at Lu Xiaoyu's obedient demeanor, Liu Ergou chuckled, and in one smooth motion, he flipped her over and pinned her down on the sofa. "My dear Xiaoyu is so thoughtful, so good to me! In that case, I'll have to reward you properly today!"

Lu Xiaoyu naturally understood what he meant and immediately gave him a huge surprise.

Gazing at the beautiful scene before him, Liu Ergou couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow, Xiaoyu, fess up! Where did you learn that move?"

However, Lu Xiaoyu didn't answer. She simply flashed a seductive smile and pounced on him. Since they hadn't seen each other for a while, she was especially enthusiastic this time, and Liu Ergou, caught off guard, almost couldn't handle her fervor. Fortunately, he quickly recovered, gradually turning the tables and regaining the upper hand.

「By the time everything was over, it was already the next morning.」

Liu Ergou, who hadn't cultivated in the morning for a long time, finally carved out some time for a proper session. Afterward, he bought breakfast, shared it with Lu Xiaoyu, and planned to head back to the village.

However, before he could even set off, a call came from Lu Shuangyue. Seeing her name on the screen, Liu Ergou assumed she wanted him to buy something, so he answered without hesitation.

"Hello, Shuang Yue, what's up? Do you need me to bring something back for you?" he asked.

"It's not about bringing anything back," Lu Shuangyue said, shaking her head on the other end of the line. "I'm calling to let you know that we have to return to the city. Except for Mi Xiaoying, that is. Mingxue, Orange Bear, and I all have to go back."

Hearing this, Liu Ergou was stunned as if struck by lightning. "What? This is way too sudden!" he exclaimed. "How can you all just leave? I'm not prepared for this at all! Why the rush?"

Hearing his questions, Lu Shuangyue replied, "Ergou, are you dense? I've been here with you for half a month already. It's time for the second batch of Snow Skin Cream to hit the market!"
