Lin Yuefeng suddenly felt disheartened. Life seemed meaningless now. He understood that offending someone like Li Lei had ruined his future. Coupled with the embezzlement, such a huge amount of cash would make it impossible for him to live a good life.
"I'll talk, I'll tell you everything..." Lin Yuefeng began with difficulty, and in his despair, he recounted everything he could remember, one by one.
At Hongcheng Garden Villa, Zhou Xuan served his mother some porridge and then put her to bed. Zhou Ying found it strange and asked, "Brother, Mom has never gone to bed this early before. In this family, Mom is always the last to go to bed and the first to get up. Why is she going to bed so early today?"
Zhou Xuan said casually, "Mom went shopping with Aunt Liu today, and her legs are sore. It seems like her rheumatism from a few years ago has flared up a bit. But don't worry, I've already taken Mom to the hospital for a checkup, and it's nothing serious. Just walk less and be careful not to get cold."
"Oh, then I'll buy some medicine for Mom's bruises tomorrow," Zhou Ying said, relieved that her brother had mentioned the matter so casually.
Li Wei now lives at Zhou Xuan's house almost all the time. Anyway, Zhou Xuan's villa has enough rooms, and since Fu Ying's great-grandmother went back, there is no one else in the house. Li Wei's stay has added a lot of fun to the house.
Liu Sao was too frightened. Although Zhou Xuan had repeatedly told her to be careful, she was still not in good spirits after returning. Li Wei, who was very observant, also told her to go to bed and rest early. Anyway, Zhou Tao came back late, so it was fine if he didn't eat dinner. Everyone else knew except for Zhou Ying, so it wouldn't be a secret. Zhou Cangsong lived in the antique shop and only came back two days a week.
Some went to sleep, others went back to their rooms, leaving only Zhou Xuan and Fu Ying in the living room.
Fu Ying sighed and said to Zhou Xuan with concern, "I'm worried about Mom. What happened today was a huge blow to her. Mom is such a kind person, she definitely won't forget something like this in a short time. I think... I think..."
Zhou Xuan frowned in deep thought. Given his stubborn personality, this was indeed a huge blow. Even killing that scoundrel Lin Guodong wouldn't have eased his anger, and no matter what he did to him, it wouldn't heal the trauma his mother had suffered. Only time would allow her to gradually lessen the damage. It was a pity that while his superpower was powerful, it couldn't erase memories. Otherwise, he could have erased his mother's memories of today, making her forget what happened.
"How about this?" Fu Ying pondered for a moment, then said, "Zhou Xuan, from now on I'll stay home and keep Mom company. Anyway, I don't need to work to earn money for the family. I want to spend more time with Mom. Although Brother Hong arranged for Brother Chang to protect Mom, he's a man. Although he's skilled, he's not very good at taking care of Mom. It will be much better if I stay with her."
Zhou Xuan felt a surge of warmth in his heart, reached out and grasped Fu Ying's small hands, saying, "Yingying, I owe you so much, I can never repay it in this lifetime."
Fu Ying casually replied, "Fine, then I'll punish you by making you repay my debt for lifetimes to come."
These words were spoken casually by Fu Ying, but she felt a little embarrassed and annoyed afterward. She was still angry with him, so why did she inadvertently give him a nice look?
She really couldn't help but smile, and she would forget about her stern face at any time. Sometimes she would clearly think about it, but she would forget it in the blink of an eye. For example, right now, she admitted to herself that she wanted him to repay her debt for all eternity. Doesn't that mean she wanted him to accompany her for all eternity?
Zhou Xuan chuckled, then pulled Fu Ying upstairs, saying as they walked, "You've had a long day, get some rest."
The two walked back to their room laughing as they went. Zhou Xuan slept on his sofa as usual, and Fu Ying slept on her bed as usual. Both of them acted very naturally.
Zhou Xuan found it strange. In other places, he always had trouble sleeping at night. He would either practice martial arts or read books. Reading books made it easier for him to fall asleep. But since returning to this home, it was strange. He didn't need to practice martial arts or read books to sleep at night. As long as he could see Fu Ying sleeping peacefully in bed, he felt extremely calm. He felt that this was the most wonderful life in the world, and he would fall asleep very easily.
Fu Ying used to feel shy when she was alone with Zhou Xuan, but now she doesn't feel shy at all. Before, she could say that she had to put on an act in front of her in-laws and pretend that she and Zhou Xuan had a happy married life. But later, she didn't have to pretend anymore, and it just came out naturally. Now she's gotten used to it and subconsciously feels that way. She never expected that she was still angry and quarreling with Zhou Xuan. She often has to think about it carefully before she understands.
But now, seeing Zhou Xuan sleeping peacefully on the sofa, looking like a child, she couldn't help but feel a surge of tenderness in her heart. Although she was still angry with him, deep down, she knew from the beginning that she would never abandon or forget him, and would never truly be angry with him.
Fu Ying suddenly couldn't help but secretly get up, tiptoe to the sofa where Zhou Xuan was sleeping, and then quietly sit down next to him. She stared intently at Zhou Xuan's sleeping face, her heart filled with love. In her tenderness, she reached out and gently stroked Zhou Xuan's face.
Zhou Xuan groaned and shifted his body. Fu Ying was so frightened that she froze and didn't dare to move. Zhou Xuan seemed to be dreaming. When he reached out and touched Fu Ying's body, he naturally hugged her. Fu Ying's soft body felt extremely comfortable in his arms.
Fu Ying was quite frightened. When Zhou Xuan hugged her, Fu Ying was afraid that Zhou Xuan would wake up, so she fell down along his arm. However, it felt a bit tight for the two of them to lie on the sofa together. Zhou Xuan comfortably hugged Fu Ying, with one leg draped over Fu Ying's thigh.
Fu Ying was both ashamed and annoyed. She moved slightly but dared not push him away. Although Zhou Xuan was asleep, he held her very tightly, and Fu Ying could not break free. She had no choice but to let him have his way.
At this moment, Fu Ying was facing Zhou Xuan and hugging him. Although she was shy, she felt less shy when she saw that Zhou Xuan had his eyes closed. But she wondered if Zhou Xuan was pretending to be asleep so that he could take advantage of her.
Fu Ying secretly glanced at Zhou Xuan again and saw that although his eyes were closed, his eyelids were twitching. Fu Ying understood that this was the expression of someone dreaming. It seemed that Zhou Xuan was not pretending to be asleep in order to attack her.
Fu Ying was secretly pleased. As long as Zhou Xuan wasn't pretending to be asleep, she was quite intoxicated by his sleeping appearance. It also felt good to be close to him. Although they had been married for a long time, they had never had real married life. Now that they were squeezed together on the sofa, they really looked like a married couple.
In a daze, Zhou Xuan suddenly mumbled something, his voice very soft and indistinct, but Fu Ying was too close to hear him clearly. He was saying, "Yingying, don't leave me, Yingying, don't leave me."
Overwhelmed with emotion, Fu Ying whispered softly, "I will never leave you, never." As she spoke, she hugged Zhou Xuan tightly. Although the sofa was narrow, the two of them fell asleep in each other's arms.
Zhou Xuan wasn't pretending; he was truly asleep. He was just dreaming about Fu Ying, which is why he was talking in his sleep. He slept soundly and woke up to find a soft, gentle presence in his arms. When he opened his eyes, he saw that the room was dimly lit, but he could clearly see that the person he was holding and sleeping in his arms was Fu Ying. He was startled and his mind went blank.
I looked out the window and saw only a very faint light; it was probably only four or five o'clock, the sky just before dawn.
The early morning hours are when a person's blood is at its most vigorous, and Zhou Xuan, being a normal man, was no exception, especially with such a beautiful woman like Fu Ying embracing him.
Zhou Xuan blushed, his ears burning and his heart pounding. He had always felt tenderness and affection for Fu Ying before, but now, seeing her nestled in his arms, her charming appearance was exceptionally alluring, and his heart began to race.

Chapter 526 A Perfect Union
Fu Ying woke up at that moment and was about to reach out when she opened her eyes to find that Zhou Xuan was hugging her. She was stunned for a moment before she remembered that she had fallen asleep on the sofa at night and had forgotten to go back to bed.
Seeing Zhou Xuan staring at her with wide eyes, Fu Ying blushed with embarrassment and quickly pushed him away to get up and go to bed. But Zhou Xuan was not about to let her get away and held her even tighter.
Fu Ying was both ashamed and anxious, and angrily said, "Let me go...let me go!"
Zhou Xuan's body was intertwined with Fu Ying's, and he had already aroused his reaction. Therefore, Fu Ying was even more embarrassed and struggled. But to be honest, her body was unexpectedly weak. She didn't know why, her face was hot, and she didn't know where all her strength had gone. Zhou Xuan was holding her and she couldn't break free.
Unable to suppress his impulse, Zhou Xuan picked up Fu Ying and rushed to the bedside, throwing both of them onto the bed.
Fu Ying struggled for a moment, but now she couldn't break free. Zhou Xuan's strength was astonishing; he tore at Fu Ying's clothes with a "thud." Fu Ying's face turned as red as if it were about to bleed. She had no strength left, but she managed to say with all her might, "You...you let me go..."
Zhou Xuan didn't let go, but instead kissed her, sealing Fu Ying's lips with his own. Fu Ying made a few "mmm" sounds, then gradually fell silent, and finally ended up in a passionate kiss with Zhou Xuan.
Seeing that Fu Ying was gradually becoming more responsive, but her face was still flushed with embarrassment and she dared not open her eyes, Zhou Xuan had a sudden idea. He quickly pulled the blanket over her head, and the two of them began to move vigorously under the blanket, which rippled like waves...
Once everything was completely still, the light from outside shone through the curtains and illuminated the room considerably; it was almost dawn.
Zhou Xuan gently lifted part of the blanket, revealing that both of them were completely naked. Fu Ying blushed deeply, her eyes too red to open, and both of them were covered in sweat.
Sweat beaded on Fu Ying's forehead, sticking a few strands of hair to her forehead. Zhou Xuan gently brushed them away with his fingers, making Fu Ying's charming face appear even more delicate.
After a while, Fu Ying opened her eyes. Her dark, star-like eyes looked shyly at Zhou Xuan. Seeing Zhou Xuan smiling at her, she couldn't help but bite Zhou Xuan's shoulder hard.
Zhou Xuan winced in pain, but held back his cries. Although Fu Ying pretended to be fierce, she actually released her grip as soon as the bite hurt Zhou Xuan. She couldn't bear to make Zhou Xuan bleed, but the current scene was too embarrassing. She felt that Zhou Xuan had bullied her too much, and it would be too embarrassing not to act fiercely.
But a woman, when she is a girl, will be reserved and demure, but once she becomes a woman, no matter how fierce she pretends to be, there will only be this man in her heart.
While she was still angry with Zhou Xuan, she unknowingly found herself being taken advantage of by him. Fu Ying gritted her teeth and couldn't help but hit Zhou Xuan's chest again, angrily saying, "It's all your fault, it's all your fault, it's all your fault!"
