Chapter 10: Chapter 10 Who is the Man Holding You?
Mrs. Fu, if she cared, could tell at a glance that the one beside Fu Shilv was not Sheng Youxia.
Since Liang Nianwei wanted to be the "other woman", she should stop hiding behind and come out for everyone to see.
On the cruise, Xiao Rui was browsing his phone when he suddenly saw Tang Hui's social media update.
Ji Xingtang leaned over, his eyes wide in surprise, "It's rare, why do you have that redhead's WeChat?"
"It's a long story, I was introduced to her before."
"..."
Xiao Rui opened the photos, swiping one after another, and when the last one popped up, his eyes went wide.
Ji Xingtang watched, his blood racing — men are visual creatures, who could stand this scene?
"Is this Tang Hui?"
"Bullshit," Xiao Rui said bluntly, "She's flat-chested, how could it be so tumultuous?"
"Then it is..." Ji Xingtang immediately thought of Sheng Youxia, as it was only the two of them together tonight.
"What are you guys looking at?"
The voice of Fu Shilv, mingled with a cold breeze, made the two men's skin tighten.
Ji Xingtang felt inexplicably guilty, "Nothing!"
Fu Shilv had already approached them, and Xiao Rui hurriedly tried to exit, but the man saw it.
He snatched the phone, and what he saw was a photo with a chest being squeezed by two hands.
The voluptuous breasts were tightly pinched by a pair of hands, revealing enticing pale skin between the fingers, along with a deep cleavage.
Prominent peaks and distinct valleys.
Fu Shilv glanced at it, it was sent by Tang Hui.
A silent rage filled him, his jaw tightened, "Delete it."
Xiao Rui coughed lightly, "I didn't send this."
Fu Shilv examined the hands squeezing the chest more closely, and from the knuckles, deduced they were a woman's.
That meant Tang Hui squeezed Sheng Youxia.
Ji Xingtang and Xiao Rui had already looked away, pretending they hadn't seen anything.
Fu Shilv took Liang Nianwei back to the hospital; she was blind, clutching a corner of the man's coat, walking very slowly.
"Dr. Fu, were the fireworks beautiful tonight?"
Fu Shilv seemed somewhat distracted, "Hmm."
"What kinds were there?"
"Very soon, you'll be able to see them for yourself."
Liang Nianwei had been melancholic, but this trip had completely changed her spirit.
"Dr. Fu, how much is the surgery really going to cost?"
Fu Shilv's gaze fell on her face; she wore no valuable clothes. Looking closely, even the scarf around her neck was frayed.
"That's not for you to worry about."
Liang Nianwei reached into her pocket and pulled out a piece of paper, handing it to Fu Shilv.
"What is this?"
Seeing that Fu Shilv didn't reach out to take it, she hurriedly grabbed his hand. His fingertips felt slightly cool, his palm dry.
Blushing, Liang Nianwei quickly stuffed the paper into his hand.
Fu Shilv opened it and saw a promissory note, the handwriting crooked, written stroke by stroke by her.
"If you don't take it, I won't have the surgery."
Fu Shilv stared at her, well aware of her family's financial situation.
"Dr. Fu, I'll be able to see soon, and then I can go out and earn money. I want to pay you back on my own."
Her words were sincere and clear, as if there was light in her eyes.
Fu Shilv folded the promissory note and put it in his coat pocket, "Okay."

Sheng Youxia sat in front of the dressing mirror, having just taken a bath, with one hand having just applied neck cream when her mother-in-law's call came through.
She lightly tapped on the screen.
"Mom, it's so late, have you not gone to bed yet?"
"Xiaxia, the weather was nice today, did you go out?"
Sheng Youxia pressed her palm to her neck, "Yes, I went to see the fireworks at Nan Lake."
"Did Shilv go?"
After a pause of two or three seconds, Sheng Youxia's voice rose, her tone feigning casualness, "We went together, he accompanied me to watch the fireworks show."
On the other end, her mother-in-law seemed to be holding back something.
"Did you watch it on the cruise?"
"Not at all, we didn't manage to get cruise tickets."
The mother-in-law didn't know what to say, even so, her daughter-in-law was still covering for her good-for-nothing son.
He had actually abandoned his wife and went cruising with the vixen!
"Xiaxia, you should get some rest, come back for a meal on the weekend, Mom's prepared a lot of delicious food for you."
Sheng Youxia readily agreed, "Alright, thank you, Mom."
After hanging up the phone, the room returned to silence, and Sheng Youxia finished up her skincare routine before finally going to bed and turning off the lights.
When Fu Shilv returned, she heard it very clearly, the sound of footsteps entering from the door, the light from the balcony falling on the bed through the glass.
Soon, the man's figure approached the bedside, his shadow folding over half of Sheng Youxia's face.
Fu Shilv took off his jacket and took off his sweater as well.
The shirt was carelessly thrown onto the floor, he bent down to pull off the thin quilt covering Sheng Youxia.
She was flipped over by Fu Shilv, he pressed close to her back, his palm climbing upwards from her waistline.
His hands kneaded in front of her, with a very harsh force, their bodies tangled yet his hands remained unyielding.
Sheng Youxia was ensnared in a trap of pain and tingling, "Fu Shilv... what are you doing?"
His face pressed into the hollow of her neck, the skin felt chillingly cold as Fu Shilv intensified his grip, kneading twice before freeing one hand to push aside her hair hanging down her back.
He pressed against her earlobe, sucking gently on that tender flesh behind her ear, Sheng Youxia was sensitive, her body tensing like a tightly strung violin string.
"The person you were with tonight, was it Liang Nianwei?"
"And you?" Fu Shilv's intense desire was hardly conceable in the tumult, "Who was the man holding you?"
Their delicate and scorching breaths mingled, Fu Shilv's waist pressed tightly against her.
The beast hidden inside him was ready to spring.
Sheng Youxia didn't want to entangle in bed, "I was having a hypoglycemic episode at that time, I don't know that man, he was more or less saving me."
Fu Shilv's hand returned to the front of Sheng Youxia.
He was particularly obsessed with that spot, his palm couldn't fully cover it, able to be shaped into a soft hemisphere.
Sheng Youxia didn't want to sleep with him, yet the more she struggled, the more uncontrollable his rampant desires became.
Sheng Youxia went along with his hands, her faint moans spilling out.
"Don't you want to try something different?"
It was as if someone had poked Fu Shilv in the heart, an unbearable tickling.
"How so?"
Sheng Youxia turned her head to stare at him, "You first let go, I'll take the initiative."
Even in the darkness, Sheng Youxia could still see the intense desire in the man's eyes.
Fu Shilv got up from her body, Sheng Youxia got off the bed and took off her nightgown and underwear.
She cleared her throat, "I'm really thirsty."
She walked a short distance, picked up a bottle of milk, and unscrewed the cap.
Sheng Youxia drank half the bottle, one hand gently pulled open a drawer, and she took out the medicine Tang Hui had given her.
She mixed the powder into the milk, shaking it as she returned to the bedside.
