Chapter 82: Just Cooperate with Stepmom

After leaving Zhu Yan’s home, Zhao Lingshan didn’t take Lin Meng directly back to Taohua Village. Instead, she took him to buy a smartphone and open a bank account. She then transferred all the money from selling the Beauty Liquid to him. This was the first time Lin Meng had earned such a massive sum of money through his own abilities, and the excitement in his heart took a long time to settle.

"Xiaomeng, you’re quite capable now," Zhao Lingshan teased on the way back. "When you make a fortune in the future, you can’t forget about me, alright?"

"Sister Lingshan, don’t worry. My money is your money.

"As long as I have it, just tell me how much you need, and I’ll transfer it all to you," Lin Meng promised, patting his chest confidently.

After all, if Zhao Lingshan hadn’t helped him resolve the situation with Li Dabiao and introduced Zhu Yan to him, making this money wouldn’t have gone so smoothly. Such a massive favor couldn’t be repaid with just money.

"I’m not your wife, so why would I spend your money? Just hearing you say that is enough to satisfy me." Zhao Lingshan felt a warm glow in her heart. However, for some reason, a flash of helplessness and sorrow flickered in her eyes.

Back at Taohua Village, it was already five in the evening.

After chatting with Zhao Lingshan for a bit, Lin Meng jogged back home. He couldn’t wait to share the news of his big windfall with his stepmom.

Li Wanrong had just finished cooking dinner. Seeing Lin Meng rushing in, she couldn’t help but ask, "Xiaomeng, did something happen? Why are you in such a hurry?"

"Stepmom, we’ve struck it rich!" Lin Meng recounted how he made the money, though he only claimed that he had found the formula in the medical texts left behind by his father.

"Ninety thousand yuan? That’s so much!" Li Wanrong hadn’t expected Lin Meng to make such a massive sum from just one trip out. Her red lips parted in sheer astonishment.

In the past, she would have been ecstatic and proud that her son had finally made something of himself. But now, her heart was weighed down by heaviness and sorrow. She thought about how Xiaomeng was so capable of earning money now. If he hadn’t become impotent because of her, he could have found any kind of wife he wanted. She blamed herself entirely for ruining his lifelong happiness.

Li Wanrong felt so guilty she could barely breathe. Recalling the words of her doctor friend, she finally made a firm decision.

Stroking Lin Meng’s head, she revealed a loving smile. "Xiaomeng, you’re successful now. Let’s see who dares to look down on our family in the future. You’ve been busy all day, so you must be hungry. Hurry up and eat."

Lin Meng nodded and sat down at the dining table. After dinner, he took the initiative to clear the dishes.

Watching his busy figure, Li Wanrong bit her lip. "Xiaomeng, I’m going to take a shower first. When you’re done cleaning up, go wait in your room. Don’t go anywhere; I have something to tell you."

"Okay, Stepmom," Lin Meng casually agreed, not overthinking it.

After washing the dishes, Lin Meng returned to his room. Sitting on his bed, he pondered his next money-making plans.

The Beauty Liquid didn’t require too many medicinal ingredients, and the refinement process wasn’t complicated. However, relying solely on himself would ultimately limit his efficiency. If he could find helpers, he could significantly boost production efficiency and earn more money. But for this, he needed people he could thoroughly trust, and he didn’t have any good candidates at the moment.

Just as he was lost in thought, a flurry of footsteps sounded. His stepmom, fresh from the shower, walked in.

"Stepmom..." Lin Meng looked up out of habit to greet her, but before he could finish his sentence, his eyes locked onto her figure in the doorway, staring intently.

Fresh from the shower, her wet hair draped loosely over her shoulders. Her cheeks were flushed red, and a rich, alluring fragrance emanated from her body. She stood by the door, clad in a light pink silk nightgown that draped over her delicate curves like a mist. Thin spaghetti straps hung precariously from her smooth, fragrant shoulders, looking as though they might slip off at any moment.

The nightgown clung tightly to her body, perfectly outlining her slender, supple waist and full, round buttocks. She looked just like a perfectly ripe fruit. Looking further down, her long, shapely legs beneath the hem of the gown gleamed with a honeyed luster, practically radiating seduction.

More importantly, she was completely bare underneath. The two tender pink buds atop her supple peaks, as well as the dark shadow between her legs, were almost clearly visible through the thin fabric. Paired with her captivating gaze, her entire being exuded a bone-deep charm that made it impossible to suppress the surging tide of lust in one’s heart.

Lin Meng was utterly mesmerized. He had never expected his stepmom to dress so revealingly in front of him. A restless flame flared up uncontrollably from the depths of his heart, instantly igniting his entire body.

At this moment, she locked the bedroom door. Step by step, she walked up to Lin Meng.

Facing his scorching gaze, a touch of shyness colored Li Wanrong’s face. With a trembling voice, she asked, "Xiaomeng, do you think Stepmom looks pretty today?"

"Of course you’re pretty!" Lin Meng nodded vigorously.

Li Wanrong offered a faint smile and continued to ask, "Then tell me the truth, have you always liked Stepmom?"

Lin Meng’s heart trembled. With a dry mouth, he replied, "Stepmom, you’re so beautiful, and you treat me so well. I’ve long seen you as my own biological mother, so of course I like you!"

"No, I don’t mean that kind of liking." Li Wanrong shook her head, her beautiful eyes fixed intently on Lin Meng’s. "You don’t just feel familial affection for me. You want to do that kind of thing with me, and you even fantasize about me in your heart, don’t you?"

Having his innermost thoughts exposed, Lin Meng immediately felt a wave of panic. He was terrified that his stepmom would be disgusted by him and think his thoughts were too vulgar and filthy.

Just then, his stepmom suddenly parted her long, slender legs and straddled his thighs. Her soft, jade-like arms wrapped around his neck as her red lips exhaled sweet breath onto his face.

"Xiaomeng, don’t be afraid. Even if you think that way, Stepmom won’t blame you.

"You’re a man in the prime of your life, when your energy is at its absolute peak. It’s perfectly normal for you to crave women. Since the two of us spend day and night together, it couldn’t be more normal for you to use me as your fantasy.

"I asked a doctor about this. Your impotence was primarily caused by the fact that not only did I refuse to cooperate with you last time, but I even hit you. It left you with psychological trauma. If we want to cure it, I have to help you walk out of that shadow.

"So, Stepmom has thought it through. If you really want Stepmom, I am willing to give myself to you today."

BOOM!

His stepmom’s words sent massive waves crashing through Lin Meng’s heart. He never imagined that she would actually be willing to go this far for him. He felt an intense urge to pin her to the bed right then and there and fiercely enter her body.

Ultimately, however, he held himself back. Although doing so would achieve his immediate goal, his stepmom would undoubtedly assume she had cured him and would never do this sort of thing with him again. What Lin Meng truly wanted was to give her a lifetime of happiness. He had to endure this and wait until she genuinely fell in love with him.

"Stepmom, you can’t be blamed for this. You don’t have to do this," Lin Meng said, gulping heavily. "Besides, I was in the wrong before. I’ve already realized my mistake."

However, his consolation only made Li Wanrong feel even more guilty, solidifying the resolve in her heart.

"Xiaomeng, you don’t need to say anything else. Since you ended up like this because of me, I will definitely use my body to cure you.

"Tonight, just be a good boy and cooperate with Stepmom."

Li Wanrong took a deep breath, leaving no room for Lin Meng to say another word. She took the initiative to lean forward and press her lips against his...
