Chapter 99: Sister-in-Law Can’t Wait

An hour later.

Lin Meng returned to Taohua Village with a batch of roses and osmanthus flowers he had gotten from Zhang Yanmei.

He hadn’t revealed his connection to Zhang Peng. If Zhang Yanmei knew that the man she was sleeping with was actually her son’s classmate, she definitely wouldn’t be able to accept it. He decided it was best to just take things one step at a time.

Upon returning home, Lin Meng pushed the matter to the back of his mind and began refining the Beauty Liquid he had prepared earlier. After some meticulous adjustments, both the color and the scent of the Beauty Liquid became much more refined. It now looked like a glass of top-tier red wine, exuding a rich fragrance of roses and osmanthus. Looking at the finished product, Lin Meng smiled in complete satisfaction.

"Mengzi, I’m back!"

Just then, Wang Wei walked in panting heavily, the bamboo basket on his back piled high with medicinal herbs.

"Brother Wei, it’s only been a short while. How did you manage to gather so many herbs?" Lin Meng asked in surprise.

Wang Wei wiped a handful of sweat from his forehead and chuckled. "You’re paying me such a high salary, I can’t exactly slack off, can I? After you left, I’ve been searching for herbs on the mountain without taking a single minute’s rest."

"You’ve worked hard, Brother Wei." Lin Meng patted Wang Wei’s shoulder. His efficiency was even higher than his own.

"What are you saying? You pay my wages, so I work hard for you. That’s only right," Wang Wei said with a serious expression. "If I took advantage of our friendship to slack off, would I even deserve to be called your friend?"

Seeing Wang Wei’s dedication, Lin Meng felt touched. He couldn’t help but think of Ji Liyang again. So, he asked tentatively, "Brother Wei, what do you think of your wife?"

At the mention of this, Wang Wei sighed softly. "Mengzi, even though I complained to you about Liyang last time, I was just speaking out of anger. She’s actually a good person. The main reason she’s developed this temper is because of me!"

Lin Meng, of course, knew the reason he was referring to. He paused for a moment before asking, "Brother Wei, if... and I’m just saying if, one day you found out that Liyang did something to betray you, would you divorce her?"

"Mengzi, why are you suddenly asking this? Don’t tell me you’ve taken a fancy to her?" Wang Wei found it a bit strange but didn’t take it seriously, joking with a laugh, "If that’s the case, I’ll have a word with Liyang. You’re much more handsome than me, so maybe she’d like you too, haha!"

Dark lines formed on Lin Meng’s forehead. Why hadn’t he ever noticed before how oblivious Wang Wei could be?

"Brother Wei, I just heard people say that folks in the big cities are very open-minded, and beautiful women like Liyang are extremely popular. I’m just worried that after you two have been out working for a few years, she might have a change of heart," Lin Meng explained as tactfully as he could.

Wang Wei instantly fell silent. After a long while, he said with a complicated expression, "Mengzi, I’m not afraid of you laughing at me. If something like that really happened, it would be my fault. As long as Liyang is still willing to live with me, even if she secretly fooled around with another man, I wouldn’t hold it against her. Because I truly love her!"

Alright then! Lin Meng gave up completely.

Originally, he had wanted to test the waters with Wang Wei, thinking that if possible, he would tell him about Ji Liyang’s advances. But clearly, Wang Wei loved her deeply and felt immensely guilty towards her because of his infertility. Even if he knew the truth, he would only suffer in silence alone. Rather than doing that, it was better to keep him in the dark so he could live a bit more comfortably.

"Brother Wei, I was just speaking off the cuff. Please don’t take it to heart. I can tell that Liyang loves you too." Lin Meng coughed lightly, preparing to end the conversation.

"Sigh, the feelings are definitely there, but she also has a lot of complaints about me." Wang Wei’s mind returned to his depressing reality, and he sighed heavily. "Liyang hasn’t let me touch her in a long time. She always complains that my thing doesn’t work well.

"But you really can’t blame me for that. Mengzi, you have no idea. Not only does she have a great figure and huge breasts, but her private area is pink and tender. Not to mention, she’s ridiculously tight, and most importantly, she gets so incredibly wet.

"Never mind me—even if it were you, you probably wouldn’t last very long either!"

Lin Meng couldn’t hold it in and started coughing violently, choking on his own saliva. He thought, "Come on, Brother Wei, that’s your wife! How can you say something like that?" The explicit description had already painted a vivid picture in his mind.

"Mengzi, looking at your reaction, it’s obvious you’ve never been with a woman. Once you get a taste of what a woman is like, you’ll understand what I’m saying," Wang Wei said, flashing a lecherous grin at Lin Meng’s reaction.

Lin Meng didn’t dare to continue the conversation. Otherwise, Wang Wei would definitely spit out even more wild remarks. Wang Wei might think nothing of it, but Lin Meng simply couldn’t handle it. So, after accepting the herbs, Lin Meng sent Wang Wei home first.

He didn’t stay idle either. Using the freshly gathered herbs, he continued producing the Beauty Liquid. If he could finish the entire batch today, he could deliver it all to Zhu Yan tomorrow. Based on the previous price, making over two hundred thousand shouldn’t be a problem!

At six o’clock in the evening, Lin Meng finally finished the production. All that was left was to use the fresh flowers to improve the color and scent.

Right at that moment, his stepmom’s voice called out from outside, telling him it was time for dinner. Lin Meng had no choice but to set his work aside and head over to the main room to eat.

After dinner, Lin Meng prepared to return to his room to complete the final steps for the Beauty Liquid. However, Li Wanrong suddenly spoke up, instructing, "Xiaomeng, take a shower later. Make sure you wash yourself thoroughly. Then, come to my room at eight o’clock tonight. I’m going to try a different method to treat you today."

"I understand, Stepmom." Lin Meng was momentarily stunned, but he nodded in agreement.

Inwardly, though, he couldn’t help but mutter to himself. A different treatment method? And she specifically told him to wash thoroughly. Was his stepmom planning to do that kind of thing with him? At the thought, Lin Meng felt both expectant and anxious. He really wanted to have her, but the current timing obviously wasn’t the most appropriate.

At eight o’clock in the evening.

Lin Meng had completely finished the Beauty Liquid and washed himself thoroughly. Checking the time, he walked up to his stepmom’s door and knocked. "Stepmom, I’m here."

"Mhm, come in."

Hearing her response, Lin Meng pushed the door open and walked right in.

But when he saw the scene inside, he was instantly dumbfounded!

What the hell? Why was Ji Liyang here? And why was she dressed so provocatively?!

It was one thing that she was wearing the same nightgown from last time and going completely braless, but she had actually slipped a pair of black fishnet stockings over her long, beautiful legs. Her snow-white, smooth skin bulging slightly through the mesh of the fishnets created an intense visual impact. This outfit, combined with the heavy makeup she had specifically put on, vividly displayed a woman’s enchanting seductiveness to the absolute limit.

Seeing Lin Meng enter, Ji Liyang let out a coquettish giggle. She took the initiative to step forward and wrap her arms around his arm. "Mengzi, you’re finally here! I’ve been waiting so long I could barely stand it!"
