Chapter 348: She is Guan Peishan's Woman

~13 min read 2,469 words

My aunt coming to my new home was a big deal. My aunt had always considered herself the head of the family in front of me, and since the head of the family was coming to inspect, I naturally had to receive her with full effort.

Standing in the middle of the living room, I scanned the whole house. The living room was large, and a floor-standing plasma TV was placed against the opposite wall. This was a very high-end configuration for a Chunshan County household.

There was actually a wine cabinet on the east wall, displaying a few bottles of wine, both white and red. Looking at the packaging, the price shouldn't be cheap. There was an entryway at the door, and a built-in shoe cabinet next to it. I opened it and saw a few pairs of slippers inside. These were all arranged by the government for me, and I hadn't spent a penny. Last night when I got home, I didn't change into slippers, so under the light, my footprints were still faintly left on the floor.

I found a brand-new mop in the bathroom, preparing to mop the floor clean; I couldn't let my aunt pick on me.

For six years in Suxi Town, I hadn't mopped the floor. Suxi had cement floors, so there was no need to mop. At home, I had always lived a life of being fed and clothed by others, so I hadn't done such chores. Therefore, holding the mop in my hand, I suddenly became fearful.

Thinking of how others mopped the floor, I turned on the faucet, let the water wet the mop, and walked toward the living room with the dripping mop, leaving a trail of water behind me.

When I mopped the floor, not only did it not clean the faint marks on the floor, but it seemed to tear a hole in the floor. I was unwilling and dragged it a few more times, and the scene in front of me suddenly became chaotic and unbearable to look at.

My heart became anxious, and I threw the mop on the ground, turning to knock on Li Lian's door.

Li Lian saw my exasperated look, suppressed a smile, picked up the mop from the ground, walked to the bathroom, and beckoned me to come over.

I stood at the door, looking at her suspiciously.

Li Lian smiled and said, "You have to wring out the water before mopping. County Magistrate Chen, you haven't done housework, have you?"

I shook my head, dejected.

"It's too much trouble to do it like that," I said. "Thank you!"

"Why be so polite with your sister-in-law?" Li Lian said sternly. "Men shouldn't do housework anyway. County Magistrate Chen, if you want your home to be clean and look like a home, you need a woman."

"A woman?" I didn't react for a moment.

"Yes, a woman! That is, a wife," Li Lian laughed happily, throwing herself onto the sofa, exposing her two flawless, white thighs to my eyes without any restraint.

I turned my face away to avoid looking at her. Suddenly, I remembered my aunt didn't know where I lived, so I hurriedly took out my phone to call.

The call went through, and it was still Xiao Mi who answered, saying angrily, "What's the rush? We're coming."

I laughed, "Who provoked our Xiao Mi, having such a big temper?"

Xiao Mi answered me sarcastically, "Besides you, who else could it be?"

I was baffled. When did I offend her?

"You're the one calling, not me calling you," Xiao Mi said. "Are you looking for me, or the Chairman?"

I smiled and said, "It's the same. I just wanted to ask, do you know the place?"

"You're such a big cadre; finding where you live shouldn't be a difficult thing, right?" Xiao Mi mocked me. "Don't worry, we won't get lost."

After hanging up, I heard the sound of a car downstairs.

Li Lian got up from the sofa and asked me, "Do you have guests coming?"

I nodded and took out a cigarette to light, saying, "My aunt is coming to see me."

Li Lian heard this, hurriedly got up from the sofa, straightened her pajamas, and said, "I'll go back first, I won't disturb you."

She hurried back to her own place. I wanted to say thank you, but she had already slammed the door shut. It seemed my aunt's arrival made her afraid to face her.

I lived in a walk-up building. In Chunshan County, except for the buildings newly developed by Boss Liang, they were all walk-up buildings.

A burst of clattering sounds of heels hitting the ground came up floor by floor. I poked my head out and saw my aunt coming up gracefully, followed by Xiao Mi, who was holding something, her face flushed red.

Seeing me, she shouted, "County Magistrate Chen, come and help."

I had no choice but to go down and take a heavy bag from her hand. Weighing it, it felt very heavy, so I asked suspiciously, "What good stuff is this?"

"Ask our Chairman." Xiao Mi gave me a white look, lowering her head to look at her hand, which was flushed red from the strain.

My aunt was holding a small bag, standing at the door and looking inside.

I took out slippers for her to change into and let her sit on the sofa.

Xiao Mi didn't enter the room, standing at the door and saying to my aunt, "Chairman, I'll go back first."

My aunt smiled slightly and said, "Hmm, drive the car back. Work overtime tonight and finish the report. I'll let Xiao Feng send me back later."

I wanted to keep her, but Xiao Mi said irritably, "Forget it, I have work to do. I'll come to find you, big County Magistrate, to report on work another day."

Once Xiao Mi left, my aunt's demeanor changed, from a woman who didn't smile to a tender little woman.

She kicked off her slippers, put her feet on the sofa, rubbed her ankles, and shouted, "It hurts me to death."

My aunt wore high heels, which was torture for her, as she rarely wore them, especially walking upstairs.

After rubbing for a while, she looked up at me and said, "Why are you standing there like a fool? Can't you pour a glass of water?"

I then remembered that my kitchen was cold and fireless, so where would I have water for her to drink?

I scratched my head, smiled helplessly, and said, "I haven't cooked yet."

My aunt ignored my words, but sniffed on the sofa, then looked into my eyes and said, "Has a woman been to your house?"

I shook my head and denied it, feeling guilty and about to blush.

My aunt smiled faintly and said, "You still think you can fool me? Little brat. I can smell the perfume and know who has been here."

I was shocked. When did my aunt have this superpower? Was she bluffing me?

"The one across the street, right?" My aunt looked at me with a half-smile.

I had no choice but to nod and admit it.

"I knew it was her," my aunt sneered, warning me, "Xiao Feng, you can provoke anyone, but not her."

I was even more curious and asked, "Who is she? Why can't I provoke her?"

"Nothing. Just a woman's intuition. If you provoke her, no one can save you," my aunt said sternly. "Xiao Feng, you could be a philanderer in the past, but now you are a County Magistrate. There are so many people watching you behind your back. In this world, there are no walls that don't leak wind. Do you understand?"

I laughed, "Don't worry, with my aunt here, I'm not afraid even if the sky falls."

My aunt sighed and said, "You, you're almost thirty, you should grow up. Now that you're a County Magistrate, many women will come to throw themselves at you. As a cadre, issues of conduct are very taboo."

I didn't know what else my aunt wanted to say, so I hurriedly stopped her and said, "I'll go boil water for you."

"No need, I brought you two boxes of milk; drink one in the morning and one at night before bed," my aunt pointed to the heavy bag on the ground and said, "Take care of your health."

I opened the box, took out one, and handed it to my aunt.

My aunt didn't take it, lowering her head to rub her ankles.

I had no choice but to take out a straw, insert it, and hand it to her mouth for her to suck.

"Go turn on the air conditioner; it's cold in your room," my aunt took a sip of milk, holding it in her mouth without swallowing.

I sat down next to her and said, "Turning on the air conditioner in winter is bad for the skin. I'm afraid my aunt's naturally beautiful skin will turn into an old woman's."

My aunt turned her face and smiled sweetly, saying, "Smooth talker."

I reached out and hugged her, saying earnestly, "Heaven and earth are my witness, I'm speaking from the heart."

My aunt was hugged by me, and her body softened, almost collapsing on me.

She slowly swallowed the milk and opened her lips to me again, signaling me to hand her the milk straw.

I didn't give it to her, took a sip myself, and leaned toward her with my mouth puffed out. My aunt hurriedly avoided my mouth, reached out to pat my chest, and said, "What do you want to do?"

I laughed wickedly, hugged my aunt, and stared at her.

My aunt avoided my eyes, lowering her head, looking shy and cute, just like a little girl.

I swallowed the milk and said, "I'm feeding you."

My aunt twisted me lightly and said, "I don't want you to feed me."

I laughed, "I want to feed you. When I was young, didn't you feed me too?"

My aunt's face turned red, looking like a beautiful peach blossom. She whispered, "How old were you then?"

"Yes, I was young then and didn't know how to show filial piety to you," I said, took another sip, and handed it straight to my aunt's mouth.

My aunt helplessly opened her lips, extended the tip of her tongue to touch my lips lightly, then retracted it, and crawled on the sofa, laughing happily.

I wanted to continue, but my aunt pushed me away and said sternly, "Xiao Feng, stop messing around. Sit down, I have a few big things to tell you."

My aunt rarely spoke to me in this tone, so I paused, swallowed the milk in my mouth, and obediently put my hands on my knees, sitting upright and waiting for her to speak.

"You are a County Magistrate now, you have to grasp some things well," my aunt reached out to straighten my clothes and said softly, "You are alone now, and no one takes care of your life. This is not conducive to work. I think, you're not young anymore, you should have a home."

I nodded without speaking.

"Huang Weiwei's mother has chatted with me a few times, hoping you two will be together soon, which would fulfill their wish as parents. What do you think about this?"

"I don't want to get married yet," I said bluntly.

"Why?"

"No reason. Aunt, look, my career has just started. If I'm busy getting married and having children now, what will the organization think of me?" I racked my brains to find this reason that wasn't a reason.

"Career and family are not contradictory!" My aunt's attitude was very firm: "If you get married, everyone will be at ease."

"If I don't get married, you won't be at ease?" I asked strangely.

"Yes!" My aunt put her feet down and put them into her slippers: "If you don't get married, your mother, me, and Huang Weiwei's mother will not be at ease."

"Absurd!" I became indignant.

"Listen!" My aunt said softly: "If you get married and have a home, wouldn't it be better!"

"I really don't want to get married," I said truthfully, looking at my aunt with eager eyes. Every time I encountered a problem, she helped me solve it, but now it was her turn to pressure me.

"I'll give you three days to consider! Also, I'll tell you that Huang Weiwei's family has prepared all the wedding rooms you need for your marriage, just waiting for you two newlyweds to move in. Three days, tell me when you've thought it through," my aunt took the milk from my hand and took a deep sip: "When you've thought it through, get married after the Spring Festival."

What was this? Forced marriage? It was like a bolt from the blue.

Huang Weiwei had never mentioned a specific wedding date to me, although I knew she really wanted a home.

My aunt saw my foolish look and said painfully, "Xiao Feng, actually I don't want to force you either. But I see that your relationship with Weiwei is good, and you two are a good match. If you get married, everyone will be a family, and any problems will be easy to talk about."

My aunt's words contained another hidden difficulty.

I took the milk from my aunt's hand and took a deep sip.

"There's one more thing I have to warn you: you are not allowed to associate with Lin Xiaoxi from the TV station!" My aunt's tone was very stern, making me stunned.

"She is Guan Peishan's woman!" My aunt explained my confusion: "Someone told me about you treating guests at the Huihuang Hotel tonight."

I suddenly understood. No wonder my aunt's phone rang when I just got home. It was as if she had installed a pair of eyes behind my back, and every move I made was under her eyelids, making me shudder. ===== CHAPTER 349 =====

I took the milk from my aunt's hand and took a deep sip.

"There is one more thing I must warn you about: you are not allowed to associate with Lin Xiaoxi from the television station!" My aunt's tone was very stern, leaving me stunned for a moment.

"She is Guan Peishan's woman!" My aunt added an explanation to my confusion: "Someone told me about you hosting guests at the Huihuang Hotel tonight."

I understood immediately; no wonder my aunt's phone call came just as I had arrived home. It was as if she had installed a pair of eyes behind my back, and my every move was under her watchful gaze. I couldn't help but feel a chill run down my spine.
