Chapter 154: Weird Husband And Wife
Luis lit a cigarette, put his feet up on the table carelessly, and said with a lewd smile, "Even before she got pregnant, Lily couldn't satisfy me. Now, relying just on her mouth definitely isn't enough."
"If you tell Lily that you've introduced me a lover, she might even thank you. She wouldn't have to work so hard sucking my cock every night."
"She... she's insane."
Nancy Yao instantly lost all her nerve. She had originally thought about threatening to tell on him or something, but now, seeing the principal involved acting like this, she was utterly speechless.
Nancy had seen Rococo two or three times. She was indeed stunningly beautiful, pure and ethereal like a fairy. Frankly, with those looks, she could easily have been a flight attendant or gone to arts school.
This silly girl, how could you introduce Rococo? What if she ends up stealing your husband's soul?
Thinking this, Nancy even felt a little guilty, because the Chloe Lin she had introduced was also a top-tier married beauty. To think that in Anglo Jiang's eyes, her looks could rival Nancy's own said a lot.
The key was the married woman status, which might even be a plus. The image of milk spraying out as soon as she was fucked seemed incredibly lewd and erotic just thinking about it now.
In Luis's eyes, his beloved wife Lily was the charming and moving Suzuki Airi; just looking at her face could get him hard.
But in the eyes of others, especially the Wood family matriarch and her daughter, Lily was still that plain, unremarkable girl who dragged down the family's overall appearance, the bottom-of-the-barrel ugly duckling.
So Nancy felt furious at her sister's lack of urgency. How could this little sister have no sense of crisis and dare to do such a reckless thing?
If it was just for fun, that would be one thing, but if her husband really got seduced away, she'd have nowhere to cry.
Their mother-daughter nighttime talks were private, and she, like her mother, had started to worry, feeling that her sister was no longer a match for this brother-in-law.
Money was one thing, but mainly Luis handled himself very well. Plus, he'd gained a bit of charm, started to become handsome, and the attribute points increased his physical fitness, making his figure very good too.
From every angle, they seemed mismatched. Her sister was purely marrying up.
"Alright, big sister, I have some things I need to attend to."
Luis stood up, stretched lazily, and was about to leave. Even though he was alone with his sister-in-law now, with her current favorability meter at only 55 percent, he better not expect anything to happen.
"Are you going to find that slutty fox?"
Nancy grabbed Luis's hand and asked again.
So what if I am? None of your business...
Luis was growing impatient. He cursed inwardly but didn't voice it, after all, he still needed to raise her favorability and complete the task.
Controlling himself and forcing patience, Luis smiled and said, "Big sister, I need to go see Mother. There's something else I need to handle."
"I'm coming with you!"
Nancy seemed not to believe him. Now it was as if she was the one catching someone in the act. She followed Luis to the teahouse.
Pushing open the private room door, Mother-in-law Ruth showed no unnatural shyness this time. Yana, who had just returned from the provincial capital, gave a seductive smile.
"Mother, after you finish playing cards, let's go to the sales office together."
Seeing he still had about half an hour, Luis simply sat down to wait.
"Okay!"
Ruth agreed without even asking what it was about. Nowadays, she was completely obedient to her son-in-law.
"Wood family son-in-law, your mother's birthday is in a few days. How are you children planning to arrange it?"
The agent, Aunt Kiara, asked with a chuckle.
In previous years, it was just her group of old sisters getting together for a meal. Don't let these bitches fool you; when they got together, each one was a shrew with a foul mouth, but their bond was surprisingly strong.
They traveled together, ate together, even caught adulterers together. The camaraderie among these old sisters who'd lived in the same area for years was ironclad.
Yana Xu laughed and said, "A meal, then karaoke. What else can we arrange? Take you skydiving, would you dare to go?"
"Nonsense!"
Another familiar-faced shrew, whose name she couldn't recall, said, "It depends on where the meal is. Gotta find a classy place, can't be some roadside stall."
Perhaps because of her past involvement with Luis, Yana Xu laughed and scolded, "Oh, come on, you gossips, don't tell me you actually want to eat at the Yilton Residence?"
"You're like wild boars trying to eat fine grain!!"
Aunt Kiara said with a sarcastic tone, "Last month for Ah Fen's birthday, her kids booked the Yilton Residence. She bragged that the food was just so-so, nothing expensive, and it still cost over ten thousand. Over ten thousand for one table."
"Everyone knows. I was playing cards with her just yesterday. That woman, her daughter and son bought her a gold necklace and ring. She came out dressed up like a Christmas tree."
"Sister Yu, your standard can't be lower than hers. No matter what, we can't let that woman show us up!"
The speaker might have been careless, but the listener took note.
Yilton Residence was a private manor restaurant next to the Ocean Hotel, overlooking the sea. It specialized in high-end seafood in a garden setting, famously expensive in Hailton City.
Back when Ruth was having her birthday, Leah Yao, still naively hoping her parents would reconcile, had specifically called Arthur Yao. But Arthur Yao just dismissed it lightly, saying she wasn't that old, what was the point of making a fuss about a birthday.
Leah, upset, went and told her mother, only to get scolded by Ruth for meddling in other people's business.
In previous years, Ruth would just have a meal with this bunch of gossips and then go sing karaoke.
Not only did Luis have no interest in such gossipy gatherings, even the Wood sisters didn't like going.
Luis had a sudden idea. "Mother, how about we book the Yilton Residence?"
"Mother isn't that old. A simple meal is fine," Ruth declined with naturalness, wanting to maintain a senior's demeanor.
Luis immediately said, "Mother, we'll handle the arrangements. You just think about who you want to invite."
Nancy, always somewhat vain, chimed in supportively, "Exactly, your son-in-law and daughter will take care of it."
"Oh, you young people decide then!"
Ruth's tone was feigning helplessness, but her mouth was already stretched into a wide grin, making the other three women roll their eyes.
After finishing their card game, they went with the Wood mother and daughter to the sales office. The first phase of City Center Gardens was resettlement housing. The underground first floor was a public parking lot, which was quite chaotic.
But the underground second floor was a private parking lot with dedicated management. Not many residents of the resettlement buildings owned cars, generally preferring to park on side streets rather than buy parking spaces. So, there were still a few of the more expensive prime spots left unsold.
"Son-in-law, are you buying a parking space?" Ruth asked in surprise.
Luis said matter-of-factly, "Mother, if I park the car outside and get a ticket, it's 20 dollars. If someone scratches it, there's nowhere to complain."
"Besides, buying a parking space is an investment. It's usable and can appreciate. You don't have to search for a spot every time you come home, right?"
The private garage didn't allow outside vehicles and wasn't for rent, giving it a particularly exclusive vibe. Most importantly, the elevator access was much more convenient.
Luis had his eye on two adjacent parking spaces next to the elevator closest to home. The price wasn't too bad now. He paid without hesitation, putting one in the name of each mother and daughter.
Once the invoice was issued, they just waited for the property deed. Nancy first registered the second-hand Nissan and parked it in the underground garage.
As for that Cayenne, it was a birthday gift, a surprise that still needed to be kept secret for now.
Suddenly having money, Luis felt a bit unsure how to spend it.
Watching her brother-in-law spend so lavishly, Nancy fell into thoughtful silence.
Lily had always maintained good daily habits. Since she had work on Monday, by nine thirty, she had already showered, was lying in bed scrolling through her phone, and chatting with Rococo.
After Luis entered the room, she quickly became affectionate, came over with a playful laugh, took the phone, and said, "Look, Coco has a very good impression of you."
Luis glanced at the chat history. It contained some ordinary work-related talk, mixed with the kind of topics only close girlfriends would discuss.
"Sister Lily, your Brother is truly so good to you!"
"After the dormitory was set up, you should have seen how stunned everyone was."
"Even if a pregnant woman's status rises, there aren't many men who dote on their wives like your Brother does. I really envy you."
After reading it, Luis smiled gently and said, "Wife, at this rate, by the time you finish your postpartum confinement, I still won't have gotten my hands on her, right."
"But I have to take it slow. I found out she's an inexperienced virgin."
When Lily said this, she seemed a bit hesitant, and continued, "I can't possibly tell her, 'I'm pregnant, my husband is really pent up, we're all good sisters, so let my husband fuck you.'"
