Li Yanyan's driver navigated the winding roads with practiced ease, their destination a familiar one β Sun Lixia's sprawling villa. As they pulled up to the imposing gates, Li Yanyan couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation coursing through her veins.
Within the villa's lavish confines, she found her son, Zhu Fengrui, in the company of a young woman β Zhang Meixui. The girl's eyes widened slightly at Li Yanyan's entrance, her expression a mix of shyness and apprehension.
"How long will it take you to stop being shy in front of me, little girl?" Li Yanyan inquired, her tone laced with a hint of amusement.
Zhang Meixui's mouth opened and closed, her cheeks flushing with a rosy hue as she struggled to find the words to respond. Zhu Fengrui stepped in, a fond smile playing upon his lips as he regarded his mother.
"Mom, don't scare her, okay?" he chided gently, his tone tinged with affection.
