[World 1] Chapter 17

　　The place where Chu Shuo was hit immediately swelled up.

　　He covered his face and looked at Shen Yan, frowning and saying with an unpleasant expression: "Who is he?"

　　Chu Shuo's first reaction was: Could it be that Shen Mo has another man?

　　Shen Mo knew from Chu Shuo's tone that he had misunderstood, and quickly explained, "He is my brother, Shen Yan."

　　Chu Shuo had heard Shen Mo say that she had a younger brother. But he didn't know what's wrong, he suddenly rushed out and punched him.

　　Shen Yan wanted to hit Chu Shuo, but was stopped by Shen Mo, "Shen Yan, what are you doing? Why are you hitting people?"

　　"What is his relationship with you?" Shen Yan glared at Shen Mo.

　　"I..." Shen Mo had never told him about Chu Shuo, and for a moment she didn't know how to explain it to Shen Yan.

　　Shen Mo had no choice but to say: "He is my friend."

　　"What kind of friends kiss each other standing on the side of the road?"

　　Shen Yan still had a glimmer of hope in his heart, hoping that Shen Mo didn't know that Chu Shuo was married, but when he looked down, he saw that Chu Shuo was still wearing a wedding ring on his ring finger.

　　Shen Yan looked even more angry.

　　Shen Mo didn't notice Chu Shuo's wedding ring. She thought, "Oh no! Shen Yan saw it just now." But then she thought, Shen Yan didn't know Chu Shuo was married, so it would be okay for her to just say he was her boyfriend.

　　"He…he's my boyfriend."

　　As soon as Shen Mo said this, Shen Yan became furious.

　　Still lying.

　　He never thought that Shen Mo would have an affair with a married man and become his mistress.

　　Shen Yan took a deep breath and pointed at Chu Shuo's wedding ring.

　　"Don't tell me you're married."

　　Shen Mo's body trembled slightly.

　　"Shen Mo! Are you doing this to our dead parents? If they knew that you...you..." Shen Yan couldn't say any more.

　　Shen Mo saw the chill in Shen Yan's eyes and she was a little scared.

　　She turned to Chu Shuo and said, "You go first."

　　Chu Shuo was no fool, and of course he understood the situation he was in.

　　It was Shen Yan who discovered that Shen Mo was with a married man. What could he say if he stayed? Should he fight with Shen Yan?

　　It was so embarrassing. The punch he received today was in vain.

　　"Will you be okay?" Chu Shuo looked at Shen Yan's excited expression and felt a little worried about Shen Mo.

　　Shen Yan forced a smile, "Yes, he is my brother, go ahead, I will contact you later."

　　Chu Shuo hesitated for a moment, but still got in the car.

　　After Chu Shuo left, Shen Mo and Shen Yan were still standing there.

　　Shen Yan said: "Such a man, Shen Mo, what on earth are you thinking? How could you do such a thing?"

　　Shen Mo could see that Shen Yan was very disappointed with her, but what else could she say now?

　　She was indeed Chu Shuo's lover.

　　At first, she was also nervous, but later she rarely felt guilty and ashamed. Until now, under Shen Yan's gaze, she suddenly had an ominous premonition in her heart.

　　This premonition came very suddenly and made her a little panicked.

　　There seemed to be something else in Shen Yan's eyes.

　　Shen Mo pulled Shen Yan's arm and said, "Shen Yan, listen to me..."

　　Shen Yan: "What else do you have to say? Are you going to tell me that you don't know that man has a wife?"

　　Shen Mo couldn't stand Shen Yan's attitude towards her. This was the first time Shen Yan treated her like this. "How do you talk to me like that? I'm your sister."

　　"It's because you are my sister... that I feel chilled. If you don't break up with that man, you are not my sister."

　　Whenever Shen Yan thought of Jiang Mu, his heart ached.

　　If Jiang Mu knew that the person her husband cheated with was his own sister, how would Jiang Mu look at him?

　　"I..." Shen Mo couldn't say that he would leave Chu Shuo.

　　Shen Yan smiled sarcastically. He was not laughing at Shen Mo, but at himself. He was laughing at his own naivety, thinking that he could make Shen Mo change with just one sentence. He also felt very disappointed with Shen Mo.

　　"I understand." Shen Yan turned and left.

　　"Shen Yan!" Shen Mo called out, but Shen Yan didn't even turn his head.

　　Shen Mo's face became paler and paler. She stared at the direction Shen Yan left for a long time before she turned back.

　　After returning, she sent many messages to Shen Yan to explain, but Shen Yan did not reply.

　　Instead, Chu Shuo sent a message to ask her how she was doing.

 .....

　　Shen Yan was absent-minded on the way back. He didn't know how to explain to Jiang Mu, nor did he know whether he should tell Jiang Mu that the person she was looking for was his biological sister.

　　As Shen Yan thought about it, he squatted down, holding his head in his hands, not knowing what to do.

　　He didn't reply to the message sent by Shen Mo, and he didn't dare to reply to the message sent by Jiang Mu.

　　He squatted downstairs and thought for a long time. He could only feel sorry for Jiang Mu. He couldn't tell Jiang Mu that the person who destroyed her family was his sister.

　　Shen Yan's eyes felt a little hot and he took a deep breath.

　　He heard his roommate calling him, "Shen Yan, what are you doing here? Why don't you go upstairs?"

　　Shen Yan didn't look up. "Alright, my feet are numb just now, so I've rest for a moment. You go up first."

　　Jiang Mu didn't wait for Shen Yan's reply, but actually guessed what had happened.

　　When she saw the wound on Chu Shuo's face, she became even more certain.

　　Jiang Mu was somewhat gloating, pretending to be surprised and said: "Hey, husband, what happened to your face?"

　　Chu Shuo blocked his face and said, "I accidentally fell."

　　"Fall? It doesn't look like that to me. It looks more like someone beat you up." Jiang Mu looked at Chu Shuo hypocritically, "It's all swollen, husband, you didn't really get beaten up, did you?"

　　"No..." How could Chu Shuo admit it?

　　"Husband, you haven't offended anyone, have you? Don't hide it from me, otherwise if you get beaten to death one day I won't know who to look for." Jiang Mu pulled Chu Shuo and said worriedly.

　　Perhaps because Jiang Mu's eyes were too sincere, Chu Shuo actually thought about this possibility.

　　Shen Mo's younger brother shouldn't be like that.

　　Chu Shuo: "No, honey, you think too much."

　　Jiang Mu: "I'm worried about you too."

　　"Okay, don't worry, I'm really fine. I'm tired. I'm going to take a shower." Chu Shuo turned around and went upstairs.

　　Jiang Mu looked at his back, curled the corners of her mouth and sneered, stupid man, Shen Yan really fought well.

　　Why didn't I beat you into a pig's head?

　　However, Shen Yan must be feeling bad right now, as he didn't even reply to her message.

　　Jiang Mu shrugged and went upstairs to Chu Ying's room.

　　As soon as she came back today, she discovered that Chu Ying seemed a little strange.

　　Jiang Mu knocked on the door, "Yingying, mommy is coming in."

　　Chu Ying didn't say anything. Jiang Mu waited for a moment and opened the door.

　　Chu Ying hid under the quilt, with a small bulge in her small body.

　　Jiang Mu smiled and said, "Where is my baby Yingying? Why can't I see her?"

　　Chu Ying moved, but still didn't come out of the quilt.

　　Jiang Mu walked to the bed, hugged her, and then lifted the quilt, "Mom found Yingying."

　　Who knew that when the quilt was lifted, Jiang Mu found Yingying hiding under the quilt and crying.

　　"Baby, what's wrong with you?" Jiang Mu was startled.

　　Chu Ying is usually well-behaved and cute, and this is the first time that Jiang Mu has seen her like this.

　　"Mom." Chu Ying said in a low voice.

　　"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Jiang Mu touched Chu Ying's head and helped her wipe away her tears.

　　Chu Ying lowered her head and said, "Mom, I'm sorry."

　　Jiang Mu asked in confusion, "What's wrong, baby?" Jiang Mu smiled, "How could Yingying be sorry to her mother? Yingying is so good, and mother likes Yingying very much."

　　"I'm hiding something from mom." Chu Ying's little face was red, with tears hanging in the corners of her eyes, she looked both pitiful and cute.

　　"What's the matter?" Jiang Mu smiled, a little confused.

　　"Yingying was afraid that if she told her mother, her mother would be very angry and sad."

　　Jiang Mu guessed something when she heard this, "Did Yingying find out something bad?"

　　Chu Ying nodded, looking very depressed.

　　Jiang Mu asked: "Yingying, do you want to tell your mother?"

　　Chu Ying hesitated for a moment and said, "I want to, but I'm afraid."

　　Jiang Mu encouraged in a low voice: "Don't be afraid, just say whatever you want to say."

　　Chu Ying thought about it and suddenly burst into tears, "When mom was not at home, I found dad and a sister kissing in the room. I heard from the children in the kindergarten that you can only kiss the person you like. Dad kissed someone else. Does dad not want us anymore? Dad is not a good dad anymore ... "

　　Jiang Mu felt bad seeing Chu Ying so sad.

　　She had originally thought about finding a good opportunity to have a good talk with Chu Ying, but she didn't expect that idiot Chu Shuo would actually let Chu Ying see him and Shen Mo together.

　　Although Chu Ying is young, she is very smart. She understands some things without adults explaining them clearly.

　　"Don't cry, baby." Jiang Mu patted Chu Ying's shoulder, "Even without daddy, you still have mommy. Mommy loves you the most. We don't want daddy anymore. Yingying, can you follow mommy?"

　　Chu Ying nodded and shook her head, "But ... but, I don't want to become a child without a father. The children in the kindergarten said that it is pitiful to be without a father."

　　Jiang Mu said, "No, Yingying won't be without a father forever. Mommy can conjure up a few fathers for Yingying and let other fathers protect Yingying, okay?"

　　"Is this possible?" Chu Ying blinked in surprise, and her tears stopped.

　　Jiang Mu said: "Sure, mom keeps her word. This dad is not good. He likes someone else. Let's change him..."

　　"But... can Dad change what he did wrong?"

　　Jiang Mu said seriously: "Some things cannot be undone once they are done wrong, and there is no chance to change them, do you understand?"

　　Chu Ying didn't quite understand, "I don't understand."

　　Jiang Mu thought about it and changed the way she said it, "What it means is that Daddy is dirty now, and Mommy dislikes him and doesn't want him anymore. She wants to change him. Will Yingying follow Mommy or Daddy?"

　　"Can it be washed clean if it's dirty?" Chu Ying asked.

　　Jiang Mu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "No, Yingying, do you like mom or dad more?"

　　Chu Ying hugged Jiang Mu tightly, "Yingying wants to protect her mother. Yingying wants her mother."

　　Jiang Mu: "Okay, Yingying is so good. Mommy will work hard and will not let Yingying be without a father. Yingying, don't tell anyone about this, and don't tell Daddy either. Let's keep it a secret, okay?"

　　Chu Ying nodded: "Okay."

　　…..

　　The next day, after Jiang Mu sent Chu Ying to kindergarten, she asked You Chenguang to come home.

　　She talked to You Chenguang last night and wanted to ask him for a favor today, so she asked him to come to her house.

　　You Chenguang took a special leave to come here.

　　Jiang Mu brought You Chenguang to the studio mysteriously.

　　"You asked me to help you. What is it? It's so mysterious."

　　Jiang Mu said: "I plan to confront Chu Shuo tonight and then move out of here. What do you think?"

　　You Chenguang was very happy to hear this, "Okay, have you collected all the evidence?"

　　Jiang Mu said: "Well, it's almost done. There's only one last step left. It can be done tonight."

　　You Chenguang: "You haven't told me what you want me to do yet."

　　Jiang Mu showed a shy expression: "I want to say that since I am moving out soon, I want to paint one last picture in this studio, and I want to paint you."

　　"Draw me?" You Chenguang was obviously surprised.

　　But Jiang Mu's shy look was so beautiful that You Chenguang was stunned.

　　Her rosy cheeks and innocent and shy eyes make her like a soft rabbit, making people want to hold her in their arms and knead her.

　　"Yes." Jiang Mu nodded.

　　"Why did you think of drawing me?" You Chenguang said with a smile.

　　Jiang Mu hesitated for a moment, pursed his lips and said, "Because you are handsome."

　　This is the truth. You Chenguang looks like an iceberg beauty, and you can tell that he exercises regularly, so he must have a great figure.

　　Jiang Mu thought about it and felt a little bit excited.

　　"Okay, then you draw. I'll sit here and draw for you?" You Chenguang thought this was not a difficult task.

　　Jiang Mu shook his head, "No, I want to paint a human body painting, you have to take off your clothes."

　　When she said this, her eyes were evasive, as if she didn't dare to face You Chenguang.

　　"Take off my clothes?"

　　You Chenguang looked stunned.

　　"Yes, it's the kind of art painting that you see in Europe, right? It's just a simple painting, without any other meaning. Believe me, I won't do anything to you." Jiang Mu explained eagerly.

　　Seeing her so anxious to explain, fearing that he would misunderstand, You Chenguang smiled instead.

　　Jiang Mu is so cute.

　　God knows, Jiang Mu was actually laughing in her heart, and was still imagining You Chenguang taking off his clothes in her mind.

　　In fact, after Jiang Mu had this idea last time, she designed a look for You Chenguang in his mind.

　　You Chenguang was sitting naked on the sofa with his chest puffed out and his head raised, looking out the window with an expressionless face. There was a sense of pride and a hint of melancholy on his face.

　　Thinking of this scene, Jiang Mu felt it was simply amazing.

　　That should be a nude painting of a melancholy beauty. It is completely different in style from Shen Yan's nude painting of a young boy, but both have their own beauty.

　　Jiang Mu even thought that she might be able to collect many paintings and create a series in the future.

　　Just thinking about it makes me feel fun and excited.

　　You Chenguang actually also felt it was very exciting, especially in this place.

　　You Chenguang had never experienced such an exciting thing before.

　　He didn't expect that Jiang Mu had such a side to him. It was really new.

　　Could it be that all artists have an unknown and shocking side?

　　"Don't tell me you've also painted for Chu Shuo?"

　　If so, You Chenguang would feel uncomfortable.

　　Jiang Mu said: "No, I just want to draw you now."

　　You Chenguang was pleased by this sentence.

　　"Okay, but are you sure you want me to take off all my clothes?" You Chenguang and Jiang Mu's relationship was still very simple. He was a little embarrassed to suddenly meet each other naked.

　　"Strip off first, then cover up ... there."

　　Jiang Mu spoke hesitantly, pretending to be embarrassed, lowering her eyes slightly, not daring to look directly at You Chenguang.

　　You Chenguang hesitated for a moment: "Okay, I'll listen to you."

　　Jiang Mu laughed secretly in her heart, but said seriously: "Then you start."

　　"Take it off here?" You Chenguang asked.

　　"Well, just here. I'll turn away and not look at you."

　　Jiang Mu continued with the same routine as last time.

　　You Chenguang didn't think much about it. He was not as naive as Shen Yan. They were already grown up, so there was nothing wrong with taking off clothes. He could just treat it as a beach. But facing Jiang Mu, he was afraid of some reaction he would have, which would be embarrassing.

　　Fortunately, Jiang Mu said he would cover it, so there is no need to worry.

　　So he nodded and started to take off his clothes.

　　"Wait, wait a minute, I'll turn around first." Jiang Mu called You Chenguang.

　　At the critical moment, Jiang Mu still has to maintain her green tea character, which is really a pity. It would be more exciting to watch him take off his clothes.

　　Alas, what a pity.

　　"Then don't turn around suddenly or look at me secretly." You Chenguang made a joke.

　　Jiang Mu glared at him: "I won't."

　　In fact, what she was thinking was: I want it too.

　　After she turned around, You Chenguang began to unbutton his shirt one by one.

　　Jiang Mu could even imagine You Chenguang revealing his sexy and muscular chest.

　　"I took off my shirt." Not only did You Chen take off his shirt, he also reported the situation, which made Jiang Mu really want to turn back.

　　"Okay." Jiang Mu said softly.

　　"Then I'll start taking off my pants now."

　　Jiang Mu: " … "

　　"You ... you don't have to tell me."
