Chen Anwen also took a seat beside her mother-in-law and looked around. The hospital was much more crowded now compared to the last time she visited. Based on their clothing, she could differentiate between villagers and town dwellers.
While she was looking around, a young man beside her suddenly asked, "Sister-in-law, are you here to visit your relatives?"
Hearing this, Chen Anwen turned and replied with a smile, "My second sister-in-law is going into labor, and we came to take care of her."
When the young man heard this, he let out a sigh and said, "Sister-in-law, you are so kind."
"This is something I should do as my sister-in-law’s family," Chen Anwen replied modestly.
The young man observed her clothes. Though she was wearing old clothes with patches, they were clean, and she was tidy. Her hair was styled into a bun and covered with a cloth, as was customary for married women.
Even with a boring hairstyle and old clothes, her beauty was still evident. Without using any powder or cream, her fair skin had a natural tint of blush on her cheeks. Her eyes were gentle and warm.
When he looked into her eyes, he couldn’t help but envy her husband. With her soft-spoken demeanor, beautiful face, and lovely figure, what man could remain unmoved?
If he could marry such a woman, he wouldn’t have to make excuses not to go home. He has a rude, ugly, and stupid wife at home, and he can’t help but compare the two.
His eyes rested on her chest, wondering if it was as soft as it looked. He licked his lips, and his eyes were filled with lust as his mind wandered to the yellow area.
Chen Anwen noticed the young man’s stare, and her eyes turned cold. It was one thing to have a polite conversation while waiting, but it was another for him to blatantly stare at her like this.
Just as she hesitated about whether to remind him, she heard her mother-in-law’s voice. freewёbnoνel.com
"Nephew, can you stop staring at my daughter-in-law with your lustful gaze? I know my daughter-in-law is young and beautiful, but it’s not right for you to stare at another man’s wife like that. If you continue staring like that, I will report you for hooliganism."
The moment the young man heard Mother Lu’s words, he snapped back to reality. By then, people around them were already staring at him with meaningful gazes.
Feeling embarrassed, he quickly said, "Auntie, please be careful with your words. When did I stare at your daughter-in-law? I was just having a casual and polite conversation to pass the time."
Fearing that he would be reported, he quickly stood up and walked away.
As he left, he muttered, "Acting so demure, but who knows if she deliberately seduces men? Just looking at her face and body, I can tell she is not someone with good behavior."
When everyone heard his words, they frowned and looked down on him. Most of them had seen him initiate the conversation and stare at the woman while she did nothing.
Now that he had been warned by her mother-in-law, he tried to shift the blame onto her. Just how disgusting could he be?
