Urban Seduction: Housewives Club

Chapter 663: Mutual Teasing

As soon as Yan Ruyu sat down, Song Xuan couldnʼt help but ask, ”Ruyu, has something happened at home?”

There was no need for formalities between them. Their bond was strong. In the entire Song family, aside from Yan Ruyuʼs children, Song Xuan was the only one who genuinely cared for her.

The men harbored ulterior motives, while the women were consumed by envy. Conversely, when Song Xuan was forced into a marriage she didnʼt want, only Yan Ruyu and her children stood by her side.

”I havenʼt heard anything. You know I never get involved in these matters,” Yan Ruyu replied, her delicate brows furrowing slightly. This subtle gesture struck a chord in Ye Fei, who was watching her, making him feel a pang of heartache. He couldnʼt help but marvel at her innate allure—more captivating than even Shen Huiya, who had cultivated her charm through practice.

Song Xuan, well aware of Yan Ruyuʼs personality, hadnʼt held out much hope and thus wasnʼt disappointed. She turned to Ye Fei and said, ”It seems weʼll have to rely on your people.”

Ye Fei smiled gently. ”Donʼt worry. Theyʼre quite capable. Iʼm sure weʼll have news soon.”

Their exchange was casual, but it sent a ripple of surprise through Yan Ruyu. When her daughter had introduced Ye Fei, sheʼd simply described him as a skilled man sheʼd met in Wanghai.

Yan Ruyu had assumed it was just her daughterʼs usual whimsical admiration for someone with a bit of talent.

But now, hearing their conversation, she took a closer look at this otherwise ordinary yet strikingly handsome young man. The more she looked, the faster her heart raced.

Just as Yan Ruyuʼs innate charm had a magnetic pull on men, Ye Feiʼs cultivation of the Xuan Yang Art gave him an instinctive allure for women—especially those with an inherently yin constitution like her.

Much like how Ye Fei had been unable to take his eyes off Yan Ruyu earlier, she now found herself captivated by him. The more she looked, the faster her heart beat, and a peculiar fluttering stirred in her heart—a feeling she hadnʼt experienced since her youth, when sheʼd been deceived by Song Ciʼs father and fallen for him. After seeing through the true nature of men from powerful families and separating from him, sheʼd never felt this way again. Yet now, facing a boy the same age as her daughter, that feeling had resurfaced.

This sense of unease frightened Yan Ruyu, and she quickly looked away, not daring to meet his gaze. But his image seemed to have etched itself deep into her soul, impossible to shake.

Unaware of the profound effect his Xuan Yang Art had on her, Ye Fei didnʼt notice the strange glimmer in Yan Ruyuʼs eyes. Seeing the three women fall silent, he suggested with a smile, ”I havenʼt explored the capital yet. How about you all show me around?”

”Iʼll pass. You go ahead,” Yan Ruyu was the first to decline, not just because of the unsettling flutter in her heart but also due to her past experiences. Every time she went out, no matter how much she covered herself—hat, sunglasses, mask—she still attracted the attention of every man around, and she detested it.

Song Xuan smiled softly. ”Then Iʼll stay here and chat with Ruyu. Let Song Ci take you. Sheʼs always been a wild one and knows all the good spots.”

”Of course! Iʼve been to so many places, you couldnʼt finish exploring them in a month!” Song Ci didnʼt mind Song Xuanʼs comment. She seemed proud of it.

”Letʼs go, then,” Ye Fei said with a smile. His suggestion to go out wasnʼt really about sightseeing. Sitting here, his gaze kept drifting to Yan Ruyu. While looking at her was enjoyable, it wasnʼt appropriate, especially since heʼd just established a relationship with Song Xuan and was in front of Song Ci.

Yan Ruyu had driven here, so Ye Fei and Song Ci didnʼt need to hail a taxi. As soon as they got into the modest-looking car, Ye Fei caught a whiff of a unique fragrance—something heʼd never smelled before. It was pleasant yet oddly stirring, making his heart race and certain parts of him react.

”Thatʼs my momʼs natural scent. Never smelled it before, huh?” Song Ci said proudly. ”Itʼs one of a kind.”

Ye Fei had already guessed as much, marveling at how even her natural scent had such an effect. But seeing Song Ciʼs smug expression, he decided to tease her. ”Are you her biological daughter?”

”Of course I am,” Song Ci replied, puzzled by the question.

”I donʼt think so,” Ye Fei said with a mischievous grin. ”Look at her figure—itʼs amazing. How could she have a daughter whoʼs so flat you canʼt tell front from back without looking at her face?”

Though heʼd used this line the night before, it still angered Song Ci. Her eyes narrowed, and she gritted her teeth. ”Looks like youʼre asking for it. Iʼll drain you dry!” With that, she reached into Ye Feiʼs pants and grabbed him firmly, just like the night before.

”Wait, why is it hard already?” Song Ci noticed something was off the moment she touched him. Her eyes narrowed further, glaring at Ye Fei. ”Why did it get hard when we talked about my mom? Do you have some dirty thoughts about her?”

”Of course not!” Ye Fei quickly denied it, explaining, ”The scent in the car has a strong effect on men. Didnʼt you know that?”

Whether his explanation worked or not, the anger in Song Ciʼs eyes faded. Her gaze softened, and she sighed quietly. ”As long as youʼre strong enough, I wouldnʼt mind if you had thoughts about her.”

”What?” Ye Fei was taken aback. What kind of reasoning was this? Didnʼt her father still exist?

”From Xiao Fei and Lin Ling, I know youʼre someone who truly cares for your women. And Iʼve seen your strength these past two days,” Song Ci sighed again, her voice tinged with melancholy. ”My mom has had a hard life, and neither my brother nor I can protect her. If thereʼs a man whoʼs strong enough to protect her and genuinely loves her, we wouldnʼt oppose it.”

Ye Feiʼs heart stirred. He hadnʼt expected this usually brash girl to have such a sentimental side. He wanted to reassure her but felt it wasnʼt the right moment, so he kept his thoughts to himself, maintaining a calm exterior.

”Hey, shouldnʼt you let go now?” Seeing Song Ciʼs genuine sadness, Ye Fei quickly changed the subject.

True to her nature, Song Ci quickly shook off her melancholy. Her eyebrows arched as she retorted, ”What? Youʼre done and now youʼre trying to back out? Why didnʼt you tell me to let go last night?” She even moved her hand provocatively, just like the night before.

”Stop messing around. Iʼm driving!” Ye Fei kept one hand on the wheel and pulled Song Ciʼs hand out of his pants with the other. ”What do you mean ʼdoneʼ? You didnʼt even let me kiss you.”

”Kissing is for lovers. You and I are just master and disciple, got it?” Song Ci said matter-of-factly.

”Then why did you…” Ye Fei glanced down at the bulge in his pants, then at Song Ciʼs hands and mouth.

Song Ci glared at him. ”That was me playing with you. Donʼt get the wrong idea!” In her frustration, she reverted to her old, bold way of speaking.

”Then when I helped you last night, was that also just playing around?” Ye Fei teased with a smirk.

Recalling the sensations from the night before, Song Ciʼs cheeks flushed slightly, but she remained defiant. ”Fine, it was mutual teasing. Iʼve never planned on finding a man anyway. Having a master to mess around with is pretty good.”

”Alright, you win,” Ye Fei finally conceded, changing the subject again. ”Where are we heading first?”

Seeing Ye Fei yield once more, Song Ci felt a surge of triumph. She giggled for a while before announcing, ”Of course, itʼs the Capital Girlsʼ Club!”
