Su Chen's heart raced with turmoil. Though he had always harbored a special affection for his mother, and his desire to make her his woman had grown increasingly intense these past few days, it had remained just a fantasy.
Yet his mother's ambiguous reaction earlier, as if she were deliberately trying to seduce her own son, sent his heart pounding wildly while stirring a faint unease. He couldn't tell if it was merely her behavior or if she truly harbored such intentions.
Until he was certain, Su Chen dared not act rashly.
Perhaps I'm overthinking things! he told himself. Mom has always been lenient with me due to her doting nature, but she's never shown any special affection. And some of her boundaries are absolutely rigid!
