Chapter 1

"대뱌오, 천천히 가!"

차나무 숲 아래, 안얼후와 형수 위란이 중요한 단계로 들어가려는 순간.

갑자기 들려온 소리에 꿈에서 깨어났다.

화가 난 안얼후는 일어나 보니, 나무 뒤에서 그는 즉시 충격을 받았다!

젠장할 마을 이장 안다뱌오가 회계사 안민의 아내를 범하고 있었다. 안민은 그의 충실한 조수인데, 친구의 아내라니, 이렇게 해도 되는 건가? 양심이 있는 건가?

곧, 덤불 속에서 분노의 외침 후 짧은 숨소리가 들렸고, 그 다음 안다뱌오의 낮은 웃음소리가 들렸다:

"추메이, 역시 네가 더 자극적이야. 시우 어머니보다 훨씬 단단해. 오늘은 시간이 좀 짧았는데, 다음에는 도시에 가서 방을 잡고 제대로 즐기자." 안다뱌오가 음흉하게 웃으며 말했다.

"나쁜 놈! 너희 남자들은 항상 우리 여자들을 갖고 놀지. 다뱌오, 우리 지금 가면 안 될까? 난 더 원해, 아까는 만족스럽지 않았어. 어차피 안민은 회의 때문에 반나절이나 하루 종일 돌아오지 않을 거고, 시우 어머니도 없어. 오늘은 좋은 기회야!"

"안 돼, 시우에게 점심을 집에서 먹겠다고 했어. 다음에 하자! 이렇게 하자, 모레 내가 읍내에 회의 가야 하는데, 그때 너는 안민에게 읍내에 물건을 사러 간다거나, 딸 안스칭과 안스위를 보러 간다고 하고, 그러면 우리가 방을 잡을 수 있어. 어때?"

"좋아, 그때 날 속이지 말고." 추메이가 애교 있게 말했다.

"걱정 마! 내가 네가 안 올까 봐 더 걱정이야! 이제 각자 집으로 돌아가자. 너는 집에 가서 씻어, 안민 형제가 돌아와서 네가 나와 있었던 것을 알아채지 못하게. 그러면 그가 나와 싸울 텐데, 헤헤."

"그는 한 달에 두세 번도 안 해, 괜찮아. 설령 우리 사이를 알게 되더라도, 최악의 경우 시우 어머니와 그가 몇 번 하게 하면 돼! 그러면 서로 상쇄되고, 그의 마음도 균형을 찾을 거야."

"하하, 너 참 관대하구나! 하지만 난 그렇게 관대하지 않아. 내가 그의 아내를 쓰는 건 괜찮지만, 그는 내 아내를 만질 수 없어. 안다뱌오의 여자는 교환하지 않아!" 안다뱌오가 득의양양하게 말했다.

그 순간, 발소리가 안얼후 쪽으로 다가왔다.

안얼후는 급히 숨었고, 마을 이장 안다뱌오가 안민의 아내 추메이를 팔에 끼고 차나무 숲에서 나오는 것을 보았다. 이 불륜 커플은 자신들의 일이 이미 그에게 발각되었다는 것을 꿈에도 몰랐다.

추메이가 탄탄한 엉덩이를 흔들며 안다뱌오와 함께 차나무 숲을 떠나는 것을 보며, 안얼후는 침을 흘렸다.

그의 기억 속에서 안민의 아내 추메이는 매우 정숙한 여자였는데, 이런 면이 있을 줄은 몰랐다.

혹시 여자들은 남자와 함께 있을 때만 진정한 모습을 보여주는 것일까? 그렇게 이해한다면, 형수 위란은 어떨까? 그녀는 정말로 그렇게 차갑고 오만한 여자일까? 아니면 다른 사람들 앞에서만 그렇게 행동하는 것일까?

생각하면서, 안얼후는 시험해보고 싶은 충동을 억누를 수 없었다.

결국, 형 안다룽은 이미 죽었고, 그는 형수를 몇 년 동안 몰래 사랑해왔으니, 마침내 기회가 생긴 것이다.

그러나 예상치 못한 일이 일어났다.

집에 돌아온 안얼후는 시어머니의 말에 당황했다.

뭐라고? 곧 과부 샹메이와 혼인신고를 한다고?

안얼후는 시어머니가 이렇게 빨리 그의 결혼을 정해버릴 줄 몰랐다.

그는 샹메이를 두 번도 채 만나지 않았다.

무의식적으로, 그는 시어머니 옆에 앉아 있는 과부 샹메이를 바라보았다.

"Will you continue to disobey me?" he asks, his gaze cool and hard.
"Yes,"
He exhales, raises his hand, and brings it down to slap my naked as again... harder than before. I gasp at the impact. It hurts, but it is so hot, and sexy.
"Will you do it again?"
"No,"
"No, what?"
"No, Sir,"
"Best girl," he brings his lips to kiss my behind while he caresses it softly.
"Now, I'm going to fck you," He sits me on his lap in a straddling position. We lock gazes. His long fingers find their way to my entrance and insert them.

All of a sudden there was a growl that ripped through the room and the band stopped playing and I heard something smash. Like it was a wooden chair or something.
Everyone looked in that direction and there was a man standing there that I had never noticed before. He would have been in his early 20's, brown hair to his shoulders, a brown goatee, 6-foot 6 at least and very defined muscles that were now tense as his intense gaze was staring directly at me and Mason.
But I didn't know who he was. I was frozen in the spot and this man was just staring at us with pure hatred in his eyes. But then I realized that the hatred was for Mason. Not me.
"Mine." He demanded.
