Married to the Protagonist

Her fair and slender fingers subconsciously bent back and forth, back and forth, while she was muttering about something on her lips. After this cycle repeated several types, she suddenly widened her eyes in disbelief.

She wasn’t always on time, but she wasn’t so unpunctual either. It doesn’t seem like her period came to visit this month.

“…”

Usually, it comes either in the middle of the month or a little after that.

By the end of the month, it must have passed already.

The more she thought about it, the more shocked she was.

Chen Jinyao sucked in a breath of cold air and forced herself to calm down. She still had suspicions that it may just be a coincidence. The Goddess of Mercy can’t be this productive, right?

As her mind was running with wild thoughts, she suddenly realized she hadn’t even prayed for children as Yan Cheng expected her to when she went for the prayers.

She didn’t even know it for sure yet, so she might just be scaring herself.

Even so, Chen Jinyao started to be careful at everything, and she also wanted to find someone she could talk to. The first person who came to her mind was not Chen Jinlin who was right there by her side, but Yan Cheng who was far away on the other side.

And so, she came back.

She didn’t even care whether any problems would arise from her leaving her younger sister with her boyfriend together over at Hangzhou and came back early.

It was sudden, so sudden that Chen Jinlin asked with a dumbfounded look on her face, “Sis, if you go, aren’t you worried that Luo Xiao will have bad intentions and run into my room in the middle of the night?”

The corner of Luo Xiao’s eyes twitched. “…”

Chen Jinyao laughed. “He’s a nice young man, I can trust him. Compared to this, I’m even more worried about you being the one to run to his room in the middle of the night.”

“……Oh.”

…

When Yan Cheng came home, he noticed an extra pair of women’s shoes at the doorway.

He was immediately delighted and as if by telepathy, his first destination was the bedroom. As soon as he stepped inside, he could hear the sound of running water coming from the bathroom.

He looked at the suitcase in front of the cabinet and the clothes strewn across the floor on the other side.

As well as the shorts and pajama top that was resting on the bed, ready to be changed into.

“…”

God, what a situation.

Yan Cheng’s body stiffened and he unconsciously gulped, the bulge in his throat bobbing up and down sexily. As soon as he thought about what Chen Jinyao was doing in the bathroom now, his eyes began to drift and slacken, and he also felt his mouth go dry.

No wonder they say a short goodbye was better than a new marriage.

He usually wouldn’t react so much.

To be honest, while his face was burning, he felt extreme shame within himself. He just wanted to slap himself and tell himself to sober up and act more reserved.

But on second thought, that didn’t seem right. He should be passionate about his wife.

Then, in the next second, the bathroom door opened.

Chen Jinyao came out, wrapped in a pink bath towel.

The bath towel was not too long and barely covered her hips.

Water droplets slid down from her hair to the side of her pretty neck before finally gathering on her collarbones.

She was so red from the heat that even the corners of her eyes were wet.

The two of them looked wordlessly at each other.

The hands naturally hanging on both sides of his thighs unconsciously clenched into fists. He forced himself to calm down and walked over to Chen Jinyao. Licking his lips, he asked, “You’re back early?”

“Yeah.” Chen Jinyao nodded.

Then, when the two had become very close, she took the initiative to stretch her arms around his neck and raised her head to land a kiss on his chin. When she spoke again, there was a lazy tone in her voice with a small hint of amusement. “Did you miss me?”

“I did.” Yan Cheng’s voice turned hoarse as he murmured a reply. He clasped the back of her head with his big hand and, instead of laying a peck on her like a chick pecking at rice, he really went forward to bite on her lips and pry open her teeth, constantly deepening their kiss.

Ten minutes later.

No matter how hard it was to separate, he still ended the kiss under Chen Jinyao’s slapping and pushing.

Both of them were a little out of breath.

Yan Cheng’s eyes were like that of a predator’s still, but he still restrained himself and nuzzled the tip of her nose, asking, “Have you eaten?”

Chen Jinyao nodded her head obediently.

=============

The sight of it caused Yan Cheng’s head to grow hot again. He raised a brow. “I was thinking I’d wash up and wait for you to come back, but seems like you’re the one who washed up to wait for me instead.”

As soon as he said that, he gave two light pats to the buttocks of the person in his arms.

A suggestive action, informing her that they might as well continue since they’ve already come to this.

“…”

Chen Jinyao blinked her eyes. “Hold on.”

She slapped away his misbehaving hands and patted his face before putting some distance between them. She smooshed his cheeks left and right and only looked seriously into his eyes once she has had enough and said, “I have something to talk to you about.”

“Huh?” Yan Cheng calmed his urges and raised his brows.

Chen Jinyao pursed her lips and didn’t look away. After staring into his eyes for a moment, she said clearly, “Honey, my period hasn’t come this month.”

She traced the outline of the man’s face with her fingertips and paused for two seconds before calmly announcing as if she was just announcing she had eaten dinner, “I think I’m pregnant.”

Yan Cheng, “?????”

Yan Cheng, “……”

Yan Cheng, “!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

Chen Jinyao kissed the corner of his lips. “But I don’t think it can be tested yet.”

Yan Cheng’s mind went blank. He could even feel his hands trembling near her belly. It was unbelievable.

He even had the thought that holding Chen Jinyao now in this state was completely savage of him.

The lust that had gathered in his body had all been doused. He was dumbfounded. “Oh, then we can get it checked in a couple days.”

Silence.

Yan Cheng suddenly made an “eh” in an extremely maiden-like fashion, which gave Chen Jinyao goosebumps. Following that, she heard him say in great surprise, “It’s a girl, right?”

Chen Jinyao shot him down mercilessly, “Not necessarily.”

“…”

…

A few days later, prison.

Huo Qidong went to visit Zhou Xue with a lawyer.

Of course, he was not here to defend her, but instead hoping that ZHou Xue could sign their divorce papers as soon as possible.

But the results were not as he expected. Zhou Xue said that she would drag Huo Qidong to hell with her if she had to and would not cooperate. The lawyer couldn’t do anything about it either. So, a few days after this standoff, Huo Qidong went personally to see Zhou Xue.

It has been a long time since she experienced this, so experiencing it again put her in a daze.

Zhou Xue felt that this was truly the calmest and most peaceful side of Huo Qidong while speaking to herself in the past six months or so. It was rare for him to speak to her without resentment.

And, he was speaking to her with this calmness about their divorce.

This was hard for Zhou Xue to accept, and just as she was about to get hysterical again…

Huo Qidong said, “Zhou Xue, Zhou Chao is your little brother.”

She was stunned.

“You really are a vicious woman, to think you could even kill your own brother.”

For a moment, she didn’t think he had the right to criticize her.

But Huo Qidong still said it, and he told her how cold-blooded she was in an almost mocking tone. “You had no idea, didn’t you? Any woman who had anything to do with me will eventually be threatened by Zhou Chao.”

He rapped his fingers lightly on the table and spoke without any emotion. “Zhou Chao threatened them to leave me, telling them that you were the real Mrs. Huo.”

“Also, this is also something Zhou Chao told me himself. He blamed Yan Cheng for my estrangement to you and that he wanted to bring Yan Cheng down for it. But in the end, Yan Cheng was from the Yan family, so he didn’t have the ability to do it…” Huo Qidong suddenly scoffed. He had also just found out about this matter. “Don’t you think it’s idiotic? Before what happened to him, he was constantly gathering people to take drugs in the Er Pavilion, and he wanted to destroy the Er Pavilion Yan Cheng painstakingly brought up in this way. Tsk, now look at yourself. You’re the one who killed him with your own hands.”

“That’s enough for now, I hope you can quickly agree to settle our divorce.”

“It was also rare of me to find enough kindness in me to sympathize with you and to offer you an easy way out.”

…

The sun was setting. Huo Qidong drove home without looking back.

While Zhou Xue sat there, frozen in the corner. Who knows how long had passed, but eventually, she bawled her eyes out.
