944: Chapter 940: Who are you?
“Ye Tian, I truly wish time could stand still—I in you, you in me—so we could lean on each other like this forever!”
Yun Xinyan spoke softly.
Ever since she became pregnant, she had been openly expressing her feelings without reserve.
Ye Tian felt his heart melt at the sound of her voice.
In this beautiful moment, he wished for it all to last as long as possible…
The couple leaned against one another, cuddling for a while, until evening rolled around.
“Grrrrrrrr~~~~~~~”
Ye Tian’s stomach emitted a long growl, prompting Yun Xinyan to burst out laughing.
“Pfft!”
“Ye Tian, so you’re hungry?”
Ye Tian chuckled helplessly, “They say beauty feeds the soul, but while ‘beauty’ can nourish the heart, it does little for a starving stomach!
I need real food to tide me over.”
“In that case, I’ll cook something for you!”
Yun Xinyan began to rise but was quickly pulled back by Ye Tian.
“Honey, you’re pregnant, you mustn’t overexert yourself!
Cooking and such—leave that to me.
Today, I’m going to make a nourishing meal for my lovely wife!”
“…”
Seeing Ye Tian’s enthusiasm, Yun Xinyan didn’t argue and let him head to the kitchen.
Since Yun Xinyan was pregnant, the refrigerator was stocked with plenty of nutritious food.
Ye Tian selected a few of the best ingredients and began cooking with great care.
Ye Tian’s culinary skills were top-notch.
Before long, he had prepared a table full of dishes and brought them to Yun Xinyan.
While Yun Xinyan’s cooking skills had improved, she still couldn’t match Ye Tian’s level…
As a result, Yun Xinyan hadn’t enjoyed such delicious food in a long time!
The dishes Ye Tian prepared were not only flavorful but tailored to Yun Xinyan’s preferences.
She ate eagerly, indulging herself thoroughly!
It’s worth noting that, after her pregnancy, Yun Xinyan’s appetite improved significantly, and she ate more than she used to.
She ended up consuming nearly half the dishes on the table!
The rest of the food was finished by Ye Tian…
The couple cleaned the table completely, leaving no scraps behind.
Ye Tian teased, “Darling, you’re eating quite a lot!
I hope you’re sharing some nutrients with the baby and not hogging them all to yourself!”
Yun Xinyan pouted and retorted, “No matter how much I eat, I’ll always pass nutrients to the baby.
But you, Ye Tian—no matter how much you eat, you pig—you won’t be able to share any nutrients with the baby!”
The married couple bantered lightheartedly, their affection deepening through playful teasing…
After dinner, Ye Tian and Yun Xinyan sat on the couch to watch TV for a while, before retreating to their bedroom to sleep.
Yun Xinyan changed into a loose-fitting nightgown, and only then did Ye Tian notice her transformed figure.
Her belly had become slightly rounded, and her entire body appeared a bit fuller.
Yet at this moment, Yun Xinyan exuded the charm of a mature woman.
Once, Yun Xinyan could be described as a youthful girl, but now she had blossomed into an irresistible young wife!
Ye Tian couldn’t resist gently kissing Yun Xinyan on her cheek.
“Honey, you’re so beautiful.”
“Hmph!
Stop buttering me up!”
Yun Xinyan playfully scolded, already used to joking around with Ye Tian this way.
Ye Tian, unrestrained in showing his admiration, continued, “Sweetheart, you’re like the moon in the sky, lighting up my path ahead!
Your beauty rivals that of Venus from Greek mythology…”
“Time for bed.”
Yun Xinyan, uninterested in humoring him, simply lay down on the bed.
Ye Tian followed suit, slipping into bed and gently wrapping Yun Xinyan in his arms…
“Darling, shall we…you know…tonight?”
Ye Tian asked with a mischievous grin, though Yun Xinyan’s response was predictable.
“Stay away!
Don’t disrupt the baby’s prenatal education!”
Yun Xinyan’s words didn’t contain a single crude phrase, yet they felt like a sharp slap to Ye Tian’s ego.
Was pregnancy the reason his wife’s comments had become so biting?
“Alright then…sweetheart…goodnight…”
Ye Tian muttered ruefully before surrendering to sleep.
Yun Xinyan slowly closed her eyes, quickly sinking into slumber.
Perhaps due to Ye Tian’s companionship, Yun Xinyan slept soundly and deeply that night, while Ye Tian, comforted by his beloved’s presence, also enjoyed a peaceful rest.
The two of them slept in until ten the next morning!
After waking up, Ye Tian made a simple breakfast in the kitchen, which the pair then ate together.
Since it wasn’t the weekend and the hour was late, Ye Tian asked Yun Xinyan, “Darling, it’s so late already.
Are you still going to work at Yun Corporation today?”
Yun Xinyan glanced at her phone and said, “Well, since it’s already late, let’s skip work today!
I’m not too worried about the company—Lan and the department heads have everything under control; nothing could possibly go wrong.”
“Hehe~~~ That works too!”
Ye Tian chuckled, feeling reassured.
Ever since Yun Xinyan’s pregnancy, Bai Lan had held meetings with Yun Corporation’s senior staff to redistribute her workload among the department heads.
Because of this, Yun Xinyan wasn’t overly busy—missing a day or two of work wouldn’t cause any issues.
Meanwhile, Ye Tian had no immediate plans to return to the Night King Hall’s headquarters…
Since there was no pressing business at Night King Hall, Ye Tian wanted to stay close and care for his beloved wife during her pregnancy.
Ye Tian took a stroll with Yun Xinyan through the villa district, and before long it was noon.
He then began preparing lunch.
After lunch, the pair sat on the couch to watch TV for a while.
Yun Xinyan sniffed herself…
“Goodness, I’ve never walked around this much before.
After strolling through the villa district, I’m covered in sweat—I’ll go take a shower.”
Saying that, Yun Xinyan headed to the bathroom…
Ye Tian stayed on the couch watching TV.
Sometime later, Yun Xinyan emerged, fresh and clean.
She wore a bathrobe, her luscious skin faintly visible beneath it.
Casting Ye Tian a glance, she walked over and sat beside him.
After a while, Yun Xinyan whispered, “Ye Tian, even though I’m pregnant and can’t be close to you, I must admit—I still miss you deeply.”
Yun Xinyan’s words made Ye Tian’s heart skip a beat.
“Darling, you’ve finally come around?”
“I have.”
Yun Xinyan nodded.
She then gently pushed Ye Tian back onto the couch, climbing on top of him.
The two nestled close…
Yun Xinyan’s lips parted slightly, her cherry-red mouth appearing irresistibly alluring to Ye Tian.
“Honey, you’re unusually understanding today,” Ye Tian remarked with a smile, lying still as Yun Xinyan pressed herself against him.
Unhesitatingly, Yun Xinyan helped Ye Tian unbutton his shirt.
Her petite hands began to caress his chest gently…
“Not bad!”
Ye Tian said with satisfaction.
Yet Yun Xinyan’s hands didn’t stop—instead, they expertly teased Ye Tian, wandering across his skin.
Suddenly, Yun Xinyan’s hand brushed against Ye Tian’s chest near his heart.
A sharp glimmer emanated from her fingertips.
The once-tender fingers morphed as her nails elongated into deadly claws, stabbing fiercely toward Ye Tian’s heart!
“Slap!”
Ye Tian’s reflexes were swift; he caught Yun Xinyan’s attacking hand midair.
No longer displaying happiness, Ye Tian’s face turned grim as he stared at the woman before him.
“Who are you?”
The “Yun Xinyan” before him revealed a look of shock.
“Ye Tian, how did you notice?
Didn’t your mind just lapse completely?”
Ye Tian remained composed.
“You seem capable of detecting mental lapses.
That’s why you struck, isn’t it?”
As a skilled Martial Artist, observing one’s opponent’s behavior is paramount for mastery!
Detecting an enemy’s mental state puts one at a significant advantage—and the reverse exposes one’s vulnerability.
This adversary could discern Ye Tian’s mental state, presenting a formidable challenge…
“What if I could detect it?
I didn’t expect to fail.”
“Yun Xinyan” sneered.
Despite being unveiled, she displayed no fear—as though Ye Tian held no threat against her.
“Who are you?
Your disguise is remarkable; not only imitating Xinyan’s appearance but even her scent.
I’ve never seen such skill!”
Ye Tian growled.
If this imposter hadn’t mimicked not just Yun Xinyan’s appearance but also her fragrance precisely, how could he have been fooled?
The finest disguises can replicate looks but fail to imitate body scent, remaining unconvincing to an impersonated individual’s close ones.
Yet this person was different.
Her impersonation of Yun Xinyan was flawless even in scent—so flawless, Ye Tian initially mistook her for his wife!
Fortunately, her behavior didn’t align with Yun Xinyan’s, making Ye Tian suspicious.
Feigning vulnerability was his trap—and she had fallen for it!
