After reaching the bedroom, Yuan Xuan helped her put on a pair of warm shoes. His expression was grim as he spoke in a low voice, “It’s been very easy for you to catch a cold ever since young, and you’d have stomach ache every time you have your period. All these are due to your lack of awareness.”

Mu Chenyan was stunned. “Stomachache? You still remember those things…”

As he said, every time she had her menstruation when she was younger, she would feel extreme discomfort in her stomach.

There was once during the winter holidays, she had come to play in the Yuan Family and had followed Yuan Tian to the man-made lake for too long. Upon her return, her period arrived, and she passed out from the pain.

Yuan Xuan had carried her to the bed at the time. Mu Chenyan’s complexion was pale as she clutched her stomach and moaned in bed. This frightened Yuan Xuan so much that he even called over his family doctor.

The doctor prescribed painkillers, and after the pain slowly eased, she fell into a deep sleep on Yuan Xuan’s bed.

When she woke up, she, she saw that she had painted Yuan Xuan’s bedsheet with a piece of blood artwork…

“You still owe me a bedsheet.” As the man spoke, he began to laugh heartily, making Mu Chenyan very uncomfortable.

“That was my first time having menstruation… I didn’t know how to handle it…”

The embarrassing topic instantly made Mu Chenyan want to die in a hole.

“Now you’re all grown up, and yet you haven’t learned to take care of yourself. How are you going to be a mother in the future and take good care of our baby? Hmm?”

As Yuan Xuan spoke, his voice was filled with an love, despite the fact that he was being extremely serious. He had to teach his future child’s mother well.

Hearing this, Mu Chenyan was stunned. She actually thought of the possibility of Yuan Xuan and her staying together until the end of time.

He would dote on her forever, while there would be no need for her to think about revenge. What a good and peaceful life it would be!

Perhaps they would even keep their promise to Old Mistress and have babies soon…

She didn’t know why, but the moment she had this thought, Mu Chenyan’s heart suddenly became troubled.

After having a child, there would be substantial change in their relationship, and that was something that she could not fathom at the moment!

Yuan Xuan was wearing his thick dark-colored woolen sweater. After bending down and helping her put on her shoes, the soft material of the shirt brushed against the tip of her nose.

Yuan Xuan then embraced her in his arms and suddenly asked, “Tell me, would you like a baby boy? “Or baby girl?”

Mu Chenyan froze and replied softly, “Baby… baby girl. Goodness me, things are nowhere near that stage yet. What’s the point of talking about it this early?”

Feeling embarrassed, Mu Chenyan quickly changed the topic.

“Hmm. I want to have a goal to strive for. I’ll go and find out which technique will net us a higher chance of getting a girl when we’re having our sessions.”

Yuan Xuan spoke with all seriousness. Mu Chenyan sighed in her heart. Every time he did it, he would pull all sorts of tricks. How could he ever keep to just one technique?

However, she didn’t want to discuss this with him any longer.

She could only lower her head and continue to listen to him spouting nonsense while her face flushed red.

“When that time comes, we’ll have a little princess, and then we can have baby boy after. I’ll teach him to be a gentleman toward the two of you!”

Yuan Xuan was speaking as if all these things were certain to come true. He was even planning to pave the way for his baby boy to become a fine and warm young man.

Mu Chenyan could not bear the pull of this superbly handsome man. However, in her mind, Yuan Xuan was never a warm man.

At least during her ten-year pursuit, she had never once experienced his warmth. Hearing that he wanted to bring up his son to be warm and friendly, she could not help but be amused.

“You yourself are not warm, yet, you want your son to be like this?” Mu Chenyan chuckled and remarked softly. It was impossible for Yuan Xuan to miss the mockery in her statement.

He suddenly lifted her chin, and they looked each other in the eye. The pupils in Yuan Xuan’s bright eyes were deep, and the surging emotions in them instantly submerged her…

Mu Chenyan felt a little uneasy, and her pretty eyelashes quickly batted. Seeing the signs of danger in Yuan Xuan’s eyes, Mu Chenyan shuddered. Before she could reject him, a scorching heat had spread through her lips, making her moan softly.

Yuan Xuan kissed passionately, his tongue tangled with hers and as it entered her mouth, stirring up her emotions in the process.

Her arms wrapped around his neck as she tried her best to lean closer to him. At times, she would initiate the moves and take a step back in order to allow him to further his advances, playing hard-to-get.

Yuan Xuan sensed her mischievous play, and he kissed her even more intensely. One of his hands held her thin waist against him, such that she was able to feel his hardened object. He was telling her that he wanted her now, while the other hand held her head as he gradually began to advance and entrench himself, pressing on harder and harder at every opportunity…

Mu Chenyan felt like suffocating. She made a muffled sound and surrendered, but by then, she was already forced into a corner with no means of escape.

Only then did Yuan Xuan release her lips, but he then turned to her sensitive ears and whispered in a deep voice, “I have no idea what a sunshine boy is like* (TL: A warm and friendly boy), but I do have an idea of how to ignite your passion at any time…”

This man surely loved to seek revenge for the smallest grievance!

Mu Chenyan had no idea how long this demonstration went on for. She only knew that her legs eventually gave way in the end, and she ended up leaning on his shoulder panting exhaustingly.

The two were smooching each other passionately early in the morning, going at it so intensely that it was if they were running a ten-kilometer race. Yuan Xuan had been exercising regularly, hence his lung capacity was huge. This kind of small workout was just dessert after a meal, but it was not the case for Mu Chenyan.

Her mind was spinning from the kissing, and her face had an abnormal flush to it.

Seeing Yuan Xuan smirking while holding her in his arms, she tried to change the topic and said, “Yuan Xuan, are there any important people in Zong He Sanatorium?”

Maybe because they had talked about the past, and this, coupled with the passionate kiss from just now, had made Mu Chenyan suddenly feel a gush of warmth in her heart.

She wanted to attempt to trust Yuan Xuan. Now, her intuition was telling her that Zhao Ruoxin forcing her mother to feign insanity to enter Zong He Sanatorium to fulfill an ulterior motive.

Yuan Xuan hesitated for a while. The complexion of the steady-natured man darkened, and surprise flashed through his exquisite eyes. He asked quietly, “Why are you asking about this all of a sudden?”

Seeing Yuan Xuan’s response, although it was brief, Mu Chenyan noted that Yuan Xuan had his guard up when faced with her question.

She swallowed the words that were on the tip of her tongue. The trust that had just bloomed in her heart gradually dissipated, and after some thought, she said, “Nothing. I’m just randomly asking. Previously I’ve heard from Yuan Tian that the Yuan Family had contributed vastly to the public sector, and she asked me whether I want to be a volunteer…”

“Zong He is mainly for the rehabilitation of those in the later stage of mental illness. It’s not suitable for you to be a volunteer there.”

As Yuan Xuan spoke, he got nervous that this woman would throw a tantrum like she did yesterday and feel that he was confining her, so he continued on to say,

“If you want to do volunteer work, you can go to either East Star Sanatorium or Tian Yi Orphanage. They are very near the town. “However, you have to take note of your safety when you drive to and fro.”

He thought that this was what Mu Chenyan was thinking, but she was actually just making things up.

Hearing Yuan Xuan’s words, Mu Chenyan nodded, but she had other plans in her heart — she would look into the matter regarding Zong He herself!

Although she had found Mu Chenwu, her initial plan to become a reporter was still very much alive. Moreover, with this new-found identity as a cover, it would be convenient for her when she went investigating.

Since she already knew that Zhao Ruoxin had a hidden agenda, it was impossible for her to not do anything. As she was Shu Qinger’s younger sister, this could lead to some clues about Qinger’s case.

She decided that after Chinese New Year, once there was news from Wu Ze, she would begin to flex her muscles at the outside world and show her capabilities. She could not help but be excited at the thought of this.
