Next, after discussing the trip to Haogang, Ye Xuan took the initiative to change the topic.

He didn't really take the matter to heart, or rather, it hadn't reached a level that required his attention!

That's understandable, as retrieving Lin Zifeng isn't exactly a challenging task, so it was hard for him to muster much enthusiasm. Especially since it involves Lin Zifeng, that brother-in-law he couldn't stand; it's even harder to pay it any mind.

If not for his wife's sake, he wouldn't bother with Lin Zifeng's trivial issues. This time, he was treating it as a chance for a leisure trip over there.

"Wife, considering how diligent I've been, aren't you planning to give me a reward?"

Ye Xuan turned his eyes slightly, shamelessly asking.

At this moment, his wife was in front of him wearing only a nightgown. Could he really ignore that? If he didn't do something, it would be a disservice to himself.

"What reward do you want? A reward from my fist?" Lin Tong threatened, waving her small fist.

"Wife, I'm your husband, can you really bear to treat me this way?"

Ye Xuan blinked his eyes, putting on a pitiful look.

Seeing him like this, Lin Tong couldn't help but soften, glancing at him coldly, she said grumpily, "You heartless guy, I don't know what's in your head, always thinking about these nonsensical things, won't you empathize with me for once!"

"Wife, that's not fair of you to say. Wasn't I just helping you solve a problem? How am I not being considerate of you?" Ye Xuan retorted.

"Hmph, that's your responsibility and duty as a husband!" Lin Tong humphed coldly.

"So you're saying, as my wife, you shouldn't fulfill your own obligations?"

"No! It's your duty, don't push it onto me."

"Wife, you're like a magistrate who only allows setting fires, but forbids lighting lanterns!"

"Anyway, I'm not in the mood! Don't bother me!"

Not in the mood?

Ye Xuan looked her over, smirking mischievously as he approached, "Hehe, wife, you'll soon be in the mood."

As he spoke, he reached out his hand.

However, Lin Tong had been on guard against him long ago, and as he approached, she slapped his hand away, her expression slightly cold, "I've already told you, until that matter is resolved, don't touch me! Didn't you listen?"

"This... I can't even touch you a little, what kind of husband does that make me?" Ye Xuan sighed inwardly.

Realizing she might have spoken too harshly, Lin Tong softened her tone and said gently, "Ye Xuan, don't blame me, my mood is really bad right now. I just got over Natasha's issue, and now there's my brother's. Honestly, I'm not in the mood, can't you be a bit more understanding?"

Hearing this, Ye Xuan understood that he couldn't push it, and said helplessly, "Alright, you're not in the mood now, let's talk when you feel better."

Lin Tong thought for a moment and added, "Aren't you at Miaochan's place? Go find her later on!"

The meaning was clear enough.

She was suggesting Ye Xuan go to Lu Miaochan to be satisfied. Since she couldn't meet Ye Xuan's needs, he had to find another woman, but of course, it had to be a woman she approved of!

Hearing this, Ye Xuan protested, "Wife, it's one thing if you won't let me touch you, but now you're heartlessly kicking me out. That's too cruel! Am I really so unwelcome in your heart?"

"Is that so, you think I'm cruel? Then fine, don't go. I'll leave the living room for you, sleep on the couch tonight!" Lin Tong said with an indifferent expression.

"Uh... wife, I was joking, you're not cruel at all! I'll go to Miaochan's tonight, it's getting chilly, and I don't want to catch a cold sleeping on the sofa." Ye Xuan immediately put on a serious face and said earnestly.

Joking? Sleeping on the sofa is torture, but sleeping with his adorable little Miaochan is pure comfort!

"Then get out of here quickly! Don't stand there irritating me!"

Lin Tong said grumpily, throwing a pillow at Ye Xuan.

Seeing this, Ye Xuan's eyes twinkled, and he gave Lin Tong a playful pinch before swiftly escaping from the room.

"Ye Xuan, you bastard, get lost!"

Lin Tong, both angry and embarrassed, hurled the pillow in her hand once more.

But Ye Xuan had already escaped the room in time, leaving the pillow to bounce off the doorframe and tumble to the floor.

Outside the room, Ye Xuan felt euphoric. Getting the best of his wife before fleeing was, honestly, exhilarating!

Now, his eyes twinkled with mischief again, and he turned his attention to Su Yumo.

Su Yumo sat on the sofa, her gaze fixed on the room. When she saw Ye Xuan emerge, she immediately rose to meet him.

"How did the talk go between you two? Did it blow up?"

Su Yumo glanced at the room and asked quietly.

"Who said it blew up? We had a great discussion, and I've already resolved the issue perfectly, her anger's gone!" Ye Xuan said.

"Hmm? Really? Then why did I hear Xiaotong yelling angrily in the room?"

Su Yumo wore a face full of skepticism.

After all, she heard Lin Tong's shouting and curses loud and clear earlier.

Ye Xuan looked her up and down, a mysterious smile emerging on his lips, "Want to know?"

"Stop stringing me along, just tell me!" Su Yumo rolled her eyes.

"Come a little closer, I'll tell you!"

Ye Xuan beckoned with a finger.

Eager to know the answer, Su Yumo didn't think much of it and leaned closer to Ye Xuan.

Yet before Ye Xuan could speak, she felt herself suddenly pulled in by a strong force, drawing her uncontrollably into Ye Xuan's embrace, met by his face full of mischievous grins!

It was only then she realized she'd been tricked, but attempting to resist was already too late.

However, for future happiness, Ye Xuan didn't overdo it and soon released her.

"You villain, get out of my house!"

Su Yumo glared at Ye Xuan, pinching his arm hard, then pushed him toward the door.

Ye Xuan didn't resist, and having such a beauty pushing him only added to his comfort.

"Yumo, make sure to counsel Xiaotong for me, don't let her be upset!"

At the door, Ye Xuan suddenly said seriously to Su Yumo.

"Of course, I know that without you saying!"

"No, no, no, dear, you misunderstood me."

Ye Xuan shook his head, serious-faced, "I want you to counsel her to foster better feelings between you two, to eliminate any barriers she may have! That way, we can have endless fun together in the future!"

Su Yumo: "..."

"Get out! Get out of my house immediately!"

Su Yumo gave Ye Xuan a kick, slamming the door shut behind him with a bang.

"Stupid idiot, go have your daytime dreams somewhere else. Don't come causing trouble with us, the farther the better!"

Su Yumo, unable to suppress her rage, spat angrily after him before retreating into the room.

Once inside, before Su Yumo could say anything, she found Lin Tong staring fixedly at her with a scrutinizing look.
