Chapter 117 - Then Husband Will Hug You
Nighttime
After Luo Ruxin left, the bedroom returned to the warmth of a family of three.
Luo Hongye, looking very happy, obediently lay in the middle. Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying lay on either side of her, as usual, embracing their child between them.
"Daddy, Mommy, do I really have to go to school?"
Luo Hongye clutched the quilt with both hands, her head peeking out, her little eyes filled with reluctance.
"Ye Ye, school is very interesting."
"You can make many new friends and play games with them~"
"There will also be other sisters like Sister Qi to take care of you."
Luo Ruying lay on her side, one hand propping up her cheek, the other gently stroking the quilt on Luo Hongye's body, comforting her softly.
She could sense her child's unwillingness to leave her and Ning Yechen's side.
Of course, she was also reluctant, but she couldn't keep the child by their side forever, lacking interaction with others.
"Ye Ye, don't worry."
"Tomorrow, Daddy and Mommy will go with you."
Ning Yechen also softly reassured Luo Hongye.
"Okay..."
Luo Hongye's little face still showed reluctance, but she obediently nodded.
Luo Ruying pondered for a moment, then, taking advantage of the fact that Luo Hongye wasn't asleep yet, asked,
"Ye Ye, do you want to become a cultivator in the future?"
The commotion the child had caused at Nanli Academy this morning was quite significant, and even she had never seen such a spectacle of golden clouds filling the sky.
It indicated that the child's talent might even surpass her own.
She wanted to leave everything to the child's own choice.
"Mommy, what's a cultivator?"
Luo Hongye didn't understand what Luo Ruying meant. She tilted her head, her face full of innocence and confusion.
Luo Ruying's beautiful face showed a hint of difficulty, unsure how to answer...
Should she tell her that cultivators are those who cultivate the Dao to become immortals, pursuing the dream of eternal life...?
For a two-year-old child, that was probably too profound...
Just as Luo Ruying was struggling, Ning Yechen interjected with a smile,
"Ye Ye, cultivators are people who can fly through the heavens and travel beneath the earth, capable of anything, just like your powerful Mommy!"
"Oooh~!"
Upon hearing this, Luo Hongye's bright, clear eyes sparkled with excitement, and she asked curiously,
"Can they also conjure many beautiful little birds, like Daddy did when he flew with Ye Ye~?"
"O-Of course they can... Hahaha..."
Ning Yechen broke out in a cold sweat and replied with a forced smile.
Looking up, he saw Luo Ruying's beautiful eyes gazing at him with curiosity...
"Oh? Husband, you can also conjure beautiful little birds?"
"Hehe... Wifey, it's just a little trick to entertain the child..."
Ning Yechen explained sheepishly.
Luo Ruying suddenly understood, assuming it was something like origami birds, and didn't ask any further questions.
It's good to let the child have some innocent and romantic fantasies...
Seeing that Luo Ruying didn't seem suspicious anymore, Ning Yechen breathed a sigh of relief and quickly changed the subject,
"So, Ye Ye, do you want to become powerful like Mommy?"
Luo Ruying also gazed at Luo Hongye quietly, waiting for her answer.
Luo Hongye's adorable little face pondered seriously for a moment, then she looked at Ning Yechen and asked,
"Daddy, if Ye Ye becomes as powerful as Mommy, can I protect Daddy and Mommy from being bullied by those bad guys?"
Upon hearing this, both Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying were stunned, their gazes meeting.
They never expected a two-year-old child to say such a thing...
Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying were deeply moved and comforted. They both reached out and embraced Luo Hongye's small body, leaning close to her face and saying softly,
"Yes! Ye Ye will definitely become even more powerful than Daddy and Mommy in the future!"
"But before that, Daddy and Mommy will protect you."
"Our Ye Ye just needs to be happy every day~"
"Okay...!"
"Then Ye Ye has decided, Ye Ye wants to become as powerful as Mommy~!"
"I won't let those bad guys bully Mommy and Daddy!"
Luo Hongye happily rubbed her cheeks against Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying's faces, her heart filled with joy.
Luo Ruying was deeply touched, her eyes welling up with tears that slowly streamed down her cheeks...
Not wanting to worry her child, Luo Ruying quickly turned away and secretly wiped away her tears.
Her child's understanding made her heart ache...
Soon, surrounded by the love and protection of Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying, Luo Hongye peacefully fell into a deep sleep.
Luo Ruying gazed at Luo Hongye's small body with love in her eyes. A hand reached out to her cheek, wiping away the remaining tear stains that hadn't fully dried...
Luo Ruying looked up and saw Ning Yechen looking at her with a gentle smile on his face.
"My wife, thank you..."
"Hmm? What are you thanking me for?"
Luo Ruying asked, puzzled.
"Thank you for bringing Ye Ye into my life~"
Ning Yechen said with a soft smile.
In the dim room, Luo Ruying's cheeks flushed instantly, and she shyly rolled her eyes at Ning Yechen.
Luo Ruying thought that Ning Yechen hadn't noticed her embarrassment in the dim light, unaware that he had already seen everything clearly...
Including her alluring posture as she lay on her side, her exquisite curves were truly captivating.
My wife looks so adorable when she's shy...
Ning Yechen's heart stirred. Reaching across the sleeping Luo Hongye, he wrapped his arms around Luo Ruying's slender waist, pulling her closer.
"Wh-What are you doing...?"
"The child is still sleeping, you, you mustn't misbehave!"
Luo Ruying's heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly whispered in a flustered tone.
"My dear, you're wronging your husband."
"When have I ever misbehaved?"
Ning Yechen explained innocently.
If he truly wanted to misbehave, he would have taken advantage of that drunken night long ago...
He was a gentleman!
"Then what are you doing now...?"
Luo Ruying glared at Ning Yechen and asked.
His hands were still wrapped around her waist...
"Your husband just wants to embrace his wife..."
"May I...?"
Ning Yechen asked in a gentle tone.
Luo Ruying: "..."
Luo Ruying felt she couldn't refuse and had no choice but to agree.
"Alright, but just hugging, okay...?"
"Mm-hmm!"
"Your husband will only hug you, I promise not to do anything else strange!"
Ning Yechen immediately nodded in agreement.
Reassured, Luo Ruying allowed Ning Yechen to embrace her, closing her eyes.
The next second, Luo Ruying's pretty face twitched slightly, and a dissatisfied, coquettish voice echoed in the dark room...
"Husband! Your hand is in the wrong place...!"
"Sorry, my dear, it's too dark, I couldn't see~"
Luo Ruying: "...!"
