Chapter 161 - His Wife Brings Him Luck (1)

The busy days passed in a flash.

With just a blink of an eye, it was already December.

All four seasons, after having survived the unbearable summer heat, going through autumn to winter, now the imperial capital was surrounded by the chilly winter again.

Chen Jinyao’s belly was getting bigger.

The amazing thing was that her posture hadn’t changed because of the pregnancy, or that it hadn’t changed much, her curves were still there.

If they had to say that something was different about her, it would probably just be the fact that she’s gained slight weight, and as a result, her complexion seemed better. This alone, Yan Cheng was very satisfied.

At home, where there was underfloor heating.

Chen Jinyao was wearing an oversized dress and twirled in front of the full-length mirror, she would unconsciously fall into self-dislikement, and sprint to the study to complain to Yan Cheng who was working: “I’m simply overnourished.”

Yan Cheng looked up at her. He was rather unfazed by her words. After a long while, his lips pressed slightly and said with a gentle voice, “No.”

Upon hearing that, Chen Jinyao was stunned. She lowered her gaze and looked at herself, frowning deep in thought. The thoughts of a pregnant woman can become rather strange, and she would suddenly become unreasonable, just like this moment, after she came back to her senses, her eyes widened suddenly, and then she faced Yan Cheng with an indescribable expression: “Hey, all you men, just love to touch slightly chubby woman.”

“……” Yan Cheng thought for a while, her words did make some sense, and nodded, going along with her conclusion with a smile. “It seems to be so.”

Chen Jinyao’s lips moved, but was left speechless by how frank he was being.

Her small bickers, it was as if her unreasonable arrogance landed on soft cotton. Chen Jinyao deeply reflected on herself, and suddenly was discouraged. She quietly glanced at Yan Cheng, who was no longer an young master who had too much time on his hands, and knew that he had work to attend to. It wasn’t nice to constantly interrupt him this way, so she blinked and turned around to leave the study.

The man behind her said with a smile: “I only like your chubbiness.”

“……” Chen Jinyao got goosebumps all over her body.

She stopped in her steps, her whole body trembled, and she fled the room after a few seconds.

A bang could be heard when the study door was slammed shut.

Yan Cheng just let Chen Jinyao have her way with everything.

Almost everything, he let Chen Jinyao have her way.

Over time, this became a habit, and his “way” became a part of him even when they were at friend gatherings.

When Shao Chongsi saw this, he couldn’t help but sigh, he paused, and couldn’t help but remind, “You, no one could deal with you.”

After thinking for a moment, he raised his eyebrows,  and said with a gloat, “If you are like this, your wife will definitely take advantage of this in the future, and run all over you.”

The other people around them chimed in in agreement..

Some of them who were senseless, even jokingly gave Yan Cheng the title of “A henpecked husband”.

Although this title had already spread.

Yan Cheng’s beautiful peachy eyes raised, his gaze remained domineering, and the atmosphere that was once heated silenced.

He squinted his eyes, and casually placed his right hand on the edge of the table. The back of his hand seemed to be dyed in colour under the dim light. His pale fingertips touched the transparent cup, as he rubbed it twice before replying to Shao Chongsi lazily. : “She won’t.”

Shao Chongsi snorted, his light brown eyes were cold.

His expression of disdain obviously showed that he didn’t believe what Yan Cheng said.

“Do you think I haven’t been in love?”

“Women are like this. If you are good to her, she will constantly demand for more. If you treat her badly or in a cold manner, she will torment you in various ways.”
