Chapter 40 - Chapter 39: A True Helper

After Ye Chen finished speaking, he walked towards the bathroom. At this moment, Li Kexin suddenly became nervous.

"Xiaoya, I... I..."

Du Xiaoya was stunned for a moment, then leaned into Li Kexin's ear and whispered a few words. After listening, Li Kexin's face turned red like a braised prawn.

"Really... really?"

Du Xiaoya said with a smile,

"Could I still lie to you?"

Li Kexin turned her head and glanced at Ye Chen's back as he had just walked into the bathroom. An electric current surged through her heart for no reason.

Not long after, the sound of running water echoed from the bathroom. Feeling the warmth emanating from the running water, Ye Chen's mood was extraordinarily happy.

"I really didn't expect that Xiaoya has the attributes of a good helper..."

he mused. In the afternoon, Li Kexin had refused to be Ye Chen's "Little Five." Who would have thought that after going shopping, a significant gap would suddenly appear in the defenses she had strictly guarded? After a meal, Li Kexin had suddenly surrendered and chosen Ye Chen. The speed of her transformation had seriously exceeded Ye Chen's expectations. At first, Ye Chen hadn't quite understood it, but now, if he still didn't understand, he'd be a fool. During this period, if Du Xiaoya hadn't worked to dismantle Li Kexin's line of defense, such an outcome would have been impossible. In fact, Ye Chen hadn't expected Du Xiaoya to provide such an "assist."

Time passed a little bit, and ten minutes later, Ye Chen finished taking a bath and came to the living room wearing a bathrobe. Li Kexin, who had initially been whispering to Du Xiaoya, immediately stopped her voice, then blushed and dared not look at Ye Chen. Seeing this, Du Xiaoya couldn't help but smile.

"Husband, Kexin is here with you. I will go to sleep first."

Ye Chen was stunned for a moment. Du Xiaoya then let out a small yawn and walked towards the second bedroom.

"Du Xiaoya really handled that well. She doesn't cry, she doesn't make trouble, she's sensible..." Ye Chen thought with a smile.

Li Kexin, now alone on the sofa with Ye Chen, saw the smile on his face and felt nervous for no reason.

"I... I'm going to take a bath..."

After Li Kexin finished speaking, she rushed towards the bathroom. Seeing Li Kexin's flustered appearance, Ye Chen couldn't help but smile.

"When she was chasing me down a street two years ago, it seemed she wasn't as fast as she is now..."

Thinking of this, Ye Chen sat on the sofa, picked up his mobile phone, and started browsing short videos. Time passed a little bit, and five minutes later, the sound of running water came from the bathroom. Ye Chen glanced in the direction of the bathroom, raised his eyebrows involuntarily, and continued to scan through videos. He could only hear the sound; he couldn't see anything that might be attractive. In fact, the allure was quite significant, but Ye Chen didn't look. There was no need, nor should he. After all, Li Kexin was already very nervous. If he made things worse, it might lead to an unfortunate incident where the "cooked duck flew away". What's more, everyone was now Ye Chen's; what was the hurry?

A little more time passed, and not long after, the background music of "Catch the Shrimp" suddenly sounded from his phone. At the same time, Ye Chen was stunned for a moment.

"Damn it! Isn't it? The video of my 360-degree rotational drift during the day has become so popular?"

Ye Chen had swiped onto his own short video—or rather, a video related to him that someone else had uploaded to a certain popular app. The protagonist in the video was Ye Chen himself. It now had 4 million likes and over 100,000 comments. As for the content of the video, it showed Ye Chen driving the Bugatti Veyron during the day, executing a beautiful 360-degree rotational drift, easily avoiding the illegally driving Volkswagen, then flashing a defiant gesture and speeding away. That's where the video ended. Looking at the short video that was being played repeatedly, Ye Chen thought about it and then sent a private message to the author of the video:

"You have seriously violated my personal privacy. Delete it immediately, or wait for a subpoena."

Ye Chen was actually just posting it for fun; he wasn't really planning to sue the person who had posted the video. There was only a profile view of his face in the video. Except for those who had just watched this video and happened to see Ye Chen driving the Bugatti Veyron, it would be impossible to recognize him. For example, the group of little girls who had wanted to take a photo with Ye Chen during the day was a living example. It had been a coincidence; otherwise, no one would have recognized Ye Chen.

After sending the private message, Ye Chen continued to scan short videos. Time passed little by little, and half an hour later, Li Kexin, with a blushing face and wearing a bathrobe, came out nervously. At this moment, her slender and dazzling long legs, moist and white shoulders, a neck as graceful as a snow lotus root, and a face flushed pink appeared directly in front of Ye Chen's eyes. Li Kexin's figure was a little more petite compared to Du Xiaoya's, but she possessed an S-shaped curve that was not inferior to Du Xiaoya's. Coupled with the unique delicacy often found in Jiangnan women, this gave Li Kexin a unique beauty.

"When I took her home that day, I didn't look at her carefully. But now, looking closely, it seems I've found a treasure..."

Thinking of this, Ye Chen walked over. Seeing Ye Chen approaching, Li Kexin immediately lowered her head in shame. Ye Chen gently lifted Li Kexin's chin, and her beautiful face suddenly appeared before his eyes. Looking at Li Kexin's eyes, which were almost submerged in moisture like jewels, Ye Chen smiled slightly and asked,

"Ready to rest?"

"Well..." Li Kexin replied softly.

The murmur-like response instantly ignited Ye Chen's already boiling blood. With a swift horizontal hug, Ye Chen picked up Li Kexin and walked towards the master bedroom.
