However, after a while, Lin Wan sensed that something was amiss with Xiao Yichen’s actions.

“What exactly do you want?” Lin Wan was unable to comprehend Xiao Yichen’s intentions. Observing his expression, she found it impossible to decipher his thoughts.
This man was too astute. She couldn’t discern anything at all.
“What do you think?” Xiao Yichen replied slowly and meaningfully.
“How would I know?” She couldn’t possibly fathom his thoughts; she wasn’t privy to his innermost desires. How could she predict his intentions?

“It’s nothing. We’re just having a chat,” Xiao Yichen stated. If she wanted to pretend, he would oblige.
Naturally, Lin Wan didn’t believe him. How could it be just a chat when he was in such close proximity?
“Xiao Yichen, you should leave,” Lin Wan scornfully uttered, despising him.
However, she found herself unable to push him away. He was a tall and muscular man, while she was a weak woman at a clear disadvantage.
Xiao Yichen regarded the woman before him with an appraising gaze. Her oval-shaped face was becoming increasingly pleasing to his eyes.
A faint smile graced the corners of Xiao Yichen’s lips as he spoke softly, “Wan’er, how do you address me…”

Fear gripped Lin Wan, and she quickly banished her wandering thoughts. She looked into Xiao Yichen’s eyes and nervously replied, “No, nothing.”
Terrified of potential punishment from this man, Lin Wan recognized that he exuded anything but gentleness. Even in his calmness, there was an air of dignity that made it seem as if he held the power of life and death.
Once again, Lin Wan collected herself, refraining from overthinking. She came up with a name and blurted out, “Chen.”
Upon hearing this form of address, Xiao Yichen pondered for a moment and found himself quite satisfied.

“Alright, call me that from now on, alright?” Xiao Yichen declared.
“I know, okay, okay!” Lin Wan replied nervously.
Xiao Yichen’s eyes softened as he observed her nervous demeanor. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he spoke with a hint of charm, “Wan’er, there’s no need to be nervous between husband and wife.”
He repeated his words, emphasizing his point, “Relax in front of me.”
