Chapter 186: Chapter 106: Princess Carry

Chen Yuan checked the time and got ready for bed.

"What do you want for breakfast tomorrow?" Jiang Wanyi asked as he reached his bedroom door.

"Noodles are good, or congee would be fine too."

"You like soupy, brothy things in the morning, don’t you?"

"You got that right."

"Go get some rest. You have to get up early tomorrow."

"Yeah."

Chen Yuan returned to his room. The comforter smelled of fresh laundry detergent.

Lying under the covers, he saw a message from Song Jianye.

Her excitement about setting up the stall tomorrow was clear between the lines.

In reality, it was just setting up a street stall. All they needed was a car and a few small boxes.

But Song Jianye had prepared a whole colorful pile of stuff. It gave off the vibe that it didn’t matter if anything sold, as long as it looked good.

Song Jianye: "We’re setting up the stall tomorrow, and I have other things to take care of."

Song Jianye: "You should get to sleep early. Good night."

Chen Yuan: "No bedtime joke today?"

Song Jianye: "Today, I’m an entrepreneurial college student. Tomorrow, I’ll be the humorous college student. So, no jokes today."

Song Jianye: "Good night! Good night! Good night!"

Seeing Song Jianye send "good night" three times in a row showed him how much this mattered to her.

Chen Yuan: "Good night."

...

The next morning, when Chen Yuan woke up, he saw Jiang Wanyi in the kitchen.

Breakfast was ready and just coming off the stove.

He went to the bathroom to wash up, and when he came out, a bowl of noodles, fruit, and milk were served on the table.

"Are you going to pick up your daughter today?" Chen Yuan asked.

"People are strange, aren’t they? When she’s home, she drives me crazy. But now that she’s gone and I can finally have a few days of peace and quiet, I find I can’t stand it."

"You just love her too much. That’s not necessarily a good thing. Don’t get into the habit of spoiling her."

"You’re one to talk. You should take a look at yourself. I came up with a few tutoring classes yesterday, and you vetoed all of them. You’re not any better than me," Jiang Wanyi said with a laugh.

"Don’t underestimate me. I can be a very strict person."

"You sure?"

Looking at Chen Yuan, Jiang Wanyi said mockingly,

"Show me how strict you can be. You two get along so well, and she might not listen to me in the future. I’m actually quite curious to see how you’d handle her."

Finishing his last bite of noodles, Chen Yuan wiped his mouth.

Catching her completely off guard, he reached out and pinched her waist.

"Ah—"

Jiang Wanyi’s expression broke. "Let go, that tickles!"

"So? Am I a strict person or not?"

"Yes, yes, you are! Now let go!"

Chen Yuan let go. Jiang Wanyi rubbed the soft flesh on her waist with a resentful look.

"You only dare to mess with me like this. I’d like to see you try that on your daughter."

"Of course not. With her, I’d use reason and appeal to her emotions, explaining things patiently."

"I see you’re taking me less and less seriously."

Jiang Wanyi launched a counterattack. This time, she didn’t pinch Chen Yuan’s waist, but reached for his thigh instead.

’Holy shit!’

’I got pinched there a lot as a kid. I know all too well how much it hurts to get your thigh pinched.’

He scrambled to his feet, grabbed Jiang Wanyi’s hand, and in a swift move, swept her up into a princess carry.

"Ah—"

Her body suddenly off balance, Jiang Wanyi shrieked and instinctively threw her arms around Chen Yuan’s neck, her heart instantly starting to pound.

She’d never imagined that at her age, someone would carry her in their arms like this.

Chen Yuan carried her to the bedroom and over to the bed.

In that moment, their eyes met. Jiang Wanyi’s face flushed and her heart raced. She avoided Chen Yuan’s gaze, not daring to look at him.

In the quiet room, the intimate atmosphere heated up rapidly.

It wasn’t just Jiang Wanyi whose heart was pounding; Chen Yuan also felt something strange, his own thoughts in turmoil.

Right then, Jiang Wanyi seemed more like a shy young girl, making it impossible for him to calm his racing heart.

"You’re so annoying! Stop messing around and put me down."

Gently, Chen Yuan laid Jiang Wanyi on the bed, then scurried away in a flash.

"I’m heading out, bye!"

THUMP, THUMP, THUMP!

Jiang Wanyi’s heart pounded like thunder after a storm; she could even hear it herself.

She had never felt anything like this before. ’So this is what it feels like to be held in someone’s arms.’

By the time Jiang Wanyi had straightened her hair and nightgown and come out of the room, Chen Yuan was already standing outside the front door.

"I’m off, bye!"

Chen Yuan was embarrassed too. He shut the door and made a quick getaway.

’You virgin! Getting cold feet at the critical moment!’

Jiang Wanyi was both annoyed and amused. She adjusted her lingerie, so exasperated she didn’t know what to say.

’How is that stinky brat so strong? I’m a whole 132 pounds, and he just picked me right up—’

At that moment, neither of them noticed that their relationship had already reached this stage—a point where they could have intimate physical contact.

Like a spring rain, it nourished things in silence.

Just then, Jiang Wanyi saw the shirt she had bought for Chen Yuan.

"Why did he leave wearing his own clothes again!"

She muttered to herself, grabbed the clothes, and immediately chased after him.
