Chapter 1274: Chapter 1301: Torment and Disfigurement

Nianyang was stunned, and then she felt touched. She nudged his face and whispered, "So, to make me happy, you’d willingly mess yourself up and ruin your looks?"

Li Tingyan asked, as if seeking credit, "So, wifey, are you happy?"

"Not happy." Nianyang was very honest, "You’re too ugly; it affects my optic nerves."

Li Tingyan, "..."

What to do if the wife finds you ugly?

He decided to go for broke, lowered his head, and sealed her lips with his, kissing her until Nianyang almost ran out of breath before reluctantly parting.

"Even if I’m ugly, you still have to look at me." He said childishly, "You’ll have to look for a lifetime."

Nianyang rolled her eyes at him, seeing his appearance, she couldn’t help but rub his buzz-cut hair, her voice softening,

"Alright, you must not have eaten since you just got back. I’ll fry a dish for you. You go shave your beard first; I’ll put some frostbite cream on you tonight."

"Okay."

Li Tingyan readily agreed but, seeing Nianyang’s slim figure with a noticeably big belly, felt a bit alarmed and nervously reminded her to be careful.

Nianyang just said it’s okay. At her current stage, the baby was basically stable, and she could actually relax a bit more than in the early stages.

Although Li Tingyan hadn’t been with Nianyang for two months, he took the time every day to read up on her pregnancy stage, so he naturally knew she was doing quite well now.

Reassured, he went to shave. Just after showering, he had noticed that there was initially only a bar of soap in the bathroom. After Nianyang came, there were now all sorts of shampoos, body washes, aftershave lotions, body lotions, and men’s hairstyling products.

Li Tingyan felt that having his wife around made everything more refined somehow.

Nianyang specifically sealed all the window cracks in the house with newspaper to prevent the cooking smells from escaping, and then she headed to the kitchen to cook.

Li Tingyan had endured two months of hardship here, and he had lost quite a bit of weight.

Thinking of the cafeteria food here, Nianyang didn’t even want to take a second glance.

So she pulled out various ingredients and seasonings and made a delicate and sumptuous meal.

Stir-fried beef with green peppers, boiled meat slices with vermicelli, scrambled eggs with minced meat, braised chicken with mushrooms.

Three dishes and one soup, with a perfect balance of meat and vegetables, full of color, aroma, and flavor. As soon as Nianyang brought them to the table outside, Li Tingyan came in after finishing up in the bathroom.

The man had been eating plain food for two months; seeing such delicious dishes, he couldn’t help but gulp, "Wifey, you made so much, it smells so good."

Nianyang turned around with amusement. The man, after shaving, looked much cleaner and sharper, finally appearing a bit more human. She found him pleasing to the eye, wiped her hands, and said, "Go to the kitchen and serve yourself some rice."

Li Tingyan agreed immediately, but his hand couldn’t resist grabbing a piece of meat and stuffing it into his mouth. Nianyang was highly offended, giving him a little slap, "Are you a three-year-old child? You can’t just grab food with your hands; it’s very unhygienic!"

Li Tingyan’s eyes crinkled with laughter, "It’s fine. When I first went to work, if I was hungry at sea, I’d catch fish and grill it right there to eat."

Nianyang huffed, "Work is work, I don’t care about that. But at home, you need to pay attention for me, live life as exquisitely as possible, understand?"

After all, he’s a CEO. Even though he’s still in the tough development stage now, in a few years, he’ll definitely be the chairman of a sea merchant enterprise, his worth increased, times progressing—then he’ll truly be a kingly figure.

He can’t just ignore etiquette like this; in business battles in the future, he’d be laughed at.
