After entering the villa, Ye Xuan noticed that the lights in the first-floor living room were still on, and a young woman in pajamas was leaning on the sofa watching TV.

No need to guess, this woman was naturally the villa's mistress, Lin Tong.

"Oh? Honey, why aren't you asleep yet at this late hour?" Ye Xuan walked over and curiously asked.

Lin Tong shifted her gaze and glanced at Ye Xuan.

Seeing him walk in with Liu Ying, she picked up the remote and casually turned off the TV, speaking with plain words but a hint of concern, "I was waiting for you to come back. Is Wanwan okay?"

She already knew about Murong Wanwan's kidnapping, and naturally guessed that Ye Xuan went to rescue Murong Wanwan.

At this juncture, she naturally couldn't sleep, and had been waiting in the living room for Ye Xuan to return. This waiting lasted until midnight at twelve!

"It's okay now, Wanwan is safe, and I've dealt with the culprits!"

Ye Xuan chuckled, casually brushing over the details as he didn't want Lin Tong to worry about the specifics.

"Good that you're back."

Lin Tong gave Ye Xuan a deep look; she knew he was surely hiding the thrilling part, so she didn't expose him, just nodded calmly.

After a pause, she seemed a bit uneasy, and asked in a casual manner, "And you? Did you get injured?"

"Haha, of course not, your husband is invincible. Those small fry can't possibly hurt me!"

Ye Xuan smiled casually, his relaxed expression eased Lin Tong's worried heart a little.

However, his tone changed next with a bit of mischievousness, "Hehe, the only one who can hurt me is you, my dear wife!"

At this, Lin Tong finally understood, and immediately glared at Ye Xuan angrily, "You're so improper, always thinking about such unhealthy things, I can't be bothered with you!"

With a light hum, Lin Tong got up from the sofa and walked upstairs without looking back.

"Ahem! Well... Big-breasted girl, I'm heading upstairs to sleep first, you should go to sleep early too."

Seeing Lin Tong get up and leave, Ye Xuan cleared his throat, bid farewell to Liu Ying, and hurriedly chased upstairs excitedly.

"Such a hasty guy, am I really so unattractive to you?"

Liu Ying murmured discontentedly under her breath as she headed to her own room.

Ye Xuan followed Lin Tong all the way to the master bedroom on the fourth floor, his eyes rolling with mischief.

His roguish eyes scanned Lin Tong's delicate body, flickering with a mischievous gleam, eyeing her like a wolf preying on its catch, contemplating how to better devour her.

Lin Tong turned her head and looked at Ye Xuan vigilantly, clearly sensing his blatant ill intentions, knowing he was scheming to pull one over her again!

"I'm going to sleep; don't disturb me!"

Lin Tong warned Ye Xuan and quickly headed into the bedroom, wanting to shake him off.

How could Ye Xuan let her succeed?

With a quick movement, he blocked Lin Tong's path.

Grinning cheekily at her, Ye Xuan smiled and said, "Honey, you can't go to sleep alone! Of course, we sleep together!"

"Sleep your big head! I'm not sleeping with you; move aside."

Lin Tong hummed arrogantly, "You smell like a stinky fox, still want to sleep with me? Go sleep on the floor!"

"What stinky fox smell? This is clearly the smell of a man!"

Ye Xuan sniffed his sleeve and chuckled, "If you don't like it, I can take a bath."

"Bathing won't wash away all that stench! Move, I don't want you sleeping with me." Lin Tong hmphed.

"Honey, you really don't want to sleep with me?" Ye Xuan squinted his eyes, asked mischievously.

Lin Tong's heart lurched, knowing this pervert might force his way, she softened her tone, "Then quickly take a bath, don't think about sleeping with me if you're not clean."

At this moment, she made up her mind that while Ye Xuan was bathing, she would lock the door and not give this rascal a chance to get in!

Ye Xuan's mouth curved upward, "Honey, why don't we take a bath together? We didn't get to bathe together yesterday, perfect to make up for it today."

"Humph, don't even think about it!"

Lin Tong refused decisively, "I'm not taking a bath with you, this bad guy. Besides, I've already bathed, if anyone needs to bathe, it's you."

She knew agreeing to this rascal's unreasonable request would be sending herself into the fire, who knows how she'd be tortured?

"Take a bath once, take a bath again! I love bathing, skin so good, haven't you heard this song before?" Ye Xuan shamelessly asked.

"Haven't heard it!"

Lin Tong kept a stern face, "Stay away from me, stop bothering me."

"Well? Your courage is growing, daring to kick your husband out? Today you'll bathe, whether you want to or not, no negotiating," Ye Xuan coldly chuckled, "I have to teach you a lesson!"

Without acknowledging Lin Tong's protests, Ye Xuan suddenly picked her up and headed straight to the bathroom.

What followed came naturally!

After carrying Lin Tong into the bathroom, Ye Xuan stripped himself bare and began undressing Lin Tong, and then happily started their couple bathing.

This bath lasted over an hour until Lin Tong was breathless and worn out, only then did Ye Xuan stop!

The joyful couple bath ended here.

"Honey, are you really ready to marry me?"

Holding onto Lin Tong's flawless body, quietly lying in the bathtub, Ye Xuan suddenly whispered gently in her ear.

At these words, Lin Tong's originally clear eyes suddenly had a hint of confusion, an indescribable emotion arose within!

She couldn't quite describe how she felt at the moment, logically, she should be happy since Ye Xuan is someone she likes.

Besides, they've already registered for marriage, hosting a wedding is only natural.

Yet she felt anxious and uneasy, unrelated to external economic conditions, as for her and Ye Xuan, there were no economic problems post-wedding!

She worried if their feelings would stay intact, would Ye Xuan treat her as well as before marriage?

What if Ye Xuan got tired of being with her and kicked her aside, what then?

Concerned about Ye Xuan possibly being seduced by other women, worried she might not be a good wife...

During their relationship over the months, Lin Tong never worried about these things, but now facing marriage, she unknowingly had apprehensions.

Is this what's known as pre-wedding jitters?
