The protagonist stole my spiritual root? Hey, heroine, give birth to me!

“Alright, then I’ll go to Zhoudu with you.” Liu Yanxin finally nodded.

"Yay!" Jin Ruoyan jumped up happily. "Then I'll go tell my husband right now!"

After saying that, Jin Ruoyan hurriedly ran out of the room.

Watching Jin Ruoyan's retreating figure, Liu Yanxin sighed, her heart filled with mixed emotions. She didn't know if her decision was right or wrong, but there was no other way now.

After a while, Jin Ruoyan ran back excitedly and told Liu Yanxin that Chen Xuan had agreed to take her with him and that she should be prepared that she might not be able to return to Yanyu City for a long time.

"Okay, I understand. Thank you, Ruoyan."

"No, I don't want to leave my home, Yanxin either!" Jin Ruoyan smiled indifferently and invited Liu Yanxin to stay and sleep.

Liu Yanxin readily agreed, but since Jin Ruoyan was heavily pregnant, she didn't sleep with her. Instead, she slept in her own room while Chen Xuan slept in the guest room.

"Well... alright, it's just a place to rest, I won't argue with you about it!"

"Uh-huh!"

After chatting for a while longer, Jin Ruoyan left.

……

"Husband, it's all settled. From now on, Ruoyan will be with us too!" Jin Ruoyan gestured to Chen Xuan.

"Yes, my Ruoyan is amazing."

“Then, my husband… now that we have such a good opportunity, why don’t you just give Yanxin to…!” Jin Ruoyan made another gesture.

"Ahem! Ruoyan, what are you saying! I was just..."

"Alright, alright, I know you're a gentleman, but that won't work on me!" Jin Ruoyan put her hands in front of her chest and made an X.

"What?"

"Hmph, you still have the nerve to ask why? Back then, you didn't treat me like this at all. Why are you so good to Yanxin?!"

"..."

"Say it!"

Chen Xuan smiled awkwardly, unsure how to respond.

"Back then, I couldn't help but treat you like that because I thought you were cute, and didn't I apologize to you?" Chen Xuan explained.

"Then, what about Yanxin? She's cute too!" Jin Ruoyan persisted.

"That's precisely the difference between the two of you. You know, only someone who really likes something can't wait to do it... right?" Chen Xuan explained with a smile.

"Hmph, who knows what you're thinking? Anyway, I don't care, tonight you have to share a room with Yanxin!" Jin Ruoyan threw a tantrum.

"Alright, alright, how could I disobey my wife's orders?" Chen Xuan nodded helplessly in agreement.

Jin Ruoyan's anger turned to joy. She grabbed Chen Xuan's arm and said with a grin, "That's more like it!"

……

In the stillness of the night, Liu Yanxin lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep. Her mind was filled with Chen Xuan's image; the thought of traveling to Zhoudu with him filled her with both nervousness and anticipation.

Just then, the door was gently pushed open, and a familiar figure walked in.

"Yanxin, are you asleep?" The person who came was Chen Xuan.

"I...I'm not asleep yet, is something wrong?" Liu Yanxin answered nervously.

"Ruoyan asked me to come and keep you company. I was worried you'd be scared alone at night, so I came to check on you," Chen Xuan said gently.

"Oh? Is that so? Well then, I'll have to trouble you, senior brother." Liu Yanxin lowered her head, not daring to look Chen Xuan in the eye, nor did she expose his excuse.

"Don't mention it, we're friends." Chen Xuan smiled and sat down on the edge of the bed.

Liu Yan felt her heart beating faster and faster. She secretly glanced at Chen Xuan and found him staring at her, which made her heart beat even faster.

"Yanxin, what's wrong? Why is your face so red?" Chen Xuan asked with concern.

"No, it's nothing, maybe it's just a bit hot," Liu Yan hurriedly explained.

"Are you hot? Shall I open the window a little for you?" Chen Xuan got up, walked to the window, and opened it.

A gentle night breeze blew in, taking away the stuffiness in the room and calming Liu Yanxin's mood considerably.

"Yanxin, do you know? Actually, I've always liked you." Chen Xuan suddenly said.

Liu Yanxin suddenly raised her head and looked at Chen Xuan with a shocked expression.

"I...I don't know..." Liu Yanxin was somewhat at a loss.

"I know you've always treated me like a senior brother, but is there really only the feeling of being senior and junior siblings between us?" Chen Xuan stared intently at Liu Yanxin, his tone sincere.

Liu Yan thought for a moment, then shook her head.

"Yanxin, I know you still have concerns, but please believe me, I truly love you, and I don't want to miss you again." Chen Xuan held Liu Yanxin's hand and confessed his love.

"Thump, thump!" Liu Yanxin's heart suddenly started racing. Her cheeks grew hotter and hotter, and she lowered her head shyly, not daring to look at Chen Xuan anymore.

At this moment, Chen Xuan's image was almost entirely in her mind. She felt as if she had fallen in love with Chen Xuan, but as soon as this thought appeared, she immediately denied it.

"No, no, I can't fall in love with him. He's Ruoyan's husband. I can't take him from her!" Liu Yanxin secretly warned herself.

However, feelings cannot be controlled at will. The more Liu Yanxin tried to suppress her feelings, the more uncomfortable she felt, to the point that she felt breathless.

"Senior Brother Chen, I... I'm going to rest now. If you have nothing else to do, please leave." Finally, Liu Yanxin broke the silence and said softly.

"So, Yanxin, what's your answer? Could it be that you..."

"Stop talking! Senior Brother Chen, you should think carefully about your junior brother. I am...!"

"You're still avoiding my questions."

"I...I don't like you, please leave!"

After saying this, Liu Yanxin's face was already covered in tears. She didn't want to cry in front of Chen Xuan, but emotions are something she couldn't control.

“In that case…” Chen Xuan turned around and prepared to leave.

Liu Yanxin also lowered her head in pain, secretly shedding tears.

"Actually, I was just kidding you."

"Then I hope Senior Brother Chen won't tease me like that again."

Chen Xuan didn't say anything, but walked straight to Liu Yanxin and pulled her into his arms.

"What I mean is, I'm not leaving."

"Ah!" Liu Yan exclaimed in surprise, trying to break free from Chen Xuan's embrace, but found that his strength was surprisingly great and she could not break free at all.

"What, what are you going to do?" Liu Yanxin asked in a panic.

Chen Xuan remained silent, simply gazing at Liu Yanxin before slowly lowering his head and kissing her lips.

Liu Yanxin's eyes widened suddenly, wanting to resist, but she found her body gradually softening, and she involuntarily responded to Chen Xuan's kiss.

Well, after the emotional highs and lows, ( ) is the most moving. Qin Feng, you won't see it, hehehe!

As the saying goes: Tender buds gently unfurl, their meaning yet to be revealed; Emerald skirts lightly dance amidst the blue waves.
