774 Eased Off

***************

CHAPTER 774

His proposal was something she felt she could die for even though she may not have been initially prepared to get married so soon.

Still, hearing him ask honestly, Chen’an felt her heart swell with both pride and joy to the point of no return.

He proposed. Ren, whom she barely knew, proposed.

She was left to wonder if the problem of the kidnapping had left a strong urge on him that pushed him to this length.

Regardless, who was she to complain about anything when all she ever wanted was him all along?

“Chenny, would you marry me, baby?”

Her eyes dazzled. This was literally one of the happiest days of her life.

.....

It wasn’t the most perfect, yet she found it relatively cute and breathtaking.

“Ren.”

“Yes, darling?” Her smile broadened as she reached up to caress his face.

Instinctively, he pressed his face into her palm while maintaining eye contact with him.

“I love you, Ren. Honestly speaking, I never thought this day would come soon.”

“But it did, didn’t it?” She blinked. As much as she could say yes and get the better part of this, she wished to enjoy her time and slow down this moment.

“Or do you not want to get married to me?” Ren pouted. To him, she may not have found him a worthy candidate to spend her life with and if that were so, he would let her be.

Perhaps he was the one who mistook things between them.

“No silly. Why wouldn’t I?”

“But you’re not answering.”

“Because I want to capture this moment forever.” Her gaze softened as she lowered his head down to hers.

“Hehhe. You should know, if I decide to go all in, I will. Including showering you with my love, giving you my hard d*ck whenever you want and helping you relive this moment any time you want.”

Tears of joy welled up in her eyes and before she knew it, she was nodding her answer.

“Yes. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes! I would marry you!”

“Hahhaa. That’s a lot of yes,” Ren chuckled. “But I am glad you are that eager to be with me.”

He pulled her closer to him and planted a sweet kiss on her lips. Eagerly, Chen’an took the bull by the horn, feeding him with way more kisses than he could have anticipated.

“Hmmm...”

His hands flew down to her butt, giving it a gentle squeeze as his need for her grew and poked through his trousers.

She held his face in her hands, ensuring his eyes never left hers as she whispered cutely to him, “I’m ready. I want you, Ren. Make love to me so much today. Make me miss not having you these past days.”

“Your wish is my command wifey. Who knows I may knock you up while we are at it.”

Her eyes went round. She quickly placed a hand on his chest preventing him from kissing her.

“I love the sex part but let’s take it easy on the knocking up, shall we?”

“Whatever you say, princess. Just know I would take you up on your word and make love to you all day.”

“Aye, let’s celebrate.”

“Cheers, baby love. Soon I will be taking you to see my mum.”

Her eyes went wide but before she could let her shock fully register, his lips claimed hers once more.

“No time to space out. Worry about that later.”

*******

Thanks to the law finally catching up with her grand aunties, Li Jing felt a bit safe and happy.

However, she knew it would be short should Chairman Zhang happen to take the lead and hurt her husband.

“Lifen, what can I do to ensure Ye Cheng is safe at all times? He is treading a dangerous zone with that man,” she explained to her friend over the phone.

It was a Saturday and since Ye Cheng stepped out of the house that morning for a business meeting, she had been having a strong gut feeling about things.

“Do not worry your pretty head. You know Ye Cheng better and he has Yi Wang Lei’s protection amongst others.”

“Sure.”

She pried the curtains open from where she stood by the window and gazed out at the compound.

“No matter what is plaguing you on the inside, always remember, you two would be fine. I would be abnormal for the two of you not to have such thoughts with everything going on in your lives.”

“You are right. Maybe I am being paranoid.”

“Wow, did the heavens smile down on Li Jing today? You are agreeing with everything I am saying,” Yi Lifen teased.

“I do not have the strength to argue. Besides, I know it is just me who is being paranoid maybe. I hope though.”

She released a deep sigh and rubbed her stomach. “Fen Fen.”

“Yes, dear?”

“What do you have to say about me being pregnant.”

Yin Lifen’s eyes went round. Pregnant! That was definitely something everyone close to her wanted to see.

“Li Jing, do not tell me you already are..”

“Hold your horses, Li Jing cut in. I personally do not think this is a good time,” she breathed sharply, allowing her lashes to flutter ever so lightly.

“Li Jing, do not say that. If a child comes, then it is a blessing. Now tell me, are you pregnant?” Even if she wished to sound stern to her baby, her voice betrayed her m showing her care and glee.

“You sure are eager like the rest of them. Do not get your hopes up. I am not pregnant.”

“But you are not on the pill either, right?”

Li Jing paused briefly. She had not properly considered it but she stopped taking pills a while now.

“Hm, no.”

“Great. It would be easier for Ye Cheng to get you pregnant then.”

She shook her head. Things had become laughable and annoying so much so, she was tempted to ask them for a child as well.

Pregnancy came with its own quirks. One she wasn’t sure her current situation would carry.

“I cannot wait for when you get married and give birth to a child for me,” Li Jing retorted to Yin Lifen’s shock.

“Hahhaa, unlike you, I am eager for one as soon as I get married.”

She rolled her eyes at her friend. Right now, she was a lost cause. “Whatever.”

BURR!

Li Jing peeled the phone from her ear and peered at the screen. The second she saw the caller, her brows creased slightly.

“Fen Fen, let’s talk later. I have another call.”

“Sure.”

Immediately Yin Lifen ended the call, Li Jing wasted no time in answering the next.

Due to the recent happenings in addition to the kidnapping incident, she lost focus of her plans to track things with her foster father.

“Finally, something to take my mind off the current trouble,” Li Jing muttered.

“Hello, good day ma’am,” the familiar voice of her contact rang out.

She relaxed the muscles around her eyes and breathed calmly. It was just the start. No matter what the news was, she was sure she could take it.

“Good day. It’s been a while. Tell me, what news have you?”
