Chapter 1506: Chapter 1504: Feeling Guilty

Ye Xin was slightly startled, looking at Yang Chen.

Yang Chen smiled and said, "It will get better in the future."

Ye Xin nodded slightly and walked closer to Yang Chen.

The distance was so close that Yang Chen could clearly see Ye Xin’s long eyelashes, quivering slightly with each blink.

Yang Chen’s heart couldn’t help but quiver too.

"I believe you!" Ye Xin exhaled gently.

After speaking, Ye Xin opened her arms and gave Yang Chen a hug.

Yang Chen felt a warm, jade-like body pressed against his chest, and couldn’t help but embrace back.

At the same time, his heart began to pound uncontrollably.

Before Yang Chen could fully savor the warmth of her body, Ye Xin playfully wriggled out of his embrace, giggling as she said, "Now, hurry and get some rest! We have to visit Elder Zhuo early tomorrow!"

Saying this, Ye Xin hurried up the stairs, as if afraid Yang Chen would devour her.

Yang Chen watched Ye Xin’s retreating figure, feeling quite helpless.

This girl, she just stirred my feelings and then turned away, truly irresponsible!

Yang Chen touched his beating heart, shook his head helplessly, "It seems... I’m wrapped around her finger for life!"

With a sigh of resignation, Yang Chen could only roll back into his small room to sleep...

That night... dreams came endlessly...

The next morning.

After waking up, Yang Chen didn’t rush to get out of bed but leaned against the headboard in a daze.

He wanted to smoke, but after thinking about how long he had quit, he decided against it.

However, he felt frustrated.

He was frustrated because he hadn’t had a dream like last night’s in a long time.

A dream with such intense scenes, isn’t that something for when you’re sixteen or seventeen?

And now...

He awkwardly lifted the quilt for a peek, sighed heavily, and covered himself again.

"I’m feeling quite energetic lately!" Yang Chen sighed.

After a while, seeing that he still couldn’t calm down, Yang Chen could only get up and take a cold shower in the bathroom.

The icy water helped clear his mind, and his anger dissipated.

Drying himself off and getting dressed, Yang Chen walked out of his room, stretched his body, and saw Ye Xin sitting on the sofa sipping tea, looking at him with a strange expression.

"What’s up?" Yang Chen immediately became vigilant and asked.

Ye Xin didn’t speak, only stared at Yang Chen with wide eyes.

Yang Chen felt uneasy under her gaze.

"What is it? Why are you looking at me like that?" Yang Chen asked again.

Ye Xin still didn’t speak.

Yang Chen became anxious, "Come on! What’s with that look?"

Seeing Yang Chen couldn’t hold back anymore, Ye Xin slowly spoke, "I didn’t say anything, so why are you feeling guilty?"

"Guilty? Me?" Yang Chen said with wide eyes, confidently, "When was I ever guilty?"

"You know very well if you are guilty! If you don’t have a guilty conscience, you won’t feel haunted!" Ye Xin snorted coldly and stood up to walk outside.

Yang Chen was taken aback, then chased after her, explaining, "No! Why would I feel guilty? What wrong did I do? I’ve been at home all night!"

Ye Xin didn’t answer him and just kept walking.

Yang Chen was at his wit’s end.

"Auntie, what’s wrong? At least say something!" Yang Chen pleaded anxiously.

Ye Xin said coldly, "You know what you did!"

"I really didn’t do anything!" Yang Chen felt genuinely troubled.

"Haha!" Ye Xin couldn’t hold it in anymore and burst out laughing, covering her mouth.

Yang Chen watched Ye Xin laughing so hard that she bent over, shaking all over, feeling exasperated.

"Alright! I’m done teasing you!" Ye Xin laughed so hard tears almost came out.

Yang Chen felt very frustrated.

"Why make such a face? It’s your fault for looking so guilty as soon as you saw me, who knows what you dreamt about last night!" Ye Xin said with a laugh, seeing Yang Chen’s frustrated expression.

Yang Chen felt very frustrated, "What could I have done? I went to sleep right away, did nothing, and then woke up to you staring at me, making me uneasy."

"If there’s nothing on your mind, then why feel guilty?" Ye Xin snorted.

Yang Chen helplessly said, "If you woke up in the morning to find me staring at you like that, you’d feel uneasy too!"

"No, I wouldn’t!" Ye Xin stuck out her tongue.

Yang Chen realized that reasoning with women means you’re always wrong.

So he simply stopped arguing, accompanying Ye Xin for a stroll around the neighborhood.

After returning, Yang Chen began preparing breakfast for everyone.

Yang Chen loved cooking, enjoying the whole process.

He liked a slow-paced life, a leisurely rhythm.

Because the previous pace was too fast, living every day as if it were the last, always in a state of urgency. So he preferred to enjoy this process, making him feel truly alive.

Living is a beautiful thing.

You can enjoy a leisurely chat over tea and meals, enjoy the warmth of family.

Having prepared the meal and watching everyone sit at the table to eat, Yang Chen felt this was fulfillment, the greatest fulfillment, and the life he always wanted.

After breakfast, the director hurried off to the orphanage.

In his eyes, nothing is more important than work.

Chen Siyan naturally went to work, and Wang Ming escorted her.

As for Set and Miehun, they went off to handle their preparations.

Ye Xin and Yang Chen cleaned up a bit and drove to the defense area.

With a pass, they weren’t stopped at the entrance, directly entering the high-end residential area.

Yang Chen easily found Elder Zhuo’s courtyard, spotting him practicing Tai Chi from afar.

Seeing Yang Chen get out of the car, Elder Zhuo immediately finished his practice.

"Xiaochen! Xiaoxin! What brings you here!" Elder Zhuo exclaimed joyfully.

Yang Chen walked over with a smile, placing the fruit he was carrying on the table in the courtyard, "Just got back from abroad, came to see you."

"Oh, oh!" Elder Zhuo nodded, he knew about Yang Chen’s mission.

"Is everything handled over there?" Elder Zhuo asked.

Yang Chen nodded, "Everything’s resolved, and I brought back quite a few good things."

"That’s good! That’s good!" Elder Zhuo said with relief, "The important thing is your safety! Your safety is our greatest treasure!"

Yang Chen chuckled, supporting Elder Zhuo into the house.

In fact, Elder Zhuo was in good health and didn’t need Yang Chen’s help, but to show filial respect, Yang Chen was willing to support him. Elder Zhuo was also happy to enjoy Yang Chen’s care, feeling warm inside.

Back inside, Yang Chen noticed many changes in the house, including a few more fish tanks full of fish.

Yang Chen asked in surprise, "Uncle Zhuo, you’ve started keeping fish now!"

"Yes!" Elder Zhuo said excitedly, "I just started recently. Look at this tank, it has tropical fish, and I planted the aquatic plants myself, with a clean water filtration system. And this one, the Arowana, isn’t it beautiful? Over here, there are a few koi, just for fun."

He said it’s just for fun, but Yang Chen could tell these things were quite valuable!
