A single stone stirred up a thousand ripples!
As the Ye Xuan family left, the cultural performance also came to an end. Everyone stared in a daze at the receding figures of the family, lost in thought, their minds filled with unknown emotions.
Ye Pengfei and Chen Xiaowan looked at their son, their hearts filled with contentment. With a son like this, what more could they ask for in life?
This meal was undoubtedly the most satisfying Ye Pengfei had ever eaten, and there was no "almost" about it!
"By the way, Mom and Dad, you'll be on vacation starting tomorrow, right?"
Ye Xuan thought of something and said to his parents.
"Yes."
Chen Xiaowan nodded, and even Ye Pengfei paused to look at his son.
Seeing this, Ye Xuan smiled slightly and then glanced at Luo Tianyi. "Mom and Dad, why don't we go on a trip? There are still several days until the New Year."
"A trip?"
Ye Pengfei's eyes gleamed upon hearing this. He hadn't traveled in a long time. Now that his son was so outstanding and no longer required his constant worry, a trip seemed like a good idea. "Where do you want to go?"
"How about... we go to the tourist resort, the Duchy of Best, then."
Ye Xuan, who had already made plans, said this. After all, the Duchy of Best was his territory, which he had spent a staggering 300 billion on. He certainly wanted to visit it.
"The Duchy of Best?"
Hearing Ye Xuan's words, Ye Pengfei and Chen Xiaowan were taken aback. It was a famous tourist destination abroad. It was said that a trip to the Duchy of Best would cost at least a hundred thousand.
Before, they would never have even considered such a thing. But now, it was different. Their son was so successful, they could consider more than just a hundred thousand, even a much larger sum.
"That's a wonderful place."
Chen Xiaowan echoed her son's sentiments, adding, "It's said that the average income there is much higher than in our country."
"Many of its tourist attractions are even featured in textbooks."
After some discussion, the family decided to take their seven-month-old triplets, Sanmengbao, on an international trip. Luo Tianyi's eyes sparkled with anticipation.
After dinner, Chen Xiaowan and Ye Pengfei promptly took the triplets to their room, as if someone might snatch them away.
Back in their room, Luo Tianyi reflected on the day's events, feeling as though she were in a dream. They had gotten their marriage certificate just like that, becoming legal spouses and each other's most important person.
After their evening ablutions, they held each other close.
Feeling each other's warmth, time flowed by, serene and beautiful.
"Wife, how about I tell you a story, okay?"
As he spoke, Ye Xuan gently caressed Luo Tianyi's abdomen, where their child, who would soon join them in this world, was growing.
A mixture of trepidation and anticipation filled him.
"A story?"
Hearing him offer to tell her a story again, Luo Tianyi's cheeks flushed slightly, but she didn't refuse. "Okay."
The reason she agreed so readily was that she deeply cherished this feeling.
"What story should I tell? Let me think."
With his beloved in his arms, he inhaled the unique scent of Luo Tianyi, tinged with a hint of milk, which was delightful. His mind raced, and then he had an idea.
"Legend has it that on their journey to the West, Tang Sanzang and his disciples were traveling. One day, Tang Sanzang felt hungry and said, 'Wukong, your master is hungry. Go and beg for some alms.' Wukong returned quickly, holding only a few cucumbers."
"'Where have we arrived?' Tang Sanzang asked. 'Wukong replied, 'The surrounding area for a hundred miles is all cucumber fields. I don't know where we are!'"
He paused, allowing Luo Tianyi time to visualize the scene in her mind. Then, a faint smile curved his lips. "'Tang Sanzang said, 'Help me up. We must have arrived at the Women's Kingdom!'"
Listening to his indecent and mischievous tale, Luo Tianyi gave him a playful glare, her eyes sparkling. *Cucumber fields for a hundred miles? The Women's Kingdom? Is this guy going crazy? Hmph, what am I thinking? That scoundrel is too shameless. Cucumber fields and the Women's Kingdom? What is he implying? Could those cucumber fields for a hundred miles have some other purpose?*
The more she thought about it, the more she realized how cunning and utterly wicked her man was. With a soft jolt, Luo Tianyi twisted his ribcage by a hundred and eighty degrees with her small hand, though for Ye Xuan, it was no more than a tickle.
He affectionately pinched his wife's face, which was as delicate as a peeled egg, and smiled. "What's wrong, wife? Have you thought of something?"
Luo Tianyi: "Uh..."
"Pfft! Thought of you, you big-headed ghost! What are you thinking about?"
"When you say that, doesn't your conscience hurt at all?"
Luo Tianyi glared at him, but then her eyes widened because the "big pig's trotters" had accurately pinpointed her conscience. Ye Xuan said earnestly, "My conscience? It doesn't hurt at all."
"You... Hmph~"
Luo Tianyi let out a soft huff and turned her head away, pretending to ignore the scoundrel.
"Hehe, alright, I'll tell you another story."
Ye Xuan toyed with his wife's conscience, completely unbothered by her rolling eyes. He thought for a moment and then said, "In the delivery room, a baby was born and started laughing heartily. The attending nurse was very surprised. They gathered around to observe and found the baby's fist clenched tightly. When they opened it, they discovered a contraceptive pill..."
"...At that moment, the infant laughed and said, 'Damn it, you want to kill me? No way!'"
Luo Tianyi: "!!!"
*Pfft~*
Luo Tianyi, upon realizing what had happened, burst into laughter, almost choking. Her mind conjured an image of the delivery room, the nurse, and the baby's clenched fist revealing a contraceptive pill, especially the infant's final words, which struck her as hilariously funny.
However, realizing she had been amused by him again, she feigned a displeased huff, as if it weren't funny at all. Ye Xuan found her behavior endearing, thinking how increasingly cute she was becoming.
Seizing the moment, Ye Xuan launched into another wicked story. "An ant and an elephant, after three years of courtship, finally got married. They were expected to be deeply in love, but they divorced within three days. They came to court together. The judge asked them why they were divorcing, if there were problems with their relationship, and if it could be mended?"
"The ant then said, 'There's no way to mend it. It takes me several tens of minutes to climb onto him for the wedding. By the time I get to the top, I'm exhausted. I want a divorce.'"
"...The elephant also said with great dissatisfaction, 'I want a divorce too. After finally climbing to my eye level, I still have to find a magnifying glass to see her. And if I'm not careful, she might get blown away. Basic physiological needs can't be met. We must divorce.'"
Another story. A scene flashed through Luo Tianyi's mind: an ant marrying an elephant, and discussing physiological needs. Moreover, the ant was female, meaning... Thinking of this, Luo Tianyi's face turned scarlet. *That big pervert, how can he be like this?*
