My Dangerous Billionaire Husband

Zhou Yao saw that she had lowered her eyelids, so he asked, “What’s on your mind?”

“Nothing,” Leng Zhiyuan shook her head.

Zhou Yao smiled dotingly, then stretched out his long arms to hug her waist and laid down with her.

“I’m not done with the bells yet…” she was about to get up.

Zhou Yao held her down. “Don’t worry about it. We’ll work on it tomorrow. There’s plenty of time. It’s already dawn. It’s time to sleep.”

Leng Zhiyuan looked down and stopped insisting.

Zhou Yao reached out his hand for her little face. He gently caressed the skin on her face and leaned forward to kiss her little nose. He said in a low voice, “Honey, the doctor said that you had a slight contraction. Did you feel it?”

Leng Zhiyuan’s expression did not change. She asked, “What’s a contraction?”

“It’s when your lower area aches, like when you’re about to go in labor…”

“No.”

Zhou Yao held her little face and looked into her eyes with seriousness, “Are you telling the truth?”

“What do you mean?” She met his gaze. “Is there something wrong with my body? Is it dangerous for me to give birth?…”

“Shh, don’t talk nonsense!” Zhou Yao interrupted her. Since she did not feel anything, he would refrain from telling her the truth. He did not want her to feel stressed.

This ruled out the second case the doctor mentioned, but Zhou Yao was still heavy-hearted. She could give birth prematurely at any time…

In fact, there was no good or bad distinction between the first case and the second case in Zhou Yao’s mind. If it was the second case, he could negotiate with Scorpion. Scorpion would help her through the pregnancy. Obviously, Scorpion wouldn’t agree so easily. Scorpian wanted two things very badly at the moment: the first was Zhou Yao’s corpse, the second was to take Leng Zhiyuan away.

Both were considered the worst for Zhou Yao. It may be that they were destined to be separated.

The first case is just as bad. Her body would be in a terrible state. He felt as if a hand had grabbed his throat, suffocating him.

Leng Zhiyuan saw that the man had stopped talking. She opened her eyes and looked at him. She saw him rubbing against her nose with a deep frown. She didn’t know what he was thinking about.

She slowly reached out her small hand and used her index finger to smooth out the wrinkles between his brows.

Zhou Yao opened his eyes and saw the docile look of the woman.

Suddenly, he was in a good mood again. It was as if his empty heart had been filled. He felt enriched and satisfied. The woman he loved had returned to his arms and was now by his side.

What could be more delightful than her companionship?

“Honey…” Zhou Yao leaned down and kissed her red lips with infatuation.

He pecked her delicate lips lightly.

Leng Zhiyuan clenched his shirt tightly with her two small hands, her eyes widened.

Zhou Yao thought her reaction was funny. She was confused and innocent, but her cheeks turned pink. Although she had lost her memory, her body reacted to his moves and gave the most authentic response.

Looking at her watery and clear eyes, he smiled and moved away from her red lips. “Remember to close your eyes next time. Your face really makes me want to… devour you.”

He widened his mouth to scare her.

Leng Zhiyuan felt her ears burning. She reached out to push him away and then turned around.

“Honey, are you shy?” He hugged her from behind.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door. “Major General.”

It was Xiao Zhi’s voice.

Zhou Yao kissed her cheek and then let go of her. He covered her with the blanket and whispered, “It’s a mess outside right now, so don’t go running around. Stay here. I have to attend to something. You get some sleep.”

“Mmm,” Leng Zhiyuan nodded.

Zhou Yao got off the bed and left.

It was not until the door closed that Leng Zhiyuan slowly opened her eyes. She sat up and bent over to open the drawers by the bed. She took out the unfinished small bracelet and little bells.

He said that there was plenty of time, but she did not have much time left.

She had to finish this small bracelet.

…

Xiao Zhi stood outside the door. Zhou Yao looked at him and asked, “Did something happen with the negotiation?”

Xiao Zhi shook his head. “No, the negotiation is still going on. However, the islanders are stubborn, they are determined to do to themselves whatever happens to Scorpian. Our forces are ready for combat.”

Zhou Yao nodded. Since the islanders were so faithful to Scorpion, war and death were inevitable.

“Major General, there’s something else.”

“What?”

“Han Xuan is here.”

Zhou Yao’s expression changed. “Why is she here?”

“Major General, you haven’t paid attention to her for the past six months. She probably guessed what was going on. She might have heard some news, so she came over. She said she wants to see you.”

Zhou Yao’s expression was calm. “Okay, it’s about time that we meet.”

…

In a room, Zhou Yao walked in and Xiao Zhi closed the door.

Han Xuan was sitting in a wheelchair. She had been living in fear for the past six months, so her qi and blood flow were in poor condition. The long-term depression and suspicion had made her eyes dim and her face sallow.

“Big Brother Zhou, you’re finally willing to see me.” Han Xuan was excited to see Zhou Yao. She immediately pushed the wheelchair to Zhou Yao’s side and reached out to hug his arms.

Zhou Yao looked at her calmly and then pulled back his arms coldly.

With her empty hands, Han Xuan shivered for a moment and then took a deep breath. “Big Brother Zhou, I heard that Leng Zhiyuan is on this small island. You found her.”

“Yes.”

“How did you find her?”

“Someone picked up the letter you wrote to Scorpian. I made the person talk and found this place.

“Humph,” Han Xuan uttered bitterly. “Big Brother Zhou, six months ago, you suddenly treated me well and were willing to let me get close to you. I thought it’s because you’ve lost all hope in finding Leng Zhiyuan that you turned to me, I thought…”

“That’s what you thought. I never said that. I only said one thing. I will definitely find her,” Zhou Yao interrupted her.
