Exclusive Love: Pampered by the Scheming Tycoon-Chapter 409 - 410: Does He Want a Child?

That night, Lin Banxia slept soundly. Waking up in the middle of the night, she could still feel the warmth of the man beside her. How long had it been since she felt this?

In the past, when she was still his wife, every night she had fallen asleep in his arms, and every morning she woke up with traces of his lingering warmth.

It was a shame that those days had long since passed. Now, this moment of tenderness was nothing more than stolen indulgence.

Lin Banxia woke up around six in the morning and found herself reluctant to go back to sleep.

She secretly opened her eyes and cautiously stole glances at the man’s strikingly handsome face.

He was truly stunning—the chiseled features carried an aura of sharp masculinity and undeniable charm.

Lin Banxia couldn’t resist reaching out her hand, wanting to trace his flawless features.

Just as her hand extended, it was suddenly gripped tightly by a large palm.

Immediately, the man’s eyes flicked open—dark as ink—and his lips curved into a faint smile.

"Trying to do something naughty?" His voice carried a lazy, hoarse intimacy that came from just waking.

Startled, Lin Banxia quickly tried to pull her hand back, her face flushing crimson. "What naughty thing could I do? I was just... just pulling up the blanket for you!"

"Oh, really?" The man questioned her, his well-muscled body swiftly flipping over to press her firmly beneath him.

"Yan Ting, what are you trying to do now?" Lin Banxia’s beautiful eyes widened in alarm, feeling as though the beast within this man’s body had awakened—bigger and more overwhelming by the second.

"Ah..." Lin Banxia instantly realized the man’s intentions weren’t pure. Her face burned with embarrassment and heat as she placed her hands against his chest, trying to push him away.

"Give yourself to me." His voice was low, husky, with an edge of restraint.

The magnetic pull of his voice tightened a string in Lin Banxia’s nerves, making her strength give way as she grew weak in her resistance.

From six in the morning to eight,

Lin Banxia’s entire body ached to the point of exhaustion. Lying sprawled on the bed, even her fingers refused to move.

"Yan Ting, don’t you have work today?" Lin Banxia grumbled in frustration, complaining to him.

Yan Ting, however, was filled with energy, standing beside the bed as he dressed. His deep, magnetic voice carried a hint of satisfaction: "If it weren’t for work, I might not have let you off so soon."

Left speechless, Lin Banxia buried her face under the pillow. "Forget I said anything—be careful on your way to work!"

"Are you worried about me?" Yan Ting’s mood instantly lifted.

"What’s today’s date?" Lin Banxia suddenly sat up, picking up her phone and staring at the number. Her brows furrowed tightly.

Yan Ting noticed her frowning expression and couldn’t help but ask, "What’s wrong? Does this date have some special significance for you?"

"No!" Lin Banxia tapped her forehead with her finger. "I feel like my memory is getting worse lately."

"Don’t tap your head—what if you become even sillier?" Yan Ting immediately grabbed her restless hand, preventing her from continuing this self-harm.

Lin Banxia chuckled softly. "Even if I get sillier, you’ll still have to take me as I am without complaint!"

"There’s one more thing—you’re not allowed to take any medication, do you understand?" Yan Ting’s mention of medicine made Lin Banxia freeze slightly.

Her beautiful eyes blinked lightly. "Yan Ting, do you think... we really have a future together?"

"Why would you ask that? Don’t you trust me?" Yan Ting’s entire body stiffened.

"It’s not that I don’t trust you. It’s just... the future is full of uncertainties. What if I end up in danger, leaving you and the child..." Lin Banxia’s voice was filled with endless pessimism.

Suddenly, her chin was lifted by his firm hand, and before she could react, his lips captured hers in a deep, forceful kiss. After the lingering kiss, his tone turned domineering and angry: "Stop saying such unlucky things. If you ever have a child, I swear I’ll protect both of you."
