Chapter 1894 - 1892: [Just Married, Already Urged to Have Kids]
[Asking for monthly tickets!!!]
Separate rooms!
It might sound unbelievable, but it actually makes perfect sense!
Ye Tianchen and Liu Rumei, even though they were married, and had indeed developed some feelings for each other during this period of getting along, had still never had any physical intimacy at all. Both of them felt a bit awkward and nervous, which was only natural. On top of that, after the exhaustion of the whole day, their desire to sleep definitely outweighed any **, so in the end Liu Rumei slept in Ye Tianchen’s bedroom, while Ye Tianchen slept on the sofa in the villa’s living room!
Who would’ve thought!
Early the next morning, before Ye Tianchen and Liu Rumei had even woken up, the Ye family’s servants were already about to come into the villa. This startled Ye Tianchen; he quickly rolled off and rushed back into his own room, and in the process woke Liu Rumei up!
"Shh, keep it down. If people find out we didn’t sleep together, who knows what kind of news it’ll turn into!" Ye Tianchen put a finger to his lips and whispered to Liu Rumei.
"Th-then... what do we do?" Liu Rumei froze for a moment and asked.
Thud thud thud!
That was the sound of the Ye family servants’ footsteps. They had already entered the villa and were heading toward the main bridal room on the second floor. The sound of their steps made one’s heart tighten involuntarily. Ye Tianchen glanced at Liu Rumei, then said, "No choice, we can only bluff our way through for now, otherwise all our efforts will go to waste!"
Before Liu Rumei could react, Ye Tianchen dove under the covers, pulled Liu Rumei into his arms, and pretended to be sound asleep. Liu Rumei was startled, her cheeks flushed red, and just as she was about to speak, she heard knocking at the bedroom door.
"Young Master, Young Madam, we’re coming in now!"
As soon as the words fell, a servant of the Ye family pushed the door open and walked in. To Ye Tianchen, this was unreasonable—how could the servants just come in like that? It didn’t make sense. But Liu Rumei understood: it wasn’t that the Ye family servants didn’t know the rules, it was the rule for the morning after a wedding in big old families. For such powerful clans, the newlyweds’ bedtime on the wedding night and their getting up the next morning were all to be attended by designated servants, just like in the old Royal Family days. Even now, some high-ranking, truly aristocratic families in certain countries still followed these old customs!
Several servants entered the room but deliberately did not look toward the bed. That was both taboo and respect. They each busied themselves with preparations: face-washing water, mouthwash, cleaning away the dust in the room. After glancing at the servants, Ye Tianchen held Liu Rumei in his arms in a very relaxed way and said, "We were too tired last night, I’m going to sleep a bit more. What time is breakfast?"
"Young Master, for breakfast time, Master and Madam specially changed it to nine o’clock!" a servant replied.
"Mm, good change. We really were too worn out last night, I need more sleep!" Ye Tianchen deliberately said it that way.
After the group of servants left, Liu Rumei shot Ye Tianchen a fierce glare and said, "Even if you want to send a message, you don’t have to repeat it over and over, do you?"
"If I don’t repeat it, how are they supposed to believe we actually slept together last night? Besides, those servants were obviously sent by Mom and Dad to check whether we really stayed in the same room. You still don’t get it?" Ye Tianchen said.
"I know, but..." Liu Rumei wanted to say more, but Ye Tianchen cut her off.
"Alright, let’s sleep a bit longer. You don’t mind, right? We’re both still wearing clothes..." Ye Tianchen suddenly trailed off halfway through his sentence.
Just then, as he was talking, he turned over, and in the process his hand accidentally brushed against Liu Rumei’s back. Ye Tianchen froze at once, because the sensation was completely different. The feeling through clothes and the feeling with no clothes on were obviously not the same.
When Ye Tianchen accidentally touched Liu Rumei’s back under the covers, he stiffened for a moment. He realized Liu Rumei wasn’t wearing anything. Was she... sleeping naked?
"What’s with you... such particular tastes, even sleeping naked?" Ye Tianchen asked with an awkward laugh.
"We were so exhausted last night, and I didn’t bring any pajamas over. Of course this was the only way!" Liu Rumei snapped back, face flushed red.
At this moment, Ye Tianchen suddenly looked at Liu Rumei and realized that right now she was unbelievably beautiful. Maybe it was the morning light, maybe it was the morning hormones, whatever the reason, Ye Tianchen and Liu Rumei just gazed at each other like that, then slowly closed their eyes, and their lips moved toward each other and met.
When Ye Tianchen and Liu Rumei’s lips touched, it was as if they had both been set on fire. Their feelings for each other, their mutual desire, were ignited in that instant. They wrapped themselves around each other, from a fierce kiss to rising passion—things might be about to happen at any second!
Thud thud thud!
"Sis, brother-in-law, time to get up and eat!"
"Bro, sis-in-law, you two better get up, Mom and Dad told us to come wake you!"
Interrupted, really interrupted. Liu Fei and Ye Qianwen, those two troublemakers, had come to mess things up again. The passion that Ye Tianchen and Liu Rumei had finally managed to spark was instantly doused. They couldn’t help looking at each other and giving an awkward little smile. Ye Tianchen smiled faintly and said, "I’ll go out first, you take your time getting dressed."
"Mm." Liu Rumei nodded, blushing hard.
Right then, outside the bridal room door, Liu Fei and Ye Qianwen were both grinning mischievously, about to keep knocking and yelling when—creak—the door opened. Seeing Ye Tianchen with such a serious expression, the two of them hurriedly straightened their faces and pretended to be all proper.
"Heh heh, brother-in-law, look what time it is, time for breakfast!" Liu Fei snickered.
"Yeah, bro, Mom and Dad are getting on in years, breakfast has to be on time!" Ye Qianwen chimed in.
Ye Tianchen shot the two troublemakers a look, then directly pushed them away from the door. As he herded them downstairs he said, "Both of you, get downstairs. Don’t pull this crap with me."
"Brother-in-law, we really did come to wake you up for breakfast!" Liu Fei said with a grin.
"Yeah, we were just afraid you and Sister Rumei wouldn’t be able to get up, so we personally came to call you!" Ye Qianwen also chuckled.
Ye Tianchen ignored the pair of pests and simply pushed them down to the first floor of the villa. He knew that even if this wasn’t Liu Fei and Ye Qianwen deciding on their own to come gossip, they’d been sent by his parents. Still, Ye Tianchen couldn’t really say anything about it—after all, parents have their own worries.
After a quick wash and getting dressed, Ye Tianchen, Liu Rumei, Liu Fei, and Ye Qianwen headed together toward the dining room of the Ye family’s main house. By the time the four of them arrived, Ye Hong and Luo Yan were already at the table. The servants in charge of breakfast for the Ye family saw the four of them come in and hurried to lay out the meal. In no time, everything was ready.
"Rumei, come sit over here!" Luo Yan said with a smile.
"Mm, Auntie..." Liu Rumei blurted out.
"Still calling me Auntie?" Luo Yan deliberately put on a slightly displeased face.
"Oh—Mom, Dad!" Liu Rumei called out with a smile.
"Mm, hurry and sit. We all had a long day yesterday, so let’s skip all that formal stuff today and just have a nice family meal together." Ye Hong said with a satisfied nod.
Everyone sat down. The happiest of all were Ye Hong and Luo Yan. They had finally seen their son, Ye Tianchen, get married. In their hearts, that big rock they’d been carrying for years had finally been set down.
But seeing his parents this happy, a trace of worry and hesitation rose in Ye Tianchen’s heart. He didn’t know where to even begin in telling them his real identity, telling them the true worldview of this world. Would that wipe away the joy and happiness they felt right now? That was what Ye Tianchen worried about the most. His parents were the people he cared about above all.
"Rumei, eat more of this bird’s nest, really nourish yourself. You’ve got to hurry up and give our Ye family a grandson!" Luo Yan said with a smile.
"Mm..." Liu Rumei almost sprayed out a mouthful of bird’s nest. She had absolutely not been prepared for Luo Yan to drop a line like that.
"Hehe, Dad, Mom, we just got married and you’re already talking about kids—aren’t you rushing things a bit?" Ye Tianchen said with a laugh.
"Rushing what? You and Rumei aren’t that young anymore. If you don’t have children soon, you’ll miss the best age for childbirth. That’s very dangerous for a woman. You can’t do that—you have to think about Rumei too!" Luo Yan said seriously and earnestly.
"Mom, we still want to enjoy a couple of years of just the two of us. Can we hold off on having kids for a bit?" Liu Rumei also said with a smile.
"Rumei, a woman’s best age for childbirth is twenty-eight. You’ve already missed that optimal window. If you don’t have a baby this year, you’ll be considered an older mother, and that’s dangerous for a woman. It’s true we want to hold our grandchild, but I really don’t want you to face any danger or suffer because of it!" Luo Yan looked at Liu Rumei and spoke earnestly.
"Alright, we got it. This isn’t something we can completely plan anyway—let’s just let nature take its course." Ye Tianchen broke the awkward stalemate.
Neither Ye Tianchen nor Liu Rumei had expected that on the very next morning after their wedding, his parents would already be pushing them to have a child. That was way too fast, wasn’t it? But before Ye Tianchen could say what he really wanted to say, the matter had been put off again and again... (To be continued.
