She knew hunting was a dangerous activity. There was hardly anything to eat or any place to sleep.

Therefore, under no circumstances would she let him set foot in the hills again!

Or she would be worried sick!

"Alright." Ye Yang nodded in agreement.

He knew his safety would not be guaranteed during hunting. Yet another reason not to set off her fears.

He would not do it again after this time!

He shut the door and windows properly before coming to bed.

Ye Yang lay on the long-forgotten bed, feeling extraordinarily comfortable and safe. His whole body gradually relaxed.

Seeing him close his eyes leisurely, feeling the comfort of the bed under him, Liu Duo could tell Ye Yang had not slept well in a while.

"Yang, you don't have to wake up early tomorrow. Sleep tight. And goodnight," Liu Duo said and gave him a kiss.

"You too, goodnight." Ye Yang gave his wife one last look before he turned to his side and shut his eyes, with her in his arms.

He was certainly tired. He could use a good night's sleep.

Looking at the face inches away from her, Liu Duo blinked, smiling. She was not sleepy at all.

She enjoyed Ye Yang's recent changes.

Compared to the blockhead from once upon a time who was not adept at romance, Liu Duo preferred the man who knew how to flirt!

Nobody liked a serious, almost inanimate 'object' after all.

It was dark outside, with the occasional rustling of the wind blowing against the bamboo trees, adding some musical tones to the quiet night.

Liu Duo, who did not know when she had fallen asleep, woke up again sometime in the night.

Drowsily, she squinted in the dark. She wondered what time it was. She felt a pair of hands trailing up and down her body. Ye Yang clung onto her, his body heat partially transferred to her person.

"Yang, scoot aside, can you? It's hot here," Liu Duo mumbled. She moved a bit away too.

When she did so, Ye Yang followed suit.

Liu Duo turned over to face him. "Yang, you're hot all over. If you keep clinging onto me, I can't sleep."

In the darkness, Ye Yang did not respond.

Liu Duo tried to shake him but to no avail. Ye Yang was still asleep!

"Little Duo, I want you... Want you..."

Liu Duo was immediately snapped out of her drowsiness. She was wondering if she should wake him, or push him away, whichever was better, when she heard his deep magnetic voice speaking every so often.

She had never thought that the cold and stoic man she had learned to love could actually be having a wet dream.

In the dark, her eyes widened as she suppressed a chuckle.

She muttered to herself, "Yang may seem reserved, but he's just an ordinary man after all. It's perfectly fine to have a wet dream, why am I so surprised? I feel like an idiot!"

As she was thinking just that, Ye Yang's right hand slipped into her underwear!

Shocked, she grabbed hold of his menacing limb. "Yang, watch where you're touching!"

He could be so indecent in his sleep!

Ye Yang mumbled again when his hand got caught. "Little Duo, let me have it, please?"

"Let you? I'd love to, but now's not the time!" Liu Duo would not want to risk hurting her unborn baby to satisfy their moment's desire.

She could not do it. It had not been three months.

Then, in one vigorous effort, she shoved him aside and moved towards the other end of the bed.
