Chapter 511

Seeing Xiao Churan go into the bedroom bathroom to bathe, Ye Chen went to the guest bathroom on the same floor to shower.

That is the one good thing about living in a villa; there are so many bathrooms that you don't have to queue.

Ye Chen bathed quite quickly. By the time Xiao Churan came out of the bathroom, he had already finished showering and was lying on the bed.

Seeing Ye Chen lying spread-eagled on the bed wearing only a tank top and shorts, Xiao Churan was stunned for a moment before blurting out: "Why are you sleeping on the bed?"

Ye Chen laughed and said: "Wife, didn't we agree long ago that it was time for me to level up? A while back, Mom went to get involved in a pyramid scheme, which delayed my leveling up. Now that she's back, you can't still refuse to let me level up, right?"

"I..." Xiao Churan was suddenly a bit embarrassed.

She didn't know how to answer this question from Ye Chen either.

It was true; she had indeed promised him that she would let him level up and that he wouldn't have to sleep on the floor anymore.

But she and Ye Chen had never had such an intimate arrangement before.

She truly hadn't prepared herself mentally for this aspect.

However, on the other hand.

During this period, Xiao Churan's affection for Ye Chen had been warming up rapidly.

Especially today, watching Ye Chen slap Jiang Ming in the face, watching Ye Chen donate 1 million to the orphanage, watching Ye Chen solve his good brother's employment issues and set him on the peak of his life...

In her eyes, the Ye Chen of tonight was simply like an omnipotent god.

At certain moments, she also felt her heart flutter; perhaps that was the feeling of love.

Thinking of this, her face immediately turned red. Under the dim light of the bedroom, she looked even more delicate and charming.

Ye Chen looked at her shy appearance, his heart filled with deep affection.

This was his beloved wife, like a ray of sunshine in his life, warming his heart.

Xiao Churan looked at Ye Chen with flushed eyes, and only after a moment did she say with extreme shyness: "You can level up, but you can only level up by one level!"

Ye Chen hurriedly asked: "Wife, what do you mean by that? What does it mean to only level up by one level?"

Xiao Churan said: "Starting today, you sleep on the bed, but this bed is divided in two—men on the left, women on the right. Without my permission, you are absolutely forbidden to cross the line; otherwise, you will be demoted by one level."

Ye Chen said with a mournful face: "Wife, what does being demoted by one level mean?"

Xiao Churan rolled her eyes at him and said: "You know what leveling up means, don't you know what being demoted means?"

Ye Chen asked gloomily: "Does being demoted mean I have to go back to sleeping on the floor?"

"Yes!" Xiao Churan said triumphantly: "If you don't behave well, you get demoted to sleep on the floor. If you behave even worse, you get demoted again to sleep in the guest room. Anyway, we have plenty of rooms in this villa."

Ye Chen was almost crying as he said: "Wife, can you tell me what the next level is? When will I be able to reach the next level?"

Xiao Churan's pretty face was flushed as she said: "What the next level is remains confidential for now. As for when you can level up, you'll have to wait for notification from your superior."

As she spoke, Xiao Churan patted her chest and said with a giggle: "I am your superior, and all rights of interpretation belong to me."

Ye Chen was extremely depressed and said: "Wife, you must have heard what Auntie Li said today. Auntie Li is really hoping that we can have a child soon. We can't let Auntie Li's wish go to waste, can we?"

"Don't you start!" Xiao Churan stomped her feet in extreme embarrassment and said: "Who wants to have a child for you? Whoever is willing to have one with you, go find them. Anyway, I'm not doing it."

Ye Chen said helplessly: "How can a married couple not have children? We are both normal people, not infertile. It will make people laugh if we never have children. What if they think you are incapable of reproduction? Wouldn't they look down on you?"

Xiao Churan pouted and said: "If others ask, I'll just tell them that you are the one who is incapable of reproduction. Wouldn't that solve it?"

After saying that, Xiao Churan added: "Besides, you know you've only just reached the second level. Do you know what level having a child is?"

Ye Chen immediately said: "I bet it must be the third level!"

Xiao Churan hummed: "In your dreams!"

After saying that, Xiao Churan picked up his quilt from the floor, threw it at him, and said: "One person, one quilt. You are not allowed to cross the line! Hands, feet, body, hair—nothing is allowed to cross the line. If you cross it, you get demoted!"

Ye Chen could only say helplessly: "Fine, fine, fine, I know. I definitely won't cross the line, is that okay?"

Xiao Churan smiled shyly and said: "That's more like it."

After finishing, she opened her own quilt, turned her back to Ye Chen, and lay down on the bed.

As soon as Xiao Churan got into bed, she burrowed into her quilt, wrapping herself up tightly. Her face was so red it looked like it might bleed. She glanced at Ye Chen once, then quickly turned her head away.

At this moment, Ye Chen really wanted to hold her and give her a kiss.

However, having lived with mutual respect like guests for so long, why should he be impatient and go against her wishes now?

Regardless, he had already leveled up. Being able to lie on the same bed as her was a huge step forward. If he behaved well in the days to come, leveling up again was just around the corner.

Perhaps when he reached the next level, the two of them could sleep under the same quilt.

Thinking of this, his heart felt much happier.

Xiao Churan didn't dare look at him; she reached out to turn off the light and said: "It's getting late, let's go to sleep."

After the light was turned off, the bedroom was pitch black, and it was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop on the floor.

Ye Chen could clearly hear Xiao Churan's breathing. Her breathing was a bit rapid; it seemed she must be very nervous right now.

Usually, when Xiao Churan was asleep, her breathing was very even and soft.

So Ye Chen asked her: "Wife, are you still awake?"

Xiao Churan asked: "What's wrong?"

Ye Chen was also a bit nervous and hurriedly said: "Nothing, I just wanted to chat with you."

Xiao Churan said: "What do you want to chat about? Go ahead."

Ye Chen chuckled, turned his head to look at Xiao Churan's silhouette, and asked: "Wife, how is your company running lately?"

Xiao Churan said: "Not bad. The Emgrand Group and several other companies have given me some orders. I am designing them one by one and finding people for construction. Overall, it's already showing improvement. There are already several million in the company's account, and that's just the initial payment. If I finish the projects I have now, the income should exceed 10 million."

Ye Chen said in surprise: "Wow, wife, you're amazing! How long has it been, and you've already brought in 10 million!"

Xiao Churan said: "10 million is just the revenue; the actual profit is only about 2 million. These 2 million aren't even as much as what you earn from reading Feng Shui for someone once."

As she spoke, Xiao Churan hurriedly said to Ye Chen: "By the way, don't you dare tell Mom about these numbers I just told you. If Mom finds out there are several million in the company's account now, she will definitely have ulterior motives!"

Ye Chen hurriedly asked: "Wife, I'll listen to you. I won't say a word to Mom!"

After saying that, Ye Chen asked again: "Wife, look at how well I'm behaving, can you let me level up again now?"
