CHAPTER 952: CHAPTER 952: PUTTING YOU IN THE PIG BASKET

The next day, Ye Xuan arrived at the Company early. He didn’t have much to do, so he spent a leisurely morning in the office.

As lunchtime approached, Ye Xuan left his office, entered the elevator, and headed toward Lin Tong’s chairman office.

Upon arriving, he saw the door closed, took out the key card his wife gave him, unlocked the electronic door lock, and walked in boldly.

At this moment, Lin Tong and Su Yumo were sitting at the desk, eating takeout together. When they saw Ye Xuan, they glanced at him but continued eating.

Witnessing this scene, Ye Xuan thought to himself, these two girls are eating without inviting me, that’s so heartless!

Without greeting, he rubbed his hands and walked over, saying, "Are you guys eating? Perfect timing, I was just wondering where to eat; now I don’t need to worry, there’s ready-made food here!"

Lin Tong glared at him without any enthusiasm: "This is our lunch. You’re not allowed to touch it."

"Exactly! If you want to eat, go buy your own; don’t come eating ours," Su Yumo echoed, firmly refusing to let Ye Xuan mooch their food!

This guy was a big eater; they only ordered enough for two, which even combined wasn’t enough for Ye Xuan. How could they let him join?

"Buying my own is such a hassle! There’s food right here; why wouldn’t I eat it?"

Ye Xuan didn’t pick up on their opposition at all, acting as if he hadn’t heard a word they said.

After speaking, he pulled over a chair, sat right next to Lin Tong, and looked at her eagerly, saying shamelessly:

"Honey, you wouldn’t be heartless enough to watch me starve, would you?"

Lin Tong shot back two words, simply and directly: "I would!"

"Uh... Honey, how can you treat me like this? I’m your cute and brave husband!"

Ye Xuan looked hurt.

"I never acknowledged you as my husband!" Lin Tong retorted.

"You... you wicked woman, defying traditional roles, not even recognizing your own husband! You’re willing to let him starve; you should be dunked in a pig’s cage for this."

Ye Xuan appeared distressed and pointed at Lin Tong, shouting.

"What did you say?"

Upon hearing, Lin Tong frowned.

Under Lin Tong’s fierce gaze, Ye Xuan felt slightly guilty and shrank back.

But then he straightened up, glaring at her viciously: "I said... if you don’t give me food, I’ll eat you up right now!"

With a malicious look and crazy attitude, he felt quite smug, thinking whether this little girl would be scared.

"Get lost! Stay away from me!"

Lin Tong threw a sideways glance at Ye Xuan and kicked at him without saying another redundant word.

"Wow, you’ve become so daring! Not seeing me for a few days, and you don’t even listen to me? This is outright rebellion! Watch how I’ll deal with you to ensure you know who’s the boss..."

Ye Xuan said righteously, then lunged forward, hugging Lin Tong and lifting his two claw-like hands to tickle her all over.

"Ah, no! You big jerk! Let go of me... hehehe, stop tickling me there, it’s so itchy! Haha... I was wrong! Boohoo, hubby, I’ll give you food!"

Lin Tong shrieked repeatedly, laughing and begging for mercy, unable to withstand Ye Xuan’s mischievous hands, reluctantly yielding.

"Realize your mistake?" Ye Xuan asked.

"I do!"

"What’s the mistake?"

"I shouldn’t stop my hubby from eating."

"Anything else?"

"A woman should adhere to traditional roles, husband is heaven, wife is Earth; as a wife, I should listen to my husband, he’s my sky, and not contradict him, otherwise it’s disrespectful to the husband! Should be dunked in a pig’s cage."

Lin Tong said miserably.

"Hmph, at least you’re obedient! If it happens again, you’ll be dunked in a pig’s cage, young lady!"

Ye Xuan waved his hand, satisfied with her attitude of admitting mistakes.

Beside them, Su Yumo was dumbfounded!

Traditional roles? Three obediences and four virtues? What’s with all this? She couldn’t believe these words came from Lin Tong! These detestable feudal thoughts are supposed to be historical dregs, discarded in the trash!

Why are these two speaking so seriously? She felt like her worldview was turned upside down!

Stopping the tickling, Ye Xuan’s eyes rolled, and he shifted a hand from Lin Tong’s waist to under her thigh, picking her up.

"Honey, shall we go to the inner room?" Ye Xuan suggested with a sly smile.

"Hmm? Go inside for what?"

Lin Tong looked at him warily.

She was well aware of this pervert’s nature, constantly plotting dirty things for her! If she really went inside with him, who knows what he would do! Isn’t it just jumping into a wolf’s den?

"Of course, it’s for business, right? You said you’d give me your food, so naturally, we need to go inside for a feast! Can’t eat here, can we?" Ye Xuan grinned wickedly.

"I... When did I say I’d give you that? I meant food, not... that! Don’t get the wrong idea!"

Lin Tong’s face changed, quickly saying, "Let go of me, I need to eat."

"Oh, so you’re eating food? You should’ve been clearer; made me happy for nothing!"

Ye Xuan pretended to understand, but his grin showed he was obviously being deliberate.

"Fine! I’ll just eat..."

Lin Tong just relaxed, but upon hearing this, almost fainted from anger!

This vile rascal, why’s he always thinking about eating me? I’m not some delicious dish, am I?

"Honey, let me feed you, open wide."

Ye Xuan chuckled, took the remaining food box from Lin Tong’s front, used chopsticks to pick some food, and reached toward her mouth.

"I’m not in the mood, can’t eat! Eat yourself!"

Lin Tong was already satiated with anger, had no mind for food, dismissing him and turning away.

"Not eating? That’s not right!"

Ye Xuan immediately disagreed.

Putting down the chopsticks, he said righteously: "You’re a chairman now, earning money’s important, but your hubby isn’t short on cash! Health is more important; if you starve yourself, who’ll feed our future baby? Don’t let your chest shrink so I can’t get any milk..."

Hearing Ye Xuan’s words at first, Lin Tong felt somewhat better.

But the last line shocked her! Nearly furious enough to kick him hard, what do you mean no milk for you?

"Hmph!"

She snorted heavily, lowering her face, ignoring Ye Xuan.

"Honey, be good, stop being petty. Open up and eat."

Ye Xuan persuaded again, putting the chopsticks at her mouth.

"Not eating!"

"Really not eating?"

"I said I’m not eating!"

"Alright then, if you don’t eat, I’ll eat you; choose one of the two options!"

Ye Xuan no longer pretended, smirking at Lin Tong.

"You..."

Lin Tong turned back, fiercely glaring at Ye Xuan, itching to bite this rascal.

But she knew well enough she couldn’t do anything to him!

To avoid being ’eaten’ by this hungry wolf, she reluctantly opened her mouth and bit down on the chopsticks...
