CHAPTER 1527: CHAPTER 1449: BITTEN BY A BUG

Her skin was covered in kiss marks.

"Mommy, did a bug bite you?" Looking at the "strawberries" on Ye Ranran’s body, Jun Baby asked with pure innocence.

Ye Ranran looked down, but before she could react, Jun Mochan walked out of the bathroom.

Their eyes met, and Ye Ranran’s first instinct was to grab the blanket and cover herself.

"Baby, could you step outside for a moment?" Her tone was a mix of negotiation, entirely using an adult’s voice to talk to him.

Jun Baby didn’t understand why, but seeing his mommy speaking to him so seriously, his intuition told him to comply.

As he walked to the door, he turned back and said, "Mommy, if you wear clothes while sleeping, bugs won’t bite you."

At that moment, Ye Ranran wished for a hole to crawl into.

Once Jun Baby left, Ye Ranran grabbed the blanket with one hand and, trembling, pointed at Jun Mochan with the other: "This is all your fault."

The scoundrel—after bathing her—why didn’t he help her put on clothes? And now, she had lost all face in front of the child.

Jun Mochan handed her the nightgown from beside them, his demeanor utterly composed, and said, "Alright, it’s all my fault. So how about you punish me by letting me help you put it on?"

At that moment, Jun Baby poked his head in from the door: "Mommy, you’re such a grown-up—do you really need help putting on clothes?"

Ye Ranran instinctively burrowed further into the blanket.

"Baby, go downstairs and eat breakfast first, or you’ll be late for school." Jun Mochan replied with a serious face.

"Oh, okay. By the way, Mommy, can you take me to school today?"

Other kids were always dropped off by both their parents, but he only ever had his dad. His dad had told him that Mommy was recovering and wouldn’t be back for a long time.

Now she was really back.

So could he now be like the other children and have both his dad and mommy drop him off?

"Of course." Ye Ranran answered without even thinking.

Facing Jun Baby’s dark and earnest eyes, who could really ever say no?

"Alright then, Mommy, hurry up, or I’ll be late." Confirming her answer made Jun Baby very happy, and he left, skipping as he went.

Turning her head, Ye Ranran saw Jun Mochan still standing there. She snatched the nightgown from his hands and snapped fiercely, "You, turn around."

Jun Mochan obediently turned his back, and Ye Ranran quickly slipped into the nightgown and hopped out of bed.

Her legs trembled, and she nearly collapsed to the floor—a pair of large hands caught her just in time.

Jun Mochan slightly exerted strength, lifting her upward, causing Ye Ranran to lean forward instinctively—falling right into Jun Mochan’s arms.

"So enthusiastic this early in the morning, Madam?" Jun Mochan’s amused voice rang out above Ye Ranran’s head.

Ye Ranran quickly pulled back from his arms, but her aching back and weak legs rendered her completely powerless.

As she was about to fall again, Jun Mochan scooped her up into his arms. "Does Madam enjoy me playing the hero saving the beauty?"

"I’m not some ’beauty,’ and you’re not a ’hero.’" Being teased again and again, Ye Ranran couldn’t help but feel irritated.

"Hmm, I’m only your personal hero." Jun Mochan responded without any hint of concern.

Faced with his indulgent tone, Ye Ranran suddenly felt like she was being unreasonable. All her anger instantly dissipated.

"We’re husband and wife, Ranran." Jun Mochan’s hand rested gently on her back, patting softly, as if trying to calm her nerves and reassure her.

He had thought about taking things slow, but now he realized he couldn’t wait.

"I know, I just feel like everything is happening too fast." Ye Ranran lowered her gaze and murmured softly.
