Sun Yue was quite puzzled as she looked at Ye Xin, who was blushing.
She walked in and looked around, but there were no other clues in the room.
"Nothing going on, right?" Sun Yue asked suspiciously.
"Huh?" Ye Xin was taken aback and quickly replied, "No, nothing!"
Ye Xin had a smile on her face, but was feeling very nervous inside, fearing that Sun Yue would notice sothing.
"Then why did I wait for more than an hour and you still hadn’t returned?" Sun Yue asked, glancing toward the kitchen where the light was on.
The TV was still playing the end credits of a war movie, and there were snacks scattered on the floor.
"Were you watching TV?" Sun Yue was very surprised.
Normally, Ye Xin would only watch so current affairs or international news and wouldn’t bother with these senseless entertainnt shows.
Only then did Ye Xin recall that earlier, while she was in the basent, she was exercising and also video chatting with Sun Yue about intelligence matters. Then, when the basent monitor showed that Yang Chen had arrived, Ye Xin quickly dropped what she was doing to open the door for Yang Chen.
However, Yang Chen’s assertive entrance caught Ye Xin off guard, making her forget that the video link in the basent was still on, and Sun Yue was still waiting for her.
"Just now..." Ye Xin was about to gloss over the situation when Yang Chen ca out.
Seeing Sun Yue, Yang Chen smiled and said, "You’re here. We were just watching a movie. Want to join us?"
Seeing Yang Chen, Sun Yue suddenly understood.
"Oh... so that’s why..." Sun Yue realized, pointing to the two of them.
She finally realized who was watching TV, and why Ye Xin didn’t go back down.
Only soone as carefree as Yang Chen would entertain himself by watching movies when there’s nothing else to do. Naturally, if Yang Chen was there, Ye Xin couldn’t just go to the basent alone, as that would expose Ye Xin’s little hideout.
The culprit behind everything lay with Yang Chen.
But Ye Xin misunderstood Sun Yue’s intention.
As the saying goes, one becos flustered when worried. Even soone as clever as Ye Xin, a top agent, was now frantically explaining, "No, no, it’s not what you think."
She thought Sun Yue was suspecting them of doing unspeakable things at ho. Although the situation earlier was indeed awkward, it wasn’t to the point of being unspeakable. But... she didn’t want anyone else to know!
"How is it not what I think?" Sun Yue retorted bluntly, "For soone like him, you should kick him out. Does he just freeload off you every day and act like a kept man?"
Pointing at Yang Chen, Sun Yue continued, "I tell you, Yang Chen, people like you are what I look down on the most. You have healthy arms and legs, your injuries have healed, yet you don’t go to work and spend all day watching TV and movies at ho, living off Ye Xin. Aren’t you ashad?"
"Uh!" Yang Chen was left dumbfounded by Sun Yue’s inexplicable chastisent.
Ye Xin was also stunned, never expecting Sun Yue to angrily attack Yang Chen like this.
She originally thought Sun Yue would probe into her and Yang Chen’s situation, but Sun Yue hadn’t thought in that direction.
This made Ye Xin heave a sigh of relief, even letting a smile creep onto her face.
Yang Chen, coming to his senses, smiled wryly and said, "Sun Yue, I didn’t provoke you, did I? Moreover, I’m just lucky to have found such a wonderful wife. Even if you’re envious or jealous, it’s of no use!"
Sun Yue could not believe her ears, her eyes widening. She didn’t expect Yang Chen to be so shaless to say such a thing.
"Yang Chen, I never thought you’d be such a person!" Sun Yue pointed at Yang Chen.
Ye Xin quickly grabbed Sun Yue, saying, "You shouldn’t say it like that. He’s my husband. If I don’t support him, who will?"
Sun Yue was utterly bewildered after hearing this.
Yang Chen couldn’t help but laugh heartily, feeling utterly joyful. With a wife like this, he had no regrets in life.
"Ye Xin, are you crazy?" Sun Yue looked at Ye Xin in disbelief.
Did this just co out of Ye Xin’s mouth?
Is this the top agent Fire Phoenix from Fla Country?
The one with a task completion rate of 99% and hailed as a legend by all agents?
She actually said she would support a man!
How could this be!
Sun Yue couldn’t believe such a thing was happening.
Ye Xin stared at Sun Yue and said, "This is normal. He’s my husband, and I am his wife. We’re married, and all the wealth is shared. Why the distinction of who supports whom and who freeloads? Besides, I have plenty of money! Even if I don’t work, it doesn’t matter."
Sun Yue was thoroughly dumbstruck upon hearing this.
Yang Chen was beside himself with joy and deeply moved.
He stood up, walked over to Ye Xin, and embraced her firmly, laughing, "Silly girl, how could I use your money!"
"But the fact is you are using her money!" Sun Yue retorted angrily.
Although Sun Yue didn’t know what kind of spell Yang Chen had cast on Ye Xin, she just sensed sothing was wrong about this Yang Chen, feeling he was just a lazy slacker.
Yang Chen shrugged helplessly and said, "Do you think I need to tell you if I have a top-tier vineyard in Lancy Country? Do I need to inform you if I have an estate in the United Kingdom? Must I report to you about the gold mines I operate in Lijia Continent? Just because you can’t see it doesn’t an it doesn’t exist. Don’t judge people one-sidedly!"
After speaking, Yang Chen, without caring about the two stunned faces, said to Ye Xin, "I’m going shopping for groceries. It’s also the first ti we have a guest at our place today. I’ll make so delicious food for you. Sun Yue, why don’t you stay for dinner tonight?"
With that, Yang Chen took the keys from the shoe cabinet and headed out the door.
The two inside the house stared at each other wide-eyed, in complete disbelief.
"Fire Phoenix, do you think what Yang Chen just said is true?" Sun Yue asked, blinking in disbelief.
If Yang Chen had a vineyard in Lancy Country, an estate in the United Kingdom, and gold mines in Lijia Continent, how co he returned to the country penniless, needing to work as a bodyguard to earn money?
Ye Xin was silent for a while.
After so contemplation, Ye Xin said seriously, "I think it’s true!"
"You believe that too?" Sun Yue asked, eyes wide open, "Does whatever he says count as real? Why doesn’t he just claim the moon belongs to him too!"
Ye Xin shook her head, "You don’t understand Yang Chen. He would definitely not say sothing lightly. If he says he has them, then they exist! I believe him!"
"It’s not about believing him or not; it’s just not possible! Think about it, if he indeed owns such assets, why did he return to the country penniless and work as a bodyguard for Wei Xueqing?" Sun Yue said.
Ye Xin replied, "He feared his identity would be revealed."
Sun Yue let out a cold laugh, "What identity exposure are you talking about? Do you think a retired special forces guard could possibly establish such wealth? It’s impossible. Even if he frequently went abroad for missions, he wouldn’t have had the ti to build those businesses overseas!"
Ye Xin smiled slightly, fixing her gaze on Sun Yue, "That’s the main point!"
Noticing the curve at the corner of Ye Xin’s mouth, Sun Yue was taken aback.
Because she knew Ye Xin too well. Whenever Ye Xin had that expression, it ant she was intrigued and her sense of challenge had been sparked.
