Ye Chen paused at the entrance of Tian Xinyuan's guest room, wondering whether to knock on the door beforehand, when suddenly the door was pulled open from the inside.

The atmosphere between the two suddenly became a bit awkward.

Tian Xinyuan was surprised to find someone at the door, especially someone he hadn't seen all day - his supposed husband for the arranged marriage.

He had just finished taking a shower and stepped out of the bathroom in his room. His slightly damp bangs clung to his forehead, and he hadn't even dried his hair properly. After showering, he felt a little stuffy and thirsty, so he wanted to go downstairs to the refrigerator to see if there was any milk.

Just as he opened the door, he bumped into someone.

Tian Xinyuan was annoyed at himself for choosing the wrong timing, but remaining silent in this moment would appear impolite. He opened his mouth, but the words "older brother" couldn't escape his lips. Deep down, he felt that Tian Ke was his only older brother, while Ye Chen's relationship was more complicated. Calling out "Brother Ye Chen" once again would make Tian Xinyuan feel embarrassed.

The young man stood at the door with an anxious expression on his face, which was clear to Ye Chen.

In the end, Ye Chen, being older, broke the stale atmosphere between the two of them.

Ye Chen first smiled politely and asked him, "Haven't you rested yet? Are you going downstairs?"

After hearing his question, Tian Xinyuan slowly let out a breath and inexplicably felt a bit nervous. "Um... well... I'm just... I'm just a little thirsty, so I wanted to go get a glass of water..."

Ye Chen's gaze lingered on the slender neck of the youth, as droplets of water rolled down the curve of his neck and seeped into the collar of his pajamas. His Adam's apple bobbed up and down, and the mature Alpha naturally averted his eyes, without the slightest guilt or shame, saying, "Aunt Chen is at home, you can ask her to bring it to you."

Tian Xinyuan didn't notice the other person's gaze, and he also didn't expect Ye Chen to answer him like this. Although he came from a wealthy family, Tian Xinyuan always tried to do as much as he could by himself. Besides, Aunt Chen is getting older, so it's not good to trouble her going up and down stairs at night like this.

"It's not necessary to trouble Aunt Chen specifically, I can do this myself."

Emotions surged deep within Ye Chen's eyes, their depths unfathomable. After a moment, he took a few steps back, making way for Tian Xinyuan. His voice was low and magnetic: "I'll take you home tomorrow. Rest early today."

Tian Xinyuan hadn't taken a step forward when the words he wanted to ask were still on the tip of his tongue. But then he heard Ye Chen call his name again, "Tian Xinyuan."

Tian Xinyuan heard the sound and looked up at him.

Ye Chen pointed to the ends of his hair, which were still dripping with water. "Remember to dry your hair before sleeping, otherwise you might wake up with a headache the next day."

Unconsciously, she ran her hand through her hair, and her pajama collar was also quite damp. Tian Xinyuan responded with a nod, then asked the question she had not mentioned earlier, "Did you say you are going home?"

He hadn't yet grasped the meaning behind the other person's words. Where did they mean by "go home"?

Is it your own home or the main residence of the Ye family?

Ye Chen nodded and explained, "Although our families are joining in marriage, according to tradition, you should also go back home at least once." Seeing Tian Xinyuan still puzzled, he decided to be direct and finished his words, "Go back to your family's home."

Tian Xinyuan was happy.

He didn't express any opinions when the arranged marriage was set up, and simply accepted the arrangement by default.

After the wedding, they continued to live in this particularly unfamiliar duplex. It was impossible for him to say that he didn't miss home even a little bit.

Politely, Tian Xinyuan hummed an untuned melody as he stomped downstairs in his slippers, bidding Ye Chen an early goodnight.

Ye Chen squinted his eyes as he watched the figure of the youth walking in the dim light of the corridor.

Yeah, no matter how you look at it, Tian Xinyuan, who is eighteen years old, still appears to be a young boy with a childish heart in his eyes.
