My gorgeous wife

Chapter 613: Chapter 585: Li Chen’s Apprehension

"Honey, have some soup."

Li Chen brought out a bowl of fish soup from the kitchen and, seeing Lin Yi’s face still pale, couldn’t help but feel concerned as he spoke.

This time, Lin Yi had almost had an incident again, and Li Chen found himself feeling somewhat guilty.

It wasn’t the first time something like this had happened; the previous time, even Li Xinmei had kidnapped Lin Yi right in front of him.

And this time, he had been captured by Wang De, had he been too careless?

If he had been by her side at the time, would such a thing have happened?

Li Chen very gently fed Lin Yi the fish soup with his own hands, his eyes filled with compassion.

Feeling stared at by Li Chen, Lin Yi also started to feel a bit embarrassed.

"Alright, alright, I’m fine now. Why are you looking at me with that expression?" Lin Yi said with a flushed face.

"Actually, it’s mainly because my wife is so beautiful that I just can’t take my eyes off her," Li Chen said with a smile.

Lin Yi tasted the fish soup that Li Chen had personally prepared and felt it warming her body, spreading a mysterious heat throughout.

Her initially cold body warmed up. Hearing Li Chen’s words made Lin Yi’s heart feel even warmer.

Soon, with Li Chen’s help, a small bowl of fish soup was quickly finished by Lin Yi.

"Wipe your mouth." Li Chen brought over a tissue and carefully wiped the soup stains from the corners of her mouth.

"Oh! Don’t do that; I’m not used to it!" Lin Yi quickly snatched the tissue from Li Chen’s hand.

In her memory, it was the first time Li Chen had treated her this way. Yet seeing Li Chen suddenly become gentle, Lin Yi felt something was off.

In her memory, the somewhat cynical Li Chen seemed to be transforming into a competent husband. Nevertheless, she still preferred the naughtier Li Chen.

"Not used to it?" Li Chen was taken aback, "Isn’t it normal for a husband to comfort his wife when she’s been frightened?"

"Since you’re not comfortable with that, shall we try another way?" Suddenly, a smile appeared on Li Chen’s lips.

Seeing Lin Yi’s reaction, he could tell she was feeling better.

It’s especially easy to fall ill when frightened, and on the way back, he had secretly used True Qi to help her recover, and with this bowl of fish soup, Lin Yi should have no problems. Li Chen also quietly breathed a sigh of relief internally.

"Another way?" Lin Yi was startled, still not quite understanding what Li Chen meant when suddenly he leaned in close and kissed her assertively.

"Mmm..."

Lin Yi’s eyes widened instantly. This rascal!

Remembering the day’s events at the office, Lin Yi’s breathing progressively became more rapid.

It took a while until Lin Yi felt she was almost out of breath, and then Li Chen finally let her go, "Wife, how about this method?"

"You big pervert! I... I’m going to my room to take a shower!" Lin Yi said with a flushed face, getting up and running upstairs.

Watching Lin Yi’s retreating back, a faint smile appeared on Li Chen’s face.

Not until Lin Yi had entered her room did the smile on Li Chen’s face slowly fade away.

"Trouble, always trouble."

Sitting on the sofa, Li Chen couldn’t help but think of that white shadow that flitted past his car when he was coming back. He could vaguely discern that it seemed to be a man.

"Could it be that he is behind this? But who is he?" Li Chen’s brows furrowed tightly.

He had thought that after dealing with Andy and Li Xinmei, he could have a peaceful life for a while. However, trouble had found him again so soon.

Although his strength was gradually increasing, the enemies that appeared now seemed even more powerful than before.

Considering the power of Li Xinmei and Andy, their strength was already incomparable even by the standards of those on the Main God Ranking, let alone others from rankings like Earth Ranking or similar rankings.

It was only then that Li Chen realized that there were so many powerful beings in the world, or rather immense combat power that could not be measured by those rankings. It was, frankly, a joke to try.

"But no matter who you are, I will not allow you to harm anyone close to me!" A firm resolution flashed in Li Chen’s eyes.

It didn’t matter how strong the enemy was, he could grow stronger. Whoever planned to strike against him or anyone close to him had better be prepared to fight him to the death.

Li Chen never considered himself a good person; he was just a selfish man.

He couldn’t concern himself with too many things, but if anyone dared to target him, they had better be prepared to pay a bloody price.

Lying on the sofa, Li Chen’s thoughts drifted far away.

After a while, Li Chen stood up from the sofa, walked out of the villa’s living room, and made his way to the backyard’s storage room.

In the corner of the storage room, there was a secret door.

Beneath that door was the basement that Li Chen had specially prepared.

Even Lin Yi and Aunt Wang didn’t know about this basement, which Li Chen had privately had excavated.

Previously, the basement had been empty, but recently, a new "guest" had arrived there.

Red Moon.

Li Chen didn’t quite know how to feel about Red Moon.

He could sense the immense power from Red Moon, but he could also feel how it was eroding his mind.

In the moment he killed Li Xinmei, Li Chen even felt a terrifying urge to kill Lin Yi.

It was precisely because of this thought that he immediately sheathed Red Moon, and even when killing Li Xinmei, he had used his fists instead of Red Moon Slash.

Li Chen could feel that his body was somewhat different from others; even when Red Moon absorbed his blood, the process was very slow, as if some power was suppressing Red Moon.

Inside his body, there was not only that Mysterious Energy but also blood that was different from ordinary people.

However, Li Chen still feared Red Moon.

There’s no such thing as a free lunch in the sky, and Li Chen believed that acquiring great power came at a cost.

Therefore, after returning, he had sealed Red Moon in the basement and decided that he would not use it unless absolutely necessary.

Slowly walking into the basement, Li Chen’s expression was somewhat indescribable.

However, upon seeing the situation inside the basement, his face suddenly froze.
