For My Wife, I Am Actually Very Afraid of Heights

In the forest

Luo Ruying swiftly flew over the treetops, carrying Ning Yechen in her arms, while Luo Hongye was wrapped in a swaddling cloth on her back.

To leave the forest faster and more efficiently, Luo Ruying simply held Ning Yechen in a princess carry, flying directly over the trees.

Ning Yechen had initially wanted Luo Ruying to put him down so they could travel slowly on the ground.

But the feeling of being held in her arms was so comfortable that he abandoned the idea...

As Luo Ruying sped along, she scanned the surrounding forest vigilantly, wary of any enemy or monster attacks.

Strangely, before arriving, she could sense the presence of many monsters in the forest, but now she couldn't feel any trace of them...

It seemed the monsters had all left...?

Even if she sensed a monster's presence from afar, it would immediately disappear and flee.

She hadn't released any pressure or aura, yet as soon as she approached, the monsters would instantly hide far away...

It seemed a bit odd...!

But Luo Ruying couldn't quite pinpoint what was strange.

"Mother, Father, are we leaving here again?"

Luo Hongye, resting on Luo Ruying's back, looked up and asked reluctantly into Luo Ruying's ear.

Ever since leaving that dark place, Luo Ruying had taken her to many different locations, never staying long in any of them.

This time was no different...

But with Father here this time, she really liked the little wooden cabin nestled in the woods...

Ning Yechen reached out and comfortingly rubbed Luo Hongye's little head, softly saying:

"Yeye, Father and Mother are taking you on a trip~"

"There will be lots of delicious food~ and lots of fun things to do~!"

"Fun things... delicious food...!"

Upon hearing this, Luo Hongye's big eyes lit up, and her face instantly showed a look of longing.

"Can Yeye eat it...?"

"Of course!"

"Our Yeye can eat whatever she wants!"

Ning Yechen promised confidently.

"Yay~!"

"Then Yeye wants to go on a trip with Father and Mother~"

Luo Hongye's face bloomed with joy, and she happily danced with excitement.

Luo Ruying looked at the father and daughter in her arms with a helpless yet doting expression, and whispered into Ning Yechen's ear:

"You spoil her too much."

"Hmm? Isn't that good?"

"Or are you jealous, my wife?"

Ning Yechen asked with a smile, looking at Luo Ruying.

Luo Ruying's cheeks flushed, and she gave Ning Yechen a playfully annoyed glare.

"I didn't mean it like that...!"

What was this guy thinking...!

He always said such flirtatious things with a straight face. She'd toss him out of the sky if he wasn't careful!

How could she possibly be jealous of her own child...?

Ning Yechen's lips curved slightly upwards, and he suddenly wrapped an arm around Luo Ruying's waist, snuggling closer into her embrace.

Luo Ruying was startled and whispered:

"You, what are you doing...!"

"My wife, I'm actually very afraid of heights!"

"I'm feeling a bit unwell right now and can only feel safe holding you!"

Ning Yechen said with utmost seriousness.

After speaking, he put on a pained expression, closed his eyes, and let his head rest on Luo Ruying's chest...

Mmm... soft and fragrant...

This, this guy... is he really afraid of heights?

Why didn't she hear him mention it last time!

Luo Ruying's cheeks burned with embarrassment, her red lips pursed as she looked down at Ning Yechen in her arms, filled with suspicion!

After flying for so long, he never said anything, but now he's suddenly dizzy and afraid of heights!

Luo Hongye stared with wide, curious eyes at Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying.

From the very beginning, Father had been whispering to Mother...

Being stared at by her child, Luo Ruying felt too embarrassed to push Ning Yechen away from her embrace.

What if he really was dizzy and afraid of heights...?

"How about... I put you down to rest for a bit?"

Luo Ruying asked Ning Yechen in her arms with concern.

"No need, just keep holding me like this, my wife,"

Ning Yechen replied without opening his eyes.

Luo Ruying: "..."

Luo Ruying suddenly felt like this guy was definitely faking it!

However, just then, Ning Yechen suddenly quietly opened his eyes and changed his tune, saying:

"My wife, it's better to put me down for now."

"Huh? Okay..."

Luo Ruying quickly descended from mid-air and asked again with concern:

"Are you alright?"

"I'm fine, I just need to go to the restroom~"

Ning Yechen said, scratching his head with an embarrassed look.

Hearing this, Luo Ruying's cheeks involuntarily flushed red again, and she whispered:

"Do, do you want... me, to go with you?"

"Huh?!"

Ning Yechen's eyes widened in shock.

What did she mean by that...?

He just wanted to find an excuse to get rid of her temporarily, and she wanted to accompany him to the restroom?!

Luo Ruying also felt that what she just said might have been easily misunderstood, so she quickly and flusteredly explained:

"I, I didn't mean it like that!"

"You're not allowed to misunderstand!"

"I'm worried about monsters and beasts in the forest, and I don't feel safe leaving you alone..."

So that's what it was...

He was really startled...

Ning Yechen realized, he almost thought his wife was surprisingly bold...

"Don't worry, my wife, I'll be fine on my own."

"You and the child just wait here for me."

"I'll be back soon."

Ning Yechen smiled and waved his hand, then darted into the bushes.

Although Luo Ruying was still a bit worried, she really couldn't bring herself to follow.

After sensing that there were no beastly or monstrous auras around, she obediently waited in place.

After entering the forest alone, Ning Yechen's smile disappeared, and his brow furrowed.

He sensed a familiar aura after more than a hundred years!

That aura was hidden a hundred miles ahead!

It seemed like they were waiting specifically for them!

The Chaos Demon Bull and the other two wouldn't even be a match for the opponent!

It seemed he had to deal with it himself.

He hated it the most when someone interrupted his time with his wife and child!

Forcing him to leave his wife's warm embrace, you're all dead!

Ning Yechen instantly appeared in the forest a hundred miles away, coldly saying to the surroundings:

"Come out, all of you."

The surrounding forest was deathly silent, with no response whatsoever.

"Hmph, too scared to come out?"

"Then I'll help you!"

Ning Yechen's expression sharpened, and he reached into the void!

The void, like a mirror, produced a rift as his palm plunged in, shattering the space around it!

Ning Yechen's hand grasped a man covered in bizarre black markings and slowly pulled him out of the void's rift.

The man's face was filled with terror, and he struggled with all his might.

He couldn't believe that even hiding in a rift in the void, he could still be found!
