Second pregnancy, sixth child: The beloved mom's disguise has been exposed again.

Chapter 497 He proposed without warning.

"Who are they?" Ning Yao frowned inexplicably, not recognizing the two men Wen Tingye had called in.

Wen Tingye remained silent, but gave his bodyguards a wink. The bodyguards immediately understood and tackled the two men to the ground.

After the bodyguard knocked the man down, he reached out and twisted both of their arms.

The two men on the ground were terrified by the crushing force, howling in pain and crying out for help and apologies.

"Confess to all the dirty deeds you've done, and President Wen might spare your lives!" the bodyguard said viciously.

"I'll talk, I'll talk." The young man looked terrified. He had no doubt that if Wen Tingye had any intention of harming them, they would die a horrible death on the spot.

The young man pulled several packets out of his pocket, which looked like powders or something similar, through the semi-transparent bags.

"I was just trying my luck. I heard that Yang Dongcha is the eldest daughter of the Yang Group. If I can get in touch with her, I'll never have to worry about food and clothing again..."

"It's just a regular sleeping drug. I had no intention of harming Mr. Yang or this young lady's health. You can trust me!"

"Later...later I saw that the lady next to you was even prettier, and I thought it would be more fun for the three of us to hang out together, right? The woman who is on good terms with Boss Yang must be either a rich heiress or from a very high social class, unlike us ordinary people."

"But we didn't even have a chance to make a move before you arrived. We were just blinded by lust and bewitched. We really didn't do anything. Please spare us! We'll do anything you ask if you let us go!"

The young man immediately knelt down and kowtowed to Wen Tingye and Ning Yao, appearing as if he had repented and realized his mistakes.

Ning Yao was quite incredulous at what she saw.

She truly hadn't expected that the person Dongcha had paid to hire would be so unreliable, actually plotting to drug her and Dongcha behind her back.

Wouldn't it be more fun to play together as a group of three?

These words swirled in Ning Yao's mind several times.

Belatedly realizing what was happening, the young woman felt a sudden shiver run through her body, as if she had just escaped a disaster.

If Lian Qiran hadn't rushed over, and if Wen Tingye hadn't appeared and caught those two men with ill intentions, it would have been obvious what would have happened to her and Dongcha.

Although they have bodyguards around them, the bodyguards are only there to protect their personal safety. They certainly have no say in their private lives and dare not interfere.

The bodyguards might even have to watch helplessly as the 'drunk women' are led into a hotel room by a young man...

Ning Yao shivered. Wen Tingye caught a glimpse of her out of the corner of his eye, pursed his thin lips, and silently pulled the young woman into his arms, quite tightly.

Wen Tingye's embrace gave Ning Yao a sense of security. She wasn't afraid of being unable to defeat this malicious thug in a sober state; she was afraid of being drugged and violated while in a dazed and confused state...

"Now you know why I was angry?" Wen Tingye said in a deep, powerful voice beside Ning Yao, with a hint of lingering fear in his voice.

He saw the two men holding several packets of powder when he was at the door, and that's when he got the idea to beat them up.

If it weren't for the need to teach Ning Yao a lesson by witnessing the brush with his own eyes, he would have already arranged for his bodyguards to drag the people to the beach and beat them so badly that they wouldn't be able to get out of bed for months.

These men who dare to have designs on Wen Tingye's woman must be trying to die out.

Wen Tingye scoffed coldly, his eyes so icy they sent chills down one's spine.

The bodyguards dragged the two young men, who were trembling with fear and sweating profusely, away from the ground to avoid getting in Wen's way.

At this moment, Ning Yao leaned against Wen Tingye's chest, held tightly by him, and could hear the man's strong heartbeat in her ear, feeling a strong sense of security.

"In your eyes, am I really such a petty person who can't even tell right from wrong?" The man's voice came from his chest, making Ning Yao's ears go numb, and her aura instantly deflated.

She was wrong. She shouldn't have thought that Wen Tingye misunderstood her for messing around in the bar and assumed that he was the same as Lian Qiran.

They are fundamentally different; they are two completely different people.

She is also different from Yang Dongcha and cannot be confused or compared.

"I'm sorry..." Ning Yao murmured softly.

"I don't want to hear an apology from you. I want you to realize that many things in this world are risky, and I am your safe haven. I will never harm you, Ning Yao. You must remember this."

"You can always trust me and rely on me wholeheartedly. Don't bear the burden alone when you encounter problems. I will solve them for you and clean up the mess for you."

"Don't misunderstand me anymore, don't assume I'm malicious. I love you very much and I will never hurt you in the slightest, now and ever."

Wen Tingye's warm hand caressed Ning Yao's cheek, his gesture filled with tenderness.

The young woman's face wasn't large, and when the man's palm touched it, her face appeared even smaller, almost the size of a palm.

As Ning Yao listened to Wen Tingye's touching words, her heart pounded faster and faster, as if it were about to burst out of her chest.

She had indeed hurt Wen Tingye's feelings this time, but he was magnanimous and didn't hold it against her at all, as long as she trusted him and relied on him.

"Mmm." Ning Yao nodded vigorously, stretched out her arms to hug Wen Tingye's waist, and leaned closer to him.

Ning Yao has never had the habit of relying on others. Over the years, she has become accustomed to independence and solves everything on her own. She doesn't think that others can help her. In this world, apart from herself, there are not many people she can trust.

Aside from her child, who is her blood relative, she would never doubt him. And besides her child, she also has the father she just found.

But she had been overlooking the existence of one person: Wen Tingye.

Wen Tingye cherished her with all his heart from beginning to end, and never lied to her or hurt her.

But she seemed to have excluded Wen Tingye from her own world, which was indeed extremely unfair to him.

"You too, Wen Tingye." The young woman sighed suddenly, her voice long and soft, carrying a hint of guilt.

“If you encounter any problems in the future, I can help you. I believe that sooner or later I will have the ability to stand shoulder to shoulder with you, face risks together, and become your safe haven, Wen Tingye.”

“If something happens, we’ll face it together. If I really can’t help you, I’m willing to share the consequences with you.” Ning Yao still didn’t have enough confidence in front of Wen Tingye.

She knew Wen Tingye was very strong, so strong that he didn't need her protection.

But she was willing to stay by Wen Tingye's side and face the consequences with him.

This is also Ning Yao's promise to her man, isn't it?

Thinking this, Ning Yao gripped the corner of the sofa even tighter, her knuckles turning white.

A pair of men's hands instantly covered the back of her hands, gently cupped them, and then pulled her into their palms, completely enveloping her.

"Perhaps now is a good time for me." The man chuckled, stood up from the sofa, and knelt on one knee in front of Ning Yao with an extremely devout posture. As if by magic, he produced an extremely beautiful engagement ring from his hand.

The diamond on the ring has sharp edges, but it won't scratch your hand because it's encased in a rounded, transparent layer of water vapor.

The mist enveloped the diamond, making it radiate brilliance, much like the relationship between Wen Tingye and Ning Yao: one infinitely tolerant, the other unrestrained and willful, indulging in their whims as they please, running wild under the halo of the mist...

Ning Yao couldn't tell what the water mist was made of yet, but she felt that the design of the ring was breathtakingly beautiful. It was simply a top-notch work of art that did not exist in the mortal world, absolutely beautiful and flawless.

Ning Yao was amazed by the ring's ingenious design, examining it closely for a full five minutes before she suddenly froze, her eyes widening in disbelief, belatedly realizing what had happened...

Wen Tingye proposed to her! ???
