Martial arts have become extinct worldwide, yet I am forced to have a large family.

The other judges looked at each other in bewilderment.

No one expected Jiang Mengyun to get a perfect score.

It's worth noting that Jiang Mengyun has been incredibly stingy with the scores she's given since the start of the competition.

But now, she gave it a perfect score without hesitation!

However, to be fair, Yang Xi'an's performance was indeed excellent!

There's absolutely nothing wrong with it.

Giving it a perfect score doesn't seem unacceptable.

The judges quickly reached a consensus.

Even Miss Jiang the Second gave it a perfect score. If they didn't, wouldn't that be a slap in the face to the Jiang family?

Then, new scores started popping up on the big screen one after another.

Everyone gave it a perfect score!

……

As expected, the rest of the match was completely devoid of suspense.

In the end, Yang Xian won the championship of this exhibition match in an uncontroversial manner.

"Now, let's give them a warm round of applause..."

"Please welcome our champion, Yang Xi'an, to the stage to receive her award!"

Amidst applause and cheers from the audience, Yang Xian calmly walked onto the high award stage.

On the stage, Jiang Mengyun was already waiting there.

Under the spotlight, she smiled at Yang Xian.

"Mr. Yang, congratulations."

She proactively extended her slender hand.

Looking at the stunningly beautiful face before him, Yang Xian felt a strange sensation rising within him.

They've already registered their marriage, yet they've slept in the same bed more than once.

Now, however, we have to behave like strangers, observing the most polite social etiquette...

He suppressed his thoughts, reached out, and gently grasped that soft, boneless little hand.

"Thank you, Miss Jiang."

The touch sent a jolt through Yang Xian's palm, and his heart skipped a beat for no apparent reason.

He could feel Jiang Mengyun's fingers subtly hooking his palm.

In the live stream, countless male viewers were heartbroken.

[Holy crap! The champion even gets the perk of shaking hands with Miss Jiang?!]

Why didn't you say so sooner! If I had known, I would have signed up for the competition too! I could brag about this for a year!

[Wake up, upstairs! Even if you participated, could you beat the machine and get five perfect scores?]

[I'm so envious I could cry! Why isn't that man on stage me...? Why?!]

But what no one knew was...

Only Yang Xiancai received this treatment.

If it were someone else...

shake hands?

No way!

Soon, two hostesses dressed in cheongsams came up, each carrying an exquisite tray.

On a tray lay a neatly folded soft armor – the "Mysterious Scale Soft Armor".

On the other tray was an antique jade box containing the "Nine-Aperture Exquisite Grass".

Jiang Mengyun personally picked up two prizes from the tray and handed them to Yang Xian.

"Mr. Yang, we hope these two prizes will help you go further on your martial arts journey in the future."

Her voice was clear and melodious, and her posture was elegant and graceful, perfectly fulfilling the role of an award presenter.

The awards ceremony concluded, and the hostesses withdrew.

As is customary, the next step is for the champion to take a photo with the award presenters.

Yang Xian and Jiang Mengyun stood side by side, facing the countless flashing cameras below the stage.

Both of them maintained polite smiles.

However, the next second...

"Hmm!"

Yang Xian's body stiffened abruptly.

A small, fair hand was hidden behind him, mischievously pinching the soft flesh at his waist.

Yang Xian whispered, "Mengyun... what are you doing!"

Jiang Mengyun maintained her perfect smile, her red lips slightly parted.

"Shh... Honey, you have to hold back~"

"Everyone's watching."

"Smile even brighter!"

Upon hearing this, Yang Xian's forehead twitched.

He tried his best to control his facial muscles, not letting the pain and helplessness show.

The short photo session, lasting only a few dozen seconds, felt incredibly long to him.

……

After the group photo, the two finally stepped down from the awards stage.

That was the end of their business.

Even if there were any, Jiang Mengyun couldn't be bothered to care anymore.

As soon as the girl stepped off the stage, she said to Yang Xian, "Come with me."

"oh."

Yang Xian dared not say no and could only obediently follow behind her.

After many twists and turns, the two finally arrived at the door of a room.

Jiang Mengyun glanced around warily, and after confirming that there was no one else in the corridor, she quickly swiped her card to open the door.

"Come in."

She pulled Yang Xian inside, then closed and locked the door behind her.

Before Yang Xian could react, he was pushed down and sank into a leather sofa.

Then, a soft, delicate body pressed down on her, straddling Yang Xian's body.

"Honey~ I've missed you so much!"

Jiang Mengyun could no longer restrain herself. She removed Yang Xian's mask and kissed him fiercely.

Where is that unapproachable image that outsiders perceive?

On the contrary, it felt somewhat oppressive.

After a long while, their lips parted.

Jiang Mengyun's pretty face was flushed with a captivating blush, and her beautiful eyes were shimmering with moisture.

Yang Xian took a breath and smiled as he looked at her beautiful appearance.

"Thanks, Mengyun, for preparing such a wonderful prize for me."

"Good to know, there's no need for thanks between us!" Jiang Mengyun proudly raised her chin.

"But... how do you plan to make it up to me?"

"The child's father?"

Although Yang Xian already knew the result from the system and had told Jiang Mengyun in advance.

But hearing it from Jiang Mengyun's own mouth at this moment still brought me immense joy.

"Mengyun, you... found out?"

"Mmm." Jiang Mengyun nodded, a shy blush appearing on her face.

"Measured this morning, two bars."

"I haven't told my parents yet. I want to wait a while, then we can go to the hospital together for a proper check-up and give them a surprise."

At this point, Jiang Mengyun tightened her arms around Yang Xian's neck even more.

"Honey, please don't go to that Secret Realm #121, okay?"

"Stay with me in the Jiang family. I'll take care of you for the rest of your life. We'll lack nothing."

Upon hearing this, Yang Xian, somewhat amused and exasperated, pinched her cheek.

"Fool, what nonsense are you talking about?"

"I worked so hard to get this spot, how can I just back out like this?"

"Besides, I'm not going there for fun this time."

"I'm here to find the 'Nine-Turn Life-Extending Lotus' to save your great-grandfather."

Jiang Mengyun pouted, looking aggrieved.

"But I'm so worried about you!"

"The secret realm is so dangerous. What if something happens to you? What will I do? What about the baby in our belly?"

Seeing the worry in her eyes, Yang Xian's heart softened completely: "Don't worry, didn't you just see my strength?"

"Hmm..." Jiang Mengyun sniffed, "Then you must be careful. I'll have Jiang Yu and the others look after you in the secret realm."

"Okay," Yang Xian agreed with a smile.

"But now..." Jiang Mengyun's eyes darted around, and she gently rubbed her body against him.

"Honey, it's time to pay your dues!"

Yang Xian: ? ? ?

He quickly pressed down on her restless little hands: "Mengyun, you can't do that kind of thing in the first three months... it's bad for the baby!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Mengyun not only did not stop, but instead put her head close to Yang Xian's waistband.

"Not down there..."

"Isn't there something above it...?"
