After the first batch of medicine was successfully developed, Ye Chen carefully recorded every step and process.
With the experience of the first success, the subsequent production of the medicine went much more smoothly.
After another full day of hard work, Ye Chen successfully produced nine doses of the potion that emitted a green fluorescent glow.
He carefully stored the medicine, breathed a long sigh of relief, and finally his tense nerves relaxed.
After eight consecutive days of intense mental stress, even he, with his physical condition, felt physically and mentally exhausted.
Further live experiments have to be postponed; what he needs most now is a good night's sleep.
Thinking of his wife and the baby waiting for him at home, Ye Chen felt a surge of warmth in his heart and quickly walked out of the laboratory.
The moment Ye Chen took off his protective suit, a strong, rancid smell hit him. He then realized that he hadn't changed his clothes for several days and that he himself disliked the smell on his body.
He chuckled self-deprecatingly. These past few days, he had been working almost day and night to develop the medicine, and he hadn't had time to care about personal hygiene.
He shook his head, turned and went into the bathroom, turned on the tap, and let the warm water wash over his tired body, as if to wash away the hard work and stress of the past few days.
After taking a shower, Ye Chen changed into clean clothes and felt refreshed and invigorated.
When Ye Chen returned to Mengyunxuan, night had already fallen.
Wang Yuxi was taking a walk with Li Muyue in the yard when they saw Ye Chen return, and they quickly came over to greet him.
Ye Chen smiled slightly at Wang Yuxi, then turned his gaze to Li Muyue's stomach and asked, "How are you feeling today?"
Li Muyue gently stroked her belly and replied with a smile, "I feel great today, and the baby is being very good."
Ye Chen couldn't help but reach out and gently touch Li Muyue's belly, feeling the faint pulse of life inside, and a happy smile appeared on his face.
He lowered his head and said softly, "I really hope time will pass quickly. I really want to see our baby soon."
Li Muyue reached out and took Ye Chen's hand, saying, "I'm also looking forward to it. He must be very cute."
Wang Yuxi stood aside, watching this heartwarming scene, her heart filled with emotion and anticipation.
She coughed lightly and said, "Ye Chen, you haven't had dinner yet, have you? I'll go prepare some for you."
Wang Yuxi said, turning and walking towards the kitchen to give the two of them some time alone.
Watching Wang Yuxi's departing figure, Li Muyue turned to Ye Chen and scolded, "You should spend more time with Yuxi when you have time. Who would disappear for seven or eight days after just getting together with someone?"
Ye Chen smiled somewhat awkwardly and said, "It's my fault. I lost track of time when I got into my research. I'll be more careful in the future and won't make you worry anymore."
Li Muyue shook her head and said, "This is not your fault. We are not canaries. We can't be idle all day long. The preparations for the formation of the fleet should be made as soon as possible. Yuxi has been with me for so many days. She also needs to get some exercise. Otherwise, she won't be happy to be with me, a pregnant woman, all day long."
Ye Chen glanced in the direction Wang Yuxi had left, a thoughtful look flashing in his eyes, before nodding slightly.
Both women in the family are career-oriented and have their own pursuits. Wang Yuxi, needless to say, is always adventuring all over the solar system, and Li Muyue, if she weren't pregnant, would also be someone who can't sit still.
However, he had already made arrangements for the establishment of the fleet, and the advanced body enhancement drugs were one of the resources prepared for the future interstellar fleet.
The speed of interstellar spaceships is measured in light speeds; without a strong physique, one simply cannot adapt to high-intensity combat.
That evening, Ye Chen chatted in Li Muyue's room for a while before she kicked him out.
Ye Chen stood at the door, looking at the tightly closed door, and shook his head helplessly.
He understood Li Muyue's thoughts, which were that she wanted him to spend more time with Wang Yuxi.
Arriving at Wang Yuxi's door, Ye Chen reached out and gently knocked.
Soon, Wang Yuxi's soft voice came from the room: "Honey, I'm already asleep. You haven't been back for the past few days, you should spend some time with Sister Muyue tonight."
Upon hearing this, Ye Chen nearly fainted. He stood at the door, both amused and exasperated, thinking, "I've got an extra wife, and I'm being passed around like this! What kind of mess is this?!"
His lips twitched, and he said to the door, "Yuxi, I know you're not asleep. Open the door, I want to talk to you."
Wang Yuxi chuckled and said, "Alright, go find Sister Muyue, don't waste your time here, I won't open the door."
Ye Chen sighed, put on a bitter face, and said, "Sigh, you two are really on the same wavelength, both of you trying to push me away! What did I do to deserve this?"
Inside the room, Wang Yuxi leaned lazily against the bed, hearing Ye Chen sighing outside the door.
She peeked towards the door, a sly smile playing on her lips, and said with a hint of mischief and teasing, "Alright, alright, stop complaining. Go on, I'm going to sleep!"
Ye Chen snorted coldly and said, "Don't think I can't do anything just because the door is closed!"
He turned to face the camera in the hallway and commanded, "Tomoko, open the door."
“Yes, Master!” a clear female voice replied.
Then, the combination lock clicked open.
Ye Chen reached out and pushed open the door, walking in with triumphant strides.
Seeing this, Wang Yuxi knew it was too late to stop them, but she didn't intend to.
She pouted and said coquettishly, "You scoundrel! You actually let Tomoko break down my door."
Although she spoke reproachfully, she wore a happy smile on her face, and her eyes sparkled with a bright light, as if twinkling with little stars. It was obvious at a glance that she was saying one thing and meaning another.
Ye Chen smiled mischievously and replied nonchalantly, "Being a rogue is better than being locked out!"
As he spoke, he moved closer to Wang Yuxi, a fiery glint in his eyes.
"You...you get out, I want to sleep."
Wang Yuxi's voice revealed a hint of nervousness and shyness. As soon as she finished speaking, she quickly shrank into the quilt, as if trying to avoid Ye Chen's gaze.
Ye Chen chuckled, took a few quick steps to the bedside, and then slipped under the covers. He hugged her tightly and said with a soft laugh, "Perfect timing, I also want to sleep, let's sleep together."
"Turn off the lights!"
The lights in the room went out instantly, plunging the room into complete darkness.
"Ah! Where are your hands?" Wang Yuxi exclaimed softly from the darkness.
Then, Ye Chen's mischievous voice rang out: "Of course, it should be placed where it belongs!"
"You, you mustn't...don't do this."
"Um……"
