Your Highness, your wife doesn't want you anymore!

Liu Xinlan gently placed her hand on Nan Zhi's protruding belly and examined it carefully: "Your belly is much bigger than that of a typical singleton pregnancy, it looks like you're carrying a boy."

Nan Zhi sat on the edge of the bed and answered softly, "The doctor said... I have two babies in my belly."

Liu Xinlan was both surprised and delighted, then frowned and instructed, "Two..."

"Twin births are very risky, and premature births are very common, so you must take extra care of them on a daily basis."

She changed the subject, her tone becoming serious: "Let me ask you something honestly, how does he treat you on a daily basis?"

"The person who came to pick me up was vague, and I've been feeling uneasy ever since."

"Before, I was with him unwillingly, but now, I stay willingly."

"He's not bad to me," Nan Zhi said honestly.

Liu Xinlan patted the back of her hand, relieved: "As long as you know what's right."

After saying that, she took out a bank card from her bag and put it into Nan Zhi's palm: "This is the dowry your grandmother prepared for you, two hundred thousand yuan, please keep it."

"No, no need, I don't need any money here," Nan Zhi quickly declined.

Jin Si Nian was responsible for all her daily expenses. Her grandmother left her 200 million yuan in the bank, and she also saved up some money by selling her jewelry in her early years. She was not short of money.

She could actually raise two children on her own.

But Liu Xinlan was adamant and insisted on shoving the card into her hands: "Listen to me and take it. You can leave it for your two children in the future."

Nan Zhi could only clutch the bank card tightly. Liu Xinlan remained silent for a moment, then asked softly, "Did that family come looking for you afterwards?"

Normally, Liu Xinlan would not mention her biological parents in front of Nan Zhi.

Nan Zhi lowered her eyes, her mood somber: "They did come looking for me. After I got pregnant, Nan Yu even came to my door."

"Grandma... I was actually sold to Jin Si Nian by the Nan family."

Just as he finished speaking, there was a gentle knock on the door, and Jin Si Nian pushed it open and entered, carrying a full plate of fruit: "Zhi Zhi, it's time to take some vitamins."

"Also, it's already 2 PM, shouldn't you be taking a nap?"

There was no other way; he couldn't wait any longer.

I had no choice but to force myself to join.

Otherwise, Zhizhi would keep chatting with her grandma and completely ignore her.

Nan Zhi hurriedly stood up, grabbed a few strawberries and cherries and stuffed them into her mouth. She took the fruit plate and pushed Jin Si Nian toward the door, saying, "I...I'm not taking a nap today. You go out first. I'm still talking to...Grandma. I didn't let you in."

"Can't I listen?" Jin Si Nian pulled her into his arms, his eyes full of grievance. "We're clearly family, why are we talking like two different people?"

She was too naive and petty, and didn't treat him like family.

Even though we've already registered our marriage, I still treat him like an outsider!

"You...can't hear me." Nan Zhi, with her belly protruding, was very firm in her attitude.

Jin Si Nian reluctantly conceded, asking in a low voice, "How much longer are you going to talk?"

"You have to give me a deadline."

"I'm so bored waiting outside all by myself."

Since Nan Zhi became pregnant, he hasn't been in her dreams except when she's sleeping.

He spent the rest of his time with Zhizhi.

Now that Zhizhi has a maternal grandmother, she has forgotten about him.

When her grandmother arrived, all her time and attention were devoted to Liu Xinlan, which made Jin Si Nian feel a pang of sadness.

He grabbed Nan Zhi's small hand, unwilling to give up, and pressed, "What little secrets are you talking about that you have to keep from me?"

Nan Zhi gazed silently at the determined man before her, without uttering a word.

Kings gently shook their clasped hands and conceded, "Alright, I'll wait for you outside."

He obediently retreated to the living room, but less than half an hour later, he couldn't resist pushing open the bedroom door and tentatively poking his head in: "Zhizhi, does Grandma need some water?"

Nan Zhi glared at him fiercely, her eyes full of helplessness. Jin Si Nian tactfully closed the door immediately and apologized softly, "Sorry to bother you."

As night fell, Nan Zhi came out of the bathroom after taking a shower, and Jin Si Nian had already prepared pregnancy oil and was sitting by the bed waiting for her.

He gently touched his nose to her, inhaling the faint scent of her bath, and murmured, "She just took a shower, she smells wonderful."

He reached out and pulled her onto the bed, gently lifting her loose pajamas and carefully applying stretch mark oil evenly to her abdomen. As he massaged her, he said with relief, "Luckily, your belly skin is well-maintained; it's smooth and you haven't developed a single stretch mark."

Nan Zhi looked down at her pregnant belly, a hint of unease in her heart, and asked softly, "If...if stretch marks appear, will you dislike me?"

Jin Si Nian rested his head comfortably on her lap, and upon hearing this, he immediately shook his head gently, his tone earnest and tender: "Of course I won't mind. You worked so hard to carry our child and give birth to my children. I cherish you more than anything."

He reached out and grasped Nan Zhi's fingertips, pressing them against her belly to soothe her tense emotions: "Don't overthink it. You're perfectly clean now, not a single line has appeared."

The man's large, slender hand traced the faint line down the middle of her abdomen. Jin Si Nian asked curiously, "Zhi Zhi, do you think a C-section involves cutting along this line to take the baby out?"

Nan Zhi couldn't help but chuckle, feeling both annoyed and amused. She gently corrected him, "That...that's seppuku, not a cesarean section at all."

Nan Zhi pressed down on his hand that was resting on her stomach, and asked with a wry smile, "If it were really that cut, I... would I even survive?"

He might die on the operating table in an instant.

Jin Si Nian's mind wandered elsewhere. Taking advantage of her distraction, he quietly reached out to try and pull up her pajama bottoms, but Nan Zhi noticed him as soon as he made the move.

"Kingsman," she said, her tone carrying a hint of warning.

Caught red-handed, the man reluctantly withdrew his hand, looking aggrieved as he explained, "I was just checking if that area needed some proper care."

"Should we water the little garden?"

"We haven't had any close contact in so long..."

Nan Zhi's cheeks burned red. He was puzzled. He was usually so steady and restrained that he would never say anything inappropriate before. But now he was talking about these dirty words so skillfully that it was as if he could do it all off the cuff.

Regardless of whether it's black or white, they'll portray it all as yellow.

Do all men act like this after they first experience sexual indiscretion?

Actually, this applies even if you don't eat meat.

"Wh...what do you mean it's been a long time? I just...did it a few days ago."

Jin Nian gently placed his palm on her calf, refusing to back down: "You yourself said it was only a few days ago."

"For me, even a day feels like a long time."

"You spent all your time with Grandma today and barely paid any attention to me," Jin Si Nian said, his voice laced with jealousy.
