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

Inside the car, Jin Si Nian turned and pulled Nan Zhi into his arms, gently stroking her warm cheek with his fingertips, repeatedly reminding her, "Remember to go to your prenatal yoga class on time tomorrow. Don't skip it. I'll have Grandma keep an eye on you the whole time."

"Also, you must send me a message every day and call me three times a day, morning, noon and night. You are not allowed to deliberately ignore the calls."

Nan Zhi nestled in his arms, pouting with her cheeks full, and complained softly, "I know... I know, you've said it so many times already."

She looked up at him, confused, her eyelashes fluttering slightly: "Weren't you...going to do something?"

Is calling three times a day too frequent? Won't he get tired of it?

Jin Si Nian pinched her soft little face, his eyes full of indulgent tenderness: "There are breaks even when investigating a case. It's not that I can't find the time."

"Call me when I wake up in the morning, call me again when I have a spare moment in the afternoon, and call me again before I go to bed at night. Don't hang up during the night; just keep the call going so I can sleep with you."

"No!" Nan Zhi's face scrunched up as she quickly shook her head, trying to bargain. "That's too much. One injection every two or three days is enough."

In the past, when he went on business trips, he always reported very briefly, only informing the traveler of his itinerary and return date, with very little information, let alone frequent phone calls.

She doesn't have that habit!

"One every two days? I don't agree." Jin Si Nian's attitude was firm, and he refused to back down in the slightest.

When he was away on business trips, Zhizhi never texted him or called him.

Things are different now; he and Zhizhi like each other.

Nan Zhi couldn't persuade him otherwise, and reluctantly compromised: "Then, how about one a day?"

"Okay," Jin Nian readily agreed, then added, "but Zhi Zhi should still send me messages about her daily routines."

Nan Zhi froze, a troubled look on her face: "Do we have to send it every day?"

The man nodded firmly.

Nan Zhi stared at him, inwardly complaining.

She didn't have anything important to do, nor did she have the habit of reporting her daily life to him. This damn Jin Nian, before he even left, was already giving her a difficult problem.

The car slowly pulled up to the airport drop-off area, and a cold wind seeped in through the cracks in the windows.

Jin Nian pushed open the door to get out of the car. Nan Zhi subconsciously wanted to unbuckle her seatbelt and follow him, but he raised his hand and pressed her down.

He leaned in through the car window, lightly kissed her lips, and wrapped his long arms around her tightly, his voice deep and tender: "Stay in the car and don't catch a cold."

"Remember to think of me. If you misbehave, I'll know immediately."

"Grandma and Aunt Qing will be watching you; you're not allowed to stay up late playing on your phone at night."

After giving his instructions, Jin Si Nian slowly released his arms, preparing to leave.

Just as he was pulling back, Nan Zhi suddenly raised her hand, her slender fingertips hooking around the collar of his suit.

Before he could react, the girl tilted her head slightly and pressed her soft lips against his.

The warm, soft touch landed unexpectedly on his lips, and Jin Si Nian froze instantly.

His deep pupils suddenly contracted, his long eyelashes froze, and he stood there stunned for several seconds, completely unexpected that the usually shy and taciturn Zhizhi would take the initiative to give him a farewell kiss.

A few seconds later, Nan Zhi gently loosened his collar, pulled back as if she had been electrocuted, her cheeks flushed red, and buried her head, not daring to look at him. Her fingertips frantically pressed the button, slowly raising the car window to block their view of each other.

Outside the window, Jin Si Nian stood in the cold wind, his fingertips tracing the corners of his lips, still warm from her touch.

He stood there, stunned, his eyes filled with the memory of that unexpected, spontaneous kiss.

It was only after a long time, when Uncle Wang had already driven Nan Zhi away from the airport, that he slowly came to his senses, dragged his suitcase, and turned to walk into the terminal.

After checking in, Jin Si Nian went to the VIP lounge and took a seat.

As soon as he leaned back on the sofa, he took out his phone and typed messages rapidly, bombarding Nan Zhi with messages.

[Child, you just kissed me~]

Why did you kiss me first?

This is the first time you've kissed me first.

Are you reluctant to see me go?

He pressed his fingertips to his lips, muttering to himself: "Having a clingy pregnant woman at home is such a hassle, yet she's also so sweet it's impossible not to love her."

It's so annoying, I can't bear to part with him.

On the other side, inside the car on the return journey.

Nan Zhi curled up on the soft cushion in the back seat, only belatedly realizing what she had just done.

Why did she impulsively hook her arm around him and kiss him?

Even she herself didn't expect to be so bold.

She's usually very timid, but she acted too impulsively today.

A burning blush instantly spread across her entire face, her ears burned, and her heart pounded.

My phone kept vibrating and the screen kept lighting up, all messages from Jin Si Nian.

The moment Nan Zhi saw the message, she was so embarrassed that she wanted to bury her face in a pillow. Her fingers gripped the phone screen tightly, and she simply bit her lip and pretended not to see it, stubbornly refusing to reply.

Jin Si Nian, waiting in the lounge for a reply, sent message after message, his tone a mix of grievance and deliberate stubbornness: 【Hmm?】

Why aren't you saying anything?

Why is Zhizhi ignoring me?

[You just promised to message me every day, and now you've disappeared?]

You clearly promised that.

I know you're looking at your phone, and I know you saw my message.

Reply to me.

The messages popped up like a barrage, making Nan Zhi's palms go numb. Unable to resist his persistent chatter, she slowly typed out two words in reply: "【Didn't forget】"

She secretly thought to herself: I've already replied to the message, so they can't say I'm disobedient now, right?

She replied, telling Kingsnian not to talk about her.

However, Jin Si Nian wasn't going to let her off the hook: "Why did you kiss me first? You wouldn't even let me kiss you before."

He took the initiative to kiss her, but Zhizhi looked disgusted.

They actually posted it here on their own initiative today.

Nan Zhi stared at the screen, feeling troubled. She couldn't very well say that she had acted impulsively and instinctively pressed herself against him before parting; she was too embarrassed to say that.

Seeing that she didn't reply for a long time, Jin Si Nian softened his tone and continued to coax her: "Baby, answer me~ This answer is very important to me."

Tired of being bombarded with questions, Nan Zhi simply gave up and typed out a line: 【Whatever you say goes.】

Let him interpret it himself!

Upon seeing the reply, Jin Si Nian immediately concluded with certainty: "Then I'll assume that Zhi Zhi was reluctant to let me go, and that she loved me deeply all along, which is why she took the initiative to kiss me."

Nan Zhi stared at the words on the screen, her cheeks burning again. She simply put down her phone and ignored him.

As the car drove smoothly along the road, she looked out at the street scene and suddenly stammered to Uncle Wang in the driver's seat, "Uncle Wang, could you please stop at the shopping mall ahead?"

Jin Nian was away on a business trip, and this was a rare opportunity for her to secretly get off the bus and buy some snacks she wanted to satisfy her cravings.

But Uncle Wang looked troubled and quickly shook his head to refuse: "Madam, the young master instructed that you must be taken directly home and not stopped at will along the way."

"He had anticipated that you would be thinking of going out to eat snacks, and he specifically told me that if I parked without permission, my salary would be deducted."

Nan Zhi deflated upon hearing this, and whispered, "He...he's not here, he...he definitely doesn't know."

"We'll just sneak off and leave."

Upon hearing this, Uncle Wang pointed to the car's central control screen, where the call interface was clearly lit up, with the line still connected to Jin Si Nian's side.

The next second, a deep, resonant voice rang out through the speakers: "Nan Zhi, what do I not know?"

"You're going to sneak away!"

Caught red-handed, Nan Zhi's little scheme was instantly exposed, and she froze in her seat, curling up in embarrassment.
