After marrying the fierce god, her handsome young husband was pampered to the extreme.

Lin Nian nestled in the man's arms, feeling wronged and pitiful, tears streaming down her face.

"Why are you crying even harder?" Yin Cheng stuffed the pearl into his wife's arms, then sat her on his lap and pulled his sleeve over his shoulder to wipe her tears.

It took Lin Nian a while to stop crying, her eyes still brimming with tears as she stared at the man.

His voice was still hoarse and choked with emotion as he said, feeling wronged, "You didn't come home all night. Don't you want me and the baby anymore?"

Lin Nian stayed in her room all day without combing her hair; her long black hair was casually loose, making her face look even paler.

"That's not true." Yin Cheng hugged his wife tightly. "Don't overthink it."

Lin Nian lowered her eyes and noticed the demonic sword wrapped around the man's wrist. She asked with some concern, "Is everything resolved?"

Yin Cheng nodded, "Everything has been taken care of, don't worry."

Lin Nian fell silent, but his slightly pursed lips betrayed his thoughts.

Yin Cheng gently coaxed his wife, "Sweetie, don't be angry anymore, okay?"

Lin Nian raised her face, her tears had stopped, but her voice was still trembling slightly, "I want Pearl to get along well with her brothers, so that when we're not around, someone can protect her..."

"Okay, I understand." Yin Cheng felt a little sorry for him. "Does your eye hurt?"

"Mmm..." Lin Nian hadn't snuggled up in a man's arms in a long time. "It hurts."

"Are you stupid? You're even crying secretly. If you're unhappy later, you can come and beat me up, but I won't fight back."

Lin Nian pouted, "No way."

"Oh my sweetheart, are you worried about me?"

"You're annoying," Lin Nian said. "Don't set a bad example for the baby."

Pearl, who was quietly nestled in her father's arms like a charmer, quickly grinned and chuckled when she heard herself being called.

Lin Nian paused for a moment and then said, "Pearl is just like you in that respect."

"Huh?" Yin Cheng looked at his son blankly.

"So naive." Lin Nian poked Pearl's cheek. "Silly girl, she smiles as soon as you give her some food."

Pearl pulled a piece of sesame brittle from her little pouch. "Little Daddy, have some!"

Lin Nian kissed Pearl's cheek. "Baby, eat by yourself."

Pearl nibbled on the candy, slowly chewing, her little body twisting and turning like a small piece of sweet cake.

Yin Cheng pinched his son's cheek. "By the way, I told my stepfather I'd take you all home tonight. Has Pearl ever been to our house?"

Lin Nian shook her head and said softly, "I haven't brought pearls back yet."

At that time, Yin Cheng's fate was unknown, and there was no news of him.

The Prince Cheng's Mansion was filled with his memories of men, and he avoided going back, afraid of being reminded of those memories. So he stayed at his father's house.

A barely perceptible sigh came from the man's ear. He picked up his wife and placed her on the soft couch, preparing to get up to pour her a glass of water.

Lin Nian was afraid that he would leave and never return like he did last night, so she quickly grabbed the man's hand.

"What's wrong?"

Lin Nian realized his reaction was a bit too strong, so he timidly withdrew his hand and shook his head.

Yin Cheng tucked the hair that was brushing against his wife's face behind her ear. "I'll go get some water."

"Oh." Lin Nian's ears turned slightly red, a little embarrassed.

Yin Cheng, however, assumed his wife was thirsty too, and asked, "Want some?"

Lin Nian shook her head. "I just had a bowl of bird's nest soup, so I'm not thirsty."

Yin Cheng said, "Cover Pearl's ears."

Although Lin Nian was puzzled, she did as instructed. "What's wrong?"

"No wonder your skin is so smooth, it feels so good to touch," Yin Cheng said. "Eat more of these nourishing foods in the future, I really love them, I'm totally smitten with you."

"..." Lin Nian took a deep breath, put the pearl down, and said, "Baby, close your eyes."

Pearl was munching on sesame brittle and obediently closed her eyes.

Anyway, nowadays it's just that I can't see or hear things from time to time, and a mature baby has already gotten used to it.

"Hey—honey, where did this feather duster come from? No, let's talk about changing the torture device."

"what!"

A scream echoed through Changfeng Garden.

Shen Qingheng, who was in the study helping her son practice calligraphy, suddenly paused, turned to the man beside her, and asked, "Is that Niannian's voice?"

Lin Yunyuan nodded, frowned, and then said, "I'll go take a look."

"Okay, go quickly."

Lin Nian glared angrily at the man, bluffing, "It's all your fault!"

Yin Cheng didn't dare to say more. "Yes, yes, it's all my fault. Don't move, wife, I'll put some medicine on you to reduce the swelling."

Lin Nian tried to pull her foot back, but the man grabbed her ankle and she couldn't move.

His face flushed red: "Idiot, this is...this is anti-swelling medicine for doing 'that' kind of thing!"

"I know," Yin Cheng said. "It will reduce swelling and pain. Don't worry, I'll be gentle."

Lin Nian blushed and looked out the window, but instead of seeing the sky, she saw her older brother.

"Big brother, is something the matter?" Lin Nian asked, puzzled as to why his older brother had come to his courtyard.

Lin Yunyuan noticed his younger brother's swollen ankle. "Did you fall?"

"I didn't fall, I just twisted my ankle." Lin Nianxin was almost dying of embarrassment inside, but she still obediently spoke to her older brother, "But it's not serious, don't worry, brother."

"How did this happen?"

Lin Nian pursed her lips, too embarrassed to tell her older brother that he had chased after the man and ended up twisting his ankle.

"I... I twisted my ankle by accident." Lin Nian blushed and urged him to go back. "Big brother, you should go home now."

Lin Yunyuan knew his youngest brother was shy, and since Yin Cheng was also there, he nodded and said, "You get some rest, I'm leaving."

Pearl waved from the window, "Take care, Uncle."

Before leaving, Lin Yunyuan pinched Pearl's cheek, thinking: "It's definitely better to be a boy. A kid would be a real handful, tormenting people every day."

Lin Nian finally breathed a sigh of relief after her older brother left.

The incident happened suddenly, and the man didn't catch him. At this moment, his brows were furrowed, and his aura was very low.

"It's okay, it'll be fine in a couple of days." Lin Nian comforted her brother and then started comforting her own man. "It's all my fault for being careless."

Pearl crawled to Lin Nian's side, "Blow on it for Daddy and it won't hurt anymore."

Lin Nian was instantly healed by Little Pearl. "Daddy doesn't hurt anymore! Pearl's blowing is so effective!"

"Really?" Pearl pouted and mumbled, "Then I'll blow on it for Daddy a little longer."

-----------------

On the other side, Lin Yunyuan had just returned to his study when he heard Lin Siheng say, "I really don't understand why the whole family is on my uncle's side."

Shen Qingheng asked in confusion, "Hmm?"

Lin Siheng said, "They say a married man is like water spilled from a bowl, how can he still have the nerve to live in our house?"

Shen Qingheng suddenly opened his eyes wide, looking at his son with disbelief.

"What did you say?"

Lin Siheng didn't see his father's expression. He said nonchalantly, "That's how it is. She's already married."

Suppressing his deepest anguish, Shen Qingheng asked, "What about my stepfather, Lin Siheng? Tell me, is he also like water spilled from a cup, gone forever?"

Lin Siheng suddenly choked up. He stammered for a while, changing the subject, "That's what everyone says..."

Shen Qingheng didn't want to stay any longer and turned back to her room.

Lin Yunyuan had somehow appeared behind Lin Siheng.

When Lin Siheng saw his father, he instinctively covered his head.

Lin Yunyuan didn't make a move, but just sighed and walked past him.
