Wenrou knew, of course, that it was too late for Wang Yanping to regret it now.

Commander Fan's future was ruined by her. Even if she apologizes now, everything will be irreversible.

Wenrou didn't want to have any further contact with Wang Yanping, and she wasn't the type to kick someone when they're down. At this point, remaining silent was the best way to give Wang Yanping some dignity.

When Wang Yanping and her family moved out of the residential compound, many people came out to watch out of curiosity.

Even those who were previously close to Wang Yanping are now keeping their distance from her, afraid of getting involved.

Wang Yanping glanced around at her former neighbors in the courtyard and realized that not a single one of them was there to comfort her or see her off. She was finally completely heartbroken.

She looked towards Wenrou's house and saw that she had the door tightly closed and hadn't come out, as if all of this had nothing to do with her.

"Let's go," Wang Yanping sighed and said to her children.

Although the children were also reluctant to go back, they had no choice but to leave with heavy hearts.

Three days after receiving Huo Yanchuan's message, Wenrou had just finished showering and was about to go to bed when she heard a knock on the door.

Hearing the sound, she went over and opened the door, where she saw the familiar figure of a man standing in the doorway, looking at her.

When Wenrou saw that it really was Huo Yanchuan, she froze on the spot.

She heard Hao Gang say that he might not be back for a few more days, but she didn't expect it to be so soon.

"Wife, I'm back." Seeing Wenrou's stunned expression, Huo Yanchuan spoke first.

His voice was a little hoarse, he looked disheveled, with stubble on his chin and bloodshot eyes, as if he hadn't slept for days and nights.

"How did you get back? What happened to you?" Looking at him like this, her gentle tone couldn't help but reveal a hint of heartache.

Without asking, she already guessed that he must have been in such a hurry to get back that he didn't have time to tidy himself up.

As soon as Wenrou finished speaking, Huo Yanchuan pulled her into a tight embrace.

"I'm sorry, I made you worry again." Huo Yanchuan had already heard from Hao Gang that Wenrou had been going to the military base several times a day to find out about him, as if she wanted to live there and wait for him to come back.

Wenrou felt the familiar warmth emanating from Huo Yanchuan, and finally believed that Huo Yanchuan had really returned.

She reached out and gently hugged his waist, resting her head against his chest, listening to his strong heartbeat, and finally felt at ease.

"I'm so glad you're alright. I thought..."

Wenrou didn't finish her sentence. At that moment, she was even thinking that if Huo Yanchuan really didn't come back, she would wait for him to return.

Thankfully, he came back.

Only when he is there is this family complete.

She didn't know when Huo Yanchuan had become so important to her. By the time she realized it, she was already deeply in love and couldn't live without him.

"It will never happen again, Xiaorou. Thank you for waiting for me to come back."

During the time Huo Yanchuan was trapped, he was really afraid that if something happened to him, Wenrou would leave with someone else.

In particular, there was a Zhou Dayong in the family compound who was watching her intently, waiting for her to turn around.

Not only that, there's also Peng Shao, his love rival, who probably still harbors feelings for his wife.

However, he felt conflicted.

If he really sacrificed himself, and if she could really find a man who truly loves her, he would be at peace.

With the things she had given herself in her hands, she could easily sell a house and live comfortably for the rest of her life, supporting her children without worry.

He was just unwilling to accept it, unwilling to leave before seeing his own child born.

He was also unwilling to accept that the time he spent with Wenrou was too short, as he hadn't yet told her all his thoughts.

It's such a shame that he left after finally confirming his feelings for her.

"What are you saying? We're husband and wife. If I didn't wait for you to come back, would I run away with the child?" Wenrou retorted directly upon hearing his words.

"You promised to be the children's biological father, so you can't go back on your word," Wenrou said, recalling what Huo Yanchuan had said earlier.

"No, my word is law for life." Hearing these gentle words, Huo Yanchuan was deeply moved.

He could no longer hold back, reaching out to embrace Wenrou with even greater force, wishing he could stop time at this moment and never be separated from her.

Wenrou felt it too; Huo Yanchuan was holding her so tightly she could hardly breathe.

However, at this moment she suddenly remembered something embarrassing: she had just taken a shower and changed and washed all her underwear.

That includes her usual tank tops, which she washed and they're still not dry.

The weather has been cold these past few days, and clothes aren't drying as quickly as they used to, so she's not wearing anything underneath.

"You...you let me go first." Wenrou could even feel her chest being pressed tightly against Huo Yanchuan's hard chest, and her cheeks flushed red instantly. She said somewhat embarrassedly.

At this moment, Huo Yanchuan also felt the soft body of the person in his arms, and her chest...

Even though he and Wenrou slept together before, she always wore her inner clothes.

He never expected that she wouldn't be wearing a tank top today.

Huo Yanchuan sensed Wenrou's awkwardness, so he slowly let go of her.

At that moment, his body also reacted subconsciously.

"Um... I'll go boil some water for you, you can take a shower." It was only at this moment that Wenrou smelled Huo Yanchuan's scent, and she couldn't help but cover her nose and say.

This man hadn't showered for days; when he saw him return safely, he was completely overwhelmed with excitement.

It was only then that she realized what was happening, and Wenrou couldn't help but feel a little disgusted.

"Okay." Huo Yanchuan could only agree when he saw her disgusted look. He regretted that he should have gone to the military base to take a shower and clean himself up before coming back to see her.

But at that time he couldn't think about that much; he just wanted to come back and see her as soon as possible.

After Wenrou heated the water, Huo Yanchuan came out after showering and, looking at Wenrou somewhat apologetically, reminded her, "Do you... want to take another shower?"

Wenrou had just finished showering when he hugged her.

His stench wafted over to her, so her bath was a waste of time.

Wenrou wanted to say no, but after smelling her own body, she had no choice but to take another shower.

She stored up a lot of clean snow water from the recent blizzard. After heating the snow water, she could take a bath or wash clothes, which saved a lot of water.

After taking another shower, Wenrou walked in and saw Huo Yanchuan lying on the bed waiting for her.

Gently lifting the covers, Huo Yanchuan walked over and pulled her into his arms, placing his other hand on her stomach. He asked softly with concern, "Did they bother you while I was away?"

Now that she's further along in her pregnancy, the baby's movements are becoming more noticeable.

Before the blizzard, Wenrou would often be woken up at night by the sounds of her belly moving. Although Huo Yanchuan felt sorry for her, there was nothing he could do but try to alleviate her discomfort.

It's been almost a month now, and the two little ones have grown quite a bit, making Huo Yanchuan even more worried.

Wenrou shook her head gently and placed her hand on her stomach.

"It's alright, it's not moving too much."

Counting the days, she's already seven months pregnant. In another three months, she'll be able to meet them.

In her past life, she couldn't keep them. In this life, she never expected time to pass so quickly.

These days, she has already started preparing new clothes for the baby.

She was worried that as her pregnancy progressed, she would have more difficulty moving around, and if Huo Yanchuan didn't return, it would be too late for her to prepare everything herself.

Huo Yanchuan wanted to get closer to her again, as the hug he had just received had not completely eased his longing for her these past few days.

But he felt sorry for Wenrou, so he had to give up, lowered his head slightly, and gently kissed her forehead.

Wenrou let Huo Yanchuan hold her this time, and perhaps because she was really tired, she fell asleep in his arms.

These past few days, she hasn't had a full night's sleep because she's worried about Huo Yanchuan and the baby is being a bit fussy at night.

But now that Huo Yanchuan was back, she slept soundly in his arms, sleeping until after 10 a.m. the next morning.

Huo Yanchuan had to train in the morning and needed to get up early, so he prepared her breakfast in advance, heated it up in the pot, and then left.

After Wenrou wakes up and washes up, she can have a hot meal.

After finishing her meal, Wenrou, knowing she was fine, helped Huo Yanchuan tidy up his clothes from yesterday and washed them for him.

Seeing the things Hao Gang had given her that Huo Yanchuan had left at the army base on the table, Wenrou tidied them up, thinking she would deliver them to him later if she had time.

She saw that these documents included some data files and some letters.

One of the envelopes had just been opened, and a corner of it was sticking out.

Wenrou knew that Huo Yanchuan was part of the investigation team, so she didn't think about reading these letters.

But as luck would have it, just as she was about to take away the things she had packed, the letter that had been peeking out slipped out of the box. She didn't even see it and just handed it over to Huo Yanchuan.

When she arrived at the military base, Huo Yanchuan was training, so she handed her things to the guard at the gate and asked him to take them over.

As soon as Wenrou left, the guards handed the items to Huo Yanchuan.

Upon hearing that it was something Wenrou had brought, Huo Yanchuan looked down and examined it.

It was fine until he finished the examination, but his expression suddenly changed.

Holding an empty letter in his hand, he asked the guard L with a serious expression, "Where is the letter inside this envelope?"

This contains information he gathered when Wenrou was suspected of being a spy. There were two copies at the time; one was given to Political Commissar Zhao, and the other was kept by him.

But now, the letter that was left behind is gone.

The guard shook his head; he didn't know anything about letters, nor had he seen any.

"Did she say anything when she handed the things to you?" Huo Yanchuan asked, looking somewhat flustered.

The guard continued to shake his head. "He didn't say anything."

He didn't know why the commander was in such a hurry.

This was the first time he had ever seen their commander look so guilty and flustered. What exactly did that letter say? Was it that important?

Upon seeing this, Huo Yanchuan thought to himself, "This is bad."

If that letter had fallen into someone else's hands, he might have been able to salvage it, but if Wenrou had read it, it would have been too late.

When Wenrou was suspected of having ties to spies, he investigated and found out that the "spy" was himself.

Because of this incident, he helped Wenrou clear her name, only to learn that the person that night was Wenrou, and that she was pregnant with his child.

Apart from Political Commissar Zhao and a few other leaders, even Wenrou herself is unaware of this matter to this day.

He had actually been waiting for an opportunity to tell Wenrou about this, but he hadn't found the right opportunity yet.

As a result, this matter has been delayed again and again.

He had originally planned to tell Wenrou about it after she gave birth safely.

But now, it seems it's too late.

Given her personality, if she knew he had kept this from her for so long, she would probably divorce him.

Thinking of this, Huo Yanchuan ran straight towards the family compound.

At this time, Wenrou arrived home.

She saw the letter lying on the ground and picked it up without thinking much about it.

She didn't want to look at it at first, but her name was on it, which made her a little curious, so she opened it anyway.

After reading the contents of the letter, Wenrou froze on the spot.

She looked at the letter in her hand in disbelief, over and over again, hoping that she was seeing things.

But the handwriting on it is clearly Huo Yanchuan's.

She had read Huo Yanchuan's writings and of course recognized his handwriting.

Just as Wenrou was lost in thought, Huo Yanchuan's rapid breathing came from the doorway.

"Xiaorou, please don't..."

He had just arrived at his doorstep and was about to stop Wenrou, but when he saw the letter in her hand, he felt as if the sky had fallen.

When Wenrou saw Huo Yanchuan and the anxious look on his face, she walked towards him with an unexpectedly calm expression.

She handed the letter to Huo Yanchuan and calmly asked, "Do you have anything else to explain?"

She never imagined that the child in her womb, who had always been seen as a spy, would actually be Huo Yanchuan's.

That person that night was actually Huo Yanchuan?

What exactly happened? Why was he suspected of being a spy?

Furthermore, even though he already knew, he still chose to keep it from her, watching her be humiliated, disliked, and labeled as a spy.

So, he acknowledged her child in front of everyone because he already knew that the child in her womb was Huo Yanchuan's.

Ironically, at that time she was still feeling self-satisfied, thinking that he was being wronged by doing this for her.

Wenrou, recalling these things, raised her hand with a cold smile and slapped Huo Yanchuan hard across the face. Then she raised her foot and kicked Huo Yanchuan hard in the stomach without any hesitation.

"Is it fun to mess with me, Commander Huo?"
