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

Nan Zhi took out her phone and decided to type something to him so that he wouldn't give her a chance to speak.

Just as she was about to type, Jin Si Nian snatched her phone away: "Say what you have to say, say more."

"I like listening to Zhizhi talk."

He needs to change Zhizhi's bad habit of refusing to talk to him when she's angry.

He dislikes communicating through a screen.

Nan Zhi sighed as she looked at her phone that had been taken away.

Should we just admit our mistake?

Would Kings get angry and choke her?

She hadn't expected Kings to remember the necklace; she thought he was too busy to remember.

Forget it, let's just admit it.

"Actually, Miss Zhou didn't steal the necklace..."

She looked up and carefully observed Jin Si Nian's expression.

"Yes, I know." Jin Si Nian nodded; it was Zhi Zhi who sold it.

He knew that when he saw the necklace was missing from the locker room that day, he guessed that Zhizhi had disposed of it.

Zhizhi probably chose that necklace because it was inconspicuous and she thought he wouldn't remember it, so she boldly disposed of it.

After all, this is Yushui Bay, a place thieves can't get in.

He couldn't remember anything else, but he still remembered the things he gave to Zhizhi.

Hearing him say he knew, Nan Zhi felt a chill in her heart.

He knows, but what does he know?

I know she took it and sold it.

"Zhizhi, are you short of money?" Jin Si Nian couldn't understand. He had given her a black card that she could use unlimitedly, and he could just pay her back at the end of the month.

However, his black card has been with Zhizhi for the past three years, and she has never used it.

Instead, she sold the necklace he had given her.

Nan Zhi's face turned pale. Was he angry?

She lowered her head and said, "I...I'm sorry."

"What are you sorry for?" The man's large hand patted her head: "It was bought for you in the first place. You can do whatever you want with it."

"Just a little bit."

"Wh-what..." Nan Zhi asked in confusion.

Jin Nian's eyes darkened: "Zhi Zhi can't take this money and leave me."

Stay by my side, and I'll give Zhizhi even more money.

"Promise me, Zhizhi."

As he spoke, he tightened his grip on Nan Zhi's waist.

Nan Zhi pursed her lips and nodded against her conscience.

The man's large hand rested casually on her slender waist, his fingertips gently kneading the soft, flabby flesh around her waist.

His gaze fell on her loose clothing, and his tone carried a hint of casual doubt.

"Child, why have you been wearing such loose clothes lately?"

His fingertips unconsciously moved upwards, gently touching her slightly protruding belly. He chuckled softly, "And it seems like you've got a little tummy."

He's finally gained some weight; actually, he's a bit of a picky eater.

He doesn't eat many things, and he's also allergic to peanuts and seafood.

He didn't know any of this at first; he only discovered it when Zhizhi went to Jinlong Bay to have New Year's Eve dinner with her grandmother during her first year there.

That night, in addition to seafood, some dishes also had peanut sauce in them.

Because he brought his granddaughter-in-law back, Grandma kept urging them to have a child while she picked up shrimp for the little one.

Unable to refuse, Zhizhi ate it.

That night, she developed a rash all over her body. Her arms itched, so she scratched them until they bled, and she also started to feel feverish.

It terrified him, and he rushed him to the hospital that very night.

After undergoing tests, it was discovered that she had food allergies, specifically to seafood and peanuts.

After getting the medicine, he saw Nan Zhi's lonely and thin figure sitting in a chair getting an injection.

Jin Si Nian went over, took her hand, and applied the medicine to her skin. Finally, he couldn't help but ask, "Nan Zhi, you're really something! You're allergic to seafood, do you even know that?"

Nan Zhi nodded, her face pale, and it took her a long time to speak before she finally said, "I know, I know."

Jin Si Nian's anger flared even more: "I know, I know you still eat shrimp."

"Do you know that severe food allergies can cause shock?"

"You know you're allergic, why did you eat it? What will I do if something goes wrong?"

Perhaps realizing his lapse in composure, Jin Si Nian added, "If something happens and someone dies in my house, I'm afraid the Nan family will come after me for an explanation."

Nan Zhi looked at him weakly, thinking, "He's surnamed Jin, why is he afraid of this?"

Besides, the Nan family wouldn't care whether she lived or died.

They might even be happy to see themselves dead, since they could extort another sum from Jin Si Nian.

"I'm sorry," Nan Zhi said, her lips pale and her face bloodless. Her dry, pale lips parted slightly, her breath weak, and she still spoke with her familiar stutter: "I've... I've taken up your time."

Jin Si Nian patiently applied the ointment to her, then gently pulled down her slipped sleeve to cover her slender, delicate forearm.

Upon hearing her words, the anger and heartache that had been building up inside me instantly intertwined.

He looked up at the pale-faced girl, his tone low and tinged with barely perceptible impatience: "You don't need to apologize to me."

"You're playing with your own life; the person you're most sorry to is yourself."

He raised his hand and gently stroked her slightly cool wrist with his fingertips. In a serious tone, he instructed her, word by word, "From now on, you are not allowed to touch anything that you cannot eat."

"No matter whose face it is, no matter who the other person is, you must not force yourself."

Jin Si Nian's brows furrowed, feeling both anxious and helpless.

This girl apologizes the moment he shows even the slightest sign of anger.

*

The moment Nan Zhi heard that she had gained weight and had a little belly, her heart tightened instantly.

She instinctively tensed up, looked up at him, and spoke with a girlish sensitivity and grievance, her words still stammering, "You...you don't like me because I've gained weight, do you?"

Since her twin pregnancy stabilized and she stopped experiencing morning sickness, her appetite has gradually improved, and she has quietly gained two pounds in a short period of time.

It wasn't obvious she was pregnant in the short term, but as the months went by, even loose clothing couldn't hide her big belly.

Upon hearing this, Jin Si Nian immediately chuckled helplessly, tightened his arms to hug the person even tighter, and, with his survival instincts at their peak, softly reassured them, "No, how could I dislike it?"

"It's just right now, it's soft and comfortable to hug, and it doesn't hurt my hands at all."

Nan Zhi still felt down, her lips pursed slightly, and a hint of awkwardness in her eyes: "But, but I clearly heard the disdain in your tone."

The little girl is very sensitive and perceptive; even the slightest emotion can be magnified.

Looking at her puffed-up face, Jin Si Nian's heart melted completely.

He lowered his body, bringing his cheek close to her fair and delicate face, his warm breath spraying onto her skin.

Find a good spot, gently take it in your mouth, and suck on it carefully.

It made a "pop" sound.

He leaned heavily against Nan Zhi like a clingy, docile large dog, his voice deep, tender, and indulgent: "Now that I'm kissing you like this, does Zhi Zhi still think I'm disgusted by you?"

"So naive, I love you so much, how could I possibly dislike you?"
