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

Nan Zhi heard the noise outside the door, got out of bed, and turned off the light.

He saw the light wasn't on, so he probably won't come in, right?

Jin Si Nian stood outside the door, looking at the room where the lights were already off, and called out from the doorway, "Zhi Zhi, are you asleep?"

The man turned the doorknob.

It can't be opened; it's locked from the inside.

Nan Zhi sat on the bed, neither answering nor making a sound.

I don't want him to come in and sleep with me.

Sleeping with him is always tiring.

After waiting for a short while, Kings left.

With no shadows outside the door, Nan Zhi breathed a sigh of relief and continued to sleep.

He probably won't come in, since she locked the door.

She fell asleep peacefully, and a short while later the bedroom door was opened.

Jin Nian had just gone to find the keys; he tiptoed closer to the bed.

The man's enormous figure loomed over her, watching her sleeping face with gentle tranquility.

He gently squatted down, raised his hand and softly stroked Nan Zhi's cheek, his voice low and husky: "Zhi Zhi, sleeping in separate rooms is not my intention."

Are you angry with me? Is that why you locked the door and won't let me in?

Looking at the familiar bed sheet, Jin Si Nian finally felt at ease.

I took a shower, and when I came back, I cuddled someone and went to sleep.

I didn't get to eat again today; looks like I'll have to wait until tomorrow.

Hopefully, Zhizhi won't be angry tomorrow.

The familiar restraint kissed him again.

Nan Zhi woke up from the moment Jin Si Nian picked her up, partly because she was a little hungry.

She's now equivalent to three people, and she hasn't eaten much all day.

How could I not be hungry?

Will my baby suffer from malnutrition?

Nan Zhi hesitated and decided to wait until Jin Si Nian fell asleep before going to the kitchen to get something to eat.

After waiting for a while, Jin Si Nian loosened his grip on her slightly.

She only got up when she thought he was asleep.

Unexpectedly, the moment she moved, Jin Si Nian immediately became alert and tightened his grip on her: "Where are you going?"

"Why are you up in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?"

Zhizhi doesn't have the habit of getting up at night.

Nan Zhi was forced back into the man's arms, adjusting his position so as not to press on the baby. He forced himself to remain calm and not stammer: "How...how did you get in here?!"

Kings had said that his time was precious and he wouldn't waste it listening to her stutter.

The man put his arm around her waist: "This is our home. If you have a key, why can't you come in?"

Yes, this is Kings's home.

He has the key.

Of course, you can come in if you want.

Nan Zhi climbed off him: "You, let go."

"I...I want to get up."

Jin Nian refused, grabbing her chin with his large hand: "Why did you go to sleep without waiting for me to come back? Didn't I tell you to wait for me?"

"Zhizhi, sleeping in separate rooms is not my idea."

"Move your things back tomorrow."

"Um?"

Nan Zhi clutched her stomach in discomfort. Seeing her pained expression, Jin Si Nian released her hand and helped her sit up.

Nan Zhi found her phone and typed, so she wouldn't have to listen to her rambling: I understand what Madam means, so I won't move back.

This place is quite nice, it's quiet.

Showing it to the man, Jin Si Nian glanced down at it, his expression suddenly turning cold and grim. His brows furrowed tightly, and his aura instantly darkened. He uttered two icy words: "Quiet?"

He gripped Nan Zhi's wrist tightly, his grip firm and cold.

His gaze locked onto her, his tone laced with barely suppressed displeasure and warning: "Nan Zhi, have you forgotten the conditions you promised me?"

Nan Zhi was gripped painfully, and typed shakily: I haven't forgotten.

The man glanced down at her, his brow relaxing slightly. He released her hand: "Good that you haven't forgotten. Tomorrow, you'd better move everything back properly."

"Go to sleep now!"

He was already burning with pent-up anger and nowhere to vent it.

Seeing that she was asleep, I thought to myself, "Never mind, I'll deal with it tomorrow."

But just now, I really angered him.

Nan Zhi twisted her wrist, feigning fear: "No, I won't sleep..."

Upon hearing this, the man asked, "Not going to sleep?"

"Does Zhizhi want to do something else?"

It's not that he can't keep up, it's just that it will be very late by the time things get going.

Naturally, he must fulfill Zhizhi's desires.

However, Nan Zhi's stomach made an inopportune noise.

She's hungry.

Nan Zhi clutched her stomach and got out of bed: "I...I'm hungry."

"You, you, go to sleep first."

As she spoke, she put on her shoes and hurriedly ran downstairs.

Only Jin Nian was left alone, guarding the empty room.

Has Zhizhi not eaten?

What does Aunt Qing do?

How could his little one be hungry?

Downstairs, Nan Zhi searched the kitchen but found nothing to eat.

Oh, I forgot, the Jin family doesn't allow leftovers.

Aunt Qing doesn't put leftovers in the refrigerator; she just throws them all away.

Then we'll just have to...

Nan Zhi stood on the stool, reached over the top of the refrigerator, and pulled out a packet of instant noodles and two King of Kings sausages.

That should be enough to eat.

She jumped off the stool, and as soon as she turned around, she bumped straight into a warm and solid wall of flesh. Startled, she took two steps back and only then did she realize that the person standing in front of her was Jin Nian.

Nan Zhi lowered her head instantly, her ears burning slightly. She subconsciously hid the instant noodles and sausages in her hands behind her back, her fingertips gripping the packaging tightly. She was in a panic: Why did he suddenly come downstairs?

Jin Nian doesn't like it; she eats this.

He said these are junk food and harmful to health.

Jin Si Nian's gaze fell on her tense back. He leaned forward slightly and asked in a calm tone, "What are you hiding?"

"No, it's nothing..."

The man's tone turned serious as he reached out to her: "Give it to me!"

Nan Zhi looked at him and handed him the thing she was carrying: "Instant noodles..."

"Anything else?"

There's something behind him. Does Zhizhi think he didn't see it?

Resigned, she handed him the sausage as well: "Salt, sausage..."

I'm sorry, baby, Mommy couldn't save the last bit of food.

Jin Si Nian's gaze darkened as he stared at Nan Zhi, who was cowering in front of him as if she had done something wrong. His tone turned colder: "I told you not to eat, so you secretly ate it?"

When Zhizhi first came to his side, she also secretly ate.

After he told me once that the smell was strong, I never bought it again.

It turns out she had bought them before, but she had secretly hidden them in a place she thought was high up where no one could see them.

Don't eat in front of him, hide and eat secretly.

Nan Zhi's back stiffened, her head drooped even lower, not daring to look up at him. Her stammering voice was barely audible, timidly saying, "I...I'm hungry..."

"Confiscated!"

"Do you have any more hidden?" the man asked.

Nan Zhi paused for a moment, then shook her head: "No, that's all..."

That's all, really!

I swear!

"Okay, I'll trust you this time."

"Sit still and wait!"

Jin Nian went into the kitchen, and soon a delicious aroma wafted from it.

He can cook, and he cooks very well.

When I first came here, only Kings was living here.

Since Aunt Qing hasn't come to take care of him yet, he prefers quiet. Aside from the housekeeper coming to clean, he cooks.

Nan Zhi had eaten the food he cooked, but it wasn't made specifically for her; he wanted to eat it himself and just shared a bite with her.

However, the taste is absolutely amazing.

After that, when Jin Si Nian was frequently away on business trips, he would invite Aunt Qing to come to his home to cook.

A moment later, he brought over two steaming bowls of noodles, pushing the bowl with two poached eggs onto her plate: "Eat up, have something simple."

"It's not advisable to eat too much at night!"

Nan Zhi stared at his bowl of noodles. Didn't Jin Si Nian never eat late-night snacks?

Or perhaps he didn't get enough to eat at the old house?

"What are you looking at? Aren't you hungry?"

The man didn't understand; couldn't he just say he was hungry too?

I didn't eat at all in the old house, and I had no appetite.

Baba rushed back, but it resulted in a scene where they slept in separate rooms!

Before he could fall asleep, he got up in the middle of the night to cook a midnight snack, and Zhizhi was still staring at his bowl of noodles.

Nan Zhi was indeed craving noodles and was eating them.

After she finished eating, Jin Si Nian, who had also finished eating, looked at her and teased, "Child, shouldn't you do some exercise after dinner?"

Nan Zhi put down her chopsticks: "I...I'm sleepy..."
