In the soft, large bedding, Jin Si Nian lay firmly against Nan Zhi, his shirt cuffs loose and slipped down, revealing the firm and smooth muscles of his forearms, which were placed horizontally on one side of her lower abdomen.

He held her tightly, the girl's sweet and gentle fragrance lingering around his nose. His tense heart, which had been pounding all day, completely relaxed, and in no time, he fell into a deep sleep with even breathing.

Jin Nian slept peacefully, but Nan Zhi felt tense and uncomfortable all over.

Perhaps it was because of the heavy burden of carrying twins that her lower back and abdomen ached and felt heavy. With him holding her so tightly, she felt stiff all over and tossed and turned, unable to sleep. She woke up feeling uncomfortable.

Moonlight streamed into the bedroom through the gauze curtains, and Nan Zhi became fully awake. She turned her head and looked at the sleeping man beside her, her heart skipped a beat.

She shifted her body slightly and reached out to try to remove the large hand that was wrapped around her waist.

The moment his fingertips touched his arm, Jin Si Nian, who was fast asleep, instantly woke up. Still half-asleep, he instinctively tightened his arms, pulling Jin Si Nian closer to him. His voice was hoarse and languid, still husky from just waking up: "Where are we going?"

"How...how did you get in?" Nan Zhi's heart trembled slightly as she asked in astonishment, even though she had clearly locked the bedroom door.

Jin Si Nian groggily opened his eyes, his gaze sweeping indifferently towards the open French windows and balcony behind him. He said casually, "If you want to come in, there's a way."

Nan Zhi followed his gaze and saw the wide-open French windows of the balcony. Her pupils instantly contracted, her face turned pale, and her eyes were filled with disbelief: "You...you're crazy!"

"The building is so tall..."

Jin Si Nian lowered his eyes, a hint of grievance in them. He nuzzled his cheek against her shoulder, his voice weak and pleading, "It's your fault for refusing to come home with me and insisting on staying in Jinlong Bay for a while longer!"

"Grandma strongly objected to me staying in the building, so I had to climb onto the balcony to come in and find you."

"What if... what if I slip and fall? What will I do then!" Nan Zhi clutched the hem of her clothes, her voice trembling with fear.

"Don't be afraid." Jin Si Nian propped himself up with one hand, his eyes lazy and gentle, his tone reassuring and firm. "I used to climb over this wall and stairs a lot when I was a kid, I'm very used to it, I'm very steady."

He lowered his gaze to her swollen belly, gently stroking it with his fingertips, his tone earnest yet tender: "I am the father of the two babies in your belly, and I will be there to see them born safely. Nothing will go wrong."

Nan Zhi clutched the soft bedding beneath her, her eyes filled with genuine lingering fear, and said softly but stubbornly, "That...that's not safe either!"

"Yes, I know." Jin Si Nian nodded obediently, but his eyes held a stubbornness.

He would come no matter how dangerous it was, and he couldn't sleep at night without her in his arms.

"You're not allowed to climb on the balcony anymore," Nan Zhi said softly, lowering her eyelashes.

It was pitch black, the buildings were tall, and visibility was extremely poor at night. If one were to slip and fall, the consequences would be unimaginable.

A mischievous smile played on Jin Si's eyes as he gently placed his warm palm on her pregnant belly, deliberately asking, "Zhizhi, are you worried about me?"

Nan Zhi's ears felt slightly hot. She bit her lower lip and awkwardly uttered words against her will: "No, I'm not worried. It's better if you, you fall."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jin Si Nian's expression darkened slightly. He gently rubbed his lower abdomen with his fingertips, his tone tinged with bitterness and jealousy: "What will happen to you and the two babies if I fall?"

"Are you going to take the child and go find Pei Jingzhi?"

Just imagining that scene made his heart clench and his anger surge.

That's all he can say!

Nan Zhi frowned at his unreasonable jealousy and glared at him: "No, if you don't miss me, I'll go find Brother Jingzhi, so don't climb anymore!"

Jin Si Nian seized the opportunity to press forward, refusing to give an inch: "Then Zhi Zhi will come home with me, and we'll go back to the villa to live."

After getting married, you should be together day and night. Why should you have to live apart?

Grandma won't let me move in. There are so many rooms available, but she won't let me stay in any of them.

It's as if his moving in would hurt Zhizhi!

"No, no." Nan Zhi gently shook her head, holding firm to her bottom line. "Grandma said I should stay a few more days to keep her company."

Jin Si Nian was momentarily speechless with anger, but helplessly muttered, "Fine, then you'll stay with me."

He suppressed his fierce aura, bent down again, and imagined pulling her tightly into his arms as he had the night before.

Nan Zhi felt uncomfortable from the pressure on her waist and immediately whispered to stop him, "Your hands are too heavy, they're pressing on my stomach, it makes me uncomfortable."

Upon hearing this, Jin Si Nian immediately withdrew his arm from around her waist and abdomen, gently adjusting his posture. His long arm was firmly wrapped around her chest, displaying an absolute control and possessive demeanor.

With her body securely encircled by him, Nan Zhi was wide awake. Pressing against his warm chest, she whispered, "When...when did you come in?"

"Yeah, you just lay down and dozed off for a little while," Jin Si Nian replied in a muffled voice, his voice languid and hoarse from being woken up.

"You clearly drove away. I... I heard the car drive away." Nan Zhi frowned, full of doubt.

Jin Si Nian buried his face deep in the crook of her slender neck, lingering on her warm skin and greedily inhaling her clean, sweet scent. His voice was low and tender: "The car stopped as soon as it left the manor. I didn't go back at all."

"You stay here, I'll go back to the villa alone, toss and turn all night, I just can't sleep."

It was the same when I was away on business trips in other places. Without her by my side at night, I would suffer from insomnia and be unable to sleep all night.

I always had to secretly bring her close-fitting dress with me, and I could barely fall asleep while holding the clothes.

"Child, I was squatting in the flower bushes downstairs and got bitten by mosquitoes several times." His tone was soft, with a hint of deliberate pride. "I waited until Grandma's bedroom lights were completely off before I climbed up onto the balcony."

Nan Zhi's ears burned, and she was both amused and exasperated. She bluntly asked the soul-searching question: "Are you... are you very proud of climbing over the window and scaling the wall to get here?"

"Not proud at all." Jin Si Nian tightened his arms, nuzzled her neck with a wronged expression, and said in a sour but self-righteous tone, "Those mistresses who climb into other people's beds are the ones who are proud. I am the legal wife, but I am forced to climb into other people's beds through the window in the middle of the night. I am wronged and miserable, and forced into this situation."

Nan Zhi felt a pang of tenderness in her heart, so she gently turned over to face the man beside her. Her eyes were clear and earnest, and her soft voice was filled with genuine concern: "I... you're not allowed to climb such a high balcony anymore."

"I...I'll worry about you."

Seeing the panic and worry hidden in her eyes, Jin Si Nian couldn't help but smile, a gentle smile spreading across his face. He lowered his head slightly and quickly stole a kiss on her soft lips, his voice tender and affectionate: "Then Zhi Zhi will come home with me tomorrow. I promise I'll never climb again."

"I'm not going back."

Upon hearing this, Jin Si Nian's eyebrows drooped instantly, all his arrogance vanished, replaced by a look of grievance and rascality. He gently brushed his nose against her forehead, his tone stubborn and shameless: "Then I'll come and climb again tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, and the day after that..."
