Jiang Yushan sighed helplessly, but a gentle smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. She gently put the book away, her action full of cherishment and reluctance.

Then she slowly lay down and sank into the soft bedding.

Seeing this, Huo Ci's lips curled up into a doting smile. He gently walked to the bed, stretched out his hand, and slowly turned off the light.

The light in the room was instantly replaced by gentle darkness.

He turned around and came to Jiang Yushan's side, gently holding her in his arms as if afraid of disturbing the most precious treasure in the world.

She closed her eyes, and the sound of Huo Ci's steady heartbeat was in her ears. This should have been a tiny sound, but it was getting louder and louder in her ears.

Usually, Jiang Yushan would fall into a deep sleep after lying down for a while.

But now, I don’t know if it’s because I slept too long in the afternoon, but I don’t feel sleepy at all.

Jiang Yushan turned over, feeling a little hot, and rubbed against Huo Ci's arms, trying to create some distance.

Huo Ci, who had just closed his eyes, opened them helplessly.

He had to hold Jiang Yushan in his arms every day, only able to look at her but not eat her. He had already relied entirely on his willpower to endure it, so how could he bear such stimulation from Jiang Yushan?

Jiang Yushan only moved slightly a few times, but Huo Ci's body was already rippling uncontrollably like the surface of a lake brushed by a spring breeze.

"Shanshan?" His breathing hitched slightly, his voice slightly hoarse, as he whispered, "Why aren't you sleeping yet?"

For Jiang Yushan, Huo Ci's voice was extremely familiar.

Every time when his love was deep, Huo Ci would always use his hoarse and magnetic voice to whisper her name in her ear, with a hint of tenderness.

Now, hearing this voice again, Jiang Yushan's body trembled slightly almost as a conditioned reflex, and some indescribable reaction arose deep in his heart.

She felt as if she was being pulled by an invisible force and could not resist.

In fact, she also had some feelings towards Huo Ci.

"Well... I can't sleep." Jiang Yushan's voice was very soft, like a mosquito, with a bit of shyness and embarrassment.

She felt a little embarrassed by her body's sudden reaction, but she couldn't hide the throbbing in her heart.

In Huo Ci's arms, she seemed like a docile little animal, letting him do whatever he wanted.

"Close your eyes and you'll fall asleep in no time."

Huo Ci's voice was so gentle that it seemed like water could drip out of it. He gently placed a kiss on Jiang Yushan's forehead with a hint of comfort.

However, his hand quietly let go of Jiang Yushan, as if he was about to lift the quilt and get up.

Jiang Yushan's heart tightened. She sensitively sensed Huo Ci's intention. Perhaps he wanted to take a cold shower to relieve some kind of reaction in his body.

Ever since Jiang Yushan became pregnant, Huo Ci had suddenly gotten up to take a shower at night quite a few times.

Although sometimes it happened after she fell asleep, Jiang Yushan slept in the same bed with him, so how could she be completely unaware of it?

"Huo Ci..." There was no way before, but now the most dangerous time has passed. Jiang Yushan gently grabbed the corner of his clothes.

"What's wrong?" Huo Ci paused as he stood up and looked at Jiang Yushan's hand holding his in confusion, with a hint of confusion in his eyes.

"Um..." Jiang Yushan said embarrassedly, with a hint of shyness in her voice: "Now, it's been three months."

Her meaning was obvious. She was trying to keep him and hoped that he could accompany her that night.

Huo Ci looked at the little hand grabbing the corner of his clothes, with expectant eyes. Shui Lingling stared at his Jiang Yushan, and her breathing became heavy.

For a moment, he almost wanted to hug her and possess her regardless of anything.

However, his strong willpower allowed him to resist the impulse.

He sighed softly, with a hint of helplessness in his voice: "But you have two now..."

He was worried, as he always felt that the situation was different when Jiang Yushan was pregnant with two children than when she was pregnant with one. The dangerous period might even be longer.

He didn't want to cause her any harm because of a momentary impulse.

"It's okay, just be gentle."
