Shen Yunjin was worried that Nanzhi would get tired, so he kept asking her about her preferences for the house on the way there.

Upon hearing Nanzhi say she preferred a quiet courtyard house, he decided on his target and took her to Chengdong Street.

Before long, Nan Zhi decided on her preferred room type. Shen Yun Jin didn't have enough money with him, so he only paid a deposit.

Today, Nam Gyi is dressed as a woman, but she wears a veil, so no one knows what she looks like.

Shen Yunjin also traveled in plain clothes. He rarely appeared in newspapers and magazines, and most people did not recognize him.

After settling on a house, Shen Yunjin, worried that Nanzhi would get tired, wanted to carry her outside to get in the car.

Nanzhi felt really embarrassed looking at the crowds of people coming and going on the street.

This era is also a very special one.

Going out like this is too high-profile; I'm afraid it won't be long before reporters take pictures and publicize it.

"It's okay, I can walk by myself."

Seeing her embarrassment, Shen Yunjin didn't dare to force her. "Then hold my hand."

"Just hold hands, keep it low-key. Aren't you afraid your father will see you and punish you?"

"I'm not afraid." Recalling this, Shen Yunjin's lips curled up. "He couldn't be happier right now."

Nanzhi didn't quite understand: "Huh?"

Shen Yunjin then told Nanzhi everything that had happened.

After hearing this, Nan Zhi was both happy and worried. "But if he knew that you were looking for me, he would probably be even angrier."

"It's alright, I'll take care of everything." Shen Yunjin knew her worries and patted her head.

Nanzhi knew his capabilities, but she wasn't too worried. "There's something I don't understand."

Shen Yunjin turned his head to look at her: "What?"

“Your father is such a womanizer, why don’t you learn from him and get married early, and take a few concubines? Life would be so much more enjoyable,” Nanzhi said. “If it were me, I would have gotten married long ago.”

She couldn't even imagine how happy those days were.

"I don't like anyone but you." Shen Yunjin pinched her cheek through the veil. "You can't like anyone else either, do you hear me?"

Nanzhi pushed his hand away and subconsciously said, "But I never said I liked you."

Shen Yunjin felt a pang of sadness and squeezed her hand tightly. "It's okay, I'll keep waiting."

"What if we can't wait?"

"Then in the next life, and the life after that, for all eternity..."

“What I mean is…” Nanzhi looked at him, remained silent for a moment, and then suddenly said, “If this world is an illusion, if we have no next life, no afterlife, then nothing exists…”

Shen Yunjin sensed her pessimism, and he didn't know why she had such thoughts.

Do all pregnant women experience this?

Regardless, all he wanted was for her to be happy.

"If not, then just remember that my love for you is eternal."

He spoke with such certainty, as if he would never change his mind and would always stand firmly by her side.

The evening sunlight was warm and felt so real on my skin.

Nanzhi couldn't help but think that perhaps all of this really happened, and that they really did exist.

That's enough.

The wind lifted her skirt, and she, like a blooming peony, took the man's arm and got into the rickshaw.

As the car slowly drove away, a stylishly dressed woman emerged from around the corner.

The woman was none other than Miss Zhu Yashi of the Zhu family.

Ever since the unpleasant argument with the Shen family over dinner yesterday, as soon as she got home, her parents tried to force her to go to the Marshal's Mansion to apologize. Annoyed by this, she secretly ran away.

Unexpectedly, I actually saw Shen Yunjin!

He was also arm in arm with a woman!

Who exactly is that woman?

Judging from Shen Yunjin's very affectionate attitude towards her, the two must have been together for a long time.

He already has someone else, yet he still went to get engaged to her; he's a complete scumbag.

Zhu Yashi became increasingly angry and hailed a rickshaw to follow them.

She watched with her own eyes as Shen Yunjin and that woman went to a restaurant for a meal, and then strolled back to the Baofu Hotel!

They're not even married yet, and they're already checking into hotels?

That's absolutely shameful!

She had initially thought Shen Yunjin was quite handsome and was considering giving him a chance, but now she was so angry that she was stomping her feet outside the hotel.

Shen Yunjin entrusted Wen Xuyang to handle the handover of the courtyard house.

Money makes the world go round, and in less than half a month, Nanzhi moved into a courtyard house.

Previously, Shen Yunjin had delayed many things because he was looking for her. Now the situation is somewhat turbulent. Not only the United States, but other countries have also been trying to obtain some diplomatic rights in Beiping. In order to deal with these matters, Shen Yunjin has no way to accompany Nanzhi every day.

Nanzhi wasn't angry; she was very understanding of him.

Shen Yunjin, on the contrary, felt extremely guilty.

They hired several servants to take care of her.

He had promised Nanzhi he would accompany her to the hospital for a checkup, but something came up unexpectedly, so he had to call Wen Xuyang to come with her.

Wen Xuyang was stunned when he learned that Nanzhi was pregnant.

"Young Marshal Shen's?"

"Or is it yours?"

Wen Xuyang was so frightened that he quickly waved his hand, "Don't joke around like that. If Marshal Shen finds out, I won't live past tomorrow."

What he was more curious about was how Shen Yunjin had crossed moral boundaries and gotten together with his stepmother.

Isn't he afraid that Shen Zhencai will find out?

Since we can't ask Shen Yunjin, we can only ask Nanzhi in front of us.

How did you two get together?

"That's how we got together."

It's the same as saying nothing at all.

Seeing that he couldn't get any information out of him, Wen Xuyang changed the subject, "Aren't you afraid of being discovered by Marshal Shen?"

"I'm scared."

"Then you still dare?"

Love arises without knowing its origin, and deepens with each passing moment.

When Wen Xuyang heard this, he could only admire Nan Zhi's commendable courage.

He assumed that Nan Zhi and Shen Yunjin were already in love, but when he relayed this to Shen Yunjin, Shen Yunjin was so excited that she almost jumped off the sofa.

"What did you say?"

"I said the checkup was fine, there were no problems."

“Not this sentence,” Shen Yunjin said emotionally, “It’s the next sentence.”

"Love arises without knowing its origin, and deepens with each passing moment?"

"Yes, that's it." Shen Yunjin looked at him in disbelief. "She really said that?"

Seeing his worthless appearance, Wen Xuyang knew he had completely failed.

"Yes, yes, yes, that's what she said. She was so happy when she said it."

Once confirmed, Shen Yunjin's smile remained unbroken.

Wen Xuyang was speechless for a moment.

That evening, Shen Yunjin returned to the courtyard house and was so happy that he almost hugged Nanzhi and spun her around.

"Can you repeat what you said to Wen Xuyang to me again?"

"What did you say? I don't remember."

"That line, 'love knows nothing,' do you remember?"

Nanzhi teased him deliberately, "I don't remember."

Shen Yunjin was somewhat disappointed, but in order not to burden her, he pretended to be nonchalant and said, "It's okay, we'll talk about it when you remember."

Nan Zhi couldn't help but smile. She hugged him and gently stroked the back of his neck. "Shen Yunjin, I like you."
