Nan Zhi's belly was getting bigger and bigger, and she was afraid that Shen Yunjin would be distracted, so she did not go to the battlefield to accompany him.

Shen Zhencai was also leading another battle and didn't have time to cause her any trouble.

Fearing that Nanzhi would be bored, Shen Yunjin asked Wen Xuyang to bring his sister over often to keep her company and relieve her boredom.

Wen Xuyang's younger sister is not even eight years old; her name is Wen Lanlan.

The little girl was pretty and delicate. She was holding Wen Xuyang's hand and staring at him with wide, innocent eyes.

"Are you Yunjin's wife?"

Nanzhi smiled and said, "Yes."

"You're so pretty." The little girl pouted. "I won't fight you for Yunjin anymore."

Waaah, I can't compete with them at all.

Nanzhi looked at her aggrieved yet envious eyes and couldn't help but smile, but she was also a little puzzled by her words.

Wen Xuyang explained, "I was just joking with her, saying that she could marry Marshal Shen when she grew up. I didn't expect her to take it seriously, haha."

Wen Xuyang said the last sentence in a low voice.

So that's how it is.

But was he sure Wen Lanlan couldn't hear him?

"Brother, you actually lied to me!" Wen Lanlan, like a baring kitten, grabbed Wen Xuyang and started scratching him.

"Ahhh, bro, I was wrong, please stop hitting me..."

A burst of joyful noise filled the air.

When Wen Xuyang left, he left Wen Lanlan behind and instructed her, "I'm going to the battlefield tomorrow to record the war. Lanlan will stay here to keep you company. If she makes you angry, punish her severely."

Then he instructed Wen Lanlan, "The pretty older sister is pregnant, so you can't make her angry. You have to make her happy, understand?"

Wen Lanlan retorted, "Brother, I'm not a child anymore, I know that."

"Then you must protect your sister. When I come back, I'll bring you chocolate."

Wen Lanlan's eyes lit up noticeably: "Ten boxes, please."

They still say they're not children.

Wen Xuyang then comforted Nanzhi, "Don't worry, Shen Yunjin has fought more battles than he's eaten salt. This kind of war is nothing to him. He's sure to win. Just wait for him to come back."

“I know,” Nan Zhi said. “It’s getting late, you should go back now.”

Wen Xuyang glanced at the two of them reluctantly before hurrying into the dark night.

The rise and fall of a nation is the responsibility of every citizen.

Although he was just a reporter and couldn't be a frontline fighter, he was still willing to contribute his own strength to expose the enemy's conspiracies and schemes.

Prices outside have been rising again and again, and the poor are almost unable to afford food, while many rich people are taking advantage of the chaos to make money unscrupulously.

During the time Shen Yunjin was away from Beiping, several riots and demonstrations occurred in the city, almost all of which were against capitalism.

Although the police temporarily calmed them down, the result was that the public's protests grew louder and louder.

At the same time, the number of patients and injured people is also increasing.

Since Nanzhi couldn't go out, she could only take more of the money Shen Yunjin had left her and have the soldiers protecting her send it out to give to the poor and suffering people.

Wen Lanlan is very considerate; she's a complete little angel.

With her around, Nanzhi didn't feel bored.

Her pregnancy was progressing further, and because it was twins, her belly was particularly large.

Nan Zhi was afraid that Shen Yunjin would worry, so she did not tell him about the situation in the letter she sent.

At first, 003 could still see what was happening on Shen Yunjin's side.

But gradually, he got further and further away, and 003 could no longer sense him.

He hadn't called or sent letters in a long time, and there hadn't been any news about him in the newspapers for a long time either. Nanzhi gradually became anxious.

She began to feel uneasy and had frequent nightmares, dreaming that Shen Yunjin was gone.

When I woke up, I still felt a pounding in my heart.

If she had known earlier that she would care about him one day, she wouldn't have chosen to get pregnant so quickly. At this point, she could have stayed with him and helped him avoid harm and seek benefit.

Even a child like Wen Lanlan could notice her changes.

"Sister, did you not sleep well again last night?"

"It's nothing, it's just that the baby is kicking me and I'm not sleeping well."

Wen Lanlan wasn't so easily fooled: "No, it must be that you're worried about Brother Yunjin."

When she came before, Nanzhi was in a good mood and would talk to her a lot.

During this time, Nanzhi rarely spoke. She often sat by the window in a daze, and sometimes she would spread out the letters sent by Shen Yunjin and read them for an entire afternoon.

"Sister, how about I go find Brother Yunjin for you?"

Wen Lanlan had promised her brother that she would make the pretty older sister happy.

She didn't want her to be sad.

"No need." Nanzhi touched her little face. "I believe in your brother Yunjin. He will come back eventually."

"But my sister is about to give birth, and he still hasn't appeared. He's not a good husband at all. Why don't you find someone else?"

Nan Zhi found Wen Lanlan's words somewhat amusing.

"Okay, if he doesn't come back, I'll find someone else."

But Nan Zhi also knew that even if she found another one, no one would treat her as well as Shen Yun Jin.

When Namji was close to giving birth, her protectors had already taken her to the hospital.

Shen Yunjin still didn't come back on the day she gave birth.

Everyone was worried that she would have a difficult childbirth due to her emotional state, but to everyone's surprise, she acted as if nothing was wrong, barely even uttering a few cries of pain, and successfully gave birth to the child.

They were a beautiful pair of twins, a boy and a girl, with no wrinkles at all, and their skin was pink and tender. They loved to smile from the moment they were born, especially the younger sister, whose big, clear, dark eyes stared at her without blinking.

The maid who was taking care of her asked, "Madam, would you like to name the child?"

"Let's wait for their father to come back and get it."

The maid frowned and subconsciously said, "But we don't know when the young marshal will be back."

As soon as she finished speaking, she regretted it, fearing that Nanzhi would be unhappy.

To everyone's surprise, Nanzhi continued to smile and tease the child, seemingly unconcerned, saying, "Soon, he'll be back soon."

But everyone knows that Shen Yunjin's departure is fraught with danger, and there has been no news of her since, with a very slim chance of returning.

003 reminded her: "[Zhizhi, your mission is actually complete once you give birth to the child. The child inherits Shen Yunjin's destiny and will lead this small world back to peace. If you don't want to wait any longer, you can leave this world first.]"

Nanzhi said calmly, "I promised to wait for him."

This time, she didn't want to break her promise.

Hearing her words, 003 was somewhat shocked.

Nanzhi was never like this before.

The two children didn't have formal names, so Nanzhi just gave them nicknames: the older brother, Pingping, and the younger sister, An'an.

Because prices outside are rising more and more outrageously, Nanzhi is paying her servants higher and higher wages. If this continues, she will really spend all the money Shen Yunjin gave her.

To save money, she had to reduce the number of servants, keeping only one to take care of her brother and sister.

However, later on, even in the relatively peaceful city of Beiping, war broke out.

The fighting spread to where Nanzhi was, and she had no choice but to take her child and Wen Lanlan and leave temporarily.
