In my previous life, I was the only daughter of the imperial merchant Shen Mansion. I married into the Crown Prince's residence, only to be killed by the man who shared my bed.

"Congratulations, sister! Congratulations, brother-in-law!" Lin Qingwan held her youngest daughter, Huaiyu, with a smile that curved her eyes.
Holding his son Huaijin in one arm and slapping Xiao Chengjing's shoulder hard with the other, Shen Wenbai laughed loudly, his laughter tinged with mischief and smugness: "Hahaha! Brother-in-law! I told you! You're something else! Look, good news is coming soon! But..." He deliberately dragged out his words, weighing his babbling son in his arms, then glancing at his daughter in his wife's arms, raising an eyebrow and boasting, "Compared to your second brother's ability to bring together a dragon and a phoenix, a son and a daughter, your speed... is still a bit lacking!"
These words were like pouring oil on Prince Jing's ecstatic flames. Xiao Chengjing was immersed in immense happiness when Shen Wenbai's "precise strike" spurred him on, and his ecstasy instantly turned into embarrassment and anger! He abruptly turned his head, his phoenix eyes narrowing dangerously as he glared at his smug brother-in-law, his gaze as if he wanted to snatch the "evidence" he was showing off from his arms and throw it away!
"Shen Wenbai!" Prince Jing gritted his teeth, his handsome face slightly flushed (half with joy, half with anger), "You...you mustn't be so smug! My love for Weiqing is stronger than gold, and we have a long future ahead of us! I will...I will..." He wanted to say "I will definitely have more children than you," but seeing his wife's smiling and reproachful eyes, he felt it would be improper to say such a thing in front of the children, so he swallowed the words back, his face turning even redder. He could only glare fiercely at Shen Wenbai, his eyes clearly saying: Just you wait!
Shen Wenbai burst into laughter at his glare, showing no fear whatsoever. Instead, he found his brother-in-law's embarrassed state extremely amusing. Lin Qingwan couldn't help but chuckle as well, gently pinching her husband to signal him to stop.
The warm pavilion was filled with cheerful laughter and good-natured teasing. Shen Yuewei looked at her husband's lively expression, a mixture of joy and annoyance, and how he was rarely humiliated in front of his brother and sister-in-law. Her heart overflowed with love, and she felt that the liveliness and fulfillment brought by the little life in her womb surpassed all the treasures in the world.
