It was as if the other person was just someone insignificant.She couldn’t gamble on her relationship with the Mu Family along with her most vulnerable spot tucked deep in her heart.
"It’s not that I don’t trust you, it’s just... attacking a city is easier than defending it."
There was helplessness, and also desolation.
The meaning of her words, Mu Jin Huan naturally understood. No matter how Nan Huaiyu took action, it would cause her unbearable damage.
It’s just that he didn’t have that kind of ability yet.
A gentle kiss fell on the woman’s smooth forehead, his voice low and deep, "It’s a bit tough for me alone, but now that Nan Ze is awake, dealing with him is just a matter of time. You won’t have to sleep with the lights on anymore."
She only kept the lights on when she was alone.
In the current season, there’s no need to turn on the air conditioner. Sleeping under a blanket is the most comfortable temperature.
Nan Wan could clearly feel the man’s body warmth transmitting through her thin silk pajamas to her skin, the fragrance of shower gel on both their bodies intertwined, everything was familiar.
Instinctively, she snuggled deeper into his embrace, closed her eyes, and murmured softly, "What are you doing?"
Besides the days he was hospitalized, he actually seldom appeared around her. Liu An would drive to the hospital on time every day, when he saw her he would always nonchalantly mention that he was in meetings, on business trips, or busy with other things.
She pretended not to hear, and Liu An didn’t mind, he would follow behind her until she got home before turning around, and it was the same the next day.
A long, long time passed without the man answering her question, so long that she thought he wouldn’t speak.
Half asleep and half awake, it seemed like a low and deep voice was pressing against her eardrum.
Vaguely, indistinctly discernible, "I am waiting for you."

When Nan Wan woke up the next day, the space beside her was already cold.
After washing up and changing clothes, she went downstairs. There was no one in the living room or dining room.
Barton came trotting in from the backyard lawn by scent, squatting at Nan Wan’s feet with his tongue out, begging to be hugged.
Nan Wan’s delicate eyebrows and eyes still carried the gentle beauty of early morning awakening, she bent down to touch the head of the golden retriever, and asked Aunt Zhou, "Did he go to work?"
Her voice had a faint note of disappointment, but if one didn’t delve deep, it wouldn’t be noticeable.
Aunt Zhou, while setting out breakfast, replied, "Yes, sir had something urgent at the company. Before he left, he reminded me to cook sticky rice porridge for you, Ma’am."
Nan Wan nodded, glanced at the time on her phone: seven forty-three.
So early he started working...
Did he skip breakfast again? Does his occasionally troubling stomach not want itself anymore?
He used to always teach her to eat on time, yet he couldn’t manage it himself.
She walked to the dining room, drank a few sips of milk first, then started eating porridge.
Aunt Zhou brought freshly steamed vegetable buns to the dining table, her voice filled with kind concern, "Ma’am, you should eat more, the driver is outside and will take you to the hospital so you won’t be late."
Nan Wan nodded, the porridge was a bit hot, she stirred it with a spoon, speaking softly, "Aunt Zhou, has Mu Huan returned to the Mu Family during this time?"
"He only went back twice, staying for about an hour each time, and left right after dinner."
Being able to stay at the Mu Family for a meal was already quite difficult...
Nan Wan smiled, said nothing more, and quietly and elegantly ate her breakfast.

After parking the car, Liu An quickly got out and walked around to the passenger side to open the door, his right hand protecting Nan Wan’s head.
After she got out, he said, "Ma’am, President Mu said he’ll come to pick you up from work tonight."
Nan Wan responded with a low "hmm," took a few steps forward, then suddenly stopped and turned back to ask, "Do you know where Yu Qinglu is?"
On the night Xu Moyi brought Barton to the hospital, Yu Qinglu, drunkenly blocking her way, smiled gently and said, "Nan Wan, he won’t divorce you."
And also said: "Doctor Nan, I think I’m really sick."
Since then, she had never seen that person again.
Regarding Mrs. Mu, Liu An never deliberately hid anything, of course, except for what President Mu had instructed, so without hesitating he respectfully answered, "Miss Yu is in An City."
Nan Wan’s expression was calm, her face showing no emotional fluctuation, as if she was just asking casually, "It’s nothing, you go to work."
"Okay," Liu An nodded slightly, watching Nan Wan walk into the hospital before getting in the car.
...For over two months now, the flowers delivered by the florist had all ended up in the trash, the hallway was filled with the scent of lilies, making the smell of disinfectant lighter.
Every day, Qin Zhenzhen would lament: What a waste of heavenly gifts!
