Ni Xuanyi obediently leaned against Li Yi, nodding gently and softly, "Yes, our family will never be separated."

Li Yi looked at the bashful little woman in his arms, feeling a stirring in his softest place. Ni Xuanyi felt the light dim as Li Yi's lips descended upon hers, touching her lips tenderly with a familiar masculine scent enveloping her.

Ni Xuanyi closed her eyes and naturally raised her head, allowing the familiar kiss to linger on her lips in passionate turns that grew more intense, burning red her face.

In this atmosphere, Ni Xuanyi no longer cared about Ran Zhao's whereabouts. She knew Li Yi well enough to realize from his earnest and calm attitude that he had handled everything well without causing her any harm.

When Li Yi took Ni Xuanyi for a check-up in her fourth month of pregnancy, the doctor informed him that the baby was a boy. Li Yi almost didn't believe it; he and Ni Xuanyi had always imagined this child as a girl, just like Zhan Yan.

They both hoped deeply to have a daughter so they could braid her hair and dress her up in dresses, making her as lovely as little Zhan Yan. But the doctor announced that it was actually a boy, which Li Yi found hard to accept after having one son who was already quite challenging.

When Ni Xuanyi heard the news about the baby's gender being male, she felt somewhat disappointed too, but when she saw the 4D ultrasound photos of her baby with tiny hands and feet in her belly, both their hearts softened.

No matter if it was a boy or girl, they were still their child whom they loved equally.

Li Yi went home to look up dictionaries to come up with a name for the little boy.

Ni Xuanyi wore a comfortable maternity dress, her hair not tied up, sitting quietly by his side, munching on an apple and watching him.

Liyi came up with a bunch of names and pointed to one, saying, "Xuanxuan, what do you think about this name"

Ni Xuanyi shook her head, "No good, it's too girly."

Liyi put a big cross behind that name and then pointed to another one, asking, "What about this one"

"Not good, it has obscure characters and is hard to pronounce!"

"Then how about this one"

"It doesn't sound nice."

Liyi was a bit tempted to sigh. When did Ni Xuanyi become so picky Thinking further, he decided that it wasn’t worth the trouble since there would still be many people to review any name they came up with anyway. It might as well be left to his father who wouldn't meet such resistance.

Ni Xuanyi looked at Liyi who was looking up at the sky and was a bit confused, "Why aren’t you naming the baby anymore"

Liyi turned around to hug Ni Xuanyi and smirked mischievously, “Brain work is very exhausting. I’ve decided to combine work with relaxation by doing some physical labor.”

Ni Xuanyi's face instantly flushed red, "What nonsense are you talking!"

"Xuanxuan, I've already asked the doctor; it’s okay after four months," Liyi gently kissed Ni Xuanyi's face.

Ni Xuanyi's face turned even redder, "You're a rogue dad; after the child is born, they won't respect you."

"How could that be He'll have to thank me for his啟蒙教育." Li Yi leaned in close to Ni Xuanyi. "Xuanxuan, it's been so long since we've been together."

Both of them placed great importance on this child and wouldn't tolerate any disturbances. Since the day they found out about her pregnancy, their desire for a daughter had made them refrain from intimate contact. Although Li Yi missed Ni Xuanyi very much, he strictly adhered to safety precautions for the sake of the baby's well-being. As such, he had been longing for a long time.

Ni Xuanyi chuckled softly and called Li Yi a rogue; Li Yi rolled over, hovering above her, his gaze intense.

The woman beneath him tugged at his invisible wings, making it impossible to fly high or far without thinking of her. Only when she was by his side would he feel truly happy and secure.

Ni Xuanyi reached up to embrace Li Yi's neck; he propped himself on both elbows, burying his face in hers, mumbled something indistinctly due to the kisses.

"What did you say" Ni Xuanyi pouted and asked.

Li Yi brushed his cheek against hers and whispered into her ear: "I love you; I can never have enough."

The weight of these words made Ni Xuanyi blush even more, but she felt incredibly happy inside.

This man who was once enigmatic was becoming increasingly straightforward in front of her; he never hid his emotions from her. This was the husband she wanted.

Li Yi dared not be too forceful, yet still found satisfaction. Ni Xuanyi had been away from this kind of activity for a long time and felt somewhat fatigued; resting against Li Yi's warm embrace, she savored it immensely. She lazily closed her eyes, adjusted her body to the most comfortable position, using his arm as a pillow, and quickly fell asleep.

Lishi Qin kissed Nixuanyi's little face and fell asleep contentedly.

The autumn morning began to rain, but the room was warm. Lishi looked at his sleeping wife, Nixuanyi, listening to her even breathing, and couldn't help reaching out to touch her bulging belly.

Nixuanyi was already six months pregnant. As her pregnancy progressed, she slept more and more. Her face in sleep was peaceful and gentle, with the corners of her mouth slightly upturned as if smiling.

The sound of Lishi's phone woke Nixuanyi up; it was Li An calling to say that Yan Luoxi had given birth to a boy who was quite robust. Through the phone, Lishi could hear his loud crying and couldn't help but think back to when Li An was young, involuntarily drawing in a breath of cold air. If this child turned out to be another mischievous troublemaker, that would be terrible!

Clearly oblivious to his elder brother's feelings, the newly promoted father, Li An, was very excited and asked Lishi and Nixuanyi when they were coming back; their parents had already returned home.

"We'll come as soon as we can." These days, Lishi had been making arrangements for them to go back home. In a few months, it would be time for Nixuanyi's delivery too; having the baby at their own place was more reassuring.

"Why didn't you ask Li An to take a photo of his son and send it over We want to see what he looks like!" Nixuanyi was excited upon hearing that Yan Luoxi had given birth, "Their boy will definitely be very handsome."

"Don’t worry. Our son will also be very handsome." Lishi happily touched Nixuanyi's belly, "It’s just a little unfair for my son; he has to become the younger brother of Li An’s son."

"It's not really unfair though. You have been spoiling Li An all these years, so his children will now take care of ours."

Nixuanyi snuggled into Lishi’s embrace, full of anticipation for the future, wondering what their lives would be like when these kids grow up. Now that Li An and Yan Luoxi both had a son and daughter each, she and Lishi definitely wanted to have another little girl. Thinking this, her face flushed red as she glanced at Lishi secretly.

Holding Nixuanyi in his arms and thinking about the children of Li An and their own child, Lishi felt filled with anticipation and hope. Living a life that is complete and happy by holding hands with one's loved ones while watching over little kids growing up must be the most perfect and blissful way to live.
