Ning Zihan violently rejected his mother, Fang Boya, after she begged him to care for her other son, Kai Kai. Fang Boya was forcibly removed from Ning Corporation, leading Ning Zihan to get drunk in his office. Liang Youxu found Ning Zihan and brought him home, where An Baobei was informed of Fang Boya's actions.

An Baobei knows she is pregnant and shouldn’t get upset, but she can’t help it. Still, she tries her best not to get angry, calming herself down. She supports herself with the stair railing, her big belly sticking out, and climbs upstairs slowly.

She needs to check on her husband.

She isn’t at ease.

The housekeeper sees An Baobei struggling and quickly asks a maid to help her.

Once An Baobei gets upstairs, she sees Liang Youxu has already put her husband on the bed in the master bedroom.

Liang Youxu says curiously, "Why are there two beds here? Do you guys sleep separately?"

An Baobei laughs, "My husband is afraid he’ll injure me and the baby if he sleeps restlessly, so he insists on not sharing a bed with me. But he’s worried that I’ll need him at night, so he put another bed in the room."

Liang Youxu sighs exaggeratedly, "Only you can make him so considerate."

An Baobei is amused.

"Is it okay to put him on this bed?" Liang Youxu points to the bed on the left, where the drunken and unconscious Ning Zihan is lying.

An Baobei responds cheerfully, "It’s fine, I’m sleeping here, but I can sleep on the other one tonight. Thank you, Youxu哥."

"It’s the least I could do. I’ll head back to work now; I still have unfinished tasks."

"Mm."

After Liang Youxu leaves, An Baobei sends the maid away. Once the maid closes the door from the outside, she supports her waist and belly, walks to the left bed, and sits down.

The smile on An Baobei’s face disappears. She reaches out to hold Ning Zihan’s hand tightly, her expression full of heartache for her husband.

Ning Zihan usually talks nonsense when drunk, but now he’s silent, clearly passed out.

For him to drink alone like this shows the turmoil in his heart.

Fang Boya had hurt her husband a lot before, and now, even dying, still comes to cruelly hurt him again...

An Baobei never liked Fang Boya before, and now she even feels some hatred towards her.

Moreover, An Baobei truly feels her husband is pitiable. Unconsciously, she tightens her grip on Ning Zihan’s hand.

She treasures her husband like a gem, while Fang Boya treats him like dirt. It’s infuriating!

...

Ning Zihan wakes up in the middle of the night to find himself at home, lying on the bed, and surprisingly, he’s sharing the bed with An Baobei. She’s not afraid of being hurt by his drunken state, even holding his hand tightly, making Ning Zihan feel warm inside.

He initially wanted to kiss An Baobei’s forehead, but worried about his alcohol breath, Ning Zihan refrains. He gently withdraws his hand from An Baobei’s, silently goes to the guest room, and takes a shower.

After brushing his teeth and rinsing his mouth, he returns to the master bedroom wearing a bathrobe.

His head still aches from the hangover, and his mood isn’t fully recovered. Ning Zihan has no appetite, so he returns to the master bedroom.

Afraid of injuring An Baobei and their unborn child, Ning Zihan kisses An Baobei’s forehead before turning to sleep on the other bed.

But before he takes a step, An Baobei grabs his hand.

"I woke you," Ning Zihan says remorsefully. He tried his best to be quiet but ended up disturbing her.

The moon tonight is bright and luminous, its light streaming through the floor-to-ceiling windows, filling the room with moonlight.

Though things are hard to see clearly, the general shapes are visible.

An Baobei shakes her head to indicate he didn’t wake her, then smiles at Ning Zihan, "Don’t go to the other bed. Stay and sleep with me here tonight. I want you to accompany me."
