Yan Luoxi had been busy outside and felt hungry again. She took two tablets of vitamin B6 prescribed by the doctor and ate some small desserts, which made her stomach feel much better.

Perhaps because she slept too much during the day, when it was time to sleep at night, she couldn't fall asleep. The dim light illuminated the room, and as the night deepened, everything fell silent. Yan Luoxi looked at the time; it was one o'clock in the morning.

She lay on her bed for a while but could not sleep, staring at the ceiling without any thoughts. Without Li An by her side, she couldn't concentrate no matter what. In the end, she turned over and sat up, changed into some clothes, and walked to the lobby downstairs.

The hotel was highly functional; next to the lobby was a small bar where many people were still awake, either playing or chatting loudly with high spirits.

Yan Luoxi found a quiet spot by the window and sat down. The outside was pitch black, and she ordered a bottle of mineral water, sipping it aimlessly.

The hotel's bar differed from regular bars; their midnight performance was soothing and elegant. A female singer on stage sang a French song that Yan Luoxi found familiar; upon careful listening, it turned out to be the same song Li An had sung countless times for her.

As Yan Luoxi listened to the song, she thought of Li An holding her in bed, moved by the memories. When the female singer sat beside her after singing, Yan Luoxi couldn't help but lean over and ask, "Miss, could you tell me what that song is called"

The female singer exuded a kind of poignant beauty; she lit up a cigarette, the red flame burning at her fingertips like a night-blooming flower.

She smiled at Yan Luoxi and answered softly: "The song is called 'To Keep You Loving Me'."

"To Keep You Loving Me!" Yan Luoxi repeated blankly.

The female singer noticed that Yan Luoxi did not understand French, so she hummed the song gently in Chinese: To keep you loving me, if you take your heart away

I will search for it everywhere, through cold and fire, your soul, to keep you loving me, I'll cast a spell upon you, I'll praise you with the finest words, I'll recite that magic charm to keep you loving me...

Listening to these lyrics, Yan Luoxi looked out of the window and finally began to understand Li An's painstaking efforts for her.

Li An was concerned about Yan Luoxi; he went back to his own room but left two bodyguards near hers.

The two bodyguards noticed when Yan Luoxi had left her room, but they did not dare to make a fuss without knowing where she had gone. They decided to follow her and report back to Li An later. Seeing that Yan Luoxi was quietly sitting here drinking mineral water and listening to music, the guards did not want to disturb Li An who had just returned to his room for rest.

Li An worried about Yan Luoxi, who was pregnant, and could not sleep well all night. Early next morning, he got up early again and used a spare keycard to open her door quietly. He tiptoed inside and saw that Yan Luoxi was lying peacefully asleep on the bed; he smiled in relief as he looked at her beautiful sleeping face, wanting to kiss her but not daring to disturb her sleep, so he sat down gently on the sofa.

Yan Luoxi had returned from the bar at 3 a.m., and all her worries vanished. She slept very soundly that night and continued to sleep through till daylight outside.

Li An didn't sleep well last night, but he felt at ease staying by Yan Luoxi's side. He eventually dozed off on the sofa.

The two of them had been deeply asleep, and it was finally Yan Luoxi who woke up first. As she opened her eyes, she saw Li An curled up uncomfortably on the sofa with his long legs drawn up, but he wore a slight smile on his face.

At this moment, Li An looked exceptionally charming. No matter how unwillingly Yan Luoxi tried to deny it, she had to admit that Li An was simply breathtaking in his attractiveness. If her child inside her turned out to be a boy, would he also bewitch countless girls with his good looks like his father

Thinking about the baby growing inside her and envisioning their future family of four, Yan Luoxi couldn't help but smile gently.

Lying in bed, she didn't rush to get up. The warm midday sun was casting a soft glow on both of them. The room felt cozy and serene; she realized that this must be what people meant by living peacefully and contentedly.

Li An's sleeping posture wasn’t comfortable, and he woke up from a dream when he tried to shift his body but was hindered by the cramped space. Upon seeing him move, Yan Luoxi quickly shut her eyes.

Even though she had already decided in her heart to forgive Li An, she didn't want to show it through her actions immediately. This man was too arrogant; he would take advantage of any leniency given to him. She needed to teach him a lesson and make him behave himself for some time.

Li An opened his eyes and checked the time, realizing that it was already noon. He thought about how Yan Luoxi was now pregnant and her life had to be regularized; she couldn't always skip meals as it would deprive the baby inside her of nutrients.

He rubbed his face, sat up from the sofa, and went over to Yan Luoxi's bed to rouse her.

When Yan Luoxi sensed Li An approaching, she turned over and pretended to have just woken up. She smiled at the person leaning in close.

The moment he saw her smile, Li An started his usual routine. He bent down and hugged Yan Luoxi, nuzzling against her as he said, "Wife, are you still tired What would you like to eat I'll have the restaurant bring it up..." It had been many days since their last encounter; now that they were this close again, his hands couldn't help but move. He lifted her thin blanket and touched her body, running his hand over her skin.

Yan Luoxi didn’t hesitate to slap him twice, lightly scolding, "Get up right away! Now that I'm pregnant, we can't be too reckless. Don't touch me; sit on the other side!"

Li An clung to her persistently and pleaded softly, "I won't make any rash moves. Can’t I just hold you"

"No, I’m hungry. Quickly go place an order for me." Yan Luoxi wasn’t about to forgive him right away. She let his pleading fall on deaf ears.

Li An dawdled around for a while but seeing that Yan Luoxi was resolutely guarding herself against him, he finally got up sheepishly and called the restaurant.

The moment she started brushing her teeth, she felt nauseous again. She remembered feeling no such symptoms when she carried Zhan Yan—why were they so severe this time Could it be that she’s really carrying a boy

Li An quickly placed an order with the restaurant and began to watch closely for any signs of Yan Luoxi's distress. Seeing her show signs of wanting to vomit, he rubbed his hands anxiously. He had never realized how much pain a woman endures during pregnancy; if he'd known this before, he wouldn't have tried so hard to get her pregnant again.st now, who knows what you would have done with that man. The image of innocence you show me is just a facade. After breaking up with Zhou Guangtao, you immediately jumped into Ran Xu’s arms—your true...
