In the middle of the night, Zhu Qing was sleeping soundly.

At some point, a figure appeared in the house. But what was even more terrifying was that even though there were so many secret guards protecting this house, this person was able to come in quietly without even alerting anyone.

In the darkness, the man stood quietly beside the bed, his eyes sparkling in the night.

Zhu Qing'an on the bed seemed to have turned over and looked to be sleeping soundly. At this moment, Zhu Qing'an, who was still unconscious, suddenly took out a dagger from under the pillow and stabbed at the figure in the dark with quick, fierce and accurate movements.

This knife, if it hits, will definitely take this man's life.

The man in the dark did not expect that Zhu Qing'an would be so alert and even react so quickly. If he did not know that Zhu Qing'an had no martial arts skills, he would have suspected that Zhu Qing'an was a martial arts master.

Although the man in the darkness was surprised, his hands did not stop moving at all.

A cold big hand grasped Zhu Qingan's wrist, but without exerting any force.

"Don't be afraid, it's me!" The low voice seemed to still carry the coldness from outside, but it made Zhu Qing'an calm down quickly, and he stopped his original attempt to struggle.

"Jingsheng?" Zhu Qing'an asked suspiciously. She couldn't see Bian Jingsheng's face in the dark, but she would not mistake Bian Jingsheng's voice.

"It's me!" Bian Jingsheng said, taking the dagger from Zhu Qing'an's hand, then holding Zhu Qing'an and placing him on the bed, even covering him with a quilt.

This series of actions made Zhu Qing'an even more certain that it was Bian Jingsheng. Only Bian Jingsheng would take care of her so carefully.

"Why are you back? Have you found the Duanshenghua?" Zhu Qing'an asked impatiently.

Bian Jingsheng didn't rush to answer, but first asked, "Do you want to light a lamp?"

"Okay!" Zhu Qing'an agreed.

Bian Jingsheng asked Zhu Qing'an to close his eyes first, and then he lit the candle in the room, and the room suddenly became bright.

And the first thing Bian Jingsheng looked at was Zhu Qing'an who was covering her eyes. Compared to when he left, Zhu Qing'an's complexion was rosy and she seemed to have gained weight. She looked as juicy as a peeled lychee and crystal clear.

These days, Bian Jingsheng missed Zhu Qing'an every day, but now that she was right in front of him, he still couldn't stop missing her. He wanted to hold her tightly in his arms, but he was afraid that the coldness in his body would freeze her, so he could only endure it.

Zhu Qing'an opened her eyes gently and saw Bian Jingsheng standing beside the bed. She was instantly startled. It was not because of anything else, but because Bian Jingsheng was too sloppy at this moment.

At this time, Bian Jingsheng was wearing a dark robe that was still weathered. Although his eyes were sharp, red bloodshot could be seen in them. He must have not rested for a long time. His black hair was blown a little messy by the wind, and the stubble on his chin was bluish, not at all as clean and neat as before.

"Jingsheng?" Zhu Qing'an looked at Bian Jingsheng in confusion.

Bian Jingsheng subconsciously turned his back. He knew how embarrassed and disheveled he was at the moment, but his desire to see Zhu Qing'an made him unable to wait even a moment. He wanted to see Zhu Qing'an the first thing he did when he returned to the house.

Originally, he thought that he would just take a look and then leave, and come back tomorrow after he had packed up.

But after taking a look, he couldn't bear to leave, and even woke up Zhu Qing'an.

"I look very ugly now, don't I?" Bian Jingsheng's tone was a little depressed. Even Bian Jingsheng only wanted to show his best side in front of his beloved girl.

"How could that be? In my heart, you will always be the most handsome!" Zhu Qing'an reached out and pulled Bian Jingsheng, asking him to turn around.

Although Bian Jingsheng was really sloppy at this time, Zhu Qing'an did not feel any disgust in her heart, but only deep heartache.

I don’t know how many difficulties Bian Jingsheng encountered on his way to Yemeng, and I don’t know how many storms he went through on his way back.

Bian Jingsheng looked into the depths of Zhu Qing'an's eyes, and there was no trace of disgust there. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.

"Did I scare you? Why are you so worried when you sleep at night?" Bian Jingsheng held Zhu Qing'an's hand, his expression filled with pity and guilt.

It was all his fault. If he could stay with Zhu Qing'an, she wouldn't feel so insecure, even unable to sleep peacefully at night.

"I always have to get up at night, and I just happened to feel that there was someone in the room. As for hiding a dagger under the pillow, it is also for precautionary purposes!" Zhu Qing'an said with a relaxed smile.

Since the last time the mansion was attacked by the enemy, although she did not suffer any harm, she was still worried in her heart, fearing that His Majesty would send someone to assassinate her again that day.

That's why she hid a dagger under her pillow, hoping that when she encountered danger, she would not be completely powerless to protect herself.

It wasn't that she slept restlessly, but because of her pregnancy, she had to wake up several times at night.

"Sorry, I'm late!" Bian Jingsheng sat on the edge of the bed, and then gently placed his big hand on Zhu Qing'an's abdomen, his eyes full of guilt and uneasiness.

Just one action made Zhu Qing'an stunned. The joy of reunion just disappeared. She looked down at the big palm on her abdomen, her voice trembling slightly, "You, know everything?"

It was also at this moment that Zhu Qing'an hurriedly covered his abdomen.

"Qing'an, why didn't you tell me such a big thing? Why did you let yourself endure it all by yourself?" Bian Jingsheng looked at Zhu Qing'an with a sad face, and then said, "It's my fault. I failed to gain your trust and reliance. It's me who made you suffer so much alone!"

From the beginning to the end, Bian Jingsheng never blamed Zhu Qing'an for hiding the truth. He only blamed himself. If he had done well enough, Zhu Qing'an would not have hidden the truth from him.

"Don't you dislike children?" Zhu Qing'an looked at Bian Jingsheng's attitude, feeling distressed, guilty and uneasy, but not blaming or disgusting. Moreover, his eyes were full of love when he looked at her abdomen, which made Zhu Qing'an very puzzled.

"I don't like children? How is that possible?" Bian Jingsheng quickly denied. He never liked or hated children, but if there was a child, and it was Zhu Qing'an and his child, how could he not like it? He would want to give this child the best things in the world.

"It was you who kept saying that you didn't like children, so I kept the fact of my pregnancy a secret. I don't like my child being hated by his biological father!" When Zhu Qing'an said this, her red lips curled up slightly in dissatisfaction, her eyes full of complaints.

Only then did Bian Jingsheng realize how big a misunderstanding his words had caused.

"Blame me! At that time, I thought Miss Yang said that you were not in good health, so I thought you had a physical problem and was afraid that it would be difficult for you to get pregnant. Then you asked me again and again, so I thought there was something wrong with your body. I was afraid of making you sad, so I deliberately said that I didn't like children, just because I was afraid that you would have a psychological burden!" Bian Jingsheng hurriedly explained.

At this moment, both of them were trying their best to explain the misunderstanding. They would not choose to keep silent and complain because of the misunderstanding. Sometimes, misunderstandings require both parties to explain.

"How could this happen?" Zhu Qing'an punched Jingsheng's chest with his fist, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. "If I had known this earlier, I would have explained everything clearly. I've been worrying for a long time in vain. You don't know how worried I am. I'm worried that you don't like this child. I'm worried..."

Before he could finish his words, Bian Jingsheng had already held Zhu Qing'an in his arms.

"I'm sorry, it's all my fault. I made you misunderstand and worry! I like this child very much. You don't know how happy I was when I learned that you were pregnant. I actually have a child of ours!" Bian Jingsheng's voice was trembling, and even his eyes were red.

Zhu Qing'an listened to Bian Jingsheng's heartbeat that seemed to be about to jump out of his chest. She knew that Bian Jingsheng was not lying, and she also understood that when Bian Jingsheng said that he didn't like children, it was because he took her feelings into consideration.

She was not wrong, and neither was Bian Jingsheng. It was just a misunderstanding.

After the misunderstanding was explained, Zhu Qing'an breathed a sigh of relief. She asked softly, "How did you know I was pregnant when I didn't tell you about it? Did you come back so quickly because of my pregnancy?"

"I left Chuan Gu in Ancheng not to monitor you, but because I was really worried about you and wanted him to protect you!" Bian Jingsheng explained, "But I didn't expect that I would get such a surprise. You don't know how happy I was when I learned that you were pregnant. I didn't dare to delay for a moment and rushed back after getting the Broken Life Flower!"

Bian Jingsheng did not tell Zhu Qing'an. When he received Chuan Gu's letter and learned that Zhu Qing'an was pregnant, he stood there laughing and the guards around him thought he was crazy.

Little did he know, he was just extremely happy, so happy that he didn't know how to express it.

"Look at you, you must not have rested all the way. Why are you in such a hurry?" Zhu Qing'an accused, feeling distressed and helpless.

But Bian Jingsheng's actions undoubtedly told Zhu Qingan that Bian Jingsheng liked and cared about this child.

Once, she thought that the biggest conflict between her and Bian Jingsheng was the child, but now she realized that she was just imagining things. Looking at Bian Jingsheng's appearance, he seemed to be looking forward to the arrival of this child more than she was.

"I can't help it!" Bian Jingsheng couldn't bear to move his eyes away. He asked softly, "Did the child move? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Zhu Qingan was amused by Bian Jingsheng's words. "How could the baby move at such a young age? Chaoyan said it would take several months for the fetus to move! This child is quite considerate. I don't suffer much!"

As for morning sickness, Zhu Qing'an has felt much better. She didn't want to tell Bian Jingsheng. She knew that if Bian Jingsheng knew how uncomfortable she was, he would be extremely worried.

"Child, you must be good and don't disturb your mother, otherwise come out..." Bian Jingsheng said to Zhu Qing'an's abdomen, his voice was very light and soft, which was very inconsistent with his appearance.

He should have given a stern warning, but Bian Jingsheng couldn't bring himself to blame him.

"If it was a little girl, I wouldn't be willing to scold her!" Bian Jingsheng looked at Zhu Qing'an, his eyes full of helplessness.

"What if it's a boy?" Zhu Qing'an asked. At this moment, she could suddenly feel the love and atmosphere of herself as a mother and Bian Jingsheng as a father.

"If it's a kid, and he doesn't listen, I will definitely spank him!" Bian Jingsheng replied.

Bian Jingsheng felt that boys needed strict education, but if he had a daughter who looked like Zhu Qingan, he would not even be willing to say any harsh words.

Zhu Qingan laughed out loud, realizing that Bian Jingsheng and his mother shared the same idea. Old Madam Bian was also hoping for a girl, constantly nagging her that if she gave birth to a boy, she would discipline him strictly, but if she gave birth to a girl, she would pamper her.

"Look at you like this, why don't you go back and wash up and rest?" Zhu Qing'an urged.

Now that Bian Jingsheng has returned, there is plenty of time to talk. What Bian Jingsheng needs most now is rest. She is really afraid that Bian Jingsheng will overwork himself.

"No! Qing'an, don't chase me away, I just want to see you!" Bian Jingsheng begged, with a hint of grievance in his voice.

Who would have thought that Bian Jingsheng, who is so cold and serious in front of outsiders, has such a clingy side.

Zhu Qingan's heart softened. How could she bear to chase Bian Jingsheng away? After thinking for a moment, she said, "Then why don't you go to the back and wash up and change clothes? You'll stay here tonight."

"Really?" Bian Jingsheng's eyes lit up with joy, and he quickly stood up and said, "Don't regret it!"

As he spoke, he went to the hot spring room in the back, and Zhu Qing'an asked the maid waiting outside to find a set of clean clothes.

Bian Jingsheng washed up quickly. When he returned to the house, his body was still damp and even his hair was dripping with water.

Fortunately, because Zhu Qing'an was afraid of the cold, the charcoal fire was burning in the house all day long.

"Dry your hair quickly, don't catch a cold!" Zhu Qing'an urged.

"Okay!" Bian Jingsheng stood by the bed and dried his hair with a towel, then went straight into Zhu Qingan's bed.

"Stop it!" Zhu Qing'an glared at Bian Jingsheng. Originally, he felt that the bed was empty when he was alone, but now that Bian Jingsheng squeezed in, it seemed small.

"I'm not making a fuss. I just want to hug you, really!" Bian Jingsheng gently held Zhu Qing'an in his arms.

Zhu Qing'an looked at Bian Jingsheng suspiciously, and then found that Bian Jingsheng was really just hugging her and placing his palm gently on her abdomen.

Bian Jingsheng was really tired. In order to get back to see Zhu Qingan, he had been working non-stop for a long time.

Now that his beloved girl is in his arms and his child is also in his arms, he feels extremely satisfied.

Soon, Zhu Qing'an discovered that Bian Jingsheng had fallen asleep.

Zhu Qing'an looked at Bian Jingsheng carefully and found that when Bian Jingsheng closed his eyes, he became less cold and more gentle.

He must have been extremely tired, that's why he fell asleep so quickly.

"Child, your father loves you very much! That's great!" Zhu Qing'an also placed his hand on his abdomen, his voice filled with deep happiness.

Then, Zhu Qing'an snuggled in Bian Jingsheng's arms and soon fell asleep.
