Yun Mohan (Nangong Han) quietly returned to the room. It was completely silent, with only the faint flickering candlelight. He tiptoed closer and saw Xing Xuanli peacefully asleep. Her soft, peaceful face was like a tranquil painting.

Her hair, silky soft, fell on the pillow, shimmering in the candlelight. Her long eyelashes drooped gently like two small fans, trembling with her even breathing. Her lips were slightly pursed, as if she were smiling faintly even in her sleep.

Yun Mohan (Nangong Han) stood quietly by the bed, gazing at Xing Xuanli tenderly, his heart filled with an indescribable tenderness. He slowly reached out his hand and gently stroked her hair, his movements so gentle, as if he was afraid to disturb her sweet dream.

He stood there quietly for a long time, as if time had stopped. His heart was filled with love and care for her, and he thought that he must protect her and prevent her from any harm or grievance.

Yun Mohan (Nangong Han) stood by the window, gazing at the endless night, a strong determination welling up in his heart. He secretly vowed that no matter what the cost, he would protect Xing Xuanli and their two children.

Although Xing Xuanli is now able to cultivate in this life, Yun Mohan (Nangong Han) knows that the path of cultivation is full of hardships and dangers, and she may still face various unknown challenges. And he will never let her bear these alone.

His eyes became firm and sharp, as if he had seen all the difficulties that might arise in the future. But he was not afraid at all, and had only one belief in his heart, which was to protect the one he loved most.

Yun Mohan (Nangong Han) thought of the innocent smiles of the children, and his heart was filled with strength. They were the most precious treasures in his life, and he was willing to use everything he had to protect their growth.

He turned back to the bed, looked at Xing Xuanli's peaceful sleeping face, and gently held her hand. His heart was filled with tenderness. He knew that Xing Xuanli was the most important person in his life. Without her, everything would lose its meaning.

"Li'er, I will definitely do it." He whispered, with firm determination in his voice.

In the following days, Yun Mohan (Nangong Han) worked harder to practice and improve his strength. He also always paid attention to the safety of Xing Xuanli and the children, creating a safe and stable living environment for them.

No matter what difficulties and challenges he encounters, Yun Mohan (Nangong Han) will not back down. He will use his life to protect Xing Xuanli and their two children and let them live happily.

In his heart, a voice always echoed: "Protecting them is my life's mission."

Yun Mohan (Nangong Han) sat quietly by the bed, his gaze fixed on Xing Xuanli, as if time had frozen in that moment. His eyes held endless tenderness and affection, and they remained fixed on him the entire night.

The night outside the window was as dark as thick ink, with occasional rays of moonlight filtering through the window lattice into the corners of the room, adding a unique poetic touch to the tranquil atmosphere. Yun Mohan (Nangong Han) completely ignored the outside world, gazing intently at Xing Xuanli's peaceful sleeping face, as if she were the most precious treasure in the world, worthy of his undivided attention.

The night was so long, each minute and each second slipping away silently, yet Yun Mohan (Nangong Han) showed no sign of impatience. His hand rested gently on the edge of the bed, occasionally trembling unconsciously, a sign of the surging emotions within him. His breathing was steady and long, as if blending into the night.

Finally, the first rays of morning sunlight, like golden threads, gently filtered through the gaps in the curtains, spilling into the room. The warm, gentle light gradually dispelled the darkness and awakened Xing Xuanli. She slowly opened her eyes, her long eyelashes fluttering softly against her lids, as if greeting the new day.

Xing Xuanli's gaze slowly focused on Yun Mohan (Nangong Han). Initially, she was a little confused, but soon she was deeply moved. Her lips parted slightly, wanting to say something, but an inexplicable emotion blocked her voice. Tears glistened in her eyes, tears of happiness and emotion.

Yun Mohan (Nangong Han) noticed Xing Xuanli's movements, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, revealing a warm smile. He gently held Xing Xuanli's hand and said in a low and gentle voice, "Li'er, you're finally awake."

Xing Xuanli's hands trembled slightly. She held Yun Mohan's (Nangong Han's) hand in hers and said in a hoarse voice, "Mohan... (Nangong Han), have you been here all this time?"

Yun Mohan (Nangong Han) nodded, looked at Xing Xuanli with eyes full of love, and said: "Yes, I have always been here, and I will not leave you."

Xing Xuanli could no longer hold back her tears, and they burst out. She leaned into Yun Mohan's (Nangong Han) arms, feeling his warmth and love, and said, "Thank you, Mohan... (Nangong Han), I'm truly blessed to have you by my side."

Yun Mohan (Nangong Han) hugged Xing Xuanli tightly, his heart filled with love and pity for her. He gently stroked her hair and said, "Li'er, I'm very happy to have you by my side. I will always protect you and the child and will not let you or the child come to any harm.

(Yun Mohan/Nangong Han) frowned slightly, and turned his gaze away from Xing Xuanli and towards the door, with a hint of majesty in his tone: "What is it?"

The person outside the door seemed to sense his displeasure and hurriedly said respectfully, "Your Majesty, His Majesty invites you to the palace.

Yun Mohan/Nangong Han's brows knitted together in an instant, a strange feeling of irritation welling up within him. A flicker of displeasure flashed across his deep eyes, and in a low, magnetic voice, he asked, "Do you know why His Majesty has summoned me?"

The butler outside the door lowered his head, slightly bent his body, and answered cautiously: "I don't know, but His Majesty has sent a message for you to enter the palace immediately."

Yun Mohan/Nangong Han pursed his lips gently, secretly speculating on His Majesty's intentions. He knew that since His Majesty had summoned him, it must be something important, but this sudden summons still caught him off guard.

He pondered for a moment, then turned back to the room and came to Xing Xuanli's side. Xing Xuanli looked at him, her eyes full of concern, and asked softly, "What happened? You don't look well."

(Yun Mohan/Nangong Han) gently held Xing Xuanli's hand, smiled slightly, and said, "It's okay, it's just that His Majesty summoned me suddenly, so I need to go to the palace."

Xing Xuanli frowned slightly and said worriedly, "Then you have to be careful. I'll wait for you here."

(Yun Mohan/Nangong Han) nodded, gently kissed Xing Xuanli on the forehead, and said, "Don't worry, everything will be fine."
