  In that instant, the feeling of being abandoned was so intense that it almost drove her insane…


  “It’s fine now. I’m here.” Yu Yuehan hugged her tightly as he patted her head with his big hand like he was coaxing a child.

  Usually Nian Xiaomu did not feel insecure. It was because too many things had happened recently.

  Out of the blue, she found out that she had given birth before and that the child was Xiao Liuliu.

  She could not remember the past, not even how she had become pregnant with Xiao Liuliu. Yet, Fan Yu turned up with information about her lost memories.

  Yu Yuehan narrowed his eyes and took her back to the room.

  Taking the cut fruit from the butler, he fed her piece by piece until she was full. Then, when Nian Xiaomu whined that she still could not sleep, he coerced her into doing “digestive exercises” with him.

  In the end, Nian Xiaomu ran out of stamina and fell into a deep sleep.

  Before she dozed off, she muttered, “Yu Yuehan, let’s take Xiao Liuliu out to play—just the three of us…”


  “Alright, go to sleep. I’ll make plans for it.”


  Lowering his head, Yu Yuehan planted a kiss between her eyebrows.

  Seeing her knitted brows loosen up, the gaze in his eyes became more gentle.

  After a night of sleep, Nian Xiaomu had no recollection of what she had done the night before.

  She held her aching waist and felt that her entire body had been torn apart by someone. Every part of her body hurt.

  He had made it sound so good when he was offering himself as a present to her.

  What had he done to her last night?

  After putting on her clothes, Nian Xiaomu went downstairs and saw Yu Yuehan talking to the butler in the living room with Xiao Liuliu in his arms.

  When he saw her come downstairs, he gestured toward her.

  The cuddly ball in his arms reacted immediately. Sliding off the sofa, she darted toward Nian Xiaomu and pounced right into her arms.

  “Mommi, Daddi says he will take us out to play!”


  “…”


  In Nian Xiaomu’s mind, she could kind of remember herself saying that, but could not figure out if that was reality or a dream.

  Now that she heard the words from Xiao Liuliu, she was momentarily startled.

  “You’re right, the three of us should go out as a family to develop some chemistry.”


  Yu Yuehan smiled when he caught the bewilderment in her eyes.

  Standing up from the sofa, he walked toward her and asked, “Why are you still standing here? Go upstairs and change.”


  “…”


  Before Nian Xiaomu could figure out what was going on, she was brought upstairs to get dressed and then dragged downstairs.

  She only snapped back to her senses when she got into the car.

  Swinging her head around to face Yu Yuehan, she said, “It was only a passing remark. Even if we were to go, it can’t be today. There is a public relations department meeting today…”


  “I applied for leave on your behalf,” interjected Yu Yuehan.

  “…”


  Leave?

  “Sick leave.” As soon as he said those words, his eyes narrowed as he teased, “Or perhaps you want to take marriage leave…”


  Nian Xiaomu: “…!!”


  Afraid that someone would really apply for marriage leave for her, Nian Xiaomu kept silent throughout the journey.

  After a long while, it suddenly struck her that she had not asked where Yu Yuehan was taking them.

  Then, the sound of ocean waves from outside the car answered her question.

  When Xiao Liuliu saw the golden beach and the rolling ocean waves, she was immediately filled with excitement.

  Propping her chubby hands against the car window, she kept looking outside.

  Nian Xiaomu quickly held her in her arms and only carried her out of the car when the car had stopped.

  The vast expanse of the sea and the soothing sea breeze seemed to chase away all of one’s worries.

  While Nian Xiaomu was trapped in a daze, before she was moved to tears, Yu Yuehan stood behind her and reminded her, “There’s also a photographer today.”
