Chapter 411: Eliminating all traces of his presence

When Nana stepped inside her room, all the memories of the past they shared here came crashing in her mind.

I am really back…

She still found it unbelievable that she would come back so soon especially after what happened in the banquet. What he did to Suyin was just too much to bear and then he even threatened her with Jian and Nian’s custody.

She quickly walked up to the crib and watched her sons peacefully sleeping after they had their milk.

Her heart melted, gazing at their innocent faces. She bent and kissed on their cheeks.

Nana silently clenched the handle of the crib.

Jinhai, this time you have gone too far. To think that you could actually decide to drive me apart from them…Just what is your heart made up of?

Her glance shifted to the bedside table where she saw their photo in which Jinhai was hugging Nana from behind and kissing her cheek with a bright smile on their faces.

Nana stomped her foot and put the photo back in the drawer, placing it on the other side so that the picture wasn’t seen.

She laid on the bed, feeling tired and stared at the ceiling.

Why do you always disappoint me?

Nana had no idea that his love for her could make him go to such lengths. She was unaware of his dark and possessive side until now. But no matter how much he loved her, there were some lines he shouldn’t have crossed.

Loving too much was not an excuse for his actions.

Nana’s eyelids were drooping as she felt sleepy. She had no energy to think about that man anymore.

An hour later, the door to Nana’s room slowly opened. Jinhai quietly tip-toed inside and closed the door behind him. He walked like a ninja in dark without making a single sound.

As he reached the crib, he watched his twins sleeping without a care in the world. He smiled and kissed their foreheads.

Then he stood at the bedside, gazing at Nana from above. It turned gentle as he kept watching her who was peacefully sleeping.

Jinhai didn’t want to come here. Just as they had decided, he wanted to give her space and live in separate rooms.

But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t sleep. He kept endlessly rolling on the bed in his room and twisting and turning restlessly on it.

Nana was so near to him yet he was unable to hug her and sleep. He wanted to hold her, he wanted to breathe her scent and he wanted to feel her soft body in his arms.

So he decided to just see her from a distance for a little bit and then return.

Maybe then I can sleep.

Jinhai’s sight fell at the bedside table and he frowned when he didn’t see their photo frame on it that was always there.

Where is the photo?

Jinhai looked around and then checked in the drawer. He stiffened to see the photo frame lying upside down.

He gritted his teeth and dangerously stared at Nana.

Now you cannot even stand to see our photo together? Is that how much you hate me now?

A dangerous storm brew inside him and he wished to punish her.

Jinhai looked at the twins and checked on them again.

He knew that Nana had already fed them so their tummies were full. It was highly unlikely that they would wake up again, crying for milk.

Jinhai nodded in satisfaction.

He glanced at Nana again and narrowed his eyes.

I was really going to return but you changed my mind. You didn’t want to see my face, right?

Jinhai smirked and he slowly climbed on the bed. With least and minimal movements, he expertly shifted Nana in his embrace.

Nana didn’t sense anything.

With the time he spent with her since their marriage, Jinhai had realized that she was quite a heavy sleeper. It was the same as that time when he had pretended to stay the night at Natsukashi acting as if he was drunk.

He had shifted Nana from the couch to the bed and then during the whole night that she slept in his arms, she didn’t wake up at all.

Jinhai smiled.

Well, now you have to sleep with me and the best part is that you won’t even know about it.

He kissed her forehead and closed his eyes.

The next morning, Nana yawned as she slowly opened her eyes.

That was a good sleep and a good dream. I was hugging a big and warm teddy bear that was so comfortable.

So Nana was in a good mood.

She looked at the side and didn’t find anything wrong because first, Jinhai had made sure to wake up before her so he could sneak out of the room and second, he had already tidied the crumples and creases on the bedsheet before he left so that she didn’t doubt his presence.

Nana got up and first checked on her adorable boys.

“Oh you two are already awake.” She chuckled.

“Baaaaaa….”

“Aboooiooo…” Jian and Nian giggled and flailed their chubby hands towards her.

Nana held them by turn and swayed and played with them for some time before they were finally satisfied.

“Mama will freshen up and then we will go down to meet everyone at the breakfast table, okay?”

“baaa baaa…”

Nana got ready, taking a nice shower and wearing fresh pair of dress in thirty minutes. She cleaned the twins too in their small bathtubs and wrapped them in another set of clean clothes.

Nana shifted them on their stroller and stepped out.

As she passed by Jinhai’s room, her gaze dimmed a bit and she slowed down her pace. But she immediately ignored him and kept on walking.

“What are the Tangs shouting about?”

Nana froze in her steps.

Tangs? Has Jinhai caught them?

Nana hesitated for a moment and then slowly walked up to his door. She pinned her ear on it. She could lightly hear Jinhai’s voice.

“I am coming to the base today. Get them ready to face hell.”
