Chapter 1029: 1028 It’s not related to your ability to have girl and boy twins

In the twilight, a serious expression tinted his handsome features. Wen Ran looked at him, her heart inexplicably contracting.

For some reason, she felt a deep ache for Mo Xiuchen.

She ached for his worry over her, his anticipation for the baby, his plans for their future…

She didn’t know if other women would feel the same for the men they loved. Perhaps it was because Mo Xiuchen was so wonderful that she felt this ache.

“You decide, whatever you think we should give to the baby,” Wen Ran said, her eyes warm as she gazed at him. In truth, she felt that as long as the family was together and happy, the gift wasn’t important.

Mo Xiuchen and Wen Ran didn’t return to the villa until the sky had completely darkened.

In the living room, Qin Mu, Wen Jin, and An Lin had taken over the sofa, engrossed in a soccer match.

In the countryside at night, apart from huddling at home to watch TV, there didn’t seem to be any other entertainment, unlike the city with its neon lights lasting into the wee hours.

“Ranran, Mo Xiuchen, you finally decided to come back.”

An Lin, who wasn’t focusing fully, immediately stood up with a smile upon seeing their interlocked fingers as they walked in. Wen Jin and Qin Mu, captivated by the screen, glanced briefly at them before returning their attention to the LCD screen.

“Ranran, are you going to watch TV?”

Upon entering the living room, Mo Xiuchen asked gently.

“No, I’m a bit tired and want to sleep,” Wen Ran said, covering her mouth to yawn. Due to her prenatal check-up today, she hadn’t fallen asleep until late the previous night.

Having been busy all day today, she was now very sleepy.

“Ranran, if you’re tired, go upstairs and rest,” said Wen Jin from the sofa, who, while watching the screen, was still listening to Mo Xiuchen and Wen Ran’s conversation.

Hearing her say she was tired, he turned his head, a look of concern crossing his face.

“Mmm, Ranran, go to sleep early,” Qin Mu also gently urged.

Mo Xiuchen glanced at them indifferently and said to Wen Ran, “Then let’s go upstairs. In a bit, I’ll give you a massage.”

Because of Wen Ran, Mo Xiuchen had developed a skill in massage.

Once back in the master bedroom, Mo Xiuchen prepared a bath for Wen Ran and found her pajamas. With the pajamas in hand, Wen Ran entered the bathroom just in time.

“Ranran, call me if you need anything.”

Before closing the door, Mo Xiuchen reminded her, concerned.

Under the shower, Wen Ran looked at her slightly bulging belly and thought about meeting their two babies in a few months. Her heart surged with happiness.

Outside, Mo Xiuchen’s tall figure stood by the bathroom door. His phone rang, and he walked over to sit in front of the sofa before pressing the answer button, his voice calm and deep, “Hello.”

“Mo Xiuchen, I heard from Ah Kai that Ranran is carrying girl and boy twins. Congratulations,” Luo Haofeng’s voice came through the phone. The corners of Mo Xiuchen’s mouth curled into a pleased arc, his voice tinged with pride, “Yes, the chances of having girl and boy twins are slim, not every couple can have them.”

“That’s true, but I’ve heard that having girl and boy twins isn’t really related to your skills,”

Luo Haofeng kindly enlightened Mo Xiuchen over the phone. Mo Xiuchen wasn’t offended, “So, marrying a wife who can bear girl and boy twins is very important. Not every man has such good taste.”

“…”

Luo Haofeng was rendered speechless.

After a while, he managed to say, “Mo Xiuchen, your shamelessness has reached an unmatched level.”

After joking for a bit, Mo Xiuchen steered the conversation to business, “How are things on your end?”

“We still haven’t found the witness from back then. If we can’t find them, things will get very troublesome,” Luo Haofeng’s voice turned from jest to a brooding tone, laced with hidden worries.

The relationship between the Luo Family and the Qi Family had always been good, as the two families were deeply entangled.

If they had managed to form a marital bond, they could have continued to get along well since, apart from the many intertwined interests, there were also other reasons that demanded they not turn against each other.

The Luo Family had always regarded Qi Meiling as their future daughter-in-law, and Qi Meiling had always deeply loved Luo Haofeng. The few girlfriends he had before were somehow influenced by his mother and the Qi Family in the background…

His breakups back then weren’t as hard as it was now with Bai Xiaoxiao. What Mother Luo couldn’t have imagined and refused to accept was that Luo Haofeng, upon meeting Bai Xiaoxiao, was just like his father with Bai Xiaoxiao’s mother years before, adamantly unwilling to let go.

“It’s been such a long time, we certainly won’t find them overnight. I’m also doing my utmost to help you look, so don’t be too anxious.”

Mo Xiuchen comforted gently.

“Xiuchen, besides that, there’s another issue.”

Luo Haofeng fell silent for a while on the phone, his voice coming through low and soft.

“What is it?” Mo Xiuchen’s slender eyes narrowed slightly, his brows raising with a hint of confusion.

“Qi Meiling’s father said that back then, my mom hurt Xiaoxiao’s mother. That incident, Xiaoxiao’s mother has never known it was my mom’s doing. If I don’t marry Qi Meiling, they’ll go public with the information.”

“Is it serious?”

Mo Xiuchen frowned. Qi Meiling had already told Bai Xiaoxiao about her and Luo Haofeng’s situation.

Their relationship was already impossible to salvage, could there be something even more serious that concerned Luo Haofeng?

“Yes.”

Luo Haofeng’s tone was laden with complex emotions; he didn’t know whether the Qi Family was telling the truth or not, and this was something he couldn’t verify in a short time.

And he certainly couldn’t ask Bai Xiaoxiao’s mother.

In the bathroom, Wen Ran finished her bath, got dressed in her pajamas, and chatted with the baby in the mirror for a while before pushing open the door and stepping out.

“Ranran, are you done bathing?”

Mo Xiuchen saw Wen Ran come out and immediately masked his emotions, rising to greet her.

“You go ahead and shower.”

“No need, I’ll dry your hair for you.” Mo Xiuchen directed Wen Ran to sit in the chair at the vanity, took a towel, and began gently wiping her hair.

After she became pregnant, Mo Xiuchen rarely used a hairdryer on her, claiming that they must prevent exposure to all radiation-emitting items in order to ensure the absolute health of the baby.

Wen Ran sat in the chair and, watching Mo Xiuchen’s focused and patient hair-drying, felt her heart brimming with happiness.

“Xiuchen, just now I heard you on the phone. Who called you?”

“Ah Feng. He heard from Ah Kai that you had a prenatal checkup today and called to congratulate us,” Mo Xiuchen said gently, pausing momentarily in his toweling.

“How is his relationship with Qi Meiling now?”

Mentioning Luo Haofeng, Wen Ran couldn’t help but ask an extra question.

“I didn’t ask. I was too busy being happy about our girl and boy twins,” Mo Xiuchen’s eyes twinkled, the corners of his mouth lifting into a proud smile.

Wen Ran looked at him incredulously, “Xiuchen, you really don’t know anything?”

“I knew about the past situation, but not the recent developments. The Qi Family won’t let go easily. Ranran, don’t worry about these things. Aren’t you tired? Close your eyes, I’ll massage you.”

Mo Xiuchen stroked her hair, which was almost dry now.
