He immediately stood up.
Yan Rusheng pushed the room door open. Xuxu was carrying one twin, her head bowed as she stared at the baby with a tender look.
He sneaked in, closing the door gently behind him. He walked over with light footsteps. “Wife.”
Xuxu looked up at him and flashed a cold smile, raising her eyebrows as she asked, “My brain is faulty. Won’t calling me your ‘wife’ lower your status?”
“Hey, why can’t you let it go?” Yan Rusheng said, walking over and wrapping his arms around her waist. He gave her a peck on the cheek obsequiously.
“Mm?” Xuxu turned her head to face the man. “I can’t let it go?”
Yan Rusheng nodded and resigned. “Alright, alright, alright. I’ll go get a CT scan tomorrow, okay?”
Only then was Xuxu satisfied. She pointed at the basin on the floor and commanded in an empress’ voice, “Go and wash the diapers which I just changed.”
Yan Rusheng frowned. “Can’t I get them to wash it later?”
Alright, he knew that she was just trying to torture him.
Xuxu casually asked, “You don’t want to do it?”
Yan Rusheng gritted his teeth and nodded. “Alright, I’ll go now.”
“But give me some special welfare first,” he said as he pouted. Swiftly, he planted a kiss on her cheek and hopped off the bed.
He picked the basin up and walked to the bathroom.
Xuxu smiled as she watched him leave.
When he entered the washroom, she looked down at the baby in her arms again. She smiled blissfully and asked, “Darling, isn’t your father very cute?”
The matron had told her not to sit around for too long, so she returned the baby to the crib after a while. She then lay down on the bed.
She took her phone from the bedside cabinet and opened the WeChat application. She sent Su Yue a message that read, ‘Yueyue, are you still angry at your third sister-in-law? Don’t forget to eat.’
After she sent the message, she opened Moments and refreshed the page. It startled her.
The first post was from Su Yue. She posted a photo of a bowl of noodles and a few chicken wings. She captioned, ‘Today’s beef noodles from the canteen were delicious, and the chicken wings were superb too.’
Xuxu heaved a sigh of relief. She smiled and clicked on the post, replying to it, ‘Eat more if it’s good. Sleep early tonight.’
Although Su Yue didn’t reply to her WeChat message, nor sent her a reply her in Moments, she knew that Su Yue’s post in Moments was meant for her. She wanted to tell her that she had already eaten.
This little lass, she’s getting more sensible.
Xuxu smiled and kept her phone.
Yan Rusheng emerged from the bathroom at this moment and caught her smiling. The corner of his lips lifted too. “Wife, what made you so happy?”
Xuxu looked at Yan Rusheng and her expression immediately turned cold. “Are you done?”
“Yes.” Yan Rusheng nodded. He walked over and sat down on the corner of the bed.
He sneaked a glance at the two infants in the crib before lying down on his tummy and propping his chin up, looking straight at Xuxu.
Xuxu rolled her eyes and turned around, ignoring him.
Yan Rusheng extended his arm and pulled her back so that she was lying flat again. What were you laughing at earlier?”
Xuxu responded coldly, “I’m not telling you.”
“Oh, you aren’t going to tell me?” Yan Rusheng asked, with a wicked smile. Then he bent down and kissed her on the lips.
“Mm…”
…
Seeing Su Yue’s post on moments, Ming Ansheng clicked on it and typed out a long reply. After some thought, he deleted it and crafted a new message. He typed and deleted over and over again.
In the end, he didn’t send her anything.
