Chapter 426 - Since when can you cook

It did not take long before the results were out. When Wan Jia saw the smile on the doctor's face, she more or less knew the answer. 

"Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Lu. Mrs. Lu is five weeks pregnant." 

Wan Jia couldn't restrain her excitement. It finally happened! 

"Aotian!" She flung herself into his arms emotionally. 

Lu Aotian held her gently. They were going to have another baby...

Although he did not expect it to happen this soon, it actually did. 

He couldn't express his happiness enough. 

Wan Jia pulled away to take the medical report. 

Wait. Five weeks, just like Su Ling? 

What a coïncidence. 

She would have found it more coincidental if she knew that their predicted due dates were only a day and a few hours apart.

"However, Mrs. Lu, you must be more careful. You must have done heavy exercise recently, which distressed your baby. You should avoid doing all sorts of tideous exercise as much as possible." 

Wan Jia was happy even while being berated by the doctor. "Yes, I will. Doctor, is my baby alright?" 

"It should be fine. Nothing actually happened to it." 

Wan Jia smiled as her eyes teared up for some reason. 

After recieving several instructions, they went back to Little Jia's room, hand in hand. 

The little girl hadn't slept too much because she had slept for a long time already. She was flashing her big eyes around, probably looking for a familiar face. 

The IV had been taken off and she was happy now. "Mommy," she smiled when she saw Wan Jia. 

Wan Jia rushed over and held her hand. "Baby, guess what?" 

Lu Aotian was eager to break the news too. 

Little Jia's first guess was, "I'm being discharged soon?" 

Wan Jia laughed, finding her too adorable. "That's happening too, but something even better happened!" 

Little Jia knitted her little eyebrows while in thought. 

"You're going to be an elder sister." Lu Aotian said. 

Little Jia's eyes grew wide like saucers. "No way! Daddy, you're telling the truth?" 

Although she asked Lu Aotian that, she was looking at her mother, seeking confirmation. 

Wan Jia nodded. "Your dad is not lying." 

Suddenly cheerful, Little Jia stuck out a tiny palm and reached for her mother's stomach to rub it gently. When she didn't feel anything different, her tiny eyebrows raised. "There's a brother in there?" 

Finding her actions cute, Wan Jia patted her head. "Actually, we don't know if it's a brother or a sister yet; but there really is a baby inside." 

Little Jia didn't seem to believe them. She had already thought it weird that while her second aunt was pregnant, her tummy was still so thin. Why was the same thing happening with her mother? Wasn't the belly supposed to be very big?

Wan Jia understood the look in her daughter's eyes. She could only be patient and explain. "As the baby grows, mommy's tummy will grow bigger too." 

Little Jia found it plausible. 

She was on the verge of breaking into a dance! Not only was she going to have a little cousin, a little brother was on the way too! 

Does anyone know how long she had been dreaming of this? She literally started having dreams about a little toddler sticking onto her and calling her 'elder sister'! It was neither once nor twice; perhaps every two or three nights.

To add on the streak of good news, Little Jia was discarged and allowed to go home. 

As the little girl jumped and ran around from the joy of being an elder sister,  Wan Jia burried her head in Lu Aotian's chest. 

"Aotian, although having another child means finding a cure for Little Jia, can we not treat it that way?" 

Lu Aotian kissed her forehead. "Mmh." 

He understood this too. 

If the child grew up with the knowledge that he was only born to save Little Jia, he would definitely feel disheartened. 

The actual truth was, although Lu Aotian initially didn't want to let her go through the pain of having children again, he wouldn't be against it if she had really wanted to have another one. 

After all, aside from the fact that he would let her have whatever she wanted, she didn't know what it felt like to hold one's own newborn. 

No one needed to remind him...

The only problem was, "Honey, I hope you will not love this child more than Little Jia. We have to love them equally."

This child would automatically be closer to her heart, since it would be with her from its birth; contrary to Little Jia with whom she had missed three years. If she showed the younger child more love, it would make things unfair for Little Jia.

His reasoning was not groundless, but Wan Jia punched him softly. "What nonsense are you spewing? Little Jia is my baby too. These two will both be my little sweethearts." 

Hearing this, Lu Aotian sighed in relief. "You should take a good rest. I'll announce the news to the family." 

Lu Tongyan would be happy.

Not only was his second son expecting a child, his eldest son's second child was on the way too.

When Wan Jia went upstairs, Lu Aotian took his phone with an apologetic look. 

Because she was pregnant, there were matters she would have to be excluded from. 

"Everything is in place. Arrest him." 

When he hung up, he felt as though a huge load had been lifted off his shoulders. Although some things didn't go as predicted, it was still in order. 

Only after a while did he call his father. "Are you free for a meal and drinks? I'm cooking." 

"You punk! Since when can you cook for people? There must be some good news, right?"
