Not wasting any ti in thinking deeply about it, Jin Liwei kissed his baby girl on the lips and swallowed whatever weird grievance she had about him which, by the way, he was sure he didn’t do. She only froze for about a second in surprise before lting in his arms. He felt her sigh in satisfaction inside his mouth, prompting him to double, no, triple his efforts. The goal was to kiss her brains out until she forgot what she was crying about.
And lo and behold!
It worked!
Hallelujah!
There was a sweet smile on her lips when the kiss ended. Then she laid her head on his chest and cuddled with him. If she were a cat, Jin Liwei had no doubt in mind that she would be purring by now. Despite this, he didn’t imdiately relax. He was already learning quickly that mood swings ca out of nowhere and smacked one in the face with vengeance when one least expected it. With a tense body, he sat still and waited for her to go off another weird tangent about an imaginary fault of his.
One minute...
Two minutes...
She took a deep inhale of his scent, closed her eyes with a satisfied expression, and went to sleep. It was only when her breathing beca deep and regular that Jin Liwei released a huge sigh of relief.
It was a crude thod but kissing her brains out to shut her up seed very effective. This ti, at least. His lips curved up when he thought about it.
He looked down at her beautiful sleeping face and his smile deepened. Even though she almost drove him crazy with her wild mood swings in less than 24 hours, he couldn’t help but love her even more. His gaze dropped from her face down her body. Unable to stop himself, he reached out a hand and touched her still flat belly. His babies were inside there.
Holy. Shit.
He was going to be a father!
Unlike her, there wasn’t an ounce of apprehension in him at the thought of becoming a parent. On the contrary, he felt extrely excited. He couldn’t wait until his babies were born. He was looking forward to eting them and learning if they looked more like him or her or maybe a mixture both.
His mind beca filled with this kind of wonderful thoughts and sowhat numbed the deep, throbbing pain of his injuries. Dropping a kiss on his baby girl’s forehead, his eyes drooped close and he began sleeping as well.

Dragon Palace Ho #10.
Later that evening, Iris and Jin Liwei retired to their bedroom. Today was like a roller coaster ride for both of them—physically, emotionally and ntally. Despite the bone-deep tired feeling weighing down on them, there was a lively excitent thrumming deep within themselves which gave them enough energy for a smile.
Iris led Jin Liwei to the bathroom and looked at him with wide eyes filled with wonder. "Twins, darling. We’re going to have twins!"
"En." He reached out and tucked a lock of long hair behind her ear. "Twins an double the blessings."
She nodded which made him smile. He studied her expression and was glad to see no signs of fear anymore. Wonder and excitent lit up her face instead. This was good. He hoped that she would feel this way everyday so that she could forget all about her fear of becoming a bad mother. [This novel is a contracted work with W e b n o v e l . c o m (remove spaces).

"Darling, your sperm...they’re too dangerous," she said which made him raise an eyebrow. "It was only that one ti that your condom broke but here I am now, pregnant. And with twins to boot!"
He chuckled. "Second Brother said that it only takes one strong swimr, or maybe in our case, two strong swimrs to accomplish the job. And tell , who was it again who secretly hired a nutritionist and colluded with the chef since the sumr to change my diet in order to improve the taste, quality and volu of my sen?"
A lovely giggle flowed out of her upturned lips, sounding like the tinkling of crystal bells echoing inside the bathroom. The pregnancy glow made her bloom like the most beautiful flower. It distracted him.
"You look stunning," he told her.
"Thank you." Her smile beca brighter. "And you..." Her smile faltered. "You look awful, darling."
He could only sigh at her honesty. It wasn’t like he was fishing for complints from her, but did she need to be so honest especially when the atmosphere just now was so nice and romantic? He grunted in regret at the lost romantic atmosphere. Then he began carefully taking off his clothes.
"Don’t move. I’ll do it." She took over in unbuttoning his shirt.
After taking all of his clothes except his boxers, she began removing the tight bandages wrapped mainly around his torso. Her movents were slow, cautious, and very gentle.
Iris gasped in horror when his skin was revealed after the bandages were taken off. His entire back down to his posterior hips and thighs were covered with large, ugly and swollen bruises.
"Li-liwei...this," she choked and started trembling, her pain-filled eyes roving all over his bruised back.
He was about to turn around and face her but she stopped him. "Stay still! You must be hurting so much right now. Please don’t make any unnecessary movents. How did you survive sitting in the car on our way ho? Oh no! I shouldn’t have slept on your chest and put my weight on you. Why didn’t you tell ? I didn’t expect your bruises to look this terrible!"
"Love, listen to ." He turned around and faced her despite her protests. Then he held her shoulders firmly, forcing her to pay attention to him. "They look worse than they feel."
She shook her head.
"Trust ," he said.
"Are they hurting now? Don’t lie to !"
He hesitated before sighing. "Yeah."
"Wait here. I’ll get your dicine." She was already speeding off out of the bathroom before he could reply.
"Xiulan, don’t run! You’re pregnant!"
