"Check this out, Lanni. I think it would look good on you." Cheng Yu exclaid as though she had just won the jackpot.
Lanni excitedly looked over at her. "Let see." In the next second, she frowned. Cheng Yu was holding a little princess dress whose tag was labelled 2-2 and a half years. She shook her head. "You naughty thing."
"You totally fell for it." Cheng Yu threw her head back, laughing so hard that Lanni wanted to punch her in the face. How could she have fallen for such a lousy trick? When Cheng Yu ntioned a dress that would look good on her, she had totally forgotten that they were in the children’s store.
"I will take revenge for that. Just you wait." She threatened Cheng Yu.
"I’ll be waiting, your majesty." Cheng Yu teased and was about to return the dress to its rack when a tiny hand tugged at it. "Do you like it, Mumu?" She looked in Xiaomu’s direction only to find that she was not the one holding it, but Linhou.
"Luna, your son wants to wear a dress." She laughed teasingly.
Luna chuckled as she watched Linhou grab the dress as though he liked it. In the next second, he looked towards Xiaomu and cumsily passed the dress to her.
"How smart. He knows that Mumu wears dresses so he thinks all dresses belong to his sister and is returning it to her." Lanni observed with a smile.
"How cute. He is looking out for his sister. I want a twin brother too." Cheng Yu’s eyes were filled with adoration.
Luna smiled dotingly at her children and focused her gaze on Xiaomu. "Mumu, if soone gives you a gift, you thank them by saying ’thank you’. Go on, thank your brother."
She tried to, but the words were difficult to pronounce so she simply flashed Linhou a smile that could lt hearts.
"I swear, I’m going to ask my boyfriend to do without protection next ti. I hope I will have a child that cute." They overheard a young woman expressing her awe in the most unfiltered way.
"Do you think they will be that cute? Those are Jiang Xingyu’s children." Another young woman gossiped while trying to lower her voice, clearly doing a horrible job at it. "Besides, look how beautiful their mother is. I would kill to have such a cute pair of twins but I simply can’t hold a candle to them! Why is life so unfair?"
Several gasps of admiration followed them no matter which alley they took, and Luna caught a few teenagers trying to snap pictures of Linhou in the na of admiring the little Xingyu. It was hard enough just convincing them that they should delete the photos because Linhou was too young to be exposed to the dia, without sounding rude. In the end, she decided to send the twins to the play area.
There were many little kids in the play area and no one had the ti to comb through the adorable ss of pink and blue just to look for Jiang Xingyu’s kids. They sat on the first floor, where they could see the play zone through the zzanine. They were tired and needed refreshnts.
"The kids look happy." Cheng Yu observed as she sipped her juice. She couldn’t get her eyes off Xiaomu who was bouncing happily on what looked like a small deflatable castle. She even held hands with a little girl who was probably her new friend.
"I’ve never seen my Mumu smile so happily." Luna felt her heart lt. Xiaomu had always been active, walking laps throughout the compound in search for heaven knows what. Yet, this was the first ti that her adorable laugh was filled with so much joy. "Turns out it’s because she doesn’t have friends. I overlooked this."
"But she has a brother at least." Lanni comnted.
Luna chuckled at the thought of it. "Brother, yes. They are like boiling oil and water. Whenever they are in the sa fra, screams happen and the house falls into chaos."
"Uh... is that how twins usually are?" Cheng Yu didn’t want to imagine it.
"It’s funny if you ask . I had to ask their pediatrician if it’s alright. He said it was because they had so sense of competition against each other, probably regarding the people around them."
It was almost unbelievable, especially since they were both so adorable. Everyone’s first reaction upon seeing them was usually to hold them on one arm each, or hug them one after the other. It was hard to not love either twin.
"Xingyu and I strive to treat them fairly all the ti. To be honest, I don’t have a preference between them either. I just love them both with all my heart. But in their little minds, they want to know who our favorite is." She ffound them amusing.
"What if your favorite were Linhou and Xingyu’s favorite were Xiaomu?" Cheng Yu asked.
"They would want to oust each other and want just one of them to be both parents’ favorite."
"Uh... that sounds complex for their age."
"I know. But on the contrary, it is because they are little that they can think that way. When they are older, doc says that they will probably be so dependent on each other that Xingyu and I will feel like backdrops. Honestly, I wouldn’t mind. As long as they stop fighting."
"Look, isn’t that Linhou? He is befriending a little girl." Lanni was awed. With their rivalry, she had almost thought that Linhou ignored Xiaomu sotis because he had realized that they were different and he disliked little girls.
"I didn’t know kids that young could be let into the play zone." Cheng Yu noticed that the little girl eating Linhou’s snack couldn’t be two years old yet. But it was not surprising. There were professionals looking after the kids so their age didn’t actually matter.
"The point is, Linhou has a little girlfriend. " Cheng Yu cheered, earning a smack from Luna.
"You are dirty minded! My son is just a toddler."
"So protective, are we? He will have a girlfriend sooner or later." She teased.
"Just shut up." Luna frowned. Although she knew that kids that age probably didn’t know the difference in gender, she looked over at her son who was laughing so hard that he fell onto the carpet along with the little girl. "Wait. Isn’t that girl Yue?"
