Taking out a ring from his pocket, Liang grabbed her hand. "Please say yes because you don't, I will cry and then you will have to coax me." After taking a deep breath, he asked, "Kathy, will you marry me and be my wife?"
Kathy jumped and squealed in excitement, "Of course I'll marry you and be your wife idiot. Why would I ever say no? I love you and you know that."
Quickly sliding the ring on her finger, he lifted her up and swirled her around. "I am so glad that you said yes."
Smacking his shoulder, she snapped, "Will you kiss me or not?"
Without saying anything, he placed her down and pressed his lips on hers.
Hooking her arms around his neck, she immediately kissed him back.
Pulling away, Liang gently caressed her face. "Let me drop you back in your office, we can celebrate after you are done working."
Biting her lower lip, she contemplated for a while before explaining, "Actually there is only a little bit of work left so I guess I can take a day off today."
Without saying anything, he scooped her into his arms and rushed towards the bedroom. "Then we should start celebrating right now."
....
Four weeks later.
Li mansion.
Singtan and Ming's room.
"What are you doing honey?" Hugging her from behind, Singtan inquired, "Are you thinking about me?"
"I am just thinking how fast the kids grew up. Doesn't it feel like yesterday when Zian and Yumi were born? They are already married and now Qiang, who is the smallest one, is also pregnant and will become a mother soon." Leaning against his chest, Ming sighed, "Time surely flies, I wish I could have my little kids back."
Scrunching his brows, Singtan complained, "Why would you want them back?" Without waiting for her reply, he complained, "You do remember how we couldn't spend any quality time together when they were kids, right? Remember how Zian used to invade our room every time? I hope his kids do the same with him, maybe then that bart will realize how I felt."
Smacking his hand, she chuckled, "Stop cursing your own son like that, what is wrong with you Singtan?"
"What? I am just stating the fact honey, Karma is a serious thing and our son has to face it."
Helplessly shaking her head, she sighed, "I don't know what to do with you, you are going to be a grandpa soon and you still act like a kid."
"I will always be your kid, right honey?"
"Of course, you will always be my big baby." Pausing for a while, she smiled, "Singtan, don't you feel proud sometimes? I mean when you see our kids living together in peace and harmony, don't you feel like we have raised them well?"
"Hmm, we have raised them in the best way we could. All of the kids are well mannered and sensible because of you. I have always been busy with work and office, you are the one who raised the kids and carved them into the person they are today." Kissing her nape, he added, "I am proud of you."
"That is not true, you were also there all the time. You always give me all the credit, you should seriously stop doing it."
"You deserve all the credit and—"
Placing her hand on his lips, Ming chuckled, "Alright, let me stop you before you turn all chessy again. Guang and Qiang are coming home today and since you have demanded for them to stay with us until Qiang's delivery, there are many things I have to do. So will you please excuse me Mr Li?"
"Tch, the kids are all grown up and still you don't have time for me. How is that even fair?" he complained.
Pushing him away, she added, "I stay with you all the time, that is a lie."
Helplessly shaking his head, he sighed, "What can I say? No matter how much time I spend with you, it's not enough."
"If you want to spend more time with me you should help me out in the kitchen."
"I'll do as you say."
…..
Hospital.
Anna's cabin
"Are you nervous?" Without waiting for her reply, Guang patted her head. "Don't be nervous, I am there with you."
"Seriously, are you sure that you are not nervous Guang?"
"What? Me? No I am not, why would I be nervous?" he scoffed.
Shrugging her shoulders, Qiang added, "The way you are behaving, I think you are the one who is super nervous about." Wrapping her arms around his, she tried to assure him. "Relax babe, everything is gonna be okay."
"How do you know if everything is okay? I told we should have done a thorough checkup earlier but you kept delaying it and now I don't know if you and the baby are fine or there is something wrong. I—"
Cupping his face, she tried to calm him down. "Guang, calm down first and listen to me. The baby is fine and is growing too, everything is okay so stop freaking out."
Taking a deep breath, he sighed, "Okay if you say so. I am just nervous because this is our first baby, I am sure my emotions will be much more stable when we have the second one."
"The first one is yet to come and look at you talking about the second one, what is wrong with you?" she chuckled.
Kissing the back of her hand, he stated, "I told you this before and I am telling you this again, we need to have at least two babies."
"I am so sorry for being late," Anna apologized before giving Qiang a hug. "Ah I still cannot believe you are going to become a mother. Why do I feel like you are still a kid?" Looking at her baby bump, she gasped, "Someone is growing fast."
Caressing her stomach, Qiang smiled, "Yes it is."
"Alright, let's start with the checkup. Did you get the reports from the other doctor?" Anna inquired.
Guang nodded his head and quickly gave Anna the reports. "Here are the reports and this is the blood test you asked her to do yesterday."
Taking the reports from his hand, Anna smiled, "The father seems very anxious."
"Don't even mention it aunt Anna, he has been freaking out since yesterday," Qiang sighed.
"Singtan always behaved exactly like him. You all know that he almost fainted in the delivery room, right? I had to throw him out," Anna explained.
"Really? I didn't know that," Qiang chuckled.
Helplessly shaking her head, Anna sighed, "I still feel like it's yesterday when I assisted your mothers for the delivery and now look at you both, you are having kids of your own." Looking at the blood report, she raised her brows. "This is strange."
Noticing the change in her expression, Guang started panicking, "What is it? What happened? Is everything okay?"
"Your hCG level is much higher than the normal value." Keeping the report aside, Anna explained, "There is nothing to worry, let's talk after the ultrasound."
....
During the ultrasound.
"Guang, if you squeeze harder my hand is going to break."
Loosening his grip around Qiang's hand, Guang gulped in nervousness, "I am sorry honey, I—"
"Why are you so nervous? I have done this before and it's completely normal and a simple procedure. Aunt Anna is here with us so there is nothing to worry about." Qiang tried to assure him.
"Let him panic Qiang and you should start panicking too because I see trouble." Pointing towards the screen, Anna added, "I hear two heartbeats, you are carrying twins."
Widening her eyes in shock, Qiang snapped, "What?"
"Wait, what? Two babies?" Guang gasped.
Pointing at the screen, Anna explained, "Do you see the two distinct fetuses? Those are your babies. I can tell you the s.e.x—"
Cutting her off, Qiang and Guang yelled unanimously, "No, we don't wanna know."
"Relax, I won't be able to tell you the s.e.x now but if you want to know then—"
"No, we don't wanna know," Qiang snapped.
"Alright, I'll give you two some privacy for a few minutes. I'll be in my cabin."
After Anna left, Qiang tightened her grip around Guang's hand. "So do you still wanna have another baby?"
"Two at the same time was not something I was expecting babe," he stated.
Biting her lower lip in nervousness, she nodded her head, "I know, it's so scary."
"Scary? Are you kidding me? It's so exciting, we will have two at the same time which means we don't have to fight over who will carry the baby first. And when they finally start talking, one can say mommy first and the other one can say dada. They are gonna get so much love from everyone and some extra love from there dad, this is so exciting," he beamed.
Scrunching her brows, Qiang snapped, "Of course it's exciting for you, you don't have to push out two babies from your v.a.g.i.n.a."
