Rustle...In a private ward that exuded a sense of calm and serenity, a woman sat propped up in bed, her light blonde hair cascading softly around her shoulders, providing a striking contrast to the pale blue hospital gown she wore. The room was warmly decorated, with soft pastel colors that added a comforting touch, and a large window that allowed natural light to brighten the space. Beside her, a small bouquet of fresh flowers and a few get-well cards adorned the bedside table. Click! "Huh?" As the door clicked open, Anran turned towards the sound. The light from the corridor spilled into the dimly lit room, outlining the figure of the person at the door. "!" Upon seeing who it was, her eyes opened wide briefly, before they softened, and a playful giggle escaped her lips. Whoosh! "Hehe... See this," she said, her voice filled with a mixture of mischief and pride. With all the grace of a magician revealing her grand trick, she gently presented the two newest additions to her life—twin girls cradled carefully in her arms. Each infant was swaddled in soft white blankets, their tiny faces peeking out with curious eyes. One of the twins yawned widely, her small hand curling into a fist, while the other blinked sleepily at the new world around her. ____ "Hehe... See this." "..." Wang Xiao stood frozen at the doorway, his eyes squinting slightly as if to make sense of the scene before him. After a moment of hesitation, he cautiously advanced a few steps into the room. "Hm! Hm! Take them—don't hesitate!" Anran urged, nodding her head smilling as she watched him approach. There was a spark of mischief in her eyes that made him even more wary. "..." As Anran held out the twins with a face brimming with excitement, Wang Xiao's thoughts scrambled. "..." He stared down at the infants, their small sizes and slightly unkempt appearances momentarily pushing him to the edge of discomfort. Despite his initial reaction, he found himself mechanically reaching out to cradle them in his arms. 'Why do they look like they've just wrestled in blood?' he thought, his face contorting subtly in an attempt to mask his disgust, and desire to throw them out of window. Internally, Wang Xiao was already reeling. It was at that moment he fully grasped the weight of his past decisions—the carelessness of fleeting moments now crystallized into the very real regret in his arms. Yet, as if sensing his inner regret and deciding to twist the knife a bit deeper, Anran smiled widely, puffed out her chest slightly and boasted, "See, I told you a small waist is also useful! Look what I managed—these two beauties!" Wang Xiao, now juggling the twins, couldn't help but let out a resigned sigh. "Yes, you did..." he mumbled under his breath, a mix of awe and slight resignation in his tone. He gazed down at the tiny faces looking up at him with wide-eyed innocence. Suddenly, one of the twins unconsciously latched onto his finger, her tiny grip surprisingly strong. 'Fuck...' Wang Xiao's brows furrowed as he felt a mild tug; the infant seemed determined to keep him anchored. Just as he tried to extract his finger, the second twin seized another finger, doubling the assault. "..." Searᴄh the Novёlƒire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Before the scene could devolve into full fledged war, Wang Xiao quickly decided to avert any further chaos. "Here... take them back," he said, a hint of urgency in his voice as he handed the babies abruptly back to Anran. ?? Anran, caught slightly off guard, accepted the twins with a soft laugh, her eyes twinkling with amusement. "Haha... Are you embarrassed?" "..." "Do you want to die again?" Wang Xiao couldn't help but glare at her, annoyed. Anran, undeterred by his threat, simply shook her head, her grin broad and unabashed. "Nope," she replied cheerily, her eyes sparkling with mischief. ____ Ignoring her, Wang Xiao eyes went to the cards and flower kept nearby, slightly surprised who can put them, he went forward to check it out, finding names which slightly suprised him. He didn't recognise many, so why were they even here? [They should be from staff, nothing abnormal.] Yin Yue clarified, before he can overthink it in the moment. Wang Xiao nodded, finding Amelia who had arrived but was waiting at the door, before he went outside, to greet her. "You worked hard..." He can't help but notice her appearance, her eyes slightly weary. Amelia let out a faint smile, tucking the door behind them, but keeping it unlocked. "Well, it was worth it." She can't help but sigh, before she eyed suspiciously towards, Wang Xiao, "I still don't understand... Why would you have children with girl this young?" "Young?" Wang Xiao can't help but mumer to himself, "She should be 19 soon..." He thought. Amelia eyes squinted hearing his mutterings, "She said that to you...?" She can't help but be conflicted. Rustle... As they spoke, a sudden rustle of movement caught Wang Xiao's attention. "Who?" "!" Before he could fully turn around, a weight launched itself at him. Whoosh! Anran had launched herself at him with a smile, wrapping her arms tightly around Wang Xiao's neck and her legs around his waist in a tight embrace. "Yup, my nineteenth birthday was yesterday!" she whispered right into his ear, her voice a soft murmur laced with a trace of triumphant mischief. "Really...?" Wang Xiao, initially taken aback by the suddenness of the gesture, felt his body tense up momentarily. But as he recognized the familiarity and warmth of her hold, he relaxed into the embrace, his earlier caution melting away. Anran giggled, her head bobbing playfully above his shoulder. "Uh-huh! On paper! I'm officially nineteen now!" Wang Xiao nodded in acknowledgment, his mind still catching up with the rapid turn of events. Meanwhile, Amelia stood a few steps away, her voice barely audible as she muttered skeptically to herself, "On paper...?" Her brow furrowed, her eyes narrowing as doubt shadowed her features, freezing momentarily in thought. What Wang Xiao failed to notice in this moment was the calculated glance that Anran cast over his shoulder at Amelia. Her eyes were slightly squinted, shimmering with a cunning and possibly dangerous glint. Amelia's expression darkened significantly as she observed the seemingly innocent declaration from Anran carried an unsettling passive aggressiveness, especially when paired with her piercing gaze. "..." Though silent, Amelia's mind was in chaos until a sudden realization struck her, sparking a flare of panic. "Hey, you can't move on your own! You need rest!" she blurted out, her voice tinged with concern and urgency as she stepped forward. . . . A/N: Outside the country from 22nd to 27th may, updates would resume afterwards!
