Chapter 1295 - Vision Problems
Inside the delivery room, Iris felt exhausted. She didn"t know how long it had been since she went into labour. It felt like forever. Someone started wiping the sweat on her face and neck. She glared at her husband.
"Liwei, your sons are too much!!!"
"En, I"ll scold them when they come out," Jin Liwei replied in a serious tone.
His current appearance wasn"t any better than hers. He was dishevelled and fatigued—a far cry from his usual cold and sharp handsomeness.
Iris didn"t like his answer. How dare the man want to scold her precious babies?!
"You—ah!!!"
Sharp pain shot through her once again.
The pain scattered all of her thoughts away. She had no choice but to endure the intense pain. The duration between the contractions was becoming shorter. She had less reprieve from the torment.
"It"s time," the doctor announced.
The rest of the medical staff hired especially for the childbirth immediately went into action. They positioned Iris on the bed and surrounded the lower half of her body.

"Young Madam, remember what we practiced," the doctor reminded her. "Breathe and then push, okay?"
"Y-yes…"
The look in Iris" eyes changed. She looked ready for battle. Despite her current sorry state, the determination to birth her babies safely filled her.
"I"m here, love," she heard Jin Liwei whispering directly to her ear. "Hold on to me. I won"t let you go. Never."
She squeezed his hand. This was the best she could do to let him know that she heard his words. The pain was now coming in strong, powerful waves.
"Aaaaaaaah!!!"
Tears flowed down her eyes as she struggled to breathe, scream and push the first baby out of her body.
The pain was unimaginable.
She thought that she had already prepared herself beforehand but it was unlike anything she had ever experienced before.
Even being shot multiple times in her past life couldn"t compare to the intense, prolonged pain that she was feeling right now. It felt like she was being ripped apart from the inside.
"L-love! Don"t close your eyes! Can you hear me?! Stay awake!"
Iris was awakened from a momentary loss of consciousness. Jin Liwei"s loud shouts and frantic taps on her cheek brought her back.
She immediately returned to pus.h.i.+ng and didn"t even realize that she pa.s.sed out for a few seconds.
"Liwei, you b.a.s.t.a.r.d!!!"
"Yes, yes. It"s all my fault. Please, just bear with it for now."
"I"ll castrate you after this!!!"
"Ye—let"s discuss that at a later date."
"f.u.c.k you, Jin Liwei!!!!!"
"I"m sorry, baby. Hold on for just a bit more."
"AAAARGHHHHH!!!!!"
Iris felt like all of the veins inside her were going to pop from the great strain of pus.h.i.+ng.
"Yes, the first baby is out!" the doctor announced with excitement.
Moments later, a loud baby"s cry filled the entire delivery room.
Iris completely forgot about the pain as she stretched out her arms for her baby. A nurse laid down the still gunky infant on her chest. Another nurse proceeded in wiping the still crying infant with a warm towel while Iris cuddled her baby.
At the same time, Jin Liwei was guided on how to cut the infant"s umbilical cord.
Iris was smiling through her tears. She couldn"t stop staring at her baby"s face.
"So ugly," she commented while chuckling.
"En," Jin Liwei agreed without any hesitation. His eyes, however, were filled with pure gentleness.
He kissed Iris" lips.
She smiled at him.
Then both stared at their "ugly" baby with happy expressions.
The medical staff looked at each other after hearing the exchange between the husband and wife. All of them had prior experience in a.s.sisting childbirths.
They swore that this baby was the best-looking out of all the babies they had a.s.sisted in birthing. Sure, it was red and wrinkly but all babies were born like that. The appearances of babies would quickly improve in just a few days.
With a mother like Iris Long and a father like Jin Liwei, it was only natural that these two gorgeous people would produce beautiful babies. And yet listen to the two of them calling their own baby ugly so straightforwardly.
Poor baby.
Iris wanted to continue cuddling her son but another wave of powerful contractions a.s.saulted her. A nurse took away the baby as Iris once again had to focus on giving birth to the next baby.
This time, the process was much smoother. It was still painful but Iris didn"t suffer as much.
The second baby only cried for a short time unlike his elder brother. He quickly calmed down upon being placed on his mother"s chest while a nurse cleaned him up. Then Jin Liwei cut his second son"s umbilical cord as well.
"Another ugly one," Iris said.
"En, looks like a drowned rat," Jin Liwei replied.
She giggled while he smiled.
The doctor made a face while the rest of the medical staff turned their heads away. It was hard listening to the couple"s comments about their own babies.
What did CEO Jin mean that his second son looked like a drowned rat? The second son resembled him the most!
It seemed that this husband and wife had some vision problems.
They were so unlike other new mothers and fathers that the medical staff had a.s.sisted before who couldn"t stop praising their newborns" cuteness.
The entire medical staff wanted so badly to refute Iris and Jin Liwei"s claims that their newborn twins were ugly. In the end, however, they decided to just keep their mouths shut.
CEO Jin was too intimidating while Iris Long could be quite scary whenever she lost her temper.
They would just do their jobs. If the couple believed that their own babies were ugly, then who were they to correct the two blind people?
Iris and Jin Liwei bonded with their twin infants afterwards. Despite calling their own babies ugly, the happiness emanating from the new parents was almost tangible.
Jin Liwei carried his eldest human son while Iris cradled their second human son. He carefully leaned down and once again kissed his wife"s lips.
"You"re so amazing, Evelina," he whispered.
His voice was so low and soft that only Iris heard him.
"Thank you for giving me children. And I love you. So much."
"I love you, too," Iris murmured as she drifted off to a much-needed sleep.
