"You kept it from me until now?"
"I was worried that you would be too worried about it, and I wanted to give you a surprise, so I thought of telling you all today after the dinner, but I didn"t expect that I would suddenly feel nauseous…"
"Didn"t you still have your periods these two months?"
Mo Xi scratched her nose, "I lied about the period because I didn"t want you to be so anxious at the start…"
"You…" Jing Mo Chen was a little angry at Mo Xi because she lied to him and kept her pregnancy from him for so long, "What if I couldn"t hold it in that few times and just did it?"
"… Sorry… Actually, it is safe to do it during pregnancy… Except for women who are expecting multiples or have other conditions… However, as a precaution… Let"s wait until after three months… I just didn"t want you to be too anxious about it… Don"t be angry…" Mo Xi"s head hung low.
"You…" Jing Mo Chen knew that Mo Xi meant well, but he was still worried about her, what if something really went wrong and he didn"t know about her pregnancy?
Jing Mo Chen sighed and pulled Mo Xi into his arms, "Don"t keep such things from me next time, alright?"
"Mm! I would never keep anything from you anymore!" Mo Xi smiled happily.
While Mo Xi was smiling, someone tugged at the hem of Mo Xi"s dress.
Mo Xi and Jing Mo Chen looked down and saw Yang Zhen Ying looking at Mo Xi with a sadden expression.
Mo Xi chuckled and bent down, "Sister Mo Xi will always dote on and love Ying Ying. Ying Ying doesn"t have to worry that Sister Mo Xi would not want you anymore!"
Mo Xi gently stroked Yang Zhen Ying"s hair while hugging her, "Ying Ying also has your family doting on and loving you, so next time when younger sister or brother comes out, Ying Ying have to shower them with your love as well, ok?"
Yang Zhen Ying"s eyes gradually lit up, and she looked at Mo Xi"s stomach, her hand slowly reached Mo Xi"s tummy, and she gently touched it, "Little brother or little sister, nice to meet you. I am Ying Ying. When you all come out, I will dote on you."
Yang Zhen Ying smiled as she said those words, and everyone was shocked by Yang Zhen Ying because it was the first time she spoke so many words at once!
With the news of Mo Xi"s pregnancy and Yang Zhen Ying"s improvements, the reunion dinner was even more perfect.
They then celebrated Jing Mo Chen"s birthday right after dinner, but they didn"t even other friends because it was afterall a Chinese New Year"s Eve.
After dinner, in Jing Mo Chen"s bedroom.
Mo Xi stood at the balcony as she looked at the beautiful night sky after she bathed, as usual.
Jing Mo Chen slipped his arms around Mo Xi"s waist from behind as he hugged her. He rested his chin on her shoulders, and his hand covered her stomach, "Thank you."
Mo Xi knew what Jing Mo Chen was thanking her for, and she smiled as she turned her face to him, "Congratulations, you are going to be a father soon!"
"Congratulations, you are going to be a mother soon!"
"Do you want a boy or a girl?"
"I like them all as long as the children are ours."
Mo Xi smiled sweetly, "Me too, as long as the children are ours, I would like them all."
"You are going to have a hard time in the next eight months…"
Mo Xi turned around and hung her arms around Jing Mo Chen"s neck, "Not everyone would have a difficult time. I didn"t feel nauseous until just now, and I think it was because they can"t wait to tell their father about their presence. So, I think they are going to be good children that won"t give us a hard time."
"Even if you won"t have a hard time, I would…"
Mo Xi laughed as she knew what he meant, "Sorry…"
"My little dumdum, I should be the one saying sorry. You are the one carrying them."
"Let"s both not say sorry," Mo Xi then remembered something, "Oh! I forgot to give you your present!"
Although she had wished him early in the morning, she hadn"t given him the present because she wanted to give it to him right before telling him about her pregnancy. However, she didn"t expect that her pregnancy would be revealed so unexpectedly.
Mo Xi went to her bag and took out two boxes. She then took out a tie from the box and tied it on Jing Mo Chen"s neck.
After she finished tying it, she clipped a tie clip that she took out from the box with the tie. She then handed the other box to him, "Happy birthday, Mo Chen!"
Jing Mo Chen looked at the tie clip and the cufflinks in the box carefully. The words "Xi ♡ Chen" were carved onto the tie clip, and the words "X ♡ C" were carved onto the cufflinks.
"I prepared the presents when we got married, and I didn"t expect that we thought of the same thing. When you gave me my birthday present, you placed your name in front. Now, I want to let you see that I love you as well, and you would always be the number one in my heart. Since I tied the tie for you and placed the tie clip on it, we are tied together forever because our hearts are securely tied together as well," Mo Xi said as she showed him the bracelet on her wrist.
The words "Xi ♡ Chen" were also carved onto the bracelet.
Jing Mo Chen"s heart melted when he looked at the presents that Mo Xi had prepared for him.
This was probably the best birthday he ever had. His beloved wife told him that he would always be the number one in her heart and prepared presents for him. Not only that, he was going to be a father soon!
Jing Mo Chen pulled Mo Xi into his arms again and hugged her dearly.
