Chapter 455: Chapter 455

"What a blessing, to be expecting twins!"

Not only were those highborn ladies surprised, but even Xing Mengzheng was stunned, mouth slightly agape with joy, "Fraternal twins?"

Yu Siqiao walked over to Mo Shu’s side and exchanged a glance with her, his gaze affectionate, curling his lips as he said, "Mm-hmm."

Mo Shu, facing the gazes around her, blushed slightly and nodded her head, "We just found out, fraternal twins."

Xing Mengzheng felt a burst of excitement, "Didn’t the last checkup say there was only one?"

"One developed a bit slower, not detected last time," Yu Siqiao appeared very calm, looking around before settling, "Actually, whether it’s twins or a single baby, they’re our children. To me, one or two, it’s all the same."

His tone, his demeanor, seemed as if he wasn’t too concerned.

A lady of high society laughed heartily, "Look at that grin, it’s practically reaching for the heavens!"

Xing Mengzheng’s two best friends couldn’t hold back any longer, "Stop playing the big bad wolf with me, your auntie has watched you grow up, you think you can hide your little schemes from me?"

"This is just showing off, just look, he’s bragging just like his dad used to, claiming it’s no big deal but inside he’s bursting with joy!" Xing Mengzheng’s friend Aunt Zhang chuckled silently, recalling to Yu Siqiao, "During gatherings back in the day, your dad acted so indifferent but later, I caught him twirling your mom around, laughing so hard."

Mo Shu couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

Xing Mengzheng erupted in laughter as well, "If my husband hears this, he’ll definitely hold a grudge."

"Let him hold it, am I scared of him?" Aunt Zhang felt justified, "My husband is quite formidable, you know!"

Yu Siqiao’s face felt a bit hot, and he cleared his throat with a light cough.

"Embarrassed now, are we? Hahaha, you’re killing me!"

"Hahahaha, I thought this guy only knew how to keep a cool facade, never imagined he could be shy too!"

"Ah, our Little Siqiao is all grown up now, his wife’s pregnant, and with twins to boot, who knows, they might even be a boy and girl pair!"

"Yes, yes, yes, there’s a high chance they’re ’dragon and phoenix twins!’ Just like Mrs. Zhou we met last time, she was pregnant with a boy and girl pair!"

"That’s right, that’s right, they say you crave sour for boys and spicy for girls, Mrs. Zhou would eat anything in sight!"

"Lemon water, lemon juice, mustard sauce, chili sauce—she ate it all!"

"Yeah, it was so worrisome seeing her eat like that, but she just got more beautiful. In the end, when she had the sonogram, they were ’dragon and phoenix twins,’ a boy and a girl. She was over the moon."

Listening to them talk, Yu Siqiao also began to daydream a bit.

Mo Shu too, she had a craving for both sour and spicy, and quite a bit of it. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novel⟡fire.net

Then, the surrounding aunts began talking more and more.

From signs of carrying a girl to indications of carrying a boy, and even those of ’dragon and phoenix twins,’ they discussed them all.

The more Yu Siqiao listened, the more he felt that Mo Shu might be carrying ’dragon and phoenix twins.’

Mo Shu showed signs of carrying a boy and also exhibited signs of carrying a girl, both were very apparent.

From the shape of the belly to the tips of the fingers, Yu Siqiao couldn’t help but lower his head to check.

The aunts all saw it and couldn’t help but laugh until they couldn’t contain themselves.

Later, the dessert Yu Siqiao ordered arrived, and each aunt tasted for the first time the sweetness of Yu Siqiao’s affection, all feeling pleasantly shocked.

Mo Shu enjoyed eating taro paste, feeling so blissful when she tasted the sweet and glutinous flavor that she almost felt like soaring, contentedly having three bowls.

Finally, the aunts realized that when Mo Shu said she ’could eat quite a bit lately,’ she wasn’t bluffing anyone.
