Chapter 497: The doting father's club
Serena giggled. “Well, yes. It wasn’t like Zixin’s time when we couldn’t decide on a name.”
Jianyu rolled his eyes. “Oh, yea, I remember. It was Mom’s responsibility to find a name, but she couldn’t find any good one to her satisfaction until the very end. Not even Serena. I didn’t know why. Like, how hard is it to think of a name? So I had to choose one myself.”
Zixin asked, “So Dada chose my name?”
Jianyu chuckled. “Well, your mother and grandmother couldn’t be of any use, so I had to step up.”
Chen Liling bonked on his head. “It wasn’t my fault! I just wanted a perfect name. It takes time!”
Serena furiously nodded. “If I hadn’t been holding the babies now, then I would have hit you too.”
“Nine months aren’t enough for you?” He asked, looking speechlessly at his wife and mother. “How did you choose my name, then?”
Chen Liling awkwardly smiled. “Well, it was actually Guiren who finally chose your name.”
Chen Guiren chuckled. “Liling’s mind was similarly fried out thinking of a name for you, but she couldn’t.”
“…”
Nana coughed. “So what names have you chosen?”
Serena smiled. “If it was a boy, then we were going to name him Yunru, and if it was a girl, then Yubi.”
Jianyu said, “But now we have one of each, so we can use both.”
“That’s awesome!”
Nana bent down and smiled at the babies. “Hehe. So you are Yunru and you are Yubi. How do you find your names?”
Nobody expected them to respond, but the twins actually broke into a small smile as if agreeing upon it.
Zixin jumped in excitement. “They smiled! They smiled! They like the names. Mama! Please let me hold them too!”
Shin said, “Your Mama is still weak, so you cannot jump on the bed, okay? Let your siblings be back in their cribs.”
Zixin pouted. “Alright.”
A while later, everybody stepped out, letting Serena rest. She breastfed her twins, and they were asleep in their crib.
Jianyu slowly sat beside her and held her hand. He was careful not to disturb the tubes and hurt her.
Serena smiled. “Hey. They are so adorable, aren’t they?”
“Of course. Just like their cute and cheeky mother.”
“Hehe~~”
He softly smiled as he looked at his twins.
She pouted. “I am warning you not to be biased against Yunru, okay? I clearly saw how you were holding and playing with Yubi the whole time. I know you wanted a daughter but no partiality against my son!”
Jianyu’s brow twitched.
She noticed that?
“I-I wasn’t. Nana was holding Yunru the whole time,” he shook his head as if he had no choice.
She narrowed her eyes. “Hmph. You cannot lie from me.”
Jianyu gave up. “I cannot help it. I wanted a daughter for so long, and now that she is finally here, I cannot see anybody else. She is just so cute.”
“So is my son. Both are angels.”
He frowned. “Not as cute as Yubi, though.”
She rested her head back on the pillow, feeling helpless. “Ah, you are impossible. I can already see you are going to turn, just like Liu Jinhai and Liang Shin. A doting father who will spoil his princess.”
He defended himself. “I will love her, not spoil her,” he said so, but his tone was hesitant and uncertain.
She rolled her eyes. “Yes, say that to your unconfident self. Oh well, we will see that in the future. Maybe you three will even form a club where you will all only talk about your daughters.”
Jianyu seriously contemplated.
Maybe we can even discuss regarding any bugs hovering around our girls and then squash them.
Of course, by bugs, he meant any boys who dare to have a crush on their little angels or confess to them.
Serena shuddered, looking at the dark glint in his eyes. She could already see the cogs of his mind going in that direction.
He mumbled. “Not a bad-“
“Nope! Don’t even think about it! I was just joking. Just joking. Don’t be like those possessive fathers who put their daughters in an all girl’s school and then girl’s college,” she snorted.
Jianyu’s expression brightened as he felt that ‘Aha!’ moment. “That’s a brilliant idea! I won’t have to worry about any pests coming near Yubi!”
“…”
Me and my loud mouth! Idiot Serena!
“You will not do any such thing…”
But she saw him lost in his own world, maybe thinking about finding the best girl’s school.
She pinched his hand hard.
“Ow! Ow!”
She flicked his head. “When I say that you won’t be a possessive father, that’s that. I don’t want Yubi to be suffocated by your over-protection.”
Jianyu coughed. “I won’t. I will be a responsible father, and I will treat all our children fairly.”
But I should definitely discuss the daughter’s club idea with bro and Shin, he thought.
Serena sighed.
Well, I hope it turns out like that.
Jianyu smiled. “But those things apart, I really want to thank you, Serena. If you hadn’t given up, then we wouldn’t have got these two precious gems. I didn’t mean anything bad by rejecting the thought of having a second child, but I guess…I was too stubborn and not in a good way. I was too overprotective.”
Serena stared at him for a moment and said, “Come closer.”
He leaned in, and she softly pressed her lips on his. He gently kissed her back.
“Silly. I understood your feelings then, and I understand them now as well. We both were right in our own places.”
She chuckled. “Just that you went a tad bit higher by not allowing for even a checkup.”
Jianyu looked away in embarrassment.
“But I am glad that we talked and sorted it out.”
He nodded. His voice turned a bit hoarse. “Thank you…thank you so much for giving me Zixin, Yubi, and Yunru. I love you.”
Serena smiled, her eyes glistening in tears as well.
“I love you too.”
