His Genius Wife Is A Superstar

Chapter 731 - Double The Blessings

It worked!

Hallelujah!

There was a sweet smile on her lips when the kiss ended. Then she laid her head on his chest and cuddled with him. If she were a cat, Jin Liwei had no doubt in mind that she would be purring by now. Despite this, he didn’t immediately relax. He was already learning quickly that mood swings came out of nowhere and smacked one in the face with vengeance when one least expected it. With a tense body, he sat still and waited for her to go off another weird tangent about an imaginary fault of his.

One minute...

Two minutes...

She took a deep inhale of his scent, closed her eyes with a satisfied expression, and went to sleep. It was only when her breathing became deep and regular that Jin Liwei released a huge sigh of relief.

It was a crude method but kissing her brains out to shut her up seemed very effective. This time, at least. His lips curved up when he thought about it.

He looked down at her beautiful sleeping face and his smile deepened. Even though she almost drove him crazy with her wild mood swings in less than 24 hours, he couldn’t help but love her even more. His gaze dropped from her face down her body. Unable to stop himself, he reached out a hand and touched her still flat belly. His babies were inside there.

Holy. Shit.

He was going to be a father!

Unlike her, there wasn’t an ounce of apprehension in him at the thought of becoming a parent. On the contrary, he felt extremely excited. He couldn’t wait until his babies were born. He was looking forward to meeting them and learning if they looked more like him or her or maybe a mixture both.

His mind became filled with this kind of wonderful thoughts and somewhat numbed the deep, throbbing pain of his injuries. Dropping a kiss on his baby girl’s forehead, his eyes drooped close and he began sleeping as well.

Dragon Palace Home #10.

Later that evening, Iris and Jin Liwei retired to their bedroom. Today was like a roller coaster ride for both of them—physically, emotionally and mentally. Despite the bone-deep tired feeling weighing down on them, there was a lively excitement thrumming deep within themselves which gave them enough energy for a smile.

Iris led Jin Liwei to the bathroom and looked at him with wide eyes filled with wonder. "Twins, darling. We’re going to have twins!"

"En." He reached out and tucked a lock of long hair behind her ear. "Twins mean double the blessings."

She nodded which made him smile. He studied her expression and was glad to see no signs of fear anymore. Wonder and excitement lit up her face instead. This was good. He hoped that she would feel this way everyday so that she could forget all about her fear of becoming a bad mother. [This novel is a contracted work with W e b n o v e l . c o m (remove spaces).

"Darling, your sperm...they’re too dangerous," she said which made him raise an eyebrow. "It was only that one time that your condom broke but here I am now, pregnant. And with twins to boot!"

He chuckled. "Second Brother said that it only takes one strong swimmer, or maybe in our case, two strong swimmers to accomplish the job. And tell me, who was it again who secretly hired a nutritionist and colluded with the chef since the summer to change my diet in order to improve the taste, quality and volume of my semen?"

A lovely giggle flowed out of her upturned lips, sounding like the tinkling of crystal bells echoing inside the bathroom. The pregnancy glow made her bloom like the most beautiful flower. It distracted him.

"You look stunning," he told her.

"Thank you." Her smile became brighter. "And you..." Her smile faltered. "You look awful, darling."

He could only sigh at her honesty. It wasn’t like he was fishing for compliments from her, but did she need to be so honest especially when the atmosphere just now was so nice and romantic? He grunted in regret at the lost romantic atmosphere. Then he began carefully taking off his clothes.

"Don’t move. I’ll do it." She took over in unbuttoning his shirt.

After taking all of his clothes except his boxers, she began removing the tight bandages wrapped mainly around his torso. Her movements were slow, cautious, and very gentle.

Iris gasped in horror when his skin was revealed after the bandages were taken off. His entire back down to his posterior hips and thighs were covered with large, ugly and swollen bruises.

"Li-liwei...this," she choked and started trembling, her pain-filled eyes roving all over his bruised back.

He was about to turn around and face her but she stopped him. "Stay still! You must be hurting so much right now. Please don’t make any unnecessary movements. How did you survive sitting in the car on our way home? Oh no! I shouldn’t have slept on your chest and put my weight on you. Why didn’t you tell me? I didn’t expect your bruises to look this terrible!"

"Love, listen to me." He turned around and faced her despite her protests. Then he held her shoulders firmly, forcing her to pay attention to him. "They look worse than they feel."

She shook her head.

"Trust me," he said.

"Are they hurting now? Don’t lie to me!"

He hesitated before sighing. "Yeah."

"Wait here. I’ll get your medicine." She was already speeding off out of the bathroom before he could reply.

"Xiulan, don’t run! You’re pregnant!"
