Chapter 489: Chapter 488: Another Child? (3 more)

Xu Zhiqiang’s way of confessing, although relentlessly teased by Xu Niannian and Xu Sisi, was in Chen Xiaorou’s eyes the happiest of memories.

Seeing Chen Xiaorou’s coy and bashful smile, Xu Niannian couldn’t help but find it amusing.

Indeed, just like drinking water, one knows oneself whether it’s cold or warm.

Luckily for Chen Xiaorou, she had Xu Zhiqiang in her heart, so no matter what Xu Zhiqiang did, it was good and right.

After spending the day with Chen Xiaorou, Xu Niannian and Xu Sisi didn’t return home until late at night.

Jin Yu and Jin Ruiyang came to pick them up.

On the way, the usually talkative Xu Sisi was rather silent.

Instead, Jin Ruiyang was the more talkative one.

That night, when Xu Niannian went to bed, she tried to communicate with the baby but found there was still no response at all.

Xu Niannian really started to panic then.

"Jin Yu, could something have happened to the baby?"

Upon hearing that there might be something wrong with the baby, Jin Yu’s expression changed, "What’s wrong? Is your stomach uncomfortable? I’ll take you to the hospital, let’s go."

"Hey, wait a minute," Xu Niannian said, just worried and not certain of anything.

"First, to the hospital."

Jin Yu, without a second word, insisted on taking her there.

Xu Niannian was also anxious. Seeing Jin Yu’s insistence, she thought it best to just go to the hospital and check.

To avoid worrying others, Jin Yu specifically told the old lady before taking Xu Niannian out.

However, he only mentioned they were going to get some traditional medicine for stabilizing the pregnancy, nothing else.

The two of them headed straight for Old Wu’s place, who was woken up in the middle of the night, yawning endlessly.

"Can’t you two come during the day?" Old Wu said irritably.

It certainly wasn’t good to disturb someone late at night, and Xu Niannian apologetically said, "Sorry for disturbing your rest, Old Wu."

Only then did Old Wu squint his eyes open to look at Xu Niannian.

And boy, was that look a big deal.

Old Wu rubbed his eyes, "Wow, how come your belly is so big?"

Then, realizing the situation, he said with a chuckle, "Congratulations, congratulations."

Jin Yu didn’t have the patience for small talk with Old Wu. They were close enough not to bother with pleasantries, so he went straight to the point, "Could you check if there’s anything wrong with my wife’s baby?"

Because on the way here Xu Niannian said her stomach didn’t hurt and she had no particular reactions, just that the baby stopped interacting with her suddenly.

So Jin Yu wasn’t as panicked as one might expect.

"Stretch out your hand," said Old Wu, no longer prattling, realizing it was a serious matter.

Xu Niannian obediently stretched out her hand.

Old Wu closed his eyes, took Xu Niannian’s pulse, and after a long while, suddenly opened his eyes wide, "Congratulations, Jin Yu, you’re quite the man."

"Hmm?" Jin Yu initially thought Old Wu was congratulating him on becoming a father, which baffled him.

With such a huge belly, could he not know his wife was pregnant?

So Jin Yu thought Old Wu’s congratulations were rather superfluous.

"Is the baby okay?" Xu Niannian anxiously asked.

Smiling and stroking his beard, Old Wu said, "There isn’t much of a problem, she just needs to move around more often. It’s just that the other child’s pulse is a little weak."

"The other child?" Xu Niannian and Jin Yu simultaneously asked, looking incredulously at Old Wu.

What did that mean?

What does he mean by ’the other child’?

Isn’t there just one child in the belly?

Old Wu teased Jin Yu with a smile, "You’re quite something, lad. Just got married and already got two little ones, more productive than your father."

"Two?" Now Jin Yu and Xu Niannian finally understood what Old Wu meant.

Old Wu was left bewildered by their shocked reactions and frowned, "You didn’t know you had two babies in there?"

"Two children?"

Xu Niannian and Jin Yu exchanged looks, both filled with astonishment.

Though her belly was large, looking very much like twins’, it was exactly because of the resemblance that Xu Niannian harbored great hope and had gone to the hospital several times with Jin Yu to check.

Each time the doctors had said there was only one.

And now they were being told there were two?

How could they not be astonished?

The shock was even stronger than if they had known from the start.

Xu Niannian involuntarily covered her mouth. Could it be?

Jin Yu, slightly calmer, asked Old Wu with composure, "Old Wu, are you sure there’s no mistake in your examination? Niannian and I have been to the hospital several times, and each time they told us there was only one child."

Old Wu got defensive the moment Jin Yu spoke the first sentence.

Hey, what, the young man doesn’t trust his medical skills now?

When he heard that they had been to the hospital several times, Old Wu then frowned and said to Xu Niannian, "Stretch out your hand again, I’ll check one more time."

Xu Niannian quickly stretched out her hand again.

After feeling her pulse for a while, Old Wu confidently stated, "It seems my old medical skills haven’t deteriorated; there are indeed two children, no doubt, so stop questioning it."

Receiving a definitive answer from Old Wu, Xu Niannian still found it hard to believe, after all, the hospital had also performed several checks.

She let Old Wu examine her several more times.

Knowing Xu Niannian’s anxious feelings, Old Wu didn’t mind her disbelief in his skills and kindly examined her multiple times.

But no matter how many times, Old Wu’s answer remained the same.

On the way back, Xu Niannian sat on the bed still somewhat dazed.

Touching her rounded belly, her lips eventually curled into a smile, "Babies."

She tilted her head to Jin Yu and said, "Jin Yu, we really do have two babies now."
