Chapter 217: Chapter 75: Miao Miao’s Peculiarity
The young nurses outside and the director were caught up in the conundrum of "age" and couldn’t extricate themselves. Meanwhile, Mo Feng and the others in the ward shifted their attention to Du Xixi.
Du Xixi was now leaning against the hospital bed, with a pillow placed by Ke Lian just now, soft and comfortable. Even if Du Xixi needed to move a bit occasionally, she didn’t feel that the pillow behind her was a burden.
Mo Ying meticulously observed Du Xixi’s pregnant belly, feeling that she’s changed so much since becoming pregnant. She was a thin little girl with barely any meat on her bones back then, and now, with her round belly, she exuded a bit of a beautiful woman’s charm.
But the reason for that... Mo Ying sneakily glanced at Ke Lian, who was looking at Du Xixi with affectionate eyes, as if he couldn’t bear to look away for a moment, and a knowing smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
The pregnancy wasn’t what added meat and charm to Du Xixi; it was only her loving partner’s meticulous care that truly transformed her from the inside out.
"I wonder just how adorable my two nephews will be!" Mo Ying, considering herself Du Xixi’s elder sister, naturally considered the two boys Du Xixi was carrying as her nephews, so her saying this made perfect sense.
"Sister calls them nephews, but I have to call them my nephews!" Mo Feng, shameless in front of his sister, was just worrying whether his unintentional words earlier might have upset the young nurses. Now, he was already smiling and sidling up.
Mo Ying disdainfully pushed her brother’s head away and said unceremoniously, "Stay away from my lovely nephews!"
"I want to get closer to my adorable nephews!" Mo Feng pressed his head against Mo Ying’s hand, trying hard to get closer, but fortunately, Mo Ying wasn’t weak, and they were at an impasse.
Du Xixi watched the siblings’ playful squabble, feeling this was the liveliest day in months, which brought a gentle ripple to her serene heart.
In a childlike manner, she placed her hand on her already large belly, gently patted it through her abdomen, and jokingly said, "Yiyi, Er Er, these are your Aunt Mo Ying and Uncle Mo Feng."
Standing aside, normally silent Diwu Qian and others quickly joined in, introducing themselves to Yiyi and Er Er, who possibly couldn’t understand them yet, even before they were born:
"Hello, I’m your Uncle Diwu."
"Hehe, I’m your Uncle Sun Mulin!"
"Uncle Zhang Xiong is really looking forward to your arrival!"
"Be good, babies. I’m your Aunt Mo Ying’s husband, call me Uncle by marriage!"
Ke Lian and his brothers were similar in age, and when calculated, Ke Lian was actually the youngest of them. Yet, due to Ke Lian’s steady and mature demeanor, he seemed more like someone over a hundred years old compared to Mo Feng, who was older by over ten years, so the age gap wasn’t obvious to them anymore.
When they first met, they decided their rank according to age, though even now they affectionately call Ke Lian "Ah Lan," like a brother calling a younger brother. But in reality, they already considered Ke Lian as the elder brother.
Therefore, when considering how Ke Lian’s children would address them in the future, Diwu Qian and the others had already agreed in unison to have Yiyi and Er Er call them "Uncle" instead of calling them "Uncle" based on age.
Ke Lian, however, was somewhat displeased, feeling that as the father, he hadn’t even introduced himself to the children, yet they had stolen the first chance!
Since everyone in the ward was close and good friends, there was no need to pretend to be calm and composed. So, he cast a cold glance at his "loving" brothers and, using his "parental rights," scooted up to Du Xixi, leaned into her belly, and said, "Be good, babies. I’m Daddy!"
Everyone: ...
Yiyi and Er Er: ...
Oh, this shameful desire to win!
Du Xixi tapped on Ke Lian’s shoulder lightly, telling him to sit back down on the chair, saying, "Why do you always get jealous over odd things!"
Previously jealous over Chen Yin, Miao Miao, and even 2569, and now jealous of Diwu Qian and the others, Du Xixi had ample evidence to confirm that Ke Lian might have been a bottomless pickle jar for jealousy in his past life!
