CHAPTER 130: CHAPTER 46 EDAMAME

Until now, Ke Lian still hasn’t woken up from the immense joy. Although he seemed calm while speaking, his heart was constantly in a daze.

The bachelors at the Military Department are famously plentiful, and there are plenty of those the same age as Ke Lian who don’t even have a girlfriend, let alone married with children. To say they are as rare as a phoenix feather and unicorn horn wouldn’t be an exaggeration.

But what about Ke Lian? He’s considered young at the Military Department, but he got married early, his wife is pregnant, and now it’s confirmed to be twins. Ke Lian gently patted the wrinkles on his clothes beside him, feeling that apart from military merits, this might also be a source of pride for him in the Military Department.

"Truly!" Ke Xing could be said to be the happiest among them. As the children’s biological grandfather, how could he not be joyful at the prospect of having two grandchildren at once?

Ke Xing directly squeezed past Ke Lian, who was standing next to Du Xixi, carefully helped Du Xixi sit down, and then smiled kindly: "Our Xixi really is amazing. My old buddies’ daughters-in-law can’t give birth to two at once!"

This one undoubtedly started to feel proud. After Mo Feng and the others got over their shock, they laughed along with Du Xixi and Ke Lian. Then Mo Feng stepped forward, curiously looking at the baby bump that had grown almost under his nose, and said with a smile, "I mentioned to Ah Lan while I was hospitalized that I feared sister-in-law’s pregnancy wasn’t ordinary. I didn’t expect it to be extraordinary with twins!"

Du Xixi was amused by Mo Feng’s words, but when her gaze swept past the men beside her, she couldn’t help but sigh softly in her heart—Bai Zhan didn’t come.

Mo Feng, Zhang Xiong, Sun Mulin, Diwu Qian, and Bai Zhan, who hadn’t appeared in front of Du Xixi for a long time—Bai Zhan used to be very close with Ke Lian and the others, but after Mo Ying and Ye Wenting started dating, Bai Zhan lost his composure and rarely met with Mo Feng and the others.

The brothers all understood Bai Zhan, and they were somewhat aware of the incident with Bai Zhan early that morning at the Ke Family’s house. For a moment, they didn’t know whether to console him or reprimand him.

But the fact remained that Bai Zhan had withdrawn from the group.

Today, the only ones who came with Mo Feng were Diwu Qian and Sun Mulin. Zhang Xiong, as Ke Lian’s adjutant, had been acting on his behalf in military affairs during Ke Lian’s recovery and was too busy to make it.

Diwu Qian was the most serious among them and a talent in the medical field. At this moment, he adjusted his glasses, took the pregnancy report from Ke Lian’s hand, and looked at it carefully, smiling as he said, "It seems sister-in-law’s health has improved significantly. All the indicators are normal, and my two nephews are very healthy, too."

"Nephews!" Ke Xing turned his head and slapped Ke Lian on the back. "You little rascal! You only mentioned the twins after being asked, and now you need Ah Qian to confirm the genders? How could you be so inattentive!"

In contrast to the most serious brother, Diwu Qian, Sun Mulin was the least serious among them. Out of consideration for Du Xixi’s presence, he wasn’t dressed in eccentric clothes or sloppily dressed, but his tie was loose, and he leaned casually against the sofa back, saying, "Indeed, Uncle Ke should really teach him a lesson!"

Ke Lian wouldn’t dare be disrespectful to his own father, but he felt free around his good friends. He shot a teasing look over, "Oh? Why do I feel this lesson is more suited for you?"

Sun Mulin, who was quickly subdued, flipped back onto the sofa he had been leaning against and stared straight ahead at the coffee table, speaking seriously, "I’m such a well-behaved guy; Ah Lan, you must be mistaken!"

"Hmph!" Ke Lian, well-acquainted with Sun Mulin’s personality, let out a huff without paying attention. Seeing Du Xixi smiling as she watched everyone, he leaned down and asked softly, "Do you want to go back to the room and rest for a bit?"

First it was Ke Lian’s discharge, then Du Xixi’s pregnancy check, and coupled with some traffic on the way back, Ke Lian was worried Du Xixi might be tired, so he asked.

Du Xixi playfully patted him, her eyes carrying a lazy smile: "I didn’t do anything; it was all you busying about. What’s there to rest from?"

Although it was Ke Lian’s discharge, the formalities were handled by him to avoid Du Xixi being jostled by others, with 2569 and Miao Miao accompanying Du Xixi, while he managed everything himself.

Ke Lian also arranged the pregnancy check, and the hovercar back was fully automated. Du Xixi really couldn’t think of a reason for her to be tired.
