Huo Jinyao’s reaction was a little too strong. Feeling that something wasn’t right, Su Qingsang frowned.

“You’re pregnant, you’re pregnant. Oh my god.” Huo Jinyao unwittingly tightened his grip. His eyes filled with shock and disbelief, he looked at Su Qingsang. “Wife, you’re actually pregnant? Qingsang, you’re actually pregnant. Eight weeks, how long is eight weeks? Y-you only found out today? Or did you already know?”

Su Qingsang crossed her arms in front of her chest. She was starting to get confused by Huo Jinyao’s incoherent reaction.

“I just found out today.”

Huo Jinyao blinked his eyes and looked at the words “eight weeks pregnant.” He suddenly picked Su Qingsang up and turned her around.

Although it was past dinner time, there were still a lot of people in the restaurant. Feeling the gazes of the people around her, Su Qingsang quickly patted Huo Jinyao on the shoulder.

“Huo Jinyao, put me down quickly.”

“I won’t.” Huo Jinyao hugged Su Qingsang tightly and shook his head. “I won’t. Honey, you’re pregnant. You’re actually pregnant.”

“Huo Jinyao, be careful. Did you hear me when I said to put me down?”

Huo Jinyao snapped out of his daze. He put Su Qingsang down gently.

After letting go of Su Qingsang, he took a big step back. He looked Su Qingsang up and down in surprise.

“I’m sorry. I’m just so happy.” As he spoke, he leaned over and kissed Su Qingsang on the lips.

Su Qingsang looked at Huo Jinyao’s actions and blinked. “Huo Jinyao?”

“Come, come, sit down, honey.”

Huo Jinyao helped Su Qingsang sit down on the chair, as if he was treating a porcelain doll.

Su Qingsang sat down and wanted to say something, but Huo Jinyao didn’t give her a chance to.

“Honey, you’re pregnant? Two months? Tell me, what should I pay attention to?”

“Huo Jinyao?” She couldn’t understand his reaction. Did he not know about this before?

“No, wait a minute.”

Huo Jinyao took out his phone and turned on the recording function. Then, he looked at Su Qingsang and said, “Come, tell me, I’ll record it.”

Su Qingsang was a little speechless. This silly husband was hers?

“Huo Jinyao.”

“Tell me. I’ll listen.”

Su Qingsang turned off his phone and put it aside. Her clear eyes stared at Huo Jinyao’s face. “You came in a sports car and with roses today. Isn’t it because you knew that I was pregnant?”

“I didn’t know.”

Huo Jinyao slapped his forehead. It was only then that he realized that Su Qingsang had misunderstood. “Honey, how can you think of me like that? Can’t I be nice to you even if there’s nothing special?”

“One who is unaccountably solicitous is hiding evil intentions.” Even if she didn’t say the latter part, Huo Jinyao would understand.

“Honey –”

Su Qingsang lowered her head. She was being petty today, but she said, “You said you didn’t want to –”

“I said I don’t want to sleep on the sofa.” Huo Jinyao held her hand with an earnest expression. “Honey, I already know that I was wrong about getting drunk the day before yesterday. Won’t you forgive me just this once?”

Su Qingsang nodded. She finally understood that she had made a mistake. Of course, Huo Jinyao didn’t feel much better.

“So, today, you came with a sports car, roses, and a candlelit dinner to apologize for getting drunk?”

“Honey, don’t make it sound so bad. Didn’t I already apologize yesterday? Can’t I just want to treat you well?”

The expression in his eyes were sincere, and Su Qingsang couldn’t help but laugh. She looked at him, who was squatting beside her, and gave him a gentle pat.

“Get up and sit down. What are you squatting here for?”

There were still other people here.

“Honey.” Huo Jinyao finally recovered from the excitement just now. He looked at Su Qingsang and scratched his head. “Are you really pregnant?”

“Yes.” Su Qingsang nodded. “I have been since I came back from Lin City.”

There were two times when they didn’t take any protective measures. It was probably during that time.

“I’m going to be a father?”

“Yes.” Su Qingsang didn’t know if it was her imagination, but she felt that Huo Jinyao was being a little silly today.

Huo Jinyao’s next move was even more silly. He stared at her stomach and reached out his hand very carefully.

“Can I touch him?”

Su Qingsang found it a little funny. “Theoretically, he’s not even the size of an egg. You can’t even feel him.”

“I know, I just want to touch him.”

Huo Jinyao looked very pious and even nervously rubbed his hands together. He raised his hand and gently placed them on Su Qingsang’s belly.

It was still flat, and there was nothing there. He looked up at Su Qingsang.

“That’s it?”

“Pfft.” Su Qingsang couldn’t hold it in anymore. “Huo Jinyao, that’s enough. It hasn’t even been two months.”

Huo Jinyao didn’t retract his hand. He pressed his face against Su Qingsang’s stomach. There wasn’t the slightest hint of awkwardness or embarrassment on his face from Su Qingsang’s mockery.

“I don’t care. I think he should know.”

He stepped back and looked at Su Qingsang’s belly seriously. “Ahem. Hi, how are you? I’m your father.”

Su Qingsang looked at his silly face. She wanted to laugh, but she also wanted to cry.

She had always thought that he didn’t like children. She didn’t expect his reaction to make her feel so warm and touched.

There was no reaction. Huo Jinyao repeated himself.

“Hello, baby. I’m your father.”

“How silly.” Su Qingsang pinched his nose and didn’t forget to correct the mistake in his words. “It’s not you, it’s you guys.”

You guys? Huo Jinyao looked up at her with a blank expression. “What do you mean by you guys?”

“It’s you guys.” Didn’t he already see it just now? Su Qingsang picked up the checklist and pointed at one of them.

“Do you see it? Two fetal sacs.”

“What? What do you mean?”Huo Jinyao didn’t understand.

Su Qingsang was now very sure that Huo Jinyao was in a state of shock from finding out that he was going to be a father. His IQ was completely off the charts.

“Dear Mr. Huo, it’s not you, it’s you guys. That means, there’s not one, but two here.”

“Two?” Huo Jinyao was like a repeater.

“Yes, two.”

“Wife?”

“Huo Jinyao.” Su Qingsang looked at his stunned expression and wondered if she should take a picture of him like this, and then use it to mock him after many years?

“Don’t you understand? Twins.”

Two? Twins?

Huo Jinyao’s mouth was agape. He had only seen the eighth week of gestation and hadn’t processed Su Qingsang’s words yet.

He looked at Su Qingsang, then at the examination report, and then at Su Qingsang’s belly.

He suddenly took a big step back. “Ah. You, you mean, wife, you mean…”

As if he had seen a miracle, se pointed at Su Qingsang’s belly.

“How silly.” Su Qingsang looked at Huo Jinyao’s silly mannerism and lowered her head to touch her stomach. “My babies, you’re so pitiful. Your father has already lost his mind.”

“Ah!” Huo Jinyao had lived for more than thirty years but had never lost control like this.

He was completely incoherent now.

With a complicated expression on his face, he raised his hands. He muttered, “Oh my god, oh my god”. He paced back and forth in the same spot. His movements were so big that it had already attracted the attention of the other people in the restaurant.

Su Qingsang was extremely embarrassed by his actions. She stood up, grabbed his hand, dragged him to sit down beside her, and pressed his body down.

“Huo Jinyao, that’s enough. Calm down.”

“How can I calm down?” Huo Jinyao felt his heart beating wildly. “Twins? Honey, are you having twins? Oh my god, I’m actually going to have two children. Oh my god.”

He couldn’t calm down at all and stood up. Su Qingsang pressed his body back down but he stood up again.

He suddenly picked up the phone on the table. Su Qingsang didn’t have time to stop him as his phone was already out.

“Uncle Cheng? Let Grandpa answer the phone. Is Grandpa upstairs? Mom? It’s me. Yes. Qingsang is pregnant. Yes. You’re going to be a grandmother. Grandpa is going to be a great-grandfather. Yes. Qingsang is pregnant. Yes. Pregnant. Mom, let me tell you, Qingsang is pregnant with twins. You know about twins, right? We’ve never had twins in our family. Qingsang is pregnant.”

His voice wasn’t loud, but after the commotion just now, many people nearby were looking in his direction.

Feeling too ashamed to look at anyone else, Su Qingsang covered her face.

She looked at Huo Jinyao, who was like a repeater. He kept repeating those two sentences: Qingsang is pregnant. They’re twins.

After hanging up on the Huo family, Huo Jinyao felt that it still wasn’t enough. He started to call the others.

“Junsheng? Let me tell you. My wife is pregnant. Yes, Qingsang is pregnant. Twins. Hahahaha. Twins. You know? My wife is pregnant with twins.”

“Mohan? Let me tell you. Qingsang is pregnant. Qingsang. Yes, that’s my wife. Hahahaha. Sorry, let me laugh for a while. I’m so happy. Yes. She’s pregnant. Yes. I’m going to be a father, And a father of two children. Hahahaha. I’m good, right? Yes, that’s it. My wife is pregnant with twins. Hahahaha.”

“Xianyun? Hahahaha. I’m so happy. Let me tell you a piece of good news…”

“Xianyang. I’ll tell you, Xianyang. Hahahaha, no, I’m too happy…”

Su Qingsang buried her face into the table and felt the gazes from all directions. She decided to never come to this restaurant again.

After Huo Jinyao finally finished his phone calls and was done showing off, he still couldn’t hide the pride on his face. To him, the gazes around him weren’t worth mentioning at all. They were all envious. These people were just envious.

“Honey, I’m so happy.”

Su Qingsang didn’t want to talk to him anymore. The dishes had already been served. She glanced at Huo Jinyao and asked, “Do you want to eat?”

“Yes.” Huo Jinyao put his phone aside and said, “I’ll call after I eat.”

He saw the hidden disdain in Su Qingsang’s eyes. He changed the topic and said, “Honey, let’s eat. By the way, what do you need to eat at this time? Something nutritious? Or something light? There’s nothing here that you can’t eat, right? If there is, you have to tell me.”

“Huo Jinyao.” Su Qingsang interrupted him and said, “Can I make a request?”

“Go ahead.” He would agree to it even if there were ten of them, let alone one.

“Shut up and let me eat in peace now. Is that okay?”

Huo Jinyao blinked and was about to speak when Su Qingsang raised her index finger. “Be quiet. I want to eat.”

Huo Jinyao, who was just despised by his wife, wasn’t angry at all. He propped up his chin with one hand and watched Su Qingsang eat.

Su Qingsang felt uncomfortable under his stare. “What are you doing?”

“Honey, I find you so beautiful.”

“Thank you, I got it. Can you eat now?”

Huo Jinyao began to eat. However, just as he picked up his fork and knife, he remembered something else. “Honey, can you eat western food? This salad seems to be cold. Do you want me to help you pass on it?”

“Huo Jinyao, be quiet.”

“Okay.”

Huo Jinyao cut a piece of steak and remembered something else. “Honey, do you think they will fight in your stomach?”

“Huo Jinyao, do you want me to remind you that they are still in the fetal sac?” Fight? Did he think she was pregnant with Nezha?

“Okay.” Huo Jinyao swallowed the steak and thought of something else. “Honey, do you think they’re boys or girls?”

“I don’t know.” Su Qingsang took a deep breath and raised her head to glare at Huo Jinyao. Her eyes were as sharp as knives. “Be quiet.”

Aggrieved, Huo Jinyao shut his mouth, but he had other questions to ask. Just as he moved his lips, Su Qingsang shot daggers at him again.

He had no choice but to lower his head and continue eating. From the aggrieved look on his face, those who didn’t know would think that she had bullied him.

Su Qingsang tightened her grip on the knife and fork and reminded herself. Don’t be angry, don’t be angry. You’re pregnant. You have to maintain a happy mood.

However, after being provoked by Huo Jinyao’s silly actions, she forgot about the pregnancy vomiting. The meal went smoothly. At least there was no nausea.

After the meal, when Huo Jinyao went to pay the bill, he was told that it was free.

The owner of the restaurant knew Huo Jinyao. He had made such a big move just now that the owner found out about it.

“Congratulations, Huo Jinyao. Today’s meal is on me. Come to our restaurant again next time.”

“Thank you. I’ll come again next time.”

Huo Jinyao was in high spirits because of the celebratory news. He held her in his arms and walked out.

The smile on Huo Jinyao’s face didn’t disappear even after he got into the car. Su Qingsang couldn’t stand the silly look on his face. She turned to look at the night view of Rong City outside the car window and chose not to look at him.

She noticed that Huo Jinyao was driving very slowly. She couldn’t help but look at him. Yep, it was slower than 20 miles per hour.

“Huo Jinyao, you drive a sports car, right?”

“I know.” The corners of Huo Jinyao’s lips curled up. “But we can’t drive too fast now.”

Su Qingsang felt speechless as she looked at the cars that passed her one after another. Then, the drivers would glance at her from time to time, as if they were looking at a retard.

She lowered her head and decided to play dead.

They finally got home after spending twice as much time getting home as usual. As soon as Su Qingsang and Huo Jinyao stepped out of the elevator, they saw three people standing outside.

Huo Mingguang, Liu Tongjia, and Grandpa Huo.

“Grandpa, Dad, Mom?”

“Grandpa, Dad, Auntie.”

Su Qingsang was shocked by this scene and looked at the time. They rushed over almost as soon as Huo Jinyao called.

“You’re back?”

It was Old Master Huo who spoke first. He looked at Su Qingsang’s belly. It wasn’t just him. Huo Mingguang and his wife were also doing the same.

However, in her hands, Su Qingsang was holding a large bouquet of roses, blocking their view.

Even so, Su Qingsang still felt uncomfortable from being stared at. She couldn’t help but glare at Huo Jinyao. It was all his fault. He had made such a big commotion.

Liu Tongjia looked at Su Qingsang and said in an unusually gentle tone, “How are you? Are you feeling unwell?”

Su Qingsang shook her head. Huo Jinyao opened the door and let them in. The group of people entered the door. Liu Tongjia saw Huo Jinyao take the initiative to put away the roses in Su Qingsang’s hand. Then, he carefully helped Su Qingsang sit down.

Su Qingsang felt that it was too dramatic, and too embarrassing. With all the elders around, Huo Jinyao’s action really made her feel uncomfortable.

However, Huo Jinyao didn’t think so, and neither did Liu Tongjia.

“Why are you eating out? Isn’t it dirty? Is Auntie Yu’s cooking not good? Why don’t I get Auntie Zhou to come over and make soup for you every day?”

“No, no, no.” Huo Mingguang objected. “Auntie Zhou’s cooking isn’t bad, but she doesn’t have a dietitian’s license. In my opinion, hire a dietitian and a chef. Bring them along every day.”

“That’s good.” Old Master Huo also felt that it was good. “Hire a dietitian, and then hire a chef. Oh right, get Qingsang a driver. From now on, don’t drive to work by yourself anymore.”

“Why do you need to go to work?” Liu Tongjia looked at Su Qingsang’s stomach. “They have a lot of tasks to do in the hospital and they’re all tiring tasks. In my opinion, don’t go to work. Just stay at home and take care of yourself.”

“Yes, yes, yes.” Huo Mingguang nodded, and thought it was a good idea. “I think you should just stay at home and rest. You can also move back home so that your mother can take care of you.”

“Okay.” Huo Jinyao listened to the suggestions of the elders and felt that it was a good idea. “I don’t have the experience with taking care of pregnant women either. That’s very good.”

“That’s right. Then it’s decided.”

The three elders spoke one after another, and Huo Jinyao seemed to agree with them. The corners of Su Qingsang’s mouth twitched. While they were having a heated discussion, she spoke in a somewhat disappointing manner.

“I’m sorry. I don’t plan to stop going to work.”

“You can even stay at home…” Halfway through Liu Tongjia’s sentence, she suddenly turned around and looked at Su Qingsang. “What did you say?”

“I said, I don’t plan to stop going to work.” Su Qingsang was very insistent on this matter. “I’m in good health. There’s nothing wrong with my health. Besides, I’m a doctor myself. I know how to take care of myself. Also, if I don’t go to work and stay at home every day, it might not be a good thing for the child’s development.”

The three elders and Huo Jinyao fell silent. They looked at each other and finally looked at Su Qingsang.

Huo Jinyao furrowed his brows tightly. “Qingsang, this isn’t a normal pregnancy. You’re pregnant with twins.”

“I know. Our Hospital has even delivered quintuplets before,” Su Qingsang said. “That pregnant woman didn’t rest the entire time either.”

Of course, due to her large belly and the sheer number of fetuses, she had to be hospitalized later on.

After a moment of silence, Old Master Huo looked at Su Qingsang with disapproval in his eyes.

“Qingsang, I think what Jinyao said makes sense. This isn’t a normal pregnancy. You’re pregnant with twins. It’s different.”

“There’s nothing different.” It was just an extra baby in her belly. To her, it was no different.

“Grandpa, don’t worry. I’m in excellent health. Besides, I’m an obstetrician and gynecologist myself. I’ll take good care of myself. Don’t worry.”

Su Qingsang was a resolute person. Since she had already made up her mind, no one else could persuade her.

The elders looked at each other. They probably didn’t expect Su Qingsang to be so determined. In the end, all of them turned to look at Huo Jinyao.

“Dad, Mom, Grandpa. It’s getting late. Why don’t you guys go back and rest? If there’s anything, why don’t we talk about it tomorrow?”

Huo Jinyao was thinking of coming back to persuade Su Qingsang after they grew a little older. However, Old Master Huo was hesitant. In his opinion, Su Qingsang naturally should stay in the old mansion. It was best to have someone take care of her.

In the end, Huo Jinyao finally succeeded in persuading the elders to go back first.

After sending the elders away, Huo Jinyao turned around and saw that Su Qingsang was no longer in the living room. Huo Jinyao thought that she had gone back to her room, but in the end, he found her in the study.

“Honey?” Huo Jinyao went up to her nervously. “I heard that even computers have radiation. Why don’t you stop working?”

“The earth is a big magnetic field. There’s radiation itself.”

Su Qingsang still had to finish her thesis from yesterday, and there were still some documents that needed to be sorted out.

“Honey.” Huo Jinyao squeezed into her chair and sat down with her. “You’re already pregnant, there’s no need to work so hard. It’s the same whether it’s a thesis or a test. We’ll talk about it later.”

“Huo Jinyao.” Su Qingsang was squeezed to the point that she had nowhere to sit. Huo Jinyao simply picked her up and let her sit on his lap.

Helpless, she patted his arm. “First of all, I’m a doctor and an obstetrician. I know better than you what I can and cannot do. Second of all, it’s not even three months yet. Like I said, it’s only two fetal sacs. Even if they were a little older, the right amount of exercise would make it easier for me to give birth. Do you understand?”

“…”

“So, please don’t be so nervous. I’ll say it again. I’m a doctor.”

Su Qingsang didn’t have the patience to deal with him anymore. “Alright, you can leave now. Let me finish my work, okay?”

Huo Jinyao: “…”

Su Qingsang didn’t expect that the entire hospital would know that she was pregnant the next day. Yesterday, Huo Jinyao was waiting for her at the entrance of the hospital, and many people saw it. Some even took photos and posted them on the hospital’s internal forum.

All Su Qingsang’s colleagues in the hospital knew she married well. Huo Jinyao had been to the hospital a few times.

He was a famous person in Rong City and had appeared on television before. After he showed off yesterday, the young girl from the ultrasound department started gossiping on the forum.

Su Qingsang was pregnant, and they were twins. Therefore, what Huo Jinyao did yesterday was to celebrate his wife’s pregnancy.

When Su Qingsang entered the hospital, she met the envious gazes and incessant blessings from all her colleagues. It made her feel embarrassed.

As soon as she entered the office, Sun Huiya came over as well. She congratulated her repeatedly. Truthfully, there had never been a gynecologist or obstetrician in the hospital who had twins before. She was the first.

Su Qingsang felt as if she had been surrounded by people all day. She really wasn’t used to that feeling. Since she was surrounded by a group of colleagues congratulating her, she took the initiative to offer to treat them to dinner that night.

She made a call to Huo Jinyao and arranged a place for dinner. However, an uninvited guest arrived at her office.
