Su Jifeng snorted coldly and did not say anything else. Zhao Youlin and the others saw the interaction between the two of them and could not help but smile when they looked at each other.
Not long after the young nurse came out, two other young nurses carefully carried two children wrapped in clean and soft white cloths and walked out.
Ye Yan and Su Jifeng both wanted to reach out to carry the children, but they were afraid of hurting the children.
The two nurses were seasoned. As they watched the two worried men, they immediately understood their concerns. Smiling, they said, “Do you want to carry the children? It’s okay. Come here, you can carry them. But only for a while. We still have to take the children to the bath.”
The two men looked at each other before carefully reaching out to hold the two children.
The children who had just been born were not very good-looking. They had little hair and their small faces were red. Their eyes still remained closed.
However, in the eyes of the two men, they were looking at the most beautiful creatures in the world. The two men held the children stiffly, as if they were holding a fragile object. Their uncharacteristically nervous expressions were actually funny.
Perhaps it was from their unfamiliarity with holding children. The two children had narrowed their eyes and suddenly opened their mouths and burst into tears.
The two grown men were shocked. Their eyes widened and they were at a loss as they asked for help from the people beside them. When the elders saw their appearance, the gloating expressions on their faces only grew.
Fortunately, the two nurses immediately carried the child back when they heard the crying. They greeted them and left with the children in their arms.
Su Jifeng and Ye Yan breathed a sigh of relief this time. Although they felt a little embarrassed, the children were barely palm-sized. If they were hurt, they could blame themselves to death, not to mention the others.
After the nurses left, the door of the delivery room was opened again. Su He, who had just given birth and was still very weak, was being wheeled out.
Ye Yan quickly went up and grabbed Su He’s hand.
Su He was somewhat awake. When she saw Ye Yan smile, she asked in a hoarse voice, “The… The children?”
“They are beautiful, Xiao Qi. Thank you… thank you for being willing to keep these two children even though I forgot you. Thank you for giving me a chance… for letting me be able to love you and our children well.
Su He felt water dripping on the back of her hand. When she looked down, she saw Ye Yan standing by the bed on one knee. Tears flowed down his cheeks and fell onto the back of her hand.
Ye Yan’s heart was filled with fear. Finally, when he saw Su He and the children appear in front of him safely, he completely relaxed.
Many people said that a man should not cry easily, but that was only because they did not have anyone to cry for. Judging whether a person was a real man had nothing to do with tears.
Su He was stunned for a moment before she came back to her senses. She reached out to wipe the tears off Ye Yan’s face. “Silly, you should be happy about this. Why are you crying?”
ere
Although she said that, Su He’s eyes were already wet. She could not restrain drops of tears from flowing out of her eyes. They fell on the back of her hand, mixing with Ye Yan’s tears.
She had just given birth, and it was a different kind of rebirth for Ye Yan. From then on, they were no longer two people, but a family that was closely connected to each other. The few people beside them, including Su Jifeng, watched this scene quietly. No one said anything to disturb them.
The news that the eldest lady of the Su family had given birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix twins for the current head of the Ye family, one of the four most powerful families in Shalnork, quickly spread throughout the upper-class society.
In the past few days, regardless of the fact whether they had any dealings with the Su family or not, the upper-class people had all looked for ways to get in touch with them. They just wanted to use the congratulations to build a good relationship with the Ye family and the Su family.
Of course, all of this had nothing to do with Su He.
Although it was a premature birth, Su He was unexpectedly successful when she gave birth to two children. She did not suffer much.
After staying in the hospital for a few days, Ye Yan brought Su He and the child back to the Su family. As for why he did not return to the Ye family and returned to the Su family, it was naturally because Ye Yan’s parents had passed away early. Most of the elders of the Ye family did not have much interaction with him. Not only would they not receive meticulous care when they brought Su He back, but they also did not care for Ye Yan, he might even be treated slowly, and this was exactly what Ye Yan did not want to see.
On the other hand, of course, it was also because the security of the Ye family was not as tight as that of the Su family. If he returned at this time, he was afraid that the family would already be housing some aunties who had gotten wind of it and were rushing over to curry favor with him. There would also be some strangers whom he had probably never met before. Su He was still recuperating, so how could Ye Yan bear to let her face the harassment of those people?
He might as well stay in the Su family for a period of time. Those people may dare to barge into the Ye family, but they would never dream of doing it with the Su family.
“Mom, Mom, why does little aunt’s baby look so red? It’s so ugly!” Children spoke without fear. Joy stared at the two little babies lying side by side in the cradle with his big, watery eyes. He turned his head and shouted at the adults in confusion. “Pfft…” Zhao Youlin did not expect her son to be able to amaze everyone with a single feat. She looked at Su He and Ye Yan awkwardly, afraid that the two of them would be angry because of Joy’s words. After all, no parent would like to hear that their child was ugly.
Su He did not mind Joy’s words. She put down the cup in her hand and walked to Joy’s side. She smiled and said, “I also think that the baby is a little ugly. However, the baby has only just been born, and its little face has yet to grow. When the baby grows up a little, the red spots on its body will disappear, and it will become white, fat, and chubby. When that time comes, it will be much cuter.”
In fact, Su He’s first impression when she saw the two children was that they were so ugly, small, and red, just like little monkeys. After knowing her thoughts, Jiang Wenfang laughed for a long time, telling her that everyone was basically like this when they were born, and that they would naturally look better when they were older.
Su He felt slightly better. She was looking forward to what her children would look like when they grew up.
Joy’s eyes lit up when he heard Su He’s words. He held the cradle with both hands and stared at the baby in the cradle without blinking. He asked softly, “When will the babies grow up?”
“Very soon. The babies will grow up very quickly.”
Joy nodded hurriedly when he heard this. “Yes, yes. Then I’ll wait for them to grow up before playing with them. Mom said that I will be the elder brother. I will bring them to play and protect them in the future.”
