After Doctor Jiang and Meng Zhuqing had left, An Jing looked at Xiao Changyi again, and Xiao Changyi looked back at her. The two gazed at each other in silence, neither speaking.
Finally, An Jing couldn't help but tease, "What's the matter, afraid I'll really give birth to several babies this time?"
Xiao Changyi responded with a counter-question, "Jing Er, if we really do have several babies this time, shall we let the old man take care of them?"
An Jing: "..."
After remaining silent for quite a while, An Jing finally said, half laughing and half crying, "You clearly agreed that we would take care of the children ourselves. How can you go back on your word?"
"Several..." Xiao Changyi paused for a long time before he continued, "That's too many..."
"Pfft." An Jing laughed out loud. "If there really are several babies in my belly, they'd be heartbroken to hear you say this. What kind of father says things like that?"
Xiao Changyi remained silent.
