Mu Li saw her and seemed to find her rather pitiful . "Maybe you should sleep a while longer . We can go in the afternoon . "
Xuxu refused . "It's alright . I'll wash up now . "
She walked to the bathroom .
When she came out, Mu Li had prepared milk and bread for her .
Before eating breakfast, she took out a tomato from the fridge .
She ate both tomato and a slice of bread at the same time . Mu Li thought the tomato, which Xuxu had taken out from the fridge, was too cold . She frowned and lightly chided her, "Xuxu, why do you like eating such cold tomatoes? You'll get a stomachache if you eat it first thing in the morning . "
Xuxu didn't look at her but continued munching on her tomato . She quipped, "It's fine . That time I…"
Mu Li eyed her suspiciously . "What do you mean by that time?"

"Nothing much . " Xuxu realized that she had a slip of tongue . So, she casually brushed it aside . She instantly diverted the topic . "Shouldn't we register before heading there for a checkup?"
It was a smooth transition to a different topic . Even the shrewd Mu Li didn't realize that Xuxu led her along . "We don't need to . President Wang has helped us to register in advance so we can go there any time . We don't need to queue for the ultrasound scan as well . "
Xuxu nodded after hearing her . She then grinned with a mischievous gleam in her eyes . "It's good to have connections . "
"Hurry up and drink your milk . " Mu Li affectionately smiled at her and she rose . "I'll help you tidy your room . "
She turned around almost instantly .
Xuxu saw how adamant she was and so she didn't protest .
…
Mu Li heard the doctor's diagnosis, and she scrutinized the results of the ultrasound scan in disbelief . It overwhelmed her with excitement .
"Doctor, are you saying that our Xuxu is carrying twins?"

The news was simply too exhilarating . She felt light-headed as though she was in a dream .
The doctor seemed affected by her excitement and he smiled brightly . "Yes, you heard me correctly . It could either be both boys, both girls or even a girl and boy . "
Twins… a girl and a boy…
Mu Li grabbed Xuxu with her emotions bursting . She hugged her . "Oh my god! This is wonderful! Our Xuxu is really capable . "
The man standing outside was listening to the conversation with excitement when he felt slightly indignant when he heard Mu Li's compliments .
Hmph! Clearly, it was her son who was capable .
He was going to be a father of two children .
The corners of his mouth unconsciously curled as he visualized a happy scene . He was really overjoyed… and ecstatic .
"Hello, Old Yan . I have a great piece of news for you . "
"Xuxu is carrying twins!"
"Certainly . How can the ultrasound scan results be wrong?"
"Take note of your blood pressure . I need to get going, we'll talk tonight . "
…
"Hello, is this President X? Have you approved my retirement request?"
"I'm anxious because my daughter-in-law is pregnant with twins . I need to take care of her . "
"Haha, thank you for the well-wishes . Same goes to you . "
…
"Hello…"
Madam Mu Li made several phone calls in the car . She was broadcasting the news that her daughter-in-law was pregnant with twins .
She was flaunting how blessed she was to have a daughter-in-law and future grandchildren . To put it plainly, she was boasting to everyone she knew .
Xuxu rested her head against the car window . She grinned with amusement as Mu Li made another call .
Mu Li had clearly promised her that Xuxu would have nothing to do with Third Yan . But when she introduced her to others, she kept mentioning that Xuxu was her daughter-in-law .
Mu Li wanted Xuxu to move back with her for a few days, but Xuxu rejected .
So, Mu Li sent Xuxu over to her grandfather's clinic . It had been some time since Xuxu went out, so she stayed at the clinic until it was already late at night .
Grandfather said, "Let Qi Lei send you home . "
Xuxu shook her head . "I can go home myself . It's just a short distance away . Besides, Qi Lei must be tired after a long day . "
