729: Cancel the Wedding?

Cancel the Wedding?

Jin Liwei's only response was a grunt. There was a part of him that wanted to argue against his baby girl's insistence that he was always rough in bed. What did she mean by that? It wasn't "always" but "most of the time". There was a difference.1

It seemed that she was already forgetting that he had been quite gentle with her during their recent bouts of morning sex because he didn't want to exhaust her too much especially since she had such a busy schedule lately. Also, ever since his condom tore during their wild sex in his office, he had been extra careful with her not only in bed but also in their regular daily lives because of the possibility that he might have already impregnated her that time. 

And he was right. She indeed became pregnant. 

But if he argued with her right now using these points, she would probably just bring up what happened this morning when she woke him up inside her mouth. The scene of how rough he had her deep-throat him this morning in bed was still vivid in his mind.

There was no way in hell that he would give her the opportunity to discuss such private details of their sex life in front of his second brother even if Wang Yingjie was a trusted doctor and an extremely professional one at that. 

If it was only general details that would help in necessary medical evaluations, then fine. That was acceptable. It was in the name of good health, after all. But telling his second brother about deep-throating and other explicit information about their bedroom activities was just too much!

Jin Liwei couldn't stomach divulging such details but he knew that his baby girl would have no problems with it whatsoever. If she really wanted to talk about their sex life so much, then they could discuss it all she wanted but only if they were alone. For him, it was their business and no one else's.

"Xiulan, please. That's enough," he said in a strained voice. Then he released a heavy sigh and began massaging his temples in exhaustion.

Iris finally shut her mouth upon seeing him like this. Worry was etched in her brows. [This novel is a contracted work with W e b n o v e l . c o m (remove spaces).

Now that his baby girl stopped talking about their sex life, Jin Liwei felt relieved. Good. The conversation finally seemed to be over. 

Or so he thought.

Wang Yingjie, still wearing his neutral doctor expression, just had to say, "I almost forgot to mention that since Third Brother is currently injured, absolutely no sex is allowed until he heals first. This way, you can be assured that both of you will be safe from accidentally harming yourselves while in the throes of passion."

The couple froze.

Iris looked crestfallen. Jin Liwei's expression wasn't any better.

"Will I heal in time for our wedding and honeymoon?"

"Possibly, but only if you focus on healing," Wang Yingjie said.

Iris butted in. "Okay, that's it. You're taking time off from work, Liwei. Either you focus on healing or we'll cancel the wedding."

"No!" Jin Liwei glared at her. "Cancel the wedding? Absolutely not!"

"Not cancel. Just reschedule it, maybe next year."

"No. We're not cancelling or rescheduling it. We'll have our wedding on the day we planned it and that's final."

She pursed her lips at him. "It's not only up to you. Both of us need to agree. And I say that you need to heal from your injuries first. If not, then no wedding this year."

"Xiulan," he growled. "My babies are not going to be born out of wedlock."

Her face twisted in anger. She was about to call him out for being too old-fashioned when she remembered that she had an older brother who was much worse. So she closed her mouth and swallowed the words she was about to say.

Seeing her restraining herself, Jin Liwei's face and tone gentled. "Love, I want to give you a special and memorable wedding day, that's why we're having the ceremony and not just going to the Civil Affairs Bureau. I don't want to delay our wedding any longer, especially right now that you're pregnant. It is best for us to marry before we welcome our twins to this world. Don't you think so, too?"

She sighed, unable to deny him when he was so eager for them to marry. However, she still offered a compromise. "Fine, we'll marry this year. But let's keep our wedding date flexible. I'm sure that you'll heal before the year ends, right? We can marry, then. There's no need to marry on the exact date we planned. We can delay it for a few days, even a few weeks, as long as it's this year. Happy?"

"En. Sounds good," he told her but inside, he thought, 'I don't want to delay it even for a few days. I'll make sure to heal in time for our original wedding date.'

"I hate to interrupt again when you're having such a serious discussion but we need to finish up soon," the forgotten Wang Yingjie said. "Both of you need to rest. Xiulan, you're pregnant now. Remember that it's no longer just yourself you need to take care of but also the babies inside you. Third Brother, you need to focus on healing if you want to have your wedding as scheduled. And as for me, I honestly need to sleep soon. I have to wake up early because I have another big surgery scheduled tomorrow morning."

Soon after, they bid goodbye to each other. Iris and Jin Liwei left the hospital through a secret entrance. They rode in the car's backseat while Dom sat in the front beside the driver. Jin Liwei had someone send Xu Tian home earlier. He instructed his assistant to rest and granted him a temporary leave from work (paid, of course).

Inside the car, Iris showed Dom the printed ultrasound photos. Her fear of becoming a mother was drowned by excitement.

"Look. These are my babies! I'm going to have twins, Dom. Can you believe it?"
