This was the first time that Li Qingcang was looking at this child, who was only the size of a rice grain. An inexplicable feeling of joy flashed across his heart.

Their kid was still so tiny.

“Yeah. He may be tiny now, but he’ll slowly grow inside of me.”

Ye Tianxin’s expression was as sweet as maple syrup. It was so sweet that it soothed Li Qingcang’s tense and nervous heart into a more pleasant feeling.

He may have gone through a traumatic experience just a while ago, but that didn’t matter. As long as he could still see her smile, he felt that the world was beautiful.

“Tianxin, let the nurse dress the wound on your arm. I have some things that I’d like to ask Qingcang about.”

“Okay.”

Ye Tianxin thought that Ye Linlang would ask Li Qingcang why she got hurt, so she wasn’t concerned about it.

Ye Linlang had an office in the hospital. Li Qingcang, Ye Linlang, and Qie Wenyang went there together.

Ye Linlang gave Li Qingcang another ultrasound image that she was holding and said, “Qingcang, I want you to take a look at this.”

Li Qingcang didn’t have a background in medicine. To Li Qingcang, this ultrasound image was no different from the one that Ye Linlang showed Ye Tianxin before.

“Mom, what does this mean? I don’t get it.”

Ye Linlang pointed at the two little black dots on the ultrasound image and said, “These two dots mean that Ye Tianxin is pregnant with twins.”

“What?” Li Qingcang acted as though he didn’t hear what Ye Linlang said.

Twins?

Is… is that even possible?

It didn’t seem right. He was only joking about it with Tianxin earlier. He didn’t mean it.

How did his casual remark become a reality?

Ye Linglang sternly said again, “I said that Ye Tianxin is pregnant with twins.”

Her daughter was pregnant with twins.

This meant that Ye Tianxin had to endure twice the suffering for her pregnancy.

Some people think that being pregnant with twins would save a lot of trouble, but that wasn’t true at all…

Ye Linlang thought that being pregnant with twins was an exceptionally tiring thing for a woman.

In layman’s terms, the fetus needed to absorb nutrients from the body of the mother to develop while inside the womb. If one fetus would require one portion of nutrients, two would require twice as many nutrients.

That was why some people say that giving birth to a child was extremely damaging to the vitality of the mother.

“Then, what do we do?”

Li Qingcang didn’t know what to do.

He was intelligent enough to immediately understand why Ye Linlang only showed Ye Tianxin one of the ultrasound images.

If it ever got to that point…

“Ye Tianxin’s health condition isn’t good. It would be challenging for her to even be pregnant with one baby. If she had to raise two of them…”

Ye Linlang looked disconcerted and worried.

Her daughter being pregnant with twins was supposed to be an immensely joyous occasion for her.

She should be happy about it, but that was impossible with Ye Tianxin’s health condition.

“Mom, do you want me to persuade Tianxin?”

When Li Qingcang said that, his tone was extremely slow and heavy.

He liked kids, but he loved Tianxin even more.

Even then, there was no way that he could tell Tianxin not to have kids right now. They were still young, so they can just have kids five years from now.

He couldn’t bring himself to say something like that.

He knew how much Tianxin looked forward to having the baby.

How could he say something so cruel?
