Su Jianâan had met Lu Boyan when she was 10 years old.
Lu Boyan and Tang Yulan lived in her grandmotherâs old house back then.
Generally, what happened more than a decade ago would be forgotten unless it had left a deep impression on people.
However, the old days when she had stayed with Lu Boyan were still vivid in Su Jianâanâs mind, as if every minute with him had been engraved on her mind.
The name of her grandmotherâs old house was also fresh in her memory.
It was called the West Window.
Neither did she know why her grandmother had named the house the âwest windowâ, nor she have the chance to ask her mother about it.
However, Lu Boyan had met her in that house. It was the beginning of their love story.
Therefore, a baby named Lu Xiyu (Xi meant âwestâ while yu meant âmeetâ), who was created from their love, finally came into the world.
Su Jianâan looked up into Lu Boyanâs eyes, beaming at him.
She wanted to tell Lu Boyan that she knew why he had named the baby boy Xiyu.
Tang Yulan found that Su Jianâan was happy about the babiesâ names, so she asked, âItâs settled, right?â
âYeah!â Su Jianâan nodded in approval. âTheyâre nice names. Itâs settled then!â
Everyone in the room was happy. At that moment, a nurse knocked on the door and entered the room. She looked embarrassed as she said, âMr. Lu, you may have to go outside to deal with something.â
Lu Boyan frowned. âThe press?â
âYes!â The nurse nodded in horror. âAlmost all the mainstream media and non-traditional outlets have come and crowded the lobby of the outpatient department. We donât dare to tell them anything. Could you please deal with what is going on there?â
Su Yicheng thought that Lu Boyan would call Shen Yuechuan and ask him to deal with the media.
Because Lu Boyan disliked talking in front of the mediaâeven the media knew that.
Unexpectedly, without even thinking about it, Lu Boyan turned to Su Jianâan and said, âWait for me for a moment. Iâll be back soon.â
âMm,â Su Jianâan replied in surprise and watched Lu Boyan leave with the nurse.
Su Yicheng smiled. âBoyan has changed.â
âItâs normal.â Su Jianâan compressed her lips. âHeâs already a father of two kids.â
Tang Yulan asked, âYicheng, are you planning to be a father too?â
Su Yicheng glanced at Luo Xiaoxi and answered ambiguously, âIâm ready.â
âAhem.â Luo Xiaoxi simply took a sip of water as if she hadnât heard anything.
At that moment, Lu Boyan reached the lobby of the outpatient department.
It really surprised the reporters that Lu Boyan showed up for the interview about his private life.
It meant that being a father was of great significance to Lu Boyan.
A group of reporters pounced on Lu Boyan. If it were not for the security guards surrounding him hand in hand and his height advantage, he would have been blocked beneath various microphones.
âMr. Lu, we learned that youâve become a father, right?â
Lu Boyan smiled and said without hesitation, âYes.â
Lu Boyan always had a frosty look when facing the shareholders of his company, not to mention the press. Therefore, it had been circulated among the reporters that Lu Boyan only smiled for Su Jianâan.
Being reporters wasnât a career in vain because they saw Lu Boyan smile to them just now.
The reporters became much more relaxed. âMr. Lu, could you please tell us whether your baby is a boy or a girl?â
Lu Boyan said, âDoesnât matter, itâs all the same to me.â
His words incited curiosity among the reporters. âThen, is it a boy or a girl?â
Lu Boyan thought for a moment and gave a brighter smile. âA boy and a girl.â
A boy and a girl. He meant that Su Jianâan had given birth to a pigeon pair!
A buzz of excitement ran amongst the reporters. They congratulated Lu Boyan immediately.
Finally, a reporter asked, âMr. Lu, may I have the photos of the two babies? You and Mrs. Lu are both amazing. Weâre very curious about how your kids look like.â
âIâm sorry.â Lu Boyan said, âFor their safety, I will not publicize their photos until theyâre able to protect themselves.â
The reporters were disappointed. However, it was within their expectations that he would disappoint them.
After a few more questions, Lu Boyan checked the time and returned to the suite.
Shen Yuechuan and Xiao Yunyun were on their way to the hospital.
Shen Yuechuan was working overtime in the company when he received a call from his assistant. He was told that Su Jianâan had been taken to the operating room. However, he wasnât worried at all. He left for the hospital after finishing his work.
He wondered, âDo the twins look more like Lu Boyan or Su Jianâan?â
When he reached the hospital, he saw that the reporters were gathering for red packets.
Shen Yuechuan had dealt with the media on behalf of Lu Boyan for many years, so he was familiar with the reporters. They greeted him, and he waved at them as he asked, âWhat did you get?â
âBoss Lu told us all that we want to know. The pity is that he didnât give us the babiesâ photos.â A reporter said, âIt will take the Internet by storm once the photos are published.â
âThe photos?â Shen Yuechuan thought for half a second. âPerish the thought. Itâs useless. By the way, what did Boss Lu say just now?â
A reporter thought for a while and repeated what Lu Boyan had said. âBoss Lu told us that he will never make public the kidsâ photos until theyâre able to protect themselves.â
âOh, do you know Boss Luâs hidden meaning? Even if you get photos of the two babies in the future, you canât make them public either.â
Shen Yuechuan explained to the reporters with a smile.
Then it dawned on them, and several reporters sighed with disappointment.
âBut I can tell you something else!â Shen Yuechuan said with a mysterious tone. After a while, he said, âWhen Jianâan waited for parturition at home, she donated a lot of money to support elementary education in the remote areas. You may dig into it. The report about this and Boss Lu becoming a father will also make headlines.â
Lu Boyan and Su Jianâan had never made their private life public. It would take the media a long time and energy even if they could find some big news. Realizing that Shen Yuechuan knew a lot about the whole story, the reporters immediately surrounded him. They also began to flatter him,
âSpecial Assistant Shen, you look sharp today! Iâve never seen a man that has such wonderful taste in clothing as you!â
âSpecial Assistant Shen, youâre a handsome man with taste!â
Shen Yuechuan knew well about the reportersâ tricks. He waved his hand and said, âGive up on me. I wonât tell you anything more.â With that said, he took a red packet from Uncle Qian and opened it. There was a small stack of one-hundred-yuan bills that was enough for a person to enjoy a big meal at a five-star hotel.
He patted Uncle Qian on the shoulder. âUncle, thank you.â
Uncle Qian was there to give all the reporters and photographers present a red packet according to Tang Yulanâs order. Shen Yuechuan wasnât on the list at all.
However, Uncle Qian could only wave his hand helplessly. âGo and see the babies.â
Shen Yuechuan put the red packet into his pocket and left the outpatient department. He ran into Xiao Yunyun who was walking toward the OB/GYN building.
Xiao Yunyun had received the news when she was still at work. However, she was too busy to ask for leave, so she held back her excitement. She hastened to the hospital as soon as she got off work.
Xiao Yunyun wasnât surprised to see Shen Yuechuan. She even joked, âJust now I heard a lot of reporters flattering you. Did you threaten them?â
Shen Yuechuan laughed. âThey were just telling the truth. Why did you say that?â
â...â Xiao Yunyun rolled her eyes and looked up at the sky as if she hadnât heard anything.
The two reached the OB/GYN soon. Somehow, they felt that the whole building, especially Su Jianâanâs suite, was full of joy.
The two little babies were lying next to each other by Su Jianâanâs side while the others kept teasing them by the bed.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Xiao Yunyun walked over. Her eyes lit up as soon as she saw the babies. âTheyâre so cute!â
The two infants were good-looking with delicate facial features. The rosy lips under their tiny noses looked so tender that everyone wanted to kiss them.
Luo Xiaoxi smiled. âTheir parents both look gorgeous. Itâs hard for them not to be beautiful.â
âYou said it.â Xiao Yunyun gazed at the two babies and suddenly asked, âBy the way, whoâs the older baby?â
âWho do you think is the older one?â Luo Xiaoxi said with a mysterious tone, âJianâan guessed it by telepathy. You may have a try too.â
Xiao Yunyun chuckled as she looked closer at the babies. âI can do that without telepathy.â
Both Luo Xiaoxi and Shen Yuechuan were confused. âHow?â
Xiao Yunyun pointed at the towels on the infants. âThe baby boy is in a light blue towel, and the baby girl is in a pink one. My cousin must have guessed it in the same way.â
Luo Xiaoxi felt awkward. She looked at Su Jianâan and asked, âIs that so?â
âYes.â Su Jianâan smiled. âDid you think it was really because of telepathy?â
Although Luo Xiaoxi had said it before, she still repeated the sentence to Su Jianâan, âItâs said that a woman will be stupid for three years after she gives birth. But thatâs not you.â Then she said to Lu Boyan, âYou have suffered a lot.â
She thought that Lu Boyan must have had a hard time since his wife was too smart to be cheated!
Lu Boyan raised his eyebrow and said calmly, âThatâs not true. I would be suffering if I got a stupid wife.â
â...â Luo Xiaoxi pondered for a while and found that she had never heard others express their love for their wives like that. She felt that Lu Boyan was doing great.
Xiao Yunyunâs eyes were glued to the two babies. The more she looked at them, the more she loved them. She touched their little faces and asked, âWhat are their names?â
âXiangyi and Xiyu,â Lu Boyan said in a gentle voice and felt his heart soften as if two lovable hands were petting his heart.
It was beyond expression.
Xiao Yunyun blurted out with a smile, âNice names! If I have a baby in the future, Iâll also name the baby like that!â
