Birth of the Devilish CEO: So what if i'm a Lady?

Chapter 235: Baby news (did you just say triplets?)

"We will see about that, but before anything else, let's go and get some yummy food," Yi Lan said as he quickly made a detour. The couple left the restaurant after eating to their fill. Anyways, it was Lie Ruge that did most of the eating, not Yi Lan. They went back to their hotel room to keep all the things they had purchased but they came out again ten minutes later after haven't dropped everything in the room.

"I like walking hand in hand with you like this. It feels so good," Yi Lan said smiling at her.

"I love enjoying the starry night with you too. It's calm and refreshing. Hubby I have been meaning to discuss something about the baby with you, but I'm not sure whether you are gonna like my suggestion," Lie Ruge said hesitatingly. Yi Lan stopped walking and paid full attention to what she was going to say.

"Is it something unpleasant? Even if it is, you don't have to worry. I will agree to it since I know that you will never do anything that will harm our baby girl so you can go ahead and ask me the question you want to ask," Yi Lan said seriously.

"Lanlan, as we both know this is the tenth week of my pregnancy and the doctor told us that we should conduct another ultrasound scan for the baby in my tenth week to ascertain the number of babies I'm carrying. So I was thinking maybe we should do the ultrasound scan tomorrow before we leave for Maldives Island. I'm just saying this because I heard that Paris has the best medical equipment and experts but it is okay if you don't want to do it," Lie Ruge said meekly.

"Why are you sounding so timid? You are so unlike my bold and confident wife. Of course I love your idea. I was planning to suggest the same thing to you but I can't believe you beat me to it," Yi Lan said smiling as he stroked her hair playfully.

"Of course I am your bold and confident wife. Have you ever seen a lady as bold and confident as me when it comes to saying what is on her mind? I bet you haven't right?" Lie Ruge asked jokingly as she quickly turned around and trapped Yi Lan by holding him firmly at his waist.

"No, I haven't seen a lady as brazen and fearless as you in my entire life. You are just as shameless as your husband," Yi Lan said before he quickly captured her lips on the busy road. They did not feel an ounce of shame as people started staring at them. Some people even clapped for them as they passed by, while others stood to watch their heated kiss.

"You can't blame me for that because you are the one who taught me how to be shameless," Lie Ruge said teasingly after they stopped kissing. The couple went back to their hotel room after enjoying the beautiful night scenery to their hearts' satisfaction. They showered and got dressed before they stood at the window staring at the glittering Eiffel Tower. Staring at Eiffel Tower felt as if this was the first night they arrived there. It didn't feel as though they had spent four eventful and memorable days at this wonderful city. They went to bed after realizing that it was very late into the night. The next morning in the hospital room, Lie Ruge was lying down on the hospital bed while Yi Lan stood beside her holding her left hand.

"Wow! Congratulations sir!  Your wife is carrying triplets," the doctor exclaimed happily.

"What? Triplets?" Yi Lan and Lie Ruge asked in shock.

"Did you just say triplets? Are you sure of this?" Lie Ruge asked, still in shock.

"Yes, I am. I will give you and your husband a picture of it. I bet this is such surprising news for the both of you," the doctor replied firmly.

"This is great. I can't believe this. We are going to have three pretty little girls," Yi Lan said happily as his eyes shone in excitement.

"Why are you so sure that they are girls? I'm sure they are boys," Lie Ruge said as she sat up properly since the scanning was over.

"I am sure they are girls, not boys," Yi Lan said unfazed.

"Madam, sir, instead of arguing about the gender of your babies... why don't we do the test to determine the gender of your babies while you are here?" The doctor asked politely. Lie Ruge did some thinking about the doctor's suggestions before she decided to answer.

"Your suggestion is nice but it will be very boring if we found out the gender of our babies. I want it to come as a surprise to everyone on my delivery day. That will be more interesting since everyone will try to guess the gender of our babies," Lie Ruge said with a mischievous smile on her face.

"Yeah, I agree with you. It will be more interesting and fun," Yi Lan said smiling excitedly.

"Ok, then. I'm sorry to say this but you guys look so good together. Your opinions don't crash like other couples I have seen. You are perfect for each other," the doctor said smiling at them brightly.

"I guess you are right," Lie Ruge said as she caressed Yi Lan's hands. After settling everything at the hospital, they boarded their flight to Maldives Island. That is where the newlyweds spent another four days. Everyone was so upset when Yi Lan and Lie Ruge did not come back home the day everyone expected them to. They were supposed to spend a week on their honeymoon but they ended up spending an extra day there.

"Mum, Dad," Lie Ruge shouted happily when she saw her mother-in-law and father-in-law who were waiting for them inside their Mansion. She had called everyone on their way back from the airport to announce their arrival but she did not know that her mother and father-in-law would arrive that early.

"Oh my gosh look at who we have here! Ge'er!" Madam Yi exclaimed delightedly as she quickly stood up to hug her.

"Son, how was your trip? I hope both of you had so much fun?" Elder Yi asked as he also stood up to hug Yi Lan.

"Mum, dad it is so nice to see you two once again. I have missed you and dad so very much," Lie Ruge said smiling as she continued to embrace her mother-in-law.

"We missed you two so much too. I was so unhappy when you did not come back yesterday as planned but now I am very happy that the both of you are here," Madam Yi said as she left Lie Ruge and hugged her son. Everyone settled down and since Madam Yi had already brought food for them the maids only had to set the dining table. They ate and chatted happily like one happy family.

"Wow! Third bro, sister-in-law, you are back. This is fabulous," Tan Fan shouted excitedly as he ran towards Yi Lan and Lie Ruge, who were now sitting down resting after their parents left.

"Ge'er I'm so glad that you guys are back. How was your honeymoon trip? I hope you guys had a lot of fun and how is the baby, Ge'er? I hope you didn't do anything to harm the poor little bun?" Xiao Bai bombarded Lie Ruge with questions.

"What is the rush with all the questions? Calm down everyone! You are giving me a headache with all your questions," Lie Ruge replied playfully.

"I am sure Bai Bai cannot wait anymore. She was so shocked when she learnt from mum and dad that you were pregnant that is why she is so excited. You can't blame my sweetheart for being so excited right?" Yun Yi said defensively as he pulled Xiao Bai closer to himself.

"How was Paris, you guys? Where are the photos you guys took? I still can't believe that Sister Ge'er is going to be a proud mother very soon," Jiang Xue said elatedly.

"Our trip was fun and the pictures we took are over there on the table. But one more thing guys I have some news for you," Lie Ruge said smiling at them brightly.

"What news? Are you guys travelling again or are you both planning to throw a celebratory party for your return," Jiang Xue asked, beating Xiao Bai to ask the question first.

"The truth is I am not only pregnant but Yi Lan and I learnt that I am carrying triplets. Isn't that amazing?" Lie Ruge asked excitedly as she rubbed her tummy happily.

"You are kidding right?" Tan Fan asked in shock.

"You're lying right? I bet sister Ge'er wants to prank us," Jiang Xue said in disbelief.

"Why are you guys acting so weird? Of course, she is saying the truth. Besides, why should she prank all of you? You guys are just so dramatic," Yi Lan replied coldly.

"It's normal for us to be shocked Third bro, besides, were you not surprised when you learnt that Sister-in-law was pregnant with triplets? So it is normal that we are shocked too. So don't take our reaction the wrong way," Yun Yi said.

"We are just happy so happy for the both of you," Xiao Bai said happily. The atmosphere was so lively as they all chatted and played together. The way they interacted and behaved was as if they haven't seen each other for a long time.
