"Gurgle~"

"Gurgle~"

Lin Zhengtai stared at the image of Yuanyuan rolling over on his phone and rubbed his eyes in disbelief.

"What was that?"

"Hongzhi, did you see Yuanyuan roll over just now?"

"Dad, you just scolded the two of us and sent us away. Did you forget?"

Lin Hongzhi wore a wry smile. He had wanted to see his grandson and granddaughter too, only for his father to chase him away for blocking the light.

After listening to his son's complaint, Lin Zhengtai curled his lips. "You two were blocking the sunlight."

On the other end of the call, Lin Yi secretly laughed at the sight of his father being put in his place. It seemed no one mattered in front of his great-grandchildren. Now Lin Yi finally felt a little better.

Seeing how much Lin Zhengtai adored the little ones, Lin Yi said, "Grandpa, your eyes weren't playing tricks on you."

"Yuanyuan really can roll over now."

"Tangtang can too."

"I knew I wasn't seeing things. Tangtang and Yuanyuan are amazing."

Lin Zhengtai beamed with pride, happier than if he had earned hundreds of millions more. Seeing how adorable the two little ones were, he thought for a moment and said, "If you and Wanqing don't have classes, come stay in the Imperial Capital for a few days."

"Your mom and dad both miss you."

"Mm-hmm, okay."

Lin Yi readily agreed. He knew Grandpa wanted to hold the little ones and had only brought up Lin Hongzhi and Jiang Yuehua as an excuse.

Seeing Lin Zhengtai refuse to admit it, Lin Yi didn't expose him.

Jiang Yuehua and Lin Hongzhi, on the other hand, didn't know whether to laugh or cry. The old man was a master at passing the buck.

After chatting a while longer, Lin Zhengtai reluctantly hung up. He was already looking forward to his great-grandchildren's arrival.

"You two must be full, so hurry on back."

"I'm going back to my room."

Lin Zhengtai spoke as he handed the phone to Jiang Yuehua.

They had called Lin Yi after taking only a few bites of dinner. Wasn't this tearing down the bridge after crossing the river?

Since they had been told to leave, they left.

As they were leaving, Jiang Yuehua noticed that Lin Zhengtai seemed a little sad. Frowning deeply, she said, "Dad probably wants to talk to Mom."

"Mm. Xiao Yi has children now, and he wants to share the news with Mom."

Back in his room, Lin Zhengtai picked up the black-and-white photo frame on the table and wiped it. "Old woman, I saw our granddaughter-in-law today."

"She's a lovely young girl, and she and our grandson make a perfect match."

"And they have children already-a pigeon pair."

"The two little ones are soft and cuddly, and so lovable."

"When they come, I'll introduce them to you."

"..."

Yihai Villa.

After hanging up and seeing how much Lin Zhengtai liked Tangtang and Yuanyuan, Lin Yi discussed it with Su Wanqing. "Honey, how about we go to the Imperial Capital in the next couple of days, then visit your family?"

"Sure, it's on the way."

"What do Uncle, Auntie, Grandpa, and the others like? Let's get some gifts ready."

"I think you, Tangtang, and Yuanyuan are the best gifts."

Lin Yi wasn't joking. He meant it. His parents and grandfather truly adored Su Wanqing and the babies.

Although Su Wanqing thought her husband had a point, she flatly refused to go empty-handed.

"Honey, back in Fengtian, where we're from, it's a loss of face to visit relatives without bringing gifts."

"All right, all right. We'll get everything ready in the next couple of days."

Seeing that Su Wanqing had even slipped into her hometown dialect while refusing, Lin Yi quickly agreed. He had to admit, the Fengtian dialect was infectious.

Lin Yi had grown up in the Imperial Capital and knew a little of the dialect from Northeast China. He immediately said indulgently, "Then where're we gonna go to buy gifts?"

Hearing Lin Yi's question, Su Wanqing realized she had accidentally slipped into her hometown dialect. Seeing him imitate her, she said coquettishly, "Honey, you're not allowed to copy me."

"All righty, I won't say it no more."

"You're terrible. Why're you still saying it~"

"..."

On the bed, Tangtang and Yuanyuan grew embarrassed as they watched Lin Yi and Su Wanqing flirt.

Yuanyuan waved his chubby little arms with all his might, his little hands fair and soft, as though that would keep him from seeing Mommy and Daddy.

Unfortunately, his arms were a little too short, and he couldn't cover his eyes at all.

Tangtang, meanwhile, didn't cover her eyes. The little one pressed both hands over her ears, as though that would keep her from hearing anything.

After flirting for quite a while, Lin Yi finally noticed the two little ones' strange behavior.

"Hey, honey, look. What are Yuanyuan and Tangtang doing?"

"Could Yuanyuan be playing hide-and-seek?"

Su Wanqing shook her head. She didn't think so, but she couldn't explain the little one's behavior either.

Tangtang, however, she understood. The little one seemed not to want to hear something.

Thinking back on what the two of them had just been doing, Su Wanqing covered her face in embarrassment and said bashfully, "Do the babies think we're flirting?"

Lin Yi smiled when he heard that. He was very pleased that the two little ones knew what to do. "Looks like our daughter and son have known what's unsuitable for children since they were little."

"Pah! Nonsense. What part of that was unsuitable for children?"

"Hmph! It's all because you copied the way I talk~"

Su Wanqing rolled her eyes crossly. If it weren't for Lin Yi, the two little ones wouldn't have been so put off by them.

Little did she know, Tangtang and Yuanyuan hadn't been acting that way because they were put off. They were afraid that, as little light bulbs, they were shining too brightly and getting in the way of Mommy and Daddy making them little brothers and sisters~

Tangtang and Yuanyuan: Oh, how we worry ourselves sick!!!
