Chapter 373 – Thank you for forgiving Daddy (3)

Placing her hand over her stomach, she said, “You are making me worry what kind of a father you will be after these two are born.”

“Two?”

Ye Zhen placed his hand on her stomach and leaned into his ear. She whispered into his ear softly, “The doctor said I am carrying twins.”

His big and wide palm covered the flat stomach. Two lives laid inside there.

He had mixed feelings. All of a sudden, it was as though something had exploded in his head. He was drawing blank.

“Twins?”

“Yes. The doctor had triple checked before they told me. Mr. Lu, you carry a lot of responsibilities. You have three children to raise. You are going to need to work extra hard to support them. Naturally, I will work hard and not drag you down. Nevertheless, I think, starting now, you need to start figuring out how to be a good father and how to bond with your children. Otherwise… Oh!” She loudly cried out when her feet were off the ground. Throwing her arms around Lu Beichuan’s neck, the abrupt princess carry made Ye Zhen pound him hard on his arm. “What do you think you are doing? Let me tell you, the doctor had also said that the first few months into the pregnancy is the most vulnerable time.”

“I know.” Lu Beichuan put her down on the couch and placed his hand over her stomach. Looking at those eyes who were looking at him brightly, he leaned down and kissed her.

He knew he shouldn’t touch her, but he couldn’t help but want to hug her, kiss her, and to let her know how happy he was at this very moment, and to tell her how much he loves her. He only wished that he could show her his heart.

“Ye Zhen… Ye Zhen…” Lu Beichuan mumbled her name and made her a serious promise. “Don’t worry. I will never let what happened today happen ever again. I promise.”

Ye Zhen smiled and wrapped her arms around his neck. She planted her burning lips onto his without a shred of doubt. “I trust you.”

The door to the study opened up abruptly and Zhouzhou’s choked back voice rang by the door, “I’m sorry, Daddy, about what happened today……”

Zhouzhou, encouraged by his grandmother, came back to Lu Beichuan, wanting to apologize once again for his behavior today. As soon as he walked inside, he saw Mommy sitting on the couch and Daddy’s long face.

The lingering emotion stopped, and Ye Zhen pushed him away while staring at him angrily. Lu Beichuan sighed and looked over at the door. “Didn’t I teach you to knock before you come inside?”

Zhouzhou, who was rubbing his teary eyes, stopped in his motion. Looking up at Lu Beichuan, he pouted and finally gave in to his feeling of being wronged and started to bawl. “WAH! WUWUWUWU, Grandma. Daddy is so mean!”

“Lu Beichuan, what is wrong with you? It’s not just once or twice with you now. Zhouzhou is still young. Can’t you just reason with him nicely? What kind of a father are you?” Ye Zhen kicked Lu Beichuan.

Lu Beichuan sighed and waved at Zhouzhou.

Zhouzhou buried his head in his grandmother’s arms and refused to go over. Lu Beichuan sighed to himself again, walked over, and squatted down in front of Zhouzhou.

“Hasn’t Daddy taught you in the past that it is polite to knock before you walk inside a room?”

Zhouzhou, sniffling, said, “Yes… I am sorry, Daddy. I should have knocked.”

“Alright. Daddy will forgive you this time, but you must remember to knock next time before you go inside a room, even if you are home, okay? That’s basic courtesy.”

“Okay, I will keep that in mind…” Looking at Lu Beichuan with tears in his eyes, he finally gathered up enough courage and said, “And, about what happened today, Daddy… Don’t be upset at Zhouzhou. Zhouzhou knows that he is wrong now. I shouldn’t have…”

Zhouzhou had already apologized a few times today but had never gotten a response from Lu Beichuan. He worried that his daddy would not forgive him.

Lu Beichuan reached his hand out and wiped away his tears. “Daddy isn’t mad at you about what happened today, and it was not your fault. It was Daddy who failed to keep an eye out on you. Can you forgive Daddy’s carelessness?”

“Huh?” Zhouzhou’s eyes widened and he didn’t know how to react to that one.

It wasn’t his fault? How come Daddy apologized to him?

“Zhouzhou is a man, right? And he should be forgiving. What are you going to say to Daddy when he apologizes to you?”

Zhouzhou cocked his head and gave it some thought. “It’s alright?”

Lu Beichuan smiled and rubbed his fuzzy little head. “Thank you for forgiving Daddy.”
