Your Highness, your wife doesn't want you anymore!

He had only been in the ward for five minutes, and this was already the third time he had asked the same question.

"Does it still hurt?"

Nan Zhi was idly scrolling through her phone, her head constantly leaning forward, blocking the screen from view. Frustrated, she reached out and pushed him away, saying, "No, it doesn't hurt."

Jin Si Nian was restless, unable to sit still for long. He felt uncomfortable as soon as he sat down, so he simply knelt down beside the bed and looked at her: "How much longer do we have to wait before we can go into the delivery room?"

"The nurse said that the cervix needs to be dilated to five centimeters before it can be opened."

He pressed on, his voice filled with anxiety, "Won't it start hurting again? Can I get another injection for the pain relief?"

Nan Zhi looked at him helplessly: "No matter how many injections you get, the effects won't build up, it's useless."

One plus one will not equal more than two!

"How about eating something to replenish your energy?"

"Need not."

Jin Si Nian frowned, stood up and was about to leave: "I'm going to find the doctor to ask how much longer it will take to give birth."

"Don't go, I already said I'll... wait until it's dilated to five centimeters."

The man lowered his head and remained silent for two seconds. He couldn't help but open his mouth to ask a question, but when he met Nan Zhi's cold glare, he immediately fell silent.

Unable to put his mind at ease, he quietly lifted the corner of the blanket and stared at her swollen belly, hoping that the baby would come out in the next second, but of course, nothing came out.

He gently placed his palm on his lower abdomen and whispered to the baby inside, "Little one, come out and meet us soon, okay? Don't bother Mommy for too long, Mommy will get tired and in pain. Be a good boy and come out by yourself."

Nan Zhi frowned and scolded, "Shut up!"

He immediately lowered his voice even further, repeatedly soothing the two babies in his belly.

Liu Xinlan and Aunt Qing, who were standing to the side, covered their mouths and secretly laughed as they watched his nervous and clumsy appearance.

With the cervix dilated to four centimeters and the aid of pain relief, Nan Zhi only experienced a slight, faint feeling of heaviness, which wasn't particularly unbearable.

With her cervix only dilated to four centimeters, Jin Si Nian's eyes reddened slightly again. Seeing her enduring the pain of contractions, his heart ached terribly.

Instead, Nan Zhi focused her attention on comforting him, deliberately changing the subject to distract him, and stammered, "Did you...did you tell Grandma?"

Kings nodded slightly, his fingertips gripping her sweaty hand tightly: "I made a phone call. When Grandma heard you were about to give birth, she immediately packed her things and left. She's on her way to the hospital now."

Nan Zhi looked helplessly at the man in front of her who would burst into tears at the slightest thing, and whispered to comfort him, "Actually, it doesn't hurt that much. I'm just enduring it with pain relief."

It wasn't as dramatic as Jin Nian's crying.

"Wife, you're lying." Jin Si Nian's nose tingled, and he looked aggrieved. "Before, when you had your period, you would snuggle in my arms and whine even if you were in a little pain. How could you not be in pain when giving birth?"

Nan Zhi, both amused and exasperated, corrected him: "Jin Si Nian, right now, right now, it's me giving birth."

In a moment of impulsiveness, he blurted out, "After you safely give birth to these two, we won't have any more children. I'll get my tubal ligation done."

Nan Zhi hurriedly covered his mouth with her hand, quickly reminding him, "What if... what if this pregnancy doesn't result in a daughter?"

"Haven't you always longed for a daughter?"

Jin Si Nian's eyes were red, but without the slightest hesitation, his tone was extremely firm: "I won't have any more children. Even if I don't have a daughter, I will never have any more."

At this moment, he put aside all his desire for a younger daughter; he only hoped that Nanzhi could suffer less and get through this ordeal safely.

When she finally dilated to five centimeters, the contractions came in clear waves, and the nurse immediately arranged to take her to the delivery room.

Jin Si Nian changed into sterile protective clothing early and stayed by the bedside without leaving for a moment. He held Nan Zhi's sweaty hand tightly and gave her confidence in a calm and gentle voice: "Zhi Zhi, don't be afraid, I'll always be with you."

The nurse patiently guided Nan Zhi to exert force, and Nan Zhi gripped Jin Si Nian's hand tightly. With a burst of strength, she felt a lump of feces come out.

The next second, the nurse announced the good news loudly: "It's a boy! The first one, a boy, a big brother."

The umbilical cord was cut swiftly, and the baby's clear cry echoed throughout the delivery room.

Jin Si Nian looked at the tiny infant in the swaddling clothes, his hands trembling uncontrollably. He was wiping the cold sweat from Nan Zhi's forehead with a tissue when he caught a glimpse of the long umbilical cord being pulled. His face instantly turned pale, and he shouted in panic, "Nurse! Why did you pull my wife's intestines out?"

Nan Zhi, whose body was already aching, couldn't help but laugh out loud when she heard this. As she laughed, she subconsciously exerted force, and a second loud cry followed immediately.

Congratulations to the family! Twins, both boys!

As soon as he finished speaking, Jin Si Nian's vision went black, and he fell straight to the side, fainting on the spot.

Nan Zhi stared wide-eyed, stunned, on the delivery bed.

The nurse hurriedly shouted outside, "Someone has fainted!"

Medical staff rushed in from outside and asked, "She fainted. Did the mother collapse from exhaustion?"

"The family member who was accompanying the mother during childbirth fainted!"

……

VIP ward

Jin Si Nian stayed by the bedside without leaving for a moment, his eyes still showing the lingering weariness from when he fainted in the delivery room.

Madam Jin had arrived long ago, holding her newborn eldest son steadily in her arms, gently stroking the baby's soft little face with her fingertips, her eyebrows and eyes curving into a smile.

Liu Xinlan held her little brother in her arms, her eyes filled with undisguised affection. She leaned close to Nan Zhi and compared them closely: "Look at this little guy, he's exactly like you when you were a child."

Nan Zhi glanced at him, and Jin Si Nian also looked at him with a cold face: "Why don't they both look like Zhi Zhi?"

It's best to have three young children in the family.

She then turned to Jin Si Nian, holding the little one, and smiled as she handed him over: "Here, you hold the little one."

Jin Si Nian pursed his lips, his expression indifferent, and awkwardly turned his head away to refuse: "No, I won't carry you. How can a little man like you let others carry him?"

Nan Zhi saw through his little scheme at a glance. He clearly hadn't gotten his wish that the little girl would throw a tantrum, so she gently reminded him, "You, you said before that you wouldn't favor the children."

Jin Nian stubbornly retorted, "How could I be biased? My whole heart is with you."

Although he said that, his hands honestly reached out and stiffly and clumsily held the swaddled baby.

The touch of her fingertips on the baby's soft, warm skin instantly eased the tightness in her chest. Looking down at the little one's delicate features, she unconsciously smiled and said, "He does look more like Zhizhi, and he's good-looking."

Grandma Jin was overjoyed, slapping her thigh with delight: "Twin boys in one birth! My granddaughter-in-law is truly remarkable!"

She reached into her elegant handbag, took out a black card, and shoved it into Nan Zhi's palm without a word: "It was a promise we made long ago, one hundred million for each child I have. Here's a full two hundred million, keep it and spend it however you like."

Nan Zhi repeatedly declined, but the old man was adamant and insisted on placing the bank card in her hand.

Then the old lady took out two heavy pure gold peace locks and hung them around the necks of the two babies. She patted the swaddling clothes with her fingertips again and again, and became more and more happy and satisfied with Nan Zhi, who had added a son to the Jin family.

After settling the child in, Madam Jin took out a translucent jadeite bracelet worth tens of millions of yuan and gently slipped it onto Nan Zhi's slender wrist, her eyes filled with genuine tenderness: "You've worked hard."

Jin Si Nian also shared the good news on his WeChat Moments: his two sons weighed a total of seven and a half pounds!
