"Baby Shang, you're awake!"
Hui Yin paused, and Little Wuji gasped as he tried to catch his breath.
Ignoring the complex look his twin brother was giving him, Little Wuji took advantage of Hui Yin's momentary distraction to scamper out of the bed and flee into the kitchen like a frightened rabbit.
Hui Yin smiled as she saw this. The twins acted too much like mini-adults that she felt it was a bit lamentable. Although they were too clever for their own age, young children like them should behave like how other young kids do. Growing up was something that should be left to the future.
"Baby Shang, let's eat breakfast."
After saying that, Hui Yin lifted Baby Shang up and carried him in her arms.
He weighed much lighter than she imagined, and Hui Yin started planning on stuffing the two of them with breakfast until the two little buns evaded the fate of becoming two little dumplings.
"Wifey, down." Baby Shang felt embarrassed deep inside his heart.
Wifey, let me down. I'm not a baby, I can walk on my own!
Hui Yin ignored him and walked into the kitchen. Little Wuji was sitting there, having already regained his composure. He looked up as she entered, and his expression twitched a little as he saw Baby Shang being carried inside her arms.
As his identical twin, Baby Shang was naturally very sensitive to his brother's emotions. He immediately saw that twitch, and the wintry chill being exuded by his displeased frown...
Although Baby Shang had seen his brother's shameful act from earlier, he realized that Wuji was still as terrifying as ever. He was just being carried by his Wifey, and Wuji already wanted to kill him! Brother, aren't you being a bit too jealous?
Hui Yin, not noticing anything, placed Baby Shang on the seat opposite Little Wuji's.
She served them breakfast, heaping their plates with so much food that it looked like the twin peaks piercing the clouds of Hangzhou.
Baby Shang was shocked.
"Too much!" he protested.
He looked at his Wifey with a disbelieving look, but Hui Yin only raised an eyebrow.
"Both of you are too thin, so you need to eat a lot of food," was her reply.
Little Wuji didn't say anything, and only continued to eat his breakfast. As far as he was concerned, as long as it was cooked by his Wifey, he would eat it all to make her happy.
While Hui Yin was in the middle of washing the dishes, a knock on the apartment door interrupted her. Rinsing off the suds from her hands, she hurriedly wiped them on a towel before opening the door.
"Wifey." Jiang Xu, dressed in a business suit, smiled at her. He would have looked very professional if his hair wasn't so messy.
Hui Yin eyed the top of his head critically.
She really hated his hair!
"Come in."
Going back to the kitchen, Hui Yin finished washing the dishes. Like a lost puppy, Jiang Xu followed her.
"Where are they?" he asked.
His mother had hounded him all night, asking him to repeatedly call Hui Yin if her 'two darling babies' were alright. Although his mother had already met Hui Yin, she was still greatly worried about the twins. The most frequently asked question that was fired at Jiang Xu was 'what if the two of them wet the bed?'
His mother knew that both the twins would rather commit suicide than to have this 'little accident' in front of Hui Yin, so she was greatly concerned about the psychological status of her two darling babies.
The two of them were much too young to have depression!
Almost instantly, Jiang Xu got his answer.
Baby Shang and Little Wuji were still inside the kitchen, with Baby Shang wiping the table and Little Wuji sweeping the floor.
They looked solemn as they did their chores, with twin expressions of 'I'm only doing my husbandly duty.'
Looking at this scene, Jiang Xu felt like an uninvited guest crashing into the typical sweet morning routine of a loving family!
