Chapter 361: Our children

A few days later, Liu Jian and Liu Nian were finally discharged from the incubator. Nana was overjoyed to get to hold them in her arms finally.
The twins were always lively even in the incubator, but today they were flailing their hands in extra excitement. Their eyes were gleaming brightly at their mother.
“Baaaa..baaaaa…”
“Uuuuuuuuuu….”
Nana was holding Jian while Liang Xiao Dan was holding Nian in her arms.
Liang Zou was silently standing at a side, pursing his lips. Naturally, he wanted to hold his grandsons too, but he didn’t dare to ask Xiao Dan about it. In the last few days, he got nothing but cold shoulder from her.
Jinhai’s heart warmed up. His gaze softened, watching his wife and sons happily laughing.
Nana felt his gaze at her, but she didn’t look back at him. Remembering what happened in the hospital a few days back made her cheeks flush in embarrassment. She furiously blushed.
Shin excitedly took Jian in his arms from Nana.
“Hey, champ. I am your uncle Shin.”
“Booooooo…” Liu Jian sheepishly grinned at him.
Surprisingly Huian was also there today because of her treatment appointment. It just got over, so Shin asked her if she wanted to meet the twins. She had nothing much to do, later on, so she agreed. Huian was just standing at a corner.
She stared at Shin, whose face was lit with a brilliant smile, playing with Jian. But with that smile, there were also some other inexplicable emotions in them that he was trying his best to hide from everyone else.
It wasn’t difficult for Huian to guess.
She recalled the argument she listened to that day in his clinic. His ex-girlfriend Mu Shuchun aborted their child, and Shin was obviously furious at that. That was why he broke up with her.
Now, she looked at him and wondered if he was thinking about his dead child and wondering if he or she could have been alive.
Huian frowned. Somehow, that thought didn’t sit well with her. She felt a bit uncomfortable, but she quickly shrugged it off.
Jing cried. “Not fair! Let me play with them too!”
Yukito jolted a bit momentarily, hearing his voice, but there was no change in his expression.
In high school, Jing wasn’t leaving any chance to be with Yukito. As an instructor, whenever he needed any help, he would always ask Yukito to carry these documents and those papers. He would always stick to his side how much ever possible.
Jing would wait every day after high school outside the gate to drop him home, but Yukito always strode past him as if he was air. But Jing didn’t feel dejected, and he didn’t stop his pursuit.
Yukira understood his brother’s feelings, and he sighed.
I hope they sort it out. Clearly, Liu Jing still affects you, bro.
Jing too sneaked a glance at his love, but there wasn’t any trace of expression on his face.
Shin smiled. “Let’s go back home now. Nana and my cute nephews need rest now.”
Since Nana stayed in Liang villa now, it was natural that she would take her sons with her too.
But she felt bad for keeping them away from the Liu family. Because of their differences, the others would be affected too.
Moreover, she felt a bit sad that Jinhai…
No matter their differences, she didn’t want Jian and Nian to lack fatherly love and suffer because of their fight. After all, who could better understand than herself how sorrowful it was to live without the parent’s love.
It was unfair to think that the twins won’t understand it because they were still babies. Babies do have natural instincts to want both of their parents. Plus, she had already seen how happy they would get whenever Jinhai came to meet them and cry whenever he was about to leave.
Liu Chunhua, Grandma Liu, and Liu Hai understood the situation.
Liu Chunhua smiled. “It’s alright, dear. You have every right to take them with you. Don’t worry about us.”
She glared at Jinhai. “Right, Jinhai?”
Jinhai smiled. “En. The twins must be with their mother.”
Nana trembled just a bit.
Liu Hai nodded. He grinned. “And we are not going to stay away from them. From now on, I will daily come to visit them.” He cheekily looked at Liang Zou. “I hope you won’t mind me intruding.”
Liang Zou felt a headache coming. He sighed.
When they were about to leave, Nana said, “Mom, Dad. You go ahead. I will pack some things here and come in five minutes.”
“Okay.”
Jinhai had the feeling that she might want to talk to him, so he stayed behind too.
Silence.
Jian was with Shin while Nana was carrying Nian in her arms.
After a long pause, she said, “Will you hold Nian? I need to pack some stuff.”
Jinhai immediately came over. While handing him over, their hands brushed against each other. Nana froze.
Once again, the intimate scene in the room flashed past her mind. Her voice turned a bit hoarse, and her throat felt stuffy.
Nian giggled that brought her out of that R-18 memories.
She coughed. Jinhai didn’t miss any expression. His gaze deepened as he looked at her petite face, blushing hard.
She hurriedly turned and started to push the baby supplies in her bag.
Nian was busy staring at his father. He excitedly squirmed in his arms and started playing with the button of his shirt.
“Aaa bbaaaa….booomsksks…”
Nana was done.
She raised her head and stared at Jinhai. For a moment, their gazes locked on each other.
Nana slowly said, “We don’t live together anymore.”
Jinhai stiffened.
“But I don’t want our sons to suffer. They deserve your love as much as mine. So…so, I won’t mind if you come to the Liang villa to meet them. You can come whenever you want.”
Jinhai stared at her, speechless.
Our sons…even after all that happened, she still called Jian and Nian as ‘our’ children.
Jinhai felt wet in his eyes.
I used our children to marry her. She should be angry. No. She is. But she isn’t letting that cloud her reason and judgment.
He had an urge to hug her, but he couldn’t.
Nana narrowed her eyes. “But! You won’t come near me or talk to me. You will only meet the twins and leave. Don’t dare take advantage of the situation. What…what happened a few days back must not happen again!”
“Boooooooooo….”
Nian’s tone expressed his disappointment as if not satisfied with his mother.
Nana’s eyebrow twitched.
Jinhai inwardly chuckled. “Okay. I understand.”
Nana hummed. She took Nian back. As she took a step ahead, Jinhai softly held her arm.
“What?”
Jinhai stared hard at Nana before he bent down and kissed her cheek.
Nana felt his warm, thin lips pressed on her cheek, and she stiffened.
“Thank you, Nana. I love you.”
