Li Shen put the locket around the kid's neck and let it hang on his neck. \"When you get older, give it to a girl you love.\"
\"I love my mother.\" Rice ball confessed.
Li Shen controlled himself from laughing and said, \"Give it to a girl who is not your mother.\"
Rice ball pondered deeply about it and then said, \"My sister.\"
\"I didn't know you have a sister.\"
\"I don't but daddy said that we are going to have a sister. She is in mommy's stomach.\"
\"So, she is pregnant.\" Li Shen smiled. \"No, give it to a girl who isn't your mother or sister but she will be important to you.\"
Rice ball looked at him in awe. This was the first time he ever saw this guy smiling. He nodded and said, \"I will.\" Though he didn't understand who could be more important to him other than his mother and sister he promised to keep this locket to himself.
After the party, Mu Lan and the rice balls went back to Paris and a few months later, Mu Lan gave birth to twin daughters. For some reason, they look exactly like Mu Lan and they were named LanYing and LiJuan. Everyone including Li Han and Li Shan came to see the twins.
Four rice balls were excited to have two sisters. But they were confused who was who since the girls looked the same. They gathered around their sisters and father who was cuddling them.
Xue Lin only commented, \"Newborn babies are ugly. In which way do they even look like Xiao Lan?\"
Zhuan Zhen laughed. \"Let them grow up a little, you will find the resembles.\"
Carlo thought in his mind, 'Maybe I should make her my disciple.'
Professor Ryuren called out, \"Alright, everyone, it's time for lunch.
Xue Lin commented during lunch, \"I don't understand. Is there something wrong with your family, Xiao Lan?\"
Mu Lan chewed her meal and asked, \"What do you mean?\"
\"Your father has a twin younger brother, your mother has a twin younger sister and you gave birth to quadruple boys and twin girls. No wonder I felt a little crowded today. Population is increasing day by day.\"
Mu Lan pouted and others laughed. Yan Su agreed with Xue Lin. \"I think you are right about that. The family of two became a family of eight in six years. It has to do something with Lan dear's family gene.\"
\"There is no such thing.\" Lu Feng denied. He was feeding his daughter Meixian.
Meixian said, \"Does auntie Lan do it a lot with uncle just like my mommy and daddy?\"
Both Mu Lan and Lu Feng flinched. And others froze. Yan Su and Mu Liang didn't seem to be affected.
Mu Feng showed great interest. He asked, \"Little Meixian, what do you understand by 'it'?\"
\"Brother Feng!\" Mu Lan hissed and kicked his leg under the table. There were elders with them and the kids.
\"Ouch!\" Mu Feng almost jumped out of his seat.
Meixian answered, \"The exercise mommy and daddy do in the bedroom. I never heard people screaming while exercising. So, I experimented a bit.\"
Yan Su praised her daughter, \"That's my daughter.\"
Lu Feng coughed vigorously. \"You don't need to experiment with this one Meixian.\"
\"But why? Don't you do lots of research daddy?\" Meixian blinked.
Xue Lin answered, \"The only thing your father researches is medicine. You can try and learn medicine. You need to study a lot though.\"
Meixian shut her mouth. The last thing she wanted to do was studying. She loved traveling and taking pictures. Reading books was her least favorite.
Mu Lan and Lu Feng sighed in relief. They thanked Xue Lin in their minds. She knew how to shut up an unnecessary mouth.
Mu Lan looked at Mu Liang who was looking at his adorable daughters with a soft and tender gaze. His fingers were rubbing their soft, flushed cheeks. He was glued to this pair the moment they were born. When they were alone, he hugged his wife and thanked her in a soft voice repeatedly. He even cried in happiness. At that time, she could only embrace his body. She was happy that she could give him daughters.
Mu Lan smiled thinking about that moment. She only prayed that he wouldn't forget his sons after getting daughters.
Jonah said, \"I'm grateful that my nephew and nieces will attend my engagement party and wedding ceremony. I'll make my nieces the bride maids.
Meili pinched his hand. Her face turned red in embarrassment. 'We aren't engaged yet. How could he speak so shamelessly? Honestly!'
Qi Ying suggested, \"You can let rice balls become bride men. I think it will be wonderful!\"
Jing Sheng said, \"Xiao Ying also let rice balls become her bride men. They were so happy back then. I think this time, they will agree to do it.\"
Mu Lan said, \"The only reason they agreed because brother Feng begged them. That's why rice ball number one agreed. His brothers listen to him and that's why they didn't refuse.\"
Mu Feng protested, \"Hey, sister Lan Lan, please don't dig out my dirty past.\"
Mu Chen said, \"I also decided to marry Hugo. We have been in a relationship for so long. We should tie the knot.\"
Grandpa Mu Cheng glared at his third grandson. 'This shameless ba****rd! How dare he talk about it in front of others.'
Mu Lan gleefully said, \"Congratulations brother Chen! My blessing is with you always.\"
\"Humf! Who cares about your blessing?\" Mu Chen scoffed.
Noel put the peeled shrimps on Jing Sheng's bowl. Jing Sheng thanked him with a smiling face. Mu Jin looked at the pair with a hurt expression.
Meili told Jonah, \"Look at them and look at you. Can't you peel the shrimps for me to show your affection?\"
Jonah whispered in her ear, \"You want me to show affection…. I will show it in the bed.\"
Rice ball number three Laquan was sitting beside him. He heard it and said aloud, \"Uncle Jonah, do you want to show your affection like Meixian's parents in the bed?\"
Her younger sister Weiwei looked at her and asked excitedly, \"Sister, are you going to give me a niece too?\"
Meili wished that she could dig a hole and bury herself there. It was so humiliating.
