Ji Shiting took a deep breath and said, âIt turns out that my trust in her is not without a reason.â
âHumph.â Qiao Yanze said disdainfully. âThatâs because three years isnât long enough. Why donât you go missing for another year or two?â
Qiao Yanze couldnât stand his smugness, so he kept irking him in his sore spot.
âBut Iâm back now.â Ji Shiting shot him a glance. âSo nothing will happen.â
Qiao Yanze touched his chin with the tip of his tongue and stopped joking.
âYou have to be careful this time.â He looked at the twins in the living room. âYou canât miss it anymore.â
Ji Shiting swallowed hard and nodded slowly but firmly.
âTheir birthday is in three days?â he said.
âYes,â Qiao Yanze answered. âThey like you a lot.â
âYes. They also said they want me to be their father and not you.â Ji Shiting looked at him.
Qiao Yanze sighed. These two kids really knew how to play.
âReally?â He smiled. âTheyâre just sweet-talking. Donât take it seriously.â
âI think theyâre serious.â Ji Shiting raised an eyebrow. âShouldnât you reflect on yourself?â
Qiao Yanze chuckled inwardly.
âYou should be the one reflecting! You donât even recognize your own children, yet you still have the cheek to blame me!â
âWhy donât I give one of them to you?â He said.
Ji Shiting was stunned. âAre you serious?â
âYes.â Qiao Yanze chuckled. âThe two kids are giving me a headache.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âWhy donât you give both of them to me?â Ji Shiting curled his lips. âHow can you separate the twins? Besides, the two of them have great chemistry.â
Ji Shiting felt that every time the two kids looked at each other, they would communicate tacitly. Was this the telepathy of the twins?
Qiao Yanze thought to himself, âYouâre so silly.â
âYou should give birth to some children yourself.â He resisted the urge to roll his eyes.
â¦
In the living room, the two kids were finally tired, so Li Yinian carried them to the sofa and served them some dessert she had made herself.
The two of them thanked her and ate happily.
Li Yinian smiled and stroked their heads. âWhy were you guys being so naughty? You know thatâs your father, right?â
âBecause Dad doesnât remember us.â Jinchen licked his lips. âAnd Mom wanted to keep this surprise until our birthday, so we had to pretend not to know him.â
Li Yinian chuckled and said, âYou two are smart.â
âDaddy gave this to me.â Jinqing raised her hand. She was wearing Ji Shitingâs wristwatch, but it was too big for her. She could slide it all the way down her forearm if she raised her hand but even so, she was very happy.
âDo you guys like your dad?â Li Yinian smiled.
âI do.â Jinchen nodded. âDad is so tall and strong.â
âMost importantly, he likes me and Jinchen,â Jinqing said proudly.
Other people complimenting their father in front of them wouldnât be as effective as meeting him once in person. Actually, they had expectations and had imagined what their father would be like but every time they mentioned his father, their mother would be very sad, so they gradually didnât want to mention him anymore.
