Chapter 99 Happiness
After being discharged from the hospital, Jiang Yining was treated like a fragile glass doll by her whole family. However, this pregnancy was exceptionally difficult, with severe morning sickness, frequent dizziness, and loss of appetite causing her to lose weight rapidly.
Xie Shiyan was heartbroken and wished he could lock her at home and not let her out of the house. Xie's mother and Jiang's mother took turns watching over her, never leaving her side.
Xiao Xiao and Nian An often visited her with carefully prepared snacks, trying their best to coax her to eat more. But even so, her nutritional indicators still didn't improve.
Looking at his wife's pale and haggard face, Xie Shiyan hugged her tenderly after a prenatal checkup. He hesitated for a long time before speaking, "Ningning, how about... we..." He couldn't bear to say the rest, but Jiang Yining instantly understood what he meant.
She suddenly looked up, her eyes unusually firm, even carrying a hint of anger at being offended: "Xie Shiyan, what nonsense are you talking about? Getting pregnant is fate, and it's twins. We're already five months along, how can we not want them? No matter how hard it is, I will give birth to them safely." Xie Shiyan was stunned by the light in her eyes and immediately fell silent, only filled with tenderness and self-reproach.
And so, Jiang Yining gritted her teeth and endured the pain, finally reaching the eighth month of her pregnancy amidst everyone's anxiety. Once the fetus's condition stabilized, Xie Shiyan arranged for her to stay in the hospital's VIP suite to prepare for childbirth without saying a word.
He practically moved his office to the hospital room, delegating all business trips to Secretary Lin and the team, while he stayed by her side every step of the way.
Seeing the dark circles under her husband's eyes and the weariness between his brows, Jiang Yining felt heartbroken: "Ayan, I'm very safe here. There are doctors and nurses. Go back and get some sleep, and spend time with Chengcheng and Yanyan. The children say they haven't played with their dad in a long time."
Every day, Xie's mother and Jiang's mother would bring their twins, a boy and a girl, who were almost two years old and already spoke very fluently, to visit her. The two little ones seemed to understand that their mother was working hard, and would always say in their sweet, childish voices, "Go, Mommy!" and "Don't be afraid, Mommy!"
The soft little hands gently touched her mother's belly, bringing Jiang Yining immense comfort and strength. Xie Shiyan watched from the side, feeling both gratified and a little jealous—his wife's attention was completely diverted to the children; who would comfort him, her equally worried husband?
At 36 weeks of pregnancy, Jiang Yining suddenly went into labor. This delivery was another smooth one, and she gave birth to twins—Xie Yihao and Xie Yixin. However, due to being slightly premature, the two little ones were a bit underdeveloped and needed to be observed in an incubator.
Two weeks later, Jiang Yining finally returned to her warm new home in the Crown Villa District, which had been prepared for her four children, with her two little ones who were finally able to be discharged from the hospital.
After Jiang Yining had completed her two-month postpartum confinement and her body had basically recovered, Xie Shiyan held her in his arms during a tender moment and whispered in her ear, "From now on... we don't need to use protection anymore."
Jiang Yining was taken aback: "Huh?"
Xie Shiyan kissed her forehead, his tone calm yet incredibly firm: "I had a tubal ligation. Ningning, I can't let you suffer the pain of pregnancy anymore. Whether we have a child or not, nothing is more important than you." He would rather not have a child than let her go through that torment again.
Overwhelmed with emotion, Jiang Yining hugged the man who cherished her tightly, responding to his deep love with passion that lasted all night.
