Chapter 1319: Many Children, Many Blessings - MVP Settlement Time
Gu Ran stepped forward, gently straightened her son's disheveled collar, and said softly to Lin Lang, "Honey, last night Ting'er accidentally called out 'Dad'!"
"Really? Ting'er, call me Daddy." Lin Lang looked down and winked at the little Hao Ting in his arms.
Xiao Haoting was still making indistinct babbling sounds.
Lin Lang looked up at Gu Ran, his eyes full of gentle smiles, "Look how clingy Ting'er is to me, he's already so affectionate with me as soon as he got back."
As he spoke, he lowered his head and kissed Xiao Haoting's little face, which made the little guy giggle again. His clear laughter was like silver bells, which was particularly pleasant to hear in the lively hall.
Pan Xiaoting, holding Xiao Haocan, came closer and said with a smile, "Gu Ran, you are so lucky to have given birth to such adorable twins, a boy and a girl. They are truly a rare sight."
Gu Ran smiled and raised her hand to touch the baby Hao Can's face, teasingly saying, "Our little Hao Can is so cute. Xiao Ting, if you want to envy me for having both a son and a daughter, then you should get pregnant with a second child!"
"Don't tease Gu Ran, I'm still in my postpartum period. Even if I wanted a second child, I'd have to wait until Can'er is a bit older!"
Xiao Haocan rested his head on Pan Xiaoting's shoulder, looking curiously at Xiao Zhitian lying in the stroller, reaching out his little hand to reach her, and humming "ee-ee-ya-ya" in his mouth.
Zhou Mengyao walked up with a smile and teased, "Gu Ran, your mother-in-law will be so happy when she sees the twins you gave birth to."
Gu Ran seemed to have heard something unbelievable, and after a moment of stunned silence, she asked in astonishment, "Mengyao, what are you saying? I don't understand."
Wang Xinling, supporting her pregnant belly, stepped forward and said, "Gu Ran, you don't know yet, do you? Our mother-in-law has come back to life!"
"Huh? What nonsense are you talking about?"
“Our mother-in-law died in a car accident and was cremated so many years ago, how could she possibly come back to life?” Gu Ran asked, looking surprised and bewildered.
Lin Lang gently rocked Xiao Haoting in his arms, smiling tenderly: "It was I who traveled back to 1996 and saved our mother from that fatal car accident."
Upon hearing this, Gu Ran was both surprised and delighted, and exclaimed in surprise, "Oh my god! Where is Mom now?"
Lin Lang replied, "Mom is in the kitchen preparing the food right now. She insists on cooking a delicious lunch for her daughter-in-law, grandson, and granddaughter herself."
Gu Ran hurriedly and carefully took her daughter out of the crib and said impatiently, "Honey, let's take Ting'er and Tian'er to the kitchen now to see Mom and let the children recognize their grandma."
Lin Lang smiled and said, "No rush. The kitchen is full of knives, gas, and range hoods. It'll be too messy and scare the child. When Mom is done cooking at lunchtime, you can take the child to meet his grandma."
"Okay, honey, you have a point."
Wang Xinling, who is already a mother-to-be, reached out and touched Xiao Haoting's delicate and beautiful face, and she loved it very much.
She poked Xiao Haoting's clenched fist with her fingertip and praised with a smile, "Honey, look at how handsome Ting'er is. He looks just like you in your one-year-old photo."
Lin Lang looked at Wang Xinling with tender eyes and said with a smile, "Darling, would you like to hold Ting'er for a bit, to practice beforehand and experience what it's like to hold a baby?"
"Great! This is perfect opportunity for me to show my affection for Ting'er." Wang Xinling reached out to take Xiao Haoting.
Gu Ran hurriedly reminded him, "Ting'er is very naughty, be careful he doesn't kick your stomach."
"Don't worry, I'll be careful." Wang Xinling took 11-month-old Haoting from Lin Lang's hands. The warm and soft touch of the baby melted Wang Xinling's heart the moment she held him in her arms.
Xiao Haoting wasn't shy at all; he held tightly to Wang Xinling's neck with his little hands, as if protecting himself from falling.
Wang Xinling smiled broadly as Xiao Haoting hugged her neck, feeling like a new mother.
She carefully supported Xiao Haoting's waist and held him in her arms, afraid that any rough movements would disturb the little guy.
Xiao Haoting's round, chubby body was as soft as a ball of cotton, carrying a sweet, milky scent that warmed Wang Xinling's heart.
She looked down at Xiao Haoting's dark, grape-like eyes, his long, curled eyelashes fluttering like two small fans, and couldn't help but lean down and gently kiss his chubby baby cheeks.
The touch was incredibly soft and tender, with a warm, milky scent. Wang Xinling's heart was instantly filled with joy, and she couldn't help but apply another touch to the other cheek.
"Ting'er is so adorable. His little face is like a peeled egg. I really want to take a bite."
Xiao Haoting giggled at the gentle kiss, tilting his head slightly, sticking out his tongue, and staring at Wang Xinling with bright eyes.
Her little hand restlessly grabbed a strand of Wang Xinling's long hair, as if responding to her affection.
He hummed and babbled, his indistinct syllables full of joy. His little feet, clad in white socks, gently kicked and shoved beside Wang Xinling's arm. The force was small, but it revealed the unique liveliness of a child.
"Look, honey, Ting'er is playing with me!" Wang Xinling looked up at Lin Lang with delight in her eyes, her voice brimming with joy.
Lin Lang said gently, "Ting'er is such a good boy, not shy at all. Does he feel comfortable in Aunt Wang's arms?"
As he spoke, he stretched out his index finger and gently poked Xiao Haoting's chin. The little guy immediately opened his mouth and tried to bite the waving finger, his movements clumsy yet adorable.
Lin Lang quickly withdrew his hand and playfully pinched his son's little nose.
"You little glutton, you even want to eat Daddy's fingers? Grandma will make you something delicious later, like steamed egg custard, so you can eat as much as you want, okay?"
Xiao Haoting seemed to understand but not quite, he just grinned, and a little drool dripped down the corner of his mouth.
Lin Lang hurriedly took out a clean tissue from his personal space and gently wiped Xiao Haoting's face with such tenderness.
Wang Xinling lowered her head again and gently rubbed her cheek against Xiao Haoting's forehead, feeling the little guy's warm body temperature, and a strong sense of anticipation welled up in her heart.
She smiled and said, "Honey, when our baby is born, will he/she be as cute as Ting'er?"
Lin Lang naturally put his arm around Wang Xinling's shoulder, his eyes full of tenderness: "Of course."
“Look how much Ting’er and Can’er look alike. Genetics are really amazing. We don’t even need a paternity test. They look exactly like me when I was a child.”
Wang Xinling looked at the baby Haoting being held in Pan Xiaoting's arms, and her heart softened again.
She said with a smile, "Seeing so many adorable little babies in the Lin family home every day, I can't wait to become a mother."
Zhou Mengyao stood aside, watching this heartwarming scene, a smile playing on her lips: "Xinling, you're so good at coaxing children, you'll definitely be a good mother in the future."
Gu Ran smiled and chimed in, "Yes, Ting'er rarely clings to anyone other than me. It seems he really likes you."
“That’s right,” Pan Xiaoting said, hugging Xiao Haocan and jokingly adding, “Ting’er is setting an example for her future little brother, teaching him how to please his mother.”
Wang Xinling held Xiao Haoting and gently rocked him, humming a Taiwanese nursery rhyme in a soft and melodious voice.
Xiao Haoting gradually calmed down, resting his head on her shoulder. His little eyes were still curiously looking around, but his little hands were tightly gripping the hem of Wang Xinling's clothes, as if he had found a sense of security.
Hearing Xiao Haocan's babbling beside him, Xiao Haoting would turn his head and wave his little hand at his younger brother, looking innocent and carefree.
Lin Lang looked at this scene with tenderness in his eyes, then turned to Gu Ran and said, "Come here, let me hold Tian'er and let me dote on my little daughter."
Gu Ran carefully handed her daughter into Lin Lang's arms.
Lin Lang held Xiao Zhitian in his arms with great affection, looking down at his adorable little daughter, his smile deepening: "Tian'er is so well-behaved! You smile as soon as you see Daddy!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Zhitian seemed to understand. Her big, dark eyes darted around, and she stared straight at Lin Lang, making a "ee-ya" sound as if she were greeting him.
Lin Lang gently kissed his daughter's rosy cheek and coaxed, "Good girl, call me Daddy!"
Little Zhitian snuggled against Lin Lang, grinned, and revealed her gums, which had already sprouted her fourth little tooth. Her soft and adorable appearance made everyone present feel a surge of affection for her.
"Sweetie, call me Daddy!"
Lin Lang gently rocked his precious daughter in his arms, his movements so tender as if he were afraid of hurting the little one.
Xiao Zhitian giggled as she looked at Lin Lang, her little hands gripping his collar tightly, and she snuggled her head into his arms.
"Hey...you little ingrate, why don't you call me Dad?"
Little Zhitian's little mouth moved as she tried to pronounce "Daddy," but what came out was a mumbled "ee-ya," which made everyone laugh.
Gu Ran leaned forward, reached out and touched her daughter's delicate face, and coaxed softly, "Tian Tian, be good and call me Mommy."
When Xiao Zhitian saw her mother's familiar figure, she immediately waved her little hands, kicked her little legs, and called out in a clear and soft voice, "Mommy."
"Oh, what a good daughter of Mommy." Gu Ran happily kissed Xiao Zhitian on the cheek.
Lin Lang was extremely envious and said with a red face, "Hey...it seems that mothers are still the closest. Tian'er, call him Daddy, call him Daddy now."
As soon as Lin Lang finished speaking, little Hao Ting, who was being held in Wang Xinling's arms, actually called out in a clear, childish voice, "Daddy!"
"Oh..."
When Lin Lang heard Xiao Haoting call him "Dad" for the first time, his heart almost melted with excitement.
He immediately turned to look at Xiao Haoting, his eyes full of affection, and said, "Good boy, Ting'er, call me 'Daddy' again."
Little Haoting, his head resting on Wang Xinling's shoulder, looked at Lin Lang and giggled sweetly. His big eyes sparkled, and he called out again in his childish voice, "Dad... Daddy!"
"Oh, my darling son! Let Daddy give you a kiss." Lin Lang couldn't hide his joy and kissed Xiao Haoting on the cheek.
Xiao Haoting's two clear "Dad"s were like pebbles thrown into Lin Lang's heart lake, so healing.
Gu Ran watched this scene, her eyes also filled with happiness.
