Mr. CEO Wants to Renew Our Contract-Chapter 732: Deeply Rooted Love (177)

***

When Gu Lili woke up in the morning, she felt dizzy and light-headed. After measuring her temperature, it was over 38 degrees; she had a fever and felt weak all over.

And that was not all; her right eyelid kept twitching.

There’s a saying that a twitching left eyelid means good fortune, while a twitching right eyelid foretells disaster.

Gu Lili couldn’t shake off the feeling that something wasn’t right today, perhaps it was psychological.

After taking medicine, she got dressed.

The two little guys would be one year old in another month.

One was plumper than the other; both were chubby tots.

Since they could crawl and wobble around, each was more restless than the other, and exceedingly mischievous.

While Gu Lili was brushing her teeth, the two children, like guerrilla fighters, wobbled into the walk-in closet and randomly threw whatever they could reach.

When she got to the walk-in closet, the scene was unbearable.

"You two..."

Seeing her, the two little guys consciously stood together. Every time she saw this scene, Gu Lili’s anger would naturally subside.

She picked up one child in each arm, got them dressed and into shoes, and carried them downstairs.

Long Yubei walked in at that moment and quickly reached out to take one.

"Aren’t you at the company? Why are you back?"

"Feng Xi is in the hospital about to give birth. I came to pick you guys up."

"I need to eat something. I’m too hungry," she said, heading to the dining room to eat.

As the family of four were leaving, they happened to see Nan Yuesheng with her pregnant belly, dropping off Nan Ningyi for piano lessons. Although they had a piano at home and could hire a private tutor, Nan Yuesheng believed attending school and mingling with other children was beneficial.

After a brief greeting, Long Yubei drove to People’s Hospital.

Upon reaching the operating room, Long Fengxi was still inside undergoing a caesarean section.

The baby’s gender had already been identified as a boy, so everyone was looking forward to the new arrival with anticipation.

Five or six minutes later, a cry came from the operating room; the child was born, and Shen Congmo couldn’t wait to go inside.

After Long Fengxi was stitched up and brought out of the operating room, the Dragon Mother said, "We will take the two children back with us first; your grandparents are eager to see their great-grandson."

If it wasn’t for Long Fengxi giving birth, Father Long and Dragon Mother would still not be able to step out of the Long Family home.

"I’ll take them back," insisted Long Yubei, feeling it safer to do it himself.

So, on the way back, they split up: Gu Lili went home, and Long Yubei went to drop the children off at their grandparents’ house.

Needless to say, once the kids were there, they wouldn’t be back for at least two days.

When she got home, she rechecked her temperature with a thermometer, and the fever had subsided.

With a headache, she lay down in bed to rest.

When Long Yubei returned, he noticed her pale complexion, "What’s wrong? Do you feel unwell?"

"I had a fever this morning, but after taking medicine, it went down. I just feel weak," she replied.

He placed his hand on her forehead to make sure the fever had indeed subsided before sighing with relief, "Then you rest well; I have to go back to the company." 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

"Okay, you go."

"Grandma said she will come to pick them up the day after tomorrow, you rest well and get some good sleep."

She murmured an acknowledgment, and her eyes closed.

She hadn’t slept well last night. The two little guys, as if they had conspired together, fussed and refused to sleep. If they weren’t sleeping, she couldn’t either, only managing to sleep at twelve.

No one had a good night’s rest, and she kept dreaming.

Now lying in bed, sleepiness crept over her again.

She slept for two hours straight until she was awakened by a series of phone rings.

By the time she opened her eyes, the ringing had already stopped.
