Doted By The Alpha

"You're here again," Daniel exclaimed cheerfully while supporting his massive stomach as he paced towards Laotian in excitement. When they've reached one another, need not to say their lips closed briefly as they greeted before they separated again with their bodies still intact and Laotian's warm palms on Daniel's round stomach. It's only been 3 days since they last saw each other but it felt like Daniel's stomach was much bigger somehow in his eyes.

"Work finished quickly. How are you? Luangmin and the twins?" Laotian whispered, ignoring his earlier thoughts as he carefully and securely supported Daniel's body. Meanwhile, Daniel smiled sweetly, biting his lower lips unable to hide his joy, and once again hugged Laotian, rubbing his face against his c.h.e.s.t.

"The twins and I are fine. They're very lively as usual, and about Minmin, I was actually about to call you," Daniel informed excitedly and this time their bodies finally separated putting on a small distance between them.

"Did something good happen aside from my surprise appearance?" Laotian asked chuckling, he was kind of disappointed that he wasn't the whole reason why such a sweet smile was on Daniel's lips but still couldn't help but feel glad seeing such a smile on his beloved.

"You see, finally Minmin had recovered his sight. I'm not sure yet if he's healed completely so I was planning to go to the hospital and see, and since Lan is also here we're going to have him checked as well. I planned to call you immediately but I was so excited that I forgot. Fortunately, you're here, Laotian," Daniel reported, it was evident in his voice that he was beyond thrilled. Of course, who wouldn't? Today was a shock to him, it was just a usual morning when he noticed Lan and Minmin were playing like they normally did when they still had their normal sight. When Daniel approached them and asked, it was then he found out that his son could already see. He was so happy he ended you crying.

"That's great news indeed. See, I told you he'll be okay," Laotian said happy as well. The last time he came and visited the Omega, Daniel was depressed when their son's result stayed the same. Laotian tried to encourage him saying that Luangmin will heal anytime soon since Lan was already showing signs but his wife remained disheartened about it despite his reassurance. Thankfully now that Daniel was seeing such great results, he would feel a little bit better about the whole situation.

"Yeah, I'm sorry for doubting," Daniel said with a sad smile. When he couldn't see any signs of Luangmin healing compared to Lan, even though the doctor said that his son was going to heal a little slower because he's too young but assured him that he was going to heal eventually, Daniel still couldn't erase in his mind the fact that maybe Luangmin won't ever heal. He was so terrified and felt depressed.

"That's okay, I understand," Laotian asked with a tender smile as he c.a.r.e.s.sed Daniel's soft cheeks. "Where is he now?" Laotian asked, this time they started walking towards the house.

"Maybe in the living room. Ian and I were preparing both of them but as soon as you called, I left the rest of the preparation to Ian but they were almost done so the two might be playing in the living room already," Daniel said, as he mentioned earlier, they were planning to go and visit the hospital.

"I came in the right timing," Laotian said and as soon as they walked inside the house and to the living room, Laotian instantly saw Luangmin and Lan playing with their toys all dressed up and ready to go.

"Minmin, Dada's here," Daniel called, and almost instantly Minmin looked in their direction. It took a quick two seconds for him to recognize Laotian but when he did, an ear-to-ear smile flashed on his lips better to toddled towards them. Seeing this Daniel couldn't help but smile and even tear up a little bit knowing that Luangmin had really recovered his sight.

"Dada!" Luangmin called and soon reached Laotian's right leg and hugged it, following him was Lan who standing there with a smile as well before he respectfully greeted Laotian. Watching this Laotian chuckled a little before he lifted Luangmin on his arms and later stepped forward to mess with Lan's hair.

"You two seem to be doing quite well," Laotian said. Although he does not like children, to begin with, there was no doubt that he would care for the future heirs of the family. Lan especially considering he's the eldest and seems to have the ability to run the company since he's smart and already m.a.t.u.r.e enough for his age. This nephew of his, kind of reminded him of himself when he was his age, it was a surprise to him that Hanlu actually birthed a well-behaved child, although no doubt this was all thanks to Ian Andrews.

"Yes Uncle, Minmin and I can both play now like we used to," Lan said with a smile. Before he first met his uncles, he was really afraid to get near them because they were too intimidating but after a while, he realized that wasn't the case. Although his uncle Laotian and uncle Tian Zi both have poker faces, Lan could feel they weren't bad people.

"Hmmm, and Lan can see even clearer now. Minmin seems to see things a little blurry but he can already recognize you from afar," Daniel added with a proud smile, as he rubbed Minmin's soft arms. Lan also nodded in agreement, his sight was far better than three days ago.

"Baby, why didn't you tell me your husband was coming? I could have prepared more food for him," Daniel and Laotian were still standing at the entrance of the living room, when Diane suddenly arrived coming from the kitchen and approached them.

"I didn't know he was coming, Mom," Daniel chuckled and replied, and watched Diane hug Laotian as a greeting.

"I'm sorry, my arrival was a surprise, Mother," Laotian explained to which Diane quickly understood because last time the Alpha also arrived in surprise.

"That's okay, did you have breakfast already? You came at the right time, we're about to go to the hospital to get the kids checked," Diane said and urged all of them to come and sit on the couch since it's bad for Daniel to stay standing for a long time.

"Yes, I took a quick meal before coming here," Laotian replied, putting Luangmin down so he could play with Lan more before they go out.

"That's what I've told him, Mom. We're just waiting for Ian to finish preparing. Dad can't come with us though cause he's busy with work but he said he'll join us at lunch since we're also planning to go have lunch out," Daniel said enthusiastically. It's been years since he had gone out with his Mom and Dad so he was very excited especially now that there had been an additional member of the family.

"Yes, that's right. I'll tell your dad Laotian had arrived, he'll feel much better when he knew we have an Alpha Male around," Diane said, knowing that her husband Armand would have rushed his work just so he could come with them earlier. If Armand knew they were going out with Mo Laotian, that should make him feel at ease.

"You two stay here with the kids, I'll just get my purse and call your Dad," Diane quickly excused and soon left leaving Daniel and Laotian in the living room chatting like normal. And 5 minutes passed, Ian came in dressed in casual attire. When he saw Laotian, he greeted him briefly with a smile and a nod before he walked towards them looking like he had something to say.

"What happened?" Daniel asked, noticing Ian's expression. It didn't seem like it was something bad but he just had to ask just to make sure everything was fine.

"I called Hanlu and told him the news about Minmin so he quickly decided to come and visit. I also accidentally told him that his older brother and then Mother and Father, so now they're all on their way here. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to invite them without your Mom's permission," Ian replied, sounding a little frustrated. When they first came to visit three days ago and decided to stay, both Mr. and Mrs. Mo also insisted that they would come but Hanlu was able to convince them not to go somehow. However since today was the second time, it won't be easy to convince them. Of course, it's not because Ian didn't want the two elders to come, it's just that he was also just a visitor at the Lopez residence. It was not right for him and Hanlu to invite a guest in even if the Lopez's wouldn't mind.

"It's okay Ian. Mom and Dad wouldn't mind at all, although we should tell her quickly so she could prepare for the accommodation," Daniel chuckled. Surely Diane wouldn't mind, Laura is her closest friend now and Laura had taken Diane and Armand to the Mo residence so warmly before however if both Laura and Chendong were planning to stay longer, Diane will need necessary preparation since the Lopez's residence only has two rooms for guests and Ian and Lan were already occupying one of it. Although the Lopez residence is one of the largest properties in town, it does not compare to the Mo Estate.

"Yeah, I've already told her when I met her on the way here, she was panicking," Ian said and sighed, feeling guilty.

"No need to worry, Ian. Mom is just like that, she always wants what's best for her guests," Daniel said and could already imagine his mother personally cleaning the unoccupied rooms and planning what meal to serve. He wouldn't be surprised either if she decided to come with them today just so she could make sure everything is prepared for the guests.

"It's a good thing they're coming as well. It's been a while since they last saw Minmin," Daniel continued to assure when Diane suddenly came in a rush and was already dressed in her normal house attire.

"Baby, something came up and I can't go with you all to the hospital. Laotian can you accompany them to the hospital instead?" Diane said, making Daniel chuckle knowing that he guessed right. There was just no way his mom would go out when they're expecting guests.

"Mom, it's okay. I'll just call you when we get the results," Daniel said after Laotian nodded assuring Diane that he will take good care of Daniel and Ian as well as the kids.

"Thank you, Honey. Also, don't cancel the restaurant reservation, go and enjoy yourself with the kids," Diane said one last time before she disappeared somewhere again.

Not long after that, finally, they were all heading out to the hospital except Diane. When they arrived there, they were immediately accommodated being that Luangmin and Lan were both VIPs from the main hospital branch. It didn't take too long for the test to finish, especially the eye examination. They did a couple of physical examinations and instead of waiting for the result to come, the hospital was kind enough to offer a special delivery for the doc.u.ments.

"Minmin, you're going to see even clearer from now on," Daniel exclaimed, pinching his son's chubby cheeks after he congratulated Ian and Lan first for his fast recovery. Meanwhile, giggling at his mother's words even though he didn't understand them quite well, Minmin let out a fruity laugh and unintentionally rubbed the candy given to him by the doctor against Laotian's suit. Daniel saw this and silently laughed seeing how Laotian was pretending he didn't mind at all.

"Minmin, your candy is making a mess out of Dada's clothes," Daniel mentioned, still giggling. Ian on the side slightly laughed as well because he didn't expect the Alpha was much more tolerant than he actually looked. He always noticed the Alpha kind of competing with Luangmin when it came to Daniel's attention, he also didn't look like he was the kind to like kids unlike Hanlu so it was rather a surprise that the Alpha was very patient.

"Oh, sowwy Dada," Minmin said adorably and later put the lollipop in his mouth like nothing happened.

"It's okay," Laotian said, combing Luangmin's hair using his fingers in a loving manner. What is a dirty suit compared to his son getting better and Daniel feeling much better? He would sacrifice a lot of his expensive clothes if that means that the day Daniel and Luangmin will be living with him again comes at last.
