Unexpected Encounter: They Were Meant To Be Together

"I would have done that for you if it was humanly possible babe but I can't." 

Looking at the screen, Qiang helplessly shook her head, "What did you do Guang? We are in very big trouble." 

Widening his eyes in shock, he stated, "Wait what? How is it my fault? How was I supposed to know that your ovaries are going to release two eggs? In fact, I don't even know which time we actually managed to get pregnant." 

"Now that you mentioned it, I think it happened when we made out in your office. What do you think?" 

Thinking for a while, he answered, "Hmm that was pretty intense but I remember using protection at that time. I think it was around brother Zian's wedding time?" 

"Maybe, wait why are we even talking about it? It doesn't matter which time I got pregnant. The point is we have to raise two kids together, it means double responsibility." 

Kissing the back of her hand, he ȧssured her, "Don't worry, we are going to be okay." Looking at the screen, he smiled, "I want them to be girls, what do you think?" 

"I think they are both boys. Look at them, they look so naughty," she explained. 

Helplessly shaking his head, Guang chuckled, "You are funny." 

…..

Ashton and Elsa's place. 

"Babe, are you ready? Guang and Qiang are already on their way home, we have to leave now," Ashton remarked. 

"I am almost ready Ash, I just need to wear my shoes," she remarked before coming out of the room holding a pair of heels. 

Helplessly shaking his head, he sighed, "Heels again? Why do you wear it when you know it's gonna hurt later?" 

"Because it goes well with the dress and makes me feel confident. And also because my boyfriend is super tall and I don't wanna look small while walking with him," she answered. 

"I can bend my knees a little while walking with you." Bending his knees, he added, "Look this way." 

Raising her brows, she inquired, "Are you making fun of my height?" 

"What? I wouldn't dare to do something like that. I love you." Rubbing the sides of her arm, he rubbed his cheek against hers. "I love you." 

Pinching his arm, she sighed, "Your friend is going to become a father and here you are still acting like a baby." 

Scrunching his brows, he pouted his lips, "But I am your baby and this is the third time you have mentioned Guang being a father, you are not pregnant right?" 

"Of course not." Pausing for a while, she inquired, "What will you do if I tell you that I am pregnant?" 

Pointing towards the door, he answered, "You will see a man shaped hole in the door." When she rolled her eyes, Ashton gave her a peck on her cheeks. "I am just kidding, if something like that happens, I will obviously do what Guang is doing right now." 

Squeezing his cheeks, she smiled, "I know you are very responsible when something really serious happens." Glancing at her watch, she added, "We should seriously go." 

Giving her a peck on her lips, he nodded his head, "Let's go." 

…..

Parking lot. 

"Wait here, I'll get the car," Ashton instructed. 

While Elsa was waiting for him, someone faintly called out her name from behind. Scrunching her brows, she turned around but couldn't see anyone. Gulping in nervousness, she slowly took a step forward. 

"Madam, what happened?" One of the guards inquired. 

Startled by the sudden appearance of the guard, she gasped and leaped backwards, "Oh God, you just scared me." 

"I am sorry, I—" 

"No, it's alright. I just thought someone called out my name so I was checking," she explained. 

Just then Ashton arrived in his car and quickly rolled down the window. "Babe, is everything okay?" 

When she nodded her head, the guard quickly opened the door for her. 

Shrugging away all the negative feelings, she stepped into the car. 

…..

Li mansion. 

"Seriously, I am telling you Liang definitely proposed because Qiang is pregnant," Linyang stated. 

Helplessly shaking his head, Liang retorted, "Hold on, that doesn't even make sense. Why would I propose Kathy just because Qiang is pregnant? Stop shoving your baseless theories on me." 

Zian nodded his head in agreement. "I agree with Liang on this, what you are saying really doesn't make any sense." 

Ignoring Liang's weird expression, Linyang further explained, "He knew that mom will not let him live a peaceful life after she learns about Qiang's pregnancy and if Guang and Qiang get married, mom is gonna never let him stay in peace. So before anything closely related to that could happen, he quickly got engaged with Kathy." 

"Oh please, what about the fact that I love Kathy and I want to spend the rest of my life with her?" he retorted. 

"When did I say that you don't love her? You do but are you trying to tell me that what I just mentioned isn't one of the reasons why you suddenly decided to propose Kathy." 

Looking around, Liang sighed, "Hey, don't mention this in front of Kathy, okay? I don't want her to overthink about this entire situation." 

Widening his eyes in shock, Zixin gasped, "So you really decided to propose her after hearing about Qiang and Guang?" 

"I was already planning the proposal but not so fast. I wanted to do it somewhere around next month but a few things happened so I had to prepone the plan," he explained. 

When everywhere gave Liang a weird look, he frowned, "Hey, I was scared and I didn't want mom to start nagging us to have a kid or get married. And I love her so nothing else really matters." 

"I don't really blame Liang, even I wanted to have a baby after I heard about Qiang's pregnancy." Looking at Zian, Mian added, "I still wanna have one, okay?" 

"What are you guys being so cranky about? Even I am not married, I am not complaining," Huang stated. 

"Because Huiling is still young and your parents are chill, they stopped nagging you after you got in a relationship," Liang retorted. 

"That is not true, mom still nags me for many things and marriage is one of them," Huang explained.

"Alright while we are at it, when are you and Andrew planning to make it official?" Yumi asked Linyang.

Shrugging her shoulders, she chuckled, "We just started dating, what is the rush?"

"What rush?" Andrew inquired before sitting beside Linyang.

"I was just asking Linyang what are your plans of getting settled down," Yumi answered. 

"You mean getting married?" When she nodded her head, Andrew looked at Linyang. "You wanna get married? I just heard that Guang is proposing Qiang today and Liang and Kathy are already engaged, I think it's wedding season right now." 

Cupping Andrew's face, Linyang smiled, "Honey I love but if you ever talk about marriage without a ring in your hand then you can marry yourself." 

"I wouldn't dare to do it without a ring and flowers." 

…..

Guang's car. 

Curling her hands around his biceps, Qiang placed her head on his shoulder. "What are you thinking about?" 

Coming out of his daze, Guang answered, "Just thinking how time passed so quickly. It feels like yesterday we were stuck in that house because of the bad weather and look at us now." Caressing her stomach, he added, "We are having a baby together." 

"Babies." Placing her hand on top of his, she chuckled, "There are two in here, don't forget that we are having twins." 

"Of course, how can I forget that? Did you tell everyone about it?" When Qiang shook her head, he suggested, "Let's surprise them later."

SPECIAL AUTHOR'S NOTE:-

Just giving you all an advance heads up of my upcoming books. ^_^

i) I always wanted to write a fantasy romance book but I kept delaying it thinking I can't pull it off because it's a completely different genre but after lots of thinking and research work, I have decided to start a fantasy romance novel(vampires, werewolves & witches) which will have a modern setting. The plot is unique, interesting and well thought so I hope you all will like it. 

ii) For those who don't like fantasy books, I hope you can give my book a shot but if you don't want to, there is nothing to worry about. I will also start an urban romance book alongside the fantasy one so that all my readers can stay with me. 

iii) The books will be up in January 2021 after I am done with the existing ones. I know there is still time but I am super excited about it.

iv) I hope to see each and every one of you when I start my new book. Most of the readers of this book have been there with me since the very beginning. I hope we can continue this whole moving from one book to another for years to come. 

Much love.

Sofia ♥
