Chapter 903: HOW'S THAT POSSIBLE?
Mu Lan took a nap in the resting room. When she opened her eyes, she found herself in the bed. She rubbed her eyes and got up. She opened the door and peeked outside. It was Mu Liang's office. He was working. There was no one else in the room.
Mu Lan tiptoed and went behind him. Then, she hugged him.
Mu Liang already noticed her as his laptop screen reflected her. He grabbed her arms and turned his face. He kissed her right cheek and asked, "Is your body okay?"
Mu Lan pouted. "I told you to be gentle."
"I was. If I didn't, I would have done it more than once." He looked at her carefully. "Are you feeling okay?" She never told him to be gentle. She didn't even plead for more like before. It made him worried.
Mu Lan rubbed her face against him. She had difficulty speaking. "You see... I'm pregnant."
Mu Liang jumped out of the chair. "What?!" His eyes widened. He couldn't believe his ears. He grabbed her shoulders and asked, "How is that possible?" He always fed her medicine after they made love. There wasn't any possibility for her to be pregnant.
Mu Lan carefully said, "I changed the medicine behind your back. I'm now two months pregnant. You didn't notice up until now because my morning sickness is late."
Mu Liang recalled the time when she almost died. Her scream and cry still haunted him. His face turned pale thinking that she would go through it again. He looked down at her and asked, "How's your body? We just did it..." If he knew that she was pregnant, he wouldn't dare to do it.
Mu Lan assured him saying, "I'm fine. There is nothing to worry about. If anything happened, I wouldn't have been standing here right now."
Mu Liang pulled her closer and buried his face in the crook of her neck. "Why did you do this? Do you want to go through that pain again?"
Mu Lan rubbed his broad back. She said, "When Xiao Ying gave birth to a girl, you took the girl on your own accord. You wanted a girl, didn't you?"
Mu Liang was astonished. He didn't think that she would notice.
Two years ago, Mu Liang and Mu Lan went back to Paris with the rice balls. That's when they heard that Qi Ying was unexpectedly pregnant. It was hard for her to study and take care of the family while she was pregnant. As a result, Mu Lan went to Italy with the rice balls to help her friend with household duty. Rice balls had enough time to spend their time with their great-grandpa.
Mu Liang gave his brother Mu Feng hard times since his wife was taken away from him. Mu Feng also regretted. He didn't want to pressure Qi Ying like that.
Nine months later, Qi Ying gave birth to a boy. He was named Mu Deming. In the meantime, Qi Ying also finished school. Mu Feng and Qi Ying married six months after Deming was born. A year later, Qi Ying got pregnant again and gave birth to a girl recently. She was named Yuanjun.
Mu Liang, Mu Lan, and rice balls went to visit Qi Ying in the hospital. Mu Lan noticed that Mu Liang took the newborn and carried her for a long time. Only then she realized that Mu Liang wanted a girl.
Since Yuanjun was the first girl in the Mu Family after three-generation, everyone was happy and grandpa Mu Cheng held a huge party. Everyone was happy that a girl was born in the family.
Mu Liang's arms tightened around Mu Lan. "Just because of that you took this risk! What if it's a boy again?"
Mu Lan laughed. "There's nothing wrong with giving it a try. Hey, there is nothing to worry about. If Xiao Ying could give two children, I can too."
"You already gave birth to four children." Mu Liang sighed. He stepped back a little and told her, "You cannot work in this condition. Let's cancel the plan."
This time, Mu Lan grabbed him. "You cannot do that! I'm not in a serious condition. And I won't work in the morning. Morning sickness won't bother my work. Also, don't you want to keep me close to you while I'm pregnant?"
Mu Liang had a headache. His wife was too willful and stubborn. "I'll contact Lu Feng." He took out his cell phone.
Mu Lan stopped him. "I contacted Pedro. He is coming to Paris."
Mu Liang turned off his laptop, grabbed her hand and pulled her with him.
Mu Lan was puzzled. "Are we leaving?"
Mu Liang curtly replied, "Yes."
"But you have work to do." Mu Lan turned to look at the pile of files on the table.
"I'll finish them later. I'll send you back first." Mu Liang said.
Mu Lan sighed. Her husband was a worrywart.
Two months later, Li Shen's father Li Han called Mu Lan. "Xiao Lan, how have you been?"
Mu Lan replied, "Uncle, I'm okay. I hope you are doing well."
Li Han replied, "I'm old and alone. I'm the way I'm supposed to be. I called you because I want to give you a share of the Li Corporation-"
Mu Lan sighed. "Uncle, we already talked about this. I don't need it."
Li Han pleaded, "Xiao Lan if I can't give it to you, my consciousness will kill me. Won't you let this old man die in peace."
'It doesn't matter how you die.' Of course, she didn't say that out loud. She said, "I'll bring my eldest son within three days. You can give the share to him. Count me out."
Li Han was delighted. "Alright! I'll arrange the papers right away."
In the evening, Mu Lan told Mu Liang about her plan. Mu Liang directly said, "I won't allow you to go to China with Lian (rice ball number one) all by yourself."
Mu Lan said, "I won't go alone. Hugo will accompany us. We are also taking rice ball number one's two bodyguards."
