Mo Chen looked at Shen Yao and said, "I didn't dye my hair blonde. My hair's natural color is yellow."
Mo Chen said this with a hint of grievance in his voice.
Shen Yao looked at Mo Chen's hair color with confusion. "Did you dye that black color?"
Mo Chen nodded. After all, he was in charge of the entire Mo Corporation. With a Chinese face but blonde hair, it would indeed make people look down on him.
Later, he made the group stronger and bigger, so others no longer dared to underestimate him. However, having gotten used to black hair, he didn't stop dyeing it.
Last time, when he was abroad, he had just cut his hair, and that's when she saw his original blonde hair.
"Don't dye your hair anymore. That look suits you very well."
Shen Yao wasn't lying. If the black-haired Mo Chen looked handsome and sunny, then the blonde-haired Mo Chen was simply like a doll, incredibly adorable!
"Okay."
Mo Chen agreed readily, clearly aware of Shen Yao's tendency to be attracted to good looks. He didn't care if Shen Yao was only interested in his "beauty"; as long as he could keep her, that was all that mattered!
Thus, the two of them naturally got together. On their first day as a couple, Shen Yao immediately informed her family.
After an initial period of difficulty accepting it, when they saw Mo Chen revert to his original hair color, he looked just like an underage boy.
What a sin! They had to admit that their Yao Yao wasn't at a disadvantage! An older cow grazing on tender grass, and this older cow was no ordinary one!
Mo Chen naturally took the palm-leaf fan from Shen Yao's hand and gently fanned her.
Shen Yao leaned against Mo Chen's shoulder, drowsily drifting off, when suddenly she jolted. "Hiss!"
Shen Yao exclaimed, and her sleepiness vanished instantly.
"What's wrong?" Mo Chen quickly put down the fan and supported Shen Yao's body. He saw her stomach moving.
"Uncle! Aunt!"
Mo Chen's shout was loud, causing Shen Dad and Shen Mom, who were already preparing to sleep, to quickly put on their shoes and run out.
Upon coming out, they also heard the doors of the two rooms upstairs open. This was because the tone of Mo Chen's call was very unusual!
"Oh no, is Yao Yao going into labor?!"
Shen Mom's question successfully made the entire Shen family anxious and a little flustered.
"Yao Yao is only nine months pregnant! How could she go into labor now?" Shen elder brother and the others were very worried.
Ten months of pregnancy, ten months of pregnancy, and now only nine months, why was she going into labor?
"Oh, twins are different from single births. Twins usually go into labor early!" Shen Mom said, then hurried back to her room to change.
Shen Huaisang reacted swiftly and rushed upstairs. Shen elder brother and Shen second brother also hurried up.
After going upstairs, the three saw Shen Yao leaning against Mo Chen, her face contorted in pain. They saw that the fingers gripping Mo Chen's arm had turned white.
"Yao Yao, third brother is here to carry you!"
Shen Huaisang walked directly over and gently lifted Shen Yao. Mo Chen didn't compete with him because his legs were trembling at that moment!
Shen Huaisang carried Shen Yao downstairs and gently placed her on the sofa. Then, the group started to bustle about.
After they had tidied everything up, they saw Mo Chen walking down with a large hospital bag.
Shen Mom quickly directed everyone. "Eldest, hurry up and drive. Second, help carry the things. Third..."
They rushed all the way to the hospital. By this time, Shen Yao was already sweating profusely from the pain.
Damn it!
Why did giving birth hurt so much! Drinking spiritual spring water didn't help, boohoo...
As for Mo Chen, his arms were a sight to behold. Not only were there marks from being pinched, but there were also several bite marks.
The Shen family had initially disapproved of such behavior, but since Mo Chen didn't seem to care, they couldn't say anything.
They headed straight for the obstetrics and gynecology department. Upon seeing the situation, the doctor immediately arranged for hospitalization procedures and began examining Shen Yao.
Blood draw, ultrasound, ECG, fetal heart rate monitoring...
Because they were twins, the Shen family unanimously decided on a cesarean section to spare her more suffering.
Shen Mom knew the pain of childbirth, and moreover, she had previously understood that natural birth for twins carried greater risks.
"Pregnant woman's family, please sign!"
After Shen Yao was wheeled into the delivery room, a nurse handed them several pre-operative risk disclosure forms for signing.
The entire family, seeing the extensive list of risks presented, could barely stand.
"Nurse, nurse, why are there so many dangerous items?"
The nurse also noticed their concern and quickly reassured them, "This is just a matter of probability, the chances of it happening are very small. Please sign quickly so we can arrange the surgery."
Although they were told it was a matter of probability, they were still very worried.
Shen Dad took the pen and was about to sign when the nurse asked, "Have the pregnant woman's husband sign."
Everyone present was stunned. Mo Chen wanted to sign, but he and Shen Yao were not married; he was not considered a husband, just a boyfriend in name only.
The nurse glanced at Mo Chen knowingly, then thought of Shen Yao's appearance just now. Sigh, perhaps the child was too young, and they hadn't gotten their marriage certificate yet.
So, she reluctantly handed the pen to Shen Dad. "What is your relationship to the pregnant woman?"
"I am her father."
The nurse, holding the signed consent form, turned and entered the operating room again.
The entire group, except for Ning Min, who had to take care of the little chubby kid at home, was there anxiously waiting. Shen Huaimin even had to reply to his wife's messages from time to time.
Tonight, the Shen family was destined for a sleepless night.
The surgery took a full two hours. When the operating room light finally went out, a nurse pushed out two incubators.
"Shen Yao's family, Shen Yao's family."
"Here, here."
The crowd surged forward, surrounding the incubators, inside which were two tightly swaddled babies.
"The surgery was very smooth. It's a boy and a girl. The girl is the elder, born at 11:18 PM, weighing 3.3 kilograms. The boy is the younger, born at 11:23 PM, weighing 2.4 kilograms. The babies are in good condition. Please have one family member follow me. The mother will be brought out shortly, and a family member will need to wait here."
The nurse finished speaking in one breath and then pushed the incubators away. Shen Huaijin and Jiang Qingqing followed her, while the others waited for Shen Yao.
Ten minutes later, Shen Yao was finally wheeled out. Due to the anesthesia, she was asleep.
As they pushed Shen Yao back to the ward, they looked at the room, which resembled a hotel suite. The Shen family once again felt fortunate about Mo Chen's insistence on a single room.
A person who has given birth needs quiet rest, and sharing a ward with others is ultimately not conducive to recovery.
