Chapter 443 - 427 Joy
Lu Yun was brimming with pride. Given that her grandmother’s side of the family had a history of triplet births, she had been understandably disappointed not to have even twins the last time around. This time, however, she felt handsomely compensated.
With the thought, her heart bubbled with joy, "It’s just, I wonder if among the three there’s one or maybe two girls? Even if all three are girls, I’d be willing. Daughters are so sweet, and we already have a son. It wouldn’t be a big deal to make Pei Yi grow a bit stronger and take on the role of protecting his three little sisters."
"We don’t need him for that, can’t I protect my own daughters without interference?" Shitou, after his initial ecstasy, laughed and disagreed as soon as he heard Lu Yun’s words, promptly retorting without much thought.
"Boo hoo hoo, and here I thought you’d say the daughters should be left for the rascal to protect, that you’d protect me instead. Turns out daughters are more important than wives after all, huh?"
Lu Yun’s eyes widened, as if in disbelief, as she looked at Shitou, then lowered her head to cover her face, her shoulders starting to tremble with suppressed laughter.
"Stop laughing. Don’t you know that in my heart, a wife is definitely more important than daughters?" Shitou wrapped her in his arms, his face showing a hint of resignation but mostly indulgence and doting.
"You cheat, you used your ’spiritual power’ to peek, didn’t you?" Lu Yun pouted, accusing.
"You underestimate me. With your unprofessional acting, do I need to peek?"
Shitou’s tone was even more resigned, barely able to hide his amusement, "If you’re going to fake cry, at least have some tears. And you even let your laughter slip out several times."
"No fun," Lu Yun simply sulked, "That won’t do, next time you have to pretend to be fooled, okay?"
