Wang He Di was worried.
Yue was acting strange that day. She seemed absent, distracted, tired ...
As they walked down the hospital corridors for the twins' latest ultrasound, Dylan couldn't stop fussing about seeing her so silent.
That was an important day for them and their children ... He wanted to see her happy.
He took her hand and forced her to stop before entering the doctor's room.
"Dylan? What's going on?" Yue asked in surprise.
"Yueyue, is everything ok? You are strange ..."
"Mmh? Yes, everything is ok. I just slept badly. Sorry," she replied.
In fact, the previous night she had not slept a wink. She kept thinking about Wu Yi's proposal ... That evening she should have given him an answer.
Dylan sighed and stroked her face.
"I understand. You know what? I am so excited about today's visit! This is the twenty-eighth week, soon our children will be born !" he exclaimed as his eyes shone with joy.
Yue looked at him and smiled.
"Yeah, so soon," she whispered softly.
"Are you ready?" Dylan asked.
"I'm ready. And you?"
Dylan nodded and shook her hand slightly.
So, hand in hand, they entered the doctor's room.

While the gel that the doctor had smeared on Yue's belly caused some small chills of cold, the girl felt her chest so hot that it melted her heart.
Her children were there in front of her, projected onto the screen of that white room.
They were so small ... And so beautiful ... All curled up on themselves.
She loved them so much and they were yet to be born ... She was sure that her heart would explode as soon as she finally had them in her arms.
She raised her head to see Dylan and from his expression she understood that he too was having her same thoughts.
His eyes were shiny and he had that sweet smile on his face ...
The babies would love him, she was sure.
His love for them was so evident ...
Suddenly, the doctor started talking.
"Babies are healthy, but one of them is slightly smaller than the other. I must warn you: natural childbirth is not a walk ... And if it is a natural twin birth, well ... The risks increase both for you, Miss Shen, and for the kids. To minimize the risks, I recommend a cesarean section. "
The doctor went on to list all the risks and benefits of both natural childbirth and cesarean section.
After allowing Dylan and Yue time to confront, they both decided that cesarean section was the best option.
Together with the doctor they fixed the date of the surgery, which would take place in nine weeks.
The doctor left the room to go and get some documents and left them alone in the room.
While Yue was cleaning her belly and adjusting her shirt, Dylan couldn't help but smile like a madman.
"Yueyue! We have a date! Wow! Now we know when our kids will arrive! It's like it's an appointment! God, I'm too excited! I have to buy something new to wear that day! And fix my hair! They'll have to think they have an handsome dad when they see me for the first time! And what will they wear? And then ... Um, I have to think of a gift! What can I give to a newborn baby? You know it, Yueyue? "
Shen Yue looked at him and laughed.
"Didi! Nine weeks are a lot! You have time!"
"But I have to be ready! I want everything to be perfect! We..."
"I won't let you introduce yourself to them all handsome and shining while I will be a mess!" she muttered.
"But you are beautiful all the time, stupid ... They will have eyes only for you. I will have to do something to get noticed by them" he replied sweetly.
Yue blushed.
Their eyes wedged into each other.
"Nine weeks," she smiled.
"Nine weeks," he repeated.
There was something magical at the moment.
The awareness that soon they would become parents struck them in full, moving them.
Dylan leaned over to her and gave her a tender kiss on the head.
"We have to celebrate. I'll take you to dinner tonight, okay?" he proposed her.
Yue's face lost color ... She hadn't spoken to Dylan about Wu Yi.
"Mmh ... I have an appointment tonight ..."
And this time it was Dylan who turned pale.
"Wu Yi?" he asked.
Yue nodded. Seeing his joy vanish in a second broke her heart.
"He will come to our home tonight ..." she said uncertainly.
"Oh, I see".
Dylan didn't want to appear like a child in front of her, but he felt so sad and angry ... That was their day.
They had just discovered the date of birth of their children (their children!) And Yue would spend the evening with another man.
After their last kiss, the night they looked at the meteor together, he thought he had a chance with her ... That kiss had been so special! But Yue confused him, made him feel insecure ... Wu Yi's shadow was always between them and he felt he was going crazy.
"Didi ... I'm sorry ..." Yue said.
And Dylan didn't know if she was apologizing to him for spending the evening with Wu Yi or for loving him.
"It's okay," he replied, trying to sound calm.
