Chapter 741 - He Has No One but You (2)
In the blink of an eye, it was already the sixth birthday of the Feng twins. The Feng Mansion was filled with chatter and everyone was busy with the preparation for the celebration that night.
The security around the mansion was tighter than ever, and each person going in and out of the property was strictly checked to make sure no one would dare make a scene or ruin the special day of the little buns.
While waiting for night to come, Xiao Bao and Little Star accompanied their grandmother, trying different new clothes Song Huifen brought for the two of them.
Tang Moyu wanted to argue that there were still at least two wardrobes that held her children's still unused clothes from the last time but seeing how the twin excitedly tried and posed in front of her mother-in-law, she decided to leave them be.
Song Huifen took the chance to snap several pictures of her grandchildren, pleased that the two were growing healthy and looking good as days passed by. No wonder her son was now considering another child with Tang Moyu, now that the two little buns were old enough to understand them.
"Mommy Fen, look! I'm a lion! Rawr!" Little Star came out from the bathroom, wearing her new lion onesie.
"Little Star, the lion should be mine." Her twin brother came following behind her, wearing a white bunny onesie.
"Ah, too cute!" Song Huifen fawned over her grandbabies. She wasn't prepared to receive cuteness overload coming from the little buns. "I know it will suit the two of you."
Tang Moyu leaned against the doorway and glanced at her husband as they watched the scene in front of them.
"Are you sure you don't need my help in the kitchen?" she asked Feng Tianyi.
"Darling, you and I know you can't manage your way in the kitchen. I'm afraid you would burn something again." Feng Tianyi sighed in exasperation earning a fierce glare from his wife.
"You could have just told me no," she huffed, slapping his hand away as Feng Tianyi tried to draw her into his arms.
"I'm just joking, Moyu. Please don't take it too hard," he tried to placate her.
Tang Moyu glared at him and scoffed. "But I'm not joking when I say you are taking the couch tonight."
"Ah, Moyu! Please anything but that!" Feng Tianyi complained. This was the first time Tang Moyu kicked him out of their bed since their wedding.
Song Huifen, who overheard the conversation between the couple, laughed behind her hand. It was rare to see her son acting silly like this. While she was amused to see her son and Tang Moyu bickering, the same couldn't be said to Little Star who fell silent once she spotted her parents at the doorway, with her mommy in her daddy's arm.
She was looking at them with a slight frown on her face. It wasn't the first time she'd seen them like this, but Little Star couldn't help but think they were too eager to have another baby.
How could she not know? Her daddy was too vocal these days about wanting another baby with her mommy and kept mentioning how cute her Auntie Qian and Auntie Yaoyao's babies were.
Did this mean that Daddy and Mommy didn't find her cute and loveable anymore? The little girl pondered. But she wasn't ready to share her mommy yet with another sibling.
There was an awkward silence in the twins' room when the three a.d.u.l.ts noticed Little Star's silence. Feng Tianyi released his wife and took a safe distance from Tang Moyu, not wanting to make their daughter cry for being too upset.
"Oh no, darling. Why are you crying? Why is our birthday girl sad?" Song Huifen asked with a gentle tone but Little Star shook her head, rubbing her fists on her eyes as she cried.
Feng Tianyi gave his wife a guilty look, knowing the reason behind their daughter's tears, but Tang Moyu shook her head, deciding to deal with it once and for all. She walked towards Little Star, knelt down and cupped the side of the girl's face to get her attention.
"My cute little lion, why are you crying?" she asked playfully. "Don't you know, Mommy's heart hurts whenever she sees you and Baobao crying? Can you tell Mommy what made you sad?"
Little Star sniffled and looked with teary eyes at her mother.
"B-because Mommy and Daddy don't want me anymore. You want to have another baby, right?" she asked between her tears.
"How can Mommy and Daddy not want our cute Little Star? That's not true. Didn't Mommy promise you that you'll always be her baby no matter if you are a big girl already or not?" Tang Moyu hushed her daughter, trying to calm Little Star down.
"But the baby…"
"You are Mommy's baby—your Yu Gege as well. If your daddy and I got another baby to love, we would be happy too. But if Little Star truly didn't want a younger sibling then we rather not have any if that means seeing you sad and crying," Tang Moyu promised but it didn't sit well with her young daughter.
Little Star had never thought that a new baby would make her parents really happy. She also didn't want to be a bad girl who didn't want others to be happy except her. Her tears ceased at once as she stared thoughtfully at her mother's beautiful face before glancing at her daddy who looked worried at the moment.
"You can have a baby…" she finally conceded much to Feng Tianyi's surprise. Had he heard their daughter right? Did Little Star finally agree to become a big sister?
"But I want a sister as beautiful as you, Mommy! I'll teach her things you've taught me before while Yu Gege would teach her how to count since I'm not good with numbers," she demanded.
