Chapter 745 - Uncle Haohao Is Back
It was easier for Iris to cool down than Jin Liwei. She only needed to visualize the patchwork of big, ugly bruises on his back and her worry for him soon alleviated her desire. đŻđđŚđŚđ¤âŻđŤđđ¸đŁđŽđ.đ¸đ°đś
On the other hand, unlike her, he needed to deal with a massive, raging erection which didnât feel like it would be calming down very soon. At this rate, he would probably need to hop under an ice-cold shower to force it to behave. He couldnât bear to use his hand to give himself temporary relief when she wasnât able to do anything for her own desire. That wouldnât be fair to her, and he would only feel terrible about it.
If both of them had to suffer from this abstinence until he healed, then so be it. However, he needed to think of something to tide themselves over during this period of time because both of them would probably go crazy if they continued on like this.
His woman was pregnant and her out-of-whack hormones werenât only causing extreme mood swings but increased sex drive as well. It wasnât only her. He felt like his libido had also shot off the roof after confirming that she was pregnant with his babies. His inner macho man was thumping his chest in triumph at impregnating her. In short, this abstinence was torture to both of them.
His dark, frustrated thoughts were interrupted when she plopped herself down on the nearby chaise longue all of a sudden, looking pale and weak. He immediately rushed to her and knelt in front of her. [This novel is a contracted work with W e b n o v e l . c o m (remove spaces).

"Whatâs wrong, love?" Cold sweat beaded her skin when he touched her. Anxiety made his heart hammer inside his chest. "Ketchup, get someone to prepare the helicopter ASAP! Weâre flying your mom to the hospital. Hurry!"
"On it, Daddy! Meow! Oh Mommy, please be okay! Ketchup is very sorry for running away like a scaredy-cat earlier this morning. Wuwuwu!"
Iris groaned and swatted Jin Liweiâs hands when he attempted to lift her. "Stop it."
"Donât worry, love. Iâll bring you to the hospital right away. Donât be afraid. Everything will be fine. Donât panic."
She glared at him with half-opened eyes. "Tell that to yourself," she muttered. And in a louder voice, she said, "Ketchup, call off the helicopter. Iâm okay."
"Meow? But Mommy—"
"Call it off. Now!"
"Daddy, should Ketchup call off the helicopter? Meow?"
Irisâ expression turned black when she heard the cat AI that she created with great difficulty ask for Jin Liwei for clarification first instead of following her instruction right away. Her voice dropped to several degrees. "I see. Indeed, Ketchup has become a daddyâs girl that sheâs now completely ignoring my words and only listening to her dad."
"Wuwuwu! Donât be angry at Ketchup, Mommy! Ketchup listens to both Mommy and Daddy equally just like how Mommy programmed my cute and mighty system! Meowuwuwu!"
"Dear wife, thatâs not true—"
Iris raised a hand to stop Jin Liwei from speaking. "Hmph! Just call off the helicopter. Iâm really okay. Thereâs no need to take me to the hospital."
His expression hardened. She knew that it meant he would stubbornly insist on taking her to the hospital no matter what if she failed to provide him with a valid reason.
"I said Iâm fine!" she snapped. "Iâm just too hungry that I feel dizzy. I need food, not the hospital! Ugh, youâre all being so annoying!"
Jin Liweiâs hard expression cleared in an instant. "Right. You havenât eaten breakfast yet since you woke up. Sorry, love. I shouldâve have made you eat first before anything else," he said, his voice filled with guilt. "Ketchup, quickly inform the chef to prepare a big meal for your mom and have it delivered to our suite."
"Aye aye, Daddy! Meow!"
Iris mumbled something but Jin Liwei failed to hear it. "What did you say, love?"
"I said I want something with chocolates," she said in a more irritated tone.
He ignored her irritation. In fact, it was as if he didnât notice it. He was now looking at her with a gentle and doting smile. "Ketchup, chocolates."
"Got it, Daddy! Meow!" Five seconds later. "Mommy, Uncle Chef says there are chocolate brownies, chocolate fudge, and champorado available. What does Mommy want from these three choices of desserts?"
"Whatâs champorado?" Iris asked.
"Itâs a sweet Filipino chocolate rice porridge, Mommy. Uncle Dom requested it so Uncle Chef had to search for a recipe online because Uncle Dom is hopeless in the kitchen and couldnât teach Uncle Chef how to make it. Ketchup saw Little Junjun enjoy champorado this morning so it mustâve tasted super-duper good. Uncle Dom also almost cried like a silly baby when he took a bite, saying that it reminded him of his Momsyâs cooking when he was a cute, little boy! Meow!"
"Oh." That made Iris curious. She turned to Jin Liwei. "Did you taste it?"
He shook his head. "I woke up very early today so I ate breakfast alone. That champorado must not have been ready yet at that time."
"I want all three desserts," Iris told Ketchup.
"Okie dokie, Mommy! Meow!"
Just the thought of eating those delicious-sounding desserts was already making Iris salivate. Her mood also improved. She no longer felt as irritated at the Jin Liwei-Ketchup duo as before.
"Looks like our twins have quite the sweet tooth," Jin Liwei commented.
Iris subconsciously rubbed her flat stomach. "You think thatâs the reason why Iâm craving so much chocolates?"
"En. Youâre normally very moderate on how much you eat, especially when it comes to desserts."
She nodded, then sighed. "I shouldâve realized that I might be pregnant when my cravings started. But I only thought that it was normal hunger pangs resulting from overwork."
He moved to sit beside her. "Now we know."
She opened her mouth, about to say something, but was interrupted by Ketchupâs overexcited child voice.
"Mommy, Daddy! Ketchup has something to report! Uncle Haohao is back! Yay yay! Meow~"
Iris froze. Then she panicked.
