Chapter 187 - You're a prince!

The atmosphere in the car during the trip back to the hospital was frosty, save for the chattering between the two toddlers who were oblivious to the problems of a.d.u.l.ts. 

"Uncle Han!" Little Monkey suddenly called out. 

"Yes, princess?" Han Ye replied; his mind was preoccupied with what had happened earlier, and so, he wanted some kind of distraction to stop himself from thinking further into it. 

"I'm a princess too!" Mo Yuan said as he raised his hands and looked at the back of Han Ye's head. 

"You're a prince!" Little Monkey giggled. 

"Wanna be princess!" Mo Yuan pouted. 

"No!"

"Yes!"

"No!" 

They then threw things around, completely ignoring Xiao Lei who was sitting between them. Han Ye took a quick glance at the rearview mirror and saw that she was still fuming. Her arms were folded, her eyes were slightly red, and she was staring out of the window angrily. 

Even when one of the toddlers threw an empty juice box around, which accidentally landed on her lap, she merely brushed it off her lap without saying anything. 

Han Ye sighed and shook his head. He then said in a gentle voice, "Little Monkey, Yuan Yuan... Stop fighting... Otherwise, I'll tell your daddies, and your daddies won't let you guys play together anymore. Do you guys want that?" 

The toddlers exchanged glances before puffing their cheeks out, making them look like cute little hamsters. They wanted to argue more, but they did not want to anger their fathers to the point of them being banned from playing together anymore. Not that their fathers would be angry at them, but there was no point in pushing their buttons.

And so, with a collective sigh, they decided to call it a truce by looking out of the window listlessly. 

"Little Monkey?" 

The toddler ignored Han Ye. She loved him, but even so, she was upset that he threatened to tell on her. 

Han Ye chuckled softly. "Little Monkey, you wanted to ask me something earlier? If you don't want to talk to me now, then I'm not going to answer you if you ask me later, alright?"

"No!" Little Monkey snapped. She then asked in an adorable tone, "My baby here?" 

"You mean your baby brother?"

She threw her hands up in the air as she yelled excitedly, "Yes!"  

Han Ye smiled. "Yeah... He's here... Your daddy wants you to see him, that's why he's asking me to take you back to the hospital." 

"Yay! I'm big sister!" Little Monkey cheered. She then looked at Mo Yuan and gloated, "I'm big sister now!" 

"I want to be a big brother!" Mo Yuan pouted. He then sighed and said sadly, "But Mummy's sick..."

Han Ye took a quick glance at Mo Yuan before saying, "Your Mummy will get well soon... When she's better, you can ask her and your daddy for a little brother or sister..."

Mo Yuan nodded, but even so, there was a sad expression on his face, as if he knew that it was impossible for his parents to give him a baby brother or sister. He did not understand how sick his mother was, but he knew that it was bad...

How could it be good?

If he wanted to see his mother, he had to tell his father, and they had to go to this place far away from home, where his mother lived in with other people like her... and there, he was not allowed to be with her alone. 

Han Ye glanced at him briefly before shaking his head. "A two-year-old shouldn't have that kind of expression," he murmured softly.

Angela Zhang, who was sitting beside him, asked, "What kind of expression?" 

Han Ye smiled politely at her before shaking his head slowly. "Nothing." 

There was no point letting out people know about the things that happened in the Mo Family. Even if the Mo Family was unimportant to the eyes of the Du Family, but the fact that Mo Shaoyun was entangled with Jane Chu meant that everything that would affect Jane Chu would affect Kai Xin's mood... which would then affect DX's mood.

And ultimately, the one who had to suffer from the brunt of his wrath would be Han Ye.  

When he pulled over at the drop-off area at the hospital, Lu Ziyan and Kai An were already waiting outside for them. Han Ye had sent a message to Lu Ziyan earlier asking for help with the toddlers. 

Once he parked at a safe zone, Han Ye got down of the car and helped the toddlers to get down first before handing them to Lu Ziyan and Kai An. He gave Little Monkey to Kai An, who immediately hugged her tightly, and Mo Yuan to Lu Ziyan. 

"I want sit on move chair too!" Little Monkey protested as she tried to squirm down from her uncle's arms. 

Kai An pouted. "Aww, my cute little niece... Don't you want your cute uncle anymore?" 

Little Monkey blinked, and a few seconds later, she gave him a firm and resolute, "No." 

Kai An's face turned dark. "You're just like your mum... Once there's another hot guy around, you'll dump me just like that!" 

He then pretended to cry by placing the back of his hand against his eyes and making sob sounds.

Having been used to his fake tears, Little Monkey merely rolled her eyes and giggled. She then placed her chubby hands on Kai An's cheeks as she played along. "Don't be sad... I love you!"

Kai An smiled and placed a kiss on her forehead before saying happily, "Aww, I'm all good now... Here, go sit on your Uncle Ziyan's lap with Yuan Yuan." 

He then placed her on Lu Ziyan's lap.

Han Ye watched as Xiao Lei got out of the car, took the toddlers' bags, and then went to stand next to Lu Ziyan without even saying a word to him. At the same time, he did not want to talk to her; at least, he was not interested in talking to her right now. There was something else that he had to do first; something that he really did not want to do. 

"Are you joining us, Han Ye?" Kai An asked. "He's really cute! If you don't move fast enough, my brother-in-law is going to keep the baby on lockdown. He was already annoyed with how Callum kept trying to hold his son." 

Han Ye glanced at Xiao Lei briefly before looking at Kai An. "I'm sending Angela back first," Han Ye said. "I have something to do later, so I'll come to visit the baby tomorrow... Please send my regards to President Du and Madam President Du. Tell them I'll come with a big angpow tomorrow."

Kai An shrugged. "Alright then, your loss." 

Han Ye then went to Little Monkey and Mo Yuan and crouched down before them. He then caressed their heads and said, "Bye, Little Monkey, Mo Yuan, I'll see you guys soon." 

"Not going in?" Mo Yuan asked with a curious expression. 

"No. I have some work to do. Have fun..."

Little Monkey pouted but she merely waved her hand as she mumbled, "Bye bye..." 

"Bye bye..." Mo Yuan did the same thing. 

After Han Ye left, Lu Ziyan, who was wheeling back into the hospital with two kids on his laps, looked up at Xiao Lei. She had been unnaturally quiet since earlier, which was unlike her. Normally, she would greet him with a smile and would reserve the cold treatment for Han Ye only. 

"Is everything alright, Xiao Lei?" Lu Ziyan finally asked when they were in the lift by themselves.
