"Our Little Duo has agreed to have a baby, and for that, we have to work hard."

Ye Mo was beyond excited to hear that. "Liu, are you sure about this?"

He knew Liu Duo had always been reluctant about having a baby. Every time he mentioned it she would flip out. Now that she had changed her mind, how could he not be excited?

Liu Duo and Liu Ran could hear the excitement in his voice, and shot glances at the two men.

"Sis, what is Brother Mo so happy about?" Liu Ran asked, confused.

Liu Duo shook her head. "Who knows? He's always freaking out like that. Ignore him."

Ye Liu peered over at Liu Duo, who had noticed them. "Mo, can you pipe down a little?"

On the other hand, after listening to Ye Liu, Ye Ling's cheeks began to heat up and flush red. Similar to Ye Mo, he was more than happy to hear the news.

He respected Liu Duo and what she wanted. Previously, he knew she was not ready for a baby so he never mentioned it to her.

"I can't! I'm so happy!" Ye Mo's mouth curved into a broad, unrestrained smile, "Liu, should we continue our punishment in the woods tonight, or..."

He paused. He sneaked a peek at his wife, who was chatting with Liu Ran at the moment, and added, "Or do we make up for lost time with our wife?"

Ye Liu merely laughed, not saying anything more. Ye Ling stayed silent too, his head hanging low, his cheeks and ears red all over.

Liu Duo suddenly sneezed. "Ah-choo! Who's talking about me behind my back?" She rubbed her nose and mumbled to herself.

"Sis, did you catch a cold?" Liu Ran asked, concerned.

"No, I didn't. Let's get back inside. It's almost time for a bath, then off to bed with you." Liu Duo led him into the house.

The sky was beginning to darken.

Ye Yang exited the kitchen and announced to them, "The water's ready."

Ye Mo had intended to press Ye Liu for more information, but when he saw Liu Duo heading towards them and heard Yang's announcement, he stopped talking and made a note to ask later.

"Dear," he called to her, a smile hanging on his face.

He usually came with a domineering poker face, as though he owned the place.

Liu Duo eyed him once, not sure what he was so smug about.

Liu Ran, however, pointed out the obvious. "Sis, who knew that Brother Mo could look so dashing with a smile instead of that long face he used to have."

He had been living at this house for several months now. Although he was not at home during the weekdays, this was the first time he'd ever seen Ye Mo smile. And it was clearly a happy one too.

Liu Duo and Ye Liu could not contain their laughter. How often had Ye Mo been pulling a long face to give Liu Ran such an impression?

Ye Mo smiled too. He thought it was sweet of Liu Ran to say so.

Ye Mo, on the other hand, was not sure how he should react. Was he meant to rejoice or rage over it? He thought to himself, is this brat complimenting or criticizing me? Do I have a long face every day? Have I always been handsome, or have you just noticed?

He'd never realized that he had been pulling a long face every day. He considered himself to be like Yang. They just did not smile often!

"Ran Er, have you just noticed?" Liu Duo patted him on the head and went on to mock Ye Mo. "Your Brother Mo is pretty dashing. By a cricket's standards, that is. Haha..."

Ye Ling burst out laughing at that joke, whereas Ye Liu laughed even louder.
