CHAPTER 415

"Thanks, Li Jing, Ye Cheng. Good evening. Apologies for dropping by unannounced." Tang Zixin dipped his head down a bit to show his sincerest apology before moving to the next cushion to sit down.

"You are welcome. I am amazed that you decided to personally visit me, I mean us, today."

A smirk appeared on Tang Zixin's face that instant. "Well, I realized I had not come yet to officially give my warm congratulations to the newly wedded couple and so I did."

"Thanks for that thought. It means a lot," Li Jing smiled brightly at him.

He did not need someone to tell him, he could already see the change in her eyes and behaviour and even from Ye Cheng's behaviour, although he still looked the same to Tang Zixin.

'I am glad you have found your love back, Li Jing. I do not know how it happened but the how doesn't matter now. All that matters is that you found joy, love and happiness with him. I wish you the best dear and even though I lost you, I would still root for your happiness each day. My only wish is that I will be able, God so gracious, give me a wife like you.'

Tang Zixin was so lost in his thoughts that he failed to realize Ye Cheng was watching him admire his wife in his presence and be lost in his own world from it. It wasn't until he cleared his throat that Tang Zixin got pulled out from whatever state of mind he ventured into.

"Ahem!" Tang Zixin's head sapped quickly to her side and smiled apologetically to Ye Cheng with a face of, you cannot really blame me, she is gorgeous.

"Yes?"

Well honestly speaking, Ye Cheng couldn't blame him. At times he found himself doing the very same thing. Even though she was his, he could not stop himself when he woke up at night to just concentrate his eyes on her glorious beauty.

"Hehe… I understand. Thanks for the good wishes. It means a lot."

"Yeah. Oh and I also brought with me, your wedding present."

Li Jing's eyes immediately shot wide open at the mention of a wedding gift. This was going to be her very first official wedding gift aside from what Ye Cheng and Ying Rong gave to her. "Seriously?"

"Yes. Let me ask my driver to bring it in. I believe I can at least support with something." His face lit up at the thought of the wrapped wedding present but quickly hid it when he saw Ye Cheng's quizzical look.

"Relax buddy, I am not taking her from you," Tang Zixin said defensively.

At first, he had not intended for that to come out loud but when it did, he could just shrug at Ye Cheng and await the possessive CEO's reply. He got one alright!

"Like heck, you can. She is my lawfully wedded wife," Ye Cheng retorted at him, wrapping his hand around Li Jing's waist.

"And no one is arguing that with you or dragging it with you," Li Jing interrupted. The last thing she wanted was for the two closest males in her life to start a fight with each other.

"Love, who are you supporting? Him or me?"

"None. You two just… argh do not act like kindergarten alright. Sigh! Now, where were we? I am eager to check out our present."

"Relax babe. Patience."

"It is alright. I love seeing this side of her, her carefree nature. It is one of a kind."

"I know, right."

For a brief moment there, both men looked like they had just seen the most beautiful flower in the world. They looked at her with bright mesmerizing eyes with a lovely smile still decorating their faces.

It was more or less to Li Jing that they looked…

'SPELLBOUND!'

"AHEM!" Both men adjusted in their seats and turned their gaze away quickly. "Okay."

KNOCK! KNOCK!

Their attention went straight for the door when they heard the sound and waited for the maid to usher the person in.

"Oh my goodness." She clasped a hand over her lips the minute the driver walked in with a very big package.

"Tang Zixin." Reluctantly, she peeled her eyes off the man and the present and looked at Tang Zixin with so much joy in her eyes like a kid who just got her first birthday present.

In as much as he knew she was eager to yell or scream and all like a kid wanting to pounce on a new teddy but waiting for her father's approval to pounce on it.

Tang Zixin did not say anything. It was the first time he was actually giving her a gift and he was glad he could watch her behaviour through it all.

"Bring it over," Tang Zixin instructed his driver without peeling his eyes off of her.

Her breathing hitched and her heart thudded loudly in her chest but she still did not say anything and waited earnestly. BADUM! BADUM!

As soon as his driver dropped it on the floor beside him, Tang Zixin stood up to address them. "It is with great joy that I present this gift to you. I wish above all things that you prosper and be in good health to have little Li Jing and Ye Cheng. This is for you."

Remembering her husband was still there, Li Jing looked at him, expecting his go-ahead to actually accept the present, Tang Zixin brought.

Taking the initiative, ye Cheng stood up with Li Jing and moved closer to Tang Zixin. "Thank you, friend. Thanks always."

"Thanks, Zixin."

"Anytime. You want to open it?"

"Umm…" Both of them looked at each other, not so sure of what to do but in the end, they nodded their approval and Ye Cheng gave Li Jing the go-ahead to pounce on her gift seeing how eager she was earlier.

TIAR! RIP!

In a matter of two minutes, Li Jing had successfully removed all the wrapping paper and moved backwards to where Ye Cheng stood, hugging him from the side as her full attention was placed on the lovely gift received.

Staring right at them, was a nice baby cot alongside some baby necessities, with about ten small baby male toys and female toys each and some baby clothes, both feminine and masculine.

It was like he went to a big shopping for her unborn child, more like children. There were baby clothes of different sizes fr when the baby grew up, leaving Li Jing so much perplexed by his keen sense of detail.

"Oh, before I forget, there are two other gifts though, my other driver would bring them in. It is a baby toy car that he can ride and a table set with cutleries should in case your daughter wants to do a tea party."

Li Jing felt like her ears would explode soon. Did he just go to all those lengths to shop baby things for them when they had only just gotten wedded?

"Tang Zixin!" She yelled out his name in amusement.

"Yes? You do not like them?"

"Yes, we do. It's just… I don't know, it seems too much somehow. You shouldn't have. Right, honey?" She nudged Ye Cheng on his stomach a bit but was shocked to see her husband still staring so hard and lost.

Wow, he was left speechless by his friend. Even he himself wouldn't have expected this or even thought of getting this for someone else.

"Nonsense. It is not enough for a person like you," Tang Zixin began. "The honest truth, I thought of what I could give you but couldn't find one and then, I decided to just buy this when I saw them. Besides, almost everyone wants their union to be blessed with at least a child. Just that I could not pinpoint which you would like and so…"

Pinpointing is one thing but you… It is like you want me to give birth to so many kids."

"Well, it isn't like I could predict what you would give birth to, so I got some things for the two sexes. Anyone that comes out first, gets to enjoy it. Or, it wouldn't be bad to have twins."

0_0

"Relax. Anyways, I do hope they get to wear them."

"Definitely. Thank you so much." She smiled and returned her gaze to her quiet husband who looked like someone who had just seen a ghost. "Honey, hey come back to me," Li Jing whispered before pressing a kiss on his cheek, waking him from his trance.

"I'm sorry dear. Was just…"

"I understand. It is okay to be overwhelmed. I understand. So, I was thinking… why not make him the godfather to our children?' Li Jing whispered into his ears.

"Not bad. If that is what you want, then you have my go ahead,"

"Thanks, honey." This time around she actually kissed him before turning to look at Tang Zixin. "We love it and we too have something for you."
