Chapter 524: Chapter 524: See If There’s Still Any Smell of Smoke


"They are so beautiful..."


Ye Zi was utterly mesmerized, squatting in front of the crib, staring at the two children without blinking.


"Yi..."


The child lying on the right, with tiny lips moving slightly, let out a soft sound.


The other child lying beside was well-behaved at first, but upon hearing this cooing noise,


suddenly burst into a sad cry.


"Wah..."


"...Wah wah!"


Ye Zi hurriedly reached out to gently soothe him, "Oh, little cutie, don’t cry, don’t cry now..."


"Wah..."


Strangely, the child who was crying hard immediately stopped.


Eyes roaming, lips gaping open, although with some difficulty, still managed to let out a sound: "Yiya..."


"Awww, so adorable!"


Ye Zi’s heart melted, head over heels in love with these two genetically blessed babies.


Touching this one, then that one, her eyes weren’t prepared to look away for even a moment.


Shen Cheng was sitting beside, watching these two identical children, a smile inevitably curling at the corners of her mouth.


Suddenly having two important little ones in her life, it all seemed so surreal to her.


As if the pregnancy and delivery process was but a single day.


She hadn’t even been mentally prepared yet, and now she had two little bundles of joy.


"My beauty, don’t just smile there, can you tell which one is the older brother and which is the younger brother?"


Ye Zi scrutinized for quite some time but couldn’t see any difference between the two children; from any angle they looked almost identical.


From the birth of the children up until now, Shen Cheng had only seen them twice.


Once in the delivery room, and once today during the day.


If she had to distinguish them by looks alone, she surely couldn’t do it.


"Check out the wristbands, they have labels marked 1 and 2. Number 1 is the older brother, number 2 is the younger brother."


The doctor had explained during the day that to accurately differentiate between the children, they adopted this method.


Only in this way, it was ensured that there would be no mix-ups during examinations or feeding.


Upon hearing this, Ye Zi gently picked up one child’s little hand, and glanced at the wristband.


"Number 2, the one on the right is the younger brother."


Having said this, she confirmed the other child’s wristband as well.


The one lying on the left is number 1, the one on the right is number 2.


Only then did Shen Cheng carefully examine both children, failing to spot any differences in any of the visible parts.


As a result, it dawned on her a very serious issue...


What if, in the future, she can’t tell them apart and ends up feeding the same child twice?


After visiting the children, Shen Cheng and Ye Zi returned to the ward.


Helping Shen Cheng lie down on the bed, Ye Zi poured a glass of water for her.


Shen Cheng tried the temperature of the water, and finding it not too hot, sipped a little.


Ye Zi stayed with her for more than an hour in the room, only leaving after getting a call from Qin Jin.


Just a few minutes after Ye Zi’s departure, Shi Yu returned, a faint scent of tobacco lingering on him.


"How much did you smoke?"


Shen Cheng glanced sideways at him, her tone mild.


"Just one."


Shi Yu was always moderate, never indulging in cigarettes or alcohol, though he would partake.


With that, he promptly took off his black shirt, bare-chested, he walked into the bathroom.


The sound of water rushing soon started, and he quickly came out after his shower, dried his hair, and directly lay down beside Shen Cheng.


Without asking for permission, he pulled Shen Cheng into his embrace, his magnetic voice sounding: "Smell and tell me if there’s still a scent of smoke."
