Chapter 1198: Gu Ran's Tender Paradise
The evening glow filtered through the sheer curtains, bathing the presidential suite in a soft orange-pink hue.
The air was still filled with the ambiguous atmosphere left by their passionate encounter, mixed with Gu Ran's faint perfume, creating a captivating scent.
The bedding was scattered haphazardly, and their clothes were strewn on the floor beneath the bed, creating an atmosphere of languid intimacy.
With a satisfied look on her face, Gu Ran's skin was flushed with an alluring pink blush, like a ripe peach.
She nestled weakly in Lin Lang's broad embrace, her head resting on his warm chest, her ear close to the steady, powerful beat of his heart. The sound was like the most reassuring melody, allowing her to relax completely.
Her arms gently encircled Lin Lang's waist and abdomen, her fingertips unconsciously tracing circles on his abdominal muscles, feeling the burning heat emanating from his body.
Lin Lang really wanted to have a cigarette afterward, but considering that Gu Ran was trying to conceive, he gave up the idea.
After resting for a long time, Gu Ran finally recovered.
Her face was flushed, her eyes still misty with tears, and she looked up at Lin Lang's sharply defined jawline, her voice soft and expectant.
"Boss, we've been working so hard to conceive today, I think I'm pregnant, right?"
Lin Lang looked down at the beautiful woman in his arms, his eyes filled with doting smiles.
He stretched out his long, slender fingers and gently brushed away the stray strands of hair from her forehead. His fingertips traced her smooth, warm skin as he tenderly replied, "I've calculated that you'll definitely be pregnant with our baby after today."
Upon hearing this, Gu Ran's eyes instantly lit up, as if they were filled with a sky full of stars.
She snuggled closer to Lin Lang, rubbing her cheek against his chest, feeling his strong heartbeat, and a sweet smile appeared on her lips: "Really? That's wonderful!"
Lin Lang gently placed his hand on Gu Ran's smooth, fragrant shoulder, caressing it lightly as he said tenderly, "Of course it's true. From today onwards, you can stay home and rest during your pregnancy. You can summon your clone to handle company matters."
Gu Ran chuckled and said, "Luckily, you shared your ability to summon clones with me, otherwise, how could I, the steward of the harem, possibly manage to keep up with everything every day!"
Lin Lang lowered his head and placed a kiss on Gu Ran's forehead, his breath brushing against her hair. "Baby, you've had a tough time all these years!"
Gu Ran's smile deepened. She raised her head, her eyes sparkling with longing, and tightly grasped Lin Lang's hand.
“I didn’t realize I liked children before. But after Nuo’er and Luo’er were born, they called me ‘Auntie’ every day, and I started to envy my older sister for being able to give birth to such a cute pair of twins.”
Lin Lang held Gu Ran's hand tightly, his fingertips caressing her soft palm. "Silly girl, the seed of our love has been planted. After ten months of pregnancy, you will be blessed with a son and a daughter!"
"Mmm!" Gu Ran nodded vigorously, her cheeks flushed with excitement. "Our child will definitely be adorable. I want to braid her hair into pretty little braids, dress her in a pink princess dress, and make her look like a little fairy."
"Let's dress our son in a handsome little suit and turn him into a little gentleman."
Lin Lang looked at Gu Ran's beaming face, his eyes overflowing with doting affection.
He raised his hand and gently pinched Gu Ran's flushed cheeks, feeling their softness and smoothness: "Our daughter will definitely be as beautiful as you."
Gu Ran couldn't help but laugh out loud, and said sweetly with a look of longing, "Just thinking about what the two little babies will look like after they are born makes me feel so happy!"
Lin Lang lowered his head and kissed Gu Ran's lips gently and affectionately. "I will do everything I can to give you and the babies the best life."
Hearing these heartwarming words, Gu Ran felt a slight tingling in her nose and her eyes welled up with tears.
She hugged Lin Lang tightly around the waist, buried her face in his chest, and said in a slightly choked voice, "Boss, it's so good to have you. Meeting you is the luckiest thing that has ever happened to me."
Lin Lang felt the beauty trembling in his arms, and his arms tightened suddenly, holding her firmly in his embrace, trying his best to give Gu Ran as much security as possible.
He gently patted Gu Ran's beautiful back and softly comforted her, "Silly girl, meeting you is my greatest fortune."
The room was quiet, with only the sounds of their intertwined breathing and heartbeats.
The rosy light streamed in through the gaps in the curtains, illuminating the two of them and outlining a warm and sweet silhouette.
Gu Ran gradually calmed down in Lin Lang's arms. She raised her head, her eyes still slightly moist, but still sparkling with happiness: "Will our baby look more like you or more like me?"
Lin Lang looked into Gu Ran's eyes and said earnestly, "If it's a son, I'll be as thoughtful and considerate as you; if it's a daughter, I'll be as charming and lovely as you."
“I actually hope they’ll resemble you more,” Gu Ran smiled, her fingertips lightly tracing Lin Lang’s eyebrows and eyes. “Our son should be as tall and handsome as you, and as outstanding as you. Our daughter should look a lot like Nuo’er and Luo’er!”
“Yes, after all, their mothers are twins, so their genes are quite similar.” Lin Lang took Gu Ran’s hand and gently kissed it.
Gu Ran smiled sweetly and said, "No matter which of us the two babies resemble, they are our most precious treasures. We will accompany them as they grow up, watching them go from babbling to taking their first steps, from being ignorant to becoming mature and steady."
Lin Lang nodded with a smile, a picture of a happy family of four already appearing in his mind.
Gu Ran imagined what it would be like for her baby to call "Mommy" for the first time, imagined their stumbling steps as they learned to walk, imagined them carrying their little schoolbags on their first day of school... Every imagined scene warmed her heart.
"Honey," Gu Ran nestled in Lin Lang's arms, her voice as soft as a feather, "after I get pregnant, could you spend more time with me?"
"Okay." Lin Lang lowered his head and kissed her forehead, his tone incredibly gentle.
Gu Ran's heart was instantly filled. She hugged Lin Lang tightly, feeling his warmth and breath, and happiness overflowed in her heart like a tide.
She knew that with Lin Lang by her side, she would not be afraid of any difficulties she might encounter in the future.
“Boss, I love you,” Gu Ran looked up and kissed Lin Lang’s lips. The kiss was tender and affectionate, filled with love and dependence. “I love you so much, and I love our baby who is coming soon.”
Lin Lang responded to Gu Ran's kiss, holding her tightly in his arms as if he wanted to meld her into his life.
His kiss was filled with passionate emotion, anticipation for the future, and deep appreciation for the person before him.
After a long while, he slowly released Gu Ran, his forehead pressed against hers, their breaths mingling, his eyes deep and focused: "I love you too, baby. I love our soon-to-be-born children."
With a sweet smile on her face, Gu Ran unconsciously stroked her flat stomach and said with longing, "I can't wait to meet my son and daughter. How about we travel back in time to after they are born?"
Lin Lang looked down at Gu Ran's eager expression, his eyes filled with doting affection and tenderness: "Okay!"
When Gu Ran heard Lin Lang agree, her eyes shone like stars dipped in honey. She instantly sat up from the soft bedding, her movements so swift that they brought with them a sweet fragrance.
"Great!" She clapped her hands excitedly, turned around and reached for the stylish office suit hanging at the foot of the bed. "I'll get dressed right now, let's go!"
Lin Lang leaned against the headboard, watching Gu Ran hurriedly fasten her clothes, a indulgent smile appearing in his eyes. He teased, "Look how anxious you are, like you're afraid the babies will run away."
"This is to see our baby, how can I not be anxious?" Gu Ran glared at Lin Lang, her cheeks flushed with excitement, her fingers flying between the buttons of her clothes, the hem of her silk skirt brushing against the edge of the bed.
"Honey, hurry up and get dressed! Don't dawdle, I can't wait to see the two little ones!" Gu Ran's voice was filled with barely concealed excitement.
"Alright, alright." Lin Lang chuckled softly, got up, and started getting dressed.
Gu Ran quickly put on her stockings and secretary's skirt suit. She sat in front of the dressing table and carefully combed her long hair in front of the mirror. Her black hair was smooth and fell over her shoulders, looking lazy yet charming.
She smiled at herself in the mirror, her eyes full of anticipation: "Honey, I think I look good with my hair down like this, right? Is this the kind of mom the babies would like?"
Lin Lang was already dressed neatly, and the well-tailored black suit made him look even more upright. He walked behind Gu Ran, gently placed his hands on her shoulders, and lowered his head to place a light kiss on the top of her head.
"Beautiful, so beautiful it's making my nose bubble with snot." His voice was deep and gentle, with a hint of a smile.
"Ugh, you used that 'so beautiful you're bubbling with snot' phrase to compliment me again! I'm ignoring you!" Gu Ran playfully patted Lin Lang's hand, her tone full of coquettishness.
"Haha..." Lin Lang laughed heartily, looking at the charming Gu Ran in the dressing mirror with eyes full of doting.
Gu Ran stood up from the dressing chair, her eyelashes fluttering like butterfly wings. She turned and took Lin Lang's hand, smiling gently and sweetly, "Darling, are you ready?"
Lin Lang gently pinched the tip of Gu Ran's pert nose and replied with a smile, "Ready."
Gu Ran smiled sweetly with her eyes narrowed, threw herself into Lin Lang's arms, and hugged his waist tightly. Suddenly, a faint golden light burst forth from her palms, and a warm halo flowed through her fingers, enveloping the two of them in a soft light curtain.
"Let's set off now!" Gu Ran said softly, the light at her fingertips suddenly tightened, and with a soft "whoosh," time and space were like folded silk, instantly completing the crossing.
The timeline jumps directly to late September 2016.
When the light and shadows faded, what came into Gu Ran's view was a warm and elegant nursery.
Sunlight streamed through the white lace curtains, dappling the soft carpeted floor, and a faint milky scent filled the air.
Two cribs were placed side by side in the nursery, and inside lay two adorable little ones, just over a month old, who were Gu Ran's twins, a boy and a girl.
"Wow, honey, look! It's our baby!"
Gu Ran's breath caught in her throat, and she instinctively slowed her pace as she approached the crib, unable to contain her excitement.
The baby girl was wearing a pink cotton onesie. Her little face was as pink as a ripe peach, and her eyelashes were long and thick, like two small fans.
A pair of big, dark eyes blinked curiously as she stared at Gu Ran, her little mouth slightly open, making soft "ee-ya" sounds.
The baby boy was dressed in a light blue outfit, and his features vaguely resembled Lin Lang's. His chubby little arms were waving around, and his little legs would kick occasionally. His little feet were white and tender, with his toes curled up, making him incredibly cute.
"Oh, my little darling..." Gu Ran covered her mouth, her voice instantly choked up, her eyes reddened, and glistening tears swirled on her eyelashes, but she couldn't bear to let them fall, afraid of disturbing the little angel in front of her.
Her heart felt as if it were being soaked in warm water, completely softened, and all her expectations and longings erupted at this moment.
As if sensing her mother's presence, the baby girl suddenly kicked her little legs, waved her little fists, and stretched them out in her direction, making soft, adorable "ya-yi" sounds that could melt your heart.
The baby boy also wiggled his little body, turned his little head, locked his big eyes on Gu Ran, pursed his little mouth, and smiled very cutely, revealing two shallow dimples.
Gu Ran could no longer hold back her tears, which slid down her cheeks. She carefully reached out and gently touched her daughter's soft little face with her fingertips, the touch as delicate as a cloud.
"Baby, Mommy's here!" Her voice was trembling with tears, yet full of tenderness.
