Gong Yi was still in shock over Hua Mi's belly, the slight bulge.
He had seen pregnant women with big bellies before, but now that it was happening to him, down to the last detail, there was an indescribable and marvelous sense of wonder inside Gong Yi.
His twin daughters were growing bit by bit inside Hua Mi's slender and soft body, and eventually they would be born into the world with cries. The process was overwhelmingly moving.
The miracle of life was truly wondrous and incomparable.
Suddenly, he heard a sound like a dense drumbeat coming from the ultrasound machine.
Frightened, Gong Yi hugged his raincoat tightly and stood up abruptly, the chair behind him toppling to the floor with a clang due to his movement.
He stammered, glaring exaggeratedly at the two gray circles on the ultrasound screen,
"What's... what's this?"
"The babies' heartbeat."
