Chapter 15:

Jiang Cheng

Three months have passed since Shijie and brother-in-law told everyone their story. Now...my due date was approaching and I was nervous as fuck. I didn't know what to do or expect, Wei Wuxian and Shijie both told me that when the time it came for them to come, that It would hurt like hell. I shivered at that, but they both pat my shoulder. Wei Wuxian grinned and he says, "Well, it's part of childbirth Cheng Cheng~" I rolled my eyes at that, and Shijie giggles softly at the both of us. 'Well, It does make sense that It would hurt...so obviously there is pain...'

A-Huan several times told me to calm down, and he reassured me that everything was going to be alright. I tried to follow his instructions, but man was it hard. A part of me started thinking negatively, and I tried very hard to erase those thoughts, but my mind was driving me crazy with nervousness. I sighed.

Right now Lan Huan was at work, so I was just lounging in the living room watching T.V when I hear the doorbell ring. By now my stomach had REALLY GROWN! To the point that my insecurities tripled even more! (No pun intended XD) I started to feel...inadequate for Lan Huan. I sighed at this and I started going into a daydream of that day...

~Flashback~

"Lan Huan..." I say to my husband who was reading a book right next to me on our couch. He places his book down, his page saved with a bookmark and he looks at me. "Yes, Wanyin?" He smiles. That smile almost made me smile back at him, but then my mind started coming up with negative things. I look at my stomach and I sigh, 'Look how big you are...', 'Do you think Lan Huan actually loves you like this?' I could feel tears start to come out of my eyes, so I look down. I didn't want Lan Huan to see me cry.

After a bit, I hear the creak of the couch and the move of cushions, and then I felt his hand lift my chin up and he frowned. "Wanyin? Honey, what's wrong? Why are you crying?" He says with a concerned tone. I sniffle and Lan Huan rubs my tears away. I wanted to cry more at his caring action, but I decided against it. After a few moments of me calming down, I start to speak.

"Lan Huan...am I...fat? Do I look like a whale? I feel...so insufficient for you...I get emotional all the time...and..-" Tears again start going down my cheeks, so I start to cry again.

"..." Lan Huan had said nothing, so I started to think the worst. 'Is he going to leave me because of my insecurities? How I look? My attitude?' I was about to stand up and leave him, but I feel Lan Huan pull me closer to him. I fall into his arms. I was now on his leg. I was facing him and through my tears, I stare up to glare at him and...

'He's crying?!' I stare at him in surprise. I could tell he was upset, but I could see the pain in his eyes. He sniffles and brings his hand to my chin. "Wanyin...who told you this? Did anyone tell you were inadequate for me?" Oh crap, I could tell he was pretty mad. I shake my head, "N-No...no one told me this, but...I-" He cuts me off with a tender, loving kiss. I was surprised, but I slowly relaxed and let him take the lead of the kiss. Our tears were wetting our cheeks, and our kiss, but we both didn't care.

After we separated, he laid his forehead against mine and he said in a whisper, "Wanyin...why would you think that? My dear, I would never leave you. I'm at least grateful that you came to me with your insecurities and you didn't try to hide your pain from me, but..."

He gives me a look of determination and love. "Just know...that you are my one and only, I would never leave for how you act, or how you look because your personality, your looks are only one of the many things I fell in love with, so please don't ever think I would not love you because of it...alright?" He gives me a small smile filled with tenderness, warmth, and devotion. Lan Huan then rubs my tears away and he kisses my forehead. I giggle at how his breath tickled my forehead and I felt him smile, "I finally see you laughing and smiling my dear...how adorable you are..."

He embraces me and he starts to whisper in my ear, "My dear precious Cheng-er~...you my dear are adorable, cute, beautiful...-" I started to blush at his compliments, and I wanted to squirm away, but he wouldn't let me. He then as a small punishment bit my earlobe gently, and I let out a soft moan. "Now...where were we before my adorable, sexy, husband interrupted me hm?~" He makes a gesture like he was thinking and then smirks at me, "Ah yes...~ I remember now!" He gets closer to my lips and softly blows on my lips.

I moaned at the sensation and he chuckles, "I was just making my Wanyin know how beautiful his body is, and that I would never see him as 'fat' or 'ugly'..." He frowns and makes a face of disgust at the words, but then he composes himself and he smiles a bit flirtatiously making me blush like a tomato. "I have a lot of synonyms to describe you...handsome, beautiful, alluring, irresistible, sexy, charming...cute..." He licks my bottom lip, "My Wanyin you are so many things to me, and now...you are the carrier for our children..." He then kisses me again with such a passion that my legs started to shake and tremble. Thank goodness that we were on the couch, or else I'm pretty sure I would've fallen. "N-Ngh~ A-Huan~" I moan while I grip his shirt.

"A-Cheng..." He softly bites my lip and I moan louder. All this passion was getting to me, and I felt myself start to get hard at his ministrations.

We pant as we both try to calm down our lust, and Lan Huan starts to speak. "Wanyin... *pant* just know that I love you no matter what...alright?" He gives me a bright smile, his cheeks coated with a soft pink tint. I nod and I smile at him, tears again softly falling down my cheeks. He rubs my tears with his thumb, and his mouth starts to curve up into a smirk. 'Oh shit! That smirk! He's planning something!'

I felt a shiver of fear, excitement, and lust go through my spine. He lowers his head to my ear once more and whispers hotly against it, "Also...I don't mind you looking like this...~" He lightly places his hand on my stomach once more and rubs in a teasing manner. He pulls his face back and grins at seeing my face red. "Seeing you...like this.."

He rubs my stomach and I feel a very light, but strong kick; To which I flinch and he chuckles. Lan Huan rubs my stomach gently, and tenderly so he children could calm down. I smiled at this, and once they did calm down, he goes to my ear and lightly licks my earlobe. I groan again and I set my head against his chest. All the lust that had left had all come back again. I then yelp as Lan Huan pulled me from his leg to his lap. Since my stomach was big I couldn't really wrap my legs around his waist. My belly was making it hard for me to wrap my hands around his neck, but that didn't stop him from kissing my neck, lips...anything that was not covered by my clothes. My body was reacting to Lan Huan's touches, kisses, rubs.

I started to pant like crazy when I felt Lan Huan rut his erection against my ass; Moaning as I started to feel my member rubbing against my abdomen and his chest. All the friction was driving me crazy, but at the same time, it wasn't enough. I wanted Lan Huan inside of me, but...even though my mind was clouded with lust, I knew that wasn't really a good idea. "Oh, my Wanyin...how I wish I could make love to you...~" His hand slowly goes under my shirt that I was wearing, (which was his btw) and I moan as he starts to rub my hardening, sensitive nipples.

"L-Lan Huan~ S-stop...~ a-ahh!~" I tried again to move from his grasp, but his other hand held my hips in place. He shakes his head, "No my A-Cheng...you aren't going anywhere my sweet. I may not be able to fuck you, but I can help you and myself to alleviate our sexual frustrations from these weeks of course...does that seem ok to you?" His eyes...oh god his eyes had darkened with lust. I gulped silently, and I pant.

My body was hot with want...with need, so I nod to him. I wanted to feel him inside me...fucking me hard against the mattress while whispering licentious words in my ear. I moan at my thoughts and out of nowhere, I feel myself being lifted into big, strong, and sturdy arms. I yelp once more and he smiles, "I know we want the same thing, but I want to make sure you are comfortable...so, we are going to our room.~" He winks at me and kisses my forehead. I blush bright red in shame and embarrassment. 'He saw right through me!' I then hide my face in his chest and he lightly laughs as we head to our bedroom...

That night we touched, groped and kissed each other. No skin on our bodies was left untouched and unmarked...

It was like we were starved animals. We felt like we were animals in heat. My moans, his groans, the squelches...all of it made us turned on. "Huan-er~" I moaned out. I could tell that Lan Huan was holding back for my sake, and I wanted to tell that it was fine, but the logical piece of my head was saying 'No, it could hurt the babies...' So I didn't say anything to him. Oh, how kind is he, how did I deserve such a gentle, kind, handsome husband...

He made sure to make me feel good. Pleasure coursed through my body. I also helped him feel good. His groans and small moans gave me more confidence as I gave him a handjob. I bit my lip to not let out any more unnecessary noises, but just seeing A-Huan panting, moaning, and thrusting his hips in my hand made me feel even more aroused with lust. My hormones were making me feel it, even more, oh my god, I was more turned on more than usual. After we had both released, we were both exhausted. (Me more than him since as I was pregnant, I got more tired...) We both cuddled together, he kissed my forehead, and with a yawn, I fell asleep.

~Flashback End~

"Ugh...!" I flushed a bright red. "Why the hell am I remembering that night?!" I shake my head to clear that memory. After I had calmed down, I slowly got off the couch, it was pretty hard to get off of it because of my stomach, but finally, I managed to get off.

"Phew...now, who the hell is ringing my doorbell like a fucking maniac!" I yell towards the door. I start to get mad because the ringing wouldn't stop. A headache already started to brew on the front of my head.

"STOP RINGING THE FUCKING DOORBELL!" I yell again, and finally, the ringing stops. I let out a sigh of relief that finally my eardrums weren't going deaf at the sound and I open the door.

To my misfortune, the one behind the door was my hyperactive brother Wei Wuxian. This time he wasn't alone though. His husband, Lan Wangji was with him carrying the twins Lan Ya and Yu in his arms.

I sigh and I look at Wei Wuxian to find him smirking. "What's got your panties in a twist huh?~" He says with a grin. I glare at him, but I let them in.

Brother-in-law, Yu, Ya, and Wei Wuxian walk to the living and they sit down on one of the couches, while I sit across from them.

Once I had sat down (Letting out a sigh of relief at finally sitting down. My stomach this big was always giving me a lot of back pain.) and I got their attention, I questioned. "So? Why are you guys here? Did something happen?"

Wei Wuxian gave me a big smile, "Nope! We just wanted to see how you were doing ya know? Maybe talk about some things?" He winks at me and I saw Brother-in-law nodding. Lan Yu and Ya, were playing with each other on the other couch. I sighed at Wei Wuxian's shenanigans. "Whatever, anyway, do you guys want something to drink?" I said while I got up, with the help of Wei Wuxian. (He was snickering. The bastard.)

They both nod, and Brother-in-law then asks my nephews and they both say yes. To which I then excuse myself to our kitchen to make their drinks.

...

Just as I was going to make the twins' drinks, I felt some sharp pain in my abdomen. I groaned a bit in discomfort. 'It...can't be...right? They were supposed to come next week...Next week is the due date...' I started to panic a little bit but tried to reassure myself that they weren't coming out until my train of thought gets cut off by the searing pain in my lower abdomen, and that's when I knew. 'Shit! They are coming now!'

I got my composure back somewhat, so I yelled, "WEI WUXIAN!" More pain came after that. I grip the kitchen counter while I doubled over in pain. Sweat was starting to accumulate in my brow, and immediately Wei Wuxian comes in the kitchen with a panicked expression.

"Jiang Cheng?!" He immediately comes closer to me and helps me. I was gasping for breath, and I knew that my contractions had started. "T-The...ugh! kids...god..my w-water...b-broke! they..Ug! Shit! Fuck! This Argh! FUCKING HURTS!" I yell as I gripped to Wei Wuxian. Through all the pain, I could faintly hear Wei Wuxian yelling to brother-in-law to call 911. Brother-in-law quickly gets his phone from his pocket and calls. He then grabs my nephews and calms them down. They both were crying at how

The ambulance came a bit later, and I was writhing even more in pain when the EMT's came to take me away to the hospital. Wei Wuxian rode with me to the hospital. I was in pain, like really bad, but I started to panic more when I hear the EMT's talking to my brother saying how my pain wasn't normal. Wei Wuxian gripped my hand a bit tighter and he told me how I was going to fine, how I needed to be strong, and through all my pain muddled mind I kept myself awake. I knew I had to. This pain...its for our children...I have to endure this...

We got to the hospital and doctors and nurses were already outside waiting for my arrival. Wei Wuxian came with me inside. They quickly rolled me into the hospital. While I was being rolled off to the emergency room, for an emergency c-section, I see my husband, Lan Huan running towards me. "Wanyin!"

'Oh...this must be the hospital where Lan Huan works huh...' I was tired, I was in horrible, indescribable pain. I kept yelling out curse while both of my hands were gripping the gurney's sheets. Lan Huan saw this, so he gripped my hand and started to talk with the other doctors. While I couldn't understand what they were saying as I was solely focused on my abnormal sharp pain. I looked up towards Lan Huan, and I saw Lan Huan's face pale. I started thinking the worst. 'Oh no...Is something happening to our children...' I started to tear up at the possibility that my children would die inside of me.

Lan Huan saw my panic, so he quickly kissed my sweaty forehead tenderly, and he said something that I couldn't really hear, but I felt reassured because of his sweet gaze telling me that everything was going to alright.

I took a deep breath to calm myself down, but the onslaught of pain made me yell out in agony. My breathing was all uneven, I felt like something was kicking or not even kicking, but stabbing my lower abdomen and they had finally brought me to the emergency room. They asked Lan Huan to stay out, and he seemed reluctant to leave my side, but the doctor's reassured him that I would be fine, so he relented.

I wanted to also let him stay, but Lan Huan gave me a smile, and that gave me all the reassurance I needed to go through this.

I was screaming and writhing in agony. I saw that the Doctor that checked me out second was here with an anesthesiologist. They told me that they would have to give me general anesthesia (Which would make me sleep through the whole procedure). I nodded at this, and they started the procedure after they explained quickly what was happening and what they were going to do. I have to say since with all the pain that I was going through I don't really remember that much of the procedure.

Once they gave me the anesthesia I started to feel lighter, relaxed, and with less pain. I just closed my eyes for a second, and everything turned black. I was out like a light.

...

...

...

"..."

"S-...sh...your mot...the...r...i...s...sle...epi...ng lit...tle on...e..." I hear a soft, faint voice. I don't know, but...that mellow tone sounded really familiar to me...

I groaned, and I hear some shuffling footsteps getting closer to me.

"Oh...look. Your mother is waking up." I hear the voice again speak happily.

I open my eyes slowly, and I wince at seeing bright lights. I close and open my eyes slowly to get used to the lights, and when I turn my head slowly to my right, I am greeted by my husband, Lan Huan holding one of our children. He smiles at me and he gets closer even more.

"Wanyin...I'm glad you're awake..." He says while his eyes start to tear up. I give him a small, tired smile. "You idiot...of course I would wake up..." I say quietly with a sigh. He comes down and kisses my forehead, "Good job my love...you did great. All our three children are safe and sound." He smiles brightly at me. Now I was the one who started to tear up, "R-Really? They are okay?" He nods. I then look around, "What about our other two? Where are they?"

He smiles gently and sits down on the chair next to my bed. "They were a bit complicated when they came out, so they are supervising them for now. They were the ones that shared the placenta. The third little one looked really weak, so they took him along with the other to supervise them. But, this little guy here..."

He shows me the child he was holding. "This little one here is the oldest by some minutes, and he came out really healthy." He lets me see the little babe, and man was he beautiful. He had a mixture of our traits. immediately when the little child opened his eyes I could notice right immediately that he inherited Lan Huan's eye color, but he inherited my face shape. "He is so beautiful..." I sobbed. Tears were coming out of my eyes, and Lan Huan just smiled tenderly, and fondly at me.

I softly reach for his little hand and he quickly reaches out and holds my pointer finger and I just break down. "I'm so happy..." I say while with my other hand I try to wipe away my tears, but to no avail, they just kept on coming. I hear Lan Huan chuckle softly and he kisses my cheek. "I am too Wanyin. I love you...so much for giving me such an adorable and cute family."

After a few moments of playing with the little one, Lan Huan speaks up and smiles softly.

"So...I told the doctor's that I wanted to wait for you to wake up, so we could both name our children, so since you are still a bit tired, and I'm pretty sure the numbness from the anesthesia isn't totally gone yet, I'll leave this little one here in his crib while I go speak to a doctor about naming them. Alright? I'll be back my lovely Cheng-er." He gives me a peck on the lips and leaves. I look over to the crib where one of our little ones was and I smiled gently.

Finally after 9 stressful months...our children were with us, in our world. I can't even describe all the happiness I am feeling. All that pain that I had a while ago...It was totally worth it to see our children okay, and breathing.

I let out a breath of relief at knowing that from here and on, we were going to be alright. Nothing bad will happen to us.

A moment passes and a nurse comes in with our two other children and Lan Huan behind her.

"They just cleared these two little kiddos here, but they will have to be at the hospital for a little while longer, but now we can name our children."

I smile at him and he sits down on the bed while the nurse picks up our eldest tenderly, "Now, what would you guys like to name this adorable child?" She says with a smile, I nod to Lan Huan and he speaks, "Lan Zian. Zian meaning peace." He says and she nods, "That sounds like a wonderful name!"

She places A-Zian down in his crib and she picks up our next little child, a girl. "What about her?" She asks.

I think for a moment, "Hm...what about Lan Zi? Zi meaning graceful; beautiful?" She smiles brightly, "That's a beautiful name! Hello little Lan Zi..." She carefully, and tenderly places her down to pick up our last child.

"Now, what about this little boy here?" She says while she rocks the little one since he was asleep. "...Hm, let's name him Lan Ru. Do you agree A-Cheng?" Lan Huan says while he holds my hand in his. 'Ru meaning bright...' I smiled, "Of course, that sounds like a wonderful name. Ru meaning bright." A-Huan nods and the nurse places A-Ru down where A-Zian, A-Zi were. She smiles a both of us and bows. She then leaves and we were now left with our beautiful children.

"We did it Wanyin." He smiles, "Our cute children are with us." I nod and smile while I hug A-Huan, "Thank you...thank you for being with me...I love you Huan-er..." I was blushing while saying this, but I meant all of it.

Lan Huan chuckles and embraces me back. "No, A-Cheng, thank you, you had to do all the work of carrying our little family in you for almost 9 months, I should thank you more for all your hard work my love." He kisses my forehead, and he lays his forehead against mine. "I love you Cheng-er, more than you can imagine..." He then presses his lips against mine in a soft, tender kiss, that quickly becomes a passionate one.

After our little moment, the anesthesia was finally gone from my limbs from the waist down, and Lan Huan then asked.

"Would you like me to bring you our children one by one Wanyin?" He says while he gets up and heads to the crib. I nod immediately, I really wanted to carry our beloved children.

He picks up A-Zi and comes over to me and he tenderly hands her to me. I support his head and back and I almost tear up again. A-Zi looked so delicate, so...graceful. Our daughter opened her little eyes and she had my eye color, but she had A-Huan's face shape. I loved her.

I kissed her forehead gingerly, and she smiles. I almost die because of her adorableness. Lan Huan grins and I hand her to him since her eyes had fluttered shut again to sleep. He also kisses her forehead and places her in the crib. He then gingerly picks up A-Ru and heads over to me, rocking him since he also was falling asleep.

I support his head and back as well and again as with A-Zi, A-Ru I fell in love with him as well. After that I held A-Zian. Again I would be repeating myself, but man does he look like his father. I love them all. Obviously, why wouldn't I? All our children are so precious to me. To Lan Huan. We will love them all unconditionally.

After I had seen and held all of our children, I started to feel pretty tired as well. Lan Huan pet my head, "If you're tired A-Cheng you should go to sleep. You deserve it, my love~" He strokes my head tenderly, and I cuddle closer to him. We were a bit squashed on the bed, but It didn't matter. Our children were in their crib, sleeping happily, and we finally could see them. And now, my husband has been with me through all of these hardships, and he has given me enough love for all of eternity. I love him so much, and I will always be by his side.

...

The next day, Wei Wuxian, Lan Wangji, My nephews, Shijie, brother-in-law, Jin Ling, and Lan Sizhui came to see me and our children. It was also a pretty big surprise to see Old man Lan come as well. Lan Xichen must've called him. Wei Wuxian, Lan Yu, and Ya, Shjie, and Jin ling (Even though he wanted to hide his squeals) were squealing at how cute they looked. While they were cooing with the kids, Old Man Lan, Xichen, and brother-in-law were talking. The peacock andSizhui were speaking with each other. Sizhui was smiling and so was brother-in-law.

I let out a small smile at my friends, family, and relatives. Wow...what did I do to deserve to be this happy...I chuckled, and Lan Huan comes to my side and kisses my cheek. And as he read my mind he says, "You deserve to be more than happy Wanyin...You more than totally deserve it." He smiles back at me, and we share a small, but sweet kiss.

And~ That's It! Hope you enjoyed this long journey! This is the final chapter of "Heartfelt"...well maybe not the last, because the next chapter is the Epilogue. Thank you for being patient, and hopefully, you like this chapter! Again, if you see any mistakes, please let me know.
