Chapter 1447 Don’t Drop the Baby
Little Misha looked like he also wanted to be tossed up in the air. He twisted his chubby body in Dom's arms and excitedly gestured. Unlike him, Little Dima was already content watching his elder cousins while sucking a pacifier.
Dom was about to ask Long Jinjing's permission to also pretend to toss Little Misha but Jin Chonglin beat him to it.
"Let me do it," he offered.
Long Jinjing was hesitant. "He's pretty heavy."
In response, Jin Chonglin flexed his arms. He may look slim but his lean muscles looked strong. "I can do it."
"Let him do it, Jinjing," Chen Fei interjected.
Jin Chonglin looked smug to gain his girlfriend's support.
Long Jinjing still looked hesitant but eventually relented.
"If he dares drop Little Misha, I'll castrate him," Chen Fei assured her best friend.
"I'll break his arms," Iris added.
"I'll break his legs," Jin Liwei followed suit.
"I…I'll pull out all his hair!" Dom didn't want to be left out.
"Uhm... My husband will probably, uh, chop him up?" Long Jinjing offered with hesitation.
"Not probably," Iris said. "Big Brother will definitely chop him up and then feed his bloody pieces to the sharks."
"En." Jin Liwei nodded.
Lin Yehan chuckled. Jiang Ying Yue didn't join in the teasing but she smiled.
The smug Jin Chonglin wilted but he didn't want to give up. He already stepped forward and volunteered. There was no way that he, the superstar Prince Lin Lin, would give up halfway!
"I said that I'll do it, so I'll do it properly! I won't drop the baby, okay? Why don't you all trust me?"
Nobody answered him.
He turned to his girlfriend. "Babe?"
Chen Fei rolled her eyes. "Just don't drop the baby or I'll really castrate you. Just try it and you'll see. You think that you're more important than any of the kids here, huh?"
That shut him up.
Of course, he already knew that his status in the hearts of everyone in this room couldn't even compare to any of the children here. He, Jin Chonglin, loved by millions of fans around the world couldn't even compete with snivelling babies. He cast a sullen look at his girlfriend who didn't even back him up.
Hmph!
Despite feeling aggrieved, he still took the squirming Little Misha from Dom.
"Oof!" Jin Chonglin's eyes widened at the baby's weight. "What the f—flower! Oooooh! The flowers are so beautiful!"
He immediately changed his curse upon getting glares from the parents.
Whoa! That was close!
He really almost dropped the baby!
What the f*ck?!
How was this baby so freaking heavy?
Was this normal?!
Even his elder brother's kids, Little Mochi and Little Matcha, weren't this heavy!
What did Lu Zihao feed his babies?
Dinosaur milk?
F*cking hell!
Although he was panicking inside, he pretended that everything was fine. Of course, he wasn't fooling anybody. Everyone saw his grimace before he managed to control his expression.
Steeling himself, he lifted the baby high up. Of course, he tried to be as gentle as possible.
Unfortunately, the excited Little Misha didn't know that his Uncle Lin Lin was having a hard time lifting him. The chubby baby squealed in delight while waving his arms and legs.
This made it harder for Jin Chonglin to control his movements.
At first, Long Jinjing looked like she almost wanted to snatch her baby from Jin Chonglin, afraid that he would drop Little Misha. But after watching him lift the baby a few times, she felt relieved and no longer attempted to stop him. She also smiled seeing her baby so happy.
"Do you want Uncle Lin Lin to carry you, too?" Chen Fei asked Little Dima.
Jin Chonglin stiffened a little. He glanced at the other Lu twin. Little Dima looked even bigger than the baby hippopotamus in his arms.
Fortunately for him, Little Dima only blew drool bubbles at Chen Fei. He didn't seem inclined to imitate his elder twin brother and was content watching him and their cousins.
Seeing this, Jin Chonglin released a silent sigh of relief. Then he saw his girlfriend smirking at him.
She was doing it on purpose!
Finally, Little Misha seemed to have had enough. He reached his chubby little hands toward his mother.
Long Jinjing easily took her baby from him with one arm.
Jin Chonglin was amazed at the ease of her movements. Indeed, mothers were amazing creatures.
"When we have a baby, let's not make the baby too fat," he told his girlfriend.
Chen Fei looked stunned at what he just said.
He also realized what he just said. He, too, became stunned.
The others also looked stunned.
After a minute or two.
Jin Chonglin: "Huh?"
Chen Fei: "Huh? HUH?!!!"
Then they froze again.
Little Jun clapped his hands and pretended to freeze as well. He thought that everyone was playing a game where the person who moved first would lose. But he lost his balance and looked sad that he lost.
Lin Yehan who had half of his attention on his bonus son was the first to realize what the child was thinking. He comforted the little guy. "It's alright, Little Jun. You were already amazing. Look, Daddy Han moved and lost, too. Are you hungry? Why don't we eat some snacks with your little cousins?"
The child's attention was quickly diverted. "Catties and doggies, chu?" (How about the cats and dogs?)
"Of course, the cats and dogs will have snacks, too," Lin Yehan assured him.
"Yay!"
With that, Lin Yehan led the way to remove the children out of the awkward atmosphere. Jin Liwei carried his own kids while the reluctant, gossip-loving Dom helped Long Jinjing carry the Lu twins.
Iris gave the still frozen couple a meaningful look before following her husband while herding the cats and dogs with Jiang Ying Yue out of the room.
Now that everyone left, Chen Fei and Jin Chonglin were the only ones left.
Chen Fei was the first one to come to her senses. She grabbed a pillow from the couch and threw it at the audacious man.
"What the hell did you just say, Jin Chonglin?!!!"
