After Lin Feng left, Zhang Yuxi took a deep breath and walked over to Lin Dashan.

"Dad, let me introduce you."

"These four babies are two pairs of fraternal twins, a boy and a girl in each pair."

"The eldest and the fourth are boys, while the second and third are girls."

"From left to right, it's the eldest, the second, the third, and the fourth…"

As Zhang Yuxi spoke, her palms began to sweat.

Lin Dashan, however, stared at the four babies with unwavering attention.

"Daughter, can I hold them?"

"Of course, you're their grandfather!"

Excitement spread across Lin Dashan's face, but he seemed unsure of what to do. Seeing this, Zhang Yuxi picked up the eldest and placed him in his arms.

Lin Dashan took the eldest baby, gazing at his chubby face, and felt like he was about to melt.

"Aiyo, our eldest is so handsome!"

Lin Dashan's mouth stretched into a wide, beaming grin, completely devoid of his earlier sternness. Zhang Yuxi's heart warmed at the sight. After all, she was very happy to see her babies receive their grandfather's approval.

After holding the baby for a while, Lin Dashan reluctantly handed him back to Zhang Yuxi.

"I'm an old man, and I'm a bit musty," he said, looking a little regretful. "My clothes aren't very clean, either. It's better not to get the baby all smelly."

With that, he turned his gaze to the other babies. Pointing to the second one beside the eldest, he said with a smile, "This second one looks like another little troublemaker."

Zhang Yuxi laughed. "The eldest and the second are the most active and love to cause a ruckus."

"That's good! It means they're full of energy!"

Zhang Yuxi pointed to the other two babies. "These are the third and the fourth. They're quieter, especially the fourth, who sleeps like a little piglet all day."

Lin Dashan looked down at the soundly sleeping third and fourth babies, a tender expression on his face.

"The babies are all so healthy. You've really worked hard!"

Hearing this, Zhang Yuxi shook her head. "Actually, it's all thanks to Lin Feng's good care. I'm usually at the university for classes. The babies have grown up so healthy because of him."

Lin Dashan nodded. "It's good that you can remember Lin Feng's kindness..."

"Yes, I'll always remember," Zhang Yuxi replied, nodding emphatically.

Just then, Lin Dashan's phone rang. He glanced at the screen before looking up at Zhang Yuxi. "It's Lin Feng's mom. She's video calling."

Zhang Yuxi immediately grew nervous.

When the video call connected, a gentle-looking woman appeared on the screen. The moment she saw Lin Dashan, she began to complain.

"You old thing! You said you were going to Yangcheng, but you didn't even call me after you got off the high-speed train! You haven't replied to my messages, either. What on earth have you been doing?"

"Have you seen our son?"

"How are the babies? Is our daughter-in-law pretty?"

Hearing Zhou Cuilan's barrage of complaints, Lin Dashan felt a headache coming on. He quickly flipped the camera to face Zhang Yuxi and said, "Why don't you talk to your daughter-in-law directly!"

Startled, Zhang Yuxi quickly forced a smile.

"Auntie, no... Hello, Mom!"

Zhou Cuilan paused for a moment but quickly recovered, a broad smile gracing her features.

"Hello, daughter-in-law!"

"My name is Zhou Cuilan. From now on, you can just call me Cuilan Mom!"

Zhang Yuxi nodded eagerly.

Zhou Cuilan then turned her attention back to Lin Dashan. "Old thing, where are the babies? Quick, let me see."

Lin Dashan hurriedly aimed the camera at the four babies in the crib.

Seeing the plump, rosy-cheeked little ones, Zhou Cuilan's eyes widened.

"How adorable! My sweet grandchildren!"

"Aiyo, that biggest one is a boy, right? He looks so strong!"

"And that little lazy pig, talking in his sleep and even blowing bubbles!"

"The one in the middle, is that a girl? She looks so quiet..."

Lin Dashan held up the phone and began explaining to Zhou Cuilan.

"The two in the middle are both girls. One of them loves to make noise, while the other is quiet."

"The eldest and the fourth are boys. One is a bit sturdier, and the other loves to sleep in."

It was as if a floodgate had opened; the couple began discussing their grandchildren animatedly. Seeing this, Zhang Yuxi quietly slipped out of the bedroom and headed to the kitchen to give Lin Feng a hand.

「」

Not long after, Lin Feng finished cooking the meal. With Zhang Yuxi's help, he brought the dishes to the dining table.

Lin Feng walked into the nursery and called out to Lin Dashan, "Dad, dinner's ready!"

Lin Dashan walked over, still holding his phone. "I'm on a video call with your mom! She has something to say to you."

Lin Feng took the phone and switched to the front-facing camera.

Seeing the strikingly handsome face on the screen, Zhou Cuilan was momentarily stunned.

"You're... Lin Feng?"

"Yes, Mom!" Lin Feng smiled faintly. "How have you been?"

"I've been fine. It's your brother who's been a bit of a handful. But... how come you look so much more handsome than before? You've matured, too!"

Lin Feng laughed. "I'm still growing up. It's normal to get more handsome."

"Well, this is quite a change!" Zhou Cuilan said in surprise. Then, her expression softened with relief.

"Your dad just told me you have a house and a car in Yangcheng, and that you're earning your own money and living well. Still... you should have told us about all this."

Lin Feng shook his head and explained, "Mom, I've just been too busy lately. I haven't had the chance."

Zhou Cuilan wasn't truly scolding him.

"Alright, I won't keep you. Go on and eat! I've seen my daughter-in-law. She's very beautiful, and I'm very satisfied! When the babies have their half-year birthday, I'll definitely come visit you all!"

「」

After hanging up, Lin Feng pushed the crib and led Lin Dashan to the dining room. Zhang Yuxi had already set the table with bowls and chopsticks. Recalling her interactions with Lin Feng's parents, she felt they were quite easy to get along with.

"Dad, go ahead and eat!" Lin Feng urged, seeing his father still staring at the four babies instead of his food.

"Alright, let me taste my son's cooking!"

Lin Dashan picked up his chopsticks and took a bite of stir-fried pork.

"Mmm! This is really good. Lin Feng, with skills like these, you could set up your own food stall!"

Lin Feng was momentarily speechless. My cooking is worthy of a three-Michelin-star restaurant, and you want me to set up a street stall?

But he still smiled and said, "Dad, if you like it, then eat more!"

Lin Dashan didn't hold back. After sitting on a high-speed train for several hours, he was starving. He dug right in, praising Lin Feng's cooking with every mouthful.

Soon, the large spread of dishes had been wiped clean.

Lin Dashan nodded in satisfaction and wiped his mouth with a napkin.

"Okay, I've eaten, and I've seen the babies. It's about time I get going."

Lin Feng quickly stood up to stop him. "Dad, why don't you stay here tonight?"

Lin Dashan waved his hand. "Don't trouble yourself. I already booked a hotel when I arrived."

He didn't want to stay and intrude on their time alone. After all, Lin Feng had just gotten married, and the couple needed a little private space.

"I'll go look at the babies one more time, and then I'll head to the hotel," Lin Dashan continued. "Besides, the room is already booked and non-refundable. It would be a waste not to stay there."

"Alright." Lin Feng could only nod.

Lin Dashan walked to the side of the crib, his eyes filled with love as he looked at the four babies.

Just then, the System's voice suddenly echoed in Lin Feng's mind.
