When a Blade of Grass Wants to Become Immortal

Chapter 190: Chapter 186: Wimp x Innocent Little Overlord 25

No matter what Ji Xiaosong said, Jiang Yao didn’t dare let her get pregnant again.

Once the quadruplets’ first birthday ceremony was over, Ji Xiaosong got busy with her new album.

She received more and more invitations, and her days grew increasingly busy.

Jiang Yao, on the other hand, breathed a sigh of relief.

He was fine as long as Ji Xiaosong wasn’t pushing him to have more children. He was genuinely terrified.

’Anyone who’s seen their wife give birth would be traumatized!’

He simply couldn’t bear to watch Ji Xiaosong suffer like that again.

However, despite taking every possible precaution, he couldn’t prevent Ji Xiaosong from getting pregnant when the quadruplets were three years old.

When Ji Xiaosong set her mind to something, who could possibly stop her?

The quadruplets were all brilliant, and everyone who met them adored them.

They were well-mannered, intelligent, and adorable.

Personality-wise, in particular, every one of the children loved to smile. They were nothing like the grimly mature children Ji Xiaosong had raised before.

When they learned their mother was pregnant again, the quadruplets were ecstatic.

”Mama, are we going to have a little brother or sister?”

The eldest touched Ji Xiaosong’s belly, his eyes filled with anticipation.

Hearing this, the second-born’s eyes went wide. He bounced over to Ji Xiaosong’s side, tightly gripping the hem of her clothes and clamoring impatiently, ”Mama, Mama, I want a little sister! I bet a little sister would be super cute. In the future, I’ll give her all my toys and buy her little dresses.”

The third-born, meanwhile, struck a thoughtful pose, tilting his little head with a finger to his lips. After pondering for a moment, he said in a sweet, childish voice, ”I’ll be happy whether it’s a brother or a sister. After they’re born, I’ll teach them lots and lots of fun things.”

The fourth-born was an impatient one and could no longer hold back. He began running in circles around Ji Xiaosong, chanting, ”Mama, Mama, when are you having the baby sister? Can you be a little faster? I want to see my sister soon. When she’s born, I’m going to be the first one to hold her. I’m already three, I can hold a baby!”

Looking at the four children before her, the smile on Ji Xiaosong’s face grew even softer.

She gently patted the eldest’s head and said, ”That’s right. You’ll have new siblings very soon. Just wait another ten months, and then you’ll get to meet them.”

”Yay! Mama, I calculated it. Ten months is when summer comes again.”

The eldest tilted his head back, showing off his tiny teeth.

The second-born scooted closer to Ji Xiaosong. ”Mama, will there be a sister?”

”Yes, there will be.”

Ji Xiaosong gave him a definitive answer. ’With sons and daughters, life is truly perfect.’

”Yay! I’m getting a little sister!”

The second-born was ecstatic. Ji Xiaosong pulled him in front of her, picked him up, and planted a kiss on his rosy cheek. ”When your sister is born,” she said with a smile, ”you can give her your favorite toys and the pretty little dresses, and she’ll be so happy. But for now, you need to be a good boy and not tire out Mama and the baby in her belly, okay?”

The third-born was still standing nearby with a serious expression. Ji Xiaosong beckoned to him, and when he drew near, she took his little hand and said, ”Mama knows you’re a thoughtful little teacher. When your little brother and sister are born, I’m sure they’ll be eager to hear you tell them all those interesting things. But you have to take good care of yourself first. You can only teach them well if you’re strong and healthy, right?”

”I understand, Mama. I’ll definitely take good care of myself from now on and eat lots of meat so I can grow up tall.”

The third-born made his promise with a solemn face, and the smile on Ji Xiaosong’s face deepened.

Seeing her fourth son still running in circles, Ji Xiaosong reached out, stopped him, and pulled him into a hug. ”Don’t be anxious, sweetie,” she said patiently. ”Your little sister needs to grow slowly in Mama’s tummy. She’ll come out to meet you when she’s big and strong. You just focus on eating well and growing tall, and then you’ll be able to hold your sister nice and steady.”

”Okay, Mama! Then I’ll go ask Teacher Yang today how babies grow in a mommy’s tummy. That way, I’ll know when my sister is going to come out and meet me.”

The four children were just as excited about this pregnancy as the rest of the Jiang Family. They accompanied Ji Xiaosong to every one of her prenatal checkups.

Because the Jiang Family had already built a delivery room and a prenatal care wing at their home when she was pregnant with the four of them, this pregnancy was also being handled by the same team.

Having experience with multiple births, they were far more adept than before.

Meanwhile, Jiang Yao had gone to who knows how many places to find a suitable anesthetic.

When Ji Xiaosong learned what he was doing, she chose an anesthesiologist with an excellent reputation and gave her consent.

’She wouldn’t feel the pain of childbirth anyway, but now that she knew how much effort Jiang Yao was putting in, she couldn’t let another foolish mix-up like last time happen.’

This time, Ji Xiaosong was carrying boy-girl twins. She hadn’t made any special preparations beforehand, aside from using Spiritual Energy to nourish her body daily. She didn’t interfere in any other way.

The days passed one by one, and Ji Xiaosong’s belly grew larger and larger.

When she was six months pregnant, she also did a maternity photoshoot.

After the photos were posted online, they sparked a heated discussion.

”Pregnant again? Genuinely jealous. When rich people have more kids, they’ll be raised with higher quality.”

”These are the people who should be contributing to the country’s birth rate.”

”I wonder if the gorgeous Ji Xiaosong’s daughter will be as beautiful as her. Just the thought of it is thrilling.”

”And when you factor in Chairman Jiang’s genes... I mean, think about the quadruplets. These upcoming twins are guaranteed to be stunningly beautiful.”

”She’s having more? I guess even in a rich and powerful family, you still have to pop out kids to secure your status.”

”Is she a birthing machine? Aren’t four children enough?”

”To the commenters above, you’re going too far. Xiaosong has said before that she loves children, which is why she wants to have more. What does that have to do with her status being secure or not?”

”Right? With her capabilities, it’s not like she couldn’t get by without the Jiang Family. She just likes having kids; it’s not like she was forced into it.”

...

Seeing this bizarre conflict brewing, the public relations department at Starry Entertainment quickly and discreetly intervened.

It wasn’t that they were afraid of rumors spreading. The main reason was that, as a celebrity, it was important to guide her fanbase and properly manage her public image.

Fortunately, such voices were not numerous, and after a few days of work, the PR department resolved the issue.

Ji Xiaosong carried this pregnancy to full term before giving birth. This time, she didn’t pretend to be in pain, truly achieving a completely painless delivery.

Jiang Yao watched from the side, and only when he saw that Ji Xiaosong was truly not in much pain did his heart finally settle.

”Honey, six children is really enough. Can we please stop now?”

He looked at Ji Xiaosong, but even as he said it, he felt a complete lack of confidence.

Ever since Ji Xiaosong had gotten pregnant again, his status at home had nearly hit rock bottom.
