"And I'm going to repeat how I responded to you back then, too," Jin Liwei said. "I'm only saying what's in my heart. I'm glad that my words make you feel better."
Iris pressed their foreheads together. Their hot breaths intermingled but they didn't kiss. They stayed in this position, soothing each other and basking in the gravity of their love.
After they left the music room, Iris busied herself with taking care of the twins. Jin Liwei continued to worry about her emotional state especially after what happened earlier but felt relieved upon seeing that she seemed to have returned to normal.
But later that night, Iris suddenly fell sick and burned with high fever. She became disoriented and unable to respond to him properly.
Jin Liwei panicked and carried his wife from their bedroom to the hospital wing in a rush. The nannies were called to watch over the twins.
This commotion couldn't be hidden.
