They stayed for over a week in the Second Prince's estate, and there wasn't a day someone didn't pay them a visit to wish Chu Yun a speedy recovery and gawk at the royal twins.
They all had the same question too.
"Are they alphas?" asked Chu Hean with an arched eyebrow.
"They're my children," replied Chu Yun with a tight smile.
Chu Hean returned the smile with a smirk. "So, no."
Chu Yun said nothing and Chu Hean let the issue go, but the air of infuriating smugness at having guessed right permeated the rest of his visit.
Only Lieba Chun's cheerful presence prevented Chu Yun from throwing his brother out for being annoying and describing his children as: "surprisingly turnip looking for a pair of wolves."
