[The months passed and Mulan's belly grew as did her hormones and cravings, but Shang was patient and loving with her, and he literally had to force her to stay home instead of going to the Imperial palace to do her job. Mulan had been keeping up with her appointments with the royal midwife at their home, everything was going smoothly, and Mulan was now four months pregnant]
<after Mulan's appointment>
Midwife: Everything is going perfect but there is something you should know
Mulan: What is it?
Shang: What's going on?
Midwife: I'm sure you'll be very happy with what I'm about to say...I heard two heartbeats, which means that you're going to have twins
Mulan: I'm sorry, what?
Shang: Yeah, what?
Midwife: That's right, congratulations
Mulan: T-Twins?
Shang: We're having two babies?
Midwife: Yes you are
Mulan: Oh Great Ancestors
Midwife: I will see you both next time and send for me if you feel any type of pains
Shang: Of course, thank you, madam
Mulan: Yes, thank you so much
Midwife: Absolutely, any time
(Shang pays her and then the midwife leaves)
Mulan: Ok, so we're having two babies
Shang: We better start coming up with names
Mulan: And a baby shower
Shang: And godparents
Mulan: Well that's the easy part, Lottie and Tia will be the godmothers
Shang: And the godfathers will be Philip and Ling
Mulan: Great, and now for the names
Shang: Well I know for a fact that if we have a baby boy then the name should be Ping
(Mulan laughs)
Shang: What
(He snickers)
Mulan: Really?
Shang: Yeah, I think it's perfect
Mulan: I agree, Ping means peaceful, I really like that name, let's do it, and now for a baby girl name
Shang: Hmm, well, we definitely have to think about it
Mulan: Actually, I may have one, bring me that book on the desk, please
Shang: Sure
(He goes to the desk, he gets the book to her, and then Mulan opens it to a specific page)
Mulan: I really liked the name Mei-Xing, it means beautiful star
Shang: I think that's gorgeous, I love it
Mulan: And for the middle name, I was thinking Lan
Shang: Like my mother
Mulan: Yes
Shang: My darling, thank you
Mulan: Of course, you don't even have to ask, I love you, and I wanted to
Shang: Can we give my father's name for Ping's middle name?
Mulan: Of course, don't ask, my love
(They share a passionate kiss but then Mulan pulls away)
Mulan: Wait, Shang
Shang: What is it?
Mulan: What if we have two boys?
Shang: Well, if we do, how about Jian and for the middle name Zhou
Mulan: That's perfect
Shang: If you want to, we can start planning the baby shower, so we can have everything ready in time, and we'll invite all of our friends
Mulan: I'd like that, my love
(They share a soft kiss and start planning the baby shower immediately)
