Chapter 281 is the Little Princess

Qi Chenyan panicked for a moment.

But he quickly forced himself to calm down, and while getting up to help Yu Li, he first checked on her condition.

"Your water broke. I'll contact a helicopter right away. Don't worry, Pear. There's still a week until your due date. It's probably because your emotions were a bit volatile today that you gave birth early."

"Let's take a slow, deep breath, and then exhale slowly."

While comforting Yu Li, Qi Chenyan picked her up and shouted to Tan Mo, "Tan Mo! Tan Mo, come here quickly! Li Li's water has broken!"

The originally joyous wedding scene suddenly turned chaotic because Yu Li's water broke prematurely.

Qi Xi immediately pushed Zhou Heran away, saying, "Lili is going into labor early!"

Tan Mo rushed over and gave Yu Li a quick check-up.

"Your water broke, a week earlier than your due date, but it's not a big problem, sister-in-law. Don't be nervous. Your contractions aren't too strong yet, which means there's still some time before the baby comes out."

The helicopter was already parked, and Qi Chenyan carried Yu Li directly onto the helicopter.

Grandpa Qi, who had been happily attending his granddaughter's wedding, became extremely anxious and even forgot his cane. When he saw Qi Chenyan leave with Yu Li first, the old man even started walking briskly.

"Quick, take me with you!"

As a result, the wedding, which originally had many activities to offer, was abruptly ended due to Yu Li's premature delivery.

However, at this moment, everyone's thoughts were on Yu Li, and no one cared whether the wedding was completed properly.

Yu Li opted for a cesarean section, which would spare her the pain of vaginal delivery. Moreover, because she consulted a top-notch obstetrician, she would not have any noticeable scars.

Because it was a cesarean section, I was able to choose a good day to give birth. The original date was a week later, but unexpectedly my water broke suddenly.

However, all the medical staff had extensive clinical experience, and Yu Li was quickly taken to the delivery room after being sent to the private hospital.

Qi Chenyan had previously inquired whether expectant fathers could accompany their partners in the delivery room.

However, the doctor advised that it was best to wait outside, since doctors need to be highly focused during a cesarean section in order to avoid any accidents during the surgery.

If the expectant father is too nervous or faints at the sight of blood during the delivery, it may actually affect the mother's delivery and safety.

In the end, Qi Chenyan chose to wait outside.

We just can't see what's going on inside. Although the doctor said there wouldn't be any major problems, even with the most advanced technology, childbirth is still like walking through the gates of hell for a woman.

Outside the delivery room, Qi Chenyan paced back and forth, his hands clasped tightly together.

Faced with the barrage of questions from foreign media, Director Qi, who was usually unflappable, could no longer maintain his composure.

He was tense, anxious, and worried; a mix of emotions swirled within him.

"Shen Yan, don't be too nervous. There are several top obstetricians here, so your aunt will definitely be fine. Sit down first, after all, we still have quite a while to wait."

Seeing Qi Chenyan pacing back and forth, almost making one's eyes blurry, Zhou Heran finally spoke up to soothe his current anxious emotions.

Although Qi Xi was also nervous and worried about Yu Li's current situation, Zhou Heran stayed by her side, holding her hand, which gave her strength in an invisible way.

"Yes, Uncle, why don't you sit down for a while? Lili and the baby will definitely be safe and sound."

Grandpa Qi, who had even forgotten to take his cane, teased Qi Chenyan at this moment: "That brat Chenyan, ever since he can remember, has always acted like a little adult."

"It's rare to see him so nervous and flustered. It seems only his wife can keep him in check."

But Qi Chenyan was completely deaf to what anyone else was saying at that moment.

Grandpa Qi is also keeping up with the trend, and even took out his phone to take pictures of Qi Chenyan's current appearance.

It was only when Qi Xi saw the old man taking pictures that she remembered something.

"By the way, didn't Lili say before that she wanted to use a DV camera to film this important moment on the day she gave birth? Did you bring the DV camera?"

A DV camera was needed for the wedding, and someone quickly brought it over.

"Uncle, are you going to film this?"

Qi Chenyan didn't even look, he just stared intently at the door of the delivery room.

"I'll take the photos. Judging from how nervous Shen Yan looks, he probably isn't in the mood for it."

Zhou Heran took the DV camera. He knew that Qi Xi was also nervous and not in the mood to film. If it weren't for what Yu Li had said before, she wouldn't have been in the mood to record anything either.

About an hour later, the door to the delivery room finally opened.

Qi Chenyan stepped forward in one swift motion, "How is Lili? Is everything going smoothly?"

The nurse came out first, holding the newborn baby in her arms.

"Congratulations, Director Qi. Mother and daughter are safe and sound. The little princess weighs seven pounds and is very healthy."

From the moment Yu Li became pregnant, Qi Chenyan had been hoping for a daughter. Now that his wish had come true, he only glanced briefly at the baby in the swaddling clothes, his attention still focused on the delivery room.

Why hasn't Lili come out yet?

When the baby was brought out, everyone else came over to take a look.

Only Qi Chenyan and Qi Xi were more worried about why Yu Li hadn't come out yet.

Grandpa Qi was overjoyed when he saw the fair and tender baby in the swaddling clothes. "He looks just like Shen Yan when he was born. But why haven't I heard the baby cry at all?"

“Dad, you forgot, when Shen Yan was first born, he didn’t cry much. It was only after the doctor slapped his bottom that he cried twice. You were worried that Shen Yan might be a little mute.”

Qi Kunshan joked with a smile.

Li Rujun chimed in, "Yes, everyone says daughters resemble their fathers. It seems our little princess has taken after Shen Yan's personality."

Just then, Yu Li was finally pushed out.

Qi Chenyan immediately stepped forward and took Yu Li's hand.

"Pear?"

Yu Li's face was still very pale, and she did not respond to Qi Chenyan's calls.

The doctor explained, "The anesthesia hasn't worn off yet, and Miss Yu is still unconscious. The surgery went smoothly, Director Qi, please rest assured."

When Qi Xi saw that Yu Li had finally come out safely, he was so excited that he cried.

Zhou Heran then pointed the DV camera at this moment.

Half an hour later, Yu Li slowly woke up.

Her fingers twitched slightly, and Qi Chenyan, who had been watching over her, immediately noticed.

"Lili, you're awake? Does your wound hurt?"

Yu Li was still very weak, but she still smiled at Qi Chenyan.

"It hurts a little, but it's still within an acceptable range."

She turned her head to look for the baby, "Where's the baby?"

"Don't move, I'll bring it over for you to see."

Although it was his first time being a father, Qi Chenyan's movements in holding the baby were not unfamiliar, because he had already learned a series of courses on childcare beforehand.

"She's a little princess, and her eyes are most like yours, Lili."
