Chapter 468 For the wealthy, childbirth is painless.

Si Yuting walked over, and Si Chen and Old Man Yuan, who were closest to him, both gave him their seats.

The baby held onto Niannian's fingers tightly, then shook them gently when he saw Si Yuting. He stared at Si Yuting with a blank, curious look in his eyes.

Actually, Si Yuting had already seen it. Bao Bao and Ali were promoted together, but he hadn't looked at it carefully yet.

Si Yuting reached out and touched the little girl's cheek, then stroked her other little hand.

It's so tiny! Putting its little hand in his slightly large palm, it melts my heart.

It's you! You've made Mom feel terrible all over, and I haven't been able to sleep well for days.

The baby twisted his little hand and grasped Si Yuting's thumb. His whole palm was just enough to wrap around Si Yuting's thumb.

The baby didn't make a sound, but grabbed one in each hand and slowly put it into its mouth.

The Queen realized, "They must be hungry. I'll go make some milk powder."

After the milk was prepared, the Empress and Bai Shuixin taught Si Yuting how to breastfeed and what to pay attention to.

Although Si Yuting had studied parenting tutorials for new fathers before, he was still a little nervous holding the baby, afraid that he might use too much force and accidentally hurt this fragile little life.

Only after the baby started gulping down the milk did Si Yuting lower his head and quietly watch the baby drink.

Her pink lips pouted, and her little hands knew how to grasp the bottle handle, although she wasn't holding it very firmly.

Watching the baby drink milk, Si Yuting felt a sense of healing and warmth in his heart, as if a piece of his heart had collapsed.

The baby drank about 10ml and then turned his head away, refusing to drink any more.

The doctor explained that a newborn baby's stomach is only the size of a cherry and can only drink this much, which put Si Yuting at ease.

Once the baby is full and has had enough to eat and drink, their eyes start to close.

"This child is so easy to take care of."

The Empress chuckled and instructed Si Yuting to put the baby back in the swaddle and cover him with a soft blanket.

Everyone else also quieted down and silently left the room, leaving only Wen You and a nurse inside to watch over things.

Si Yuting also arrived outside the ward and dialed the previously disconnected communication.

Now, Qu Tong and the baby are the top priorities, and Si Yuting and the Emperor and Empress are sparing no expense to protect her safety.

The military hospital was guarded by elites from the Sirius Legion. Qu Tong's ward was located on the top floor, which was exclusively for Qu Tong. Xuan Ping and his men were stationed at the elevators, corridors, and entrances to this floor. Only people familiar to Si Yuting and Qu Tong were allowed to come up, and everyone who came up had to undergo an examination, including the Emperor and Empress.

The baby is very well-behaved, and Qu Tong is recovering very quickly.

Jiang Zhou came to check on her once during the process. As she expected, her genetic disease had greatly improved. With the help of the hospital's high-tech repair medicine, the wound on her abdomen had healed completely in just a few days, and the incision was no longer visible.

In her past life, she would occasionally come across videos of prenatal and postnatal care posted online. She also personally accompanied a pregnant woman while doing tasks. It was an ordinary dual-income family.

I still remember the difficult journey that pregnant woman went through in giving birth and raising her child; it felt like giving birth was an ordeal.

It wasn't until I gave birth myself that I realized that for wealthy people, childbirth isn't as painful, and they're less likely to experience postpartum depression.

You'll have top-notch doctors performing your C-section, the most effective and least harmful medications, top-notch service, and a top-notch doula during delivery.

As long as you're willing to pay, you can enjoy comprehensive care; she doesn't have to worry about anything at all.

The Queen also arranged for her to have a senior nutritionist, a childcare worker, a massage therapist, and a professional body management team.

However, Qu Tong didn't like others touching her body, so Si Yuting took over as the masseuse.

His Majesty the Emperor specially granted Si Yuting a full six-month leave, allowing him to stay home and take good care of her.

As early as when Si Yuting realized he was spending too little time with his wife, he had already started delegating his tasks to Cheng Feng, Wen You, and the other two.

All four of them are very capable. Now that the situation has stabilized and there isn't much to do at the military headquarters, they can manage without any major problems, if not with ease.

Si Yuting only needs to provide occasional guidance at home.

Wen You came to find Qu Tong the day she left.

Old Yuan took the child away. Qu Tong was doing her daily rehabilitation exercises in the yoga room as instructed by the postpartum recovery teacher. Wen You sat to the side, eating the persimmons she had taken from Butler Chi.

Persimmons are a new energy fruit from Loy Star, and they won't be available until next month, but she can certainly eat them here first.

The yoga room was heated, and Qu Tong was wearing a rather fitted dress. Wen You ate while openly admiring and commenting, "Tongtong, you still have such a great figure even after having a baby."

"Hmm~ She's even sexier and more attractive now. Boss, you're really lucky with the ladies~"

Wen You's naked gaze swept over Qu Tong's chest, her tone ambiguous.

"How can anyone be as lucky as your Xiao Cheng?" Qu Tong glanced at her and replied irritably.

"Don't mention him, it's bad luck!" Wen You waved her hand dismissively, then looked at Qu Tong again, seemingly with regret. "Tongtong, you're not as fun to tease as you used to be. I still prefer the way you used to get angry and tell me to get lost. It gave off a feeling of wanting to refuse but actually welcoming, so cute."

Qu Tong rolled her eyes at her, "Then I have to thank you for that."

The saying "one is influenced by one's company" is not without reason. After spending a lot of time with Wen You, her skin has become thicker. Now she is not ashamed to hear such nonsense and can even make sarcastic remarks without any expression.

Wen You laughed heartily: "Haha! Then you'd better thank me properly."

"Thank you so much." Qu Tong was extremely hypocritical.

After joking around for a while, Qu Tong got up from the ground, put on her coat, and sat down at Wen You's small table.

Wen You handed over a whole persimmon that she had just peeled, saying, "It's ready so quickly."

"Okay." Qu Tong took it and nodded. "It only takes fifteen minutes a day."

Wen You looked at Qu Tong's slender waist and rosy complexion, "It seems your recovery is going quite well."

"It's alright. She's a royal-certified gold-medal postpartum rehabilitation specialist. I'll recommend her to you after you have your baby," Qu Tong teased. "A professional team that can provide in-home services. It's not expensive, only 200,000 a month. For a billionaire like you, that's just a drop in the bucket."

"Forget it, do you think everyone is as blessed as you? Neither he nor I have a fertility score over 30, so we're not even sure if we'll have a child." Wen You picked up a persimmon and started peeling it again.

"Neither of us has any requirements for this. If we have it, we have it; if we don't, we don't."

They seem pretty laid-back.

"So now that you're going to the border, does that mean you can't get married for the time being?" Qu Tong asked.

Chengfeng is a romantic person. He mentioned to her during a previous chat that he planned to have a wedding with Wenyou and asked her to keep it a secret.

"It's okay, I don't want to get married so early anyway." Wen You said nonchalantly.

Qu Tong looked at Wen You suspiciously, feeling that she not only didn't want to get married so early, but she didn't even want to get married at all.

Thinking this way, she asked the question directly.

"Don't you want to marry Chengfeng?"
