Chapter 419 Fu Yunyi and Fu Yunshu
Mo Shian looked at his sister's slightly pale face and frowned unconsciously.
The smell of disinfectant in the ward mixed with the sweet scent of osmanthus wafting in from outside the window, and the regular "beeping" sound of the monitor made this afternoon particularly quiet.
"Really? It doesn't hurt?" He lowered his voice, his fingers gently brushing the strands of hair on Yun Zheng's forehead. "Don't lie to me."
Yun Zheng raised a weak smile and reached out to hold her brother's wrist. "I got the painkiller, it really doesn't hurt. It's just..."
She paused, her gaze drifting out the window. "Only after giving birth do you realize what exhaustion means."
Mo Shian noticed that there was still an IV in his sister's wrist, and the purple bruises were particularly glaring on her fair skin.
His Adam's apple rolled and he suddenly didn't know what to say.
They missed more than 20 years of the life of this lost and found sister, and now they couldn't even be with her when she gave birth.
It would be a lie to say I have no regrets.
"Brother?" Yun Zheng shook his hand. "What are you daydreaming about?"
"Nothing." Mo Shi'an came back to his senses and took out a velvet box from his pocket. "This is for you."
Yun Zheng opened it curiously, and inside was a pair of small diamond earrings, sparkling softly in the sunlight.
"This is"
"This is the company's new 'Guardian' series." Mo Shi'an cleared his throat uncomfortably. "The designer said the facets of the diamond can reflect light from all angles, just like family members protecting you from all directions."
Yun Zheng's eyes instantly turned red.
She bit her lower lip, her fingers gently tracing the delicate lines on her earrings. "Thank you, brother."
"Don't cry," Mo Shi'an frantically pulled out a tissue, "You can't cry during the confinement period, Mom said so."
Yun Zheng burst into laughter and asked, "How do you even know this?"
"It's because..." Mo Shian swallowed the words back.
He wanted to say, "Because you're the baby we finally found," but he was afraid of bringing back his sister's sadness about the past, so he had to change the subject. "By the way, I brought some supplements, all good for postpartum recovery."
He stood up and took out several exquisite gift boxes from his suitcase. "This is wild ginseng, this is royal jelly from New Zealand, and this..."
"Brother," Yun Zheng interrupted him helplessly, "How can I finish all this?"
Mo Shian scratched his head and said, "Eat slowly, there's no rush."
On the other side, in the neonatal intensive care unit.
Old Master Mo stood in front of the incubator, holding his crutches tightly in both hands, staring at the little guy wrapped in a light blue blanket inside without blinking.
The baby was not much bigger than his palm, its face wrinkled and its chest rose and fell gently with its breathing.
"This is my brother," Fu Linghe explained softly.
Mo Chenfeng stood in front of another incubator, looking through the glass at the baby girl wearing a pink hat inside.
The business tycoon, who was always decisive at the negotiation table, was breathing very lightly at this moment, for fear of disturbing the sleeping baby.
"She..." Mo Chenfeng's voice trembled a little, "She is so small."
The nurse came over and explained with a smile, "Although they were premature, both babies' indicators are very stable. The older brother is very quiet, but the younger sister is very active and often kicks off the monitor's wires."
Mr. Mo's eyes suddenly turned red. "It really looks like Zheng Zheng."
Fu Linghe considerately pretended not to notice the old man's misconduct. "Would you like to see their little hands? The nurse said you can touch them gently."
Mr. Mo nodded eagerly.
Under the nurse's guidance, he tremblingly inserted his finger into the side hole of the incubator.
When that incredibly soft little hand held his index finger, the old man in his seventies cried like a child.
"Good, that's great..." the old man said, choking with sobs, "Our Mo family finally has a fourth generation."
Mo Chenfeng also tried to touch his granddaughter's little feet, and the warm touch made his heart tremble.
"Dad," he said softly, "we should go back. We can't stay here too long at a time."
Mr. Mo reluctantly withdrew his hand and took one last look at his sleeping great-grandson. "Let's go. Don't keep Zheng waiting anxiously."
When she returned to the ward, Yun Zheng was leaning against the head of the bed, sipping the soup that Ning Zhi had brought.
Seeing them come back, she immediately put down the bowl and asked, "Grandpa, Dad, have you seen the children?"
"I see, I see!" Old Master Mo walked quickly to the bedside with his cane, his voice trembling with excitement. "The two little guys are so energetic!"
Mo Chenfeng stood behind the old man, his eyes showing a rare gentleness. "Everyone is healthy, don't worry."
Ning Zhi took over the conversation, "Shi'an, you should go see the child too."
Mo Shian nodded and gently squeezed his sister's shoulder as he stood up. "I'll be right back."
After Mo Shi'an and Fu Linghe left, Old Man Mo sat down on a chair beside the bed and suddenly asked, as if remembering something, "By the way, have you decided on the children's names?"
Yun Zheng met the old man's gaze, a gentle smile appearing on her face. "Grandpa Fu has thought of several names, but we prefer 'Fu Yunyi' and 'Fu Yunshu'."
"Fu Yunyi, Fu Yunshu..." Mr. Mo repeated softly, a glint of approval in his eyes. "They're both good names!"
Mo Chenfeng also nodded in agreement, "Although the two babies don't have your last name, your name is also in their names."
Yun Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, a faint blush spreading across her face. "Brother's name is Yun Yi, and sister's name is Yun Shu. I'll think of nicknames for them in a couple of days."
Ning Zhi added with a smile, "The babies are very lively. When I went to see her just now, she was pushing the nurse's hand away."
As they were talking, Mo Shian and Fu Linghe came back.
Mo Shian's face was still filled with unconcealed excitement. "The babies actually smiled at me! Even though the nurse said it was just an unconscious muscle reaction."
"Really?" Yun Zheng opened her eyes wide in surprise, "She's never smiled at me before!"
Fu Linghe walked over to Yun Zheng and gently held her hand. "There will be plenty of opportunities in the future."
Yun Zheng leaned in his arms, chuckled and nodded, "That's right, but I don't know when the two babies' indicators will meet the standards and be discharged from the hospital."
"All the indicators of the two babies are normal now. They will be discharged from the hospital once their weight reaches the standard, which is estimated to be in about half a month."
As Fu Linghe spoke, he pulled the quilt over and wrapped Yun Zheng tightly, fearing that she would get a draft and catch a cold.
Yun Zheng responded softly and said nothing more.
Outside the window, the afterglow of the setting sun shines through the blinds, casting warm spots of light on the white sheets.
