Both Zhu Qianying and her husband, as well as Zizai himself, made a lot of arrangements for how to celebrate Guan Tianzi's birthday.
However, all these careful arrangements were disrupted by a phone call from Ji Huan the day before her birthday.
"Shadow, Xiaoyu is starting to have contractions. It looks like she's going into labor!"
Upon receiving the call, Zhu Qianying immediately packed her things, and the whole family flew to R City on a private plane.
After a whole night of labor pains, Zhu Qianyu gave birth to a chubby baby boy. According to Le Tong, Ji Rui, and their older brother Ji Yu, the baby looked exactly like young Master Ji Huan when he was a child.
Ji Huan, who had been hoping that Xiao Yu would give him a little princess, held his son and looked back and forth between his wife and son, his eyes reddening with emotion.
"Xiaoyu, thank you! You've worked so hard!"
At this moment, Ji Huan no longer cared whether the baby in his arms was a son or a daughter. As long as it was his and Xiao Yu's child, and that the mother and child were safe, that was all that mattered!
Yan Shao and Zhu Qianying stood a few steps away from the hospital bed, watching Ji Huan carry the baby and inch his face towards Zhu Qianyu. The three faces were pressed together, the baby's face still had the purplish-red color unique to newborns, Zhu Qianyu looked exhausted, and Ji Huan had red eyes and was almost in tears.
From this angle, although the expressions and features of the three faces were definitely not beautiful, there was a kind of happiness and indescribable beauty about them, shining into everyone's hearts like the sun radiating light. Everyone in the ward felt warm and touched.
Yan Shao, who would experience the same exciting and awe-inspiring scene a few months later, was filled with envy.
Both the baby and Zhu Qianyu seemed very tired. Everyone present was a close relative. After checking on the baby in the ward for a while and confirming that the mother and child were alright, they all stepped out into the corridor so that Zhu Qianyu and the baby could rest properly.
"Brother Yan, do you have a cigarette?"
Young Master Ji, who never smokes, stood at the end of the corridor and asked Young Master Yan.
Yan Shao shook his head. He wasn't a heavy smoker to begin with, and after learning that Zhu Qianying was pregnant, he quit smoking completely.
Ji Huan was slightly disappointed and leaned out the window, looking outside.
"Should I send someone to buy it?" Young Master Yan knew that Ji Huan was too excited, so he wanted to take a drag of his cigarette to calm down.
He had just straightened up when Ji Huan grabbed him and pulled him away.
"No need, I was just asking!"
Hearing this, Young Master Yan gave up.
In the corridor, several women were chatting together. Ji Yu took Beibei and Guoguo home to rest. Last night, the entire Ji family stayed at the hospital to wait for the baby's arrival.
Zhu Qianyu, who had been in labor for more than ten hours, insisted on having a natural birth with the doctor's permission, a decision that nearly scared Ji Huan to death.
Actually, not only was Ji Huan frightened, but Yan Shao, as an observer, was also a little frightened.
In his memory, Zhu Qianyu had always been a pampered little girl, how could she endure such torment?
But as it turns out, Zhu Qianyu and her sister actually have many similarities.
As Ji Huan accompanied Zhu Qianyu through the agonizing labor pains in the delivery room, a large group of people waiting outside silently worried for her.
Especially Zhu Qianying, the older sister, and Chen Jing, the mother, were so anxious that they paced back and forth in the corridor all night.
As for Yan Shao, the thought that Zhu Qianying would suffer the same torment in a few months made him feel conflicted.
"I never imagined that childbirth would be so terrifying..."
He now understands a little why some wealthy socialites secretly go abroad to find surrogate mothers.
"Yes, that's why my brother has always refused to have a second child. Xiaoyu has been saying that she wants a second child in two years, but I don't plan to have one. Anyway, the three of them, brothers and sisters, are not lonely."
Even now, Ji Huan still feels lingering fear when he thinks about the more than ten hours he spent with Zhu Qianyu in the delivery room.
Of course, such a significant matter as having children was not something Ji Huan could decide unilaterally. The final decision on whether or not to have children rested with Zhu Qianyu. Three years later, he and Zhu Qianyu welcomed the little princess he had always wanted. At that time, while he felt sorry for his wife, he was also completely captivated by the adorable and pink little princess in his arms, exclaiming that life was enough!
However, that's a story for another time. In short, Ji Huan's current appearance has indeed put a lot of psychological pressure on Young Master Yan.
The three little ones were the most relaxed and cheerful throughout the birth of Ji Huan and Zhu Qianyu's baby.
Especially Zizai, during the three days he stayed in R City, whenever he saw the baby, he would clamor to hold him.
"Mommy, let me hug my little brother! He shares the same birthday as me!"
It's quite a coincidence that the two cousins share the same birthday. Originally, the baby's due date was in two weeks, so everyone said that the baby deliberately arrived a few days early so that he could share a birthday with his cousin.
After hearing what everyone said, Zizai naturally wanted to get closer to the baby. Unfortunately, he lives in L City, so he can't hug and touch his little brother every day after he goes home.
"Mommy, can I stay?"
Zhu Qianying and Yan Shao stayed in R City for three days. When it was time to leave, Zizai begged to stay.
However, the Ji family has to take care of Xiaoyu who is in postpartum confinement, the baby, and a pair of twins. Wouldn't keeping Zizai be adding trouble to the Ji family?
"Sweetie, we'll come to see your little brother and auntie again sometime later."
Zhu Qianying had to use a lot of persuasion to coax her son back to L City. Fortunately, with the advancement of technology, Zizai could see the baby via video every day. As a result, for a long time after returning, the little guy kept talking about his little brother.
Seeing this, Yan Shao said to Zhu Qianying, "Look at Zizai, he'll definitely be a good older brother in the future."
Zhu Qianying strongly agreed with this, just as she agreed that Young Master Yan was a good father and husband.
After returning from R City, Young Master Yan, being such a good husband, paid extra attention to all kinds of prenatal care.
One evening, after dinner, the family of five took their dog for a walk from the main house to the lake. The summer night breeze brought waves of heat.
The two elderly people walked ahead with their son, Zizai, and the dog. Zizai chatted with his grandparents for a while, then turned around and ran towards his parents, covered in sweat.
Before he even got close, he saw his dad holding a mini rechargeable fan that was a hot seller on Taobao, blowing it on his mom's face. The little guy ran closer curiously, tilted his head up, and looked at Yan Shao.
"Daddy, where did you buy this little fan?!"
Yan Shao said openly and honestly, "I bought it from across the street from the restaurant!"
