"Everyone's body is different. You look great like this, you look very pregnant."
"It's ugly! It's not beautiful at all!"
Zhang Yuanyuan pouted, looking down on herself, while putting another small persimmon into her mouth.
An Yiruo couldn't help but laugh while watching.
Zhang Yuanyuan's belly grew bigger day by day, and Lu Ze was worried, so he applied for maternity leave from An Yiruo in advance.
As someone who's been through it all, and also Zhang Yuanyuan's best friend and boss, there was no reason for me to disagree. I sent her home that very day.
At the same time, I also told her some things to pay attention to in the later stages of pregnancy.
One night, while Zhang Yuanyuan was fast asleep, she felt something wet beneath her.
After testing it, I belatedly realized that my water had broken.
She froze, unsure what to do, and nervously patted Lu Ze beside her. At the same time, she called out his name.
"Wife, what's wrong?" Lu Ze, who was already on edge, sat up instantly when Zhang Yuanyuan gently patted him.
"Lu Ze, honey... I think... I'm going into labor!"
"Honey, don't be afraid. How are you feeling right now?"
"I...I think...my water broke," Zhang Yuanyuan said, her voice slightly trembling with tears.
"Don't be afraid, I'll go get something. You lie down for a while," Lu Ze said, placing a pillow under Zhang Yuanyuan.
At the same time, he called An Yiruo, worried that he couldn't handle it alone.
"Don't worry, senior brother. We'll be right there." After receiving the call, An Yiruo immediately went to get dressed.
After going downstairs, she told Aunt Li to go to Mo Yuchu's room, worried that Xingxing would be scared if she woke up and couldn't find her.
After giving her instructions, she and Mo Jingchen hurriedly went to the hospital.
When they arrived at the hospital, Zhang Yuanyuan was already in the ward.
"Yuanyuan, has the doctor examined you?"
"Yi Ruo, you're here! The doctor just came to check me out and said my pelvis is too narrow, so I need a C-section!"
"What should I do, Yi Ruo? I'm a little scared!" Zhang Yuanyuan held An Yi Ruo's hand and expressed her fear.
She had been preparing for a natural birth! But today she was suddenly notified that she had to go into surgery...
Her feelings... need no explanation!
"Don't be afraid, trust the doctor."
After being admitted to the hospital, Zhang Yuanyuan underwent preoperative examinations.
He was then taken to the operating room.
Half an hour later, with the sound of a baby crying, Zhang Yuanyuan's little darling was born.
Lying on the operating table, she hadn't even realized what was happening before her child was born.
The transformation from a young girl to a mother took only a short thirty minutes.
No wonder there's a saying circulating online: on the day of delivery, a girl is wheeled in, and a mother is wheeled out.
That girl remained in the delivery room forever. Nothing seemed to have changed, yet everything seemed to have changed!
"Honey, you've worked so hard," Lu Ze said, tears welling in his eyes, as he kissed his wife.
Zhang Yuanyuan shook her head silently, tears sliding down her cheeks.
"It's a daughter, she looks like you, she's very pretty," Lu Ze said softly to Zhang Yuanyuan.
"Um."
Back in the ward, everyone was playing with the child, but Lu Ze stayed by Zhang Yuanyuan's bedside, observing her condition.
He held her hand, so she could fall asleep peacefully in the unfamiliar environment.
"Honey, look at this tiny little thing, so soft and cuddly, so cute!" An Yiruo looked at the little one in front of her, and a part of her heart seemed to melt.
“Xingxing looked just like this when he was born. White, soft, and tiny,” Mo Jingchen said, putting his arm around An Yiruo’s shoulder, thinking of his son when he was little.
"Senior brother, what should we name the baby? Have you decided yet?"
An Yiruo looked at the baby and asked Lu Ze the baby's name. However, Lu Ze didn't seem to hear her and didn't reply immediately.
“Senior brother? Lu Ze?” An Yiruo turned around and called his name again.
"Hmm? What's wrong?"
"I'm asking you, have you two decided on a name for the baby yet?"
"I've decided, I'll name her Lu Xiyuan."
An Yiruo silently repeated the name in her heart several times and thought it sounded very nice.
But thinking about it carefully, Lu Xiyuan, Xiyuan... doesn't that just mean he likes Yuanyuan?
This senior brother... he really is... too good at it!
An Yiruo and Mo Jingchen did not linger, leaving the time for the family of three inside the house.
On the way back, An Yiruo thought of Zhang Yuanyuan's words and tentatively asked Mo Jingchen, "Honey, are you really not planning to have any more children?"
"Does my wife not believe me?"
"But it's not that I don't believe it. It's just that I feel that a family like the Mo family must want to have more descendants."
The two people walked hand in hand along the side of the road.
It was already daylight outside, and the sun was about to pierce through the clouds, revealing a sliver of light.
Even so, I don't want you to suffer. I don't want you to experience the pain of childbirth a second time.
Whenever he recalls the day An Yiruo gave birth, Mo Jingchen's emotions remain unsettled for a long time.
Thinking of the suffering An Yiruo endured to give birth to Mo Yuchu, Mo Jingchen wished even more that he could take her through the suffering.
"Actually, it doesn't hurt that much."
"You've forgotten the pain once the wound heals! Have you forgotten how you screamed your heart out in the delivery room?" Mo Jingchen turned around and flicked An Yiruo's nose.
They then continued to hold hands and went to a breakfast shop near the hospital.
After breakfast, Mo Jingchen drove An Yiruo back to Bihai Yunting. After tidying up briefly and changing his clothes, he went straight to the company.
"Aren't you going to rest for a while? After all, you were up all night last night."
"No, I have a meeting today, it's quite important. Assistant Zhou can't handle it alone."
"Wow, you're portraying a considerate boss today!"
"Mr. Mo, who used to exploit Assistant Zhou, is actually thinking of Assistant Zhou's best interests today. That's truly rare!"
An Yiruo sat on the edge of the bed, watching dramas on her tablet while joking with Mo Jingchen.
"Since An'an is so energetic, why don't you come to the company with me to work overtime!"
"Huh? I don't want to go! I want to catch up on my sleep."
"It's too late! Let's go!"
"I'm not going."
"Two choices: you walk by yourself, or I'll carry you!" Mo Jingchen, dressed in a black suit, leaned against the door frame, his arms naturally crossed in front of his chest, tilting his head and looking at An Yiruo with a slight smile.
"Is it absolutely necessary to go?" An Yiruo pouted and asked him tentatively.
"We absolutely have to go!"
Having received an affirmative answer, An Yiruo stretched out her arms and looked at Mo Jingchen not far away: "Hug me~ I'm tired, I can't walk anymore!"
Mo Jingchen's lips curled up slightly, as if he had expected An Yiruo's action.
He strode towards An Yiruo, then swept her up in a princess carry, lifting her into the air.
