Chapter 7: Twins

Another burst of baby crying came from the closed delivery room.

Zhou Dagui was stunned, "Why is there another one?"

Zhou Nuan was the only woman in labor in the delivery room, so how could the sound of two babies crying be heard?

He Rongsheng naturally knew it. He snorted and sat back in his chair.

It was a great relief for the Gu family, as they gave birth to two children at once!

Gu Xiyue frowned deeply, and no one knew what he was thinking.

The door was opened from the inside, and a young nurse poked her head out. "Family of the woman giving birth, family of the woman giving birth?"

"Zhou Nuan." Gu Xiyue said.

The young nurse was stunned for a moment and looked at the tall man in confusion.

"Her name is Zhou Nuan." Gu Xiyue said again.

The young nurse was a little at a loss. The woman came in a hurry and had already been put on the delivery bed before she could ask clearly. She only saw the three words "Gu Xiyue" written in the family column on the payment slip, so she kept calling her that.

"Zhou, Zhou Nuan's family, two children were born, a brother and a sister. Both the adults and the children are safe."

When Qin Yuezhi heard that there were really two children, she excitedly grabbed Gu Xiyue's hand, "Xiyue! That's great, they are twins! Xiao Nuan has done a great job!"

After the excitement, she remembered that the baby was not yet full-term, and asked nervously, "How is the baby? Is he okay?"

"The child is a little weak, but the problem is not serious. He will be observed in the hospital for a while. If he is fine, he can be taken home."

Qin Yuezhi breathed a sigh of relief.

Gu Xiyue frowned deeply, "Where's Zhou Nuan?"

The young nurse said, "The mother is fine, come in and push her back to the ward."

No one in the Zhou family moved, as if Zhou Nuan had nothing to do with them. They ignored her and asked nothing, causing the young nurse to look at them curiously several times.

Zhou Nuan is the only woman giving birth today. These people should be her relatives, but why don’t they care about her at all?

Gu Xiyue said nothing and followed the nurse in.

The delivery room had become quiet, as if the screams of pain had never existed. Zhou Nuan had changed into her hospital gown and was lying quietly on the bed, her eyes slightly closed, her face full of fatigue.

Beside her, there was a baby on each side. One was sleeping with his eyes closed like his mother, while the other, smaller one, was turning left and right with his gray eyes open. It was unclear whether she could see clearly.

Gu Xiyue's gaze met hers, and he held his breath for a moment.

The newborn baby is very small, with a small face, small eyes and nose. She is not like other babies who are wrinkled by the amniotic fluid when they are born. She is very clean, with black and shiny hair, and tender and white skin. She is a pretty little beauty.

There was an indescribable complex emotion spreading wildly in his heart, and he didn't even realize that a doting smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

This is his child.

It was Gu Xiyue’s child, a small, soft ball.

"This is the younger sister." The nurse patted her and pointed to the other one who was sleeping soundly with his eyes closed, "That's the older brother."

"The child is fine, but a little weak. Let's observe him first. You are lucky that you sent him to school in time. If you were late or gave birth at home, I'm afraid it would be a difficult birth."

The young nurse and another nurse picked up the child and said, "Family member Zhou Nuan, please go back to the ward first."

Gu Xiyue reluctantly watched the nurse take his children away. When he lowered his head, he saw that Zhou Nuan had woken up at some point, and her round eyes were glaring at him angrily.

“…”

"Gu, Xiyue?"

Zhou Nuan really wanted to kill the man in front of her. She wanted to kill two people, one was the damned author, and the other was the stinky man who made her original body pregnant. She definitely couldn't kill the author, so she could only vent her grief and anger on the man in front of her.

I would like to ask, who is as unlucky as her? Others were able to become mothers painlessly, but she gave birth in extreme pain. The most important thing is that she didn’t even have a good time!!

I have never felt such pain in my two lives.

Gu Xiyue touched the newly emerged stubble on his chin and thought to himself: I just grew a little beard, so she can't recognize me?

After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Thank you for your hard work."

It would have been fine if she hadn't mentioned this, but as soon as Zhou Nuan mentioned this, she felt so aggrieved that she couldn't hold it in any longer, and her eyes started to turn red.

It's not hard work. She never thought in her past life or this life that she would be able to give birth to a baby, let alone two. In the real world, she was still a child who was pampered and raised by her parents. When had she ever suffered such hardship?

She was still a baby herself, and now she has become a baby's mother. How could she not feel sad?

Her tears came without warning, and before Gu Xiyue could react, the person in front of him was already shedding tears. The tip of her nose was red, and her lips, which looked pale due to blood loss, were trembling, making her look even more pitiful.

The head nurse who just happened to come in saw this and quickly reprimanded, "What's going on? You can't let the woman get emotional at this time. Comrade, your wife has finally given birth to two children for you, how can you make her angry?"

Gu Xiyue: “…”

What did he say?

Seeing the tall Gu Xiyue lowering his head while being scolded by the short head nurse, Zhou Nuan felt a little relieved.

No matter who you are in normal times, you can only be a grandson in the hospital.

After being scolded by the head nurse, Gu Xiyue looked at Zhou Nuan with the false accusation. The latter's sad and angry expression calmed down a little. She pouted her mouth, obviously still feeling aggrieved, but she finally stopped crying.

His eyes darkened a little, and a hint of doubt flashed across them.

Zhou Nuan seemed to be different from before. She couldn't hide her fear and disgust when she saw him before, but now...

Before he had time to think about it, the grumpy head nurse was already urging him to take Zhou Nuan back to the ward to vacate the delivery room for the next woman to arrive.

Gu Xiyue said nothing. He bent down and easily picked up Zhou Nuan, who stood up and wanted to get out of bed by herself. The light feeling of her hand made him frown.

He had not thought much about it just now because he arrived in a hurry. But now he realized that she was really too thin. How could she give birth to two children with such a thin body?

Haven’t you eaten?

Zhou Nuan was startled by the sudden feeling of weightlessness. Without thinking, she put her arms around Gu Xiyue's neck. Although the man looked dusty, his smell was not bad. He was strange yet overbearing.

In Zhou Nuan's twenty-three years of life, apart from her father and brother who were so close to her when she was a child, no man had ever been so close to her.

She was a little afraid of heights, and she held Gu Xiyue tightly, with a hint of fear in her voice.

"Gu, Gu Xiyue, you have to hold me tight and don't let go."
