Chapter 282 performed very well.
The baby has a pair of big, watery eyes with very dark pupils, like grapes.
Moreover, many babies are wrinkled when they are first born, and it is only as they grow that their appearance becomes discernible.
But their baby was born with fair and tender skin, and with such beautiful big eyes that resembled his mother's, he couldn't possibly be bad-looking.
Yu Li stretched out two fingers and gently pinched the little guy's cheek.
It is as smooth and soft as an egg, like your finger sinking into a cloud.
“The baby’s nose and mouth look more like yours. I knew that our baby would be good-looking.”
It has to be said that the little guy is really good-looking, perfectly combining the best features of his parents' looks.
As if the baby understood Yu Li's words, it suddenly giggled at her.
Yu Li was overjoyed: "The baby smiled at me? Oh my god, don't all newborn babies cry? Could our baby be a prodigy who can smile right after birth?"
Qi Chenyan was not modest at all: "With our intelligence, I think it would be difficult for us to have a stupid child. Whether it inherits from Lili or me, it will be a genius baby."
"However, when the baby was first brought out, the nurse said that she had never cried since she was born. She would smile as soon as she was born. She is a very rare angel baby."
Yu Li's heart was practically melting from the baby's cuteness.
She originally wanted to hold the baby, but Qi Chenyan was afraid that she would aggravate her wound, so he held the baby instead and sat on the edge of the bed. Apart from not being able to hold the baby, he could touch, pinch, and hold the baby's hand.
"The baby smiles so much, how about calling him Xiaoxiao (Smiling) as his nickname? What do you think?"
Qi Chenyan naturally had no objections. "Xiaoxiao, do you like the nickname your mother gave you?"
The baby giggled again, and even grabbed one of Yu Li's fingers with his little hand.
Whether it was a coincidence or not, Yu Li was stunned.
“Our little Xiaoxiao is such a genius! She was just born, but she already knows who her mother is and wants to hold her mother’s hand. She’s so well-behaved and wants her mother to kiss her.”
Yu Li kissed the baby's right cheek and then said, "Daddy, give me a kiss too."
Qi Chenyan kissed Yu Li's forehead first. Since they were in front of the baby, Yu Li was a little embarrassed and coughed to remind him, "I wanted you to kiss Xiaoxiao."
"Kiss mom first, then kiss baby."
Yu Li tilted her head back and quickly kissed Qi Chenyan's lips.
"Then I'll kiss the baby first, and then kiss the dad."
The family atmosphere was warm and cozy when a teasing voice came from the doorway: "My goddaughter is so young, and you two, as her parents, are kissing and cuddling in front of her. Have you ever considered my goddaughter's physical and mental health?"
"The baby has a nickname, Xiaoxiao."
Qi Xi leaned over and pinched the baby's soft, chubby cheeks. "The baby smiles so much, so the name Xiaoxiao is perfect. As expected of my Lili, she's a first-rate name-giver. But have you decided on a formal name for Xiaoxiao yet?"
"We've thought of a few names, but we're planning to decide after the baby is born. However, we need to get the baby's birth certificate within three days, so we should settle on Xiaoxiao's name as soon as possible."
Qi Xi said, "Then let's all put in some effort. You've come up with a few names, let's all choose one together?"
Qi Chenyan said, "Since it's Xiaoxiao's name, why don't we let her choose it herself?"
Yu Li tilted her head. "Xiaoxiao can't even speak yet, how can we choose a name? Although she can smile and recognize her mother as soon as she is born, she is not a child prodigy who can recognize words. If she is, she is not a child prodigy, but a deity. Please, Director Qi, do not make things difficult for a one-day-old baby."
Qi Chenyan chuckled and patted his wife's head.
"It seems our Pear is experiencing the 'pregnancy brain' that lasts for three years. Although Xiaoxiao can't read, she can still draw lots."
Yu Li snorted, "You think I'm stupid?"
The henpecked Director Qi immediately corrected himself: "I misspoke. My wife is the smartest person in the world. I am ashamed to admit that I am not as smart as her."
That's more like it.
Qi Chenyan wrote down several alternative names on a piece of paper, crumpled them into balls, and then shuffled them all and placed them in front of the baby.
"Xiaoxiao, come here, Daddy will teach you how to grab a crumpled piece of paper from inside."
Qi Chenyan led Xiaoxiao's little hand forward, but the baby didn't grab it at first; instead, she just touched and fumbled around randomly.
But everyone waited patiently. Suddenly, the baby grabbed one of the crumpled pieces of paper and held it very tightly.
Yu Li immediately clapped her hands, "Wow, Xiaoxiao is so great! She learned it so quickly, she's a little prodigy!"
Qi Chenyan took the crumpled paper from Xiaoxiao's hand and unfolded it in front of everyone.
It had two words written on it: Starlight.
Qi Xi leaned closer and read aloud, "Qi Xingzhuo, what a beautiful name!"
Yu Li explained the meaning behind the name: "The moon shines far away in the clouds, and the stars sparkle among the rosy clouds. It seems that Xiaoxiao is very good at choosing a name."
Since Xiaoxiao chose the name herself, that's how the baby's formal name was decided.
Qi Chenyan went to get the baby's birth certificate.
Taking advantage of this break, Qi Xi showed the DV camera to Yu Li.
"Lili, let me tell you a secret. During the hour you were in the delivery room, your uncle was pacing around anxiously outside, and he wouldn't even listen to what we were saying."
“Didn’t you say before that you wanted to record this important moment? I thought it would be most appropriate for my uncle to film it, but when I gave him the DV, he didn’t even glance at it and just stared straight at the delivery room.”
Yu Li was still somewhat skeptical. "Would Shen Yan really be at a loss? That shouldn't be possible, right?"
After all, Yu Li couldn't imagine that Director Qi, who remained unmoved even when facing foreign media, would lose his temper outside the delivery room.
"Why would I lie to you? I'll show you the video. Even Grandpa joked that only you, Lili, can handle him."
Before the recording, Qi Chenyan's face was tense, and even through the screen, one could feel his anxiety.
Before there was any movement in the delivery room, Qi Chenyan walked back and forth in this small space.
Even though everyone else advised him that she would be fine, Qi Chenyan didn't sit down for a single moment.
As soon as there was any movement in the delivery room, Qi Chenyan rushed over.
But when the nurse held the baby and congratulated him, he only glanced at her briefly and did not hug the baby immediately.
While everyone else was focused on the child, he rushed to Yu Li, who had just been pushed out, took her hand, and softly called her name.
Yu Li also noticed a detail: Qi Chenyan's hand was trembling when he held hers.
This clearly shows how nervous and worried he was during the process.
"How about it, Lili? I didn't lie to you, did I? But I have to say, Uncle's performance is enough to beat 90% of the men in the world."
“I’ve seen online before that while the wife was giving birth, the men waiting outside were playing video games, saying that once the game was over, the baby would be born.”
Qi Xi angrily put her hands on her hips and accused, "They really don't feel the pain themselves. Don't be so carefree. You know, this world is still unfair. Women carry a child for ten months and risk their lives to give birth to the baby."
"The man only contributed sperm, so why should the child take the man's surname after it's born?"
However, Qi Xi added, "Of course, Uncle performed very well today. Considering his performance, it's barely acceptable to let Xiaoxiao take his surname."
