Lini was woken up from the micro-world by Hou Yu and hurriedly took Li Ye to the delivery room they had prepared in advance.
Twenty minutes later, Chen Yang arrived as well. He had rushed over, hoping that there wouldn't be any reports about the "Nighttime Flying Man" in Hangzhou the next day.
"How did it go?" Chen Yang asked as soon as he entered the room.
Hou Yu was frantic, pacing back and forth. "I don't know either, it seems like they're delivering a baby."
The sound of Li Ye's pain came from inside the delivery room. Hou Yu had never seen Li Ye express any intense emotions in his life, and now that he heard Li Ye's cries, he was really worried to death.
Lini and Hou Yu's mother went inside to help, while Hou Yu could only watch, wanting to go in but not daring to.
"It's alright, the child is healthy."
Chen Yang stood at the door and listened for a moment, then said, "I can feel the children's souls and their voices. The delivery went very smoothly."
Hou Yu breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and then said to Chen Yang, "Thank you."
"Don't be so polite with me. Let's wait until the baby is born. Have you decided on a name yet?"
"Not yet," Hou Yu said with a smile. "My mother is a bit old-fashioned. She plans to wait until the baby is born, then take the birth date and time to have it calculated before choosing a name."
Chen Yang nodded and didn't say anything more, waiting with Hou Yu.
He came in person to make sure everything was alright. After all, it was the first time a resident of the border region had given birth, and Chen Yang was worried about any unforeseen circumstances. With him there, there was at least an extra layer of security.
In case anything happens to the children, or if Li Ye's delivery is not smooth, Chen Yang can take them to the Outer Boundary Land. He can use the Outer Boundary Land to send them to the hospital, or try to use the spiritual energy of the Outer Boundary Land to help them.
However, when Chen Yang heard the child crying, he knew he didn't need to worry about anything anymore.
He sensed a soul sprouting from its dormancy, blossoming with its tender essence. This soul was so pure, clean, and full of holiness, completely different from the souls of animals. The human soul was clearly on a higher level.
When Hou Yu heard the child crying, he rushed in as well.
Lini was holding the child for Li Ye to see. Li Ye's face was frighteningly pale, but he had the warmest smile on his face.
“It’s a girl,” Li Ye said to Hou Yu with a smile.
Hou Yu nodded, his eyes filled with tears, and hugged Li Ye.
"Thank you for your hard work."
He took his daughter. The baby had just been born, her face was as red as a monkey's, her eyes and eyebrows were all furrowed, and she was crying loudly. She was hardly cute. Only silly TV dramas have babies who open their eyes and suck their fingers right after birth.
However, Hou Yu was still very happy and carefully held the child.
"How can there be such a tiny baby?" Hou Yu murmured incredulously as he held his daughter, while Li Ye watched from the side with a smile.
"Let's call her Xiaoxiao," Li Ye suddenly said.
Hou Yu was taken aback, then looked at his mother.
Hou Yu's mother hesitated for a moment, then frowned. But after seeing Li Ye's pleading look, she immediately gave up her objection.
"Okay, let's call her Xiao Xiao, Hou Xiao Xiao," Hou Yu's mother said.
Hou Yu grinned from ear to ear, wanting to jump for joy, but with the child in his arms, he dared not jump.
"Hou Xiaoxiao, Hou Xiaoxiao, you are Hou Xiaoxiao now, Xiaoxiao is just Hou Xiaoxiao." Hou Yu said repeatedly while holding his daughter.
"Let me hug you too, really!" Hou Yu's mother couldn't help but pat Hou Yu, who then reluctantly handed her daughter to her mother.
Hou Yu's mother held her granddaughter, doting on her immensely, and placed her by the bedside. She and Li Ye looked at the child together. Only then did Hou Yu realize that he had been so focused on looking at the child himself that he hadn't thought to show her to Li Ye. He felt a little embarrassed at that moment.
“Alright, it’s time to hand the child over to me, the doctor,” Lina said.
They prepared state-of-the-art baby care kits for the children and even built a special room outside the boundaries to ensure their healthy growth.
The reason they're located in the Outer Boundary is because Chen Yang can control the temperature and spiritual energy concentration of an area, which is very beneficial for the child. Hou Yu's entire family will also be living in the Outer Boundary.
Chen Yang opened the passage to the outer area, allowing Hou Yu's family to enter. The passage connected directly to the room, ensuring there would be no sudden temperature difference and preventing the child from being exposed to cold drafts.
After arranging everything, Hou Yu finally sat down to rest at the entrance of the nursery outside the boundary. He had been extremely busy.
"How does it feel to be a father?" Chen Yang asked, sitting down next to him.
"I can't explain it, it's so strange. My mind just keeps racing, I'm only thinking about how to take good care of this child and imagining what the future will be like," Hou Yu said.
"The micro-world just gave me a hint that the child can enter the micro-world now to ensure the child's deep sleep. However, whether the child can enter the micro-world is controlled by Li Ye. Li Ye can control the child's state in the micro-world until the child is twelve years old. Of course, I can also control it."
"Does that mean I can finally sleep peacefully?" Hou Yu asked.
"Yes, you won't be woken up by the baby's sudden crying. Breastfeeding can be done within the micro-world, and your physical state will be synchronized, allowing you and the baby to get enough sleep," Chen Yang said.
“However…” Chen Yang said, “To be on the safe side, Li Ye should not enter the micro-world before the baby is one month old. We’ll observe the situation after the baby is one month old.”
Hou Yu nodded and said, "Okay, I've taken a long leave from my company to take care of Li Ye."
Hou Yu thought for a moment, then chuckled awkwardly, "Starting today, I'm a dad. I can't keep working overtime anymore. Anyway, I have more money than I can spend, so I'll just focus on spending time with Li Ye and the kids. I can just do my job casually."
Hou Yu also profited tens of millions from the game "Micro World", and he receives a share of the profits as long as the game continues to run.
Currently, "Micro World" remains a very popular game and is still under continuous development and improvement. Various new maps and technologies are being developed, and players have established one world and camp after another, maintaining a stable player base.
As long as Hou Yu doesn't necessarily want to live a life of extravagance and debauchery, he still has enough money to live on for the rest of his life, so it doesn't matter if he spends a little extravagantly.
Moreover, with Microworld around, how could we possibly worry about money?
As long as you are a resident of the Micro Realm, regardless of whether you were rich or poor before, you will never have to worry about money after entering the Micro Realm for a period of time.
It's not that they directly accept charity from others, but rather that there are so many powerful figures in the micro-world who can easily solve problems with a little help. To be honest, the internal consumption among the people in the micro-world alone is quite substantial.
For example, Jiang Bo's traditional oil pressing workshop only needs regular orders from people within the micro-world. Yin Weilin even wanted to buy all of Jiang Bo's oil as a reward for his employees, but this was met with unanimous opposition from Jiang Bo and other micro-world residents.
In short, the residents don't need to worry too much about their livelihood. Hou Yu can also focus entirely on his family and be a responsible father.
Seeing Hou Yu's appearance, Chen Yang couldn't help but wonder if his own child would be like this after birth.
