As soon as Fu Jiusi's voice came out, the two little guys immediately quieted down.
Beneath the tightly closed eyelids, his eyeballs were moving slightly, as if thinking: Was that Daddy’s voice just now?
Fu Jiusi felt a lump in his throat and tears started to flow.
"I'm sorry, baby. It's Daddy's fault for not protecting Mommy and you..."
At this time, Fu Zhiyan started crying again.
Her little face was wrinkled into a ball, her facial features squeezed together, and every sob caused her body to tremble slightly.
The faint and shrill cry tugged at his heart, causing it to ache.
Influenced by his sister, Fu Huoran also started crying.
The nurse sighed heavily and said helplessly, "You see, that's how it is. When one cries, the other immediately follows."
"At first, the two little guys were placed in two separate incubators."
"When I separated from her, she kept crying and crying until she looked like she was suffocating."
"Later, Dr. Wen said that putting the brother and sister together did have some effect, but not much."
Fu Jiusi carefully patted the two delicate babies with his fingertips, trying to comfort them anxiously.
But his voice didn't work.
The nurse paced back and forth anxiously, "I heard the mother is awake. Why don't we send the baby to her first?"
Fu Jiusi's eyelashes trembled slightly. "Please go find my assistant and get my phone."
The nurse didn't know what he was going to do, but adhering to the principle of family first, she did as he said.
After getting the phone, she put it into a sterilized ziplock bag and handed it to Fu Jiusi.
Fu Jiusi opened his phone, found an audio file and clicked it.
The familiar and warm heartbeat rhythm sounded, and the two babies seemed to be paused.
The little mouth was still open, but the crying had stopped.
"Is that the mother's heartbeat?" The head nurse breathed a sigh of relief and gave a thumbs-up in approval. "This trick is really great!"
Fu Jiusi forced himself to stand beside the incubator with his exhausted body, comforting the two babies.
After the baby calmed down completely, he took a cotton swab and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of the baby's eyes.
Then, take the bottle from the nurse and feed the baby.
Even after feeding them, he was reluctant to leave. He supported himself on the table where the incubator was placed with his hands and looked at his baby daughter and son quietly.
Because they were born prematurely, the skin of these two little ones is as thin as a cicada's wing, delicate and transparent, as if it would break with the slightest touch.
The pink color is tinged with a faint purple, and the blood vessels are clearly visible, intertwined like fine silk threads.
Because they were born prematurely, the two babies lacked enough fat on their skin surface, so it was not smooth and was a little wrinkled.
The tiny arms were only as thick as his thumbs and could not move freely. They would only twitch unconsciously occasionally, as if trying to adapt to this new world.
The little fingers are slender and soft, like delicate flower stamens.
After the two babies were full, they listened to their mother's heartbeat, hugged each other unconsciously, and fell asleep in each other's arms.
The two little ones curled up together, exuding a fragility that made people feel distressed.
Fu Jiusi really wanted to hug the two little ones, but she didn't dare to, for fear that she might accidentally hurt the babies.
"Mr. Fu, why don't you go and take care of your wound first?" the nurse reminded.
"That's right, I have to go see the baby's mother," Fu Jiusi took a video of the baby before leaving reluctantly.
As they walked out of the NICU, Wu Qian came forward to support him, "Mr. Fu, I'll take you to bandage your wound."
Fu Jiusi looked down at his palms and saw that the inside of his rubber gloves was stained red with his blood.
"Let's go up and see the baby's mother first." He quickened his pace towards the elevator, wishing he could see her immediately.
According to regulations, he can visit the ICU ward for five minutes.
But when he arrived at the door of the ward, he could only lie down at the door and look at her from afar through the glass.
"Mr. Fu, you should go and take care of your wound first. You'll scare your wife if you look like this."
Fu Jiusi was silent for a moment and turned around.
He had just taken two steps when he fell to the ground with a bang.
He has a fever.
After a night of rain, the wind and cold came fiercely and the temperature went straight up to 39.7°.
Wu Qian wanted to carry him, but he couldn't. He felt weak and powerless all over.
He touched his forehead and murmured, "I feel a little feverish too."
They had to borrow a wheelchair and, with the help of a male nurse, "transport" Fu Jiusi to the ward.
After watching the nurse bandage Fu Jiusi's wound and hang up the IV drip, he asked the nurse to do the same for him.
In the blink of an eye, it was the next afternoon.
Fu Jiusi suddenly opened his eyes, his breathing became rapid and disordered, his eyes were full of fear.
His heart was beating so hard that even his hair was shaking slightly.
Wu Qian, who was guarding the bedside, was startled by him, "What's wrong, Mr. Fu?"
"Are you having a nightmare?" Wu Qian took a tissue and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
Fu Jiusi pushed him away, rolled off the bed, and ran out barefoot.
"Madam is awake!" Wu Qian chased after him and hugged him, "Mr. Fu, Madam and the babies are all safe and sound."
Fu Jiusi closed his eyes and breathed a long sigh of relief.
"I'll go see them."
"I'll stay with you," Wu Qian said, bringing over his coat and shoes. "You had a fever and were unconscious for a whole day and night."
"Doctor Wen has been staying with Madam in the ICU, never leaving her side. Madam's condition is improving."
"The two babies have been listening to my wife's heartbeat and haven't cried or made a fuss. They are eating well and sleeping soundly. They are doing very well."
Fu Jiusi patted his shoulder gratefully, "Wu Qian..."
Wu Qian looked up at him, only to see that he seemed to be hesitant to speak.
