Upon seeing Shen Jingyan's expression change slightly, Gu Zhiyun immediately gripped her hand nervously.
"Jingya, what's wrong?"
As soon as Chen Jingyan opened her mouth, before she could utter a sound, another wave of pain struck.
It was an indescribable pain, one she had never experienced before in her life.
Yang Zinuo and Feifei were also novices, and they turned pale with fright when they saw this.
Gu Zhiyun had long been familiar with the symptoms of impending childbirth. He supported Shen Jingyan with one hand and her belly with the other, helping her to stand up slowly.
"Feifei, could you please get our hospital bag?"
Feifei quickly ran to the bedroom and took out her hospital bag.
Yang Zinuo ran to open the door.
"Jingya, can you still walk?"
Shen Jingyan tried to take two steps, but the pain made her legs weak.
Without saying a word, Gu Zhiyun picked up Shen Jingyan.
Yang Zinuo and Feifei followed behind, looking flustered.
"Old Gu, are you sure you can manage on your own? Or should I take over for you for a bit?"
Yang Zinuo asked with concern.
In his eyes, Gu Zhiyun had always been a weakling, and he was the one who had to do all the heavy lifting.
Gu Zhiyun glared at him and said, "How can you hug my wife?"
Yang Zinuo: "...Brother, I'm just worried you'll get tired! You think you're so great just because you have a wife? Everyone else does!"

Before entering the delivery room, Gu Zhiyun placed a deep kiss on Shen Jingyan's forehead.
"Honey, I'm waiting for you outside!"
Chen Jingyan was in so much pain that her consciousness was blurred, but she could still clearly feel the warmth of that kiss.
She had just been wheeled in when Fang Ru, Gu Huaiqian, Qiao Suxin, and Xu Honglin rushed over.
An hour later, Old Man Xu arrived, supported by Xu Yatong.
When the old man heard that his granddaughter was about to give birth, he couldn't sit still and insisted on coming to the hospital.
His family was worried about him coming alone, so Xu Yatong entrusted Yuanyuan to Xue Hongmei and accompanied the old man.
The whole family waited anxiously outside the door.
Two hours passed, three hours passed, four hours passed...
The corridor outside the delivery room was unusually quiet, so quiet that you could hear the ticking of Gu Zhiyun's watch.
For four hours, Gu Zhiyun didn't say a word. His lips were tightly pursed, and his hands were gripping his knees so tightly that his knuckles turned white.
Five hours have passed...
Anxiety began to spread through the corridor.
Old Xu was so anxious that he kept tapping his cane: "Why hasn't he come out yet after so long..."
Xu Yatong comforted him, "Grandpa, don't worry, childbirth doesn't happen that quickly."
Qiao Suxin forced a smile and said, "Yes, yes, when Tongtong gave birth to Yuanyuan, she was also inside for seven or eight hours before she came out."
Old Xu kept shaking his head, saying, "It's too much suffering... My granddaughters have suffered too much..."
As he spoke, he glared fiercely at Gu Zhiyun, the "culprit".
Gu Zhiyun's face turned pale, and his hands clenched into fists.
He had never been so nervous in his life, not even during the days he waited for his university acceptance letter.

Yang Zinuo wasn't much better off than Gu Zhiyun; he was already seriously considering whether or not to let Feifei have a child in the future.
Just as Gu Zhiyun looked down at his watch for the tenth time, a loud cry of a newborn baby suddenly came from the delivery room.
The cry immediately broke the tense atmosphere in the corridor.
"It's born! It's born!"
A nurse opened the door and announced the good news: "Congratulations! Mother and baby are safe and sound!"
Gu Zhiyun was the first to stand up, exclaiming in surprise, "What did you say?"
The nurse repeated, word by word, "Mother and child are safe!"
Gu Zhiyun was stunned.
Are mother and child safe?
The nurse looked at him, puzzled: "Are you so happy you've gone crazy? You're a father now! You have a son?"

Gu Zhiyun struggled to process the information the nurse was conveying.
"Are you sure it's a son? You're not mistaken?"
The nurse couldn't help but roll her eyes at him: "How could this be wrong?"
Old Xu clapped his hands and laughed happily: "Hahaha, I have a great-grandson! I have both a great-grandson and a great-granddaughter!"
The family members were all overjoyed and congratulated each other, but Gu Zhiyun just stood there dumbfounded and muttered, "Where's my little darling?"
Half an hour later, the nurse wheeled Shen Jingyan out, while another nurse carried the newly bathed baby.
Gu Zhiyun, Qiao Suxin, and Fang Ru flocked to Shen Jingyan's bedside, offering their concern and care.
Old Man Xu, Xu Honglin, and Gu Huaiqian, three grown men, couldn't squeeze up, so they just stood around the baby and grinned foolishly.
Gu Zhiyun held Shen Jingyan's small hand and whispered gently, "Wife?"
Exhausted, Shen Jingyan opened her eyes a crack and looked at Gu Zhiyun.

"Um."
She answered with only one word before falling into a deep sleep.
Gu Zhiyun whispered in her ear, "Thank you, my wife."
No amount of words can express his feelings at this moment.
All he could do was to dedicate his life to being good to his young wife.
Back in the ward, the nurse instructed the family that Shen Jingyan had just given birth and needed to rest, so she shouldn't make noise and that not too many people needed to stay with her.
So everyone went back, but Gu Zhiyun, Fang Ru, and Qiao Suxin stayed behind to take care of them.
Most of the time, it was Gu Zhiyun who was busy taking care of Shen Jingyan.
Fang Ru and Qiao Suxin spend most of their time taking care of the baby.
Their child was born with fair skin and delicate features. His deep-set eyes and high nose bridge resembled Gu Zhiyun's, while his delicate eyebrows and small mouth resembled Shen Jingyan's.

Qiao Suxin gave her baby a nickname, "Rui Rui," which means "auspicious omen from heaven."
When Shen Jingyan woke up after a period of unconsciousness, Gu Zhiyun immediately stood up and brought her warm water to her lips as soon as she moved.
Fang Ru brought her her first postpartum meal, which was millet porridge made with white fungus, goji berries, and red dates.
Just as Shen Jingyan was about to reach for it, Gu Zhiyun took it from her.
"Jingya, don't move, I'll feed you."
