After the two finished eating, Shen Silan held Ah Li's prenatal checkup report and looked at it.
He needs to learn more so that he won't be caught off guard by unexpected situations.
Ah Li then took Shen Silan's hand and placed it on her stomach, saying, "Touch, the baby is very healthy. He just kicked me."
Shen Silan put down the prenatal checkup report and placed her hand on Ali's belly.
After waiting a short while, he noticed a bulge moving in his palm.
"Is this fetal movement?"
"Um."
Ah Li leaned against Shen Silan's chest and said, "You just got back, go and rest for a bit, your eyes are all bloodshot."
Shen Silan said, "It's okay, I'm not tired."
"Then carry me back to rest, okay?"
Ah Li stretched out her hand and said, "I'm pregnant now, and I'm heavy. You probably can't even carry me."
Shen Silan stood up and said, "You underestimate your husband again."
Shen Silan reached out and picked up Ali. Ali wrapped her arms around Shen Silan's neck and said, "Husband, you're amazing. You're still so strong."
Shen Silan looked at Ali's belly, kissed Ali, and complained softly, "I still prefer my wife to praise me like this when she's doing it."
Once they returned to their room, Ah Li told Shen Silan to wash up and then they could rest together.
Shen Silan took her clothes and went to the bathroom.
After he finished washing up, he found that Ah Li was lying on the bed and seemed to be asleep.
He slowly lay down, and as soon as he reached out his hand, Ah Li leaned closer.
Shen Silan hugged Ah Li, knowing that Ah Li just wanted him to rest well, so he closed his eyes and went to sleep as well.
As the sun was about to set, Ah Li woke up and found that Shen Silan was still sleeping.
He had very dark circles under his eyes and looked very tired; he could usually cover them up somewhat with makeup.
Now, looking at it up close, it's impossible to hide.
Ahri reached out and touched the little mustache that had sprouted on his face. To be honest, it looked a bit weathered, and a bit sexy.
Shen Silan had just woken up from a nap. He smiled gently at Ah Li and said, "Wife, you're awake."
Without a second thought, Ahri kissed him. His beauty was so captivating; it would be a shame not to kiss him enough.
Later, when Ah Li gave birth, Shen Silan accompanied Ah Li to the hospital, without making any pretense.
Old Chen didn't stop others from taking photos, and even if the news was published, no fans would protest.
Because Shen Silan said in an interview on the show "A Date with Lucky Star" that he was not single and had a wife.
As soon as the baby was born, Shen Silan clapped the baby's little hand, made a photo of himself, and posted on Weibo: "[A new member to the family.]"
The comments below were all congratulatory.
At this moment, a nurse led over a staff member whose clothes had the words "Intangible Cultural Heritage" written on them, and the person was carrying a gift box.
The man said it was a mask Ahri had ordered from him, and they had agreed that it would be delivered on the day she gave birth.
Shen Silan didn't open the gift box. He was still thinking that the doctors at this hospital were really accurate in calculating the delivery date.
Ah Li lay in the hospital bed and had Shen Silan sign the receipt list.
Shen Silan signed it, and the staff member left.
Ahri asked Shen Silan to bring the gift box over.
Shen Silan did as instructed, adding, "What's inside? It's quite heavy."
"You'll see when you open it."
As a result, when Shen Silan discovered that there was a mask inside, he felt inexplicably panicked.
Ah Li took the mask from Shen Silan and placed it next to the child.
The mask is decorated with many colorful paintings, and there are feathers and ribbons on the top of the mask.
Before Shen Silan could react, Ah Li took a small needle from somewhere, pricked the little boy's finger, and touched it to the mask's eye.
According to tribal rules, the mask must recognize its owner.
Ahri mumbled a series of incantations, pricked her finger, and smeared her blood on the center of her mask.
This is the former high priest's expectation for the next high priest.
Shen Silan was unaware of the situation, so he didn't go up to disturb him.
After Ahri finished doing all that, she put the mask over Zai Zai's face.
The mask was so big that it completely covered the baby.
Ahri patted her mask and then mumbled something incoherently.
Shen Silan knew that Ah Li was a high priest, so he watched quietly and closed the door, not wanting anyone to come in and disturb him.
After Ah Li finished, she asked Shen Silan to put the mask away.
Shen Silan said half-jokingly, "Wife, are you trying to make our child a high priest too?"
Ah Li looked at Shen Silan. Had this person figured it out?
Seeing Ah Li looking at him with a deep gaze, Shen Silan said, "I've seen the mask you wore back then, and it looks a bit like this, so I was just asking."
Ahri then smiled and said, "I see. This mask is actually for protection."
Shen Silan looked at Ah Li carefully and found that Ah Li's smile was still the same as before, so he didn't ask any more questions.
Later, Ah Li was discharged from the hospital and went home to recuperate after giving birth.
Shen Silan didn't film any movies or attend any events. Instead, he became a stay-at-home dad, taking care of his child and Ah Li.
During Ah Li's postpartum confinement, Shen Silan dared not let her suffer even the slightest grievance. He always made sure to take care of everything and would talk to Ah Li.
The baby doesn't cry or fuss; he eats and then sleeps, and sleeps and then eats again.
As the cub grew up and began to walk, Ahri took it to absorb the essence of the sun and moon.
Shen Silan thought Ah Li was just playing around, but it turned out that their little one was quite serious, sitting cross-legged with Ah Li with his eyes closed.
