Ye Snr. considered this matter for a moment before he said, “Send the child over to Qin Garden when she is six months old then.”
They were the child’s grandparents and these days, there were many children who were raised by their grandparents. Furthermore, they had experience in child-rearing, so they would certainly do a better job than their kids.
Ye Snr. had clearly forgotten how Ye s.h.i.+yu had turned out to be.
Ye Snr. and his wife stayed till nightfall before they finally left and He Xiyan finally heaved a sigh of relief after they’ve left, afraid that they would try to take her daughter away to Qin Garden.
The hospital ward quieted down and Xi Xi who had just been fed also fell asleep.
Ye Hao held his daughter and sat beside the hospital bed. He had been holding her for the past two to three hours but he couldn’t bear to let go. His daughter was only a newborn and didn’t know anything but he couldn’t help but try to play with his daughter. Naturally, he didn’t receive any response from her since the newborn Xi Xi was only either sleeping or feeding and spent most of her time asleep.
He held her for a while longer, then carefully handed the child to the confinement nanny and walked toward the bedside to take He Xiyan’s hand in his.
A familiar warmth traveled from his hand to hers and he smiled at his wife. Then, he brought her hand to his lips and dropped a soft kiss on it.
“Thanks, Yan Yan,” Ye Hao felt very contented. He finally had his own child today, a child of his blood and this was the first time he had experienced such an emotional event.
He Xiyan smiled as well. She now had both a daughter and a son, as well as a husband who loved her dearly. She had never imagined that she would one day experience such happiness.
She held Ye Hao’s hand tightly in hers and wove their fingers together. Before she knew it, a teardrop fell from the corner of her eye because she was so touched.
Ye Hao looked at her belly and gently lifted up her loose hospital gown to reveal the scar from her operation that was still slightly red.
His heart clenched and his eyes burned as though a piece of sand had gotten into it.
“Was it very painful?” he asked.
He Xiyan gently released her tightly pursed lips and nodded.
It had indeed hurt, especially the moment when the knife cut into her skin. She did not really react well to anaesthesia so fortunately, thanks to the method the doctors deployed to numb the pain, she did not feel as though the pain was completely unbearable.
She had honestly been extremely frightened and sweat covered her entire body. She felt as though she had barely escaped death earlier.
She did not dare to look at the doctors during the entire procedure and had kept her eyes tightly shut.
She only opened them after she heard her child cry.
“It’s been tough on you, Yan Yan,” Ye Hao said in a low voice. Then, he gently tucked her blankets around her.
The corners of her lips curved upwards slightly.
“It’s fine, Ye Hao. There have been other mothers who have also undergone this procedure,” Yan Yan said lightly. When she was afraid, she continually told herself that since other women did not fear this procedure, she should not give in to fear herself. Furthermore, every woman would have to go through the birthing process and once it was over, that was the end of her pain.
Qin Xiaoyu rushed in after receiving a call and said, “Sir, Ma’am, Menglin just called to say that Yuan Yuan has fallen ill and has a fever of more than 39 degrees. They are rus.h.i.+ng him over to this hospital right now.”
He Xiyan was stunned and the smile that still hung from her face earlier had frozen. Her heart clenched and she felt cold sweat run down her spine.
Ye Hao suddenly lifted his head and frowned.
“What happened?” He looked at Qin Xiaoyu who just entered the room.
