Chapter 616 Mid-Autumn Festival
Why are your eyes so red?

When Gu Lanxi woke up, the nurse came to get her IV drip.

The IV needle was still on the back of her hand. After removing the IV bag, they inserted a saline solution to seal the needle. Gu Lanxi felt pain, but she didn't even flinch.

It's much better now than yesterday.

Aside from feeling physically weak, I have a feeling of recovering from a serious illness. I don't know if it's because I'm numb from the pain, but I feel okay.

"I couldn't bear to close my eyes all night looking at the two of you."

Lu Nanting's voice was hoarse as he tucked her hair behind her ear, then lifted her hand and kissed the back of it.

Having grown for more than half a year with very little trimming, Gu Lanxi's thick hair had now grown to shoulder length.

Gu Lanxi's face was slightly pale, but her eyes were full of praise as she looked at him: "You took such good care of the child that I could sleep soundly until dawn."

"The postpartum nanny is very professional."

The Lu family hired a top-notch postpartum nanny at great expense. She was highly skilled and took excellent care of the baby in a scientific and meticulous manner. The responsibilities of each person were clearly defined, minimizing any oversights caused by staff interaction. Lu Nanting didn't sleep all night, but he was so engrossed in looking at his wife and child that he couldn't bear to go to sleep.

"She lay there so tiny in the crib. Yesterday she was all wrinkled, but today she's all smoothed out. At first you couldn't even see her eyelashes and eyebrows, but slowly they started to show color, and you could see them a little bit..."

Gu Lanxi held his hand, patiently listened to him finish speaking, and then lifted his sleeve, touching the purplish-blue marks on his wrist, and spoke with great remorse:

"I couldn't control myself yesterday, I'm sorry, does it hurt?"

Lu Nanting has always been very self-disciplined. He looks thin, but that's just because he has a low body fat percentage. In fact, he has well-developed muscles and is very strong.

“You are in more pain than I am. You just don’t like to complain. I can’t take your pain away from you. If I can make you feel a little bit better, that’s something to be happy about.”

Yesterday afternoon, after returning to her ward, she received an IV of oxytocin. The nurses came over and pressed her abdomen several times to expel lochia and promote uterine contraction, thereby reducing the possibility of massive bleeding. Gu Lanxi knew the importance of this matter, and even though she was in so much pain that she was sweating profusely and had pinched Lu Nanting's wrist until it turned blue, she remained silent.

It has to be said that people often say she's a ruthless person, and the truth behind that statement is becoming increasingly clear.

If it weren't for the extremely strict confidentiality agreement, even a slight leak from a medical staff member who witnessed Gu Lanxi's delivery would probably make headlines.

"Help me up, I need to go to the bathroom."

Last night, when she got out of bed for the first time, she slipped on the ground in pain as soon as her feet touched the ground, feeling as if someone had ripped a hole in her stomach. Luckily, Lu Nanting held her tightly.

These are all necessary processes to go through in order to recover as quickly as possible.

Many people think that it's easier for rich people to have children than for a hen to lay an egg.

In fact, which mother doesn't go through ten months of pregnancy to give birth? And which mother doesn't experience the painful process of childbirth?
"Don't hold me so tightly, let me walk on my own, otherwise it will hinder my recovery."

Seeing that Lu Nanting wanted to carry her away, Gu Lanxi sighed helplessly.

Although her words sounded like an accusation, everyone could hear the happiness in them.

Many young couples have a great relationship in normal times, but when it comes to the time of childbirth, they start arguing constantly.

Aside from special reasons such as preference for sons over daughters, many times when young couples argue, it's because both partners feel unbalanced.

The wife felt she had sacrificed too much for her child, but her husband and his family hadn't given her the attention she deserved, which made her feel wronged.

The husband thought, "So many women have children, why are you so fussy, so troublesome, and so prone to making things difficult for people?"
The wife felt that taking care of the child should be a shared responsibility, and at the very least, the grandparents should come to help. She couldn't let herself endure the physical pain and hardship of taking care of the child alone.

The husband, however, might think that since his wife is staying home to take care of the children and cannot work, the family already has one less source of income. If he continues to focus solely on taking care of the children, how will they manage with all the household expenses?
Baby formula is free?
Diapers are free? For wealthy people, financial issues are less of a concern, but couples often have their own careers, and conflicts can arise.

However, Lu Nanting and his wife never had a quarrel.

Before the child was born, Gu Lanxi never clung to Lu Nanting or asked him to stay home with her. Instead, she always encouraged him to go out and work to realize his self-worth.

After the child was born, Lu Nanting took the initiative to take care of the baby. In addition, he cared about every little need of Gu Lanxi and took meticulous care of his wife and child.

Although it's only been two days, and outsiders can't be sure if he hasn't let go of his idol image and is deliberately creating a persona, it's already very good that he has such an attitude and does things so meticulously and appropriately.

The couple received news that media were lingering outside the hospital as soon as the baby was born. Zhang Mingyuan and Mei Xue worked together to smooth things over and expressed their stance on behalf of the couple. Not wanting to offend anyone, the media quickly left.

The young couple discussed it and took a family photo of the three of them holding hands. They posted it on Weibo with the caption: "From now on, the Mid-Autumn Festival has a different meaning in my heart. Wishing everyone a happy reunion, happiness, and good health."

Little Tuantuan was born naturally on the Mid-Autumn Festival, which was fate.

Not only was she blessed with good fortune, but as the daylight broke and her skin began to unfold, her excellent appearance was revealed. She did not disappoint her parents' good genes, and the entire Lu family was all smiles.

The Lu family, now consisting of eleven members, gathered at the hospital to celebrate a simple yet joyful holiday.

The child was small, ate and slept well, and received excellent care. He grew almost overnight, and by the time he was discharged from the hospital, his big, bright eyes were already staring at people nearby.

Gu Lanxi had a good constitution and recovered quickly.

On the day she was discharged from the hospital, she walked out of the ward by herself.

Her bright red dress and radiant makeup made her impossible to look away from. Everyone who saw her was mesmerized.

She stood up straight, smiled, and looked slightly different from usual.

Those who know her well can sense that her sharp edge is beginning to emerge little by little through her soft exterior.

From now on, she will have another identity: a mother.

Children are both a weakness and a shield.

Lu Nanting was used to holding babies, and his movements were quite skilled.

Gu Lanxi walked ahead carrying her bag, while he followed closely behind, holding the baby.

Little Tuantuan, wrapped in a thin gauze blanket, nestled peacefully in her father's arms. The group went straight from the top-floor suite to the parking lot, got into their car, and returned directly to their own underground garage, without encountering any strangers along the way.

After returning home safely, Tuantuan was a little unaccustomed at first and cried as soon as she was put in the crib.

This kid has a voice like his dad's, high-pitched and loud, and when he cries, it's absolutely deafening.

Lu Nanting had no choice but to put her on the big bed and wrap his arms around her when they slept.

The contrast between the two sizes is particularly interesting.

Gu Lanxi found it amusing and specially brought out her professional camera to take a set of commemorative photos for the two of them.

Lu Nanting got so into taking pictures that he took Tuantuan to change several outfits, and they still felt like they hadn't had enough.

Tuantuan was still asleep, completely unaware that just a few days after she was born, she had already received her first set of official photos.
