Chapter 748 The Child is Back
When Jiang Mubai woke up, Cheng Yunchuan had already finished his breakfast.
"Why didn't you wake me up?"
"I saw you were sleeping and thought you would feel better, so I didn't wake you up. Do you want to eat now or lie down for a while?"
"I better get up. I went to bed so early last night and I've had enough rest now. I won't be able to fall asleep if I lie down again. I might as well get up and eat something. I'm hungry anyway."
"Okay, then I'll help you go to the bathroom to wash up. Aunt Zhou, can you please heat up Mu Bai's breakfast for a while?"
"I see. Go wash up quickly. It'll be quick to heat up breakfast. Don't waste time or else it won't taste good if you heat it up again when it gets cold."
"Okay, let's go now."
It was half an hour later when Jiang Mubai finished washing up and eating breakfast. After eating, she sat on the sofa to digest her food. She didn't see Jiang An, so she couldn't help asking, "Dad didn't come to the hospital with you today?"
"No, Mr. Jiang still has some things to deal with at the company. It would be a waste of time to come to the hospital first and then go to the company, so he plans to go directly to the company to deal with the things before coming to the hospital to see you and the baby. When we left the villa this morning, we didn't leave in the same car."
"So that's how it is. Company matters are more important. Aunt Zhou and Yunchuan are taking care of me in the hospital. It doesn't matter if Dad doesn't come."
"Mr. Jiang will come after he finishes his work. You and the baby are still in the hospital. He will come to the hospital to see you once no matter how busy he is."
"I don't really care about the details, but I'm afraid that my dad will be too busy at work and he will have to come to the hospital to see me. I think that's too much trouble."
"How could that be? You are still in the hospital. Although Mr. Jiang can't help you much, he would feel relieved if he came to see you in person."
Cheng Yunchuan, who was listening to the conversation between Jiang Mubai and Zhou Xiaoying, couldn't help but say, "Don't worry about these things anymore. He will take care of them. Mubai, don't worry about them."
"Okay, I just don't want to see my dad distracted by my affairs."
Not long after breakfast, the nurse came to the ward to inform the family to bring the child back.
Jiang Mubai was so excited after hearing this. She wanted to go to the third floor with Cheng Yunchuan and Zhou Xiaoying but was stopped by them.
"It's quite windy outside today, Mu Bai, don't go out and just stay in your room. It would be bad if you get sick from the wind. Xiao Cheng and I will go alone, and we promise to bring the child back to you as soon as we pick him up."
"Yes, didn't the nurse just say that the doctor will come to the ward for rounds later? I'll stay here with you, and let Aunt Zhou go to the third floor alone to bring the baby back."
"No, I'll just wait in the ward by myself. Yunchuan, you should go to the third floor with Aunt Zhou and bring the child back."
"Auntie can hold the baby by herself. I'll stay with you in the ward while we wait for the doctor to come and check it out."
Seeing that Cheng Yunchuan insisted on staying with Jiang Mubai in the ward, Zhou Xiaoying had to go to the third floor alone.
A large group of family members who came to pick up their children were crowded on the third floor. Zhou Xiaoying did not go into the crowd but planned to wait outside for those people to take her child away before she went over.
In the ward, after Zhou Xiaoying left, the doctor immediately examined Jiang Mubai. Jiang Mubai's physical condition had recovered well. If she rested well in the hospital for a while and didn't get too tired, she could be discharged.
After the doctor explained some things, he left. Zhou Xiaoying confirmed the information with the nurses and took the child back. Everyone knew that Zhou Xiaoying was with the people in the ward on the fifth floor, and they could always see Zhou Xiaoying coming to the third floor to see the child, so the nurses felt at ease leaving the child in the care of Zhou Xiaoying.
After Jiang Mubai and Cheng Yunchuan sent the doctor away, they waited in the ward. Jiang Mubai was extremely anxious.
"Why hasn't Aunt Zhou come back yet? It feels like she's been gone for a long time."
"Maybe there are too many people picking up their children. Don't worry, Mu Bai."
"Yunchuan, go check on the situation, otherwise I'll always feel a little uneasy."
Seeing Jiang Mubai so worried, Cheng Yunchuan couldn't bear to see him like this, so he planned to stand up and go to the third floor to check the situation, but before he walked out of the ward, he saw Zhou Xiaoying walk in with the child in her arms.
"I'm back. The baby is fine. Come and see him!"
Cheng Yunchuan surrounded Zhou Xiaoying and sat down on the sofa. The little guy was not asleep at the moment and was full of energy and curious about the world. He was not afraid of strangers approaching, but kept staring at Cheng Yunchuan.
Jiang Mubai immediately sat down next to Zhou Xiaoying after seeing this, "Baby, I'm your mother!"
"Come, while the little guy is not crying now, Mu Bai, come and hug the child."
"Okay!"
Zhou Xiaoying freed her hands and handed the child to Jiang Mubai. The little guy was not shy at all and started dancing after being taken over by Jiang Mubai. Anyone who saw it could tell that the little guy was very happy.
"The little guy knows you. He was so happy when I took him from the nurse just now. He must know that I go to the third floor to see him from time to time. This child is really different from others."
Seeing that Cheng Yunchuan was also very curious, Zhou Xiaoying stood up and gave her seat to him so that the couple could take a good look at the child.
Looking at the fair and clean child, Cheng Yunchuan couldn't help but stretch out his fingers and gently poke the child's face.
"What a soft face! The little one is so cute and fair-skinned. Isn't he so adorable? He is indeed our child."
Afraid of hurting the little guy, when Cheng Yunchuan was about to withdraw his hand, the little guy reached out and grabbed Cheng Yunchuan's fingers.
Such interaction amazed Jiang Mubai and Zhou Xiaoying who were watching from the side. The most excited one among them was Cheng Yunchuan himself. After all, it was his fingers that were held in the little guy's hand, and he could personally experience how strong the little guy's hand was.
"He's really strong. Look, he kept holding my hand and didn't want to let go! And he reacted very quickly. When I was about to let go, he grabbed it in an instant!"
"Yeah, I've never seen a child like this before. It's a blessing for both of you, Mu Bai and Xiao Cheng, to have a child like this!"
"Did the baby eat anything this morning? If he didn't, would he be very hungry? Should we feed him some milk or something?"
"No, the nurse told me to feed them when I brought them back. If I feed the little guy now, he won't be able to eat. Let's wait until he's hungry."
"The villa has made you some crucian carp soup these days to help you increase your milk supply. Seeing that you drink the soup every day, our little one shouldn't be hungry. Did the nurse give you a bowel movement when she came this morning?"
Hearing Zhou Xiaoying talking about this matter without any reservation, Jiang Mubai and Cheng Yunchuan's faces turned slightly red.
"Yes, I know what to do, Aunt Zhou."
"It's okay even if you don't know. Auntie is very experienced. If you don't know, I can teach you. It must be very swollen, right? There is no other way for the sake of the child. If it is swollen, you can suck out the excess first, and then keep it warm so that the child can eat it directly when he is hungry."
"Okay."
"I've washed and dried all those bottles and stuff. If you ever feel bloated, just tell me and I'll teach you how to use them."
"I see. Fortunately, you are here with me, Aunt Zhou. Otherwise, we two new parents would not know what to do."
"We all go through this. No one is born to be a parent. When I gave birth to my first child, I knew nothing just like you."
