Chapter 148 Harbor of Love
The door of the delivery room slowly opened, and a nurse came out holding a baby wrapped in light blue swaddling clothes, with an expression of joy that could not be concealed on her face: "Congratulations, Mr. Xiang, it's a boy, both mother and child are safe!"
Hearing the words "mother and child are safe", Xiang Yu, who had been waiting outside the door, finally let go of his worries. He couldn't wait to take the child from the nurse, his eyes fell on the child's red face, and a tenderness he had never felt before surged in his heart. The child was very well behaved, sleeping quietly with his eyes closed, his long eyelashes like two small fans, casting a faint shadow on his fair face.
"Where is Jin'er? How is she?" Xiang Yu raised his head and looked at the nurse, his eyes full of concern.
"Miss Yan is fine and is resting," the nurse said with a smile, "Please stay here with the child first. I will go call Miss Yan's family."
Xiang Yu patted the child's back gently and whispered, "Baby, I'm daddy, welcome you to this world..." His voice was low and gentle, full of fatherly kindness.
At this time, there was a sound of hurried footsteps from the other end of the corridor. Xiang Mei rushed to the hospital breathlessly. Seeing the child in Xiang Yu's arms, she asked anxiously, "Brother, how is Jin'er? Where is the child?"
"Mother and child are safe," Xiang Yu pointed at the child in the crib, his face showing unconcealed joy, "It's a boy."
Xiang Mei walked to the crib and looked at the tiny baby with a pleased smile on her face, "So cute, looks so much like..."
Her eyes fell on the child's eyebrows and she was suddenly stunned. Her face turned pale and her voice began to tremble. "This child..."
"This child..." Xiang Mei hesitated, wanting to say something but stopping herself, her eyes constantly moving back and forth between the child and Xiang Yu.
When Yan Jin woke up, this was the scene she saw: Xiang Mei was sitting next to the cradle beside the bed, patting the sleeping baby gently, her eyes full of love.
"He's very well behaved and hardly cries." Noticing that Yan Jin had woken up, Xiang Mei stood up and tucked the quilt for her, with a rare tenderness on her face.
Yan Jin looked at the girl in front of her who had once been willful and capricious, but now showed such a maternal side, and a warm feeling welled up in her heart.
"You seem to like him very much." Yan Jin said softly.
"Yeah," Xiang Mei nodded, her eyes never leaving the baby, "He is very cute, and very pitiful..."
In the following days, Xiang Mei seemed to have become a different person. She was no longer just playing around like before, but spent most of her time taking care of the baby. From feeding, changing diapers to coaxing the baby to sleep, she did everything herself, showing extraordinary patience and care.
Yan Jin saw it with her own eyes and felt warm in her heart. She knew that Xiang Mei's transformation was due to the arrival of this child and her love for Xiang Yu.
Xiang Yu also cared more about his family than before. He would use all his free time to accompany his wife and children and learn how to take care of them. He clumsily changed the baby's diaper and carefully held the baby to feed him. Although he was often in a mess, he could not hide the happiness on his face.
"Look at him, he looks just like you when he smiles." Xiang Yu pointed at the giggling baby in his arms and said to Yan Jin, his eyes full of doting.
Yan Jin looked at the heartwarming scene in front of him, his heart filled with happiness and satisfaction.
That day, Yan Jin was working in the study when she suddenly heard a baby crying downstairs. She quickly put down the documents in her hands, got up and went downstairs.
"What's wrong? Are you hungry?" Yan Jin came to the baby room and saw Xiang Mei frantically coaxing the child, so she walked up to ask.
"I fed him and changed his diaper, but he still kept crying. I don't know if he's feeling unwell somewhere..." Xiang Mei said anxiously.
Yan Jin took the child, patted his back gently, checked his body, and found nothing abnormal. At this moment, she noticed that the child's clothes seemed to be stained with a little stain, so she said to Xiang Mei: "I'll go change his clothes, you help me get a glass of water."
"Okay." Xiang Mei turned and left the room.
Yan Jin carried the child to the crib and was about to change his clothes when suddenly her eyes fell on the child's ankle, where there was a small red birthmark...
Yan Jin's face suddenly changed. She quickly put the child down and undressed him with shaking hands. When she saw the identical birthmark on the child's chest, she froze in place as if struck by lightning.
"This...how is this possible..."
Yan Jin felt a chill running from her feet to her head, and the blood in her body seemed to freeze. How could this happen? The birthmarks on this child's ankles and chest were the same as the child she lost that year...
"What's wrong?" Sister Xiang came back with a cup of water. Seeing Yan Jin's pale face and the crying baby in her arms, she panicked and asked, "Is the baby feeling uncomfortable?"
Yan Jin took a deep breath and tried to suppress the emotions surging in her heart, but her voice couldn't stop trembling: "You...you take the child away, I'm going to take a shower, I'm all sweaty."
"Oh, okay." Although Xiang Mei felt that Yan Jin was a little abnormal, she didn't think much about it. She took the child and coaxed him gently before leaving the room.
Yan Jin fell weakly on the bed, his mind in a mess. Impossible, that child was clearly dead... Could it be, could it be that he is still alive?
She clutched the clothes in front of her chest tightly, her fingertips almost digging into her flesh. She needed to calm down and figure out what was going on.
In the next few days, Yan Jin remained calm on the surface, but secretly began to investigate what happened. She found the hospital where she gave birth and looked through all the information, but found nothing.
At the same time, Yan Jin quickly returned to work after giving birth. She seemed to have put all her energy into her work, handling company affairs vigorously and vigorously, showing amazing efficiency and courage.
"Jinjin, you don't have to work so hard. You can take your time with company matters." Xiang Yu felt distressed as he watched Yan Jin, who was getting thinner day by day.
"I'm fine, I just want to keep myself busy so that I won't have any random thoughts." Yan Jin forced a smile and avoided Xiang Yu's concerned gaze.
Although Xiang Yu was worried, he also knew Yan Jin's character, so he didn't say anything more. He just stayed by her side silently and tried his best to share her pressure.
The harmonious atmosphere of the Xiang family also infected the people around them, and they became a model family in the eyes of the people. Xiang Yu was successful in his career, Yan Jin was beautiful and capable, and they had a lovely child. The family of three was happy and enviable.
"Seeing you like this, I'm really happy for you." Xiang Mei sighed sincerely as she looked at Xiang Yu's family of three playing in the garden.
"Yes, thanks to you. If you hadn't helped take care of the children, we wouldn't be able to have it so easy." Yan Jin said with a smile.
"It's his duty. He is my godson after all!" Xiang Mei said, stretching out her hand to pinch the child's cheek, her eyes full of pampering.
Everything seems to be moving in a good direction. However, beneath the calm surface, there is an undercurrent that is about to break this seemingly happy peace.
"I have already arranged the baby's hundred-day banquet. When the time comes..." Xiang Yu said to Yan Jin as he flipped through the invitation in his hand. However, before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Yan Jin.
"Wait a minute, I..." Yan Jin's face turned pale, his eyes fixed on a name on the invitation, his voice trembling so much that it was almost inaudible, "Cross...cross this person off the list..."
Chapter 148 Harbor of Love
The baby's 100-day banquet arrived as scheduled. The Xiang family villa was decorated with lights and colorful decorations, and guests gathered, with laughter and joy. Xiang Yu, dressed in a dark suit, entertained the relatives and friends who came to congratulate him with high spirits, while Yan Jin, wearing an elegant long dress, held the cute baby in her arms and accepted everyone's blessings.
"Congratulations, Mr. Xiang, congratulations, Mr. Yan, the baby is so cute!"
"I wish the baby to be healthy, happy and live a long life!"
……
Listening to the sincere blessings and looking at the baby's innocent smile, Yan Jin also showed a happy smile. Only she knew what kind of torment and struggle she had experienced for this day. Fortunately, all the suffering is over. Now she has the most precious baby and the family warmth she has longed for.
In the center of the banquet hall, there was a huge cake with candles representing the Chinese character "百" on it, symbolizing the healthy growth of the baby. Xiang Yu gently held Yan Jin and the baby's hands together and guided them to cut the cake together.
"I wish our family of three will always be happy!" Xiang Yu looked at Yan Jin affectionately, his eyes full of love.
"Yes, be happy forever!" Yan Jin also responded with a gentle smile. At this moment, she truly felt the warmth and happiness of home.
After the banquet, the guests dispersed and the noisy villa returned to peace. Xiang Yu and Yan Jin took the baby back to the room, and the family sat on the soft carpet, enjoying the warm night.
"Baby, look, this is a gift from your daddy!" Xiang Yu took out an exquisite music box and shook it gently. The melodious music flowed slowly, and the baby also danced and giggled.
"Time flies so fast. In the blink of an eye, the baby is already a hundred days old." Yan Jin looked at the baby's adorable appearance and felt deeply moved.
"Yes, from now on our family will be together forever and never separate again." Xiang Yu held Yan Jin and the baby in his arms, his tone firm and gentle.
"Yeah!" Yan Jin responded softly, leaning her head on Xiang Yu's shoulder, a happy smile on her face.
Late at night, the baby fell asleep in the cradle. Xiang Yu gently held Yan Jin in his arms and whispered in her ear: "Jinjin, thank you for giving me a home."
Yan Jin didn't say anything, but buried her face in Xiang Yu's chest, feeling his warm embrace. The room was silent, with only the sound of each other's heartbeats clearly audible, as if telling of their endless love.
Suddenly, Yan Jin seemed to remember something, and suddenly sat up from Xiang Yu's arms, saying hurriedly: "Wait a minute..."
