Butler Fu walked over to the nurse and looked at the newborn baby in the swaddling clothes with a gratified smile!
Mother and son were safe. Mother and daughter were safe. All that fear for nothing, but it was a joyous occasion!
Butler Fu asked the nurse, “Can I hold him?”
The nurse nodded and carefully handed one of the babies to Butler Fu. Now, the faces of the two newborns were wrinkled, thin and flushed, even inclined towards a purple shade. He asked worriedly, “Why are their faces so red?”
“It’s normal. Because they are premature. The water broke…”
“Too thin.”
“Hehe, because it’s been thirty-six weeks and a few days, it’s not far from full term. This weight is very healthy!”
The nurse was also a rather sweet talker, so she naturally made a few flattering remarks. “You’re carrying the boy in your arms. He looks like his mother!”
“Oh, it’s the boy!” Butler Fu turned to the child in the other nurse’s arms. “That must be the girl then!”
“Yes! Girls take after their fathers!”
“It’s good to take after Daddy, she’ll be pretty!”
Butler Fu held the child lovingly and kept sighing with emotion. May the heavens bless Old Master, Chu He and the Gu family!
Gu Jinglian stood there refusing to let go of Chu He’s hand. The nurse cautiously reminded him, “We’re going to send her to her room soon. If you want to stay with her, you may go directly to her room.”
“She has not sustained any other injuries, has she?”
“No. We’ve checked, and there’s nothing wrong with her except for abrasions on her palms and knees. She fell, I think, and must have ruptured her amniotic fluid in the process. Hence an early cesarean was necessary.”
“I see!” Gu Jinglian finally felt a little more settled.
He watched as the nurses wheeled Chu He away. Then turning around, he also realized that the babies had been taken away by the two nurses. Because the babies were premature, they had to be sent for a series of tests.
Gu Jinglian and Butler Fu arrived at the intensive care unit. As soon as they entered, they saw the doctor and a few nurses standing by a bed, recording something on a clipboard.
It was a large, VIP room. Apart from a large bed, various examination instruments, two baby boxes, a parlor, and a simple open kitchen and bar, there were also two separate bathrooms.
One was for the patient and the other for family members or visiting relatives and friends.
Gu Jinglian sat on the edge of the bed for a while. Soon, a nurse came in and informed him that the babies were premature and needed to be cared for in the incubator for a few days before they could be brought over. If he wanted to see them, he would have to visit the nursery. The babies only be released after their vital signs were stable.
Gu Jinglian nodded.
Butler Fu said to him, “Old Master, just stay here. I’ll tend to the other matters. Don’t worry.”
“Other matters”, of course, included the matter of Black Panther. He would deal with the aftermath.
In the afternoon, Chu He gradually came to. Butler Fu had deployed two nannies to serve her.
She was a little weak after giving birth. When she woke up, Gu Jinglian personally fed her some liquid food. After eating some nutritious porridge and oatmeal, Chu He was tired again and went back to sleep.
Because she had undergone a cesarean section, there was no way she would be able to get out of bed for a while.
Chu He felt a little regretful.
Initially, she had insisted on giving birth naturally. In the end, because of the accident, she had to have a cesarean section. Given the situation, she now had no choice but to lie in bed and focus on recovering.
