Jia Li was exhausted by the time she was wheeled out from the labor room. She could barely keep her eyes open.
She had no idea that Grandfather Fu was present until she heard him call out to her with excitement.
"Li girl!" Grandfather Fu called out happily as he walked to Jia Li. The doctors and the nurses bowed to him in greeting.
Grandfather Fu greeted them before fixing his gaze on the exhausted Jia Li.
"Grandfather, you're here?" Jia Li asked in a hoarse tone. She looked very surprised to see him.
Grandfather Fu gazed at her with a kind smile and took her hand in his. "Li girl, you have done well.. I am proud of you. Congratulations!"
"Thank you, Grandfather!" Jia Li said with a smile.
"Hmm… rest well, your Aunty is bringing a delicious meal for you. I will come back later to check up on you and my great-granddaughter." Grandfather Fu said to her while patting her hand.
"Okay, grandfather." Jia Li replied with a smile. She was surprised to see the old man here. He really went all miles for her. She was grateful for her sacrifices and she wondered how long he has been waiting for her and coming from the Fu House to this place in the middle of the night, she couldn't believe it.
Butler Lu and the others took a step forward and congratulated them. Jia Li replied with a tired smile.
The other servant that was left behind followed Jia Li to the room that was prepared for her.
After Jia Li was wheeled away, Grandfather Fu talked with Dr. Clinton to be sure everything was alright with Jia Li.
"Old Sir, your granddaughter-in-law is a strong woman. And your great-granddaughter was so obedient to come out very quickly. There were no complications, so you can rest assured." Dr. Clinton assured him with a smile and only then did Grandfather Fu agree to leave.
"I will give bonuses to the doctors and nurses here, you're all doing a great job here." Grandfather Fu said with a smile.
"Thank you, Old Sir." Dr. Clinton said with a smile.
"No need, I should be thanking you." Grandfather Fu said to her.
In the room, Fu Hua was still yet to get over the birth of his little princess. He was all smiles as he held her in his arms, while Housekeeper Zu and the nurse organized some things in the room before Jia Li would be wheeled in.
The room was very big with its bathroom and toilet and a closet. It was truly a VVIP room. This was a private maternity hospital anyway and most of the rooms were of that size. This hospital was definitely for the wealthy.
The little princess in his arms has been staring at him for a long time and he welcomed her gaze happily.
The little girl was so cute and a little plump, she wasn't tiny at all and that was the reason no wrinkles were seen on her face.
"You look so cute just like your mother." Fu Hua said with a smile as he touched her small nose with a pinky finger.
Jasmine moved about in his arms and frowned, she pouted her lips and was about to cry. Fu Hua was no longer smiling at this point. He was now in a dilemma as he tried to comfort his little daughter.
"Princess, you can't cry okay." Fu Hua said as he carried in his arms and got up from the seat with worry in his eyes.
Housekeeper Zu smiled and said to him, "Sir, the young miss must be hungry."
The nurse turned around and added with a smile, "Her mother will be here soon."
'That's right, she hasn't eaten anything yet!" Fu Hua thought with a frown. He was worried that his little girl was starving.
Jasmine kicked her legs and hands about and yawned.
"Princess, your mommy will be here soon, hang in there." Fu Hua said to her as he paced around the room for her in his arms.
Housekeeper Zu and the nurse were watching Fu Hua from the side. They understood it was his first time being a father, so they didn't tease him.
Just then, Jia Li was wheeled in and only then did Fu Hua sigh in relief.
After the bed was wheeled to its normal position, it was adjusted so Jia Li could be a little in the sit-up position.
"Did she cry?" Jia Li asked in a soft tone as Fu Hua walked to her side with their baby in his arms.
"No, she has been obedient. But she is hungry." Fu Hua said to her with a smile.
"That's a relief." Jia Li said as she stretched her arms out to hold her daughter. Jasmine was about to cry but she recognized her mother's voice comforting her and she listened down.
"The baby must be very hungry. Mrs. Fu, you can give her breast milk now. We will all leave you three alone if there is no problem. A nurse will be waiting right outside the door in case you need anything." Dr. Clinton said to them with a smile.
"Thank you, doctor." Jia Li and Fu Hua said in unison.
Dr. Clinton smiled at them before leaving with the other others, so the family of three could have enough time to themselves.
Dr. Clinton trusted that Jia Li could breastfeed her child without any help from them after learning how to care for her child in the antenatal classes.
"Hold her so I can unzip my dress." Jia Li said with her gaze on Fu Hua.
Fu Hua was happy to help. He lifted his daughter in his arms, while Jia Li unzipped her dress.
The gown she was now wearing had a zip in the front for easy access to breastfeed her child.
Jia Li was not shy exposing her boobs to Fu Hua. She had a hungry baby to feed.
Fu Hua put the baby back in her arms and just as she learned in the antenatal classes, Jia Li was able to hold her baby properly and direct her nipple to her mouth.
Both Jia Li and Fu Hua watched with smiles as their little daughter sucked hungrily.
