Grandfather Fu stayed for a while before leaving and Fu Hua was more than happy to see him leave.
After he left, he passed Jia Li's phone to her.
"You have opened my eyes today." Jia Li said as she took her phone from him.
"Don't dwell on my past, I am a changed person." Fu Hua said and went to sit back on the couch. He was embarrassed as he didn't know what way his wife now viewed him as.
He was feeling insecure and blamed his old man for tarnishing his reputation.
Jia Li chuckled softly, before fixing her gaze on her phone. She found his actions cute, just like their daughter.
"You charged my phone?" Jia Li asked with a smile as she gazed at him.
"Yes." Fu Hua replied.
"Thank you!" Jia Li replied gracefully.
There were so many missed calls and texts from her phone. Her eyes hurt just by looking at them.
"Where do I start from?" She asked herself as she stared at the missed call logs. At last, she decided to face time with her three friends.
Luckily, they were online and they quickly connected to the call.
"Jia Li, where did you leave your phone, we have been trying to contact you since this morning. You were not picking our call and there was no reply from the texts!" DanDan said in a worried tone.
"What happened to you, are you okay? We were worried sick about you." Chang-Chang said with a frown.
Jia Li couldn't let them go on and on about how worried they were, so she replied to them with a smiling gaze, "I am very fine. I have not been with my phone, that's why."
"That's good but why are you wearing a hospital gown?" Daiyu asked with creased brows as she noticed the uniform Jia Li was putting on. The others noticed it as well and began to ask questions.
"Are you sick? Are you okay?" Chang-Chang asked immediately.
"Today is your birthday, what are you doing in the hospital?" DanDan asked.
Instead of Jia Li replying to them with words, she switched her phone camera to the rear one and Jasmine who was sleeping comfortably in her cot came to their view.
It took a few seconds for Jia Li's friends to react. The three of them screamed in surprise when they got the message after seeing the baby.
Jia Li's phone almost slipped from her hand because of their screaming. Even Fu Hua glanced over at her.
Jasmine who was sleeping peacefully frowned in her sleep and almost cried out before the frown disappeared and she opened her eyes slowly.
Jia Li immediately glanced over at Fu Hua who was already on his feet and said, "Darling, she is awake and she looks like she is about to cry."
Fu Hua took long strides over and quickly lifted the little girl in his arms and began to soothe her as he carried her away.
Jia Li sighed in relief before fixing her attention on her phone. She switched back her phone camera to the front view and chided her friends.
"What kind of godmothers does my daughter have? You all scared her with your uncontrollable screaming."
"Jia Li is that your child?"
"When did you give birth?"
"OMG! Jia Li why didn't you tell us about this sooner?!"
Jia Li friends threw so many questions at her and she had to cut them off.
"You are asking so many questions at the same time, which one should I answer first?"
"Start from anyone, better still, tell us the entire story." DanDan said as they all directed curious gazes at her, they were impatient and couldn't wait to hear the gist of everything.
Fu Hua had Jasmine in his arms as he walked around the room while speaking softly to her. He thought that his little princess must have been shocked, so he took his time comforting her.
Housekeeper Zu watched him from the side with a smile on her face. His fatherly love could not be hidden.
Jia Li decided to tell her friends the whole story from the time she was rushed to the hospital and her labor started and till the time she gave birth.
"…I didn't remember to take my phone with me." Jia Li said as she finished off with a smile.
"Congratulations!!!" Her three friends said in unison. There was excitement in their tone.
They kept asking Jia Li to point the camera at the cute baby they saw a few minutes ago.
Jia Li asked them to bribe her and they kept begging her before she agreed to listen to them. She switched the camera again and the three ladies smiled when they saw Jasmine in Fu Hua's arms.
Just then, Fu Hua turned his gaze to glance at the camera before looking away.
"OMG!" The three ladies blushed.
Jia Li switched the camera so her face could be seen and she asked with a glare directed at them, "Who are you blushing for?"
"Of course, it's the baby, can you bring her closer for us to see?" Daiyu said with a soft look on her face.
"You all woke my daughter from sleep and now you want to see her, no way! Bring some gifts before I can forgive you!" Jia Li said with a proud gaze.
"Aiya! We will bring gifts. Which hospital are you, tell us and we will come over immediately!" DanDan said to her.
"Don't come to the hospital, wait till I am discharged from the hospital, then you can visit us at home." Jia Li said with a smile.
"Ah! I don't think I can handle not seeing my goddaughter for another minute." Chang-Chang pouted.
"Stop making noise, I will send her pictures to you, so you can look at them all day till you can see her when you come over." Jia Li said to her.
"That's a relief!" Chang-Chang said as she smiled brightly.
"When will you be discharged from the hospital?" Daiyu asked. If they were going to visit her in her house, then they need to know when she would be discharged from the hospital.
"Tomorrow evening." Jia Li replied happily.
"Okay, we will allow you to rest tomorrow night and come over the next day." DanDan said.
"Don't forget to come with gifts or I won't allow any of you to hold my daughter.." Jia Li threatened.
