Proud senior schoolgirl was tender and sweet, we fell in love-Chapter 381: Is Your Son, Perhaps, A Little Ugly?

Luo Yanran still had to be observed in the delivery room for half an hour, while the baby was taken by Yang Lan, the others, and the arriving nanny for a check-up.

Only Xie Xiao was left waiting at the door.

At this moment, he especially wanted to smoke, feeling a tight pain in his heart.

The baby weighed over seven pounds—she must have been in a lot of pain, right?

He couldn’t dwell on this thought, as whenever he did, Xie Xiao felt even worse.

When Luo Ming returned, he saw Xie Xiao sitting upright in front of the delivery room, still in his pajamas and wearing slippers.

The boy who had stayed up all night still sat straight-backed, his eyes occasionally glancing towards the delivery room.

His anxious emotions were evident.

Luo Ming thought his daughter’s judgment was good, at least when it came to choosing a husband.

Xie Xiao only felt someone sitting down beside him and turned his head to see Luo Ming, managing a smile and calling out, "Dad."

Luo Ming patted his stiff shoulder, "There’s no need to be so nervous, everything went smoothly."

Xie Xiao exhaled, "Though I know that, my heart won’t be at peace until I see her."

Luo Ming too looked at the still-closed door, "Your mom originally wanted to come and see you, but I felt it was better that I came."

This "mom" is presumably referring to Mrs. Luo.

Xie Xiao smiled a bit, "I’m really fine."

"Ah, drop it, when Luoluo was born, I was so stiff I couldn’t move a muscle. Don’t be embarrassed to laugh at me; I almost cried and was laughed at by Luoluo’s grandfather for a long time," Luo Ming said with a laugh.

Xie Xiao was genuinely amused this time.

Seeing him laugh, Luo Ming nodded along, "That’s right, laugh. It’s normal to worry about your wife. I would be mad if you weren’t worried."

He sighed, "In the blink of an eye, my girl has had a child and become a mother. It’s so fast, I feel like I’ve just seen her being carried out of the delivery room, a tiny thing... You know, Luoluo was very small when she was born, just over five pounds, like a little kitten..."

Xie Xiao listened to Luo Ming reminiscing about Luo Yanran’s birth, and his tense mood started to relax gradually.

After Luo Ming talked for a while and glanced at the time, he said, "Alright, you wait here. You might be embarrassed to cry if I’m here. I’m going to see my grandson."

Xie Xiao said with a smile, "I won’t cry. Don’t worry, Dad."

But Luo Ming just smiled.

Xie Xiao would later realize that sometimes it’s too early to say such things.

When the door to the delivery room opened, Xie Xiao stood up immediately.

The person on the bed, receiving an IV drip, was pushed out, and he quickly walked over.

What he saw was Luo Yanran, looking pale and frail.

Even in such a disheveled state, she was still beautiful.

Xie Xiao, who had just been saying he wouldn’t cry, suddenly felt his eyes welling up.

He reached out to gently hold her hand that was receiving the IV, feeling its coldness.

The nurses pushing Luo Yanran out smiled, "Miss Luo is in no serious danger, we’re heading back to the ward now, let’s not catch a cold."

Luo Yanran smiled at Xie Xiao, "I’m fine."

Xie Xiao looked at her frail state and thought, how could she be fine looking so weak.

But before he could speak, tears fell.

Luo Yanran whispered, "Why are you crying? What if someone sees?"

Xie Xiao blinked, "I can’t help it, it’s been tough on you, wife."

Luo Yanran just smiled, "I’m really fine."

She shook Xie Xiao’s hand gently.

Two nurses were pushing Luo Yanran towards the ward.

Yet there was envy in their eyes.

"Mr. Xie and Miss Luo are really affectionate."

By the time they reached the ward, Yang Lan was waiting, the child still hadn’t returned from the physical exam.

She was a doctor herself, and after watching the two nurses settle Luo Yanran, she stepped out.

Out of habit, she picked up the medical record at the bedside to glance at, "Nothing serious, Luoluo, how do you feel?"

Luo Yanran smiled and called out, "Mom, what brings you here? What about the hospital?"

"I arranged everything in advance, don’t worry. Everyone knows my daughter-in-law is giving birth. But I can only stay for two days," Yang Lan touched her face, "You’ve worked hard."

But Luo Yanran quietly said, "It’s not hard, I’m very happy."

Yang Lan then looked towards Xie Xiao, "Such a big man, and still crying, huh?"

Xie Xiao pulled out a tissue from the side to wipe his tears, "I couldn’t help it."

Shaking her head helplessly but with tender eyes, Yang Lan said, "You’re a father now; how can you still act like a child?"

"Mom, didn’t you say I’ll always be a child in your eyes?" Xie Xiao gently covered his dissatisfaction with Luo Yanran’s cold hand.

Standing up, Yang Lan retorted, "That’s not the case now. My grandson is the child now; I should go see if he’s almost done with the checkup."

Then she turned and left, leaving the young couple alone in the ward.

She had been worried and wanted to see Luo Yanran personally; now that she was sure she was fine, she felt somewhat relieved.

Just as Yang Lan stepped out, Luo Yanran turned to Xie Xiao, "Husband, hold me."

As she spoke, she was on the verge of crying.

This deeply saddened Xie Xiao, who bent down to embrace her, "What’s wrong...?"

"It hurts so much..." Luo Yanran whispered, "Even though I knew, I didn’t expect it to be this painful."

Giving birth was indeed excruciating.

In reality, Luo Yanran had simply not wanted to worry everyone earlier.

But now with only Xie Xiao here, she felt very aggrieved in her heart.

And having just given birth, the influence of various hormones had made Luo Yanran uncommonly coquettish towards Xie Xiao.

Embracing her, Xie Xiao soothed in a whisper, "It’s okay now, there’s nothing wrong, I’m sorry... let’s not have another baby, okay?"

Mentioning this brought a conflicted look on Luo Yanran’s face, "Husband, you’ve seen our son, haven’t you?"

Xie Xiao hummed an acknowledgment, "I have, what’s wrong?"

He gently wiped the tears from the corners of Luo Yanran’s eyes.

Luo Yanran hesitated, then softly said, "Don’t you think, your son, is a bit ugly?"

Even though it was a question, it clearly had an air of certainty.

Xie Xiao fell silent for a moment; how should he put it – he actually thought the baby looked quite alright once he got used to him?

But seeing his wife’s worried face, frowning at the brow, Xie Xiao finally sighed, "Indeed, a little, but mom and dad said he’s very cute."

Luo Yanran sighed along, "Probably just to comfort us. When I first saw him, I thought, even if he took all our worst features, it wouldn’t be this bad, right? How will our son ever find a wife in the future?"

The young couple exchanged worried glances.

Xie Xiao still comforted her, "Newborn babies all look like this; they’ll look better after a while. Isn’t that what the books say too?"

Luo Yanran was still worried, "Is that really the case?"

The newly born little one, whose name wasn’t even decided yet, was being critiqued inside and out by his parents.

The young parents were already concerned about whether their son would be able to find a wife in the future.
