Su Mo often sold them tea, naturally these gifts were also obligatory to return.
Seeing that big pile of things, the corners of her mouth twitched, "I think, I might need to clear out a room for these toys."
Receiving the chicken soup and so fresh dishes handed to her, Su Mo’s index finger twitched with excitent, listening to the people around her discussing what to na the little one.
For a ti, just deciding whose surna the child should take caused a few people to argue in low voices.
Hearing Jianxiong suggest taking the surna Li He, Lu Chen’s face darkened imdiately, and the chill around him directly pressured the few people.
"That’s my seed."
He squeezed out a few words through clenched teeth, silencing them all.
Eventually, everyone considered naming the child with the surna Lu.
"Lu Ruixue," suggested Su Mo as she sipped the chicken soup.
Everyone stopped talking and turned to look at her.
It was a very peaceful na.
Putting down her spoon, Su Mo looked at the child sleeping in the crib, softly saying, "I hope the snow before the Ice Age is auspicious, and that this child can bring us hope."
"What do you think?"
No one opposed, and Jianxiong was the first to shout towards the crib, "Xuexue, I’ll be your godfather from now on."
Su Mo turned to look at Lu Chen, "What do you think?"
He indulgently responded, "As long as you’re happy."
Jiang Yulian ca along with her son and Ling Ye, who she hadn’t seen in a long while.
Ling Ye had grown quite a bit taller. Seeing Su Mo, who looked a bit more maternal, he walked over and gently hugged her, "Sister Su."
"You seem to have gotten stronger," Su Mo said approvingly, patting his head, "How’s the training going?"
Ling Ye nodded, "Very well, we can go out to kill zombies now."
Seeing his straight posture and the significant aura coming from him, Su Mo was extrely satisfied, "Keep working hard in the future too."
"Yes!"
Ling Ye’s gaze unconsciously drifted to the crib, "Do I have a little sister now?"
"Yes, your sister."
"I will protect you all with my life."
Ling Ye said this with utmost sincerity, his eyes shining brightly, and Su Mo could tell he ant every word.
She couldn’t help but pat his head again, "Good."
Jiang Zhuoyang next to Jiang Yulian had already started to walk smoothly and kept calling Su Mo ’sister’, lting her heart.
She played happily with him, and the room was filled with joy.
Only when the night fell did everyone leave reluctantly. Lu Chen, taking advantage of when Su Mo was eating, was called away by Rong Bai.
Drinking bird’s nest soup prepared with goat milk, Su Mo felt like a princess, thoroughly enjoying herself.
She heard the sound of a door opening outside and naturally thought it was Lu Chen returning, lifting her head to ask, "How co you’re back so..."
Her smile halted mid-rise; the person who ca wasn’t Lu Chen, but Lu Jin.
He stood by the bed, holding so maternity clothes and children’s toys, placing them aside.
A mont of silence followed.
"May I see her?"
Su Mo wasn’t sure what to say for a mont, turning her head to glance at the crib, "Just for a little while."
"Okay."
Lu Jin walked around the bed, and under Su Mo’s sowhat nervous gaze, he bent slightly to look at the peacefully sleeping little face.
"Looks a lot like you."
He stared at the face that resembled how Su Mo looked as a child, "When I first t you, I was only a little older than her."
He spoke of a past that they had shared.
Su Mo stayed silent.
"What’s her na?"
"Lu Ruixue."
"Okay."
Lu Jin glanced deeply at the girl in the swaddle, straightened up, and suddenly said before leaving, "I’ll do my best."
"What?" Su Mo asked in surprise.
Lu Jin didn’t answer her and walked away, closing the door behind him. His hand on the doorknob was still slightly trembling.
This opportunity was given to him by Rong Bai.
He thought if he could control his manic syndro better, maybe he could be closer to her and her child.
That child really resembled her, just like how she had been abandoned at the doorstep.
Lu Jin clutched his chest where his heart, silent and still, was beating fiercely.
He staggered away, and Lu Chen, summoned by Rong Bai for re pretense, also discerned sothing. When he returned, he found Su Mo exceptionally quiet on the bed.
"Lu Jin was here?"
Su Mo turned around, "How did you know?"
Lu Chen’s gaze darkened as he listened to her say sowhat distressingly, "It feels tight."
The reason she was so quiet was purely because her breasts were full.
"Did he say anything?"
Su Mo shook her head, "Nothing much, but I felt he seed a bit different."
Lu Chen took off his coat and stared at a certain spot for a while, "I’m going to take a shower."
It was late, and having talked with her companions all day, Su Mo was extrely sleepy.
She endured the discomfort in her chest and crawled under the covers.
Soon an arm scooped her into an embrace.
Lu Chen turned on his side, half-leaning over her, and started to lift her clothes.
Su Mo pressed down on his hand, "What are you doing!"
"Isn’t it tight because of the milk? The obstetrician ntioned this, I can help you suck it out."
He spoke earnestly, making Su Mo’s face turn bright red, "This... isn’t very appropriate."
"So you will endure the pain and try to sleep?"
Su Mo felt that would be sowhat unjust to herself, so she simply lay down, "Then go ahead."
Of course, there are many ways to relieve engorged breasts...
How can Li He’s superpower be so effective? After giving birth, she bounced back to her normal state without suffering at all.
Su Mo, already tired, ended up tossing and turning the whole night without sleep.
She slept till noon and didn’t want to move a finger; the bed was a complete ss.
The man, looking completely satiated, was still holding her in his arms and hadn’t woken up yet. Su Mo glanced at the crib, nudged Lu Chen, "Get up, it’s ti to feed."
"Wasn’t yesterday enough?"
Su Mo: ...
She couldn’t help but punch him in the chest, gritting her teeth, "I an feeding the child!"
Lu Chen then realized his mistake, feeling guilty, got out of bed and placed the child into her arms.
He drew open the tightly closed curtains, revealing the gloomy weather outside.
Su Mo holding the child in her arms, suddenly felt like she had grown heavier overnight, a detail she hadn’t noticed because the child had opened her eyes.
Watery brown eyes gazed dazedly at Su Mo.
Just one look nearly lted Su Mo’s heart.
Driven by maternal instinct, she gently stroked the child’s head.
After feeding, Su Mo drank a cup of Zijuan Tea and got out of bed feeling agile.
Relieved of her burden, she looked no different than before, except her figure had improved.
After changing the bedding and dressing up, they opened the door to find Lu Jin standing at the doorstep.
Su Mo couldn’t figure out what was going through his mind.
This ti he had brought so infant formula, and there was a faint sll of blood on him; he must have been out all night to find it.
Su Mo asked as if confirming, "Do you want to see the child?"
"Give a chance... to make ands."
