Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Xiao Juan returned to the General’s Mansion as quickly as possible.

He jumped off the horse and casually threw the reins to the concierge. He ran all the way to the backyard.

When he entered the backyard, he vaguely heard Niaoniao’s cry before he approached the bedroom.

Xiao Juan stopped in his tracks and sped up toward the bedroom.

Niaoniao’s shouts came from the room again and again. Every shout was filled with intense pain.

Xiao Juan’s heart tightened.

He walked straight towards the bedroom but was stopped by the servant guarding the door.

“Master, this is the delivery room. The smell of blood is very strong. You can’t go in. It’s inauspicious!”

Xiao Juan pushed him away. “I just came down from the battlefield. In terms of the smell of blood, who can be stronger than me? Not to mention that it’s a delivery room inside, I’ll definitely rush through mountains of blades and seas of flames!”

With that, he pushed open the door and strode in.

When Ling Hai, who had followed closely behind, saw this scene, he was very anxious. However, he was not Xiao Juan. He did not dare to barge into the delivery room rashly and could only wait outside anxiously.

Yu Niaoniao lay on the bed. Her face was pale and she was sweating profusely. Her lower body was in so much pain that she could not feel anything.

Granny Xiu Yan gripped her hand tightly and encouraged her. “Quick, use more strength. The child’s head is out. Use more strength!” The midwife was also shouting, “Madam, use more strength!”

However, Yu Niaoniao was really weak. She could not hold on anymore.

At this moment, she heard Xiao Juan’s voice at the door.

He was back!

Yu Niaoniao turned her head with difficulty. In her blurry vision, a familiar tall figure came to the bed.

Granny Xiu Yan let go of her hand.

Right on the heels of that, another broad and warm hand held her.

Xiao Juan leaned over to her and said gently, “Niaoniao, I’m back.”

It was not only his voice that was too gentle, but the delivery process was too painful. Yu Niaoniao could not help but cry.

She cried as she said, “I dreamed that you fell on the battlefield covered in blood. I was so afraid. I thought you would never come back. What would happen to me and the child? Boohoo!”

Xiao Juan lowered his head and kissed her sweaty forehead. “Don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid. I’m here. I’m fine. I’m fine.”

Yu Niaoniao could not stop crying.

Xiao Juan’s heart ached. He wished he could replace her.

Granny Xiu Van stood at the side and watched this scene- She could not help

but wipe her tears.

At that moment, they suddenly heard the midwife cry out in surprise.

“She gave birth! The child is born!”

Everyone was shocked.

Xiao Juan and Granny Xiu Yan turned to look at the midwife in unison and saw her bend down to cut the umbilical cord. When she stood up again, there was already a small baby in her arms.

The midwife washed the child’s bloody body with warm water and wrapped him in a soft blanket.

She smiled and said, “Congratulations, Master. Congratulations, Madam. You have a cute little daughter!”

At this moment, Yu Niaoniao could not care less about crying.

She said hoarsely, “Show me the child.”

The midwife gently placed the child on the bed. Beside her, Granny Xiu Yan immediately took out the pouch she had prepared long ago. She handed it to the midwife.

“It’s been hard on you today. I hope you can accept this small gift.”

The midwife happily accepted the pouch.

Granny Xiu Yan immediately asked, “Don’t children cry when they’re born? How can she not cry?”

The midwife explained, “Not every child cries at birth. Some don’t like to cry. If you’re worried, you can spank the child. She’ll naturally cry when she feels the pain. ”

Granny Xiu Yan understood. “I see. Thank you. I’ll send you out.”

Yu Niaoniao looked at the baby in swaddling clothes and felt very strange.

Just now, she thought she might not be able to give birth. She did not expect this child to suddenly come out.

It was as if this child was deliberately waiting for Xiao Juan to return.

As soon as Xiao Juan arrived, this child came out.

As Yu Niaoniao thought this, she could not help but feel a little jealous. “You heartless thing. You value your father over your mother.”

Xiao Juan was looking at the baby in a daze, wanting to distinguish which part of her face looked like her mother, when he heard Niaoniao suddenly say this. He could not help but look up at her and ask.

“What?”

Yu Niaoniao said what she was thinking, “She wouldn’t have come out if you weren’t here. She came out as soon as you did. She’s biased towards you!”

Xiao Juan said, “I think she saw that her parents were around and that she was the only one missing. She also wanted her family to reunite, so she did her best to come out.”

Granny Xiu Yan, who had returned, was caught between laughter and tears when she heard the couple’s conversation.

The newborn baby couldn’t even open her eyes. What could she know?

These two adults were actually discussing so seriously. They were really more childish than children.

Granny Xiu Yan got someone to bring hot water, wanting to help Niaoniao wipe and change.

Xiao Juan took the handkerchief from her.

“I’ll do it. You guys go out.”

Granny Xiu Yan hesitated. “You just came back from the battlefield. You should be very tired. Do you want to rest first?”

Xiao Juan shook his head to indicate that there was no need.

Seeing his determined attitude, Granny Xiu Yan had no choice but to retreat with the maidservants.

Xiao Juan soaked the handkerchief in hot water and walked to the bed, planning to help Niaoniao take off her clothes. However, he saw that she had

already tallen asleep beside the swaddling clothes.

She was really too tired.

Previously, she had been trying her best to stay awake because she was worried about Xiao Juan and the child.

Now that the child had been successfully born and Xiao Juan had returned safely, she had nothing to worry about anymore. She could finally rest.

Xiao Juan quietly took off Niaoniao’s clothes and wiped her body with a wet handkerchief.

Because he was afraid of waking Niaoniao up, his movements were exceptionally gentle and careful.

After helping Niaoniao clean up, he was also drenched in sweat.

He covered Niaoniao with the blanket and walked out of the room with the dirty water.

Granny Xiu Yan quickly got someone to pour the dirty water away. Then, she got someone to bring new hot water so that Xiao Juan could take a good bath.

He returned to the bedroom, planning to have a good sleep.

Unexpectedly, just as he lay down beside Niaoniao, the baby, who had been quiet just now, suddenly cried.

Xiao Juan immediately panicked.

He did not know why his precious daughter was crying. He wanted to coax her, but he did not know how. He wanted to hug her, but he did not know how to carry such a small child. He was afraid that he would hurt the child clumsily.

The child’s cries woke Niaoniao from her sleep.

She opened her tired eyes and asked, “What happened to the baby?”

At this moment, Granny Xiu Yan pushed open the door and walked in. She asked nervously, “Miss, why are you crying?

Yu Niaoniao and Xiao Juan expressed that they did not know.

This was their first time being parents. They had no experience raising children.

Granny Xiu Yan picked up the child and took a look. Seeing that she was crying loudly, she secretly heaved a sigh of relief. It was good that she could cry. It meant that this child was not mute..
