"Hmm, it’s getting late now." Tian Xingyun replied softly. It was past seven and if he didn’t go back, Song Yi would be angry.
Huo Shaohua walked far away to the staircase to take the call, worried that Mom Tian might hear.
After ensuring his surroundings were safe, he answered the call: "Hello."
"Shaohua, are you still working overtime at the company? It’s almost eight o’clock." Song Yi sat in the living room waiting for him to come back.
"I’m at the hospital."
"She gave birth?" Song Yi instantly tensed up, her whole body stiffening.
Was it a boy or a girl?
"Yes, it’s a girl." Huo Shaohua said, his lips curling into a joyful smile.
His eyes were filled with laughter, and thinking of his daughter’s adorable face made his heart sweet.
"As long as mother and daughter are safe." Song Yi breathed a sigh of relief, smiling. Thankfully, it wasn’t a boy.
If it had been a boy, Grandma wouldn’t consent to a divorce in the future.
"Have you come back?"
"Yes, I’ll visit her and the baby at the hospital tomorrow." Song Yi said with a smile, even though she really didn’t want to see Tian Xingyun’s smug face.
But for Shaohua’s sake, she had to visit Tian Xingyun and the child.
She couldn’t let Grandma say she was being ungrateful again, she had to handle every step carefully!
"Wait till they are discharged and visit them at home. You dislike the smell of hospitals, don’t you?" Huo Shaohua subtly rejected her visit to the hospital.
Firstly, he feared another conflict between the two women; Tian Xingyun needed proper rest after giving birth.
Moreover, Mom Tian was still here, and if Song Yi’s visit aroused her suspicions, it would be problematic.
"Fine!" Song Yi’s expression stiffened; he actually refused to let her go to the hospital.
Although he said it was for her best interest, his meaning was obviously to prevent her from disturbing Tian Xingyun.
"I’m not coming back tonight, you should rest early."
"You’re staying at the hospital?" Song Yi frowned, a little angry.
Tian Xingyun had safely given birth, so why was he still at the hospital?
It was just a daughter. Was it really that significant? Did he need to stay at the hospital with them?
"Yes, you rest early." Huo Shaohua said and hung up without waiting for her response.
Right now, all he could think about was his daughter, and he wouldn’t be able to sleep if he went back home anyway.
Being here and able to see his daughter anytime was wonderful~
He had always wanted a child, and today his wish finally came true!
"Sha..." Song Yi angrily threw her phone onto the sofa. He actually wouldn’t come home because of Tian Xingyun and that little bastard.
Were that mother and daughter really that important?
Huo Shaohua set his phone to vibrate, worried that it might ring again and wake up his precious daughter.
That would be troublesome~
Adjusting his mood, he happily returned to the ward.
Little Sweetheart had eaten her fill and wasn’t crying. She was awake but hadn’t fallen asleep yet.
"Is she asleep?" Huo Shaohua walked to the bedside and asked.
"No, she’s awake." Tian Xingyun answered with a smile.
"Let me hold her." Huo Shaohua eagerly reached out to hold his daughter, never getting enough of her.
"Be careful." Tian Xingyun handed her daughter to him. He truly loved children.
No wonder he had married her for the child’s sake, enduring so much grievance.
"Shaohua, you have so much work at the company. Go back and rest early, I’m here, you don’t have to worry." Mom Tian said.
"Mother-in-law, I’ll stay here tonight. You go home and rest, come back tomorrow." Huo Shaohua said, sitting on a stool and playing with his daughter.
"You want to stay here?" Tian Xingyun looked at him in surprise as if she didn’t hear clearly.
He wanted to stay here tonight? That seemed impossible.
"You have to work tomorrow, let me stay here." Mom Tian smiled. This son-in-law was becoming more and more satisfactory.
She had been worried that since it was a daughter, he might not be happy.
