Chapter 892: Xunxun

When Yan Huan found out that her two children were safe, she was relieved. Her physique was not in good condition, which was why she fell asleep very quickly. Even though she was keen to speak to Lu Yi again, exhaustion gave in.

The family members had been hiding the fact that Yan Huan still had another daughter from her.

The little girl was too young. She was monitored in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) for 24 hours. Apart from doctors, nobody was allowed to enter. All they could do was to watch her from outside as she stays determined to stay alive day by day.

Old Master Lu nicknamed his granddaughter Xunxun, which meant that she was a sweetheart who was treasured very much by the Lu family. Her official name had not been thought of but the Old Master had gone home to check the family’s genealogy already.

Little Xunxun was the first girl to be born after many generations in the Lu family.

Although Old Master Lu was not young anymore, he never failed to visit his little granddaughter. The other two healthy grandchildren had been neglected because Little Xunxun was too fragile at such a tender age.

During the first night, her breath had stopped up to five times and she was urgently revived. On the second day, it was three times. The child’s little body was attached to all kinds of tubes. She could even fit into the smallest size of a diaper entirely.

It had been days since the last time the Lu family had a proper sleep. They had been waiting outside the ward while watching the poor little one who was only about the size of an adult’s palm.

Perhaps Xunxun was truly a child of the Lu family who inherited the family’s hardheadedness in her blood. On the fifth day, all her physical signs were stabilized. Her body had gained some flesh too, and she had finally grown close to two pounds.

As for the Lu family’s two other grandchildren, no one was interested in them anymore. Poor brothers. Although they were kept in incubators with their little feet kicking against the calves, they were persistently feeding on milk and putting on weight. Yet, none of them got the attention from the family.

Even Old Master Lu and Lu Jin had agreed on giving the two boys a piece of their mind when they are all grown up for absorbing all the nutrients from their little sister which caused her to be malnourished during birth.

The poor two little Lu family’s boys had grudges held against them by their great-grandfather and grandfather although they had just been born for only a few days.

The two boys grew up very quickly. As they were growing, their mother was recovering as well.

Half a month later, Yan Huan was discharged from the hospital. Her wound was almost healed, and she looked not much different from how she was before the delivery. Her tummy was flat, and she could finally eat everything she wished.

This was the first time Yan Huan saw her two children.

“This is the eldest,” Lu Yi pointed at one of the incubators and continued, “He rarely moves or cries. He is usually easy to take care of. He eats and drinks whatever is given to him. Not picky.”

“This is the second one.” Lu Yi pointed at the other, “Both children look exactly the same. Although their weight did vary a little during birth, the eldest ate well while the second one was very picky. Despite that, he cries and smiles a lot, which is why the nurses like him a lot. Due to his picky nature, he is lighter than the eldest by a little.”

“Looks like they are identical,” Yan Huan looked back and forth, trying very hard to spot the difference between them. Yet, she could not find any. Now, they could only rely on their names attached to the incubators to differentiate them.

“They are identical, even the length of their hair is the same.” Initially, Lu Yi also could not identify the difference between both children. He tried hard to search for the uniqueness on their physical bodies but there was truly none. The boys were indeed two peas in a pod, not even a mole on only one of them.

Due to that, Lu Yi had no choice but to buy a specific type of material that was soft enough to be worn as bracelets for them. On top, it was written with their respective dates of birth and names.

The Lu family’s eldest grandchild was called Lu Qi, while the second grandchild was called Lu Guang. These names were handpicked by Old Master Lu himself. The names of the members of the Lu family had always been two-worded. This was based on the names from the Lu family’s genealogy. This generation happened to be these two names.

Yan Huan was pleased with the two names. They were easy to remember. In the future, the boys would have a better head start because they would not need to struggle over the complicated strokes in writing their Chinese names.

“Let’s go. We shall head back first.” Lu Yi reached for the top of Yan Huan’s head to fix her hat in place. Then, he held her hand, ready to take her home.

Thankfully the weather was not too hot, else Yan Huan would have died of suffocation.

The older generation had always emphasized the confinement month. That was why she was just staying at home most of the time. Every day, both Madam Lei and Ye Shuyun discussed the best diet for Yan Huan to recover. After all, she almost lost her life to deliver these children.

Right after Yan Huan had gone home, Lu Yi drove back to the hospital again and walked into the ICU where the newborns were kept.

He changed into a hospital gown and walked in.

He approached the small incubator, bent over and looked at the baby in it.

“She has just fallen asleep. Her physical signs are positive, and she had been good today,” the nurse beside said quietly. “Xunxun opened both her eyes today. We weighed her and noticed that she had gained another two pounds. Based on the current situation, the baby’s weight should go up to four pounds after half a month.”

Lu Yi carefully reached out his finger to her. This child was truly just the size of his hand. Yet, on the first day when she was born, she was just a mini-sized kitten. She had definitely grown.

He carefully pinched his daughter’s little hand with his fingers.

Little Xunxun seemed to sense something. Her tender little finger nudged and her little hand then held onto her father’s finger. He could feel some strength in her.

The corner of Lu Yi’s eyes tensed up. He, a grown man, almost broke into tears.

“Good Xunxun, I am papa. Please grow up soon, then papa can bring you home, alright?”

The child’s little hand continued to hold onto her father’s finger, as if she was reluctant to let papa go. What had led Lu Yi’s heart to melt in a flash was his daughter, and that she was also the daughter Yan Huan had been longing for. Perhaps it was the daughter that Yan Huan had lost in her previous life, wasn’t it?

“Xunxun, we have to hang in there, alright? There are lots of people waiting for you to come home.” Lu Yi gently removed his finger. The incubator was closed up again and Little Xunxun continued to sleep quietly.

Her breathing was stable. Her little heart was beating strongly.

She was still alive. She was still growing up, day by day.
