It's Brother Harvey!
Hearing the familiar voice, Xiao Bao's eyes adjusted, and she instinctively looked in the direction of the sound. To her surprise, she saw someone familiar – it was Brother Harvey.
At that moment, Xiao Bao's eyes welled up. Brother Harvey was alive, not killed by that woman!
Everyone was looking at Xiao Bao. The instant her tears fell, everyone saw them, especially Lu Wanqing. Her heart leaped into her throat, and she quickly reached out to pick up the little one.
After Lu Wanqing scooped the little one into her arms, she paused, then gently swatted the baby's bottom!
Xiao Bao was still lost in her emotions. Unexpectedly, she was suddenly picked up by Mama, and then, with a "swat," her bottom stung! It hurt!
Xiao Bao was stunned. The tears that were about to stream from her eyes suddenly froze. She wasn't a baby anymore, but she couldn't control her emotions at all. She tried to hold back, but… wahhh…
Mama is a bad egg!
Why did Mama hit her!
Mama used to… dote on her so much!
Hearing the child's cry, Lu Wanqing finally relaxed and smiled.
Newborn babies had to cry. However, this cry wasn't about shedding tears, but a full-throated wail. That was a sign of health. Before, the baby only cried tears without making a sound, and she had feared that amniotic fluid was stuck in the baby's throat!
Lu Yang also smiled, carefully wiping Xiao Bao's tears with a handkerchief. "Still have tears?" he asked, looking amused.
Papa?
How could Papa be so mean too!
Xiao Bao was shocked, her eyes wide with disbelief as she looked at the Papa who had just mocked her. This wasn't the Papa in her memory; it was a fake, a fake Papa!
Xiao Bao thought angrily and tried to turn her head away from Papa. She wanted to look at Brother Harvey and Sister Cuicui. She had heard Sister Cuicui's voice earlier too, so it couldn't be a hallucination. Sister Cuicui must be here too!
But no matter how hard she tried, her head wouldn't move!
Oh my!
Why was her head so heavy and unresponsive!
Newborn babies couldn't move much, especially not turn over.
Lu Wanqing watched the little one's eyeballs darting around, as if trying hard to look sideways. She found it incredibly amusing. She couldn't help but hold the little one and turn her towards the side.
Harvey and Cuicui had been waiting impatiently to see their sister. Now that Mama turned her head, they immediately leaned in.
But…
"Sister is so ugly!" Harvey, with no filter, blurted out. Newborn babies were red and wrinkled, and indeed, not pretty. He said it directly.
Xiao Bao was still reveling in the joy of seeing Brother Harvey and Sister Cuicui. Then, what did she hear?
Ugly?
Brother Harvey actually said she was ugly?
Xiao Bao got angry. She averted her gaze, not wanting to look at Brother Harvey. She turned to look at Cuicui.
Cuicui: "..."
Actually, Cuicui also thought she was quite ugly!
Before her sister was born, Cuicui had imagined countless possibilities, but none of them were like this. Red and wrinkled, covered in sticky goo, she looked not only ugly but also dirty.
Cuicui, who always cared about her appearance and cleanliness, felt no aversion towards her sister at that moment. On the contrary, looking at her ugly sister, her heart still skipped a beat uncontrollably. She loved her!
This was her sister, just like her, a sister nurtured by the genes of His Majesty Father and Mommy!
"Mommy, can I hold my sister?" Cuicui asked expectantly, looking at her mother.
Lu Wanqing smiled at Cuicui and nodded. "Of course."
Lu Wanqing carefully handed Xiao Bao over to Cuicui.
Cuicui carefully held her sister.
In the swaddling clothes, Xiao Bao looked at Sister Cuicui and finally grinned. She was right, Sister Cuicui was the best, the one who doted on her the most.
"Mommy, my sister is smiling!" Cuicui, seeing her sister smile, was overjoyed. She immediately looked up and excitedly showed off to her mother.
Lu Wanqing nodded quickly. "Mmm-hmm!"
Xiao Bao smiled. She saw it too. She was really cute!
Cuicui couldn't help but hold her sister, her eyes sparkling as she looked at her. At that moment, she no longer thought her sister was ugly. On the contrary, she thought her sister was beautiful, the most beautiful baby in the world!
"Mommy, can I call Papa Wei Xingzhou? I want to tell Papa the good news. Papa will definitely like my sister too. My sister is so beautiful!" The next moment, Cuicui looked at Lu Wanqing and said happily.
Lu Wanqing nodded at the mention of it. "Of course!"
As Lu Wanqing spoke, she reached out to take Xiao Bao back.
Xiao Bao, however, was stunned. Wei Xingzhou? Wasn't he here?
Xiao Bao tried to turn her head to look for him again, but alas, her head wouldn't turn. Ahhh, a baby's head was so infuriating, it wouldn't even move!
Lu Wanqing looked at the little one's lively eyes, thinking that Xiao Bao was unhappy because she had been suddenly taken from Sister Cuicui's arms and was still looking for Sister Cuicui. She quickly turned Xiao Bao towards Cuicui and said with a smile, "Sister Cuicui is making a call. She has another dad, and he's also a very, very good person."
Listening to Mama's words, Xiao Bao couldn't help but grumble inwardly. Of course, she knew Wei Xingzhou. That scoundrel, he always liked to scare her with strange toys. Although… although he would always bring many interesting toys to coax her, with all sorts of tricks, just like her second uncle, she still disliked him. Humph, he was a scoundrel too!
But…
Despite her huffing, Xiao Bao turned her eyes, a little curious to see Uncle Wei. She hadn't seen him in a long time. What did Uncle Wei look like at this time? She heard he was still a big star, very handsome, very good-looking?
As Xiao Bao was thinking, the call connected, and Wei Xingzhou's projection appeared in the incubation room.
"Papa, Xiao Bao is born!" Cuicui immediately told her father happily.
During their separation, Cuicui sent messages to Wei Xingzhou almost every day, so he was well aware of the happenings on this side, especially concerning Xiao Bao. This was because Cuicui's greatest concern these days was the impending birth of her sister, and she talked about this unborn sister almost daily.
Speaking of which, Wei Xingzhou was also looking forward to it. After all, she was Cuicui's full sister. Would she be as cute as Cuicui when she was little?
"Papa, look, Sister is here. Isn't she beautiful?" Cuicui said, turning the camera towards Xiao Bao, excitedly introducing her.
Wei Xingzhou saw Xiao Bao, and Xiao Bao saw Wei Xingzhou. At that instant, the big and small stared at each other.
"Hmm, so ugly. As expected, all babies look the same right after birth, all wrinkly and ugly!" Wei Xingzhou thought dismissively. However, for once, he didn't say it out loud.
