Let's Divorce As Agreed

781  Baby Gu Reporting For Duty (2)

Gu Shaoting paused for a moment, and then quickly, the sound of Shu Pan's pain came from the delivery room again.

"Why hasn't she given birth yet?" Gu Shaoting couldn't help but ask.

"Don't worry, it's only been half an hour since we went in. It always takes some time," Song Can reassured him.

"Only half an hour." Gu Shaoting glanced at his watch. "Why does it feel like a century has passed?"

Song Can smirked; she understood the feeling of becoming a father.

Finally, amidst everyone's anticipation, the crisp cry of a baby came from the delivery room. Shu Pan gave birth to a seven-pound baby boy with thick black hair, a loud voice, and even a little thing between his legs.

Gu Shaoting slowly slid down the wall, feeling almost exhausted by this mother and child. Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Before long, a nurse emerged, cradling a newborn baby. He was tiny, all wrapped up, red all over, and his eyes were closed.

The expressions on everyone's faces varied. When Shu Pan knew it was a boy, she wasn't surprised at all; she had a feeling already. But Song Can was a bit taken aback. Wasn't it supposed to be a girl, matching the symptoms?

But seeing the baby's adorable face, she had completely forgotten about it.

"Oh, he looks just like a younger Shaoting," Song Can exclaimed excitedly. "He's definitely going to be a handsome one in the future."

Gu Shaoting saw the small, soft baby and hesitated to reach out and hold him.

Wait, the baby's out, where's the grown-up?

"Nurse, where's my wife?" Gu Shaoting suddenly asked nervously, not seeing Shu Pan come out.

"Still need to do some stitching. Just wait a bit longer. Everything's fine," the nurse replied, thinking that since it involved somewhat technical matters, they probably wouldn't understand, so she brushed it off.

Gu Shaoting breathed a sigh of relief.

While the nurse took the baby for examination, Song Can followed closely, worried that the baby might get switched, as reported in the news.

Gu Shaoting waited outside. After about 40 minutes, Shu Pan was pushed out, half-conscious.

Gu Shaoting bent down to look at her, realizing she was asleep, and finally felt relieved.

But after such a long struggle, Shu Pan was completely exhausted, her face terribly pale.

Ye Xiaomeng, who was beside her, also came out, looking weary.

"Gu Shaoting, be nicer to Shu Pan in the future, really. She's risking her life to have this baby because of her small pelvis and the big baby. Shu Pan has suffered a lot," Ye Xiaomeng said, visibly shaken. She hadn't experienced such pain even when giving birth herself; her hands were all scratched.

"Thank you, Xiaomeng. Go back and rest. You have a baby at home to take care of. You've done enough," Gu Shaoting said gratefully. "She'll probably wake up in a while."

"Alright, I'll come see her later." Ye Xiaomeng thought of the hungry baby waiting at home, so she left.

Not long after she left, the nurse brought the baby back, with Song Can following behind. Since there were professional caregivers in the hospital taking care of the baby, everyone felt relieved. Gu Shaoting persuaded Song Can to go back and rest, as they had all been at the hospital all day and were tired.

"Okay, I'll go back and make some rice porridge. I'll bring it over later; Shu Pan can have it when she wakes up. I'll bring some snacks for you as well," Song Can said after a moment of thought.

After everyone left, Gu Shaoting waited for Shu Pan to wake up in the VIP ward. Since he hadn't slept for a day and a night, he was also very tired and soon fell asleep on the bed.
