Becoming The Bigshot's Only Love After Breaking Her Engagement-Chapter 588: The CEO’s Wife-Chasing Redemption Arc
Ningwan spoke weakly, "Quick, get up and see your little daughter."
Zhan Hanjue stood up, looking at the small bundle in the nurse’s arms, a bit overwhelmed.
Such a tiny baby, how should he hold her without hurting her?
"What a cute baby, let me hold her," Lin Yue exclaimed excitedly as she reached out.
Zhan Hanjue, speechless, immediately slapped her hand away: "Back off, as her father, I should hold her first." 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖
Lying on the hospital bed, Ningwan found it both funny and exasperating. Watching Lin Yue’s aggrieved expression, she immediately took out her phone, snapped a photo, and sent it to Wan Tianning.
Accompanied by a caption: Poor Lin Yue, trying to hold the baby but being turned down.
"You’re not holding her yourself and won’t let me hold her either?" Lin Yue grumbled.
Zhan Hanjue replied, "Who said I wouldn’t hold her? I’ll hold her right away."
With that, he carefully extended his hands to take the little one.
Lin Yue shouted beside him, "Be careful, that’s not the way to hold her. Have you learned how to hold a baby? She’s uncomfortable in your arms."
It was Zhan Hanjue’s first time holding such a small, real baby, and he was already nervous. Lin Yue’s comment made him even more tense.
However, holding a baby in his arms, he didn’t dare speak loudly and could only make eye gestures at Lin Yue.
Lin Yue was puzzled by his gestures and turned to Ningwan, "Sis, he’s giving me flirtatious looks."
Zhan Hanjue: "..."
"I told you to shut up and keep your distance." He squeezed out a few words through gritted teeth, wishing he could kick her away.
Ningwan laughed at their antics, unable to resist saying, "I just gave birth, my stitches aren’t healed. Stay away from me and don’t make me laugh."
Blushing, Lin Yue decided to leave to give them their family time.
"Sis, I’ll go get some delicious food first. Let me know whatever you feel like eating."
"Something light will do," Ningwan replied.
Though the hospital had postpartum meals prepared, and Zhan Hanjue had already hired a professional team, she still appreciated Lin Yue’s goodwill.
Lin Yue left overjoyed.
Once Lin Yue was out the door, Zhan Hanjue also breathed a sigh of relief.
He carefully brought his precious daughter to Ningwan and said, "I was so nervous when Lin Yue kept talking. Wanwan, does my way of holding her look right?"
"It’s right. You see, she’s already comfortably asleep. It’s definitely right," Ningwan praised.
Zhan Hanjue was elated.
Actually, he had attended several classes on holding newborns and caring for them.
Despite being so busy, he made sure to free up time to attend these classes for his little treasure.
However, in class, they used props.
Even though he felt confident, he still asked Ningwan to be reassured.
But unexpectedly, the little one wasn’t cooperating.
Just as Ningwan finished praising Zhan Hanjue for holding the baby well, the little one opened her eyes, glanced at Zhan Hanjue with her bright, black eyes, and started wailing.
Zhan Hanjue was startled, and nervously said to Ningwan, "Wanwan, something’s wrong. She’s crying."
Ningwan replied, "Crying is normal. She probably feels hungry. Give her to me, I’ll feed her."
"She glanced at me earlier, does that mean she disliked me or isn’t satisfied with me as her father?" Zhan Hanjue asked sadly.
Ningwan was speechless, "You’re overthinking it. Newborns don’t have such good eyesight. She can’t see you, it’s all your imagination."
"Ah, she can’t see me?" Zhan Hanjue was surprised.
Ningwan took the baby into her arms, opened her shirt, and began feeding her.
While breastfeeding, she explained, "When a child is just born, they see things in black and white. Your face is far from her, so naturally, she can’t see you."
"Oh, I see," Zhan Hanjue said.
But soon his face flushed, unsure where to look.
Though they had been married for years, he still felt embarrassed watching Ningwan breastfeed.
Ningwan quickly noticed his discomfort and teasingly asked, "You’re not blushing, are you?"
Zhan Hanjue awkwardly replied, "Of course not."
Just then, Lin Yue knocked on the door from outside.
"Sis, I’m..."
After knocking, he entered, but was quickly stopped by Zhan Hanjue who rushed to block the door.
"You can’t come in, it’s inconvenient right now."
"Why can’t I go in? What’s inconvenient about it?" Lin Yue asked with a puzzled expression, holding a thermal container.
Zhan Hanjue replied sternly, "It’s inconvenient, just don’t ask so many questions."
"Zhan Hanjue, you’re too domineering, not even explaining why it’s inconvenient to go in. I want to give sis her food; she must be hungry."
"I will handle her meals; you don’t need to worry. She’s currently... feeding the baby, so it’s inappropriate for you to go in."
"Feeding the baby?" Lin Yue furrowed his brows.
He wondered, how could a newborn eat solid food?
But soon he realized, and blushed as well.
He handed the thermal container to Zhan Hanjue, saying, "Give this to sis, it was made by a nutritionist and is very light, perfect for postpartum mothers. Since you’re here taking care of her, you won’t need me. I’ll leave now."
With that, he left the room.
Zhan Hanjue sighed in relief, thinking he needed to hire a security guard for tomorrow to keep watch outside.
Otherwise, what if someone walked in without knocking while his wife was feeding?
Ningwan didn’t understand his concerns.
After feeding the baby, she soon fell asleep.
Ningwan asked Zhan Hanjue to put her in the crib.
But Zhan Hanjue was reluctant to let go, now that he knew how to hold the baby. Holding her felt so delightful, he didn’t want to stop.
"You shouldn’t get used to holding her all the time, or she’ll expect you to hold her always," Ningwan reminded.
Laughing, Zhan Hanjue replied, "Then I’ll hold her all the time. Look at how cute she is, I’m more than willing to hold her endlessly."
"Even if you’re willing, I’m not. When you go to work, it’ll be me holding her. Quickly put her down, it’s important for babies to develop good habits and not be spoiled."
Although they had hired various staff, including a maternity nurse and a childcare worker, Zhan Hanjue had hired them.
Nonetheless, Ningwan felt that the baby should spend more time with her parents.
That’s why, usually, she wouldn’t hand the baby over to them.
At this point, Zhan Hanjue wouldn’t dare disobey his wife and reluctantly placed the precious one in her crib.
The little one twitched her nose, moved her lips slightly, but soon settled again.
She looked incredibly adorable.
Zhan Hanjue leaned by the crib, his gaze soft, unwilling to look away.
He watched for a long time until Ningwan called him to pour some water to drink, bringing him back to reality.
Then, he turned to look at Ningwan, speaking deeply, "Wanwan, thank you."
Ningwan paused, surprised at him.
Soon, she chuckled, smiling, "You’re welcome. Let’s cherish our future together."
