Married the Tough Guy After Transmigrating-Chapter 457: The Birth of the Child

"Wah~" As the child’s cries echoed, Mrs. Xu instantly breathed a sigh of relief, her face alight with surprise as she rushed toward the operating room door.

"My daughter! Where’s my daughter?" As soon as Mrs. Xu saw the door open, she scurried over to check on her own daughter.

Second Aunt Xu, on the other hand, busied herself with watching the babies to avoid them being switched, as some unscrupulous hospitals claimed infants had died at birth when in fact the medical staff had taken them away secretly.

There were also those involved in baby-swappings, all kinds of characters existed.

"The mother is weak now and has fainted, but there’s no serious issue, I expect she’ll wake up soon.

"The twins are dragon-phoenix twins, the girl weighing five pounds and six ounces born after the boy, who came out first at four pounds and three ounces. The boy is a little light in weight and was even eager to be the older brother, haha, but he’s very healthy. Congratulations," the doctor said, smiling broadly.

Twins are not common, let alone dragon-phoenix twins, which are an even more auspicious sign of happiness.

Huo Chen didn’t even glance at the babies and followed Mrs. Xu straight to Xu Ying’s side, his heart aching as he looked at her lying pale and unconscious on the bed.

He wouldn’t have another child in the future, it was too dangerous. He was terrifiied his wife would meet the same fate as his mother.

Only heaven knew the fear in his heart watching so much blood being carried out.

Xu Ying and the babies were taken to the ward together.

Mrs. Xu, seeing her daughter was okay, had her thoughts captured by the two little ones.

They had come for Jingjing’s wedding, but who would have thought her daughter would suddenly go into labor, and they were unprepared.

Mrs. Xu followed into the ward, looking at the two little ones with adoration.

These were her beloved daughter’s children, and in keeping with the notion of loving the house and its crow, Mrs. Xu found herself growing fonder of the children the more she looked at them.

Huo Chen sat by Xu Ying’s side, his hands tightly gripping one of hers.

"Huo Chen, aren’t you going to look at your daughter and son? Look how adorable these two little ones are.

Especially the little girl, she’s the spitting image of our Xu Ying—it’s as if they were carved from the same mold, with identical eyes and mouths.

This boy’s eyebrows and nose resemble Huo Chen, but his eyes are just like our Yingying’s," Second Aunt Xu exclaimed as she admired the infants.

Mrs. Xu cast a glance at Huo Chen, remembering the antics he’d pulled off in the days before, and her heart harbored some lingering anger.

Yet, seeing his worried expression about her daughter today didn’t seem feigned, leaving her unsure what to make of him right now.

Mr. Xu’s face was equally complex; he had harbored a belly full of rage towards Huo Chen, but now, after this ordeal, there was nowhere to unleash it.

He knew Huo Chen’s character, which didn’t seem to match that of an ungrateful man, but the events of the past few days still pricked his heart like a thorn.

After his daughter recovered, he would settle the score with Huo Chen.

Hearing that the children resembled Xu Ying, Huo Chen grew curious and peered over, his disdain hard to hide with the curl of his lips.

Xu Jingjing, watching the babies from the side, couldn’t help but show her distaste: "Auntie, how can this child look like Yingying, with wrinkly skin and so dark? And such small eyes, not at all like Yingying."

Weren’t all babies supposed to be cute? She didn’t find them the least bit adorable; they looked more like monkeys.

Mrs. Xu was displeased to hear this: "How can you say she doesn’t look like her? Yingying looked the same when she was small, she just hasn’t unfolded yet. Wait a couple of months, she’ll definitely be beautiful."

Xu Jingjing remained disdainful, but she had to admit, the tiny feet and hands were quite cute, aside from the red buttocks and dark complexion.

She looked at Xu Ying and Huo Chen, believing she had solved the mystery—these children’s skin tone was like her brother-in-law’s.

Perhaps sensing the aversion, the two little ones simultaneously burst into cries.

As the babies cried, Mrs. Xu immediately took them into her arms and tried to soothe them, but the little ones weren’t having it, not in the least.

At her wit’s end, Mrs. Xu brought the babies next to her daughter, and strangely enough, as soon as she did, the children abruptly stopped crying.

"Well, would you look at that, the kids even recognize people already," Second Aunt Xu joked from the side.

Mrs. Xu watched the child and couldn’t stop herself from laughing, "This child knows who his own mother is."

Huo Chen looked at the two little ones beside Xu Ying and was involuntarily attracted to them. These two little ones were his children.

Watching the two small children, Huo Chen’s face showed a compassionate fatherly smile.

Xu Ying, lying on the hospital bed, slowly opened her eyes and immediately felt the ache in her abdomen. She sucked in a breath of cold air and turned to speak to Huo Chen at her side, "Huo Chen, the children—"

She was just about to ask about the children when she saw the two little ones lying beside her. Her eyes instantly softened.

"Wife, you’re finally awake," Huo Chen said from the side, his voice filled with grievance.

The faces of everyone in the room changed, filled with shock as they looked at Huo Chen.

Was this still the man who always had a cold expression on his face?

Now with such a pitiful look, he seemed like a completely different person.

Xu Ying saw Huo Chen’s weak smile and teased, "What’s wrong, you thought I wouldn’t wake up?

How could that be possible? With you and the children, and with Dad and Mom, how could I possibly not wake up?"

After speaking, Xu Ying looked curiously at the two children and asked, "Which one is the older one? Is it this one in my arms?"

It wasn’t Xu Ying speaking off the cuff, seeing as the one in her arms seemed to be a whole size chubbier than the one outside; that must mean this one came out first, right?

"No, the boy beside was born first; this girl came out after. This boy certainly wanted to be the older brother, so he came out ahead," Mrs. Xu said with a laugh.

A full smile spread across Xu Ying’s face. To be so competitive even when so small, he really hated to lose.

Looking at the two tiny babies, Xu Ying’s heart melted.

Indeed, one only understands that feeling after becoming a mother.

After sitting with them for a while, Mrs. Xu stood up and said to Huo Chen, "You go buy some chicken soup for Xu Ying to replenish her body.

I’ll go with your Second Aunt Xu to the nearby supply and marketing cooperative to buy some daily necessities and joyful clothes for Xu Ying and the children."

Generally, after a cesarean section, one must stay in the hospital for some time and cannot be discharged directly like after a natural birth.

They had to stay at the hospital during this time, so these things were indispensable.

Huo Chen stood up and thought of the people from Yang Village, his brows furrowing, "I’ll go shopping with you.

Those people won’t dare to mess around with me there."

Mrs. Xu, reminded by him, instantly thought of that gang of bandits and immediately nodded her head. Before leaving, she didn’t forget to instruct her sons, "Take good care of your sister and the children.

I’m afraid those people might come to the hospital."

Xu scratched his head, "It shouldn’t come to that."

But he still nodded and took her advice to heart.

Only then did Mrs. Xu and Second Aunt Xu follow Huo Chen out of the hospital.

On the other side, the Yang Village Chief had been waiting at home for a few hours and, not seeing a call from his brothers, grew anxious and made a call.

To his surprise, as soon as the call connected, a torrent of cursing came through, "Yang Zhanchao, you fucking ruined me.

You didn’t make it clear to us that there was a Super Strength Monster among that group, damn it, a few of my brothers are now lying in the hospital.

Some with broken bones, some with dislocated wrists, now tell me what we’re going to do.

For your little issue, we’ve wasted time, effort, and money," grumbled Yang Zhanqi, his belly full of fire. freewebnøvel.coɱ
