Ten Thousand Soul Banner: Deceased, do you have any unfulfilled wishes?-Chapter 1129 - 1125: Alien
"He’s so ugly."
Duoduo lay beside the crib, her small hands gripping the railing, her tone full of disdain.
"Exactly, he looks like an alien," Dou Dou immediately chimed in.
Weiwei also leaned in curiously, looking at the small baby with its eyes closed and mouth gently moving, and asked in a low voice, "Were we like this when we were little?"
"Then we must have been aliens when we were little!" Dou Dou declared confidently.
The three little ones exchanged glances and burst into a fit of giggles.
Just then, the door of the nearby care room creaked open, a dim yellow light spilled in, illuminating a corner of the hospital room.
Ruan Xiangqian walked out, still drowsy.
The two babysitters sitting on the sofa immediately stood up and greeted him respectfully, "Mr. Ruan."
"You go ahead and rest, don’t mind me."
Ruan Xiangqian waved his hand, his voice hoarse from just waking up, "I’ll take the baby in to feed."
Newborns need to be fed frequently, unlike adults with regular meals three times a day.
This is also the most exhausting part, often leaving the parents thoroughly worn out and sleep deprived.
The two babysitters exchanged glances, a hint of helplessness in their eyes.
According to their experience, this little one was sleeping soundly and there was no need to wake him specifically for feeding; he’d naturally cry for food when hungry, which would be the best time.
But they also understood Ruan Xiangqian’s sentiments. This was a child he had late in life, extraordinarily cherished and protected, he couldn’t bear to let the baby cry from hunger.
Understandingly, they didn’t say much more and simply stood quietly aside.
It’s often said that the first child is raised by the book, the second like a pig, but this didn’t apply to the Ruan couple at all.
This precious son of theirs was awaited for half a lifetime, even more cherished than when Ruan Hongzhuang was born, loved a hundredfold.
Ruan Xiangqian carefully picked up the little one from the crib and turned to walk into the room.
The three little ones saw this and immediately followed him inside.
Jiang Yingxue was already awake, leaning against the headboard in loose pajamas, looking quite well-rested.
Seeing Ruan Xiangqian bring the baby in, she smiled gently.
Ruan Xiangqian quickly walked to the bedside and carefully handed the baby to her.
Jiang Yingxue skillfully lifted her blouse and brought the nipple to the little one’s mouth.
The little one, who had been sleeping with eyes closed, instinctively began to suckle.
"So it’s drinking Nai Nai," Dou Dou suddenly understood, leaning by the bed with eyes wide open.
"He’s a little baby, of course he needs to drink Nai Nai," Duoduo rolled her eyes at her, thinking such a statement was redundant.
Dou Dou smacked her lips, staring curiously and greedily at the little one in Jiang Yingxue’s arms, "I wonder what Nai Nai tastes like, I want to try it too."
"Then you should ask Granny Jiang if she’ll let you try a bit, hehe."
Duoduo deliberately teased her, her eyes full of mischievous amusement.
Dou Dou, being quite earnest, immediately said, "Okay, okay."
Before the words were out of her mouth, she suddenly appeared, her small figure popping up by the bed.
The sudden appearance startled Ruan Xiangqian and Jiang Yingxue, causing Jiang Yingxue to shudder and almost drop the baby in her arms.
Luckily, being on a bed meant it wouldn’t hurt even if dropped, but still, Jiang Yingxue broke out in a cold sweat, patting her chest and gasping.
Once they realized it was Dou Dou standing by the bed, the couple breathed a sigh of relief.
"You little rascal, scared the life out of me," Jiang Yingxue scolded lightly, glancing at Dou Dou with faux annoyance, "What are you doing here in the middle of the night?"
"I’m here to see the little baby," Dou Dou replied cheerfully.
"Are you here alone?" Ruan Xiangqian quickly looked around and asked quietly.
"Duoduo and Weiwei are here too," Dou Dou pointed beside her.
The couple knew Duoduo, but who was this "Weiwei"?
Before they could think further, Duoduo also revealed herself.
With the earlier event as a prelude, the couple wasn’t startled this time, merely shaking their heads with a smile.
"Duoduo is here too?"
Jiang Yingxue smiled at her, gently asking, "Isn’t the little baby cute?"
Dou Dou immediately tried to respond, but Duoduo quickly covered her mouth from behind.
"Yes... very cute, hehe."
Duoduo chuckled awkwardly, pressing Dou Dou’s head down to prevent her from speaking carelessly.
Dou Dou, feeling uncomfortable from being muffled, struggled hard, her short legs kicking, completely confused as to why Duoduo was covering her mouth.
Duoduo’s little thought couldn’t be hidden from Ruan Xiangqian and Jiang Yingxue.
Jiang Yingxue looked at Dou Dou’s impatient demeanor and couldn’t help but burst into laughter: "Alright, alright, Grandma knows what Dou Dou wants to say. Isn’t it just that the baby looks ugly, don’t stop her from saying it."
"Hehe~"
Duoduo, having her little scheme seen through, smiled awkwardly before letting go.
As soon as she was freed, Dou Dou couldn’t wait to shout, "Hey, we were all aliens when we were little~"
As soon as these words were said, Ruan Xiangqian and Jiang Yingxue couldn’t help but laugh quietly, and the room was instantly filled with a joyful atmosphere.
"Um... hey hey..."
Even the little baby in Jiang Yingxue’s arms seemed to be infected by the laughter, stopping its sucking, its little mouth curling up, making two gurgling sounds as if it was laughing along.
And Weiwei, at the side, was already staring dumbfounded. She pulled Duoduo’s clothes corner, curiously asking, "Why can they see you all? Are they... are they ghosts like me?"
As she spoke, she couldn’t help but rush in front of Ruan Xiangqian, waving her little hand vigorously, but Ruan Xiangqian’s gaze didn’t fall on her at all.
Unwilling to give up, she reached out wanting to touch the baby in Jiang Yingxue’s arms.
"Don’t touch~"
Dou Dou, quick-eyed and quick-handed, slapped her hand away.
Weiwei dared to touch the baby but not Ruan Xiangqian and his wife because adults have abundant life energy, with the three fires burning fiercely, and ghosts get easily burned by touching them.
But for the newborn baby, the three fires were like weak candle flames, not causing harm to ghosts. This is also why children are most likely to invite ghosts and see them.
"Are there... other people in the room?"
Jiang Yingxue keenly sensed something was amiss. She held the child tighter to her chest, a trace of vigilance flashing in her eyes, and her tone also carried a bit of displeasure.
After just giving birth, having strangers like ghosts in the ward isn’t very auspicious.
Of course, Dou Dou and Duoduo are exceptions; they are not just ordinary ghosts, but also immortals.
Jiang Yingxue was well aware of this, after all, Dou Dou had boasted to her countless times since being named "Only See Wolf" and Vanguard General.
Having an immortal visit the child is an immense honor.
"It’s Weiwei." Duoduo pointed to Weiwei beside them and softly explained.
The couple exchanged glances, remembering Dou Dou mentioning this name earlier.
Ruan Xiangqian was the first to speak, gently asking, "Who is Weiwei?"
"She’s the little sister we met downstairs!" Dou Dou eagerly answered.
"She’s a big sister!" Duoduo promptly corrected her, "Weiwei looks older than you."
"I’m seven years old this year." Weiwei said.
Upon hearing this, Dou Dou instantly deflated like a punctured balloon, sulkily muttering, "Okay, she’s the big sister."
Jiang Yingxue, having been around Shen Siyuan and others for a long time, was more receptive to these matters and asked softly, "So why is she in the hospital?"
"Her dad is a delivery man; she’s waiting for her dad here..." Dou Dou scratched her head, explaining intermittently.
Duoduo added a few words, briefly explaining Weiwei’s situation.
Upon hearing and understanding the reason, Jiang Yingxue said, "Are you going to take her to see her brother?"
Duoduo and Dou Dou cast their gaze on Weiwei beside them.
Weiwei looked at them in a daze, completely not understanding what they were talking about.
Dou Dou discontentedly said, "I said I’m an immortal, and she didn’t believe me, saying I couldn’t bless her dad with wealth."
But at this moment, Weiwei finally began to believe a bit.
Ruan Xiangqian and Jiang Yingxue, upon hearing Dou Dou’s words, also showed smiles.
However, they were more curious as to why Weiwei would want an immortal to bless her dad with wealth, considering it wouldn’t be unusual for an adult, but for a child, such a request is quite strange.
"Because her dad works very hard and spent a lot of money on her medical treatment." Duoduo said.
The couple nodded in understanding, and then Jiang Yingxue sighed, "Weiwei is also a sensible child."
Ruan Xiangqian said, "You can’t bless him, but I can. Have Weiwei give her dad’s contact information to me, and I can make him wealthy."
Jiang Yingxue looked at him with some surprise.
Ruan Xiangqian smiled slightly, "Consider it a favor for my son."
Dou Dou looked at him in shock upon hearing this.
"You can bless her dad with wealth, are you the immortal?"
"Haha~" Ruan Xiangqian laughed softly again, not daring to laugh loudly, afraid of disturbing his son.
So Duoduo started communicating with Weiwei, asking her to provide her dad’s contact information.
Meanwhile, Dou Dou looked curiously at Jiang Yingxue, asking, "Granny Jiang, is Nai Nai tasty? Can I try it?"
Jiang Yingxue: ...
