The Prince Wants to Assassinate Me Every Day-Chapter 1099 - 688: Deep Yearning (Fourth Update)

"Sir, please calm down. The General will be fine soon," the maid said from inside.

She was truly frightened by the master’s panic at that moment.

She had never seen him so unsettled before.

"How is the General?" Song Yanqing asked loudly at the door.

"Rest assured, Sir, mother and daughter are both safe."

"Great, great," Song Yanqing immediately replied.

He desperately wanted to go inside.

Inside the room.

Xie Ruotong was thoroughly exhausted.

More tired than after a battle, completely drained.

An Ning comforted Xie Ruotong for a while and brought over her daughter.

The tiny, red, wrinkled baby cried a few times and then stopped.

Her small eyes were now open, curiously observing the world around her.

An Ning held the baby in front of Xie Ruotong, "It’s a daughter, very cute."

Xie Ruotong turned her gaze over.

Seeing her own daughter...

Her heart melted completely.

Just when the pain was so unbearable, she felt none of the feelings of becoming a mother.

Now, seeing her daughter, all the emotions were different.

She looked for a long time and suddenly thought of something, "An Ning, help me take her out for Song Yanqing to see."

An Ning couldn’t help but laugh, "So eager to share your happiness with him?"

"..." Xie Ruotong’s face blushed, denying half-heartedly, "I’m just afraid he’ll make a fool of himself outside."

An Ning didn’t expose Xie Ruotong.

She took the baby and walked out.

Outside the room.

Song Yanqing desperately wanted to go inside.

Suddenly the door opened.

He froze.

Seeing An Ning and the baby in her arms.

His heart raced once again.

He was incredibly nervous.

This was his daughter?!

This was the daughter he and Xie Ruotong had?!

She’s so tiny.

So adorable.

"Hold her," An Ning handed the baby to Song Yanqing.

Song Yanqing’s hands trembled.

It was his first time holding such a small child.

Wrapped in a soft cotton blanket, she was all soft.

He looked closely at his daughter, who also looked at him with her curious, wide-open eyes.

And then she smiled at him with a sudden grin.

Song Yanqing felt his heart stop.

So this is what it feels like to be a father.

If only.

He could give her the best in the world.

His eyes suddenly reddened.

With a slight sob, he said, "I’m your dad."

An Ning watched Song Yanqing’s doting expression from the side.

She already knew Song Yanqing was a sensitive person, but she didn’t expect him to be this emotional.

In that moment, she suddenly wondered.

If Xiao Jinxing had been by her side during childbirth, would he hold Youyou and Luming like this as well?!

An Ning suddenly felt.

There were indeed many regrets left between her and Xiao Jinxing.

But she felt that there was still a long time in life.

Many things could be remedied.

"Newborns shouldn’t be outside for too long, I’ll take her back in," An Ning urged.

Song Yanqing was visibly reluctant.

But for the baby’s sake, he obediently handed her back to An Ning.

An Ning glanced at Song Yanqing’s longing eyes and found it quite amusing.

A big man with completely red eyes.

"How’s Ruotong?" Song Yanqing asked.

His gaze involuntarily drifted inside for a few glances.

"I thought you’d forget about your wife after having a daughter," An Ning teased.

Song Yanqing was a bit embarrassed.

His expression toward his daughter was indeed a bit... embarrassing.

He rubbed his eyes and slightly shyly said, "Having a child in old age, I’m embarrassed."

An Ning couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

Song Yanqing was a comedian, wasn’t he?!

But thinking about it, in ancient times, having a first child at Song Yanqing’s age of 27 or 28 was indeed considered having a child in old age.

She said, "Ruotong is fine. Once the room is tidied up, you can come in and keep her company."

"Thank you, Madam," Song Yanqing said sincerely.

Without her today, Xie Ruotong’s childbirth would certainly have been much more torturous for him.

An Ning nodded slightly, said no more, and carried the baby back into the room.

By now everything inside was mostly cleaned up.

Xie Ruotong was already cleaned up, lying in the cozy bed.

An Ning handed her daughter back over, jokingly said, "Song Yanqing is absolutely smitten with her, you better watch your position."

"..." Xie Ruotong smiled.

She could already imagine how Song Yanqing would react.

During pregnancy, the two of them had actually talked about the child’s gender.

Xie Ruotong really wanted to have a boy.

Not for continuing the family line.

Of course, inevitably there was a little thought of that, but ultimately, it was secondary.

She mainly wanted to nurture a military talent.

She knew very well how difficult it was for a woman to become a general in a place where men were superior to women, and how much scorn and ridicule she would have to endure.

If it were a boy, he wouldn’t have to endure so much criticism.

If it were a girl, she feared she wouldn’t have the heart to let her go to the military camp with her, facing the elements.

Song Yanqing probably couldn’t bear it either.

No matter how Xie Ruotong said it, Song Yanqing was determined to have a daughter.

Said Youyou completely melted his heart.

If they had a daughter like Youyou, he would have no regrets in this life.

Unexpectedly.

It was a daughter.

It was exactly what Song Yanqing wished for.

Song Yanqing was probably ecstatic.

At that moment.

Outside, Song Yanqing was finally allowed to come in.

In the feudal society of ancient times.

Men weren’t allowed to see women’s blood; it was considered a bad omen.

Although An Ning didn’t agree, in such an environment, she had no choice but to go with the flow, so she didn’t stop Song Yanqing from being present during childbirth.

Now Song Yanqing came in and saw Xie Ruotong at that moment.

His eyes reddened again.

Xie Ruotong was a bit speechless.

It wasn’t him suffering the pain of childbirth.

Why was he crying?!

"Ruotong, you suffered," Song Yanqing tightly held Xie Ruotong’s hand, his voice choked and unclear.

"..." Xie Ruotong found it very cheesy.

There were still many people in the room.

"I will definitely treat you well and treat our daughter well," Song Yanqing promised with a sob.

"I know," Xie Ruotong said, then soothed, "Hey, stop crying, it’s quite embarrassing."

Song Yanqing wiped his tears.

Seemed to try to control, yet couldn’t control it at all.

In the room, many maids, the midwife, wet nurse, and others were amused.

This was probably the first time, a woman gave birth, and the man ended up crying uncontrollably.

An Ning also chuckled beside.

Feeling inexplicably warm.

She truly felt such a scene was beautiful.

For the first time, she felt a bit envious of those in love who could be so happily together.

Also, in an instant, the figure of Xiao Jinxing suddenly appeared in her mind again.

She lightly bit her lip, deeply hiding the yearning in her heart.

She thought, when she saw Xiao Jinxing everything would be alright.

Once she saw him, there would be fewer regrets in her life.
