Chapter 597 Lu Xiyu and Lu Xiangyi (1)
The room was thoroughly disinfected, and all the bedding was brand new. Atop the white nightstand was a delicate glass vase, in which there was a bouquet of fresh white roses.
It was much more comfortable than regular hospital rooms.
Lu Boyan walked over, pulled up a chair, and sat by the bed, without taking his eyes off Su Jianan for a second.
Su Jianan was still asleep while the nutrient solution kept flowing into her body through the infusion tube and the syringe needle.
Lu Boyan held Su Jianans other hand. It was still very cold because of excessive blood loss.
He unconsciously wrapped her hand in his palms. He simply sat by the bed in silence, waiting for her to wake up.
It didnt mean that he cared nothing about their two newborn kids.
It was just that Su Jianan needed his company more.
Tang Yulan, Su Yicheng, and Luo Xiaoxi were all staying with the infants, while he was the only one by Su Jianans side.
Su Jianan had just been taken out of the operating room. He didnt want her to wake up and find no one beside her.
At least he was the one who would accompany her.
Su Jianan woke up earlier than Dr. Han had expected.
After sleeping for less than an hour, she slowly opened her eyes. In a daze, she saw Lu Boyans face and the infusion bottle that kept dripping.
Lu Boyan immediately noticed that. He held her hand and said in an anxious voice, Jianan?
Su Jianan sight gradually became clearer. She found that Lu Boyan was frowning like an old man who was enmeshed in worries.
She forced out a smile as she touched Lu Boyans face with her pale, cold fingers. Its all over. Why do you still look so worried?
Lu Boyan was sure that Su Jianan had regained her consciousness. He held her hand more tightly instead of letting it go.
He bowed his head and gently kissed her lips with sincerity. Honey, you have suffered a lot.
Su Jianan smiled as if nothing had happened.
Because of the cut in her belly, she didnt dare to move. She looked around the room and asked, Where are the babies? How long have I slept?
Less than an hour.
Lu Boyan was about to tell Su Jianan that the babies were taken to a bath. However, the door was opened before he could utter a word. Luo Xiaoxi rushed in and said,
The babies are coming back. Auntie Tang and Yicheng will soon bring them here! They received a lot of check-ups after the bath. Now there is one left. Its called Ap
Apgar. Su Jianan said, Its an abbreviation of activity, pulse, grimace, appearance, and respiration.
Yes, you said it. The test needs the blood from their heels. Luo Xiaoxis beautiful face contorted as she said, They were just born. Its so cruel to draw blood from babies, so I left the place.
Luo Xiaoxi obviously wasnt the only one who couldnt accept it. Lu Boyan also frowned at the end of her words.
Su Jianan noticed their frightened faces. She said, Its a routine check that every neonate needs.
I know, it will do good to the babies and their safetythats what the nurse said! Luo Xiaoxi looked at Su Jianan and said with excitement, The nurse said that the two little things were good-looking when she drew blood! The baby girl kept her eyes closed. Her elder brother fell asleep when he got bathed. He looked so cool!
The baby girl and her elder brother? Su Jianan wondered.
Su Jianan stared at Lu Boyan in disbelief, both surprised and unhappy.
She had once said that she would like to have a baby boy and a baby girl. She didnt expect that her dream had come true!
She thought that Lu Boyan should have told her about it as soon as she became conscious!
Lu Boyan touched Su Jianans head apologetically. Sorry. I was too worried about you to talk about our babies just now.
Su Jianan tried to get up by pressing her palms against the bed. Lu Boyan stopped her and said, The doctor said that youre not supposed to move around today.
I want to see my babies. Su Jianan sounded excited.
She still felt tired when she woke up.
However, at that moment, she could even carry her two babies at the same time, let alone getting out of bed to visit them!
Ill carry them here. Lu Boyan tucked Su Jianan in. Wait a minute. Stay in bed.
As soon as Lu Boyan left the ward, Luo Xiaoxi walked to the bed and bent down, beaming at Su Jianan. You have suffered a lot.
No big deal. Su Jianan grinned. By the way, who do the babies look like?
The baby girl is still sleeping. I cant tell. Luo Xiaoxi smiled. But her elder brother looks like your husband Boss Lu! Hes a carbon copy of his father. He nabbed the beauty genes from Lu Family.
Su Jianan gave her a brighter smile. At that moment, the door was opened. Lu Boyan and Su Yicheng entered the bedroom, each holding a baby in their arms. Tang Yulan followed them, beaming with joy.
Lu Boyan and Su Yicheng placed the infants on the bed and made them lie next to each other beside Su Jianan.
Su Jianan gazed at the two little babies in surprise and disbelief.
They were in the same baby clothes, wrapped in soft towels, looking smaller than she had imagined.
They had become infants in her belly, and they had finally come into the world. They would address her as mother and Lu Boyan as father, and gradually grow up into adults like them.
They were related to Lu Boyan and her by blood.
Su Jianan had wondered how to be a mother. At that moment, however, she knew that she wouldnt be bothered by it anymore.
The moment she saw them for the first time, she knew that she would have to always take care of them regardless of the winds and rains in life. She wanted them to grow up leisurely into sensible people and to witness the good side of the world.
She thought that she should do it because she was their mother.
Jianan. Luo Xiaoxi looked at Su Jianan and asked with a mysterious tone, Can you tell who is the older brother and who is the younger sister?
The baby boy was asleep. He looked like his younger sister as they both closed their eyes. The two infants were small in size, lying quietly beside Su Jianan, which made it difficult to tell who was the older one.
However, without even looking at them, Su Jianan pointed at the little one closer to her and said, This is the baby girl, and the other is her elder brother.
Luo Xiaoxi had wanted to make Su Jianan stumped but didnt expect that she would guess right. Luo Xiaoxi was surprised that she could recognize them at first glance, for she hadnt seen her babies!
Its amazing, Luo Xiaoxi said in admiration. She asked with a curious look, Jianan, how did you do that?
Su Jianan smiled. Its telepathy! Youll understand when you become a mother!
Luo Xiaoxi nodded and said, Then I dont think Ill understand it soon.
Su Jianan touched the baby girls tiny face. The baby girl suddenly stretched out her delicate hands. It looked like she was about to cry as if she was annoyed about being disturbed.
Then, she slowly opened her eyes.
Her eyes with double-fold eyelids looked like Su Jianans, dark and bright, filled with unique innocence that belonged to children.
If when her eyes were closed, she was like a quiet little princess, then she looked like an angel that had strayed into the mortal world when she opened her eyes.
If one took a closer look at her, they will find that her tiny face, delicate nose, and exquisite eyebrows all looked like Su Jianans. The more she looked at the baby girl, the more surprised she felt.
Su Jianan found that she couldnt take her eyes off the baby girl as she gazed at her. It wasnt because her eyes were beautiful, but because the little one was also gazing at her as if she knew that she was her mother. She felt close to the baby.
Su Jianan turned her head and kissed the babys cheek. Instead of showing annoyance, the baby girl raised her hand to touch Su Jianans face for a while before she put it down.
It softened Su Jianans heart. She smiled, feeling overwhelmed with a sense of happiness.
Luo Xiaoxi was moved. I also want to have a daughter
Su Jianan looked up at Luo Xiaoxi with a smile. She motioned for her to tell Su Yicheng about itHe was the only one who could help her no matter if she wanted a daughter or a son.
Luo Xiaoxi looked away, pretending that she noticed nothing.
Tang Yulan walked over and gazed at the two babies next to Su Jianan, with eyes full of love. The most important thing now is naming them. We havent thought of any names for the babies yet.
Mom, didnt you think of one? Su Jianan said, Xinyi.
Lu Xinyi? Tang Yulan thought for a moment and shook her head. In my days, the name might have been good, but its too common now. I dont want to give my lovely granddaughter such an ordinary name.
Therefore, they had to rethink the names for both the baby boy and the baby girl.
Su Jianan winked at Lu Boyan as she drew her covers.
They had reached an agreement: she would be in charge of the physical laborto bring their babies into the world; Lu Boyan should do the mental workto name them.
Lu Boyan raised his eyebrow. Do I have to name them both?
Ill help you. Su Jianan pondered for a while. In fact, Xinyi sounds good, but it may be a duplicate of others. Lets change Xin to Xiang and call her Lu Xiangyi. What do you think?
As the poem goes, Dan zhuang nong mo zong xiang yi. It meant in plain or gorgeous dress, she looks her best. Xiangyi was a wonderful name for a girl.
Luo Xiaoxi raised her hand. Although its none of my business, I still want to say that I agree with it.
Su Jianan asked Tang Yulan, Mom, whats your opinion?
Thats good. Tang Yulan couldnt help nodding as she thought about the name. Its nice.
Yes! Su Jianan looked at Lu Boyan with pride and said in a provocative tone, Now the rest is up to you.
Lu Boyan squatted down. He looked at the baby boy next to Xiangyi while caressing his face. A few moments later, he said,
What about Xiyu? Xi means west, and yu means meet.
Lu Xiyu.
Although others didnt know whether the name had any special meaning, they all thought that it was a nice name.
They all concurred with the name. Su Jianan was the only one lost in her memories as she whispered the name in her heart
