Shen Chi grabbed her hand, and together they stroked Wealth's small head.
Wealth didn't shy away, letting them touch him, and even seemed to enjoy it.
Shen Chi noticed that Xu Chaomu treated Wealth as if he were her own baby, her eyes full of tenderness and affection.
Indeed, after stroking Wealth for a while, Xu Chaomu asked, "The baby is really okay, right?"
"It's okay, just premature, a bit weak," Shen Chi told a lie.
"Did you hear him cry?" Xu Chaomu asked again. She found speaking very strenuous now, but she still wanted to talk.
She frowned, her eyes unable to hide a glimmer of hope.
Shen Chi looked at her, but after only a few seconds on her face, he averted his gaze. He didn't dare to look into her eyes.
"I heard it," Shen Chi lied to her again.
"Then did you see him?"
"I didn't see him, but the doctor said he's adorable," Shen Chi intentionally tugged at the corners of his mouth, forcing a faint smile.
"I want to see him..." Xu Chaomu said.
