Kapitel 454: The Reason

Fortunately, this world observed a ten-month pregnancy term. All the necessary preparations had been made.

When his mother showed signs of labor, the female servants got busy boiling water and the midwife did her best. In the evening, Shen Lian was finally born.

Perhaps it was because of his incomplete development, Shen Lian was small in size. His mother too suffered tremendously in the process.

With her remaining strength, she spoke weakly, "Let me see my daughter."

Shen Lian found it strange, he thought, "Why is she so sure that I'm a daughter?"

The midwife had since washed Shen Lian up and handed him over with her trembling hands.

His mother hugged him and looked at him lovingly. Shen Lian felt unwell and shut his eyes.

His mother smiled and spoke, "She has such beautiful eyes, just like the stars in the sky."

The midwife smiled reluctantly.
