h4Chapter 332: Chapter 332: Production/h4

This child truly holds extraordinary significance for them.

Ji Yu wanted to treat this child well, and also wanted to treat Gu Qixiao better.

However, before Ji Yu could say more, she suddenly felt sharp paining from her stomach.

At first, she thought it was just ordinary difort, but after some time, the pain grew increasingly intense. She had no choice but to call out for Gu Qixiao’s help.

"Gu Qixiao, I think I might be giving birth soon. Take me to the hospital first and let’s see what’s happening."

Gu Qixiao mentally calcted the months; there were still fifteen days until the due date. The sudden onset caught him off guard.

"Yu, are you sure you’re not mistaken?"

"Do I look like someone who’s mistaken about this? I’ve already held back for a while, and I’m very certain that I’m about to give birth." Ji Yu realized that he was probably scared out of his wits.

But now that the child was about to be born, there was no way she could endure it further. She could only urge Gu Qixiao to hurry and prepare.

Gu Qixiao, flustered, rushed Ji Yu to the hospital. In truth, no one could be more worried than him right now.

Looking at Ji Yu in such difort, his heart was filled with anxiety, terrified that something might go wrong with her.

"Don’t worry. It’s not as dramatic as you think." Ji Yu still had theposure tofort him, but seeing his expression, she couldn’t help feeling anxious herself.

Luckily, Ji Yuanzhou and the others arrived soon after and managed to call Gu Qixiao out of the room.

Ji Yu’sbor turned out to be exceptionally smooth.

The moment the baby was born, Gu Qixiao’s hands and feet went numb.

"How’s Yu doing?" He looked at the nurse, clearly still unable to rest assured about Ji Yu’s state.

"Rx, both the baby and the mother are perfectly fine. She’ll be brought out soon."

Truthfully, Gu Qixiao wasn’t in the mood to look at the baby just yet. Seeing Ji Yu pale and weakened, he wished he could endure the pain on her behalf.

Ji Yu couldn’t help butugh at his reaction, "Gu Qixiao, you look even more ufortable than me. Don’t I look fine enough?"

Besides, this baby seemed rather considerate.

Gu Qixiao remained silent but stayed beside Ji Yu, tightly holding her wrist the whole time, as if he feared letting go might bring unforeseen trouble.

Ji Yu looked at the situation in front of her and understood everything clearly.

Gu Qixiao was simply too worried.

"Gu Qixiao, I’m tired. I want to sleep for a while. Please don’t keep this up—it’s not good for you. You didn’t rest wellst night either, so take a nap too."

But how could he fall asleep?

After watching Ji Yu drift off to sleep, he still didn’t show any intention of leaving her side.

He stayed there for an entire day, and only when he was certain that Ji Yu was truly fine did his emotions start to settle somewhat.

As for the baby, there were so many people outside that he didn’t have to worry; naturally, there were plenty of others to take care of the child.

He managed to doze off for a little while beside Ji Yu.

When he woke up, the hospital room was already bustling with people, and Ji Yu was awake again.

Seeing Gu Qixiao like that, Ji Yu couldn’t help but chuckle, "Why are you still standing there looking so dazed?"

Gu Qixiao simply didn’t want to disturb the peaceful scene.

It felt as though none of life’s troubles mattered anymore—as long as Ji Yu and their baby stayed by his side, it would be enough.

"Probably overwhelmed by happiness," he replied.

The others were perceptive enough to grasp the situation. Noticing Gu Qixiao’s demeanor, they understood the couple likely needed some alone time.

Thus, they sympathetically left with the baby.

Gu Qixiao stood there watching Ji Yu in a daze, which made Ji Yu start to feel a bit uneasy herself.

"Gu Qixiao, what’s wrong with you?"

"Nothing. I just missed you too much." He simply felt heartache for everything Ji Yu had endured.

Ji Yu found his reaction fairly normal. "That little rascal didn’t even cause me that much trouble. It’s really nothing, and I’m fine, aren’t I?"

She was in a rather good mood now.

With the baby born, she could indeed enjoy a bit more freedom.

Ji Yu felt truly helpless about Gu Qixiao’s worry, but she also understood it stemmed from his love for her.

"Gu Qixiao, this whole ordeal has brought a lot of things to mind. Although I couldn’t express them back then, I’m quite certain that I’ve probably loved you deeply all along."

If she didn’t love him, how could she care so much about his feelings?

The two of them quietly relished each other’s presence in the room. For Gu Qixiao, this moment meant the world.

"Yu, I meant what I said before about marriage. I know you probably haven’t adjusted to a life with me yet, so I’ll wait until you’re ready or until you truly fall in love with me to marry you."

Even if they didn’t marry, he would always be good to her.

But Ji Yu had already made up her mind about this matter long ago. "Gu Qixiao, how do you know I don’t want to marry you?"

Love often feels irrational.

The things Xia Chuanhe had tried so hard to aplish were effortlessly achieved with Gu Qixiao.

Not because Gu Qixiao had spent an enormous amount of effort, but because Ji Yu truly loved him.

"Really?" Gu Qixiao asked, almost doubting the truth of his ears, wondering if hisck of sleep had caused him to hallucinate.

"Of course it’s true. I care about your feelings, and I’m very aware of how much you mean to me. Loving you isn’t a mistake—it’s the truest thing." Ji Yu had already decided on him and would never waver.

Isn’t that how love works?

Gu Qixiao looked at Ji Yu, ovee with emotion. It had been a long time since he had felt anything like this, so when Ji Yu agreed, he couldn’t contain his tion.

"Yu, I honestly don’t know what to say right now. All I know is that I’ll definitely treat you well—you’ve said it now, and there’s no taking it back."

He was remarkably steadfast about this.

As long as Ji Yu was willing to stay by his side, that was all that mattered.

Ji Yu smiled brightly, "What I’ve said, I absolutely mean. But we shouldn’t rush this too much right now."

After all, it was only appropriate to inform their families first.

In reality, if Ji Yu was willing, no one would oppose their marriage.

Mr. Gu was already enamored with the newborn baby.

"This child is truly beautiful."

"Of course—he looks exactly like Yu and Gu," Mr. Ji agreed, clearly fond of the baby and secretly wanting his son to hurry up and have one too.
