Chapter 810 - 429: The Birth of Li Weiyi (3)

"Alright, alright."

Li Peifeng didn’t have time to say much, he quickly got up, dressed, and walked out of the room, because Huang Tianxuan, unable to catch them, had issued a final ultimatum in the living room.

"Li Peifeng, your son is in my hands, you bastard, get out here immediately! What kind of person are you? You leave the child to hang out with them... you bastard, come out!"

"Coming, coming!"

Seeing Li Peifeng hurriedly leave, Wu Wenyue, Xu and Manning all laughed.

"What kind of ’holding the emperor to command the vassals’ is this?"

"With a child, comes a weakness, haven’t you noticed? He’s been too soft lately."

Xu Manning was silent for two seconds, then suddenly said, "Why don’t we also have a child? Have two, a pair of twins, to surpass them!"

Wu Wenyue looked unimpressed: "You just got a marriage certificate without much benefit, the ceremony hasn’t even been held. I’m not having a kid... You better not be rash, who knows what will happen in the future."

Xu Manning frowned and said, "Do you think something will go wrong with his marriage to Tianxuan?"

"It’s bound to go wrong!"

...

That evening, Li Peifeng brought Huang Zhiyi back next door, relieving Huang Tianxuan from the trouble of getting up at night to take care of the child, and she didn’t continue to get angry.

And Zhao Qingge, as he had anticipated, not only showed no resistance towards the baby, she even held it for a while before resting, under the guise of ’practice’, much like Wu and Xu, unable to resist the charm of a human offspring.

Maybe it’s for the sake of the child, or maybe because Huang Tianxuan resumed work and studies, Old Zhao rarely saw her personally, the family disputes and conflicts reduced significantly, Zhao Qingge’s temper gradually became gentle, and she self-taught gardening, filling the front and back gardens with flowers and plants, and raised a lot of ornamental fish in the pond out front.

Thanks to all these, Li Peifeng’s life got much easier, although he still juggled between caring for pregnant women and part-time dad duties, which remained trivial and bothersome, yet Li Peifeng was always good at finding the beauty in life. Energized and never feeling tired, life didn’t seem dull to him; he even found enjoyment in it, fostering a sense of happiness albeit an illusion.

Because when summer came, Li Peifeng often took advantage of the girls’ leisure weekends, assembling them to organize a barbecue party, held in either the front garden of the villa or the lawn out back.

Beside Lotus Pond, lying on soft grass, the four girls gathered to eat and drink, chat about everything or splash water and play games with the babies. As the barbecue master, once Li Peifeng had eaten to his fill, he’d sing a song, making the atmosphere beyond words, as if it were a dream for him.

The entire spring until summer was a season rich in life’s splendor.

With a long night and gentle rain, bright sun, and clear moon, Li Peifeng was occupied with joy, seeing the world brimming with the passion of life, filled with indomitable desire in the wind and dreams.

Even if occasionally, when everyone drank too much and emotions ran high, conversations would explode into arguments, leading to unpleasant scenes, but those were just small interludes.

Like overturning tables, kicking stools, and smashing cups, all just games at the gatherings.

Even if the conflict directly involved Li Peifeng, he wouldn’t mind, instead, he’d smile warmly, pick up an instrument, and sing another tune.

"I wish this summer would never end, wish they would never leave, let the music loop infinitely forever, that’s all I ask for, I swear I seek nothing else."

But evidently, this was the most unrealistic demand in the world; time flies without any pause, the vibrant spring and summer quietly vanished from sight.

When the cicada’s song ceased to echo, when the first leaf in the Capital dangled precariously, the world of every being couldn’t say goodbye in time, but hurriedly greeted September, symbolizing bleakness and harvest.

At the same time, Li Peifeng welcomed his second child.

...

"Doctor! How is she doing?"

Outside a VIP maternity ward in the Capital First Maternity and Child Hospital, both Zhao and Li families gathered, waiting for the arrival of the newborn. The next moment, when the midwife came out of the room, they immediately surrounded her.

"She’s dilated two fingers’ width, and the baby is estimated to be born around three in the afternoon, but now the mother’s body is already halfway exhausted, so I recommend using pain-free delivery. However, she disagrees, and Xiaoli prioritizes his wife’s opinion..."

The midwife paused, looking at Zhao Haiqi and Li Xin: "Actually, the pain-free technology is very mature now, with no side effects on mother and child. After administering anesthesia, it can significantly reduce the pain of natural childbirth, making the delivery smoother. So I think the mother’s parents should convince her, there’s no need for her to endure. Of course, natural delivery is also fine, it’s just a suggestion."

Zhao Haiqi uttered ’ah’ and hesitated, while Li Xin uttered ’I’ll persuade her,’ then decisively opened the door and entered the room.

Lying on the bed, Zhao Qingge looked pale, her forehead covered in fine sweat, her eyes half-closed, clearly suffering.

Originally, after ’witnessing’ Huang Tianxuan’s childbirth process, Zhao Qingge was somewhat less scared of the unknown.

But when it came to her own delivery day, Zhao Duoduo’s emotions felt like a hermit crab — constantly moving homes could not be stabilized!

The pain, it was too painful.

How did Huang Tianxuan manage to endure it at that time?

Huang Tianxuan: "With the power of my iron will, if you can’t hold on, then get the pain-free."

Zhao Qingge: "I won’t!"

Sitting by the bed holding Old Zhao’s hand, Li Peifeng even thought of cutting the connection, the two were still squabbling at this juncture, creating more chaos. Next moment, seeing Li Xin enter the room, he immediately stood up to greet: "Mom, is it about the pain-free? Perfect, you persuade her, she doesn’t listen to me."
