Chapter 2294 - 2197: Fool
Huo Sining suddenly remembered she was in the hospital. Before she lost consciousness, she had clearly been in the delivery room for six to seven hours.
"Where is the child?!" she asked urgently.
Su Qingqing smiled: "Don’t worry, the child is fine. She was just a little premature, so she’s in the incubator to prevent any issues. The doctor said everything is normal, and she can be discharged in a week."
Huo Sining finally nodded with relief.
At that moment, the doctor who got the signal hurriedly rushed in. Seeing Huo Sining awake, he was also overjoyed: "Miss Huo is awake, is there any discomfort anywhere in your body?"
Huo Sining shook her head. The doctor then took an instrument to perform some tests on her. After confirming the data was normal, he nodded:
"There’s no problem now, but Miss Huo, you slept for three days. If you want to eat, try to consume easily digestible liquid foods in the next two days and avoid high-protein foods."
After a few reminders, the doctor left, and Su Qingqing then smiled and said: "You haven’t seen your precious daughter yet, right? I’ll have the nurse bring the child to you to see."
Huo Sining had no objections; she indeed wanted to see the little girl she hadn’t met yet in the past three days. However, thinking of her precious egg that had now disappeared, her mood became somewhat heavy.
Soon, the nurse did bring the child over. Although she was a premature baby, the little girl wasn’t smaller than a normal infant. However, since she was just born, her skin was still red and wrinkled, looking like a little monkey.
But the nurse repeatedly praised: "She’s been very good in the incubator these past days, doesn’t cry or fuss, sleeps after eating and eats after waking up. She’ll surely be easy to care for in the future."
Huo Sining smiled and didn’t speak. She had already witnessed the troublesome antics of the little girl’s twin brother and was fully prepared that this one might be a match for that precious egg.
Now the child was brought over, naturally she couldn’t let the child drink formula milk. Huo Sining also knew that colostrum has high nutrition and is very helpful in enhancing the child’s immune system. Even though she just woke from a coma, she still tried to breastfeed the child.
With the nurse there, the child’s first breastfeeding went very smoothly. Unfortunately, Huo Sining was hungry from days of fasting, so her milk was insufficient. The child hardly tasted any before the milk ran out.
"Mom needs to eat more to supplement nutrition. Best to drink some milk-producing soup; otherwise, if breast milk is not enough, formula will have to make up for it."
The nurse also understood Huo Sining’s situation and laughed as she offered a few reminders, and then took the child back to the incubator.
This tiny bundle had come from her own belly, making Huo Sining quite reluctant. But she knew the child was weak and could only stay in the incubator, so she could only watch with teary eyes as the child was taken away.
Over there, Su Qingqing had already gone out when Huo Sining was breastfeeding the child, evidently to report the situation to the Gu Family and the Huang Family.
Upon hearing that Huo Sining had awakened, Mrs. Gu was instantly delighted, hastily instructed the maid to pack the nourishing soup in a thermos, and hurriedly called for Madam Gu to rush to the hospital.
Meanwhile, Huo Sining also inquired about the situation. She learned that on the day of her delivery, not only the Gu Family, but Zhou Shitao was waiting outside the delivery room, even Chief Lu and Qin Lianshan personally called to ask about her status, which made Huo Sining feel quite apologetic. She quickly asked Su Qingqing to bring her phone, wanting to make a call to Chief Lu and those old folks including Zhou Shitao.
After making a few calls, Huo Sining instinctively dialed Gu Xu’s number, but as she anticipated, the call couldn’t go through.
Scenes from her dream began to float in Huo Sining’s mind, bit by bit, and she gradually pieced together the cause and effect.
Originally, in her past life, she and Gu Xu had been connected long ago, but because the Taoist had manipulated things to seal her spiritual intelligence, she no longer remembered Gu Xu, or rather, no longer remembered Yun Xuzi. Eventually, she died at the hands of Liang Jingyi, and Gu Xu felt extremely guilty, grieving deeply, so he carried out a frenzied revenge against Liang Jingyi and Zhao Mingcheng.
After avenging her, Gu Xu went to the Buzhou Mountain Taoist Temple to beg his senior brother Yunzhouzi, unexpectedly discovering the truth and obtaining the magic artifact left by his master before he died.
It was precisely that magic artifact that allowed her to be reborn and returned to the past. Plus, because the seal of the Jade Pendant was lifted, in this life, she could smoothly meet, get to know, and fall in love with Gu Xu.
So that’s it, when she unexpectedly reincarnated, she thought it was a chance given by heaven. Unexpectedly, everything was because of Gu Xu.
Clearly in her past life, she died because of Gu Xu, having her heart ripped out, which she should blame. However, thinking about what Yunzhouzi said—that Gu Xu, for her, abandoned his lifetime’s cultivation, disregarded his Immortal Bone and divine roots, willing to reincarnate for decades just to be with her—made a bittersweet yet sweet feeling surge up in Huo Sining’s heart, unstoppable.
Turns out, the little Taoist who released her into the sea in the dream was Gu Xu.
No wonder she dreamt of those scenes over and over; those were likely the last remnants of memories left on the Jiao Pearl.
Having returned once more, Gu Xu just became Gu Xu, and the name Yun Xuzi vanished when the magic artifact propelled them both back in time, leaving no trace from then on.
Huo Sining’s eyes were tearful; if not for her current physical inconvenience, she would eagerly rush to reunite with that fool.
Before knowing this, Huo Sining’s love for Gu Xu was reserved; however, having gone through the dream of the past and understanding all the causes and effects, her love for Gu Xu now was truly without reservation.
She knew this man clung for decades, for her, having nothing, truly loved her deeply. With such a husband, what more could Huo Sining ask for?
Just then, Huo Sining’s phone suddenly buzzed, and an unread email popped up from her phone.
Huo Sining paused, returned to her senses, opened the email, and saw five words.
Miaomiao is with me.
The email came from a scrambled account, but Huo Sining knew the people aware of the existence of that precious egg and familiar with the little one’s name were only Gu Xu and Yue Shuwen. However, Yue Shuwen, Zhong Xiaoyao, these people wouldn’t resort to emailing her in such a troublesome manner, so the person sending the email could only possibly be Gu Xu.
