One sentence lifted the weight off Lu Nanchen's heart.
"The mother is in good condition now and will be transferred to the general ward soon. After a few months of recovery and observation, she can be discharged."
"Congratulations." The nurse said, extending her hand to shake with Lu Nanchen.
In the delivery room behind them, the loud cries of the baby could still be heard.
Lu Nanchen: ...
Then the nurse and doctor quickly sent Yu Ting and the baby back to their ward.
Most of the time, Lu Nanchen stayed beside Yu Ting, constantly asking about her condition and repeatedly confirming her wellness, if she felt uncomfortable anywhere or anything.
Only after making sure his wife was okay, did Lu Nanchen take a few more glances at his son. The baby cried for a few minutes just after he was born. After being comforted by the nurse, he didn't cry again. He was lying quietly in the incubator next to Yu Ting with wrinkled, red skin, his eyes closed, it was hard to tell how big he was.
