The moment the doctor carried the child out, it was still crying. The doctor quickly approached Ye Ling, recognizing him and naturally knowing that he was the child's father.
"Mother and child are safe!"
The doctor handed the child over to Ye Ling's arms. Despite having no strength left, Ye Ling miraculously cradled the child in his embrace.
Incredibly, the crying child suddenly ceased its tears and instead looked at Ye Ling, its eyes rolling about as they gazed at their biological father.
"Child, live well, and remember, you are Ye Ling's son, and you must become a true man!"
"All I can do is give my son his last name. My son shall be called Ye Yan!"
Ye Ling smiled faintly. Just then, a procession of people crying while carrying a stretcher covered with a white cloth proceeded down the nearby corridor, signifying someone's death.
"When I die, do not cry. I don't wish to come into this world with tears only to take them away again."
