The little crybaby in the group, the young master is a softie

Qiuge nodded slightly, swallowed the last bite of banana, then stood up, bowed slightly to her, turned around and was about to leave.

"Wait a minute," Shen Ran called her and took out a bag of biscuits from the bedside table. "Take this and eat it when you're hungry."

Qiu Ge took the biscuit, held it in his arms, bowed to Shen Ran again, then turned and walked out of the ward.

Chen Yifan watched her figure disappear at the end of the corridor before he breathed a sigh of relief. He sat down on the bed, picked up the millet and pumpkin porridge he had bought for Shen Ran, opened the lid and handed it to her: "Drink it while it's hot, it will get cold soon."

"You were too harsh on Qiu Gu just now," Shen Ran muttered as he drank his porridge, "Don't yell at her again in the future."

"You're just too soft-hearted," Chen Yifan shook his head helplessly. "This devilish girl is no ordinary girl. She's very skilled. I've fought her before, but I never got the upper hand. Don't let your guard down just because you think she's pitiful. If she has other motives, you'll regret it too late."

"What could be her purpose?" Shen Ran put down the bowl of porridge. "If she had a purpose, she would have attacked me long ago. Why would she wait until now? Besides, she saved me before, so she doesn't look like a bad person at all. Oh, right, Qiu Ge just told me that she's been in the hospital for the past two days because she's been waiting for someone."

"Waiting for someone?" Chen Yifan frowned. "Waiting for whom?"

"She didn't say anything," Shen Ran shook his head. "When I asked her, she just pointed to the pediatric ward upstairs, as if she was waiting for someone there."

Chen Yifan frowned. Pediatric ward? Was this girl waiting for a patient? Or did she know someone in the pediatric ward?

"Don't think too much," Shen Ran patted his hand, "Maybe she's just waiting for a friend or relative. If you're really worried, ask your brother to keep an eye on the pediatric ward and see who she's waiting for."

"Yeah," Chen Yifan nodded, took out his phone and sent a message to his brothers, asking them to keep an eye on the pediatric ward. "I've asked my brothers to check it out. If there's any news, they'll tell me immediately."

Shen Ran smiled and leaned on his shoulder: "You are just too nervous. Actually, Qiuge is quite good, but she is a little quiet and has a cold temper. When the baby is born, I will let her be the baby's godsister. What do you think?"

"Forget it!" Chen Yifan quickly shook his head. "Let her be our godsister? I'm afraid she'll teach our son bad things! Besides, this girl is so elusive, she might disappear any day. How can she be our godsister?"

"You're just prejudiced against her," Shen Ran poked his arm. "I don't care. I think she's a good person. I want to be her friend from now on."

-

Chen Yifan squatted by the flower bed downstairs in the pediatric ward, an unlit cigarette in his hand, his eyes never leaving the corridor exit. This was already the third day he'd been keeping an eye on Qiu Gu. Ever since he'd learned she was a frequent visitor to the pediatric department, he'd spent two hours a day watching her, fearing she'd stir up trouble again.

"Brother Chen, are you cold? I brought you a coat." An Nuo ran over and put the coat on him. "This girl is really weird. She comes to the pediatric department three times every day without fail. She neither enters the ward nor talks to anyone. She's like a ghost."

"Bullshit, something must have happened to her." Chen Yifan's eyes were fixed on the exit, "Here she comes! You retreat first, don't let her see you." He pushed An Nuo and shrank behind the tree.

He watched Qiu Ge walk to the bench opposite the pediatric building and sit down, then take out a wrinkled notebook and a pencil from his pocket and draw something on the notebook with his head down.

Chen Yifan crouched down and walked around behind the tree, moving slowly towards the bench in the shadow of the branches. He glanced over Qiu Gu's shoulder and glanced at the wrinkled notebook.

First, I saw the shallow marks made by the pencil on the paper, and then the outline of a round little head gradually became clear.

The drawing on the notebook was of a little baby girl with a face as round as a glutinous rice dumpling, fine bangs on her forehead, and two crooked braids on top of her head, painted lightly black with a pencil.

The most eye-catching thing is the little mouth, which is wide open, with no teeth drawn, revealing a heartless smile, and even the eyes are curved into crescents.

Chen Yifan's gaze paused on the drawing paper, then glanced at the prisoner beside him. With her eyes downcast, her profile bore a striking resemblance to the little girl in the painting, especially the slightly upturned curve at the corners of her eyes, practically a replica of her.

That day, Shen Ran had just finished lunch when she suddenly covered her stomach and cried out in pain. Chen Yifan quickly called the nurse and pushed her into the delivery room.

"Wife, don't be afraid, I'm waiting for you outside!" Chen Yifan grabbed the door of the delivery room and shouted loudly, "If you feel any pain, just call my name, I'll be with you!"

"Got it. Don't make a fuss outside," Shen Ran said, smiling and teasing him before being pushed into the delivery room. "The baby will be born soon. Don't act like a fool."

The door of the delivery room was closed. Chen Yifan was running around anxiously outside, his hands clasped together, muttering, "God bless, Shen Ran and the child must be safe. If anything happens, let me take care of it!"

Shen Ran's father looked at him and said with a smile, "Don't be too nervous. The doctor said that Ranran is in good health and the birth will go smoothly."

After an unknown amount of time, a loud baby cry was heard in the delivery room. Chen Yifan immediately rushed over, clinging to the door and shouting, "Doctor! How is my wife? How is the baby?"

The doctor opened the door and said with a smile, "Congratulations, it's a boy, both mother and child are safe!"

Chen Yifan jumped up with excitement, tears almost streaming down his face. He followed the doctor into the delivery room and saw Shen Ran lying weakly on the bed. He quickly went over and kissed her on the forehead, his voice trembling: "Wife, you've worked so hard!"

……

The day after Chen Zeyu was born, the sun in the ward was exceptionally bright. Chen Yifan, wearing a baggy black sweatshirt, was clumsily swaddling him.

The little guy kicked around like a fish out of water. He worked hard for a long time, but the swaddling clothes were still crooked. He was so angry that he cursed under his breath: "Fuck, you little bastard, how come you are more difficult to deal with than me when I was fighting for territory!"

Shen Ran leaned against the headboard, laughing until tears came out: "Be gentle, don't strangle our son. Who was it that patted his chest and said that he could take care of the child?"

"I'm not well-versed!" Chen Yifan adjusted the swaddling clothes unconvinced. "Give me a few days of practice, and I'll definitely be more professional than a confinement nanny. Look, isn't it better now?"

Just as he finished wrapping the baby, Chen Zeyu suddenly burst into tears, his face red as a tomato. Chen Yifan panicked, hurriedly picked up the child, and patted his back gently:

"Oh, my little ancestor, don't cry, don't cry, did daddy hurt you? Or are you hungry?"

"He must be hungry," Shen Ran shook his head helplessly, "Bring him here, I'll feed him."

Chen Yifan quickly carried him to Shen Ran's side. The ward instantly fell silent. Chen Yifan sat nearby, watching this scene, his lips curled up unconsciously.

He had lived on the streets, fought, and seized territory in his life, but he never thought that there would be a day when he would be able to live a stable life with his wife and son.

"Click~!"

At this moment, the door of the ward was gently pushed open a crack, and Qiu Ge slowly walked in. She stopped two meters away from the bed and looked at Xiao Yu, her calm eyes flashing with curiosity, like a child seeing a new toy.

"You're here to see Xiaoyu, right?" Shen Ran said with a smile, "Come and take a look. Isn't he cute?"

Qiu Gu nodded, walked closer and slowly bent down, his eyes only half a meter away from him, looking at his little face carefully.

Chen Zeyu seemed to sense something, stopped breastfeeding, opened his eyes to look at her, then closed his eyes and continued breastfeeding.

Qiu Ge raised his head and looked at Shen Ran, "Can I... hug him?"

Shen Ran nodded immediately, his eyes full of tenderness: "Of course, you have to be careful, he just had a full meal and his body is weak."

She nodded and stretched out her hand, first gently supporting the back of Chen Zeyu's head, and then carefully wrapped her other hand around his waist, holding the little guy in her arms, with her arms slightly bent to let him lean more steadily.

Chen Zeyu rubbed his little head into her arms, smacking his lips unconsciously, looking very silly.

Qiu Ge looked down at him, a faint smile gradually spreading across his eyes. The curve of his mouth was more obvious than before, and even the coldness at the corners of his eyes faded a lot.

"You're holding him pretty steady." Shen Ran watched the scene and said with a smile, "He was about to cry just now, but he's been so well behaved in your arms."
