Chapter 447: Chapter 447; Are you attached to that baby?
"Geez! Here is the kid Missus saved, they didn’t attach those machines as they didn’t need to, they put him here for further observation to make sure the baby was healthy and could be discharged!" Huo Zheng walked over and got closer to the tiny bed gazing at the baby.
The baby wasn’t asleep, his eyes were wide open as he cutely smacked his lips seemingly feeling hungry.. it was also tossing her legs and hands all over the place looking energetic.
Looking at him, Huo Shen could feel that aura and immediately realized it could be Su Wei Wei’s doing and saved the kid, it might have died if she didn’t have any magical powers to use.
The little angel looked at him and he instinctively found himself smiling at the baby... He looked calmer and cute from his hazel eyes, too bad, the mother wouldn’t be alive to watch after him. It was so sad that the baby was orphaned so soon after being born. Imagine his date of birth would also be his mother’s death anniversary, how cruel was that for such a little baby?
Huo Shen pitied him thinking how his future life will be! He could only hope that the grandparents could change his date of birth and then it wasn’t gonna be easy to look at the baby who caused their daughter’s death.
"Do you want to hold him?" The nurse walked in to see Huo Shen gazing at the little baby warmly and Huo Zheng also noticed he was a bit different to this baby in particular.
They all knew one thing Huo Shen hated the most was a child, he didn’t even want to see them, now, here they were, maybe one day, he would change his opinion towards kids.
"Sure..." He actually has never held a baby since birth! This was his first time attempting to. He didn’t know why, but he just wanted to hold him and understand what went through her mind.
"Okay..." The nurse walked over to the other side and picked the baby up, they had wrapped him in a clean baby blanket but since he was kicking his legs and hands, the blanket had fallen to the sides, she wrapped it back carefully and also, he was wearing baby clothes from the inside.
After picking him up she passed the baby over to him, he was so light and tiny. If they ever had a baby at one time, the baby would be just like that, the only difference could be the eyes and the hair. Their kid might end up inheriting Su Wei Wei’s unique genes, imagine having a baby with silver-white hair and those purple or emerald-green eyes.
What if it was a baby girl?would truly be a beauty to behold and, she will be a fairy just like her mother.
How many flies would he have to chase away because of their beauty? It would be troublesome! He was slightly swayed into thinking of having a baby but thought about it carefully, it wasn’t a one-time job bringing up kids, it’s a forever responsibility even if they got married and formed another family of their own. They had to be parents to them still and then, they would be grandparents and would still babysit their babies.
This was a lifetime of work with no ending, he just wanted to have a life with her only and no kids involved!
Huo Zheng strolled over and gazed at the baby held in Huo Shen’s arms who was calm and moving his hands swaying them around formlessly, with his mouth being smacked from time to time maybe due to hunger.
With the way Huo Shen was gently gazing at the baby, Huo Zheng felt like he was already making the first step into acceptance, in no time, maybe Huo Shen would be able to accept the idea of having kids once they were totally settled.
"What do you think?" Huo Zheng gently flicked the baby’s chubby cheeks gazing at those innocent eyes. The baby was healthy and cute, those arms were raised and being swung around.
"Every baby deserves a loving family, and mostly, a happy childhood, but if you aren’t prepared to, it’s like repeating the mistakes of what your parents did and went through! Actually, it’s not that I don’t want kids, let’s say, I’m not ready and I may never be a good father, I also have my own past traumas, and I can’t let half of myself live that kind of life once again..." He was honest with his feelings, and this is one thing he was certain about.
He wasn’t ready to be a father and the responsibilities that come with it.
"Ooohh..." Huo Zheng took over and held the baby in his arms. It wasn’t his first baby to hold one, he had held many kids while on the mission.
Huo Shen gazed at the other kids who were supported by those NICU machines, they looked calm and quiet. Kids are innocent and cute until they are brought up by the wrong parents and instilled wrong morals.
"You can tell them to come over and see the baby...." Huo Zheng instructed the nurse, she nodded her head and went over to the other private room and notified the boys.
They left the nurse to watch over their mother while they went over to see the little baby that belonged to their sister. That would be the only gift and remembrance she left behind to them.
They got over to the nursery room after dressing up as it’s supposed to be, Huo Zheng passed the baby over to the man, who was the deceased student’s father.
"My wife went to great lengths to save that baby, make sure he is well taken care of, and if not, he will be taken over to the Charity home..." With that, Huo Shen strode out of the nursery room with Huo Zheng leaving the family to have a moment with the baby while the nurse stood at the side watching.
"Are you attached to that baby?" Huo Zheng was surprised when he heard him warning them about how to treat the baby. He wasn’t bothered by those other kids inside the NICU, apart from this one.
"Attached? He isn’t my kid you know! But don’t you think every kid deserves better? They never make requests to get born, no matter how huge the mistake is, those students are adults with parents who had the experienced knowledge to guide their kids through their teenagehood but no, they stood aside and saw the outcome. How could they not know their daughter was nine months pregnant if they were present parents? And then, do you know how much that uniform cost me while buying for her? And do you know how much those Oxford school shoes I bought for her cost? They were all stained which she would never wear again! Don’t you think it’s a great loss on my side? I would have to replace another pair of school uniforms!" Huo Shen could rent endlessly when it came to spending money, but when it came to buying for her, he would always choose the best no matter what the cost was!
"Tsk! As if you are short of money!" Huo Zheng clicked his lips in annoyance recalling how he had advised him to buy just ordinary uniforms but decided to customise for her.
"I know, but do you know the money I would use to replace the spoilt uniform could have done for her Charity home for several days? It could have boosted her you know!" They talked while walking through the fields out of the gate over to the other side of the administration.
He was headed over to the private room before going to the boardroom to have a meeting.
"But it saved a life! Anyway, I don’t see the difference there... Stop nagging unless you want your little wife to hear about it." Huo Zheng cautioned him and he went silent, when it came to this kind of topic, he would totally avoid it and couldn’t wish to start an argument with her. He hated having any disagreement with her.
The bell for lunchtime rang, it was 12:45 but the students were directed over to the parading area where all the Senior....
