Xu Guimin frowned, wanting to continue, but Xu Xiuhe''s attitude was firm, his expression serious as if there was no room for negotiation.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"What I wanted to say, I''ve said to you before. You''ve also seen it, Xu Corporation isn''t what it used to be. You should be well aware of the losses Yu Corporation incurred during the time when Xu Zhengyang was managing thepany. Now more than half of the Xu Group''s shares are in my hands, you..."<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Xu Xiuhe didn''t continue, his eyes staring directly at Xu Guimin. Xu Guimin wasn''t a fool, he understood what Xu Xiuhe was implying.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Is there really no room for discussion?" Xu Guimin asked.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"None."<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Xu Xiuhe replied emotionless.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
The man, aged over fifty, picked up the pen in his hand, and shakily wrote down Xu Guimin''s three characters. Xu Xiuhe handed over the ink pad, and Xu Guimin stamped his handprint.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Xu Xiuhe took the document, turned around, and left. The rest was up to Liu Bo.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
On New Year''s Eve, in Yun Manor, the decor was just as it had been the previous year. Festive reds dominated, full of New Year''s joy.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0

Fang Yue served Shen Yin soup for her. Although it was a New Year''s Eve dinner, most of the dishes on the table were suitable for a pregnant woman.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"I know, Mom."<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Shen Yin picked up the soup spoon and started to drink.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"You should get some rest early tonight. Recovery is important."<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Fang Yue continued to remind her. This New Year''s Eve meal, which was originally supposed to be eaten close to midnight was prepared early because of Shen Yin''s condition. <span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"OK, I''ll listen to you, Mom."<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Just as Shen Yin finished speaking, something seemed to be wrong.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Yin Yin, what''s the matter?" Xu Xiuhe was filled with worry and was the first to notice that Shen Yin''s expression was off.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Just as he finished speaking, everyone else at the table looked their way.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Shen Yin nced at her belly and said in a weak voice, "I think... I might be about to give birth."<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"What? Isn''t your due date tomorrow?" Shen Lv put down his chopsticks.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Birthing is never precise. I was inbor for a long time when your sister was born. Shen Lv, start the car. Xiuhe, help Yin Yin. I''ll go and grab some things."<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Xu Yunzheng, taken aback, quickly rose and followed behind Shen Yin and Xu Xiuhe.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
In the car, the family of three sat in the back while Shen Lv drove. Seeing Shen Yin''s pained expression, he started the car without waiting for Fang Yue.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"You call Mom and tell her which hospital we''re headed to. I''ll call to have the hospital prepare."<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
The two made their respective calls. Shen Yin leaned her head against Xu Xiuhe''s shoulder, and Xu Yunzheng patted her hand.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Mommy won''t hurt."<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
At nine o''clock in the evening, the car sped along the road. The traffic was lighter than usual, and as they passed residential areas, every house was brightly lit.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"This little one, not obeying me, hasn''t given me a chance to celebrate the New Year properly," Shen Yin said with a pale face but a smile.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Do you still feel ufortable? We''ll be at the hospital soon," asked Xu Xiuhe.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"I''m fine."<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
When Fang Yue came downstairs, she saw that Shen Lv''s car had already left. She didn’t say much and made straight for the garage.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
She hadn’t entered when a car came out of the garage. Shen Tianzheng was sitting in the driver''s seat. Seeing Fang Yue standing at the side, he immediately got out of the car and opened the back door. He gently put the wrapped clothes and the newborn products from Fang Yue''s hands onto the backseat.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Can you handle it? It''s probably very cold at the hospital tonight," said Fang Yue, looking at Shen Tianzheng who was only wearing a sweater.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"I have a thick coat in the backseat."<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
On hearing his response, Fang Yue looked in the backseat and indeed, it was there.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Drive slower to Rong City Hospital. We''re not in a rush," Fang Yue reminded him earnestly, knowing that it had been a long time since Shen Lv had driven a car.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"No problem, stop being so careful. I''m not sick now," Shen Tianzheng retorted.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
While they were speaking, Shen Lv''s car arrived at the hospital. There were already people waiting at the entrance to help. Shen Yin was lifted onto a stretcher and taken directly to the delivery room.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"I''ll go in too. Yunzheng, will you wait out here for mom and dad?" said Xu Xiuhe, before entering. He was a little worried and left a message for Xu Yunzheng.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Okay."<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Xu Yunzheng knew he shouldn''t cause trouble at this moment. He was familiar with the scene and had experience. He had been here with his mother once before, waiting for Aunt Qi Ji, whoter gave birth to two babies.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Brother, please look after him," Xu Xiuhe said to Shen Lv.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Shen Lv nced at the delivery room, inserted one hand in his trouser pocket, and with the other hand gently patted Yunzheng''s head. "Don''t worry, I''ll take care of him."<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
After Xu Xiuhe entered, Xu Yunzheng ran to the door. Shen Lv sat restless on the chair outside. He felt somewhat guilty towards his sister.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Uncle, will brother and sister soon join this world to y with Yunzheng?” the little one asked.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Brother and sister?"<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Yes, just like Aunt Qi Ji. She stayed in this room and then had brother Le''an and sister Leyu."<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Kid, do you like brother or sister?"<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"I like both."<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Shen Lvughed; how was he supposed to exin that not everyone in this room ends up having twins? Besides, Shen Yin was bearing a little princess.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"How are things?" Fang Yue and Shen Tianzheng hurried over. They were carryingrge bags in their hands.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"They''ve just gone in not long ago, doctors and nurses have already entered," Shen Lv reported.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Have you found the patient room? Your father and I can put all this stuff away."<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"I''ll go. You and dad wait here. Yunzheng, do you want toe with me?"<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
The little boy sat on the chair, his short legs dangling in the air, swinging back and forth. He rested his elbows on his thighs, holding up his chin with his hands. On hearing Shen Lv''s words, he said, "No, I will wait here for my mom and dad."<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Shen Lv didn''t say much and went directly downstairs to arrange their things in the recently prepared hospital room.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Granny Fang,” the boy asked “when will my parents be out?"<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Just wait a little while, why don''t you have a nap, Yunzheng? By the time you wake up, you''ll be able to see your mom and sister.” <span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Fang Yueforted him, but she also had no clue when Shen Yin would be out. Everyone''s physical constitution varies in giving birth. Some women take as long as ten hours in the delivery room, others only two hours. But even in the quickest case, Shen Yin was likely to take quite a long time.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Yunzheng,e on, lean on Granny Fang." <span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Fang Yue draped a coat over Xu Yunzheng. Yunzheng obediently leaned towards Fang Yue''s arm. <span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Fang Yue adjusted her position, trying to make Yunzheng morefortable. <span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
On the other side of the room, Shen Tianzheng was sat upright on a chair. His posture betrayed signs of tension. <span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Yunzheng, why don''t you lean on Granny Fang and take a nap?"<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
