In This Life, I Will Extremely Pamper My Short-Lived Husband-Chapter 180: Tuantuan is Safe and Sound

But now that Xu Jinzhi had changed her mind, she was determined to make Zhao Qinghe remember her well and remember the lesson.

She would let him know what the consequences of offending her would be.

Time flew, and half a month had passed. Xu Jinzhi’s health could be said to have recovered very well.

Tuantuan was still in the incubator, but visible improvements were evident, and this greatly relieved Xu Jinzhi.

Xie Yanchuan’s paternity leave had also ended, and Xu Jinzhi persuaded him to go back to school for his classes.

Xie Yanchuan didn’t agree immediately as he was still uneasy about leaving Xu Jinzhi and Tuantuan, "I’ll ask the dean for an extension of my leave; he will agree."

"I have recovered well now, and Tuantuan is getting better every day, you don’t need to be here all the time."

"Besides, you don’t have many classes, and you can come over after they end."

At the onset of the incident, because Tuantuan’s condition was poor, there were indeed a couple days when Xu Jinzhi felt completely out of her depth, on the verge of collapse.

Luckily, she quickly managed to adjust her mindset. Now, her health had mostly recovered, and Tuantuan was on the mend.

Xie Yanchuan wouldn’t be at the hospital to watch over Tuantuan every moment, so Xu Jinzhi should focus on her work when she needed to.

As time passed, they would eventually have to return to their normal lives.

Xie Yanchuan was still hesitant; this incident truly terrified him.

Xu Jinzhi didn’t push Xie Yanchuan but gave him time to think it over.

It wasn’t until Sunday night that Xie Yanchuan told Xu Jinzhi he would resume his classes at school the next day.

No sooner had he finished speaking than Xie Yanchuan earnestly promised Xu Jinzhi, "I’ll come right over after my classes."

He seemed to worry that in his absence, Xu Jinzhi would start having anxious thoughts.

Xu Jinzhi couldn’t help but smile, "Don’t worry, I won’t overthink things. The hospital has professional medical staff to take care of us, and I have no particular need for you to be with me all the time."

Xu Jinzhi’s understanding nature had Xie Yanchuan unsure whether to feel moved or touched.

In any case, he had arranged that before Xu Jinzhi and Tuantuan were discharged, he would only go to the lab after attending his classes.

As the days went by, Zhou Linsen’s verdict had been delivered—he was sentenced to six years for attempted murder, but Zhao Qinghe had managed to slip through.

Of course, Xu Zhen would not let Zhao Qinghe off the hook so easily. Settling the score was only a matter of time.

Xu Jinzhi was aware of these matters, but her focus was now more on Tuantuan.

Fortunately for Tuantuan, despite the dangers encountered, she was now completely out of life-threatening danger. freēwēbηovel.c૦m

After reaching the required weight, the doctor finally allowed her to leave the incubator.

That day was a Friday. Xie Yanchuan had a morning class but had delayed leaving because the doctor said Tuantuan could be taken out of the incubator.

Xie Yanchuan had not yet held Tuantuan since her birth and naturally would not miss this important moment.

It wasn’t just the couple present; Xu Zhen, Song You, He Shuying, and Old Master Xie were all there.

As the nurse lifted Tuantuan from the incubator and slowly approached Xu Jinzhi, she said, "Tuantuan’s mom can hold Tuantuan now."

Xu Jinzhi stretched out her hand, and even though she knew her current position was correct, she still felt weak in the arms, worried that she wouldn’t be able to hold the baby securely, her whole demeanor somewhat flustered.

The nurse reminded, "Tuantuan’s mom, don’t be nervous."

"Okay!" Xu Jinzhi nodded repeatedly.

However, she had overestimated herself; when the nurse placed Tuantuan in Xu Jinzhi’s arms, her hands still trembled slightly.

Fortunately, Xie Yanchuan was guarding her the whole time, and he would never allow Tuantuan to be in any danger.

Xu Jinzhi looked at the little one sleeping with closed eyes in her arms and couldn’t help her eyes reddening.

Just a few more days until a full month, and she finally got to hold her Tuantuan!

"Xie Yanchuan!" Xu Jinzhi couldn’t help but look up at the man beside her.

Xie Yanchuan’s eyes were also somewhat red but controlled better than Xu Jinzhi’s. He wrapped one arm around Xu Jinzhi and smiled tenderly at her, saying, "Tuantuan is safe now, you should be happier."

"Mm!" Xu Jinzhi nodded vigorously.

"Let me look, let me look!" Xu Zhen said in a hurried tone from behind.

So, everyone made a little room for Xu Zhen to come over and see her grandchild. When Xu Zhen saw Tuantuan in Xu Jinzhi’s arms, she couldn’t control her emotions either and quickly turned her head away.

In fact, everyone’s emotions were not calm at all, because it was so difficult for Tuantuan to have come through.

The group surrounded Tuantuan for a good while, then Xu Jin led Xu Jinzhi and Tuantuan back to their hospital room.

Xie Yanchuan didn’t want to leave either, but time was almost up. He whispered to Xu Jinzhi, "I’m heading to school now. I’ll come back right after class."

"Okay." Xu Jinzhi nodded, somewhat perfunctorily, without even looking at Xie Yanchuan.

Xie Yanchuan added, "Call me right away if anything happens."

"Okay."

Xu Jinzhi agreed again but still didn’t look at Xie Yanchuan, leaving him no choice but to depart first.

However, as Xie Yanchuan was preparing to leave, Xu Jinzhi suddenly grabbed his arm.

"What’s wrong?" Xie Yanchuan asked.

Xu Jinzhi leaned in and quickly kissed Xie Yanchuan’s lips, then whispered, "Tuantuan and I will be waiting for you here."

The emotional intensity of holding Tuantuan had reddened Xu Jinzhi’s eyes, but the constant smile on her lips proved that she was happy at that moment.

The elders were all present, but they were focused on Tuantuan, so they didn’t notice Xu Jinzhi’s recent action. Xie Yanchuan, though, felt a bit embarrassed.

Aside from that slight embarrassment, something else stirred in Xie Yanchuan as he looked at Xu Jinzhi—it was indescribable.

It seemed like joy.

Tuantuan had just come out of the incubator today, so everyone was paying attention to him, and he was very happy too.

Just now, when he spoke, Xu Jinzhi didn’t pay attention to him, and it didn’t bother him at all—after all, she had finally seen Tuantuan.

But after Xu Jinzhi held his arm and kissed him, saying those words, joy suddenly surged in Xie Yanchuan’s heart.

In fact, Xie Yanchuan belatedly realized that he was happy because Xu Jinzhi hadn’t ignored him.

In the Xie Family, he had never been the one who received much attention; on the contrary, he was often the one who was overlooked.
