A newborn baby's skin is tender, and because it is born prematurely, its body is no better than an ordinary baby's.
Gu Liu Yan carefully retracted her hand. However, just as she touched the five fingers that could not hold her hand tightly, her heart was viciously whipped. An intense pain accompanied with an unprecedented warmth flowed into her heart.
Even though her mother was in love and her body was in pain, she still persisted in maintaining her rationality. She could not be greedy, nor could she be willful.
When Duan Cheng Xuan saw her put her hand back under the blanket, her chaotic eyes couldn't discern what she was thinking in her heart. Only the two of them could still feel the heat from their hands that were pressed together through the thin cloth, and could still see Gu Danyan's hand that was tangled and twisting on his body.
"The child is too young. Let him go back and have a good rest." Gu Liuyan had not heard Duan Chengxuan speak for a long time, so she could only open her mouth first.
She still had poison in her body, so naturally, she couldn't give her child milk. However, the pain she had from feeding the child was reduced by a bit.
This child was born to be well-behaved. Aside from the cry that resonated through the sky when he landed on the ground, he would only gently sob or hold his mouth in grievance. Then, the wet nurse and Yun Xiao would come over together to cajole him.
However, as long as he stayed in Gu Danyan's room, the child would cause a ruckus.
As a result, only until now did Gu Liuyan dare to carefully touch him. She was afraid that if she woke him up, he would be in chaos again.
"You don't want to touch him more?" Duan Chengxuan held her hand and held it warm in his.
"I'd rather see him sooner." Gu Mingyan raised her hand, wanting to touch her itchy eyes, but Duan Chengxuan grabbed her hand. "The medicine has been applied, you're not allowed to touch it."
"Are you a doctor or am I a doctor?"
"Mother is a doctor." What Duan Chengxuan said calmly instead caused Gu Daiyan to feel even more depressed in her heart.
Mu Qing's whereabouts were currently unknown, and Su Yu Wan was even more so far away in the Sky Flame where it was difficult for her to confirm it. Her heart was always pricked with a thorn, causing her body to be in pain and tired over the past few days, yet she was unable to move.
It was as if the people around her were all scheming, causing her to feel a little disgusted with herself.
Duan Chengxuan had long since noticed that during these past few days, her mind had been troubled for a lot more. He also knew that Zhang Liangshan had once mentioned that a woman who gave birth to a child was even more sensitive than usual, not to mention that Gu Danyan was usually on guard, so this situation would only become more intense.
"If you don't like me by your side, I'll just …"
"Then I want Phantom to sleep with me. I haven't slept in his arms yet." Gu Liuyan grunted coldly, and as expected, one of his hands was tightly grasped by Duan Chengxuan, and he only lightly smiled. "You can sleep with me for a while."
"Then you still don't believe me?" Duan Cheng Xuan seized the opportunity to ask.
"These are two different things." Gu Liuyan harrumphed. She rubbed the tip of her nose and said, "I can't see right now. Please let Zhang Liangshan accompany me."
"Isn't it enough for me to stay with you?"
"Are you done yet!?" Gu Liuyan raised her voice and smashed a fist on Duan Cheng Xuan's shoulder with no strength left in her body, "I want to hear him recite the medicinal formula and tell me the medicinal formula. Could it be that you're standing on the side with a candle in your head and igniting it? Even so, I can't see it. "
After being beaten up, Duan Chengxuan treated it as if he had been scratched by a wild cat. This time, he simply replied with a sullen face, "The candlestick is much steadier than mine. Moreover, who knows when you might have seen it all."
"Shut up." Gu Danyan rubbed his sore temples: "I'm not dead yet, don't you talk to me every day about these sticky words. In the past, wasn't there someone who was still alive and well by your side?"
"Not now, you give birth to a child for me." Duan Chengxuan moved closer and kissed her on her forehead.
"I'm already tired of hearing that, you've almost said it a hundred times beside my ear! It's my baby, isn't it me who changes my mindset? "Why are you sticking to me every day now when I say these things that give you goosebumps?" Gu Danyan felt his head hurt more and more. He felt that the people around him had long gotten rid of their cold and arrogant looks, and now they looked more like a big dog sticking to its skin.
Yet, he didn't even bother to talk about proper business!
It was rare for Duan Cheng Xuan to see her get so angry from embarrassment, and it wasn't bad if she could take a few more glances at her.
Furthermore, he noticed that if he were to be on even terms with Gu Pingyan, he would be able to see the complacency in the corners of her eyes. However, if she were to speak softly and lovingly, the only thing left in front of him would be a shy little girl.
Thinking like this, Duan Chengxuan once again embraced the person in his embrace. "Once your body recovers, we'll go back to Navy Tide together, okay?"
"Go fight your battle, I'll go find my boss. If this is how it is arranged, I'll go." Gu Danyan slightly raised her chin and slapped away the hand Duan Cheng Xuan had placed on her back.
"You can't see, I can't leave you alone."
"I didn't break my arm or my leg, and I'll take Pinchuan with me." Gu Danyan raised both of his arms.
"What is it? Do you still want to sleep with Pingchuan in your arms at night? " Duan Cheng Xuan's brows raised, and she directly stuffed the person back into the blanket. "Listen to my arrangements."
Gu Liuyan hurriedly adjusted her posture and looked at him: "Why do you always think I'm sleeping with a man? Am I such a disrespectful woman?"
"I wonder who was so enthusiastic back then …" Before Duan Cheng Xuan could finish speaking, his words were blocked off by Gu Xuan's hand and brought back to his throat.
Hong Xiao, who was standing by the door, was still holding the documents he had brought today. He heard the rustling of clothes, followed by the quiet fawning voice of the prince, and after some hesitation, he changed his direction and decided not to disturb them for the time being.
Along the way, they even met Ziming, who still wanted to send them food. He only said, "The prince is sleeping with his highness."
"Then it's time to wake up and eat." Ziming raised the food box in his hand and caught a glimpse of the document in Hong Xiao's hand. "Your highness has been bewitched by His Highness and doesn't even read the documents?"
Hong Xiao's face darkened. "I was the one who didn't dare to knock on the door."
"Together?" Ye Zichen patted his shoulder, causing Hong Xiao to follow him.
Compared to Hong Xiao's subordinate, Ziming, who was used to being willful in the Wind Pavilion, simply pushed open the door. He glanced at the two men who had climbed onto the bed, his expression unchanging. "Your Highness is not suited to be violent …"
"What are you talking about!" Gu Danyan quickly half stood up and interrupted Ye Zichen's words.
While Ziming carefully dodged the flying pillow, Duan Chengxuan held onto Gu Daiyan with one hand and looked at Hong Xiao. "Where did the news come from?"
Hong Xiao sneakily glanced at the place where Duan Chengxuan's hand should have been and cleared her throat, "It's a message from the border fortress. Duan Feng has already made a move and recruited twenty thousand soldiers from who knows where.
