"Look, the little baby is looking at us!"
"Really!" Sheng Ning was immediately captivated by the little baby, gazing at the two almost identical little babies lying in the crib, her heart full of joy.
"The eyes are so big and dark, like black crystals."
"I think theyâre like black grapes."
"Clearly, theyâre black crystals."
"Theyâre black grapes."
The two had differing opinions and even started arguing.
"Iâm the kidsâ mom, Iâm right!"
"Alright!" Gu Yunbo raised his hands in surrender, "You win, youâre amazing, alright?"
"Thatâs more like it." Sheng Ningâs attention was again drawn to the two babies; she now has two babies and could literally laugh herself awake from a dream. No matter what the future holds, she feels full of strength.
Absolutely fearless, she feels like she could fly.
"What about the boysâ names? Any ideas yet?" Gu Yunbo, unable to bear the boredom, urged again.
"Not yet!" Sheng Ning was stunned, embarrassed, "I actually forgot to think of names!" Sheâs been quite a failure as a mom, having discussed this with Living Yama when she was first pregnant.
After the babies were born, the name picking would be left to him, so she hasnât thought about naming them. But now, without Living Yama around, she couldnât leave the names undecided forever.
At least she should come up with nicknames; the formal names can wait until theyâre back in the homeland for the father to decide.
"You... did a great job!" Gu Yunbo was speechless, gleefully gave her a thumbs up, "Youâre doing great as a mom; Lin En chose the daughterâs nickname! So why donât you let me pick the sonâs name?"
In truth, she came here with a leg injury intending to secretly pay attention to the baby boy.
If Lin En can choose a name, why canât she?
"Sure!" Sheng Ning agreed straightforwardly.
Both Lin En and Gu Yunbo were her saviors; without their help, she wouldnât have managed to give birth, let alone survive.
"Wait..." Sheng Ning suddenly realized something was off, "Lin En chose the daughterâs name? What is it?" She had no recollection.
"Little Sister!" Gu Yunbo finished the last bite of an apple, tossing the core accurately into the trash can. "Didnât you agree with Lin En?"
Sheng Ning remembered, when coaxing the future husband to marry, they called her Little Sister. Hmm! Little Sister is actually a nice name, hahaha... The more she thought, the better it sounded.
Sheng Ning couldnât help but imagine the scene when Little Sister grows up and everyone still calls her Little Sister.
"Since the baby girl is called Little Sister, the baby boy should be called Little Brother. Perfect, one brother, one sister!" Gu Yunbo nodded in self-approval.
"Thatâs a great name!"
"..." Sheng Ning found her self-promoting amusing. However, Gu Yunboâs personality had changed a lot since they first met, which was a good sign, so she decided not to dampen her enthusiasm.
"Indeed, truly a remarkable name."
"Absolutely!"
"Now anyone who meets my son has to call him Little Brother; itâs a sweet deal."
Gu Yunbo was dumbfounded; can she take back that name?
The two lingered at the glass wall for a long time until an aunt called them back for dinner in the ward. Gu Yunbo had been shot in the leg, and though the bullet passed right through, there was a lot of bleeding, so she needed to replenish nutrition.
Thus, they were eating postpartum meals together.
