The village was quiet at night, a gentle breeze rustling the tips of Ye Xiu's hair.
Ye Xiu rushed out the door, only to realize she no longer had the composure to face Bai Da.
She couldn't understand why Bai Da could treat Xingxing so poorly. Even her intervention couldn't sway him in the slightest.
Initially, Bai Da had seemed even more eager than she was for Xingxing's birth.
He had said he would carry Xingxing on his shoulders and show her the stars.
The day Xingxing was born, they were completely unprepared. Her water broke so suddenly.
They had to rush to the hospital, someone else was already giving birth, and they couldn't wait; Xingxing just had to be delivered.
Bai Da didn't even bring money, so they had to ask Nan Jin for help paying the fees.
Why was Nan Jin there at that time?
The pain was so intense; she eventually passed out, hazily hearing the nurse say it was a girl. She caught a glimpse before slipping back into unconsciousness.
