The First Meeting 1

Outside the delivery room, Wu Yiqiong was restless while Wu Erbai was resting with his eyes closed.

Wu Sanxing scratched his head and touched his face several times, wanting to smoke so bad. He looked even more anxious than his eldest brother. “I’ll go outside for a moment since it’s still quite busy in the delivery room.” He couldn’t hold it in anymore.

Wu Yiqiong didn’t have the energy to pay any attention to him.

Wu Erbai waved his hand as if to tell his younger brother to go away quickly. “It’s best not to come back. You’re so noisy.”

Wu Sanxing felt like he had been pardoned. He ran downstairs to the hospital yard, lit a cigarette, and took several puffs of it in no time.

To a certain extent, he was addicted to cigarettes and felt so ecstatic when he smoked that it was as if he could fly. He leaned against a pillar as he continued to smoke.

He had originally calculated the time before he came. Based on his sister-in-law’s physique, it shouldn’t be easy for her to deliver a baby. He had already arrived late, but the baby still hadn’t come out yet. He didn’t know why it was talking so long. Will I need to stay here for a whole day?

It wasn’t that he didn’t care about his eldest brother, he just hadn’t experienced many incidents related to childbirth. He felt that it probably didn’t matter whether he showed up or not. He didn’t think there was any family in the world that needed all of the relatives to be present when a baby was born.

The main reason was that he knew his father was there. If he didn’t show up, the old man might scold him when he got drunk. His father was getting older, so he didn’t want to smash things and walk away like he used to do when he was young. It was better to placate his father whenever he could.

But these people in the hospital really treat the old man very well. They even arranged a meeting between him and the hospital director to talk in the VIP room. If they have such a good relationship, then my sister-in-law should be in good hands. Maybe I should leave.

Alright. He felt that he had convinced himself after he finished smoking. I could buy a flower basket for the newborn thing, or I could buy some baby formula. I know where to buy this kind of stuff.

He went upstairs to the delivery room. He was just scratching his head and trying to come up with an excuse to leave when the sound of a baby crying suddenly came from the delivery room.

“The baby’s here! The baby’s here!” Wu Yiqiong jumped up and rushed to the entrance of the delivery room. He touched the door and discovered that he couldn’t open it. He looked back at Wu Erbai and Wu Sanxing with a dazed expression. “What do I do?”

Wu Erbai looked at him and sighed. “You can’t go in there. Can you calm down a little?”

Wu Sanxing went up and hooked his arm around his eldest brother’s shoulders to pull him back a bit and then said to his other brother, “You’re heartless. It’s not a virtue to calm down at a time like this. Big Brother, congratulations!”

Old Dog Wu rushed out of the VIP room on one side. “The baby is crying really loudly, right? People upstairs and downstairs must be able to hear it crying as well. This child might be easy to raise.”

The door to the delivery room finally opened and a nurse walked out holding the baby.

Wu Yiqiong had been so anxious that he was now in a sluggish state. He wiped his tears and asked, “Mine?”

“Of course it’s yours.” The nurse frowned, unable to believe he had said something so ridiculous. “You have a son.”

Wu Erbai also walked towards the baby. As the group of people pushed Wu Sanxing aside, he looked at the little guy who was being held from a distance. The baby was so small, and his eyes hadn’t even opened yet. Wu Sanxing suddenly felt emotional as well.

Old Dog Wu started crying uncontrollably and told Wu Yiqiong to go and see his wife so that she wouldn’t feel left out. Wu Yiqiong walked to the ward while holding the baby.

“I’m your Uncle Three,” Wu Sanxing said as he followed behind them. Although he knew this baby couldn’t see him, he still made a funny face and strange sound to attract the baby’s attention. He felt that there was one more thing to make his life happy, which was a rare event.

  1. There were times where we wondered what Uncle 3 felt for our sweet boy. To see him show some warm and fuzzy makes this a total ‘aww’ moment. Well done. 🤗
