Chapter 1225: Keep Your Voices Down

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Su Shen’s expression had softened considerably. His gaze drifted once more to the hospital bed, where Gu Zi lay resting in peaceful slumber.

The exhaustion of childbirth still lingered faintly in her features, but sleep was gently smoothing away the strain. A delicate smile curled at the corners of her lips, as if she were dreaming of something tender and warm.

A subtle ache stirred in Su Shen’s chest. For a long time, he had carried a gnawing sense of guilt, but now, seeing her like this, some of that weight began to lift. His beloved wife had endured the harrowing pain of labor to bring their child into the world—for him. Such unwavering devotion, such selfless love... It humbled him.

In that quiet moment, Su Shen made a silent vow: for the rest of his life, he would cherish and protect her with every ounce of strength he had. Whatever peace and happiness she had now, he would ensure it never left her again.

Su Li and little Lele, their manners uncannily mature for their age, sat quietly by Gu Zi’s bedside. Neither of them spoke, nor did they make a fuss. They simply watched her, their wide eyes filled with quiet reverence.

To them, this was their mother—not just in name, but in spirit. Without her, their young lives would never have known the warmth, love, and happiness they now took for granted. She was even more precious to them than a birth mother.

A few moments later, Su Bing and Su Jing returned with bags of food. But when they saw Gu Zi fast asleep, they instinctively lowered their voices and tiptoed inside. The entire room had settled into a hush.

Su Shen turned to them and said calmly, "Su Jing, take the kids home first. Bring back some clean clothes and wash the ones Gu Zi changed out of. I’ll stay and watch over her."

Su Jing nodded without question. She set the bags down quietly, then shepherded the children out one by one. The door clicked shut behind them. Silence fell like a blanket.

Now, it was just Su Shen, the woman he loved, and their newborn. He eased into the chair by the bed, his gaze never leaving them. Time passed slowly in that golden hush. He could have sat there forever.

But as all tranquility tends to do in real life, it didn’t last.

A few minutes later, the door burst open as another mother was wheeled into the room. She had also just given birth, but unlike Su Zi’s peaceful arrival, this one brought an entourage—a loud, insufferably noisy entourage. The moment they entered, the atmosphere shattered.

Su Shen’s eyes darkened as he watched Gu Zi’s previously relaxed brow begin to furrow. She shifted slightly in her sleep, clearly disturbed by the rising cacophony of chatter. She was still resisting wakefulness, clinging to her dreams, but it was obvious she was being dragged back to reality.
