After confirming that Ye Xiaomeng had no further complications, she was discharged from the hospital. While her physical injuries were healing, the wounds in her heart would take much longer to mend.

Ye Xiaomeng returned to her hometown with her parents. Concerned that being there might trigger painful memories, her parents persuaded her to leave that place. Moreover, her work didn’t hold any sentimental value either.

As she looked at the place where she had spent ten years, all that remained were pain and regret. She left with a heavy heart.

Because she needed to rest for a while and post-miscarriage recovery also required postpartum confinement, she promised to visit Shu Pan after she gave birth. She even joked about being the child’s godmother. Shu Pan nodded tearfully.

Cheng Yang knew that Ye Xiaomeng was leaving and had been persistently trying to change her mind. Finally, he reluctantly agreed but also expressed his determination to win Xiaomeng’s heart back.

After watching Ye Xiaomeng and her family leave, Shu Pan was reluctant to part, but eventually she left Bin City and returned to Lotus Town. The events that transpired in Bin City felt like a dream to her now.

Time passed as swiftly as a white steed. It was now early autumn, and Shu Pan was already at home awaiting childbirth. Her due date was approaching, which made her parents and Auntie Lu extremely nervous.

Shu Pan now resembled a clumsy penguin with her large belly and swollen feet. Sometimes she would even self-deprecatingly compare her feet to pig trotters.

Being pregnant was a wonderful thing for a couple. They looked forward to the birth of the fruit of love together, but she could only rely on herself when she was pregnant. She had no lover to share her joy and no one to share her hardships.

Yet, Shu Pan merely smiled and didn’t complain. She had made her own choices, and she had no regrets.

A few white clouds drifted across the sky on an early autumn day as the weather began to cool down.

Shu Pan had already prepared her bag for the delivery and was ready to go at any moment.

On this day, after finishing her meal and intending to take a walk, she suddenly realized that her water had broken. Nervously, she called her father and Auntie Lu. Since this was her first time giving birth, she was in a state of panic.

She tossed and turned on the hospital bed. The doctor informed her that she was only dilated two centimeters and advised her to conserve her energy for the delivery.

Observing the attentive care the husband in the adjacent bed was providing, Shu Pan couldn’t help but envy them.

She was alone in this struggle.

Finally, when Shu Pan was almost in despair, she was wheeled into the delivery room. Shu Laide and Auntie Lu paced nervously outside.

Ignoring her appearance, Shu Pan screamed loudly, using it as a way to alleviate her pain.

“Push harder! Oh no, the baby’s position is a bit off.” Shu Pan immediately grew anxious upon hearing this and forgot about her pain. The doctor encouraged her to give it her all.

Finally, just before Shu Pan fell unconscious, she heard the doctor saying that it was a baby girl. She breathed a sigh of relief and was too exhausted to keep her eyes open, slipping into unconsciousness.

When she woke up, she was already in the delivery room, and her gaze wandered around the pink curtains. As she regained her senses, she saw her father and Auntie Lu looking intently at the little bundle in the small crib. They were both seriously studying her.

“Look at her eyes, they’re just like Panpan’s.” Shu Laide grew more fond of the baby girl the more he looked at her.

“No, look at her mouth.” The two of them argued.

In reality, it was hard to tell who a baby that small resembles. However, everyone seemed to reach a consensus to not mention the child’s father.

Shu Pan smiled gently, her face radiating contentment. She looked at the two and said, “Honestly, how can we tell at this age?”

“Panpan, she looks like you, a beauty in the making,” Auntie Lu said joyfully..
