Chapter 31 - Depriving the Right to be a Father
.Seeing how distressed and aggrieved his younger brother looked now, Li Yi made another concession. He stared at Li An, a shadow crossing his face as flames flickered in his eyes, "Are you really dete...Chapter Thirty-One: Stripping the Father of His Rights
Yan Luoxi started breastfeeding. Before lifting her clothes, she warily glanced at Li An once. Afraid that Yan Luoxi would kick him out again, Li An quickly turned around and pretended to do something else, moving as far away from them as possible.
The hospital room had a lactation consultant and special caregivers. To their eyes, Yan Luoxi and Li An were the perfect newly married couple. Wanting to avoid letting others sense that there was anything different about her relationship with Li An, she couldn't directly ask him to leave. She could only bow her head and begin breastfeeding.
The baby's sucking was instinctive; it was immediately obvious how hard the baby was suckling in her arms. Yan Luoxi felt an overwhelming joy and fulfillment. Her hand gently stroked the child’s hair and smooth face. This soft, delicate little being would gradually grow up in her embrace.
The sight of the breast-feeding infant completely unleashed Yan Luoxi's innate maternal love. She only wanted to lavish all the best things in the world on this baby.
After seeing Yan Luoxi bowing her head to feed their child, Li An's attention towards her was full of warmth and tenderness; they now had a child together.
The way she tenderly stroked her son’s face with one hand while gazing at him with such an affectionate look in her eyes made the whole room seem bathed in a holy light. At this moment, Li An was completely mesmerized by Yan Luoxi and felt an overwhelming sense of joy and happiness.
He thought his life was at a dead end, but suddenly it turned around for the better. The vigorous cry of the newborn child and the bashful yet loving face of his beloved partner appeared before him. The person he loved most had given him the greatest hope and the best gift.
In this moment, Li An felt an urge to rush over and kiss Yan Luoxi right away, just like how he would immediately go to greet their daughter with a kiss every morning when he woke up.
Every day Li An was busy taking care of the child and Yan Luoxi without feeling tired at all. He didn't even know where so much love and motivation came from.
Sunlight streamed in through the window, making the hospital room warm and bright.
After several days of practice, Li An dared to hold his little daughter in her swaddling clothes. But he always did it with extreme caution, constantly adjusting his posture to make sure he wouldn't drop her.
With a beaming face, he walked around the room holding his daughter, showing her flowers and trees one moment then putting her before Yan Luoxi's eyes another, hoping to chat with Yan Luoxi through their child to strengthen their bond. However, most of the time Yan Luoxi would just smile at their daughter without speaking a word to him.
Li An had long been accustomed to Yan Luoxi's coldness and distance. No matter what, he held his child with joy and smiled contentedly. While smiling, he suddenly felt warm in his hand, followed by dampness seeping through his shirt.
The little girl was very close to her father; every time Li An picked her up she either pooped or peed.
"Baby, you two are really good," Li An didn't show any annoyance but laughed happily instead. For more and faster chapters, please visit [the website].
Yan Luoxi watched as Li An put the child down and, together with the postpartum nurse, changed the baby's diaper. She couldn’t help recalling the second son of the prestigious Li family from her past. He had once lorded over everyone and everything in a haughty manner. Who would have thought that one day, he, who was so particular about cleanliness, wouldn't mind leaving his own stench and would bend down to wipe a little baby’s bottom
A week after the child's birth, Yan Luoxi's life gradually returned to its normal routine. Her incision had healed well, allowing her to walk freely; she was producing enough breast milk to feed the child herself; and the child was healthy and getting more beautiful every day.
Li An held the chubby little baby in his arms. After just seven days of growth, this child seemed to have undergone a transformation, becoming plump and fair-skinned, like a lovely snow-white fairy transformed from an ugly duckling since birth. Li An couldn’t help wanting to kiss him.
Yan Luoxi, while the postpartum nurse and special caregiver were not around, blinked her eyes and said with a smile, "Hand the child over; I want to feed it." Yan Luoxi had her own motives. She was afraid that once she spoke up about something later on, Li An would get upset and take the baby away from her. Therefore, she first took the initiative to have the baby returned to her.
Li An didn’t understand why but thought that Yan Luoxi wanted to be close to their child. Thus, he happily handed the baby back into Yan Luoxi's arms.
Holding the child tightly in her arms, Yan Luoxi looked at Li An with a cold gaze and said, "Mr. Li, as the child has been born safely and healthily, you have also been here for about seven or eight days. It’s time for you to leave now."
"What" Li An had been basking in the happiness and warmth brought by his baby and Yan Luoxi these days. Furthermore, her attitude toward him had also been good recently, almost making him believe that she wouldn’t ask him to leave. He hadn't expected her to suddenly make such a request.
"Luoxi, let's stop this nonsense. A child needs a father."
Lì An tried to keep a smile while saying that. She didn't want to ruin the warmth and harmony they好不容易獲得的溫馨和睦。
Yan Luoxi coldly looked at Lì An: "There are plenty of children without fathers, and my child can also grow up happily without one." "Think about what you've done to me in the past. Do you think you deserve to be my daughter's father I'm already treating you with kindness by allowing you to stay here these days."
"Yan Luoxi, don't overstep your bounds," Lì An said emotionally but kept her voice low so as not to frighten the child. "I may have wronged you in the past, but what does that have to do with our child When I broke up with you, I had no idea about the pregnancy. If I'd known, things might've been different.
You didn't acknowledge this child as mine when you found out about your own pregnancy and never contacted me. Ever since I found out that this was my child, however, I’ve been trying to make up for everything. Why should you keep me from my child How can you take away my right to be a father"
"I'm not taking away your right as a father. If you want to see the child, you're welcome to at any time. But now this hospital room is mine. We haven’t had anything to do with each other for a long time, so it’s inappropriate for you to stay here anymore. That's why I’m asking you to leave," Yan Luoxi argued reasonably.
"You mean if I want to see the child, I can at any time" Lì An asked intently.
“Yes.” Yan Luoxi thought she had finally managed to get rid of Lì An.
"Then since I think about her all the time, I should be able to see her all the time," Lì An smiled slightly with a hint of satisfaction. excellent impressions during their first meeting.
