"Congratulations! It's a baby girl!"

Wei WuXian stood up quickly. He ran towards the nurse and was astonished.

When he saw the nurse was carrying the newly-born baby, he covered his mouth and sobbed. He cried a little and quickly wiped his tears.

"How is gege?"

"The mother's currently in a very weak condition, Mr...."

"Wei, Wei WuXian."

"Mr Wei, the mother lost quite a lot of blood after all, so he needed a lot of rest."

Wei WuXian's face went pale and sighed.

"Is he gonna be fine? If only I were there sooner... Gege wouldn't suffer much blood loss..."

"I don't know what happened. But please cheer up. He's gonna be fine."

The nurse patted his shoulder lightly.

"Do you want to hold the baby?"

"... Can I?"

"Sure, Mr Wei. Isn't it your baby too?"

"Oh, no! She's not mine. I'm an omega, too."

The nurse halted and uttered the silent 'Oh'.

Wei WuXian flinched when he felt she was looking down on the mother of the baby.

He hesitantly took the baby and after another nurse called the nurse in charge of Xiao XingChen, she bowed to Wei WuXian and explained to him the way to find the baby's room and the nurse went away.

Wei WuXian nodded showing his understanding. When the nurse talked to her friend, Wei WuXian could hear them talking about his gege.

'A single mother.'

'Poor the baby.'

Wei WuXian held his anger. His body trembled. But then he looked at the baby girl he was holding, his heart melted. She was so tiny.

'So cute...'

Wei WuXian thought. Then he made up his mind.

"Don't worry. I know who your father is. I'll protect you and gege! I won't let anyone say you're fatherless! I will be the father! I won't let anyone look down on you!"

"You're my precious niece, after all!"

He decided.

Wei WuXian went to see Xiao XingChen in his room while holding the baby. He saw a man laying so weak on the bed, half asleep.

"Gege?" He called, carefully.

"... A-Ying..."

"Gege, are you okay?"

"Ahahaha, I'm okay... I just need some rest."

"..."

Wei WuXian pouted. He knew Xiao XingChen was lying. He could see his face was so pale and his body trembled when he tried to sit.

'Liar...'

Wei WuXian held back his words.

"Is that... My baby?"

"Ah, yes."

Wei WuXian went closer and sat beside Xiao XingChen.

"Look, it's a baby girl, ge. His eyes look like you."

"My baby girl..."

Xiao XingChen let out his tears. Wei WuXian helped him to put the baby in his arms.
