Yibo POV

I slowly opened my eyes and shifted to my other side, wincing a little at the soreness. The only feeling that was more potent than the discomfort was the realization that my little boy was finally born. I smiled as I noticed that Zhan stayed with me, he was still wearing the same clothes he wore yesterday. I sighed, trust him not to go home and sleep properly.

He was still sleeping with his arms crossed under his head on my bedside, I glanced at the clock and it was 7 am. He shifted so I reached over and ran my hand through his black hair and down the side of his face.

He slowly opened his eyes and smiled kissing the inside of my palm "Hi, how are you feeling?" he asked sitting up. I smiled back "I should be asking you that question." I said slightly frowning "Why didn't you go home?" I asked and he shrugged "And leave you here?" He said as though it was impossible to do so "Besides, I wouldn't fall asleep if you weren't with me." he added.

I always found it hard to sleep without Zhan; I never realized it was the same for him too.

"Ziyi said to tell you she'd come back I think any minute now." He added. I nodded, smiling remembering her face when I teased her about being an aunt.

20 minutes later she knocked on the door "Speak of the devil." I said as she smiled walking in. Zhan turned to me "I'm going to get some coffee, you want anything?" he asked and I shook my head. He gave my hand a squeeze then he walked out closing the door behind him. Ziyi replaced him beside me chuckling

"You look terrible." She teased and I frowned "And you tell me now after my husband just left." I said, and he was his handsome self despite having spent all night here. She laughed. "Don't worry, I'm sure he'll still think you're beautiful. I stopped by at the estate for some fresh clothes." She said gesturing to the duffle bag she brought with her.

 I smiled "You're a lifesaver." I said and she shrugged "Nah what are friends for," She said. Just then a nurse came in and laid a stray of breakfast on the table next to me, I smiled at her and thank her. I turned my attention back to Ziyi; ever since I came back from my honeymoon she hasn't been herself. 

I could see that she had something on her mind she wasn't telling me about, knowing how she hated meddling I gave her some time. But I couldn't keep stalling any longer "You want to tell me what's eating you up?" I said and she was taken aback for a moment then she grimaced. "Bravo, I'm surprised it took you this long to ask. Were you like physically restraining yourself?" she asked knowingly and I smiled a little.

"It felt that way, what's going on?" I asked and she averted her gaze. I was shocked by the look on her face; it was of uncertainty and the only kind that can be caused by a man. "My God, this is about Zhoucheng, isn't it?' I asked, "What happened with him? I thought he left after the wedding." She looked at me then.

"Not before I slept with him." She said and my eyebrows shot up "I don't know, after you guys left we started chatting and dancing. He offered to take me home and next thing I knew we were dragging each other to my bedroom." She added.

"Wow." That's all I could say at that moment, "And it was so amazing." She said with a grin and I chuckled knowingly remembering my first time with Zhan. When we both sobered up she looked at me "When I woke up he was gone, no note, no phone call. There wasn't even a single indication that he was even there, to begin with." She said then she shook her head sadly.

"I mean that was the plan right? But what I didn't understand is why I felt so disappointed." She added. She looked down and a smile tugged on the corners of her lips "Come on, you can dish out the 'I told you so'." She said and I shook my head
