5th August 2019, JingShi residence, Cloud Recesses residential neighborhood

YiLan was cooking while her father was doing some paperwork, her uncle was taking a nap, her granduncle was marking tests and her future brother-in-law was sitting on the sofa, watching tv.

Since YiLan found out that YuHao was pregnant, she would cook him lots of sweets. Today was no different,  she cooked some Osmanthus cake. He likes her cooking.

It was dead silence on the home of the Lans. Usually, at that time, you could hear the twins chatting, or maybe hear YiLan playing the piano in the living room. But since YiJun is in a coma, now their home was the silence of a cemetery.

YiLan finishes the face and brings it to her family.

"Here you go, dad. You need to eat a bit." YiLan said to her father

"Mn." He takes a bite out of the cake  " Good as always"

"Mn." she said as he then brought some cake to her granduncle

"Thank you, A-Yi." The elder said to his grandniece.

Then she brings a big piece of cake to YuHao.

"Here you go, bro. Eat" she smiled at him.

"Mn. Thanks, Shijie." He said as he started eating the cake.

Ours passed, the home was still silent until a scream suddenly came.

Lan WangJi runs towards his son-in-law.

"YuHao!" He called him as the young man looked at the elder man.

"It's coming....." He said teary-eyed

"Let's go in the car." he said as he helped YuHao go to the car. He put him on the back of the car. Then he went after his daughter

"YiLan!" He yelled after her.

YiLan comes running at her father. "What's wrong dad?" She looked at him worried.

"There isn't much personal at maternity right now. I need you to help him give birth." He said as he looked t her

"What?! I'm just in my 4th year of university?!"

" XiuLan, please do it for your brother." He said.

"Ok. Let's go!" She said as she rushed to the car.

In a few minutes, they were at the maternity. YuHao was taken there and soon enough, he was starting to give birth.

YiLan was helping him to give birth, while Lan WangJi was helping him with moral support.

In the meantime, in the emergency aisle, a man goes toward the room where YiJun in was. No one was there, just a few ignorant nurses.

That man goes to YiJun. He looks at the inert body of the young man.

"I'm sorry....I'm late..." the voice of Wei WuXian could be heard.

Now Wuxian looks at his unconscious son, teary-eyed. "I'm sorry, A-Zhen..." He repeated his words.

Suddenly the sound of footsteps can be heard. Then a gasp.

"A-Xian?" A woman's voice came from behind Wei WuXian.

Wen WuXian looks behind him and sees his adoptive older sister S-Shijie?" He looked at her

"A-Xian...."She comes to him then caresses his cheek. "A-Xian...your back." She said as he looked at her brother.

"Yes, Shijie." He said as he looked at his son.

"He-" she gets cut off by him.

"I know, A-Yi told me." He said "I'm so sorry... I feel like I failed them..." He said as his tears continued to pour.
