The Marquis' Wife
Adelia gave birth

Lu Xiang saw a lot of blood in the basin as well as Adelia's lower body that was wet with that red liquid, although the fishy smell was pungent and yet his face was completely unaffected and focused on one point.

His heart thumped even more to see his wife lying with her legs open and eyes closed, he tried to gather energy in her legs and walked with fear.

"Master Xiao Xieyuan, you mustn't be here later you're unlucky" the nearly middle-aged shaman immediately forbade Lu Xiang but was ignored by the man.

"Sa-honey? honey are you okay?" With trembling hands, he took Adelia's cold hand, her heart was getting stronger, negative and bad feelings slowly filled Lu Xiang's mind.

"Lord. The lady just fell asleep from exhaustion. I beg you to wait outside as we will clear the mistress quickly".

Lu Xiang was very relieved to hear the words of the child shaman but he still made sure by sticking his finger in his nose and feeling Adelia's warm breath, then his tense heart regained its calm.

"You're sure Adelia's okay, right?"

The child shaman nodded confidently, his face looked astonished and confused by the attitude of the famous Juren scholar. Just this time he saw a husband who was so caring that no matter how unlucky he was, he had heard that Lu Xiang loved his wife so much that he did not want to have a concubine, he thought that he was just a trick because he was not satisfied with the candidate who came but now he believes the rumors.

"Congratulations mister Xiao Xieyuan, your wife gave birth to a strong and adorable son. I'm sure it will be great just like you and be a pride for you". The child shaman remembered his initial goal and immediately reported the good news and happy in order to get a big bonus.

He thought that Lu Xiang would smile happily and become excited but the man's usual response left the shaman stunned.

"Thank you for the words. Please clean Adelia carefully and take care of her wound so that there is no infection. You have to make sure of all that before you finish your job". Lu Xiang who was only thinking about his wife's health did not respond so much to what the child shaman said other than the news about Adelia.

"Ba-good sir" The child shaman doubts that he will get a big bonus because of the usual attitude that Lu Xiang shows but a moment later he gets excited again because he remembers what the man ordered.

Lu Xiang walked out of the maternity room and heaved a sigh of relief, he sat on a chair and pensively pensivelyed, the shadow of blood on the lower body of his wife kept on his mind, he did not know that giving birth had a terrible process to bleed a lot.

"Sister Xiang. Is Adel okay?"

Lu Cheng who was waiting immediately asked Adelia.

Lu Xiang nodded weakly. "Adelia was fine, she was now asleep from exhaustion".

Lu Cheng also let out a sigh of relief.

Lu Mei walked out of the maternity room carefully holding a small baby with red skin that was already clean and wrapped in a soft and warm cloth.

"Big master, young master. Look at this little young master, he is so adorable".

Lu Xiang and Lu Cheng turned their heads and looked at the baby who was being sealed, Adelia-like lips and ears made Lu Xiang focus before remembering his wife.

"What about Adelia?"

"The lady is fine, big master, the mistress has been moved to the side room and is still asleep".

"I'll see it. Lu Cheng, rest it's too late".

Lu Cheng who was still interested to see the tiny and adorable baby nodded and returned to his room.

Lu Mei put the baby in the crib that had been prepared for a long time and immediately went out of the room after Lu Xiang entered and sat by the bed looking at his wife.

Adelia opened her eyes and saw her husband sitting holding her hand, the low light made her unable to guess the time and tried to get up.

"You're awake, baby. What are you feeling? Are you all right?".

"It's almost dawn, baby. How are you doing? Do you still feel pain?". Lu Xiang helped his wife sit carefully.

"I'm fine" Adelia then took a water bottle from the space filled with lotus water and drank it to the end, shouting and straining to make her throat feel dry burning.

Lu Xiang continued to pay attention to his wife and asked paranoid questions again. "You sure you're okay? If there is a part that hurts, say dear. I'll get Lu Cai to call the healer".

"I'm fine, baby. My baby. Where's baby?"

Adelia's looking for the baby here and there.

"Baobao is with Lu Mei in the side room dear. Baobao woke up twice from thirst so Lu Mei moved him aside to be easily fed milk. I'll call him in a minute".

Lu Xiang returned quickly after calling Lu Mei. The 20-year-old woman entered the room while holding a sleeping baby.

"Mrs. Baobao is very handsome and adorable, he is so submissive and not fussy". Lu Mei put baby Baobao in Adelia's lap and resigned.

Adelia's gaze immediately softened and was moved to see the baby she held for 9 months and 10 days finally in her arms.

"His face looks just like yours". Adelia looked at Lu Xiang with teary eyes.

Lu Xiang looked at Baobao then smiled happily. "The lips and ears are similar to yours, so adorable".

"really?" Adelia looked at Baobao's lips and ears and laughed happily because she also thought that the two parts were similar to him, the small and red lips and the slightly round earlobes.

Although his son's face is still red and undeveloped, it can be seen that Baobao will grow up to be a handsome and elegant man like his father.

"Baobaoi". Call Adelia in a delicate and affectionate voice, she stroked, poked her son's chubby cheeks and laughed happily.

Baobao was finally awakened by his mother's ignorant touch and cried loudly until Adelia and Lu Xiang were shocked.

"What's the matter, madam?" Lu Mei who was standing guard outside immediately knocked on the door and asked uneasily.

"Baobao awakens" Adelia feels guilty for disturbing the sleeping baby.

"Maybe little young master hungry mistress. I'll prepare the milk".

"no need. I'll breastfeed Baobao myself". Adelia took the buttons off her shirt and led her son to breastfeed.

Lu Mei looked at Lu Xiang who was silently watching then did not warn Adelia anything, usually, the woman does not breastfeed her child for fear of losing her charm due to changes that occur in the chest that decreases but knows the nature of her employer, he was sure that Adelia was more concerned with the health of the young master than paying attention to beauty, he also paid back.

Baobao suckled with a strong instinct, his cries immediately died down feeling the warm breast in his mouth made Adelia become relieved and then turned to her husband who was only silent from now on, lu Xiang's gaze focused on Baobao's lips that were busy sucking.

"Are you not asleep, baby? your face is a little wrinkled. I'm sorry for making you stay up late".

Lu Xiang's focus became crumpled and looked at Adelia then shook his head. "I did it because I wanted to. Don't apologize".

"Then go to sleep. You must have been so exhausted from taking care of me all night".

"alright. I'm gonna take a shower before I go to bed, are you hungry, baby? I'll have the waiter prepare breakfast immediately".

Hearing breakfast, Adelia felt hungry and nodded in agreement, not seeing her husband refocus on his breast while breastfeeding Baobao before coming out of the room.
