- Chapter 36 - Feeding the Baby
After the one-hundred-day banquet for Mu Baobao, Gu Zhi started to busy herself with wedding preparations. Xu Muyan held the baby, gently stroking the little, sticky-rice-like face.
She smiled and said, “The baby is still small. It’s not a good time for a wedding.”
Gu Zhi pouted, “Then when should we have it? I swore I have to give you a grand wedding.”
Xu Muyan: “Wait until the child is older. No rush.”
Gu Zhi nodded obediently. “I’ll go make the formula.”
After the formula was made, the baby was asleep, so she set it aside. Xu Muyan looked at Gu Zhi and said tenderly, “You’ve been exhausted these past few days, having to get up in the middle of the night to make formula for the baby.”
Gu Zhi: “It’s what I should do, and you work even harder taking care of the baby. You haven’t been sleeping well lately, you have dark circles.”
Xu Muyan laughed: “You do too. Except for me breastfeeding the baby, you’ve done almost everything else.”
Gu Zhi put her arm around Xu Muyan’s shoulder and raised her chin. “Speaking of which, haven’t we not done it in a long time?”
Xu Muyan huffed, “You only think about that. I wouldn’t dare.”
“Then should we go to another room?”
“No, what if the baby wakes up and we don’t know?”
“Then we’ll do it right here. Even if the baby wakes up, she’s too small to remember.”
“If she wakes up and cries, that’s too much trouble.”
Gu Zhi was discouraged. “Fine.” I wonder when I’ll finally get what I want?
Mu Baobao was still in swaddling clothes, occasionally waking up in the middle of the night and crying non-stop. Gu Zhi picked up the new children’s book and started reading to her: “Once upon a time, there was a princess who fell in love with a young woman from the countryside…”
Xu Muyan heard this vaguely. “What kind of fairy tale is that? I’ve never heard it before.”
Gu Zhi checked the author. “Oh, it’s a new one.”
Xu Muyan: “Can the baby understand it?”
Gu Zhi rubbed the baby’s tender hand while reading from the book. “Trust me.”
Sure enough, the baby showed a slight smile. Gu Zhi was overjoyed: “Look, look, the baby is smiling.”
Xu Muyan was a little surprised. “It seems little children really like falling asleep to bedtime stories.” She watched the baby smile, revealing her tiny white gums. Overwhelmed with motherly affection, she leaned in and kissed the baby’s cheek.
Gu Zhi saw this, pulled at the corner of Xu Muyan’s mouth, and pointed to her own lips. Xu Muyan smiled helplessly and kissed her too.
Gu Zhi grinned contentedly and continued reading. Before long, the baby was asleep.
The baby was finally asleep, and the two relaxed. Xu Muyan stretched her limbs. “I’m so tired. I’m going to take a shower first.”
Gu Zhi pinched Xu Muyan’s waist. Xu Muyan couldn’t help but yelp. That was her sensitive spot. What if she accidentally spoke too loudly and woke the baby?
Gu Zhi pretended to be innocent: “I touched it by accident.”
Xu Muyan glared at her and scolded, “I’m going to shower first. You watch the baby. No peeking.”
Gu Zhi swallowed, still not letting go. “What?”
“Let’s shower together.”
Xu Muyan folded her arms, looking at her coldly. Gu Zhi knew she was being unreasonable, but she couldn’t help it. She had endured for ten months. If she endured any longer, it wouldn’t be healthy.
Knowing what Gu Zhi was thinking, Xu Muyan didn’t strongly object, she just said, “Be quiet. Don’t wake the baby.”
Gu Zhi almost jumped for joy: “Okay, okay!”
Gu Zhi scooped Xu Muyan into a bridal carry and walked into the bathroom, stripping off their clothes in no time. Xu Muyan twitched her mouth. Gu Zhi was slow at everything, except this one thing…
“Sister, I’ve missed you so much I’ve been dazed every day.”
“Mmm—” Xu Muyan’s body shifted. She quickly bit her lip to stifle the sound. This woman!
After the shower, Xu Muyan looked at the red marks on her neck. It was a good thing she wouldn’t be filming for a few months, or she wouldn’t dare show her face.
Gu Zhi hugged her from behind, smiling triumphantly: “I told you it wouldn’t wake the baby. You insisted on stopping so quickly. I didn’t even reach half the time of before.”
Xu Muyan glared at her: “It’s late. Let’s go to sleep.”
Gu Zhi stroked her, blowing a breath near her ear: “Hmph, but you were still so wet just now.”
Xu Muyan’s ears turned red. She quickly walked out, with Gu Zhi following close behind. They went to check on the baby, but the baby suddenly woke up and cried.
Gu Zhi: “…” She must be hungry.
Xu Muyan immediately started feeding her. Gu Zhi had bitten her a moment ago, and a little milk had leaked, so the baby probably wasn’t full and was still crying. Xu Muyan looked at Gu Zhi helplessly. Gu Zhi gave her a wronged look, gently placed Xu Muyan on the bed, and took over the task of comforting the baby.
“Once upon a time…” Gu Zhi read several stories, but the baby didn’t fall asleep as quickly as before. Instead, the crying got louder. “The world only loves the mother…” Gu Zhi sang an old nursery rhyme, but the baby was still wailing. So she switched to another song: “In the distant East, there is a dragon…”
The baby was still crying. Nothing seemed to work. Gu Zhi had no choice but to place the baby in the bassinet and make some funny, comical faces. The baby immediately widened her eyes in curiosity and burst into laughter.
She finally laughed! Gu Zhi felt immensely relieved.
“Mummy…” Gu Zhi stared blankly at Mu Baobao, as if hallucinating.
Mu Baobao: “Mummy…”
The first word the baby said was calling her. Gu Zhi felt a surge of pink, maternal warmth bubble up around her. This, this was an incredible surprise.
“Sister! The baby called me Mummy!”
Xu Muyan must have been too tired, as she had already fallen asleep. Gu Zhi looked back, and the baby was also asleep. The room was quiet, yet it felt incredibly warm to Gu Zhi. This is the warmth of home.
The next day, Gu Zhi watched Xu Muyan wake up and quickly announced the good news. “I have great news for you. Mu Baobao called me Mummy!”
Xu Muyan suddenly opened her eyes. They both went to Mu Baobao. Mu Baobao opened her bright eyes, not crying or fussing, and smiled sweetly at her two mothers.
“Mama… Mummy…”
She stammered out a few words. These few short words caused the two adults to go uncontrollably crazy. Xu Muyan cried with joy. She hadn’t been this happy even when she won the Golden Deer Award: “Mu Baobao called me Mama too.”
Gu Zhi hugged her. “Our baby can talk.”
Seeing her two mothers hugging and exclaiming, Mu Baobao found it funny and laughed non-stop, making her cheeks pink and round, like a peach. Gu Zhi gently pinched the baby’s little cheek.
“Who do you think the baby will grow up to look like? Will she inherit your big, beautiful eyes?”
Xu Muyan shook her head. “I think it would be better if she looked like you.”
“Why?”
“Because you have a more charming look.”
“No way,” Gu Zhi said seriously. “I’m not as beautiful as you.”
Xu Muyan chuckled: “I’m being serious.”
“I am too!” Gu Zhi kissed Xu Muyan. Xu Muyan scolded, “The baby is watching?”
“Let her watch. One day she’ll learn from how I love you and love her wife the same way.”
“So, you’re saying Mu Baobao will also inherit your devotion?”
“Mu Baobao will grow up to be as beautiful as you. I wonder how many people will fall for her.”
Four years later. Almost five-year-old Mu Baobao, wearing a pretty pink dress with her hair tied in pigtails by her Mama, said in a soft, baby voice, “Mama, Baobao is going to school now.”
This was Mu Baobao’s first day of kindergarten. Xu Muyan was a little reluctant. Since Mu Baobao was born, she had been with her constantly—bathing her, cooking for her, taking her out—doing everything short of sleeping for her. Seeing Mu Baobao carrying her schoolbag, Xu Muyan’s eyes were red. The child has finally grown up…
“Mama~” Seeing Xu Muyan upset, Mu Baobao quickly grabbed her hand with her small one, comforting her not to cry.
Gu Zhi lifted Mu Baobao and handed her to a bodyguard. “Alright, little squirt, time for school.”
After Mu Baobao was sent off, Gu Zhi cried tears of joy. “It’s finally happened!!”
Xu Muyan asked curiously, “Why are you laughing?”
Gu Zhi giggled: “I’m just so happy it’s finally time for just the two of us.”
For the past few years, the two of them were either taking care of Mu Baobao or taking care of Mu Baobao. Although they could occasionally be intimate late at night, the fear of the baby crying left them mentally and physically exhausted. Overall, it hadn’t been easy. Now that the child was going to school, Gu Zhi was naturally overjoyed.
She took Xu Muyan’s hand and walked up to the second floor. “Sister, let’s start!”
Xu Muyan pursed her lips and smiled, her face flushed. “I’ll shower first.”
Gu Zhi, however, embraced her waist, taking a deep breath of the fragrance of her hair near her neck. She chuckled softly: “Sister, can we be quick? I can’t wait any longer.”
Xu Muyan kissed her lips: “No, we must shower before. That’s our agreement.”
Gu Zhi held her shoulders, clutching tightly: “Then let’s go together…”
Xu Muyan stretched lazily: “You were always with me when I was pregnant, but now I want to shower alone.”
Gu Zhi whimpered but hugged Xu Muyan. When Xu Muyan was pregnant, Gu Zhi hadn’t dared to argue or fuss with her. She was even cautious when holding hands. But now, she knew how to make Xu Muyan yield.
Xu Muyan’s face hardened: “Gu Zhi, let go of me.”
Gu Zhi smiled seductively: “Mu Baobao has gone to school, and we have the day off today. Of course, we should go big. Don’t you think?”
Gu Zhi lifted Xu Muyan into a bridal carry and carried her into the spacious bathroom. Xu Muyan resigned herself to letting Gu Zhi undress her, apply the shower gel, and wash her body. During this time, Gu Zhi behaved honestly, just like when Xu Muyan was pregnant, showing none of her usual hunger. Xu Muyan later realized that this was just the beginning.
After washing her body, Gu Zhi did not carry her to the bedroom. Instead, she hugged her tightly and kissed her rosy lips.
“Sister, you have to listen to me now, okay?”
Xu Muyan felt her ears heating up. She leaned anxiously into Gu Zhi’s embrace and mumbled a low “Mmm,” like an irritated kitten. Xu Muyan looked at herself in the mirror. She wanted to beg for mercy, but Gu Zhi had no intention of stopping. Xu Muyan could only frown and accept.
After a while, Gu Zhi asked: “Are you alright?”
Xu Muyan was already speechless and just hummed a reply. Gu Zhi then picked her up and headed to the bedroom. The setting was strangely familiar. Xu Muyan frantically clutched her sleeve, stunned: “Again?!”
Gu Zhi: “How can once be enough? We have to do it until the end of time.”
Xu Muyan: “……”
