Chapter 700: Like You or Like Me
"I'm too lazy to talk to you, I'm going to eat."
Mu Xiaoyu couldn't help but laugh, rolled her eyes at him, and forced herself to calm down and eat.
Seeing that she was in a good mood, Li Chenxu noticed that the gloom that had been lingering in her heart had disappeared, and there was no trace of the bloody revenge she had just experienced the night before.
"By the way, do you have any ideas about the child's name?"
After the two ate for a while, Li Chenxu suddenly spoke up. Actually, he had already asked Mu Xiaoyu once before, but Mu Xiaoyu had only recently given birth, was physically weak, and was emotionally unstable, so she simply didn't have time to think about the question.
Seeing that Mu Xiaoyu had improved a lot in all aspects, Li Chenxu brought it up again.
In a few more days, the baby should be ready to be born. Before that, it doesn't matter if we haven't decided on a formal name yet, but we still need to have a nickname.
The moment the topic of names came up, Mu Xiaoyu immediately became troubled.
She had thought about it these past few days, but she had absolutely no experience when it came to naming her baby. And since it was her precious child, she didn't want to just pick any name to get by, not even a nickname.
"I don't know... do you have a suitable name?"
After thinking it over and over, Mu Xiaoyu still couldn't come up with a suitable nickname, so she couldn't help but look at Li Chenxu.
Perhaps she herself didn't realize that at this moment, the only person she subconsciously wanted to rely on was Li Chenxu.
Li Chenxu had obviously been prepared beforehand. Now that Mu Xiaoyu had asked, he only hesitated for a moment before saying, "I haven't thought of a formal name yet, but as for a nickname... what do you think of An'an?"
"An'an?"
"Well, I think it's not important whether our child is successful or not, as long as they are safe and sound, that's enough. What do you think?"
The two of them have endured so many hardships, teetering on the brink of death several times. Few people probably understand the importance of life better than they do.
Whether the children succeed or not in the future, as long as they are safe and sound, that is the best comfort for them.
It was a simple nickname, even quite plain. But no matter how Mu Xiaoyu listened to it, she thought it sounded wonderful, and she found Li Chenxu's gaze increasingly pleasing to the eye.
She secretly thought to herself that, considering the beautiful nickname Li Chenxu had given the child, she would forgive him a little for the time being for the mistakes he had made. If the formal name was good, she might forgive him even more.
So Mu Xiaoyu hummed twice and said calmly, "Not bad, then okay, let's use An'an as your nickname."
If Mu Xiaoyu were to look in the mirror right now, she would know just how hypocritical she is.
She clearly loves the nickname An'an, but she insists on acting like she's nothing special, acting all cute and adorable.
Li Chenxu was pleased with what he saw and couldn't resist gently pinching Mu Xiaoyu's cheek.
Normally, Mu Xiaoyu would have slapped him away long ago, but for some reason this time, not only did she not slap him away, she also let Li Chenxu pinch her face.
How could Li Chenxu not notice the changes in Mu Xiaoyu? He wanted to kiss and hug Mu Xiaoyu again, but considering the future, he restrained his impulse.
It's okay to be patient now. Once Mu Xiaoyu has completely forgiven her and the two of them get back together, they can do whatever they want.
After a simple breakfast, Li Chenxu took Mu Xiaoyu to see An'an.
This was the first time Mu Xiaoyu had come to see An'an since he was born.
Even though it was her own child, her heart started racing and she became increasingly nervous as the child drew closer.
She couldn't help but tighten her grip on Li Chenxu's hand, her throat bobbing nervously as she stammered, "An'an... what does An'an look like? I heard he was really ugly when he first came down here, is he... still not good-looking now?"
Seeing Mu Xiaoyu's nervous expression, Li Chenxu smiled and said with a hint of helplessness and doting, "Didn't I take a video of An'an for you before? Have you forgotten?"
"Oh...right...I didn't forget, it's just that my brain is like it's filled with mush right now, I've forgotten what I said..."
Mu Xiaoyu was so nervous that she didn't feel like she was going to see her own child; it felt like she was taking the college entrance exam.
If he hadn't been afraid that Mu Xiaoyu would hold him accountable, Li Chenxu would have almost laughed at her.
The two had specifically spoken with the hospital nurses before they arrived, so when they got there, the nurses specially brought An'an to the spot closest to the glass window for them to see.
Even through the thick glass, it was enough for them to see An An's appearance clearly.
When An'an was born, her skin was wrinkled and red, and you couldn't tell what she looked like at all. When Song Yin first saw An'an, she was very disgusted.
For several days afterward, she worried that her future child might be as ugly as An'an.
It wasn't until Li Chenxu went to see An'an again and took a video, seeing the changes in An'an, that everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
However, no matter how well a video is filmed, it's not as good as seeing it with your own eyes.
It wasn't until this moment, when Mu Xiaoyu saw An'an through the thick glass, that she truly felt like a mother.
An'an has been born for so many days now. Although she is still very small and looks like she could be broken if you use the slightest force, her skin is fair and especially her eyes, which are like Bodhi seeds, black and bright, so beautiful that you can't take your eyes off her.
More importantly, her eyes look so much like Mu Xiaoyu's.
Even Mu Xiaoyu herself sensed it.
Mu Xiaoyu stared at the child through the glass window, almost unable to look away. She nudged Li Chenxu beside her with her elbow and asked, "Hey, tell me, does An'an look more like you or me?"
This is practically a freebie question; even if Li Chenxu were stupid, he would know how to answer it.
Without any hesitation, he immediately replied, "Of course he looks more like you. Besides, don't they always say that if a boy looks more like his mother, he'll have a good life?"
"Really? Who told you that?"
Mu Xiaoyu was indeed very happy to hear this. She immediately looked at Li Chenxu with anticipation in her eyes.
Li Chenxu's words were just casual remarks; both of them were complete novices in this area. They had mostly learned it in childcare classes, and now that Mu Xiaoyu was asking him where he had heard it, he had no idea.
After a moment's thought, Li Chenxu spoke up: "An aunt who used to work at the Li family said that her son was just like her and later got into the best university in our country."
