Peninsula: I, a chaebol! I will never follow hidden rules.

"Oh my! Look at this grandson, he looks exactly like Zhixuan!"

"Nonsense! She looks exactly like me!"

"Okay, okay, I look just like you."

At 3:30 p.m., in a VIP ward at Lee's Seoul Hospital, Lee Jung-hyun and Kim Bo-young took turns holding their newborn grandson.

Finally, they have a grandson! The old couple were so happy they were practically snotting from their noses!
Wait, that's not right! Aren't premature babies supposed to stay in incubators?

Indeed, Bae Joo-hyun's premature baby is still in the incubator, and will be observed for at least a week before being taken out of the incubator to ensure there are no problems.

Where did the child that Li Zhengxian and his wife are holding come from?
A: Yes, she was born to Jessica Jung.

Bae Joo-hyun gave birth prematurely. Lee Chi-heon did not deliberately hide this news from Jung Soo-yeon, so Jung Soo-yeon knew about it before Bae Joo-hyun's baby was even born.

Jessica Jung has always believed that the child in her womb is the eldest son of the third generation of the Lee family. Although she cannot marry Lee Chi-hin, her son is the eldest grandson of the Lee family.

Since her son has the word "eldest" in his name, he must have received the Li family's favor earlier than Li Zhixuan's other children. If her son is ambitious enough, he may well be able to inherit the Li family's legacy in the future.

But to her utter surprise, Bae Joo-hyun, who was about twenty days more pregnant than her, went into premature labor! The eldest grandson of the Lee family in her belly suddenly became the second grandson!

There was absolutely no warning beforehand, this was so sudden!

Jessica Jung was both anxious and angry, but for the sake of her child's health and safety, she could only comfort herself and accept this reality.

But some things can't be tolerated just like that. How could the eldest grandson suddenly become the second oldest?

Can the second child receive the same favor as the eldest?
As the old saying goes: the youngest son and the eldest grandson are the old lady's lifeblood!
Among the three Li brothers, Li Zhixuan was the most favored. Why? Because he was the youngest son.

Therefore, the old saying above is absolutely true!

Originally, Jessica Jung's son should have been the eldest grandson, the most favored eldest grandson, but now the eldest grandson has become Irene Bae's son!

What will happen to your son if he is not favored?
Jessica Jung is in a hurry!

The more I think about it, the more anxious I get!
As a result, just as Bae Joo-hyun returned to her hospital room to recuperate, Lee Chi-hyun received news that Jessica Jung was also about to give birth.

At 11:34 a.m., Bae Joo-hyun's son was born.

At 2:11 PM, Jessica Jung's son was born.

They were only a little over two hours apart.

It's only a little over two hours!

Jessica Jung is so angry! My baby! If those contractions this morning hadn't been false, you would have been born this morning, and you would be the eldest grandson of the Lee family!

Is this really such a big deal? Does being favored or not have any absolute relation to being the eldest grandson?
However, whether it is a pregnant woman or a new mother, her hormone levels are different from those of a normal person, which makes her prone to getting stuck in a rut or even postpartum depression.

Li Zhixuan was worried that Zheng Xiuyan would overthink things, so he stayed with her from the moment she entered the delivery room.

Just then, Bae Joo-hyun fell asleep from exhaustion after giving birth, so Lee Chi-hsuan didn't have to run between two places and could focus on taking care of Jung Soo-yeon.

But how easy is it to get over a mental hurdle?

After giving birth, Jessica Jung, exhausted, fell asleep with tears in her eyes.

But when she woke up and found Li Zhengxian and his wife on the balcony, hugging her son and laughing like idiots, she instantly felt relieved!
Yes! Eileen's son needs to stay in an incubator! He'll need to stay for at least a week! But my son doesn't! This means my son will spend much more time with his grandparents than Eileen's son!
Thinking this way, Jessica Jung immediately felt less upset. She wanted to see her son, but seeing how much Lee Jung-hyun and his wife looked at him, she felt embarrassed and didn't want to disturb them. So, she held back and turned to ask her sister, "Where is he?"

Krystal peeled a banana and fed it to Jessica, then replied, "Irene unnie's son has a problem; he's been taken to the special ward."

Jessica Jung's heart tightened immediately: "What happened to Irene's son?!"

Speaking of which, Jessica Jung and Irene Bae are now rivals, but as a new mother herself, she can't imagine how she would feel if her son had a problem right now.

"I didn't hear you clearly, but it shouldn't be a big problem."

Upon hearing this, Zheng's mother, who had been gazing longingly at the child in Jin Baoying's arms, turned to her eldest daughter and explained, "Eileen's son has jaundice because he was born prematurely, but it's not serious."

Jaundice is quite common in newborns and infants. As long as it is treated in time, it is not a serious illness. Most cases will improve with more sun exposure.

Jessica Jung breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, otherwise Irene would have been worried to death."

At this moment, Lee Jung-hyun and his wife noticed that Jung Soo-yeon had woken up, so they immediately carried the child over from the balcony and placed the child next to Jung Soo-yeon's pillow so that she could watch the child.

Looking at the little one she had carried for ten months, Jessica Jung's nose tingled and she burst into tears: "Why...why is he so ugly?"

It had a few stray hairs on its head, a small nose, small eyes, a small mouth, and red, wrinkled skin.

When Jessica Jung saw what her son looked like, she burst into tears from the shock.

Seeing this, the people around them didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Jung Soo-jung quickly wiped away her sister's tears, while Kim Bo-young hurriedly comforted her, saying, "Oh, don't cry, don't cry. All babies are like this right after they are born. Eileen's son has a big head and a small body, and he looks even uglier than yours. It's all because he was soaking in amniotic fluid. He'll be fine in a couple of days."

Is Eileen's son uglier?
To be fair, Kim Bo-young is quite good at comforting people. Upon hearing that Irene's son was even uglier, Jessica Jung instantly felt better. Looking at her own son, he didn't seem so bad after all; he did resemble the scumbag boyfriend a little bit.

Suddenly, Jessica Jung looked at her sleeping son and remembered something. Her heart tightened, and she quickly put her finger under the child's nose.

Seeing this, Jung Soo-jung was stunned. But Lee Jung-hyun and his wife, along with Jung's mother, all smiled in unison. Because, as people who had been through similar experiences, they had all done the same thing.

The main reason is that babies sleep so soundly when they fall asleep, and the rise and fall of their chests when they breathe is not as obvious as that of adults, which makes parents more prone to overthinking.

After feeling her son's breathing, Jessica Jung breathed a sigh of relief and then tried to sit up, supporting her somewhat weak body.

Seeing this, Krystal Jung and Kim Bo-young quickly came over to help her up. Kim Bo-young even said with concern, "If there's anything wrong, just lie down and talk. Are you comfortable sitting up?"

"It's okay, I don't feel bad."

Jessica Jung smiled and shook her head, then leaned weakly against the headboard. She glanced at the child beside her, then looked at Lee Jung-hyun and his wife and asked, "Uncle and Aunt, what's the name you've given our child?"

"Uh……"

Kim Bo-young wanted to say something, but Lee Jung-hyun hadn't told her, so she could only look at him. Lee Jung-hyun smiled and said to Jung Soo-yeon, "Don't call us uncle and aunt anymore, just call us Mom and Dad in private."

He can call us Mom and Dad now! Even though it was in private, it's still much better than before!

The Jung family was overjoyed, and Jessica Jung excitedly replied immediately, "Yes! Mom and Dad!"

"Hey!" "Hey!"

Mr. and Mrs. Li Zhengxian happily agreed.

Although Jessica Jung is not considered a daughter-in-law of the Lee family by either etiquette or legal principles, she gave birth to a son for the Lee family, giving the third generation an heir, which is a great contribution to the Lee family, which has few descendants.

It's just a matter of allowing her to call Li Zhengxian and his wife "Mom and Dad" in private. She doesn't have to actually give anything in return. It's a reward for her and makes her happy. Why not do it?

Only then did Li Zhengxian bring up the matter of the child's name.

"I've already thought of a name for the baby. Let's talk about it tonight after you and Joo-hyun have rested."

"it is good."

Although Jessica Jung's son was born ten days earlier than his due date, he was still considered full-term, weighing 3.15 kilograms, or six pounds and three ounces, which is a normal weight, and the baby is very healthy.

Bae Joo-hyun's son was born a full month early, weighing only 2.61 kilograms (5.22 ounces). While this is considered a normal weight, it wasn't healthy. His bilirubin metabolism was immature, leading to jaundice. He needed phototherapy, specifically blue light therapy, in an incubator.

Moreover, compared to Jessica Jung's son who sleeps after eating, Irene Bae's son cries after sleeping.

This was Bae Joo-hyun's son, whom she had carried for nine months. Seeing her son crying so heartbreakingly, Bae Joo-hyun's heart was breaking.

Despite being very weak after giving birth, she completely disregarded her own health and stayed with her son in the hospital room after learning that he had jaundice.

Faced with this situation, Li Zhixuan became even more anxious. His son had jaundice; although it wasn't serious, it was still an illness, and he was worried and anxious.

Li Zhixuan is worried about his wife's health because she hasn't been resting since giving birth.

Jessica Jung also just gave birth, and he couldn't neglect the mother and child.

Being a scumbag is easy, but being a conscientious, good scumbag is exhausting. Physically, it's not tiring, but mentally it is.

Fortunately, newborns sleep for more than ten hours a day, and when they are awake, they can't really cry non-stop, otherwise it would really exhaust the parents.

After dinner, Bae Joo-hyun breastfed her son again. Because the doctor said that breastfeeding would help the child recover sooner, she insisted on breastfeeding every two or three hours.

After feeding the baby and putting her to sleep, Bae Joo-hyun was carried to a wheelchair by Lee Chi-heon and then pushed to the living room.

In the living room, Lee Jung-hyun and his wife, Bae's parents, Jung's mother, Jung Soo-yeon, and Jung Soo-jung were all present.

Although both of them had just given birth, Jessica Jung even gave birth more than two hours later than Irene Bae, and had less rest time.

But Bae Joo-hyun's son was sick, and as a mother, she certainly couldn't bear to be too far away from him, so Jessica Jung took the initiative to come over.

Bae Joo-hyun was still grateful for this.

After exchanging pleasantries, the meeting to announce the child's name officially began.

Li Zhengxian stood next to a whiteboard on a mobile stand that had been prepared in advance, and then said to everyone, "Ever since Zhixuan called me and said he wanted to name his son, I've been flipping through dictionaries for several days and finally came up with a few good names for the children. Their generation is the 'Xi' generation, and the eldest's name is Li Xiheng."

As he spoke, Li Zhengxian took a marker and wrote the three Chinese characters 【李熙珩】 on the whiteboard. Then he circled the character 【珩】 and explained, “【珩】 refers to an ancient jade artifact, symbolizing a gentleman's noble character and gentle, jade-like virtue. Paired with the character 【熙】, it implies that the child has both a bright future and noble character. Zhixuan, Zhuxuan, are you satisfied with this name?”

The two immediately nodded: "Satisfied, it's a very nice name."

Actually, Bae Joo-hyun's heart wasn't in this. She didn't care what name she gave the child; she just hoped the child would get better soon.

Li Zhengxian then wrote a second name on the whiteboard: "The second child's name is [Li Xiyi]. [Yi] originally means the name of a mountain, often referring to Yishan Mountain, giving people a sense of calm and perseverance. The name 'Xiyi' is a hope that the child will have a resilient character and a life full of light and vitality."

"Thank you, Dad, this is a good name."

Jessica Jung was very satisfied, not for any other reason than that the name was personally chosen by Lee Jung-hyun.

After discussing the name, Kim Bo-young sensed that Bae Joo-hyun wasn't quite right, so she went to her side and comforted her, saying, "You don't need to worry too much about the baby. It's just jaundice, nothing serious. She'll recover in a few days."

As for children crying, some children just love to cry. If they cry, let them cry. There's no need to feel sorry for them. What do little kids know? The fact that they can cry at least means they are still healthy and probably don't have any major problems.

You just had a baby, so you should rest and not overthink things. What if you get sick because you don't get enough rest? Will Zhixuan be able to take care of you? Won't your parents be worried?"

Bae Joo-hyun nodded quickly: "Yes, I understand, I will be careful."

"Can I tell you something?"

"What is it?" Everyone looked at Li Zhixuan.

"Now that we've decided on formal names, shouldn't we start giving the children nicknames?"

As the father of two children, he can't choose their formal names, but surely he can choose their nicknames?

Li Zhengxian understood his son's thoughts and asked, "What are your thoughts? Tell me."

Li Zhixuan took Pei Zhuxuan's hand and said softly, "Our eldest child was born prematurely and also developed jaundice. Let's name him Kang Kang, hoping he will grow up healthy and safe, without any illness or disaster. What do you think?"

"Mmm! Kang Kang is a good name."

Bae Joo-hyun just wants her son to be healthy, so she immediately agreed.

Jessica Jung quickly asked, "Where's the second one?"

"Our second child is quiet and well-behaved, so let's name him Xiaowu. He's good at both literature and martial arts, and he'll become a high-ranking official. I hope he'll have a great future."

"A chancellor and prime minister? That's great!" (End of Chapter)
