The Empress Kneels in Her Palace to Admit Her Mistakes After Slaying Her Ways in the Female-Oriented

But Yu Zhen hasn't made up her mind yet.

He then said firmly, "It's not enough for you to take my child's surname; your father must also take my child's surname."

"Okay, no problem at all." Guo Zhou's tone was even more firm than Yu Zhen's. He said, "From now on, my father and I will both take your child's surname."

Yu Zhen still had concerns, asking, "Then how will you support the child in the future?"

"With your meager income?"

"Hmph, my child is different."

"His surname is Shen!"

"They need to be pampered."

Guo Zhou continued firmly, "It's alright. Although I don't have enough money, my father still has retirement savings. I'll give you my father's retirement savings."

"I will definitely raise my child to be a noble young master."

Yu Zhen frowned and asked in return, "Your father's retirement money?"

"no……"

"Your dad's retirement money?"

"Where is your mother's retirement money?"

Guo Zhou agreed without hesitation: "You can have it too!"

"Yu Zhen, you can put your mind at ease."

"There's my dad's retirement money."

"I have my mother's retirement money."

"The money difference certainly won't be too much."

"If that's still not enough, I'll steal other people's fish to feed you."

Yu Zhen was caught in a huge dilemma because the conditions Guo Zhou offered were extremely tempting to her at the moment!

With Guo Zhou supporting him, he at least wouldn't have to worry about making a living and could properly nurse the child in his womb, thus giving birth to the child.

Otherwise, given her current predicament, she most likely won't have the resources to raise the child. Plus, since the child has no official status, it's easy for others to gossip about it, and she might not be able to keep the child!

So Yu Zhen said, "Alright, since you're so sincere, then... I'll let you raise my child!"

"good!"

Guo Zhou looked delighted.

That very day, they used their connections and spent money to move Yu Zhen to a better place to live. It was a courtyard house, not very big, but still quite exquisite, with all sorts of furnishings inside, which perfectly suited the aesthetic of a woman like Yu Zhen who pursued refinement.

"not bad!"

Yu Zhen also gave it high praise.

This small courtyard was just the beginning of Guo Zhou's actions. In the days that followed, Guo Zhou took even better care of Yu Zhen, attending to her in every possible way.

In a situation where only the two of them are together, all of Yu Zhen's previous precautions against Guo Zhou, such as not allowing him to hold hands or have any intimate contact, have become invalid, whether consciously or unconsciously.

The two became much more intimate.

Guo Zhou took advantage of Yu Zhen's psychological weakness and the baby's stable position to carry out his attack.

However, as Yu Zhen's pregnancy progressed, the work on "Bright Sword" could no longer continue.

Guo Zhou then devoted all his energy to taking care of Yu Zhen, letting her live a life where everything was done for her.

On the day of delivery, Guo Zhou invited the best midwife in the area, while he waited anxiously outside the door.

After all, in this era, having a child is like stepping into the gates of hell with one foot in the grave, with the possibility of dying at any moment... and the child is also very likely to die young.

As a man, Guo Zhou was also unable to do much.

He could only pace back and forth at the door, anxiously rubbing his hands.

The midwife inside the room encouraged Yu Zhen with her experience.

"Put more force into it! Put in a little more force!"

"The baby is almost here!"

"Miss Yu, keep up the good work! Look how good your husband is to you. He's been working so hard for you and the children, his eyes are bloodshot. Today he even went to great lengths to bring me here from so far away. I don't know how much effort he put in."

"You have to work harder, just for your husband's sake!"

……

Yu Zhen was in the delivery room and couldn't see Guo Zhou's face, but she could clearly sense Guo Zhou's care for her from the midwife's words.

I felt a surge of strength within me.

No matter what, with Guo Zhou protecting her, as long as she gives birth to the child today and both of them are safe and sound, she won't have to worry about raising the child in the future, as Guo Zhou's parents will provide for their retirement.

If she raises the child for three to five years, and the child gets a little older, she can then take the child to find the child's real father.

Although all she knew was that the child's biological father's surname was Shen.

I don't know their name, what they do, or what their family does.

But his handsome face, extraordinary temperament, and extremely generous behavior all indicate that the child's father is no ordinary person.

Previously, the child's father was willing to abandon her.

But, now that she has a child, how can the child's biological father not want her?

If I don't want her, can I at least not want the child?

Thinking of all this, Yu Zhen felt more courageous and worked even harder. After wave of effort, the child was finally born!

A loud "Wow!" rang out, startling the sky.

The midwife exclaimed excitedly, "Madam Yu, it's a little boy!"

"real?"

"Yes, look!"

The midwife handed the baby to Yu Zhen, who then played with the child while she went out to pour out the hot water that was stained with blood.

As soon as he pushed open the door, Guo Zhou grabbed his sleeve.

"W-what happened?"

"Congratulations!" The midwife's smile remained unchanged: "Young Master Guo, both mother and child are safe and sound."

"Hahaha!"

"Hey, Mr. Guo, just be happy, but don't laugh too loudly. Your wife just gave birth and needs to rest now."

"Hahahaha!"

"No, Young Master Guo, please keep your voice down."

"Hahahahahahahahaha!"

Midwife: "..."

He sighed and thought to himself that he was probably overjoyed because his beautiful wife had given birth to a big, healthy boy.

That's normal. After all, these days, it's not easy to find a wife in Yunjing. It's only natural that he would be overjoyed to be able to marry such a beautiful wife and have a healthy baby boy!

Can……

That's not right!

"I haven't even told Young Master Guo yet that it's a big, chubby boy."

"Is he a little too happy?"

So the midwife tentatively asked, "Young Master Guo..."

"Hahahahahahahahahahahaha!"

Midwife: "..."

Forget it, let's wait until this young master Guo calms down a bit before talking about it.

He personally poured out the dirty water, and when he returned, he saw that the tense and anxious look on Guo Zhou's face had completely disappeared, leaving him refreshed.

and……

It looks like they're about to leave!

The midwife was unsure what was wrong with Guo Zhou, so she could only rely on her experience and said with a smile, "Young Master Guo, please wait here for a moment."

"After I tidy up inside, I'll bring the young master out for you to see..."

After saying that, the midwife emphasized, "Young Master Guo, Madam Yu has given birth to a little prince. From now on, your Guo family will have an heir."

"Aren't you excited?"

Are you happy?

To the midwife's surprise, Guo Zhou's expression remained unchanged upon hearing the news; in fact, even his earlier excitement had faded.

Only...

relax!

"relax?"

The midwife had never seen a new father have such an expression before!

Moreover... as soon as this expression appeared, Guo Zhou turned around and walked out.

The midwife was even more confused: "No, Young Master Guo, where are you going?"

"Push Pai Gow!"
