You're awake.
Bai Le nodded, his throat was incredibly thirsty, so his gaze fell on the apple in his hand.
Xi Yan noticed it too, so he smiled faintly and handed the apple to him.
"Dad! You're finally awake!" Mu Mu stood on tiptoe, but because she was too short to see Bai Le's face clearly, she struggled to support herself on her tiptoes, her face turning red from holding her breath.
When Bai Le saw him, he couldn't help but smile and reached out to pat his head.
Have you seen your sister?
Mu Mu nodded, looking a little aggrieved, and said, "My little sister has been sleeping the whole time. She won't even respond when I try to play with her."
Bai Le said, "Your little sister can play with you when she's older, not now."
"Okay!" Mu Mu nodded obediently.
Bai Le was incredibly thirsty. He took a bite of an apple, and the sweet juice slightly relieved his discomfort. Xi Yan, Xi Yan reached for the rows of peeled apples on the bedside table, picked one up at random, and cut it into small pieces so that Bai Le could eat it easily.
Bai Le stared at the rows of apples on the bedside table, paused for a moment, then realized what was happening and looked up at Xi Yan with an incredulous expression. "You peeled all of these?"
Xi Yan looked unusually uncomfortable and awkwardly changed the subject. "I'll let them know you're awake."
Before he could get up, Bai Le quickly tugged at his sleeve, "Are you nervous?!"
Xi Yan slightly taken aback and avoided his gaze.
Bai Lele was a little Xi Yan. The image of Xi Yan, who was restless and anxious, could only peel an apple with a blank expression, trying to keep her hands busy so as not to let her mind wander.
Because Xi Yan appeared calm and unhurried when he woke up, he assumed that Xi Yan was truly calm and composed and not worried about him at all, and he felt a little disappointed.
"Just say you're worried about me," Bai Le said with a smile, patting his shoulder. "Don't hide it; it's not something to be ashamed of."
Xi Yan looked down at him, seemingly lost in thought.
"Let me see my daughter." Bai Le was in a great mood and didn't care what he thought.
Although the baby was just born, he was not put into an incubator because he was in good health and was sleeping in a small crib next to it.
The baby remained quiet, his little hands clenched tightly, his eyes closed, looking like he was sleeping soundly.
Bai Le took her and carefully held her in his arms. The baby's formal name hadn't been decided yet, but he already had an idea for a nickname.
How about naming the baby Xixi?
"Okay." Xi Yan nodded slowly.
Mu Mu stood on tiptoe, looking at the baby sleeping sweetly in Bai Le, and gently poked her cheek with her finger. A childish voice slowly rang out.
"Xixi, you're my little sister now. Your brother will protect you."
Bai Le couldn't help but grin when he heard this. He found it somewhat amusing to see the young boy, with his serious expression, mimicking an adult's solemn demeanor.
"Your father and father will protect you too." He couldn't help but reach out and pinch Mu Mu's cheek, finding it soft and tender to the touch.
With her cheeks being pinched, Mu Mu could only mumble, "... Brother Xiaoxu also said he would protect me."
Bai Le was taken aback, then glanced at Xi Yan and chuckled.
After recuperating in the hospital for several weeks, Bai Le was finally allowed to be discharged. During this time, members of the Bai family and Xi Families took turns visiting him. Xiaozhouzi and Wu Hua also brought gifts, which Bai Le accepted without hesitation.
Xixi's formal name was chosen by Bai Le himself, Xi Jinxi. When asked if the name Xi Yan sounded good, he naturally agreed that it did.
Xixi and Mu Mu have different personalities. When Xixi cries, it's heartbreaking and hard to soothe her. Whenever this happens, Xi Yan picks her up and walks around the room, gently patting the baby's back to comfort her.
To stop her younger sister from crying, Mu Mu laid out all her toys, saying she would let her play with them so her sister wouldn't cry.
Everyone thought it wouldn't work, but to everyone's surprise, Xixi held the teddy bear's hand tightly, and her crying gradually stopped.
Bai Le and Xi Yan exchanged a glance and both involuntarily breathed a sigh of relief.

Chapter 59
Bai Le rested at home for several weeks before Xi Yan agreed to let him go to the company. It had been almost a year since he had gone to work, and Bai Le actually found it somewhat refreshing.
However, he brought Mu Mu with him when he went to the company, because he and Xi Yan were going to take him to see the kindergarten after work.
"Hello President Bai!"
"President Bai, it's been a long time! Congratulations!"
People around him were greeting him. In the elevator, Bai Le even ran into Ye Feifei. She was dressed more and more elegantly now, having completely shed her previous naivety, and exuding the charm of a mature woman in every gesture.
After so long, Ye Feifei greeted him first, and Bai Le smiled and nodded back.
"Is this your son? He's so cute." Ye Feifei couldn't help but reach out and pinch his cheek.
Mu Mu didn't flinch, smiling as she let him pinch her, sweetly calling out, "Big sister."
Ye Feifei paused for a moment, then her smile widened as she said to Bai Le, "Looks like he's a very sweet talker."
