Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 840

Chapter 840: Chapter 840: A Needle

Lin Zhiyi and Gong Chen made their way through the crowd and approached Liu He and the child.

Liu He looked at them and said, "Zhiyi, you came just in time. The baby needs a diaper change, and I have to do it. Could you help entertain the guests?"

Lin Zhiyi saw that she was flustered, and the nanny had gone to the restroom.

She reached out and said, "Let me help you. There are a few uncles outside who can manage."

"Okay, okay."

Liu He handed the child to Lin Zhiyi and turned to lead them to the lounge.

Lin Zhiyi held the baby, feeling the weight, and opened the swaddle only to find a big golden lock inside.

She laughed and said, "Is this from the old master?"

Liu He was grinning from ear to ear.

"Yes." She carefully took off the golden lock, "I didn’t expect the old master to prepare this in advance. It means he has accepted this child, and I am truly content."

Lin Zhiyi weighed it in her hand. "It’s really heavy." 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

But... Xingxing didn’t get one.

Liu He glanced at her and took out a box from her own bag.

"This is for Xingxing. No matter what happens, our Xingxing will have everything."

Lin Zhiyi opened the box and found a newly made golden lock inside, more than twice the size of the previous one.

"Mom, you didn’t have to do this..."

"It’s necessary. Xingxing is my granddaughter. We can’t let her feel neglected just because there’s a little one now."

"Thank you, Mom."

Lin Zhiyi held the child in one arm and hugged Liu He with the other.

Liu He patted her, "Okay, quickly change his diaper, it’s getting stinky."

"I’ll do it, I’m skilled at this."

Lin Zhiyi placed the child on the diaper table, then took out wet wipes, and deliberately poured a little warm water on them.

"This way, the baby won’t feel cold."

Liu He assisted on the side, "It must have been hard taking care of Xingxing alone before, and I didn’t help you."

"Mom, that’s all in the past." Lin Zhiyi skillfully changed the baby’s diaper and reminded her, "By the way, Mom, did the nanny remind you of any precautions?"

"What precautions?" Liu He asked curiously.

"At an occasion like this, never take your eyes off the baby for even a second, and don’t let anyone else hold him, no matter how close they are."

"Why? Everyone here today is family and friends; they’ve been around many times. What’s the problem? Especially since the old master has accepted the child, who would dare to cause trouble?" Liu He said confidently.

"Mom, people’s minds can be unpredictable. After Xingxing’s one-month-old celebration, I invited the neighbors over, and the lady next door specifically reminded me not to let others hold or handle the baby excessively. She said people get jealous, and sometimes you don’t even know what they’re jealous of until something happens." Lin Zhiyi said.

"Isn’t that overkill?"

"Seriously, that lady also said at a one-month celebration, a relative’s child was pressed on the fontanelle by someone. Although rescued in time, the child was left with cerebral palsy. The police later caught the person, and she said it was because others praised her child for being clever, while her own child had just failed an exam."

"What? How absurd is that reasoning? But in our kind of occasion, how could such a fool exist?"

Liu He shook her head.

After all, everyone present was from prominent families, and wouldn’t stoop to such indecent acts.

Lin Zhiyi thought Liu He was being too naive.

She dressed the baby, holding him to coax him to sleep.

And cautioned, "Mom, it’s better to be cautious. Today might be family and friends, but don’t forget how they used to treat you in the past. Now you have a happy family, a son, and the old master’s acknowledgment. It’s different now."

Liu He, thinking about the past, felt her heart tighten suddenly.

Back then, even as the Second Madam of the Gong Family, someone like Song Wanqiu dared to kidnap and humiliate her and Shi Yan behind her back.

If it were now, the mother and daughter from the Song Family would need her consent to even sit at the same table.

Liu He was still spooked, but found it hard to believe anyone would harm such a small child.

"Zhiyi, we will be cautious, but don’t overreact."

Liu He agreed but didn’t take it seriously.
