It was not his intention to suffer losses together with He Fei and die together. If he did that, he would get nothing.

"Okay, I promise you, I can write you an IOU, but you also have to promise me that you will never use it to threaten me in the future."

Zhou Chen chuckled and said, "You can rest assured about this. As long as Li Muzi and I don't divorce, with her wealth, do you think I would care about these millions?"

Huo Ran thought about it and felt that it made sense. Li Muzi was worth billions and had a group company. His annual revenue was probably tens or even hundreds of millions, so why would he care about a few million?

"Then I'll write the IOU now. When can you give me the money?"

"No rush, let's consult a lawyer first. As for the money, it will take a week."

"Okay, let's go now."

Huo Ran was really anxious, so he dragged Zhou Chen to the law firm.

Zhou Chen got the IOU and Huo Ran left happily.

Zhou Chen didn't care about the IOU. It was just an excuse he used to delay. He never thought of letting Huo Ran go.

People like Huo Ran have no bottom line at all. No matter how wonderful what he says is, he will not believe it.

He didn't take action now just because he wanted to do good deeds for Li Muzi's child, not because he was kind.

Regardless of whether you have faith or not, when your child is about to be born, try not to kill.

In a blink of an eye, a week passed. Zhou Chen was not very happy during this week because his wife had been occupied by Shen Man for a week. This woman could give them couple time during the day, but at night, she insisted on sleeping with Li Muzi.

Li Muzi also dotes on Shen Man, and persuades Zhou Chen in turn, saying that there is a long time to come, and he should be satisfied slowly, etc., which makes Zhou Chen laugh and cry.

This wife is so simple and kind, and it can be seen that she really cares about Shen Man, her best friend.

Zhou Chen also transferred four million to Huo Ran before the final deadline. Although Huo Ran wanted five million, which he also had, he did not want to let Huo Ran get his wish, so he gave him four million.

That night, Zhou Chen was playing chess with Zhou Gong when suddenly there was a rapid knock on the door, followed by Shen Man's scream.

"He Fei, open the door quickly, Muzi has a stomachache, come and take a look."

When Zhou Chen heard this, he suddenly jumped up from the bed. Without even having time to put on his slippers, he rushed over to open the door, then rushed into the master bedroom without caring about Shen Man who was at the door.

In the master bedroom, Li Muzi was sitting on the edge of the bed, holding her stomach.

"Honey, my stomach hurts, it keeps coming back."

Zhou Chen grabbed Li Muzi's hand and put his other hand on her belly to observe.

After a moment, he said solemnly, "It's contractions. This is the prelude to childbirth. Let's go to the hospital."

"Is she about to give birth? Is it too late to go now? Should we call an ambulance?"

Shen Man was trembling as she spoke in panic. When she saw Li Muzi in pain just now, she felt distressed and scared, fearing that something might happen to Li Muzi.

Zhou Chen said, "No need to call an ambulance, let's drive to the hospital. This is just the prelude, and it's not time for birth yet. There's enough time to go to the hospital. You hold Muzi here, and I'll get all the prepared things in the car."

"Okay, okay, hurry up."

Shen Man is usually very opinionated, but when it comes to Li Muzi's affairs, she can't control her brain and can only urge Zhou Chen.

Zhou Chen walked out quickly. He had prepared all his things and put them in the suitcase. Now he only needed to take some important documents with him. He could buy other things when he arrived at the hospital.

In the bedroom, Li Muzi endured the pain, held Shen Man's hands, and whispered comforting words.

"Manman, I'm fine, don't worry."

Shen Man's eyes turned red: "How can it be okay? Look, you are sweating from the pain. It's all my fault. It's useless. Muzi, it's all my fault."

Li Muzi comforted him, "What are you talking about? This has nothing to do with you. How can I blame you? Women have to go through this process when giving birth. I'm really fine."

Although it was painful, she could still endure it because she didn't want to see Shen Man sad and scared.

Before they could say a few words, Zhou Chen walked in again.

"Everything is ready, let's go, Muzi, I'll hold you, Shen Man, I'll leave the things at the door, and you can drag the suitcase and backpack to the car later."

"Okay, I'll get it now."

At this moment, Shen Man was extremely obedient, and Zhou Chen easily picked up Li Muzi in a princess hug.

Zhou Chen had booked the best luxury single room at the hospital a week ago, so he checked in directly after arriving at the hospital.

Zhou Chen is experienced, and just as he judged, Li Muzi was still in pain after arriving at the hospital, but she had not yet reached the stage of giving birth, so further observation and waiting were needed.

He stayed in the hospital for another day and night. During this day and night, Li Muzi would grab the bedside railings tightly every once in a while because of the pain, and would cry out in pain when he couldn't bear it anymore.

Zhou Chen and Shen Man were both comforting him. Zhou Chen was fine, he knew the principle and understood that this was a necessary process.

But it was not the same for Shen Man. Li Muzi would cry when she was in extreme pain, but she shed several times more tears than Li Muzi. If you didn’t know, you would think she was about to give birth.

Every time she saw Li Muzi in unbearable pain, she pulled Zhou Chen to find a doctor for a caesarean section, but was stopped by Li Muzi.

Although Li Muzi usually appears to be cold and quiet, in fact, she is a very opinionated woman with great willpower and patience. When it comes to having children, she is calmer and more patient than most women.

She had looked up the differences between natural birth and caesarean section, so she would rather endure the pain than have surgery. No matter how advanced the technology is, surgery will still have some impact on the body.

After a day and a night of pain, it was finally time for delivery. Li Muzi strongly requested Shen Man to accompany her. Zhou Chen fulfilled her wish and let Shen Man enter the delivery room to accompany her, while he waited quietly outside the delivery room.

Because he had been taking care of Li Muzi during her pregnancy and her nutrition was balanced, the delivery process went smoothly. She was born in less than half an hour after insertion, and then there was another round of busy work.

A few hours later, in the ward, Zhou Chen carefully fed Li Muzi tea.

After so much time, although Li Muzi didn't stand up, his strength had recovered a lot and he could eat and drink water.

Next to them was a mobile crib for the baby. Shen Man was lying on the bed, staring at the baby inside, and this process had been going on for a long time.

"It's amazing, she's so small, look at her hands, they're only this big, and her feet are so cute, but her face is a little ugly, she doesn't look like Muzi at all."

Zhou Chen put down the bowl and said, "What do you know? Babies are born like this. They will look better in a few days. Look at her red skin, which means her skin will be whiter in the future."

Shen Man was in a good mood, so she didn't care about Zhou Chen's criticism of her at all.

"That's what you say, but this little thing is really funny. I just held her while getting an injection and she scared me to death when she cried. Her voice was so shrill."

Li Muzi smiled and said, "Maybe all children are like this, Manman, you haven't slept much for a whole day and night. There is a bed for resting next to you, you can take a nap."

Shen Man waved her hand and said, "No, I'm very energetic now and can't sleep at all. I'll go to sleep later."

She was really excited now. Li Muzi was safe and sound, and the baby was very interesting. She really didn't feel like sleeping at all.

"By the way, the baby is born. Have you chosen a name?"

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 1061: Li Muzi is moved, and Huo Ran is about to die

"I can't keep calling her baby, baby. If you have picked a name, I will call her by it. If you haven't picked one, do you want me to help you pick one?"

At the end of the story, Shen Man's eyes lit up, her face full of anticipation and eagerness to try. It was so interesting to help name the baby.

Li Muzi didn't answer, but just looked at Zhou Chen.

They had actually discussed the matter of naming. Their previous plan was to wait and see whether it was a boy or a girl after the birth, and then decide whether to name the baby themselves or pay someone to name it.

Zhou Chen asked: "Wife, do you think we should do it ourselves or ask someone else to do it?"

Li Muzi replied: "I think both are fine. You decide."

She now has a very good relationship with Zhou Chen, and is willing to let Zhou Chen make the decision on everything, and she will be a competent wife.

Shen Man said anxiously, "What are you guys pushing and shoving for? If you don't want to take it, let me do it."

Li Muzi found it funny and said, "Then what name would you choose?"

"I, I'll take, he, he..."

Shen Man hesitated for a long time before finally coming up with a name: "He Manman."

Zhou Chen and Li Muzi were both stunned. Did you choose this name just to put your own name on it?

Shen Man also felt that her name was very awkward, but she still argued: "I think Man Man is good."

Li Muzi shook her head. Even though she had a very good relationship with Shen Man, she certainly couldn't be so casual when it came to her daughter's name.

"husband."

Zhou Chen pondered and said, "You don't have to follow my surname He. Follow your surname Li."

"what?"

"Ok?"

Li Muzi and Shen Man looked at Zhou Chen in astonishment at the same time, as if they couldn't believe what they heard.

"Husband, you said the baby has the same surname as me, Li?"

"Yes, I'll take your last name."

Li Muzi couldn't understand: "Why? The baby should have your last name, how can it have mine?"

Zhou Chen smiled and said, "It's up to the parents to decide what surname the baby will take. I'm not the heir to a big family, so there's no need for her to have my surname or yours. And I hope our daughter will grow up to be as pretty and cute as you."

"But..." Li Muzi wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Zhou Chen.

"Wife, it really doesn't matter whose last name she has. She is our daughter anyway. I am not afraid of what others say about me behind my back, so you don't have to worry about it either."

He understood what Li Muzi was worried about. Normally, children take the woman's surname, and in most cases, the child is a live-in son-in-law. Li Muzi loved him very much and didn't want him to be criticized.

Li Muzi was very touched when she saw that Zhou Chen seemed to have really made up his mind: "Do you really want to take my last name?"

"Ah."

"Husband, you are so good to me."

"It's just a surname. Look how moved you are. Since I took your surname, you have to pass the family property to our daughter in the future." Zhou Chen joked.

Li Muzi gave Zhou Chen a coquettish look. She was very touched, but all her emotion was immediately diluted by these words.

Shen Man looked at Zhou Chen with a puzzled look. She didn't expect Zhou Chen to let the baby take Li Muzi's surname. Although gender equality is emphasized now, in fact, 99% of children take their father's surname.

Judging from this point alone, Zhou Chen is indeed very fond of Li Muzi.

Zhou Chen gave the right to name the child to Li Muzi, who then began to discuss it with Shen Man. They had a lot of fun discussing it and laughed excitedly from time to time.

Finally, the name registered for my daughter was Li Miao, a very simple and ordinary name.

Originally, Li Muzi and Shen Man named the woman Li Miaomiao. When the name was confirmed, Zhou Chen couldn't help but hold his forehead with his hand. The names these two women chose were really too unique. They were so lacking in water. So in the end, he decided to remove the "Miao" and named her Li Miao.

…………

It was February, and Li Muzi, who had stayed in the hospital for eight days, was finally able to be discharged.

Although Zhou Chen could take care of Li Muzi himself, he still followed Li Muzi's wishes and hired a confinement nanny, offering her a high salary and taking care of her around the clock for a month.

As for who took care of Li Miao the most diligently after returning home, it was neither Li Muzi, the mother, nor the confinement nanny, but Shen Man.

Although Shen Man is usually noisy, she is extremely fond of her newborn goddaughter. Especially since Li Miao is getting more and more beautiful, she holds her in her arms all day long and can't let go.

Because taking care of the children during the day was tiring, Zhou Chen finally got his wife back and could sleep in the same room and bed with Li Muzi at night.

Li Miao, whose nickname is Miaomiao, is not easy to take care of. On the contrary, she is quite noisy. Even at night, she would cry several times. Zhou Chen is okay, but Li Muzi really can't stand it. She can't sleep well at night and needs to make up for the sleep during the day.

Fortunately, there are enough people in their family, including a nanny, a confinement nanny, and Shen Man, so Zhou Chen doesn't have to do anything at all.

Miaomiao had a little jaundice, so Li Muzi and Shen Man held Miaomiao on the balcony to bask in the sun, and they were having a lot of fun.

"Jingle Bell……"

The cell phone rang, Zhou Chen picked up the phone and looked at it, then immediately frowned.

"Hey, Huo Ran."

That’s right, the person who called him was Huo Ran again. Since Huo Ran got the money, he immediately bought a house and invited Zhou Chen to come over and take a look. Zhou Chen turned down the invitation several times.

He called him again today, and he thought Huo Ran was calling for this matter again.

"He Fei, I'm at the gate of your community, and the security guard at the gate won't let my car in. Can you come and pick me up?"

When Zhou Chen heard that Huo Ran was here, his brows furrowed even deeper: "Why are you here?"

"I heard you had a daughter. I calculated the time and you should be back from the hospital, so I came to see you and congratulate you and share your happiness. Don't say anything more and come pick me up as soon as possible."

Zhou Chen was helpless. Since they had already come to his door, he definitely couldn't chase them away, so he asked Huo Ran to give the phone to the security guard. He spoke to the security guard and he let them in.

"Wife, Huo Ran is here. He said he came to see our daughter. I'll go to the door to pick him up."

"Oh, go ahead."

Li Muzi didn't have the same worries as Zhou Chen. She would only feel happy when others came to see her children.
