Chapter 1043: Hurry up and take them away.
Before the police arrived, Huang Xiaochuan curiously went to check on the little guy. By then, the little guy had already started drinking milk and had stopped crying. He was sucking the milk vigorously, while his two little feet were waving around everywhere.
It looked like the baby wasn't even a month old yet. Huang Xiaochuan shook his head inwardly. What a tragedy! To abandon such a young child. There's just no way to describe some young people these days.
While the little one was drinking milk, Huang Xiaochuan searched her body and gave her a full check-up, mainly to see if she had left anything behind or if she had any injuries.
Aside from the clothes on his body, he had nothing else, but he seemed quite healthy. However, we'll have to take him to the hospital for a full check-up to find out the exact situation.
The 200 ml of milk was quickly finished, and the little one started hiccuping again. Huang Xiaochuan, being experienced, gently picked her up and patted her back lightly with one hand to help her release the gas.
"Pfft!" A fart came out quickly, along with the little guy's poop.
Huang Ruiying, who was originally standing to the side looking at the little guy with affection, immediately covered her nose and ran away when she smelled the odor.
"Sister Song, go buy some diapers," Huang Xiaochuan loudly instructed the housekeeper.
He then glared at his daughter, Huang Ruiying, who was standing some distance away: "Find a clean towel and a basin, and bring a basin of warm water."
Huang Xiaochuan grumbled inwardly, thinking that this was really asking for trouble. He hadn't done this kind of work for years, and now he was back to washing bottoms and changing diapers. It was all his precious daughter's fault for getting him into this situation.
Just as Huang Xiaochuan was busy washing the little one's bottom with his two children, the police from the local police station arrived.
Huang Xiaochuan wrapped the little guy in a clean, large towel before he could even talk to the police.
After understanding the general situation, the police looked at the Huang family's situation. The older officer discussed with Huang Xiaochuan, "Mr. Huang, I'd like to discuss something with you. We need to investigate this child first to see if we can find the person who abandoned her. However, as you know, our police station's conditions are limited, and we can't take good care of her. How about this, the child stays at your house for a while, and you can take care of her for a period of time. Once we find the person who abandoned her, we'll come back to pick her up."
He then added, "Good deeds will be rewarded!"
Huang Xiaochuan looked at the little girl and thought the policeman's words made sense, but he still asked, "What if we can't find the person who abandoned her?"
"Then we can contact the welfare home and have them come and take the child. They know how to take care of this child." The older policeman seemed to have experience with this kind of thing and was very skilled at handling it.
With things having come to this, Huang Xiaochuan had no choice but to agree: "Then leave it at my house for now!"
"Thank you! Thank you! I'm so grateful!" The older policeman shook hands with Huang Xiaochuan with a grateful expression. He didn't expect the richest man in Asia to be so easy to talk to.
After seeing the police off, Huang Xiaochuan looked at the sleeping little guy, smiled wryly, and said, "Let's keep him for a few days then!"
He immediately arranged for Gao Song to find a postpartum nanny, and then had the nanny prepare a place for the baby and the postpartum nanny to stay. Before the postpartum nanny arrived, the nannies took turns looking after the baby.
After everything was arranged, Huang Xiaochuan finally had time to sit down and have a cup of tea.
At this moment, Huang Ruiying leaned closer to him and asked, "Dad, if the police can't find the person who abandoned the child, will the baby be taken away by an orphanage?"
"Yes," Huang Xiaochuan answered his daughter's question succinctly.
But Huang Ruiying's next words startled him so much that he almost got scalded by the boiling tea.
"If you can't find one, then stay here. I happen to need a little sister." Huang Ruiying looked at her father expectantly.
Huang Xiaochuan almost fainted from anger. He said angrily, "Go away. Stop thinking about such unrealistic things. Your mother will definitely hold you accountable when she gets back. You'd better think about how to explain this to her."
The arrival of a baby completely disrupted the Huang family's life. The entire afternoon, the father, son (and daughter), and the nanny were busy taking care of the little one.
It wasn't until 6:30 that Yu Xiang returned and saw this scene.
At that moment, Huang Xiaochuan was carrying the little one around the room, trying to coax him to sleep. Huang Ruiying, that girl, only had a three-minute attention span, and by now she couldn't stand it anymore and went upstairs to her own room.
Yu Xiang initially thought she was seeing things, so she quickly rubbed her eyes.
As expected, the man was indeed holding a baby. Yu Xiang immediately thought of many possibilities. The first one was that the man had blatantly brought back the child he had given birth to outside. Did he think I was invisible?
In an instant, all sorts of thoughts raced through my mind, and I even considered divorce.

When Huang Xiaochuan saw Yu Xiang return, it was like seeing a savior; he quickly picked up the little one and went to greet her.
"Oh, you're finally back! Hold him for a bit, let me rest." He said, placing the little guy in Yu Xiang's hands, and Yu Xiang took him without thinking.
Yu Xiang asked coldly, "What's going on?"
Huang Xiaochuan could tell from Yu Xiang's expression that she had misunderstood, and in his heart, he couldn't help but bring up his daughter again and scold her a few more times.
He wasn't going to take the blame for this, so he quickly told Yu Xiang about the child's origins. This infuriated Yu Xiang, who looked up and shouted upstairs, "Xiao Duo, come down here!"
"Mom, did you call me?" Soon, Huang Ruiying appeared by the railing on the second floor.
"Get down here right now."
When Huang Ruiying saw that her mother was about to lose her temper, she quickly sought help from her father, but unfortunately, her father looked away and wouldn't look at her.
Well, it seems there's no hope. The little girl will have to face her mother's wrath alone.
Yu Xiang handed the baby back to the man, then grabbed her daughter Huang Ruiying's ear.
"You come here right now, are you bored out of your mind?"
Yu Xiang then began disciplining her daughter, while Huang Xiaochuan held the little one and gloated on the side. Serves him right!
After reprimanding Huang Ruiying, the little one in Huang Xiaochuan's arms fell asleep, and the family still had to face this matter.
At this point, Yu Xiang started complaining to the man again: "A few kind words from the police and you're completely out of your mind! Such a big thing, why didn't you call me?"
Huang Xiaochuan tried to persuade Yu Xiang, "It's only a few days. Besides, what the police said makes sense. If the child goes to the police station, who will take care of her? She'll be held by this person one minute and that person the next, she won't eat or sleep well. She's still a little life, and we've been connected to her family for a while. Let's take care of her for a few days!"
The little guy was held in Yu Xiang's arms again, and Yu Xiang couldn't help but soften when she saw him.
"Then keep them for a few days. When you have time, keep reminding them to send someone to pick them up."
"knew!"
