He couldn't ask someone else to take his place.
So he asked them to wake him if he started falling asleep.
For some reason, they apologized instead.
"What's wrong?" Qiong Xing asked.
"You just gave birth. You must be exhausted. Normally we'd tell you to rest as much as possible, but…"
"It's alright. I knew this before deciding to give birth. I won't say I want to stop now just because it's hard."
If he were going to say something like that, he would never have chosen to give birth in the first place.
He appreciated their concern, but when he simply asked them to help him instead, they finally nodded.
"More importantly, what should we do about her name? It would be sad if we keep calling her 'the baby' forever."
When Qiong Xing asked if anyone had a good name idea, everyone simply told him that he should be the one to decide.
"Is it really okay if I decide?" Qiong Xing asked.
"You should be the one to choose," Leander said.
