Xia Daiyun watched from the side as Tong Qiao endured the pain. Her heart ached for her, but she comforted her at the same time. She wiped her sweat with a towel from time to time. "Qiao 'er, if you're in pain, just shout a few times. You'll feel better if you shout."
Tong Qiao's face was pale, and her smile was weak. "Mom, I can hold on."
"Okay, okay, okay. Bear with it a little longer. You'll feel better after you give birth." Xia Daiyun's eyes were red.
Tong Qiao nodded.
Time ticked by, and every second was a torment to him.
When the warmth rushed out of her body, Tong Qiao felt relaxed. Then, the baby's loud cries could be heard from the delivery room. She couldn't help but smile, but she cursed in her heart. Lu Jinshen, you jerk. I've given birth to the child.
The doctor smiled and said, "Congratulations, Mrs. Lu. It's a daughter. You're crying so loudly. You'll definitely be successful in the future."
Xia Daiyun smiled and said, "Thank you. It's been hard on you."
The doctor smiled and shook her head. "It's not hard. It's hard on Mrs. Lu. She's very brave."
Other people said that they would be weak and tired after giving birth, but Tong Qiao was so excited that she couldn't sleep. She couldn't bear to close her eyes as she looked at the chubby baby. The softest part of her heart was filled with the baby.
Lu Meihua was carrying the baby and talking to Tong Wenbin. It was the first time Tong Qiao saw such a bright smile on Lu Meihua's face.
Xia Daiyun went to the doctor to ask about some precautions when taking care of a pregnant woman.
Auntie Lin said that the food outside was unhygienic and that she would prepare food for her when she went back.
Everyone was there, except for the child's father, who had yet to appear.
Lu Jinshen appeared at the door of the ward at 8: 30 am. It had been about an hour since Tong Qiao gave birth.
Lu Meihua knew that Tong Qiao was angry when she saw Lu Jinshen but turned around and pretended not to see him. She got up and walked to the door. "Come out with me."
"Mom, I'll go take a look at Qiao 'er first," Lu Jinshen said as he walked into the room.
Lu Meihua grabbed his arm in time and frowned slightly. "Come out with me first."
Lu Jinshen greeted Tong Wenbin and Xia Daiyun in the ward, then turned and left with Lu Meihua.
At the end of the corridor, Lu Meihua frowned. "What's wrong with you? What could be more important than Qiao 'er giving birth? "
Lu Jinshen's slender fingers went to his collar and undid a button. His face was covered in dust, and there was fatigue in his eyes. He lowered his voice and said, "Yanqing is having surgery today."
Lu Meihua's expression immediately turned serious. "You mean to remove the blood from the brain …"
Lu Jinshen used his gaze to stop Lu Meihua from continuing. "This is a serious matter. Yanqing has already sealed off the news."
Lu Meihua asked worriedly, "Then … is he alright?"
"When I came back, the surgery was already completed, but he was still unconscious."
Lu Meihua nodded. She thought of Tong Wenbin and Xia Daiyun in the ward and said, "I told your in-laws that you were out on a mission. Qiao 'er didn't expose you either, probably because she didn't want her parents to worry."
"Thank you, Mom." Lu Jinshen curled his lips slightly.
Lu Meihua patted Lu Jinshen's shoulder. "Go and coax Qiao 'er yourself."
"Okay."
"She just gave birth and is very weak. Explain properly. Don't make her angry."
"Okay."
"Don't talk back when you're scolding, and don't fight back when you're hit."
Lu Jinshen curled his lips. "Are you my mom or not?"
"Qiao 'er is a good lady, much better than Sheng Yufei. I've decided that she's my daughter-in-law. If you lose her, I won't let you off."
"Got it."
Lu Jinshen turned and was about to leave when Lu Meihua stopped him. "Don't you want to know if Qiao 'er gave birth to a son or a daughter?"
Lu Jinshen turned back and asked with a smile, "Daughter?"
Lu Meihua replied, "Son."
Lu Jinshen frowned slightly.
"Why? Are you unhappy that she gave birth to a son?" Lu Meihua asked with a smile.
"Qiao 'er likes a daughter."
Lu Meihua's smile deepened. "It's a daughter."
"Is it really a daughter?"
"Yeah."
Lu Jinshen was overjoyed and strode toward the ward. Lu Meihua followed him.
When they arrived at the ward, Lu Meihua said to Tong Wenbin and Xia Daiyun, "In-laws, Jinshen is back. Shall we go out for a meal? Let's drink some wine to celebrate. "
"Sure. It's a joyous occasion. We should drink some wine." Tong Wenbin was in a good mood and didn't regard himself as an outsider. He stood up and walked toward the door.
Xia Daiyun instructed Tong Qiao to rest well before leaving the ward.
The ward instantly quietened down. Only Tong Qiao and Lu Jinshen were left. The child was brought to the nursery by the nurse.
"Qiao 'er," Lu Jinshen called out.
Tong Qiao turned around with her back facing Lu Jinshen.
Lu Jinshen walked around the end of the bed and stood opposite Tong Qiao.
Tong Qiao turned around again.
Lu Jinshen walked around the end of the bed again and stood opposite Tong Qiao. When Tong Qiao wanted to turn around again, he leaned over and held her shoulders. "You just gave birth. Don't move around."
Tong Qiao looked down slightly with an indifferent expression. She said softly, "Get out."
"Qiao 'er, listen to me. I didn't mean to lie to you …"
"You lied to me. I don't want to hear your excuses. Get out. I want to sleep."
"Qiao 'er …"
"Get out!" Tong Qiao raised her voice impatiently.
Lu Jinshen stared at Tong Qiao silently. Tong Qiao kept her eyes lowered and didn't look at Lu Jinshen in the eye.
Lu Jinshen wasn't afraid that Tong Qiao would kick up a fuss with him, but he was afraid that Tong Qiao would ignore him like she was now. It was as if he was a stranger to her.
While the two of them were in a stalemate, Auntie Lin pushed the door open and came in with a thermos. When she saw Lu Jinshen leaning over the bed, she didn't know if she should go in.
Lu Jinshen heard the sound and let go of Tong Qiao. He turned around. "Auntie Lin."
Auntie Lin saw that she had been discovered and went in with the thermos. "Qiao 'er hasn't eaten dinner yet. I cooked porridge and two light dishes for her."
Lu Jinshen reached out and took the thermos from Auntie Lin. "Let me do it."
"Okay, I'll leave this to you. I'll go take a look at the child." Auntie Lin left to give the two of them some space.
Lu Jinshen took out the porridge and dishes from the thermos and placed them on the bedside table. He then leaned over to help Tong Qiao up.
Tong Qiao pulled the blanket up over her head and wrapped herself in it.
Lu Jinshen pulled the blanket but didn't manage to. He sat down on the edge of the bed and stayed silent for a few seconds before saying, "I went to Fan City today. Yanqing did a craniotomy to remove the blood clot in his brain …"
Tong Qiao suddenly lifted the blanket. "What did you say?"
Lu Jinshen knew that Tong Qiao had heard it, but he asked because he was too shocked and in disbelief. He got up and wanted to help Tong Qiao up.
"Don't touch me."
"Lean against me first. I'll tell you later." Lu Jinshen helped Tong Qiao up again. She didn't say anything and obediently cooperated.
Lu Jinshen slowly helped Tong Qiao up and stuffed two pillows behind her back.
After he was done, he sat down on the edge of the bed with the porridge in his hands. He scooped a spoonful and took a small bite. It was neither too cold nor too hot. It was just right. He then passed it to Tong Qiao.
Tong Qiao turned her head away. "Tell me what happened first."
"Tell me while you eat. Otherwise, the porridge will get cold."
"Tell me what happened first." Tong Qiao was anxious.
