Chapter 94 Production

Time flies, and Jiang Yining's belly swelled up like an inflating balloon, her due date drawing ever closer. Xie Shiyan had already moved his office home, and his mother and Jiang's mother stayed by his side every step of the way.

One night, Jiang Yining was awakened from her sleep by a series of regular and increasingly intense uterine contractions, and cold sweat instantly soaked her forehead.

Her movement immediately woke Xie Shiyan, who was sleeping lightly beside her. "Ningning?"

He quickly turned on the bedside lamp and saw his wife's furrowed brows and her hand clutching her stomach; his heart leaped into his throat.

"My stomach...it hurts so much..." Jiang Yining's voice trembled with pain.

Immediately afterwards, a warm liquid gushed out uncontrollably—her water broke.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, Ningning, we'll go to the hospital right away." Xie Shiyan forced himself to remain calm, gently comforting his wife while quickly getting up, dressing, and knocking on his parents' door next door.

Xie's mother and Jiang's mother opened the door almost at the same time.

"Mom, Ningning is about to give birth," Xie Shiyan said urgently.

Jiang's mother was both surprised and anxious: "Isn't it still before the due date? We said we'd go to the hospital to prepare for delivery in a couple of days."

"Twins usually come early, don't panic, everything is ready." Xie's mother, experienced as she was, quickly packed the hospital bag while reassuring her in-laws.

Jiang's mother quickly went into the room to support her daughter. At this moment, the contractions became more and more intense, and Jiang Yining's face turned pale, but she could still walk with difficulty.

Xie Shiyan didn't dare to hug her rashly. He carefully helped her into the car, and they sped off, quickly arriving at the private hospital they had already contacted. A top-notch medical team was already on standby, and the admission procedures were completed with maximum efficiency.

Outside the delivery room, Xie Shiyan paced back and forth anxiously like an ant on a hot pan. He wanted to ask to be present during childbirth, but Jiang Yining firmly refused—she didn't want him to see her "ferocious" appearance.

Looking at her son-in-law's distraught appearance, Jiang's mother felt both sorry for him and amused: "Ayan, sit down and rest for a while. Ningning is in the right position and has a good constitution. It will be quick. You've made me dizzy."

Xie's mother pulled him down to sit. At this moment, where was the ruthless and decisive CEO Xie? He was just an ordinary man who was deeply worried about his wife and children.

Mr. Xie and Mr. Jiang rushed over after receiving the call, joining the waiting group. Mrs. Xie reminded him, "Old man, go back as soon as it's light. Bring the stewed old hen soup, rice, dishes, and brown sugar eggs. Ningning needs to nourish herself properly after giving birth."

Inside the delivery room, Jiang Yining gritted her teeth and pushed again and again under the guidance of the midwife. Sweat soaked her hair, and the pain almost made her collapse. Finally, with a loud cry, the first baby was born safely, and the doctors and nurses quickly took care of the newborn. Immediately afterward, the second baby was also delivered smoothly.

"Congratulations, Mrs. Xie. It's twins, a boy and a girl, both very healthy." The doctor's joyful voice was like heavenly music. Jiang Yining's tense nerves suddenly relaxed, and fatigue and joy swept over her at the same time.

The nurses cleaned and wrapped the two babies before bringing them out of the delivery room. As soon as the door opened, Xie Shiyan rushed forward, his gaze urgently scanning the swaddling clothes: "How is my wife?"

The nurse was amused by his reaction and, suppressing a laugh, replied, "Don't worry, Mr. Xie, Madam is doing well and is currently undergoing follow-up treatment inside. She will be out soon. Please send one family member to the nursery to register."

Mother Xie and Mother Jiang followed happily. Father Xie and Father Jiang also hurried home to fetch the nourishing meal they had prepared. Xie Shiyan glanced briefly at the two wrinkled little ones, then his gaze was fixed on the delivery room door.

Before long, Jiang Yining was wheeled out. Her face was pale, her hair was stuck to her cheeks with sweat, and her hands were red and swollen from the IV drip site due to excessive exertion. She looked exhausted, yet radiated a gentle maternal glow.

Xie Shiyan immediately stepped forward, bent down and planted a deep kiss on her sweaty forehead, his voice hoarse with relief and boundless tenderness: "Wife, you've suffered so much..."

Jiang Yining smiled weakly at him: "Where are the babies?"

"The mothers have gone to the nursery, they're all fine, don't worry."

Hearing that her child was safe, Jiang Yining completely relaxed, her eyelids closed heavily, and she fell into a deep sleep. Xie Shiyan followed the nurse closely, escorting his wife back to the cozy VIP ward.

When Jiang Yining woke up again, she heard the cheerful laughter of her family, which they were deliberately keeping quiet. As soon as she opened her eyes, Xie Shiyan, who had been watching over her bedside, immediately noticed: "Ningning's awake? Are you hungry?"

Upon hearing his question, a strong sense of hunger instantly overwhelmed her. Jiang Yining nodded. Seeing that she was awake, Jiang's mother and Xie's mother gently placed the two babies lying side by side in the crib and quickly brought the warm food to the mobile dining table by the hospital bed.
