After that, Dr. Jiang was depressed for a while, and his personality became much colder. Everyone said that he was hit hard and never looked for another partner, throwing himself into his work.

They all say he hasn't forgotten his ex-fiancée, because he maintained contact with her family even after her death, and would visit them during holidays.

It was because of his attitude that Xu's parents gradually emerged from the pain of losing their daughter.

Later, Xu's mother became pregnant again, and they all believed that their daughter had returned to their side, so despite her poor health, she decided to give birth.

Because of her poor health, Xu's mother spent almost the entire pregnancy in the hospital, and Dr. Jiang would come to take care of her every few days.

It can be said that after losing their eldest daughter, Xu's parents treated him directly as their own son.

Everyone who knows her praises Dr. Jiang.

Su He was also somewhat surprised to hear this. No wonder she was having children at such an advanced age; it turned out she had experienced the pain of losing her daughter!

Su He felt a pang of sympathy and hoped that the arrival of this child would help them emerge from their shadows.

However, she really admired Dr. Jiang; such a loyal and affectionate person is truly rare!

After gossiping, the second cousin and his wife didn't stay long. They left when Grandma Su brought dinner.

Su He originally wanted them to eat together, but the two of them refused, saying they would come to see her again tomorrow and then left. Su He was so quick to react that she didn't even have time to react.

After dinner, Grandma Su wanted to stay overnight, but Su He refused, as she couldn't bear to see her stay up all night at her age.

Finally, Lin Jingyan persuaded her to go back.

Lin Jingyan stayed overnight to keep watch over her. Although there were two other beds in the ward, he didn't go to sleep there. Instead, he leaned against Su He's bedside.

Su He tried to persuade him, but he wouldn't listen; he just couldn't rest easy.

She had no choice but to leave it at that for now.

The other middle-aged man, however, sat with us for a while before going to lie down on another bed, looking quite experienced.

However, in the middle of the night, Su He's stomach started hurting again, and this time, the pain didn't subside as it used to; instead, it came in waves and lasted continuously.

Su He tried to bear it, but in the end she couldn't help but cry out in pain.

Lin Jingyan, who was beside her, woke up as soon as she spoke.

"What's wrong?"

Su He gritted her teeth and said, "My stomach hurts."

Lin Jingyan was startled when he saw this, and hurriedly got up, opened the door, and went out to find a doctor. His movements were so loud that they woke up the person in the next bed.

However, Su He couldn't afford to apologize at this moment; she was in too much pain to speak.

Fortunately, the doctor arrived quickly, but remained calm after examining the patient.

"She's close to giving birth, but it's still early stage, so there's still a long way to go. Let's try to fall asleep first, otherwise I definitely won't have any energy tomorrow."

He then left.

Lin Jingyan became extremely anxious upon hearing this.

Holding Su He's hand, he was so nervous that he didn't know what to say.

Su He felt that his hands were sweaty, and she tried to comfort him, saying, "It's okay, just listen to the doctor. It seems that you won't be able to give birth anytime soon."

At this moment, the middle-aged pregnant woman in the next bed also said, "Yes, young man, don't worry. This is your wife's first pregnancy, so it will definitely be slow. She has only just started to have contractions, so it will probably take several more hours."

Lin Jingyan relaxed a little after hearing this. Seeing that Su He's face was covered in sweat from the pain, he quickly got up and went out to fetch water to wipe her face.
