The nurse calmly glanced at them and then asked, "Are you all family members of the pregnant woman?"

The three nodded in unison.

Upon seeing this, the nurse handed over the contract: "The pregnant woman and the baby are in very bad condition. The baby is stuck horizontally in the pregnant woman's belly, and a cesarean section is the only option now."

However, after a cesarean section, there is an 80-90% chance that the pregnant woman will experience severe bleeding. Therefore, the doctor has just given a notice that only one of the pregnant woman and the baby can be saved. Now, it's up to you to choose.

Also, the pregnant woman is very weak and cannot withstand too much waiting time, so please hurry.

As soon as the nurse finished speaking, Shi Yueshan and Nan Wenrun couldn't help but exchange a glance, and then both turned their gazes to Nangong Yu.

After all, his wife and children were in the operating room, and this decision was his own to make.

Looking at the contract in his hands, Nangong Yu clenched his fists tightly, the veins on the back of his hands bulging, and his smooth forehead was covered with sweat.

Only one can be saved—the pregnant woman or the child…only one…

Why did this happen? Everything was fine during the day. If he hadn't taken Song Yuli out on his own initiative, would none of this have happened?

After a long while, Nangong Yu looked up at the nurse, his deep eyes filled with bloodshot veins.

"Is it really only possible to choose one?"

The nurse pursed her lips, then nodded emphatically: "Yes, I know this is a very difficult choice, but please decide as soon as possible, because..."

Before the nurse could finish speaking, Nangong Yu interrupted her: "Save the mother!"

The three resounding words stunned both the nurse and Nan Wenrun and his wife.

"Are you sure?"

The nurse asked again.

Nangong Yu took the black pen and signed his name directly at the signature area: "Confirmed, save the adult!"

Baby, I'm sorry, but compared to you, Daddy seems to like Mommy a little more.

The nurse glanced at him, took the contract, and turned to leave: "Okay, I understand."

Just as the operating room doors were closing, Nangong Yu suddenly blocked them.

Nangong Yu looked at the nurse, a pleading look in his deep eyes: "May I go in and stay with her?"

Almost instantly, the nurse's heart softened: "Okay, come with me."

...

Looking at the operating room door closing again, Shi Yueshan sighed heavily.

Nan Wenrun put his arm around her and sat down on a chair next to her, comforting her, "This is A-Yu's own choice, we can't control him."

Shi Yueshan nodded, her eyes red-rimmed: "I know, I'm just a little regretful. We're going to be grandparents in less than a month, but now..."

"well."

Nan Wenrun sighed heavily: "It's all fate. That child is destined to have no connection with our Nan family. There's no way to force it."

Shi Yueshan nodded, then took a deep breath and looked at the operating room with worry: "What I'm most worried about right now is Ali. What if Ali wakes up and finds out that the baby is gone? How will she be able to accept this terrible news?"

Men and women are different.

Men tend to think, "It's okay if I lose this child. I'm still young, and I can have another one." But women are different.

Children are a piece of a woman's flesh. If you forcibly cut off that piece of flesh, what difference is there between that and taking her life?
