Operating room —

After changing his clothes, Nangong Yu followed the nurse into the cesarean section room.

Seeing Song Yuli's pale face, yet his continued forbearance, Nangong Yu felt an overwhelming pang of heartache.

He walked over quickly, squatted down next to Song Yuli, and leaned down to kiss her lips: "If it hurts, just scream."

Upon suddenly hearing Nangong Yu's voice, Song Yuli opened his eyes in disbelief.

Looking into those familiar, deep eyes before her, Song Yuli's eyes instantly welled up with tears: "Husband..."

Nangong Yu's eyes also began to redden: "I'm sorry, I'm late."

Song Yuli shook her head, looking at Nangong Yu with a very aggrieved expression: "Husband, I feel so uncomfortable, my stomach hurts so much, and I feel like the baby in my belly isn't moving anymore, will something happen to him?"

Nangong Yu couldn't bear to tell her the cruel truth, so he had to lie: "No, no, I won't let anything happen to you, I promise."

As soon as he finished speaking, the doctor who delivered the baby came over with a syringe: "Now we're going to administer the anesthesia, so relax."

Song Yuli nodded, took a deep breath, and tried to relax his body.

After the anesthesia was administered, Song Yuli felt that her body had completely lost all sensation, and she panicked again.

"Honey, honey, I'm scared."

Nangong Yu held Song Yuli's hands tightly and comforted him, "It's okay, it's okay, I'm here, it's alright."

...

Time passed by, and looking at the serious expressions of the doctors and nurses around him, Song Yuli's heart started racing, and he even felt a little short of breath.

Upon noticing this, the doctor quickly said, "Nurse, nurse, where's the oxygen? Bring the oxygen mask and put it on the pregnant woman."

After putting on the oxygen mask, Song Yuli's complexion gradually returned to normal.

Seeing this, Nangong Yu, who was standing beside him, couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

He felt that he was utterly useless now except for comforting Song Yuli, and Nangong Yu really hated himself right now.

"Don't worry, it's okay."

Song Yuli nodded weakly.

...

More than an hour passed, and just when Song Yuli was about to collapse, the doctor beside him finally showed a joyful expression.

"The baby is out, that's wonderful."

"Mother and child are safe. Mother and child are safe."

Immediately afterwards, a loud cry rang out. Connected by blood, Song Yuli breathed a sigh of relief and then closed his eyes tightly.

...

When Song Yuli woke up again, it was already dark outside.

She frowned and subconsciously moved her arm: "Water...water..."

Nangong Yu, who had been by Song Yuli's side, suddenly woke up.

"Honey, you're finally awake!?"

Nangong Yu looked at Song Yuli with great surprise and delight.

After hearing Song Yuli's murmur clearly, Nangong Yu released her, quickly poured her a glass of water, and then considerately fed it to her.

Her throat, soothed by the water, felt much better. Looking at the handsome face before her, which looked much more haggard, her heart ached.

Reaching out to touch Nangong Yu's slightly prickly chin, she said guiltily, "I'm sorry for making you worry."

Nangong Yu shook his head: "It's alright, I'm relieved that you're alright."

Three days have passed since Song Yuli gave birth. Heaven knows how desperate he felt when he saw Song Yuli close her eyes right before his eyes.

At that moment, he truly believed that Song Yuli had abandoned him and their child. If the doctor hadn't spoken up in time, he might have already taken the child and gone with her.
