Chapter 226
When Xia Ruoan was hurriedly pushed into the delivery room, on the other side of the hospital, Zhou Ling'er's condition had reached a life-or-death moment. The doctors were trying their best to rescue her, but the outcome seemed to have been doomed - there was no way to save her.
Mu Shen walked out of the ward and slowly turned to Zhou Ling'er who was dying on the hospital bed.
He exchanged a glance with Ouyang beside him. Although there was no verbal exchange between the two, the moment their eyes met seemed to convey thousands of words.
"There is not much time left..." Mu Shen lowered his voice and spoke softly to Ouyang before leaving the ward.
This sentence hit Ouyang's heart like a heavy hammer. He tried hard to restrain the tears that were about to burst out and nodded heavily: "Okay, I will always be here with her."
Mu Shen turned and walked out of the ward, and saw Zhou's parents who were waiting anxiously outside.
He walked slowly to them, his lips moved slightly, and finally uttered only three words: "I'm sorry."
Zhou's parents supported each other, their faces full of grief and helplessness.
However, they still shook their heads gently and said in a hoarse and trembling voice: "Don't say that, child. We are very grateful that you can save our Ling'er some pain in these last days."
"You've had a hard time these days."
Hearing this, Mu Shen felt a pang of pain in his heart. He gritted his teeth and forced a smile: "Thank you for your understanding. This is my duty."
After saying this, he once again took a deep look at Zhou's parents and Zhou Ling'er who was lying on the hospital bed dying, then turned around silently and left this heartbreaking place with heavy steps.
This time, Mu Shen did not enter the operating room to participate in the surgery in person as he had done in the past. Instead, he chose to stand silently in the family waiting area, anxiously waiting for Ruoan and the children to come out from behind the closed door.
Time passed by minute by minute, and every second seemed like a year to Mu Shen.
At this moment, Lin Cai and others who got the news also rushed to the hospital one after another.
Lin Cai was seen walking hurriedly with a panicked look, and he and Ouyang Jin, who came with him, were supporting each other. Both of them looked very nervous.
"What happened? How long has he been in there? How is An An's condition now?" Lin Cai asked Mu Shen anxiously while panting.
At this moment, his hands and feet were weak, and he was almost unable to stand steadily. Ouyang Jin, who was standing beside him, was also pale, and his lips were trembling slightly: "Yes, brother, what is the situation inside?"
Mu Shen frowned, quickly glanced at the two friends in front of him, and then replied softly: "It has been half an hour since he went in. Ruoan is in good condition now."
Then, he set his sights on Lin Cai and Ouyang Jin, and asked in confusion, "What's going on with you two? Especially you, Ouyang Jin, why are you so pale?"
After saying that, Mu Shen stretched out his right hand without hesitation and gently placed it on Ouyang Jin's forehead, trying to find out if he had a fever.
However, before Ouyang Jin could open his mouth to explain, he heard Mu Shen say in a cold tone: "If you are sick, stay away!"
"What if the child gets infected by you when he comes out?" These words were like a bucket of cold water poured on Ouyang Jin's heart, causing his mouth to twitch and he secretly groaned in his heart.
"I'm really not sick! I'm just scared! We were driving Ou Lincai all the way, and the speed was ridiculous."
"What's even worse is that he mistook the accelerator for the brake when he encountered two traffic lights. Fortunately, he didn't encounter other cars each time."
"Otherwise, I would probably be lying on the operating table right now!" Ouyang Jin said with lingering fear. Thinking back to the experience just now, he still felt a little scared.
After hearing this, Xia Lin angrily reached out and slapped Lin Cai on the back, and sternly taught him a lesson: "How many times have I told you that you must concentrate and be extremely careful when driving!"
"I'm lucky to have survived this time, but what about next time? Can I always be so lucky?" When he said this, Xia Lin's eyes were full of worry and concern.
Then, Xia Lin added: "Next time if you feel that you are emotionally unstable or unable to stay calm, then quickly find a designated driver to help you. Don't be stubborn and drive on the road by yourself. Do you understand?"
Facing his father's stern rebuke, Lin Cai nodded repeatedly and said with a hint of luck: "Dad, I know I was wrong. This time I was really too worried about Ruo'an's condition, so I was a little flustered."
Indeed, Lin Cai felt very fortunate when he thought back on it.
After all, the road he was driving on was in the suburbs, where there were relatively few vehicles. If such a mistake had occurred in a busy urban area, the consequences would have been disastrous.
After arriving in the city, he didn't dare to drive anymore, and even Ouyang Jin was the same.
In the end, Ouyang Jin called a bodyguard to drive the car and took everyone to the hospital safely.
They knew very well that under such circumstances they must not take any chances or take risks.
It would be fine if you only get hurt, but if you accidentally hurt an innocent passerby, that would be a real sin!
"Alright, alright, stop arguing! That's enough. After all, they are acting so impulsively and rashly because they are worried about Ruo'an."
"But, Lin Cai, you did something wrong this time. If one of you gets hurt, or if you accidentally hurt others, the consequences will be disastrous!"
Zhong Yanyan looked at these children who had made mistakes but realized their mistakes with gentle eyes, turned to her husband and signaled him to speak less.
Then, she looked at Lin Cai seriously and warned him, "There will never be a next time. Do you understand?"
Lin Cai nodded quickly, indicating that he would definitely correct the mistake and make a guarantee.
At this moment, the doctor's assistant who was in charge of taking care of Zhou Ling'er hurried over.
He looked solemn, walked quickly to Mu Shen, and said in a low voice, "Dean Mu, the situation is not optimistic. I'm afraid Ms. Zhou can't hold on any longer."
After hearing the news, Mu Shen did not show much surprise on his face, as if he was mentally prepared for it.
He frowned slightly, thinking to himself that he had estimated that Zhou Ling'er would die tomorrow.
However, when the others present heard this, they were all shocked and found it difficult to accept this sudden change for a while.
Everyone cast their worried eyes towards Xia Ruoan in the operating room, praying silently in their hearts that everything would go smoothly and safely.
Zhong Yanyan and the others had red eyes and tears welled up in their eyes.
Zhong Yanyan was heard mumbling to herself in tears: "That poor child said before that he wanted to see Ruoan's baby being born..."
Having said this, she could no longer suppress her inner sadness, and tears rolled down her cheeks like a dam breaking.
Seeing this, Xia Lin patted her shoulder gently, trying to give her some comfort, but at this moment, any words seemed so pale and powerless.
Everyone was actually prepared for all of this, but who could have expected that it would happen so coincidentally at the critical moment when Ruo An was giving birth to a baby?
Mu Shen looked at his parents solemnly and said softly, "Mom and Dad, don't worry, Ruo'an shouldn't have any major problems. I'll go over there to check the situation."
As he spoke, his eyes were firm and concerned.
After all, the doctor who was responsible for performing the operation on Ruoan was chosen by Mu Shen after careful consideration and careful selection, and Mu Shen had confidence in his medical skills.
Xia Lin nodded slightly to show his agreement, and responded: "Okay, then you go quickly and come back soon, Ruo'an is here with us."
There was also worry in her eyes.
"Please keep an eye on Ouyang. I'm worried." Xia Lin looked at Mu Shen and said.
"good."
At the same time, Leng Zexi was waiting anxiously outside the operating room.
Time passed minute by minute, and after about half an hour, a nurse was finally seen coming out.
Leng Zexi rushed forward in an instant, shouting loudly and impatiently: "We must save the master!"
His voice was so loud that not only did it startle the nurse in front of him, but even his family members standing behind him couldn't help but feel helpless and amused.
At this time, Zhong Yanyan hurriedly stepped forward, took Leng Zexi's arm, and explained softly: "Zexi, don't be so nervous, Ruoan had a caesarean section, and her physical fitness has always been good, so she will definitely be fine."
Although she comforted Leng Zexi in this way, Zhong Yanyan was actually very relieved in her heart.
Because judging from Leng Zexi's performance at this moment, even in the face of the upcoming three new lives, he still did not neglect the safety of his precious daughter Ruoan at all. Such a son-in-law can indeed be called a good man chosen from thousands!
The nurse knew that he was also concerned about the mother. After all, he put the pregnant woman first among his three children, which showed that he truly loved his wife.
"I've watched too much of you on TV. My Ruoan and several other kids are doing well. Nurse, when will my sister and my three nephews come out?" Lin Cai looked at the nurse and asked.
The Leng family was relieved to see the nurse's calmness. They thought Ruoan and the child should be fine.
"I came out here to tell you that the children have been born. They are three little masters. Wait a minute, who will come with me to take the children to the incubator?"
"Because it's a multiple birth, with three premature babies, they have to be put in an incubator first. We've checked and there's nothing wrong with the babies, they're just a little thin. But they just need to be taken good care of after they're discharged from the hospital." The nurse looked at them and said.
