Chapter 149 I Won't Abandon You
Lu Wanning ignored her and was terrifyingly calm at this moment.
She had already imagined the current scene countless times in her mind, so when it really happened, it was like the dust had settled, and she felt that it was just as it was.
She poured out the pills from the small porcelain bottle and stuffed three of them into Aunt An's mouth. Perhaps because she was afraid of hearing the so-called words of protecting the child from her mouth, Lu Wanning didn't even dare to talk to her.
He just said in a deep voice: "Don't be afraid, aunt, everything will be fine."
Seeing her like this, the midwife felt uneasy and ran out to ask Mr. Chen for his opinion, and advised him to keep the baby.
However, she didn't know what was happening outside, and Lu Wanning didn't have time to care. She only knew that no one came in to ask her to protect the child.
Aunt An took the medicine and gained some strength. She listened to Lu Wanning's words and tried to push harder and hold her breath.
Perhaps sensing her panic, Aunt An grabbed Lu Wanning's hand.
She forced a smile and said, "Don't be afraid. I won't see your child being born yet. I'll be fine."
Less than one-third of the thrills inside can be seen from outside.
But Qi Muchao's face still turned pale, and even his legs were shaking slightly.
I only knew that giving birth was a terrifying thing, but I had never felt it in my own shoes.
If Lu Wanning had not been pregnant, perhaps he would still be standing here and sighing.
But now, the basins of blood being brought out and the hoarse and weak screams inside only made him feel panic-stricken.
It was as if the person lying on the bed and screaming had turned into Lu Wanning.
Just thinking about this made me feel as if my mouth and nose were ruthlessly blocked by a sudden surge of water, making it impossible to breathe.
The waves of panic that came over him made him feel as if the blood in his body was rushing to his brain.
But he could only stand there like a puppet.
The midwife came out and asked Master Chen whether to save the eldest or the youngest. Master Chen stamped his feet anxiously, but finally made up his mind, "Save the youngest, save the youngest!"
Chen Wenjian is now unknown where he is, or whether he is dead or alive. The child in Aunt An's belly is his only hope.
As for Aunt An, he might pretend to be sad for a while, but there are many women in the world. With the Chen family's current wealth, it is nothing more than marrying a young and beautiful wife.
However, just as he finished speaking, Master Chen was kicked to the ground by Qi Muchao. The man's sinister expression made Master Chen completely afraid to stand up. He held his head and trembled, "Save the king, save the king!"
The midwife was held back by Changqing to prevent her from going in and disturbing their Crown Prince's Consort.
The second and third wives on the side tried their best to suppress the ecstasy in their hearts.
On the surface, she paced anxiously, praying for the safety of Aunt An and the baby in her womb, but in fact, with her hands clasped together, she was thinking in her heart that both mother and child were dead.
If Aunt An's unborn baby cannot be born, then they will have hope for the future.
Time passed slowly, and when the sky gradually brightened, a faint cry was finally heard from inside.
Along with the midwife who was helping inside, she shouted, "It's born, it's born!"
Master Chen slumped to the ground and dragged the midwife out, impatiently asking, "A son or a daughter?"
The midwife was overjoyed, "Whatever Master Chen thought in his heart, this will come naturally."
Qi Muzhao frowned slightly and stood at the door waiting.
Lu Wanning was still pregnant for such a long time. He simply couldn't imagine how she had managed to hold on for so long.
But there was nothing he could do except stand outside and wait.
The newborn baby was wrinkled and not really cute. Aunt An had suffered so much because of him, and Lu Wanning's fear had not yet dissipated, so she really couldn't feel any pity for him.
The midwife beside her cleaned the child, wrapped him up, and took him out to show Mr. Chen.
Aunt An looked at her with the little strength she had left. She didn't even bother to ask if it was a boy or a girl. She only had time to squeeze Lu Wanning's fingers and said, "See, Auntie said she won't abandon you."
Lu Wanning couldn't hold it in any longer, her eyes were blocked by tears and she couldn't see the scene in front of her clearly.
Aunt An was out of strength and fell into a deep sleep with her eyes closed.
She walked to the door, and the moment she opened it, Qi Muchao hugged her in his arms.
Finally, he breathed a sigh of relief and closed his eyes.
Aunt An's condition was not stable yet. Qi Muchao was a man who could take care of the overall situation. Even though he couldn't wait to take Lu Wanning back to Prince Qi's Mansion to have a good rest, he had to take care of the remaining matters for her.
Finally, she was allowed to have a good rest in the room arranged by Mr. Chen.
It was already afternoon when Lu Wanning woke up. As soon as she opened her eyes, she thought of Aunt An and immediately sat up from the bed and was about to go over to her.
Someone held her shoulders, and when she looked up, she saw Qi Muchao's slightly haggard face.
Lu Wanning was a little surprised, "You didn't sleep for a while?"
"I can't sleep."
Qi Muchao rubbed his face. Whenever he closed his eyes, he could see the basins of blood being brought out, which made his heart palpitate and he couldn't sleep at all.
Only by looking at Lu Wanning would that uneasy and suffocating feeling disappear a little.
Lu Wanning touched his cheek, realizing that perhaps he was frightened by today's scene. She pulled the corner of her lip and chuckled, "Don't be afraid, it's just an accident."
But this was an accident he could not bear.
Qi Muchao looked at her slightly bulging belly and had never felt so regretful before.
After washing her face, Lu Wanning went to Aunt An's room.
Perhaps Mr. Chen had a change of heart and stayed here for the first time in his life.
Looking at the baby in the cradle, her face was full of smiles. When she saw Lu Wanning coming over, she thanked her with a smile on her face.
But Lu Wanning had already heard Hu Yan's remarks about protecting the child, and there was only coldness in her eyes when she looked at him.
Lu Wanning thought calmly about how to help her aunt get hold of the Chen family's assets bit by bit.
But there is no need to rush now.
Mr. Chen also noticed that she disliked him, and he stood up awkwardly, giving the room to her, leaving her and Aunt An alone.
The child was sleeping soundly and Aunt An had not woken up yet, so Lu Wanning's eyes fell on the chubby child.
Of course, she knew that she couldn't blame all the pain her aunt had experienced on this child, which was obviously a bit absurd.
After all, it was Aunt An who wanted to have a baby, and it was she who helped her aunt to adjust her body so that she could get pregnant.
What does it have to do with this child?
Lu Wanning looked at his chubby face and couldn't help but reach out and pinch it.
Who knew that this pinch was like turning on a switch, and the child started crying.
Lu Wanning was startled and quickly picked him up. Aunt An hadn't woken up yet, but if he continued crying, he would soon wake her up.
Lu Wanning hurriedly carried him to the door. Unfortunately, she had been busy all night yesterday and had no strength in her hands. She quickly called Qi Muchao in, put the child in his arms, and said seriously, "Hurry up and stop him from crying."
Qi Muchao: "..."
