Chapter 1072 Stomach Aches
Qin Ce knew that Qiao Xing was completely terrified and at a loss.
He suddenly felt a pang of regret.
The moment he entered the room and saw Qiao Xing, he understood Qiao Xing's meaning.
That's why he deliberately delayed Qin Fei's time and tried to distract her.
Qin Ce knew that Qiao Xing wouldn't let anything happen to him and that he had a way to prevent it, but he forgot how impactful it would be to watch a living person die in front of him.
Qin Fei deserves to die, but Qiao Xing is just an ordinary person.
She couldn't accept that kind of scene.
Qin Ce held her in his arms tenderly, trying his best to soothe her emotions and help her forget what had just happened.
But Qiao Xing's thoughts were already in complete disarray.
She couldn't even control her own mind, and didn't know what she was saying.
The police carried Qin Fei out, and Yang Han and Wang Ye, who were handling the aftermath, also came out.
The two glanced at Qiao Xing, then at Qin Ce. After a silent exchange, Qin Ce understood what they meant.
Qin Fei is indeed dead.
Qin Ce told them to stay and handle the rest, while he took Qiao Xing back first.
Qiao Xing, who was originally in Qin Ce's arms, inadvertently glanced at Qin Fei, who was covered with a white sheet, and her mind went blank.
A series of images flashed before her eyes, assaulting her senses.
In just a few seconds, Qiao Xing felt a sharp pain in his abdomen.
She frowned deeply and took deep breaths.
Seeing this, Qin Ce quickly asked, "What's wrong?"
"Qin Ce, my stomach hurts so much..."
Qiao Xing was rushed to the hospital.
As Qin Ce watched Qiao Xing being wheeled into the delivery room, his palms became sweaty.
It was only at this moment that he realized how fast his heart was beating.
In order to avoid any unexpected events, I checked into the hospital in advance.
But when that day actually came, Qin Ce still couldn't convince himself not to panic.
He knew very well what childbirth meant for a woman; just a door away, there was his beloved person and his child.
Qin Ce prayed silently.
Qin Ce had never done anything wrong in his life, and he hoped that God would bless his lover and his child.
Yang Han walked over and patted Qin Ce on the shoulder. "Old Qin, don't worry, your wife will be fine. I'll handle today's matter. You just stay here and keep her company."
Qin Ce nodded without saying anything.
Wang Ye notified the Wang family, and Grandpa Qin also learned of the news and rushed to the hospital in a hurry.
The once quiet corridor was now filled with people.
Qiao Xing's due date was still a few days away. Although it wasn't considered premature, the incident happened suddenly, catching everyone off guard.
Grandpa Qin, in particular, was unaware of everything that had happened that day.
But the unexpected news still made him very anxious.
Wang Qin stood to one side, with Xi Xi beside her.
Hearing Qiao Xing's painful cries from the delivery room, her heart clenched painfully.
A mother and daughter are of one heart; how could she not understand Qiao Xing's pain?
Xi Xi noticed Wang Qin's nervousness and gently patted her hand.
"Mom, don't worry, my sister will be safe."
Wang Qin wiped away her tears and nodded, choking back sobs.
She already felt so sorry for her daughter; all she hoped for was that she and her child could both come out of the delivery room safely.
The process of childbirth seemed exceptionally long. Although Qiao Xing had received an epidural, her voice could still be heard.
Everyone waiting outside the delivery room was extremely nervous, their hearts pounding in their chests.
As Bai Yi listened to Qiao Xing's voice, he felt heartache and couldn't help but think of himself.
Wang Ye stood next to her, and Bai Yi, perhaps because she was really too nervous and uneasy, gripped Wang Ye's arm tightly.
Wang Ye didn't pay attention at first and kept comforting Bai Yi.
But Bai Yi used too much force later, and Wang Ye gasped in pain, "Wife...wife."
Wang Ye reminded Bai Yi, and Bai Yi finally came to her senses. She quickly let go of Wang Ye's arm.
Seeing the obvious scratches on his arm, Bai Yi said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to..."
Wang Ye didn't blame her at all. Instead, he asked, "Are you scared because your cousin is giving birth?"
Although Bai Yi became a mother at a young age, she had never experienced the pain of childbirth. How could she not be afraid when she heard Qiao Xing's voice?
Bai Yi asked worriedly, "They've been inside for so long, they should be alright, right?"
Wang Ye comforted her, "It'll be alright. Every woman has to go through this when she gives birth. Qin Ce takes good care of my cousin, so she'll definitely be able to give birth safely."
Actually, Wang Ye was also worried. When he heard others talk about how having a baby was, he didn't have any other thoughts.
Just like having a child is a perfectly normal thing in a person's life.
But after experiencing it firsthand, he realized just how intense the tension was.
In the quiet corridor, Qiao Xing's voice sounded even clearer.
No one knows what she went through inside; they can only listen to her rising and falling voices and silently pray in their hearts.
The delivery room door was pushed open, and a nurse rushed out.
"Who are Qiao Xing's family members? The baby's head is too big and it's stuck and can't be delivered. The doctor asked me to tell you that if it really can't be delivered, we'll have to consider a C-section."
Upon hearing this, Grandpa Qin almost choked on his breath.
His voice trembled as he said to the nurse, "Girl, no matter what, you must save my granddaughter-in-law's life!"
"Don't worry, we will do our best."
Just as the nurse was about to go in, Qin Ce grabbed her.
He took a deep breath. It was a short sentence, but every word carried great weight.
"Please make sure she's safe, I beg you."
The nurse nodded.
At that moment, Qin Ce suddenly recalled what Qiao Xing had said to him earlier.
"Qin Ce, if the doctor asks you whether you want to save the mother or the baby when I give birth, what will you say?"
"You watch too many TV dramas?"
The question of whether to save the mother or the child only appears in those bizarre TV dramas.
In reality, no matter what happens, doctors will always try to save the mother.
Qiao Xing knew, of course, that she just wanted to ask Qin Ce what he would choose if that situation really happened.
Although Qin Ce knew that the situation Qiao Xing described would not occur.
But at this moment, deep down he desperately hoped that the doctor would save Qiao Xing.
The nurse went in and never came out again.
Qiao Xing's voice gradually grew weaker, and everyone was holding their breath for him.
Finally, the sound of a baby crying came from the delivery room.
