“If…” Ning You struggled to get up, “If this life is like my last, where I’m stuck in bed forever, then I’d rather die right now!”
That feeling of being unable to move while lying in bed, a feeling worse than death.
She doesn't want to experience it again!
Ning Wan stopped Ning You's movements and comforted her, "No, no, it definitely won't happen."
Another wave of pain is coming.
Ning You was in so much pain that she had no strength left to struggle, and curled up and lay back on the bed once again.
This time she couldn't hold back and screamed, "Ah, it hurts so much!... I don't want to give birth anymore, let me die! Let me die!..."
Outside the door, Lu Chen could no longer sit still.
He rushed to the waiting area and, disregarding his appearance, shouted inside, "Nurses! Doctors! Come quick!"
Soon, doctors in white coats arrived after hearing the news.
Lu Chen followed them back to the delivery room.
The nurse pulled back the curtain, stopping Lu Chen outside: "I'm sorry, Mr. Lu, the doctor needs to perform an examination now. Please wait outside for a moment."
"You all need to help her. She wants it, either an epidural or a C-section, she'll do whatever she wants... She says she's in so much pain, please help her..."
The nurse stopped Lu Chen, who was losing control of his emotions: "We understand. Mr. Lu, please calm down and don't disturb the doctors' work."
After speaking, the curtain was drawn, completely blocking the view.
Through the blue curtain, Lu Chen could only hear Ning You's low moans.
But he could only stand outside the curtain, unable to do anything...
...
The examination revealed that her cervix was fully dilated, and Ningyou was taken to the delivery room.
Ning Wan, Lu Chen, and Ning's parents were all waiting outside the delivery room.
Separated by several doors, unable to hear any sounds from inside, Lu Chen appeared even more uneasy than before.
She stood at the entrance of the delivery room, pacing back and forth.
Ning Wan sat quietly in the corner chair, remaining silent.
Even so, some people still came to cause trouble.
Su Lin turned to Ning Wan and launched into another accusation for no apparent reason: "Your sister is in such a state, how can you still sit here with a clear conscience?"
"Otherwise what? Should I go in and give birth to her child?" Ning Wan said coldly, "I've given birth before, why don't you ever show any concern for me?"
"Can you compare yourself to your sister? From childhood to adulthood, your sister has saved me so much trouble. What do you have that can compare to your sister?"
Ning Wan snorted coldly: "Your prejudice against me is written all over your faces. No matter how much I say or do, it will be of no use."
"Everyone says that parents are the best people in the world to you. But some people's hearts are not located in the center of their chests."
"Ning Wan! How dare you talk to your mother like that!" Ning Jianshe also adopted the demeanor of an elder.
"Hey, isn't this my dad who's come back from the dead? He's usually silent, pretending he doesn't exist. He occasionally pops up to make his presence known, and he thinks he's so great. He flaunts his fatherly authority and enjoys his fatherly rights, but in reality, he's a coward who does nothing!"
Ning Jianshe's expression changed: "You!"
"...Mom!~"
On the other side of the corridor, Aman, with Ning Yanshu after school, also arrived at the hospital.
Ning Wan ignored the patriarchal couple, composed herself, and greeted them with a smile: "Xiao Shu, you're home from school!"
"Hmm~" Walking to Ning Wan's side, Ning Yanshu asked with a worried look, "Aman said that Auntie is going to the hospital to give birth to the baby."
"Yes. The baby is coming soon, is Xiaoshu excited?"
Ning Yanshu shook his head with a distressed expression: "Teacher Youzi said that giving birth is a very hard and wonderful thing. How is Auntie? Is she in pain? Did she cry?"
Even a five-year-old child knows the importance of caring for adults.
But Su Lin and Ning Jianshe were only worried about Ning You's baby from beginning to end.
More accurately, it's about caring only about the child's gender.
How ironic!
So how much of the care shown to Ning You back then was genuine and how much was feigned?
In their hearts, did they truly see Ningyou as their own child, or merely as a vessel for procreation?
...
Not wanting to reveal her bad mood in front of Ning Yanshu, Ning Wan suppressed her anger.
She crouched down, patted Ning Yanshu's head, and said, "Auntie is still working hard. Let's cheer her on from outside and wait for her to come out safely with the baby, okay?"
Ning Yanshu nodded emphatically: "Yes!"
During this time, Ning Yanshu's gaze repeatedly swept over the patriarchal couple.
Through their endless complaining, he realized that they were his mother's parents.
That is, his maternal grandparents.
They are his relatives in this world besides his mother and aunt.
However, unlike the gentle and loving appearance he had imagined, Ning Yanshu could clearly feel the other person's dislike and aversion towards him.
Ning Yanshu lowered his head, concealing his emotions.
If you don't like it, you don't like it.
He's not a hundred-yuan bill, he doesn't need everyone to love him...
...
The voices around him grew increasingly incessant, which only made Lu Chen feel more irritated.
It had been less than an hour since Ningyou was taken into the delivery room.
But he felt that every second was like an eternity.
And so we waited for about another hour.
Suddenly, a loud cry pierced the hospital corridor.
That voice was full of energy, pulling Lu Chen back from his daze.
Lu Chen's tense emotions suddenly relaxed, and he stood there stunned, dumbfounded...
