Chapter 1223 I don’t want the other party to know
"Do I look like I'm worried about her?"
Being stared at coldly by Li Jinxing, the nanny was stunned for a moment, wondering in her heart, what's not like?
From head to toe, it showed that he was worried about Gu Wanqiu. If he wasn't worried, Gu Wanqiu wouldn't come here in the middle of the night. If he wasn't worried, the first thing he would ask when he came in would be Gu Wanqiu. I really wanted to give him a mirror to see what the expression on his face was.
Li Jinxing didn't notice his own expression. He moved his lips and said, "Whether she's dead or alive is none of my business. As long as the child is okay, that's all that matters."
It can be said that he fully demonstrated the "scumbag" quote, but putting aside the premise, he hurried to the delivery room with an anxious back.
The nanny looked at his back and shook her head helplessly. They were all adults, not primary school students. Why couldn't they be more generous and honest when dating?
From one o'clock in the middle of the night to dawn, a few hours passed in between, and Gu Wanqiu had more than four contractions in half an hour. According to the gestational period, the baby was at 38 weeks, two weeks earlier than the due date. She was diagnosed with premature labor and was in pain for most of the night. At seven o'clock in the morning, the fetal heart rate suddenly became high. The doctor judged that the conditions for normal delivery were not good and recommended a caesarean section.
During the whole process, Li Jinxing had been waiting quietly outside. Because of the soundproofing, he could not hear any sound from inside. He could only look through the tempered glass at Gu Wanqiu, who was lying on the bed and trembling in pain. She was holding something in her hand and trying to exert force, but there was something wrong with her hand itself and she had no way to use it to gain leverage.
There are enough medical equipment here for a caesarean section. Several doctors have already prepared the items needed for the operation. Although you don't have to go to the hospital, you still have to sign the surgical agreement. After all, no one can predict the risks of the operation. If no one signs, they will be fully responsible if something goes wrong.
After confirming that the surgery was necessary, the doctor took out the prepared surgical agreement and asked Li Jinxing to sign it, and also told him about Gu Wanqiu's current condition.
"Is the operation risky?" Li Jinxing asked.
"The risk is very small, but I can't guarantee you 100% success. Any surgery has certain risks."
He knew this because he himself had been hospitalized due to illness and had signed such forms more than three times.
He signed for Gu Chaodong, for Gu Wanqiu, and for himself...
He knew that the risk of a caesarean section was not high, but it's better to be safe than sorry.
"If there is danger, we can only... protect the big one."
"Well, we all know. Don't worry too much, Mr. Li. Miss Gu is safe now."
Does he really look worried about Gu Wanqiu? Why did the nanny say so and the doctor also said so.
A person's worry can be felt by others, just like someone standing by a campfire.
"Mr. Li, do you want to go in with me? If you do, please change into sterile clothing here..."
…
Gu Wanqiu in the delivery room was already panting. The sweat on her forehead quickly overflowed again after being wiped clean. In order to maintain her strength, the medical staff gave her chocolate to eat.
If she hadn't maintained adequate nutritional intake recently and kept her body healthy, she probably wouldn't have been able to hold on until now.
As the anesthesia was pushed into the spine, Gu Wanqiu began to feel a little dizzy and completely lost all strength.
She still felt present, but everything happening around her seemed so unreal. She stared at the glaring operating light. She thought that after going through so many things, she would no longer be afraid of anything. But at this moment, she was still scared and wanted to cry.
She was not a strong person, but at this moment, she was not afraid of a difficult delivery, but she was afraid that if something happened to her, she would die... then Li Jinxing would not be able to be saved. She had finally decided to save him, so she could not let anything happen to her.
…
Something blocked her view and she couldn't see anything. She could only hear rustling sounds around her. She was a little scared and her hands began to move around, trying to grab something. At this moment, a hand suddenly grabbed her.
She didn't think much about it and held it back tightly. As soon as she held it tightly, she felt at ease and was not so scared anymore.
Not long after the operation, the baby was taken out. Gu Wanqiu suddenly felt her stomach empty. Then she heard the baby's weak cry. Gu Wanqiu felt relieved, and then her nose felt sore, and tears fell down in big drops. It seemed that the hand holding her suddenly loosened, as if he noticed her crying, and then touched her head.
Gu Wanqiu suddenly felt fortunate that nothing happened to the child or herself, and there was no accident of excessive bleeding. If she had bled too much, she would have had to eat pig liver and pig blood for many days to replenish her blood, and she was afraid that she would not have time to do so.
However, a caesarean section, after all, involves surgery, which will cause great damage to the body. You need to rest well and take good care of your body before deciding what to do next.
The hand that was resting on her head quietly dropped down. After a while, the doctor removed the object that was blocking her vision. The operating light was still on, still dazzling, and Gu Wanqiu's eyes were blurred with tears.
"Where is the child?" Her voice was weak, but the surroundings were so quiet that everyone could hear her even if she spoke softly.
"Here, here." The female doctor holding the child beside her brought the child to her side. "Look, how cute it is. It's a girl. Congratulations."
The child was born more than ten days prematurely. Gu Wanqiu's health had not been very good in the early stages, and she had been tossing and turning. Although all her physical indicators met the standards, the child was very small, weighing less than five kilograms.
Because the fetal heartbeat stopped once during the pregnancy, Gu Wanqiu took a quick look and was sent to the incubator prepared in advance.
Gu Wanqiu closed her eyes and thought of the child's red and swollen eyes from crying, and his face that looked like a little old man. She didn't know whose facial features he resembled.
"Who held my hand just now?" Gu Wanqiu asked when she was sent out of the delivery room.
"I want to thank her in person." She was so scared at that time, and if it weren't for the hand holding her, it would have been difficult for her to hold on.
Gu Wanqiu looked weakly at everyone around her, trying to find out who that person was.
There was a brief silence around them. Finally, the female doctor who had brought the child over came back and said hurriedly, "It's me. I just noticed your hands were moving..."
Gu Wanqiu looked at her and suddenly felt something strange in her heart. She raised her hand. When the female doctor saw it, she came over and held her.
She didn't know if it was an illusion, but she felt that the hand she was holding during the operation was different from this one.
Unfortunately, her eyes were covered at the time and she couldn't see clearly, and there is no way to confirm it now.
Maybe she was overthinking it. There was no need to lie to her about such a small matter.
"Thank you."
The female doctor shook her head and said gently, "You've worked hard. Now rest well. We will always be with you and take good care of you. You will recover soon."
Gu Wanqiu's eyes were a little red and swollen, and her body was very weak from sweating. Now, after wiping them clean and returning to the room, she was suddenly overwhelmed by fatigue.
Fortunately, she is no longer allergic to anesthesia, otherwise, I really don’t know how this operation will proceed.
Why is she no longer allergic to anesthetics? Perhaps it is related to what happened during the five years she disappeared. She only has memories of those five years that she doesn't remember, and those must be the most terrifying and darkest memories.
Who abducted her? Who imprisoned her for five years? How did she escape? How did she appear in front of Gong Qing? Every single thing was strange.
I thought the contractions would be the most painful, but I didn't expect that the pain was still to come.
She was already weak, and although she was tired she couldn't sleep. She lay in bed shivering, her back felt cold, and she felt chest tightness and nausea. After the anesthetic wore off, the pain of her cracking skin made her feel even more tormented.
The subsequent lochia discharge made her, whose voice was already weak and hoarse, unable to bear it and she burst into tears.
The doctor gave her a painkiller injection and hung up a pain stick. The pain began to ease, and she fell into a drowsy sleep in the slight pain.
During the whole process, she had no idea that there was an extra person in Qiule Manor today.
Li Jinxing was standing outside the door, listening to Gu Wanqiu's crying. He didn't go in because he was afraid that if he went in, he would reveal his soft side and Gu Wanqiu would take advantage of him.
The doctor who had just put an analgesic on Gu Wanqiu came out and saw Li Jinxing standing in the corridor: "Mr. Li, if you are so worried about Miss Gu, why don't you go in and see her? Why don't you let her know?"
When Gu Wanqiu was undergoing surgery, Li Jinxing went in to accompany her during delivery. It was also he who asked the doctor to block Gu Wanqiu's view and held Gu Wanqiu's hand.
When he brought the child out, he didn't even look at the child. Instead, he raised his hand and touched Gu Wanqiu's head to comfort her first.
He didn't want Gu Wanqiu to know that he had been here, and he asked all the doctors to keep it a secret for him.
Gu Wanqiu really didn't find anything.
After hearing the room gradually become quiet, Li Jinxing went to see the child. The child in the incubator was tiny, with a delicate pink body, and looked very soft.
Such a small life, much smaller than the original Si Yan Si Xu.
But even such a young child troubled Gu Wanqiu for eight hours.
He was the one who watched over the birth of Si Yan and Si Xu. The children were not very good-looking when they were born, but as they grew up, their faces became fuller, and their facial features became more and more beautiful. After all, a child's appearance is inherited from the genes of their parents. Both parents are good-looking, and none of their ancestors were ugly, so the children's genes will not be too bad.
Not to mention the little girl, she is definitely more beautiful.
Li Jinxing watched the child in the incubator move his little hands and feet, and the softest part of his heart seemed to be pierced by something sharp, and he shuddered.
He put his hand on the incubator and seemed to touch her through the transparent layer.
He wanted to hug her, but it was obviously not the time.
Gu Sui...Xiao Sui...As long as daddy is around, you will be able to live the life you want.
Gu Wanqiu slept for four hours. After waking up, she ate something first, and then the doctor started to breastfeed.
Although the child was born a little prematurely, physical examinations showed that he was very healthy and he was allowed to drink breast milk a few hours after birth.
The female doctor carefully brought the child over. Gu Wanqiu leaned against the head of the bed with difficulty. She had an incision on her stomach and it was very difficult for her to stand up. Even after taking painkillers and hanging an analgesic stick, the pain did not completely disappear.
The hand that was stretched out was trembling, but it became strong once it took the child. The newborn baby was not good-looking, and could even be called ugly. It was the first time that Gu Wanqiu saw a newborn baby, and she felt very curious.
The soft little ball in her arms was even softer than she had imagined, and she felt touched.
The female doctor beside her praised, "Although it's more than ten days early, fortunately it's very healthy. Look how cute it is! When it grows up, it will definitely be a beautiful little princess."
Gu Wanqiu could not see any trace of beauty on the child's face, but when she thought about it, since both parents were good-looking, the child would naturally not be ugly when he grew up. Besides, it is said that a daughter looks like her father, and Li Jinxing was very handsome.
Gu Wanqiu was looking forward to seeing what her child would look like when he grew up, but she suppressed the thought as soon as it came to her mind because she would not be able to see her child grow up.
Gu Wanqiu's heart was gradually filled with loss and heavy pain.
The child didn't cry or make a fuss, his eyes were closed, and he curled up quietly in her arms.
"What's the date today?"
The doctor said, "May 6th, according to the lunar calendar, is the beginning of summer."
"Next year's Beginning of Summer will be Xiao Sui's first birthday."
Gu Wanqiu thought again of the baby's weak cry when it was just delivered by caesarean section, and felt more and more guilty.
If she had taken better care of herself during pregnancy, eaten more nutritious food, and ensured her baby's nutrition, she might not have given birth prematurely, and the baby would not have been born so small.
Gu Wanqiu stared at her wrinkled face, ignoring the pain in her body, slowly bent over, moved closer and put her face against hers, carefully feeling the child's breathing, temperature, and her heartbeat. This scene was warm and soft, as if surrounded by a halo.
After Gu Wanqiu finished feeding the baby, she asked the female doctor to take the baby to the incubator.
"You can hold me for a while longer."
"No, it's safer to put her back in the incubator. I'm a little tired now and can't hold her anymore."
When the female doctor heard her say this, she reached out, took the child and took him away.
The child feels safe and quiet next to her mother. Now she seems to have realized that she is about to leave her mother. Her little hands moved restlessly. Not long after the female doctor took her over, she opened her mouth and cried. The sound of her cry is enough to break one's heart.
Gu Wanqiu opened her mouth, but finally closed it.
The female doctor had experience in caring for babies and quickly calmed the child down.
She watched the female doctor leave and closed her eyes only after she could no longer see her back.
She wanted to draw blood from Li Jinxing, and she would die. She was destined to leave here before she died.
She couldn't let Li Jinxing know, so in order to avoid being discovered by him, she needed to make the following preparations.
She couldn't show any concern at all, whether it was towards Li Jinxing or the child, she had to be cold and pretend to be indifferent to deceive everyone.
