Chapter 211 Mother and child are safe!
Soon, Gu Beichen rushed out carrying a large bag, a military green water bottle, and a conspicuous red thermos.
"Yueyue, the water's here!"
He unscrewed the cap of the military green water bottle and carefully held it to Su Yue's lips.
Su Yue took a large gulp from his hand, her hands trembling.
No, it's not about drinking.
It is irrigation.
The cool spring water slid down my throat and into my stomach, as if a gentle energy was spreading out instantly.
The excruciating pain that felt like it was tearing her apart began to subside at a visible speed, replaced by a warm, comforting sensation.
it works!
Su Yue was overjoyed, but dared not show it on her face.
She deliberately coughed twice, weakly pushing the kettle away: "That's enough... cough cough... take that red thermos too... drink it on the way..."
No one doubted her words.
Childbirth is a major battle for pregnant women, and replenishing their physical strength is crucial.
Gu Beichen stuffed the thermos filled with spiritual spring water into the maternity bag, scooped Su Yue up from Zhang Huilan's arms, and strode out of the courtyard.
Held firmly in Gu Beichen's arms, Su Yue secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The pain in my lower abdomen has completely disappeared, leaving only a slight feeling of heaviness.
She knew this was a normal feeling that the baby was about to be born.
She even had the leisure to open her eyes, her gaze passing over Gu Beichen's shoulder, coldly sweeping over the stiff figure at the kitchen doorway.
When Xiaolan met her gaze, she felt as if she had been stung by a scorpion, and she shuddered violently, almost collapsing to the ground.
Su Yue looked away and buried her face in her husband's warm chest.
We'll settle this score with her properly after she gives birth!
The General Hospital of the Military Region was already on high alert.
As soon as the jeep came to a stop, the head of obstetrics and two nurses were already waiting at the door with a stretcher.
"Quick! How is the mother in labor?"
"Premature birth, miscarriage, severe contractions!" Gu Beichen's voice trembled without him even realizing it.
Su Yue was quickly transferred to a stretcher and rushed to the operating room.
The corridor was brightly lit, and the sound of wheels rolling echoed in the empty passageway, sounding particularly jarring.
"The family members are waiting outside!"
With a loud bang, the heavy green door of the delivery room slammed shut in front of Gu Beichen, completely separating the two worlds.
In that instant, Gu Beichen felt as if all the strength in his body had been drained away.
This man, who would remain unmoved even if Mount Tai collapsed before him on the battlefield, now had icy hands and feet, and his whole body was trembling uncontrollably.
He stood stiffly at the entrance of the delivery room, motionless, like a statue weathered by time.
Soon, Huo Shouzhen, Gu Zhengfeng, and Zhang Huilan also arrived in a hurry.
Zhang Huilan stared at the tightly closed door, her eyes instantly reddening. She kept murmuring, "May the Bodhisattva protect us, may mother and child be safe, may we be safe..."
Gu Zhengfeng supported his wife. This usually dignified deputy commander was now full of worry, pacing back and forth in the corridor.
Huo Shouzhen walked to his son-in-law's side, patted him heavily on the shoulder, and said nothing.
But the power transmitted between soldiers made Gu Beichen's stiff body loosen slightly.
Time seemed to stretch on endlessly at that moment.
Every minute, every second was torture.
The wall clock ticked monotonously, each tick of the hands seeming to slowly torture everyone waiting outside the door.
"Thump—thump—thump—"
In the distance, the New Year's bells rang.
Accompanied by the tolling of bells, dazzling fireworks exploded in the night sky, along with the continuous sound of firecrackers.
Outside, there was the joy and clamor of the New Year, but inside this corridor, there was only deathly silence and suffocating waiting.
Inside the delivery room.
Premature birth, especially with twins, carries extremely high risks.
Her consciousness was dictated by the instructions of the doctors and nurses.
"Take a deep breath! Push! You can see the head!"
A powerful will and a maternal love that came from the depths of her blood pulled her back from the brink of unconsciousness.
"ah--"
Su Yue used the last bit of strength in her body to let out a desperate scream.
I don't know how much time passed.
Just when everyone was about to be driven crazy by this long wait.
"Wow--"
A loud and clear cry of a newborn baby suddenly rang out from the delivery room, breaking the tranquility of the hospital.
It was a success!
Overjoyed, Zhang Huilan burst into tears and hugged Gu Zhengfeng tightly.
Gu Beichen's tense body suddenly relaxed, and the immense joy made him almost unable to stand.
However, before everyone could breathe a sigh of relief...
"Wow--"
Immediately afterwards, another equally loud cry rang out.
One after the other, they complement each other.
The delivery room door creaked open.
A nurse, covered in sweat, ran out excitedly, her face beaming with undisguised joy, her voice trembling with excitement.
"Congratulations, Commander Gu! Congratulations, Chief! It's twins! Mother and babies are safe and sound!"
boom--
An overwhelming surge of joy, like a tsunami, instantly engulfed Gu Beichen.
His legs went weak, his body swayed, and he almost knelt down on the spot.
Fortunately, Huo Shouzhen caught him from behind.
"Where's my wife?!"
His voice was so hoarse it was unrecognizable, like a broken gong roaring.
"Where's Su Yue? How is she?!"
He didn't even hear the part about "twins" clearly; his mind was filled with only one thought: Su Yue! His Yueyue!
The nurse was startled by his murderous look, but quickly recovered and her face still showed undisguised joy.
"Commander Gu, don't worry! Don't worry! The mother is fine! Both mother and babies are safe! It's just that she was premature and had twins, so she was exhausted. They're stitching her up right now, and she'll be out soon!"
"Are you really alright?" Gu Beichen asked again, his voice trembling noticeably.
"He's really fine!" the nurse replied decisively. "Don't worry! Your husband is stronger than anyone else! Get ready to be a father soon, and you'll have both a son and a daughter!"
Having both a son and a daughter...
These four words finally reached Gu Beichen's ears.
He became a father.
They had a son, and then a daughter.
His body, which had been stiff from extreme tension, finally relaxed completely.
Overwhelmed with joy and lingering fear, he, a tough and resolute man, instantly had tears welling up in his eyes.
"Good lad! You're lucky!" Huo Shouzhen's voice was filled with barely suppressed excitement.
Twins (a boy and a girl)!
Mother and child are safe!
Gu Beichen leaned against the wall, his body still trembling slightly. He wanted to laugh, but tears welled up in his eyes first.
This tough man, who bleeds but never sheds tears, is now crying like a child.
Soon, Su Yue was wheeled out of the delivery room by a nurse.
She lay on the hospital bed, her face as pale as a sheet of paper, her hair soaked with sweat and stuck to her cheeks. She was extremely weak, but her beautiful eyes were unusually bright.
Beside her hospital bed, two small incubators were pushed side by side, inside which lay two little ones wrapped up tightly, their faces wrinkled, like two little old men.
Gu Beichen rushed over immediately. He squatted down beside the hospital bed and carefully held Su Yue's hand, which was ice-cold and had no warmth at all.
