Chapter 129 Before the New Life Comes
As Ruan Xingchen's due date approaches, the entire manor is shrouded in a tense atmosphere where everyone is on guard.
Dr. Lin, the obstetrician and gynecologist Mo Xiaohan had "specially" invited from Hong Kong, and his team had already arrived at the manor, guarding it day and night. Dr. Lin personally monitored Ruan Xingchen's fetal heart rate every day, not daring to relax for even a moment.
At the same time, a top-notch childcare team is in place to take care of all matters after the baby is born. All links have been arranged in advance to ensure that nothing goes wrong.
Mo Xiaohan is in a high state of "alert" almost every day. At this moment, he is standing in front of the three-dimensional map in the study, checking the optimal plan from the manor to the royal hospital with a focused expression.
This is the Nth time that the plan has been revised. Every route is marked with sniper points and blasting risks, and even the waiting time for traffic lights at each intersection is calculated to the second.
"Boss, we've deployed 128 sniper points within a three-kilometer radius of the hospital." A-Tai handed over the latest monitoring report. "We've deployed our personnel to the entire obstetrics VIP floor. Even the ventilation ducts have been equipped with infrared sensors..."
"Tsk... If you didn't know, you'd think you were planning a coup." Savika sat cross-legged on the bay window of the nursery and snorted. "Do you want me to convert the delivery bed into a bulletproof one first?"
"Shut up." Mo Xiaohan zoomed in on the hospital's three-dimensional structural diagram. "Have you installed a gas detector in the delivery room ventilation system?"
"Xiao Han, you're like a frightened cat right now..." Ruan Xingchen couldn't help but chuckle, reaching out and pinching his tense jawline, "You've checked this road more than twenty times..."
"Xingxing..." His palm rested on her abdomen, his voice suddenly hoarse, "I'm afraid..."
The fetus moved at this moment, like a little foot kicking his palm. Ruan Xingchen smiled and patted his hand: "Look, the baby is laughing at you."
The arrival of a new life always makes people full of anticipation but also nervous.
At three o'clock in the morning, Ruan Xingchen suddenly grabbed the bed sheet tightly in her sleep. Her amniotic fluid had broken and soaked the bed sheet.
"Xiaohan...the baby is coming..." She was sweating profusely and clutched his arm tightly.
Mo Xiaohan jumped up from the bed almost instantly. He quickly but carefully picked up Ruan Xingchen and carried her horizontally. His voice was trembling from the effort he made to suppress it: "Don't be afraid, Xingxing, I'm here!"
The entire manor woke up instantly, and the convoy cut through the morning mist like black arrows, speeding towards the Royal Hospital, which was strictly guarded by the Mohist sect.
Along the way, Mo Xiaohan held Ruan Xingchen's hand tightly, repeating over and over, "It's okay, I'm here," not knowing whether he was comforting her or soothing his own heart, which was about to burst out of his chest. His usual calm and decisive demeanor was gone, replaced by an unprecedented panic.
Because Ruan Xingchen had a history of heavy bleeding, Dr. Lin's team determined that this baby had to be delivered by caesarean section.
Mo Xiaohan sent Ruan Xingchen into the prepared operating room. Just as he grabbed the sterile suit and was about to accompany the birth, Ruan Xingchen suddenly stopped him: "Get out!"
Mo Xiaohan's body froze: "What?"
"I'm getting nervous when you're here..." She panted and pushed him away, "Your hands are shaking like sieves... Go out and wait!"
Although she knew that he could remain calm in the face of gunfire, she couldn't imagine what he would feel like when he witnessed any accidents that might happen on the operating table. She didn't want him to suffer the fear of the unknown.
Mo Xiaohan wanted to say something else, but Ruan Xingchen was extremely persistent, so in the end, he had no choice but to compromise.
The door of the delivery room slowly closed in front of him, isolating him from everything inside.
Mo Xiaohan stood frozen at the door, like a statue with its soul ripped out, his eyes filled with undisguised nervousness and panic. Inside were two people he'd protected with his life, yet he could only stand there, unable to do anything.
Savika hugged Su Lixia and sat on the bench in the corridor. Looking at Mo Xiaohan's distraught expression, he sneered and whistled: "Are you scared now? When you were slaughtering people in Southeast Asia, you didn't even see your hands shaking?"
Mo Xiaohan glanced at him coldly: "Wait until the day you become a father..."
"I'm definitely not like that." Savika squeezed Su Lixia's hand in her arms. "It's just a baby, why are you so panicked?"
Hearing this, Su Lixia secretly poked his lower back: "When the time comes, you might be even more exaggerated than Mr. Mo..."
"Boss, the caesarean section will be quick, and we'll hear good news soon..." A Tai looked at Mo Xiaohan and tried to comfort him, "The medical conditions are so good, and the obstetrician and gynecologist Dr. Lin will be the one who will perform the surgery. Madam will definitely be fine..."
"Mr. Mo, I'm sure you'll be blessed by fate," Su Lixia said softly, "everything will go smoothly."
Mo Xiaohan turned his head abruptly, his eyes red, and his voice suppressed with great uneasiness and anxiety: "She had a heavy bleeding before..."
He was not only worried about the birth itself, but also about the potential dangers. The medical terms about risks were hitting his mind crazily.
At this time, Mo Xiaohan was no longer the tyrant who could make things happen in Southeast Asia with a wave of his hand. He was just an ordinary husband and father who was waiting outside the delivery room anxiously for his wife and child.
Time seemed to be stretched infinitely, and every minute and every second was torture.
