Zi Teng lay on the bed, her spirits not too bad, but her furrowed brows and tightly clenched lips showed that she was in pain.
I didn't dare to go forward because Zi Teng was surrounded by a group of nurses. Qingzhen and I just observed Zi Teng from the other side of the room and cheered her on silently.
Zi Teng bit her lip tightly and gripped the bed sheet hard. A nurse came forward to comfort her, "Don't bite your lip, you'll hurt yourself. Here, give me your hand."
Wisteria obediently nodded, stopped biting her lip, and handed her hand to the nurse.
"Is Zifeng about to give birth?" I've never given birth before, nor have I ever seen anyone else give birth. Looking at Zifeng's current state, I felt extremely nervous.
Qingzhen shook her head, "Giving birth doesn't happen that quickly."
I nodded slightly. It seems like they've shown on TV that some babies might have to give birth for a whole day.
The hospital that Zifeng and her family found was a high-end maternal and infant center, and the money they spent was well spent, so Zifeng received exceptional treatment. She was alone in her room, and several nurses took turns taking care of her.
"Is there anything you want to eat right now? You need to replenish your nutrition."
Wisteria shook its head.
"Then I'll prepare some fresh juice, chicken noodle soup, and chocolate for you. Let us know if there's anything you'd like to eat. You need to eat something to replenish your strength after giving birth."
"Okay." Zi Teng nodded, and a nurse went out to prepare for Zi Teng.
"It hurts so much." Zi Teng's expression was a little better than before.
"Does it still hurt?" I stepped forward and asked in a low voice.
“It doesn’t hurt now.” Wisteria shook her head. “It hurt in waves.”
Are you experiencing contractions?
"Mm," Wisteria nodded gently in reply.
But after a short while, the wisteria started hurting again, and a nurse rushed over to hold her hand and rub the wisteria.
Fortunately, the wisteria wasn't a true mortal, so it could bear the pain somewhat and wasn't in too much pain.
"It hurts, but these waves of pain are really torturous," Wisteria sighed and complained.
"It's okay, it'll be fine once the baby is born."
Zifang sighed and began to complain that she should have never had a child if she had known it would be this troublesome, and that she didn't want to have children anymore. As she spoke, she even started crying and couldn't stop.
I stared in disbelief. What was going on?
Qingzhen stood beside me and said, "Pregnant women's emotions are unstable, and many experience this."
"Is that so?" I felt a little scared. I don't know what would happen if I gave birth.
I suddenly remembered that I was also a bit emotional when I was pregnant, and I even had a fight with You about Liu Lieyu.
I was feeling lost and depressed when the nurse pushed open the door and came in. She was the nurse who had just gone out to prepare food.
The nurse pushed a small cart with steaming hot chicken noodle soup on it, and the whole room was instantly filled with the rich aroma of chicken soup.
It smells so good...
"Here, have something to eat." The nurse skillfully put down the small table on the bed and placed the chicken noodle soup in front of Zi Teng.
Besides chicken noodle soup, the cart also carries freshly squeezed juice, chocolate, and a range of other snacks.
"Here, you two have some too." The nurse handed two glasses of juice to me and Qingzhen.
"Thanks."
The nurse helped Zi Teng sit up by adjusting the bed position, while another nurse fed her noodles from a bowl.
After taking a couple of bites, Zi Teng felt uncomfortable and asked the nurse to put the noodles down, saying she would eat them herself.
Qingzhen and I stood to the side, unable to help at all. I took the juice and sat down on the sofa in the room.
I finished the juice in a few gulps and then curled up on the sofa, feeling a deep sense of sleepiness.
I shook my head vigorously, trying to wake myself up. How could I fall asleep while Zifeng was giving birth?
But no matter how much I resisted, my head remained heavy, as if trying to pull me into darkness.
Could it be the juice? I forced myself to look at Zifeng and Qingzhen; they both drank it, so why were they fine?
I tried to ask a question, but I couldn't make a sound.
It really is a problem with the juice!
I wanted to call out to You outside the door, but I was completely plunged into darkness.
When I regained consciousness, all I saw was You's back standing in front of me.
Thankfully, You was there, and I breathed a sigh of relief, but I still didn't understand what had happened.
Three people stood opposite You, looking at you with cold expressions.
Two of them are people I know: Qingzhen and Zifeng.
I'm not surprised by Qingzhen, but Zifeng?! Isn't Zifeng still giving birth?!
I looked at Zi Teng's flat belly, and she didn't seem to be suffering from postpartum fatigue.
how so? !
What exactly happened?
My shocked gaze caught the attention of Wisteria. Wisteria and I exchanged a glance, our expressions incredibly complex.
"You, what happened?" My voice was still a little hoarse and weak because I had just woken up.
You turned her head and smiled as always, "You're awake."
I nodded and glanced at the empty juice glass on the table. "What's wrong with me?"
This is still the room where Zifang gave birth, only the nurses have all disappeared.
"There's something wrong with the juice you're drinking," You said as soon as she saw me looking at the juice on the table.
Just as I expected...
Could it be that Qingzhen and Zifeng conspired to harm me? And who is the person standing next to them, dressed in black robes whose face I can't see?
I'm not surprised or saddened that Qingzhen wants to harm me. After all, I felt something was off about him when he said he wanted to follow me.
But what about the wisteria? Could the wisteria really harm me?
I met Zi Teng when we were in Guixu. Could she be avenging her deceased aunt?
Shouldn't the revenge be directed at Liu Lieyu? Why did they come to me instead?
To be honest, seeing the wisteria like this broke my heart.
"Wisteria, why? Is the child thing also a lie?" I sniffed, unable to believe it. I clearly felt the child's pulse beneath my hands.
Yuya said that Wisteria's child is a boy. How did all this happen?
“The child isn’t fake.” Wisteria lowered her eyes, avoiding my gaze. “It’s just that the baby wasn’t born today; it was born before today.”
So what is this today? Is it a deliberate ploy to lure me into a trap?
Zi Teng suddenly knelt down, "Please, can you come with me to Guixu? Donghuang won't do anything to you. If I can't bring you back, my child will die."
"What did you say?" I was a little dizzy. Could this be a setup by Liu Lieyu?
Are all three of these people Liu Lieyu's men?
Liu Lieyu hasn't given up yet? He completely disregarded the God's words; has he gone mad?
Zi Teng knelt on the ground, "After I became pregnant, Donghuang came to my door. He threatened me with the child, and I had no choice but to do it."
I turned my head to look at You, "You know all this?"
