It was Yan Tao's first time accompanying a woman to the hospital for childbirth. Hearing screams coming from inside, he was so frightened that he sat down in a chair, not knowing what to do.
If I had known it would turn out like this, I wouldn't have had the child. What if something happens to Pei Lina? He already has a life on his hands.
Li Meihua walked over, holding a small blanket in her hand, and placed it in his arms: "I just checked, and you haven't even prepared a small blanket for the child. This is the only extra blanket I have. You can make do with it for now, and then you should quickly ask your family to bring a new blanket. If the child wets the bed, there won't be a blanket left."
"Thank you so much, big sister!" Yan Tao said, extremely excited.
When Su Chenhao heard the girl call him Lao Yan, he guessed the relationship between them.
Why are you doing this to yourself?
"I had no choice," Yan Tao said, dropping the pretense. "I made a mistake in a moment of confusion, and I have no choice but to bear the consequences myself."
Qiao Xiaoni also guessed that they were having an extramarital affair, otherwise she wouldn't have prepared so few things.
Natural childbirth takes longer than cesarean section, and they waited for half an hour.
Yan Tao kept praying by the door that this pregnancy would be a son, so that he could have an heir. If it was another daughter, he would be destined to have only daughters for the rest of his life.
Qiao Dashan paced back and forth anxiously, frequently stopping in front of Su Chenhao to ask, "What's going on? Why haven't you come out yet after being inside for so long?"
"Don't worry, she's only just gone in. It hasn't been long. Your wife is working hard inside." Su Chenhao could only comfort him like this every time he came over.
Li Meihua appeared relatively calm compared to them; she had already given birth to several children. Besides, this was her daughter-in-law's second child, so the delivery shouldn't be too difficult. Furthermore, there were doctors and nurses present, and they would be informed if anything happened, so all she had to do was wait patiently.
Before we knew it, another ten minutes or so had passed, and the door finally opened, revealing a young female nurse.
"The family members of the first woman to come in, where are your things? Bring them over quickly, we need them right away."
"Here it is!" Qiao Dashan quickly handed the things to the nurse.
The baby was wrapped in a small red blanket with several diapers inside. A red strap was also provided for easy handling. The nurse checked it over and, finding everything she needed, turned and went back to the delivery room.
About two minutes later, they heard the baby crying, and the family was very excited.
A while later, the nurse from before came out again, holding the baby in her arms.
"Seven pounds and two ounces, congratulations!"
Li Meihua stepped forward and took the child, her movements extremely careful.
Several people gathered around and watched. The little guy was pretty, especially his fair and rosy skin.
Seeing the baby come out, Yan Tao couldn't help but ask the nurse, "Where's the mother who gave birth?"
"She's young and will have to wait a while. She's only dilated to five centimeters, and she's already in so much pain. The doctor inside is comforting her!"
Family members need to be mentally prepared; if she can't withstand the pain, she'll need surgery, meaning she'll have to endure a second round of suffering.
"This..." Yan Tao felt a greater sense of responsibility. He said to the person inside the door, "Lina, give it your all! Give birth to the baby, and I'll give you whatever you want."
The nurse's expression changed slightly. After all that, it turned out this man was the child's father! She had thought he was the pregnant woman's father.
