They didn't even have time to change their clothes, so they both looked a little disheveled.
"Jiujiu."
Ye Xi raised her hand to silence him, "Jiujiu just fell asleep, are you two hurt?"
The two shook their heads.
Jingxing glanced at the two little girls in the ward and said, "Auntie Xi, I'm going back first."
"Okay, Xiaohe should be worried."
Ji Chengzhou woke up when Lu Nanjing arrived.
He stayed with his young wife all night until her fever subsided after the IV drip, and then he lay down beside the bed and took a nap.
"Brother." His voice was a little hoarse after just waking up.
Lu Nanjing nodded, "Is Yingying feeling better?"
"The fever's gone. I'll have someone bring you some toiletries."
Ji Chengzhou picked up his phone and walked out.
Lu Nanjing walked to the bedside, bent down and kissed the sleeping person, "Mom, go back and rest for a while, I'll watch over you."
She looked at her sleeping daughter-in-law and daughter. The doctor had just said during the ward rounds that her cervix was not fully dilated and she would not be able to give birth for a while.
"Okay, I'll go back and ask Aunt Xu to get them something to eat."
Not long after Ye Xi left, Ji Chengzhou came in with a bag of clothes and breakfast.
"Brother, go take a shower first. Sister-in-law just fell asleep."
He put his things down, sat back next to Lu Nanying, and touched her forehead.
Ji Chengzhou's fever subsided after tossing and turning from early morning until dawn, and his frown never relaxed.
Seeing Lu Nanjing coming out of the bathroom, he pointed at breakfast and said, "Take a rest after eating. The doctor said the baby won't come soon."
After saying that, he held Lu Nanying's hand tightly and lay back down to continue sleeping.
Lu Nanjing was not polite either. He really hadn't eaten much all day.
He pulled a chair and sat down next to Gu Jiujiu, closing his eyes and preparing to take a nap.
Then I heard the little woman on the bed groan in pain.
He immediately opened his eyes and leaned closer to her, "Honey, do you have a stomachache?"
Gu Jiujiu endured the pain and opened her eyes. When she saw the person she was thinking about, tears instantly welled up in her eyes.
"Brother Jing." She stood up, put her arms around Lu Nanjing's neck, and leaned into his arms.
Lu Nanjing held the little woman, who looked like she was about to break, in his arms and kept kissing her forehead and hair.
"I'm sorry, baby. Don't be afraid. I'm back."
His eyes were red and his voice was choked when he spoke.
"My Jiujiu has suffered. I will definitely teach him a lesson when he comes out."
After the pain of contractions subsided, Gu Jiujiu looked at the man in front of her who she hadn't seen for a week and found that he had lost a lot of weight.
She raised her hand and touched his cheek, "Are you hurt?"
Lu Nanjing took her hand and placed it on his lips and kissed it, then shook his head. "Sleep a little longer. Mom said you didn't get much sleep last night."
The pale little face and slightly red eyes made Lu Nanjing's heart ache.
He helped Gu Jiujiu lie back on the bed, her wrist tightly grasped by her slender white hand.
"The bed is very big, will you sleep with me?"
Gu Jiujiu did not miss the blue color in his eyes and the fatigue in his pupils, "I'm scared."
Afraid that he wouldn't agree, she could only pout and squeeze out tears.
Lu Nanjing quickly took off his shoes, laid the man sideways on the bed, and held him in his arms.
"Don't be afraid, I won't leave. I have to protect my Jiujiu."
Gu Jiujiu, who hadn't slept well all night, leaned in his arms and soon fell asleep again.
Lu Nanjing felt sleepy when he smelled the familiar scent on her.
When Wen Yi and his wife hurried to the hospital, they opened the door and saw their daughter and son-in-law sleeping soundly.
Close the door gently.
Ji Chengzhou woke up the moment the door was opened, "Aunt Wen, Uncle Gu."
"Azhou, is Yingying feeling better?"
Last night she got up in the middle of the night to check on her daughter, but she was not at home, so she called Gu Ting anxiously.
When she learned that they had come to the hospital, she was extremely anxious and had to be comforted by Rong Yun for a long time.
She also said that Lu Nanying was not feeling well and was in the hospital, and that Gu Jiujiu had someone to accompany her, so she asked her to prepare something to eat in the morning before coming over.
Look, I came here after sending Xiao Rongyu to kindergarten with Gu Hangsen.
"Much better."
Lu Nanjing got up from the bed and said, "Mom and Dad."
"Ajing, thank you for your hard work." Wen Yi felt distressed when he saw his son-in-law's tired face.
Her son-in-law is also the pride of their Gu family, even though he was not by their daughter's side when she was about to give birth.
Wen Yidu never blamed him and only felt sorry for him.
"Jiujiu is the one who works hard."
Seeing that Gu Jiujiu was sleeping soundly, Gu Hangsen talked to Ji Chengzhou about recent business matters.
When Lu Nanying turned over and woke up, he greeted everyone in a hoarse voice.
"Brother, you are finally back."
The hoarse voice made Lu Nanjing frown, "How come he suddenly became so seriously ill?"
Ji Chengzhou coughed lightly and unnaturally, "It's all my fault for not noticing."
They were all men, so how could Lu Nanjing not understand what his cough was concealing?
Ji Chengzhou honestly accepted his brother-in-law's cruel look and held his young wife in his arms.
"Baby, besides a sore throat, are you feeling unwell anywhere else? I'll ask Atin to come back and take a look."
Lu Nanying leaned in his arms, "My throat hurts and I'm hungry."
"It's all your fault."
The soft voice made Ji Chengzhou's heart beat violently.
He chuckled and carried her into the bathroom to wash up, "Blame me. I won't do that again."
He was scared to death when he suddenly had a high fever. It was only on the way to the hospital in the car that he recalled how he lost control in the bathroom that night.
He was already so annoyed, how could he dare to do that again?
Wen Yi brought a lot of breakfast, and he carefully fed her porridge.
Gu Jiujiu lived in a high-end ward, which was like a small apartment, so it didn't feel crowded even with Lu Nanying living there.
The person on the bed choked and Lu Nanjing stood up reflexively.
"Brother Jing, my stomach hurts."
Lu Nanjing reached out to ring the bell, his hand holding her trembling slightly.
Wen Yi saw this and stepped forward to ask, "Jiujiu, is it painful when you fall?"
In just a few minutes, Gu Jiujiu's forehead was sweating from the pain, and she bit her lip and nodded.
Lu Nanjing raised his hand and stroked her pale lips.
"Good baby, don't bite yourself, bite me if it hurts."
Rong Yun came quickly with a gynecologist. Lu Nanjing was pushed out by the doctor and the examination curtain was drawn.
It wasn't long before I heard the doctor say, "She's eight fingers dilated. Prepare to send her to the delivery room."
Lu Nanjing was stunned. The baby was about to be born. He remembered that he was told during the antenatal class that he would have an epidural.
He stuttered and asked the doctor, "Don't I need an epidural?"
Seeing his pale face, Rong Yun smiled and comforted her, "Jiujiu's uterus is slow to open, and I took an epidural this morning before going to bed."
The curtain was drawn open, and the doctors and nurses prepared to push the bed away.
Lu Nanjing held Gu Jiujiu's hand tightly and said, "I want to go in. I'll go in with you."
"Brother Jing, I'm scared." Gu Jiujiu could already feel her stomach dropping.
"Be good, Jiujiu, don't be afraid." Lu Nanjing looked at Rong Yun.
Rong Yun nodded to the doctor and asked them to push Gu Jiujiu to the delivery room first.
"Ajing, I'll take you to change clothes."
