"Time flies! It feels like just yesterday that the two children got married, but in the blink of an eye, it's already time for Zhihuan to give birth."
"Yes, she's been inside for half an hour now, and there's still no movement. It's really making me anxious."
On the day Shen Zhihuan gave birth, the whole family came.
A large crowd surrounded the entrance to the delivery room, their ears pressed tightly against the door.
But they couldn't hear any sound coming from inside, and they were getting really anxious.
As Zhao Haiyin peered through the crack in the door, she kept muttering to herself.
"It's been so long, and Zhihuan still hasn't come out. Should we ask the doctor? What if we disturb them?"
She was not only worried, but also extremely anxious.
Seeing Xie Lanshen standing there, so nervous he was practically frozen in place, she quickly went over to comfort him:
"Don't worry too much. Zhihuan is a lucky person and she will definitely be fine."
Xie Lanshen slowly released his clenched fists, only then realizing that he was so nervous that he was sweating profusely.
Not to mention Grandpa Xie, if he were allowed, he would love to rush into the delivery room and stay by Shen Zhihuan's side at all times.
No one in the entire hospital was more worried about his wife's condition than him.
"I'm fine, I can hold on. Mom, you were so nervous your legs started shaking. Why don't you sit down and rest for a while?"
After calming the elders down, Xie Lanshen stepped forward, curled his fingers and pressed them against the cold iron door, silently praying in his heart.
"Zhihuan, no matter what, all I want is for you to be safe."
No one knew what was happening inside the delivery room; all they could see was that the doctors at the military hospital were also very nervous.
After all, Dr. Shen, who is going to have a cesarean section today, is carrying twins.
Everyone was extremely cautious around this outstanding colleague, fearing any unexpected incidents.
At the beginning of this year, Cheng Wan found someone who truly loved her and got married again.
The woman who gave birth was the wife's cousin and savior; her husband, Wen Yao, also came along.
He stayed outside the delivery room without leaving her side, ready to run errands at any time, while also comforting Cheng Wan, who was also pregnant.
"Don't worry, Wanwan. This is a military hospital directly under the military. With so many excellent doctors here, Zhihuan will definitely be fine."
Cheng Wan sat on the bench, her slender fingers tightly gripping the hem of her skirt, her face filled with worry.
“I know all of this, but it’s Zhihuan’s first time having a child, and I’m really worried about her.”
Before she could finish speaking, Cheng Xiangling next to her started screaming and yelling.
"Oh, sister, please stop talking. I'm already worried about my cousin's condition. If you keep saying this, I'll be even more anxious."
Cheng Xiangling leaned against the wall with a solemn expression, her mind racing with all sorts of imagining scenes from the delivery room. Her legs went weak with fear, and she kept sobbing.
"Marriage is too scary, having children is even scarier. I'd rather stay single. I will never get married under any circumstances!"
Song Xunying was already on edge, and having to listen to her youngest daughter's nonsense made her roll her eyes.
"Hmph, you can't believe a word you say. Last time you told us that you wanted to find a husband who was just as good as your two brothers-in-law."
At the same time, Lin Banxia, who had just finished her performance, immediately took a taxi and rushed over.
As soon as she ran out of the stairwell, before she could even start speaking, tears were already streaming down her face.
"How is Huanhuan? How are she and the baby? Am I too late?"
Lin Banxia was extremely worried about her daughter's condition.
If Shen Zhihuan hadn't said there was nothing seriously wrong, that her pregnancy was going well, and that she wouldn't have to suffer too much during childbirth.
Lin Banxia insisted on canceling her performance to stay by her side every step of the way.
Song Mingqian had already guessed what question she was going to ask and had prepared his answer in advance.
As soon as Lin Banxia opened her mouth, he immediately began to explain everything in detail, as if he were reporting news to a leader.
"Although Huanhuan hasn't left the operating room yet, she's doing well and there shouldn't be any unexpected problems."
"When she was about to go into the delivery room, she specifically told us not to worry about her, that everything was fine."
Lin Banxia nodded repeatedly, forcing back tears as she echoed:
"Everything will be alright. Although this is Zhihuan's first time giving birth, her medical skills are so amazing. She definitely knows more than we do. All we need to do is trust her and wait for her to come out."
The couple held hands tightly and sat down on a nearby bench, waiting anxiously.
As time ticked by, everyone took turns trying to persuade Xie Lanshen to sit down and rest for a while, so he could save his energy to take care of his wife and children later.
He seemed to be rooted to the spot, refusing to leave no matter what.
Only when he looked at the iron gate in front of him could he feel at peace.
Xie Lanshen had never felt time pass so slowly as he stood guard over Shen Zhihuan, separated from her by only a wall.
He also went through his entire life in his mind.
The longer he spent with Shen Zhihuan and the more details he discovered, the clearer things became for him recently.
He used to find those strange dreams utterly absurd.
But upon closer reflection, it becomes clear that everything in the dream corresponds perfectly with reality.
