Everyone around recognized Yu Yao and Lu Ze, and they all nodded in agreement: "The young lady is right."
Wang Xiu carried the food she had brought from the cafeteria, listening to everyone's approval of Yu Yao, her eyes cold.
What role models, what magnanimous hearts—they're nothing more than well-disguised villains.
If she were truly magnanimous, why would she hold a grudge and make things difficult for her?
Wang Xiu turned and went to the ward.
Qin Lamei asked impatiently, "What happened in the corridor just now? It was so noisy."
Wang Xiu rolled her eyes. "It's nothing, it's just that Yu Yao is about to give birth, and Commander Lu brought her to the hospital, which caused a commotion."
"People outside say that Yu Yao is a lucky woman. She got pregnant with twins only a year after marrying Commander Lu."
Upon hearing this, Qin Lamei thought of her son, who had been murdered before he could even utter a sound, and her face instantly darkened.
Wang Xiu seemed not to have seen it, and sighed as she packed her things, "Speaking of which, the time you fell and the time Yu Yao went upstairs were only a short while apart."
“If you hadn’t come to find me that day, Yu Yao would have been the one who fell and lost her child. My poor nephew might have died because he took someone else’s place in the disaster.”
Qin Lamei's tone was sharp, "What did you just say?"
Wang Xiu seemed to remember what she had just said, and slapped her mouth, "Cousin, these are all superstitions that are banned now. I just made it up, don't take it seriously."
The more she explained, the more suspicious Qin Lamei became.
Could it be that her son really shielded Yu Yao's son from disaster? Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence?!
Yu Yao didn't know what the two were saying; all she wanted to do now was lie down. Her contractions were becoming more and more frequent and regular, and the pain was so intense that her face had turned pale.
Lu Ze placed Yu Yao on the bed.
After examining Yu Yao, Dr. Cai smiled and said, "It will take a little more time. You're only two centimeters dilated. Since this is your first pregnancy, it will probably take another six or seven hours to dilate to ten centimeters. Please wait patiently in the ward. Call me when you're fully dilated."
"Family members can help her walk around the ward to speed up cervical dilation."
"Thank you, Dr. Cai, we understand."
Lu Ze stepped forward to help Yu Yao up, touched her forehead, and asked with concern, "Yao, how are you? Does it hurt? Can you get out of bed and walk around?"
Yu Yao carefully examined herself and nodded. "It doesn't hurt that much. I can walk around without any problem. Help me out of bed."
Just as dawn was breaking, exactly seven hours later, Dr. Cai came to examine her. After the examination, he said, "Comrade Yu is about to give birth. Nurse Huang, please take the mother to the delivery room. The family members can wait outside."
