Xiang Zhilan sat up, wrapped her arms around his waist from behind, and rested her head on his back.
She could understand the sadness of knowing that something could be saved but being powerless to do anything about it, and she would no longer doubt the meaning behind his insomnia.
"Why are you awake?" Shen Muzhi lowered his head, took her hand that was wrapped around his waist, and patted it gently.
"And what about you? Why can't you sleep?" Xiang Zhilan gently rubbed her cheek against his back.
Worried that she might misunderstand, Shen Muzhi quickly turned around and said, "Zhi Lan, I..."
Xiang Zhilan raised her hand and pressed it against his lips, nestling her head into his chest, her voice slightly hoarse from just waking up: "I understand, no explanation needed, I understand everything."
Shen Muzhi embraced her, buried his head in her hair, and after a long while, he finally suppressed the sob in his throat, "Zhi Lan, thank you."
He was always grateful that she was willing to marry him again after she was so badly hurt. But he always had a feeling that her feelings for him were not as deep as his. He was always insecure, but it turned out that she not only understood him and knew him, but also tolerated him.
The two embraced for a long, long time until dawn broke, and a cry rang out from outside the window.
After washing up and changing clothes, I went downstairs for breakfast and then took a car to the hospital.
The two sat in the back seat, their hands clasped tightly together the whole time.
"What's wrong?" Shen Muzhi turned his head to look at Xiang Zhilan, whose brow was furrowed.
Xiang Zhilan thought that they would be at the hospital soon, so she shouldn't worry him for the time being, and shook her head.
Her lower abdomen started to ache again, much like the feeling before her period, which was very uncomfortable.
As the car drew closer to the hospital, her pain intensified, and she gripped his hand tighter and tighter.
Seeing that her complexion was very bad, and her lips were pale, Shen Muzhi asked anxiously, "You're like this and you still say you're fine? What's wrong? Is your stomach upset?"
Xiang Zhilan knew she couldn't hide it anymore and nodded.
"Just bear with it a little longer." Shen Muzhi put his arm around her shoulder and said to A-Chao, "Drive faster."
Ah Chao sped up.
Xiang Zhilan looked up at Shen Muzhi, who was sweating profusely with anxiety. Her stomach felt a little better, so she comforted him, "Don't worry, we'll be there soon."
Shen Muzhi was naturally anxious. Seeing that they had arrived at the hospital, he couldn't wait to carry her out of the car.
Suddenly, Xiang Zhilan was struck by a sharp pain and could no longer bear it. She gripped Shen Muzhi's shirt tightly, crumpling it beyond recognition.
"Doctor, doctor!" Shen Muzhi was thrown into a panic when he saw that she had fainted from the pain, and rushed over.
The emergency room nurses quickly brought over a hospital bed, and Shen Muzhi put her down. She was then pushed into the emergency department and then wheeled out again a while later, with doctors and nurses rushing around.
Shen Muzhi hurriedly followed, but was blocked outside the ultrasound room. He was extremely anxious, his hands clenched tightly.
He felt something wet and sticky in his palm, and when he looked down, he saw that his palm was covered in blood.
He was immediately shaken and stared blankly at the blood.
The doctor and nurses wheeled Xiang Zhilan out again and said to Shen Muzhi, "You're the patient's husband, right?"
Shen Muzhi nodded quickly. The doctor said with a slightly somber expression, "She's pregnant, you should know that, right? We just did an ultrasound and it turned out to be an ectopic pregnancy with a ruptured uterine wall. We need to prepare for surgery immediately."
Ectopic pregnancy?
Shen Mu was taken aback and gripped the doctor's arm tightly. "What will happen to her?"
"Go with the nurse to sign the surgery consent form first." The doctor hurriedly pushed Xiang Zhilan into the operating room.
