Chapter 1069

Suddenly, the door was flung open from the inside.

Before the doctor could come out, several men had already surged forward.

“How is she? What about the baby? How is the baby?”

Mu Xiaojiu clutched the doctor’s shoulder, his voice hoarse with tension.

He had never so clearly realized how much he had been looking forward to the birth of the baby.

It turned out he wanted this child so badly, his and his girl’s child.

What worries, what fears?

To hell with them all!

He shouldn’t care about anything else.

What he should care about was his woman, his child!

“Chil, child…” The doctor, who had spent many years on the island, when had he ever seen Mr.

Xiaojiu, unflappable even if Mount Tai were crumbling before him, show such an anxious and agitated side?

Startled by him, he stuttered, “Chi…

no, no child, there’s…”

“What did you say?

Have the guts to say that again!” Mu Xiaojiu tightened his grip on the doctor’s shoulder with a fierce squeeze.

The doctor, after being yelled at and shaking for a bit, rolled his eyes and fainted.

“You! Get up! Bastard! You dare say my child is gone! You cursed quack! Get the hell up!”

Mu Xiaojiu shook him vigorously, but the doctor remained limp in his grasp, completely knocked out.

“Mr. Xiaojiu, Mr. Xiaojiu, calm down, please calm down!” Nangong Xu was also startled by Mu Xiaojiu’s outburst.

At that moment, Mr.

Xiaojiu seemed like a fearsome Yama from hell.

Not to mention ordinary people, even they were terrified by his daunting aura.

“Mr. Xiaojiu, you’ve scared the doctor unconscious, who’s going to treat Xiaxia now?”

Nangong Xu was on the verge of having a heart attack from the stress.

He quickly turned around and glared at Ye Hua, who was standing there stunned: “Go find another doctor, what are you waiting for?”

“Uh! Right… right away!” Ye Hua snapped back to his senses and took off running.

Mu Xiaoyao could no longer wait, pushing past Nangong Xu, who was blocking the doorway, and striding into the room.

Mu Xiaojiu also recovered from his fear, kicked the fainted doctor aside, and barged into the medical room at top speed.

Deep inside the medical room, in the sterile ward, an assistant physician and two nurses were examining Baili Xia.

Thankfully, Baili Xia had not passed out, but was lying quietly on the bed.

Her large, round eyes had lost their usual luster, staring blankly at the ceiling.

This was the sight that greeted Mu Xiaojiu when he stormed in.

“Mr… Mr. Xiaojiu…” Seeing him come in, the assistant physician and the nurses were taken aback.

One nurse, in her alarm, accidentally stabbed the needle into her own hand, and screamed out…

The scene was chaotic and disordered.

The once fiery Mu Xiaojiu, upon seeing Baili Xia with her lifeless eyes on the hospital bed, abruptly slowed his steps.

The people around him, seeing his demeanor, even the young nurse who had accidentally pricked herself, went completely silent.

It was so quiet, indeed, that the sound of a pin dropping could be heard clearly by everyone.

Nangong Xu and Mu Xiaoyao stood by the door, not daring to enter.

The assistant physician and the young nurse kept to one side, also not daring to come closer.

Mu Xiaojiu walked step by step to Baili Xia’s side, gently taking her hand.

He wanted to speak, but all the words were choked in his throat, unable to come out.

He thought himself so tough, afraid of nothing, but now, he felt truly vulnerable.

Their child, his and his girl’s child, was gone just like that…
