Switched Marriage: The Coddled Little Wife - Chapter 640: Labor

Chapter 640: Chapter 640: Labor

He couldn’t care less, and ran straight to Sister-in-law Fu, “Sister-in-law, I’m heading back now, let me use your bike first.”

Sister-in-law Fu had come by bike.

Just as he was about to leave, Sister-in-law Fu called out, “Don’t go home, Lin couldn’t reach you by phone, so she drove herself to the hospital.”

Qin Yang’s leg went weak just as he stepped on the pedal, nearly falling right there.

He looked back in disbelief, “She went to the hospital by herself?”

“Yeah, Lin is really something else. When she saw the bleeding herself and realized the baby was coming, she initially tried to call you back, but after two unsuccessful attempts, she didn’t wait for you and asked me to come and tell you that she has already gone to the hospital. You should hurry there, she looked pretty pale, probably already in pain…”

Sister-in-law Fu hadn’t finished speaking before she saw the man pedaling the bicycle, disappearing from sight in the blink of an eye.

Liu on the side sighed, “Minister Qin is truly young and strong; that bicycle pedal was almost sparking.”

Sister-in-law Fu thought to herself, “Who wouldn’t be anxious?”

Everyone knows how much Qin Yang treasures his wife; such a big event like childbirth, how could he leave her alone at the hospital?

But she truly admired Lin Chuxia as well, who, under those circumstances, was still not panicking and drove herself to the hospital.

Earlier, she calmly knocked on the door and then said she was bleeding and went to the hospital to give birth, asking her to inform Qin Yang.

The whole sentence was said before she realized it.

Only after the car drove away did she realize how urgent the situation really was.

Indeed, a fierce woman.

Meanwhile, Qin Yang rode the bicycle with almost all his strength, reaching the hospital at the fastest possible speed.

His mind was filled with images from the day Tang Lili gave birth, and Yang Rui’s blood-soaked back.

As he got off the bike, his legs went weak again, almost falling.

After parking the bike, he rushed inside, full of zeal.

He’s been to the hospital many times and already knows where the delivery room is.

Just as he arrived at the delivery room entrance, he heard heart-wrenching screams from inside.

The sound was almost cracking, indicating the immense pain the person inside was enduring.

Qin Yang’s face instantly turned pale, his hands trembling uncontrollably, and he fixated on the delivery room door, almost ready to rush in without thinking.

A hand grabbed his arm, and Qin Yang, with red eyes, turned his head, “Releasing… wife… wife?”

Lin Chuxia supported her waist with one hand and held him with the other, her eyes sparkling while she grinned showing her little white teeth, “You’re here, so quick?”

Qin Yang was dumbfounded, looking at her, then at the delivery room, finally resting his firm gaze on Lin Chuxia, holding her arm, “I heard from Sister-in-law Fu that you were about to give birth, how are you feeling?”

“When the bleeding started, I tried to call you twice but couldn’t get through. Fearing I wouldn’t handle driving if the pain started and that you might not be at work, I drove over here first. Doctor Wang just checked, the cervix is only slightly open. He told me to wander around a bit…”

Before she could finish her sentence, a frown appeared, and her grip on Qin Yang’s arm tightened involuntarily.

“What’s wrong, my wife? Is it painful? Why don’t you sit down for a while.”

Qin Yang had read many books about childbirth before, and seeing Lin Chuxia’s appearance now, he quickly realized it was a contraction.

Lin Chuxia waved her hand, enduring the pain until it passed and she felt fine again.

“Doctor Wang said it will hurt for a while, you better go and handle the admission procedures first.”

Qin Yang understood that the labor pains could last for several hours, but he didn’t want to leave Lin Chuxia alone.

Lin Chuxia saw his forehead sweating, his clothes soaked through with perspiration, aware of his worry.

Actually, she saw him as soon as the man showed up, and before she could call him, he was already rushing towards the delivery room.

This was at the hospital, she couldn’t make a racket, and by the time she chased up to him, she saw him about to storm into the delivery room.

If she hadn’t acted quickly, who knows what might have happened.

This man always cares more about her than herself.

“Why don’t I go with you, Doctor Wang advised me to walk around for an easier delivery, just right for a little walk.”

Qin Yang thought about it, indeed it was more reassuring than leaving her alone.

Besides, the admission office wasn’t far.

Once the admission procedures were completed, Lin Chuxia’s contractions became shorter in intervals, and Qin Yang’s face grew paler, leaving the passing doctors and nurses unsure who was actually experiencing the labor pains.

Lin Chuxia couldn’t bear watching him suffer any longer, fearing she wouldn’t go into labor before Qin Yang collapsed, she tried to change the topic, “A girl was born in the delivery room just now. Would you prefer a son or a daughter?”

People often say when the Goddess of Fertility delivers, she does so in waves, so if the previous one had a girl, they are likely to have a girl too.

Lin Chuxia knew Qin Yang wanted a daughter, but what if they had a son? Surely, this guy won’t mind.

Qin Yang may not have even heard what she was saying, nodding vaguely, “Anything is fine, anything. How are you feeling? Is it painful again? It seems it’s been ten minutes, last time your interval was eleven and a half minutes.”

It was fine until he mentioned it; as soon as he spoke, the contractions started again.

Doctor Wang came over to help her with an examination, calling the nurse to take her into the delivery room.

Lin Chuxia lay on the delivery bed, and as the door closed halfway, unable to see Qin Yang’s anxious face, she breathed a sigh of relief.

The delivery process was not as painful as she had imagined.

The nurse gave her an oxytocin injection, and Doctor Wang artificially ruptured her amniotic sac.

Without the cushioning of the amniotic fluid, she discovered how truly painful contractions could be.

Feeling the contractions while following the doctor’s commands to exert force repeatedly, just when she thought she couldn’t bear it, her belly suddenly felt loose, followed by the loud and pleasant cry of a newborn baby.

It was the arrival of new life.

All the pain vanished for Lin Chuxia, left only with immense joy, indescribable joy.

“It’s a daughter, looks just like her mother, very beautiful.”

Doctor Wang cradled the child and showed her.

Lin Chuxia felt weak all over, but clearly saw the little one, flailing limbs, crying with an open mouth.

Wonderful!

……

Meanwhile, a series of hurried footsteps echoed in the Yan City Government Guest House.

Knocking sounded at the door, and as soon as Zhuang Jingshu called out to enter, the door was pushed open.

Zhuang Yang came in from outside, keeping the door ajar, looking at Zhuang Jingshu inside, panting heavily, sweat sliding down the forehead.

“Chairman,” he called softly, raising the documents in his other hand, “There’s news from there, this is the fax just sent over.”

Zhuang Jingshu suddenly stood up, her urgent demeanor utterly inconsistent with her usual calm and gentle demeanor.

Zhuang Yang was also startled, taking several steps forward to support her arm.

“Chairman, the doctor said you mustn’t be anxious. The results are out, take a look slowly.”

He handed the documents into Zhuang Jingshu’s hands.

Zhuang Jingshu nodded and sat down slowly again.

“Alright, I’ll take a look calmly.”

She said she’d look calmly, but directly flipped to the last page.
