Chapter 934: Chapter 934: The Old Drunkard’s Intention Is Not the Wine
Chu Liyuan had just arrived when he saw Mr. Chu also appear…
“Mr. Chu, why are you…” Chu Liyuan started, somewhat puzzled.
“Never mind me!” Chu Liyuan said quietly, and took a seat on a nearby chair…
Chu Liyuan’s behavior left Chu Liyuan completely baffled, and of course, also left Chu Liyuan’s parents clueless.
It wasn’t until Jian Dan arrived that Chu Liyuan finally understood why Mr. Chu was also there.
Seeing Jian Dan’s hurried figure approaching, Chu Liyuan’s eyes shone brightly.
“Uncle, why are you here too?” Jian Dan’s attention was captured by Mr. Chu sitting aside as soon as she arrived.
(Sorry! Even if Jian Dan favored looks over friendship, she had to admit it, as it was Chu Liyuan who had a face one simply couldn’t ignore!)
Before Chu Liyuan could reply, Jian Dan’s gaze had already turned to Chu Liyuan, “How is Xia Mengjiao doing? How long has she been in there?” Premature birth is no joking matter.
“She’s been inside for a while now, and we still don’t know how she’s doing!”
“Really now, how could she suddenly have a premature birth?” Jian Dan asked with some worry.
Just then, the operating room door opened, and a nurse walked out with a file in her hand, “Who here is related to Xia Mengjiao? The patient is having a difficult birth and experiencing heavy bleeding; we need to perform a cesarean section immediately, and require a relative’s signature!”
“Difficult birth? Heavy bleeding? Is it that serious?” Chu Liyuan’s voice clearly trembled.
“What is your relationship to the patient?”
“I’m her husband! Is my wife okay?”
“She needs a cesarean section as soon as possible. Hurry and sign!” the nurse said, handing the file to Chu Liyuan.
Chu Liyuan took the file, and after only half a second of hesitation, signed his own name, because he knew Xia Mengjiao couldn’t afford any delay.
The nurse took the file with Chu Liyuan’s signature, and before heading back to the operating room, she turned and asked Chu Liyuan another question, “If we can only save one, who should it be, the adult or the child?”
“What?” Chu Liyuan’s parents asked with some concern.
“I’m talking about the worst-case scenario!”
“Save the adult!” Chu Liyuan replied without hesitation.
After receiving Chu Liyuan’s answer, the nurse went back into the operating room…
Upon hearing Chu Liyuan’s answer, the corners of Jian Dan’s lips curled up into a smile.
About 20 minutes later, the operating room door finally opened again, and the nurse came out holding a baby in her arms!
“Nurse, is my wife all right?” Chu Liyuan rushed up immediately.
“Congratulations, mother and daughter are safe. Your wife has given you a beautiful little princess!”
Only after hearing that Xia Mengjiao was okay did the worry on Chu Liyuan’s face recede, and his gaze turned to the baby cradled in the nurse’s arms, “Is this my daughter?”
“Yes!” the nurse said, handing the child over to Chu Liyuan.
Chu Liyuan looked at the baby in his arms, his eyes involuntarily filling with tears…
They say that a man does not easily shed tears, but in such a situation, it’s genuinely difficult not to.
When Jian Dan heard that mother and daughter were safe, the heart she had been holding up finally settled down.
“She’s so beautiful! She looks like Xia Mengjiao; she’s definitely going to be a great beauty when she grows up!” Jian Dan said, happily looking at the baby.
“Yes! Yes!” Chu Liyuan was so happy he didn’t know what else to say, and could only smile foolishly while repeating yes!
“Why don’t you go back to the ward and wait! The patient will be sent back soon!” the nurse spoke again.
“Thank you, nurse! You all have worked so hard!” Chu Liyuan’s parents thanked the nurse gratefully.
“It’s what we’re supposed to do!” the nurse said, and then went back into the operating room again.
And they too returned to the ward to wait…
