Because of the lack of maternal love in her childhood, Su Qingsang’s expectations of it had almost disappeared with age.
Out of the blue, a woman came to her claiming to be her mother. She really didn’t know how to get along with her.
Soon the car stopped at the hospital. Huo Jinyao squeezed her hand before she got out of the car.
“Honey, don’t feel burdened. Whatever decision you make, I’m with you,” he said.
Su Qingsang looked at him, feeling the warmth of his palm. She felt relieved and peaceful.
She leaned forward and kissed him on the lips, which she seldom did. She said, “Yes, I know.”
As she backed off, Su Qingsang said, with a smile in her eyes, “Thank you, Huo Jinyao.”
She had never known before what it felt like to have someone who always thought of her, protected her, and respected her in everything.
Given time, she thought she could fall in love with Huo Jinyao. Maybe she was already starting to fall in love with him already. Her eyes, when she looked at Huo Jinyao, were much softer than they had been in the morning.
“For what?” Huo Jinyao squeezed her palm. “You are my wife. You never have to say thank you to me.”
Su Qingsang nodded to him and hurried off to the hospital.
The pregnant woman’s condition was so bad that the doctors had decided unanimously that she needed to have a caesarean section. Su Qingsang and Director Zhang went into the operation room together to perform the operation.
After the operation, there came another pregnant woman who had jumped from a building. Her husband had been beating her and cheating on her, so this 8-month-pregnant woman had jumped off a building with her baby in her belly.
Su Qingsang had no time to criticize the husband now. The woman had jumped from the fifth floor and was blocked by the security window below her, which had softened the impact.
She did not die immediately, but the child was in bad shape.
Having no time for other things, she and Director Zhang went into another operating room as soon as they came out of the previous one.
Hours of work finally pulled the pregnant woman back from the line of death. They also saved the child.
The pregnant woman regretted it as soon as she started to fall and she tried her best to protect the baby in her belly so that the baby could live. The pregnant woman herself broke her legs and an arm.
The first thing she did when she woke up was look at her baby. The moment she knew the baby was all right, she burst into tears in the ward.
Watching that scene, Su Qingsang was touched and also emotional.
Since she had chosen the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, she had delivered hundreds of babies. She was still being moved by the mothers every time.
She was reminded of Xiang Caiping. Maybe she had given birth to her full of expectations and hope but had had no choice but to send her to Su Chenghui.
Did she hesitate for a long time? Su Qingsang wondered.
She might as well start accepting Xiang Caiping.
When Huo Jinyao came to pick her up from work, he found that Su Qingsang was in a better mood. The change was evident.
“What happened? Something good?”
“Yeah.” Su Qingsang nodded, with the corners of her mouth tilting upward. “I’ve decided,” she said.
“What?”
“I’ll accept her.”
Huo Jinyao was very aware of who “her” was. He smiled and reached out to take her hand.
“So, do you still need to do a DNA test?”
