Helian Niancheng accompanied her. While Gu Xiaobao was at his kindergarten.
The delivery wasn’t as smooth as it was for Gu Xiaobao. Gu Qingjiu struggled in the hospital for a long time.
The labor started in the morning and the child was not out yet even in the evening.
Probably realizing something, Gu Xiaobao kicked a fuss about wanting to see his mother after returning from kindergarten. Unable to shake him off, his family eventually brought him to the hospital.
The moment Gu Xiaobao arrived, Gu Qingjiu felt herself escape the doors of hell. The child was finally out.
“Wahhhhh…”
The wails of the infant rang out. The worried group outside finally heaved a sigh of relief.
When they rolled Gu Qingjiu out, a group of people rushed forward to see her.
Helian Niancheng only had Gu Qingjiu in his eyes and mind. The silent man had already stood outside for the entire day.
He could hear Gu Qingjiu’s painful screams and those sounds clung onto him as they tore at his heart.
Seeing Gu Qingjiu once again, there was a sheen of perspiration on the usually indifferent and proud man. “No more after this.”
Gu Qingjiu nodded miserably. “I’m never giving birth again!”
Gu Xiaobao rushed forward. Seeing the terrible state of his mother, he cried. “Wah… Mom, what happened to you? Mom, are you okay?”
Gu Qingjiu spent great effort to stroke Gu Xiaobao’s head. As she was rolled into the ward, she comforted Gu Xiaobao, “Xiaobao, I’m okay. I will get better with some rest.”
How was Gu Xiaobao expected to believe those words?
His mom had a terrifyingly pale complexion and was drenched in her sweat. Her wet hair stuck to her face and there was no color to her face.
Just looking at it was frightening enough.
She appeared completely dazed too.
Afraid that the sight would distress him further, Hilda quickly scooped him up and comforted him while instructing the others to keep an eye on the newborn.
The doctor offered his congratulations. It was a baby girl.
Many people were delighted when they heard that it was a girl.
After all, now that they had Gu Xiaobao, a girl would naturally be the best thing that could happen.
After people offered their words of comfort to Gu Qingjiu, they left the ward to visit the newborn.
Helian Niancheng stayed by Gu Qingjiu’s side. She smiled weakly at him. “Not going to see the baby?”
Helian Niancheng shook his head. “Not going. I will keep you company.”
It was the same when Gu Xiaobao was born. He didn’t take the first opportunity to see the baby and instead stayed by her side.
Looking at his mother, Gu Xiaobao became increasingly upset the more he thought about it.
If he never wanted a younger sister, Mom wouldn’t have to give birth and they wouldn’t be this upset.
The root of all this was himself!
Gu Xiaobao eyed Helian Niancheng beside him. No. He wasn’t going to unjustly take all the responsibility.
Suddenly, Gu Xiaobao shook Helian Niancheng’s leg and sobbed. “It’s all your fault. If it weren’t for us, why would Mom have to give birth to this useless younger sister! If anything happens to Mom, it will all be your fault!”
Helian Niancheng was speechless.
This vexing son. He wanted to beat him up.
Gu Qingjiu was speechless.
She was dying of laughter inwardly. ‘Son, please. Your mother is already miserable, stop trying to make me laugh.’
Even laughing was painful for her now.
