She spoke softly, unaware that his heart tightened with her words.
He gently patted her back, constantly reassuring, "Alright, we won’t have any more children in the future."
"...Yeah, no more children."
Su Xiaong murmured, feeling that sothing was a bit strange with the words, but at this mont, her scalp was numb from the pain, and she couldn’t grasp what it was.
Xiao ng entered the delivery room at noon.
Yin Shixiu stood outside the delivery room, unable to articulate the complex emotions intersecting within him at that mont.
Worry, nervousness, a bit of panic, a lot of helplessness—this feeling of being uselessly anxious was really unsettling for him.
Today, Xiao ng was especially strong, but the stronger she was, the more his heart ached.
Is this how all n feel when their wives give birth?
Wishing he could be the one in the delivery room instead, to avoid this anxious state.
"It’s okay, the doctor said ng ng’s body is very healthy, and with a cesarean, there shouldn’t be any problems."
Su’s mother walked up to Yin Shixiu and said.
Yin Shixiu responded, "You guys should wait in the waiting room."
"No hurry."
"Actually, it’s really okay if you didn’t co."
Su’s mother said.
She’s not unreasonable, and Xiao ng is not inconsiderate.
Being a week and a half short of the due date, who would have thought?
They are ordinary people, but Yin Shixiu is a big boss, signing a contract involves tens of millions or even billions of funds moving around.
With modern dicine so advanced, and Xiao ng in good health, with no issues in her prenatal check-ups.
In such a situation, even if Yin Shixiu couldn’t make it, she would find it understandable.
"I only have one wife, and she probably will only give birth once in this life. There’s so little I can do, but at least when we get old, when she talks to the kids about it, this Dad can say he did sothing."
Su’s mother walked to the side, thinking... perhaps Yin Shixiu is indeed different from others.
As a man with a strong background and rich family resources.
Su’s mother pursed her lips, and just then, Yin Shixiu’s phone rang...
He glanced at the caller ID, it was Yin ng.
He picked it up, "Hello..."
"Uncle, isn’t Xiao ng almost due?"
"Uncle?"
"...She has already entered the delivery room, a week early."
Yin Shixiu explained.
"What! She’s already started?"
"...Yeah."
"Oh my..."
"Is there sothing you need?"
"I was going to ask about the due date, I was planning to co over..."
Yin ng said, with Yin Shaohui winking at her from the side.
"Oh... Uncle, how long has she been in there?"
"Just went in. I’ll call you when it’s over."
"Okay, okay!"
Yin ng hung up the phone and hurriedly told Yin Shaohui and Zhou ngqin, "She just entered the delivery room."
Yin Shaohui clasped his hands, pacing back and forth.
Zhou ngqin glanced at the ti and silently calculated.
Yin Shixiu leaned against the wall, and after more than two hours, the delivery room door opened, followed by the clear sound of a baby’s cry.
He looked up, his head buzzing...
"Family of Su Xiaong."
Su’s father and Su’s mother imdiately rushed over, while Yin Shixiu’s feet felt leaden, making him appear a bit slow.
"A boy and a girl. Very healthy."
Su’s mother bead!
"My daughter is amazing!"
"Su Xiaong’s husband..."
Yin Shixiu moved closer, glancing at the two children held by the nurses, his eyes slightly red, his eyes a bit moist...
He looked up, "Where’s Xiao ng?"
"She’ll be sent to the ward later, she’ll wake up once the anesthesia wears off."
"Thank you, doctor, thank you..."
Su’s mother noticed Yin Shixiu’s glistening eyes, chuckled lightly, and patted his shoulder, "Congratulations, Mr. Yin, a son and a daughter."
Yin Shixiu smiled, and actually let two tears fall, "Mom, thank you..."
Yin Shixiu walked into the maternity ward, and the two little ones were already in the cribs beside the big bed.
Two nurses were attending to them.
Seeing Yin Shixiu enter, the young nurse quickly said, "Mr. Yin, congratulations indeed."
Yin Shixiu nodded slightly, then went straight to Su Xiaong’s bedside, where Xiao ng lay with her eyes closed, her lips very dry.
"Your wife is so cute."
The two nurses were the ones who helped deliver in the delivery room earlier.
Thinking about when Su Xiaong was giving birth, they still found it amusing.
Yin Shixiu raised his eyebrows slightly.
The young nurse said, "In the delivery room just now, Mrs. Yin was having trouble delivering, but when she heard cesarean babies could be less smart, she persevered with natural delivery... it took our doctor quite a while to persuade her to agree reluctantly."
Yin Shixiu looked at the little girl on the hospital bed—she really went through a lot.
"Then after the surgery, she glanced at the baby and mumbled sothing like ’Hmm, not bad, not bad...’ then actually fell asleep."
Hmm... not bad, not bad...
Yin Shixiu chuckled lightly, who knows what she was thinking at that mont...
The nurse finished speaking and then explained the specifics about the two babies, who is the brother, who is the sister, their weights, and so on...
Only then did she leave the ward.
Yin Shixiu saw Su Xiaong with her eyes closed, so he didn’t disturb her and walked to the crib, looking at the two little ones, feeling overwhelming joy.
He took photo after photo with his phone, never seeming to get enough.
But in the end, his cara focused on Su Xiaong’s face...
Xiaong couldn’t sleep for long, as the pain pulled her out of her dreams once the anesthesia wore off.
She slightly furrowed her brows, her body very weak...
Yin Shixiu saw she was awake, so he sat by the bed, smiling at her tenderly and gratefully, "ng ng, you’ve worked hard..."
Su Xiaong looked at him, his excitent barely concealing his tired appearance, listened to him say this sentence...
It seed as if all the hardship and endurance had beco worthwhile.
Her hands, still with an IV drip, erged from under the covers, slowly reaching out to him, her watery eyes looking at him, and simply uttered two words, "Hug ..."
Yin Shixiu was montarily stunned and quickly leaned in carefully so she could wrap her arms around his neck.
He rested his forehead against hers, kissing her nose.
Su Xiaong closed her eyes, slling the faint tobacco scent on him. He smoked, though only occasionally, and never in front of her.
But this faint smoke sll seed to beco a unique marker on him, mixed with a slight mint scent, always intoxicating.
"Where are Dad and Mom?"
"They went back to cook and will co over later."
Yin Shixiu spoke softly.
Su Xiaong looked at him, squinting her eyes with a gentle smile, her weak expression mixed with pride, softly asking, "Am I aweso?"
"Aweso!"
"Do you admit it?"
"I admit it, I’m utterly convinced. Anyway, I can’t give birth."
Yin Shixiu knew her incision must be hurting now, so seeing her smiling face made her even more beautiful.
At this mont, the Yin Family was having dinner, but the atmosphere was exceptionally strange at this al.
Yin ng’s phone was just placed on the table.
The two elders of the Yin Family pretended not to care, but their hearts were set on that phone, just waiting for news.
Yin ng was anxious too; it had been almost five hours, and there was still no news?
"Ah!"
Shan Minglang suddenly shouted!
This startled everyone whose hearts were already in their throats!
Yin Shaohui imdiately glared over, saying sternly, "What are you shouting suddenly for?"
Shan Minglang held up his phone, and quickly said, "Uncle just posted on Weibo!"
"...What?"
Yin ng was stunned, Yin Shixiu... posted on Weibo?
She knew Yin Shixiu had a Weibo account, but that account was practically more inactive than a zombie!
She had thought of unfollowing him nurous tis.
But today this zombie account posted?!
She snatched Shan Minglang’s phone and saw Yin Shixiu had only posted three photos, two babies and a... woman.
Alongside were two words: Mine.
Yin ng instantly yelled out in excitent!
"They’ve been born, been born!"
"Boy or girl?"
Yin Shaohui asked anxiously.
Yin ng held the phone up to Yin Shaohui, enlarging the images for him...
On the crib’s card faintly read "girl."
Yin Shaohui nodded quickly, "Girls are good, girls are good!"
Yin ng also thought girls were good, surely she’d look like Xiaong when she grew up!
Zhou ngqin maintained a calm expression, but her eyes couldn’t help but drift over to Yin ng, coldly asking, "Isn’t there supposed to be twins... Where’s the other one?"
Yin ng was startled by Zhou ngqin’s question, then delighted, and quickly swiped to the next photo and eagerly showed the grandmother, "Grandma, look, haha, so cute!"
Zhou ngqin looked at the red, plump little one, and finally showed a slight smile.
"Eh?" Yin ng enlarged the photo and saw the crib in this picture faintly displayed... boy!
"...Boy! This one is a boy!"
She exclaid in delight!
Yin Shaohui and Zhou ngqin were stunned to see Yin ng happily saying, "Wow, I have a little nephew and a little niece now!"
"Wow... Aunt actually gave birth to a pair of twins! Amazing."
Shan Minglang quickly added.
Yin Shaohui’s old face couldn’t help but light up with joy. Of course, girls are great, but having a son for Shixiu was even more perfect.
"Grandma, isn’t ng ng amazing?"
Yin ng seized the opportunity to praise Su Xiaong in front of Zhou ngqin.
Zhou ngqin cleared her throat, asking coldly, "So how’s that girl... doing?"
Yin ng quickly showed her the photo. Actually, this picture didn’t resemble Su Xiaong much at all...
In Yin ng’s eyes, Xiaong was always full of energy, vibrant, with big eyes and chubby cheeks.
Seeing her now lying in a hospital bed, lips dry, hair a bit greasy, eyes closed, looking unbelievably weak, really felt unfamiliar and made one heartache...
Zhou ngqin and Yin Shaohui looked at the photo and just couldn’t get used to seeing the girl like this...
They both felt a bit uneasy in their hearts.
Yin Shixiu’s call ca leisurely after dinner, a few simple words, and it ended.
Su Xiaong saw he was in a good mood after the call, so she asked, "Was that Mr. Yin and Mrs. Yin?"
"...ng ng answered."
Su Xiaong simply "oh," feeling a bit disappointed.
