Chapter 790 - 791: The Grand Finale (2)
Shi Mei recoiled her hands and feet in fright at the sound.
Perhaps the movement was too abrupt; her stomach pained her sharply.
At this sharp pain, Shi Mei’s face instantly contorted.
Granny Tang saw Shi Mei’s posture and immediately scolded, "You’re not listening again!"
As she walked over, she noticed Shi Mei’s pale face.
Shi Mei paled, saying, "Granny... I... my stomach hurts..."
This time the pain was different from the sudden aches before; it was persistent and more intense than ever.
Granny Tang, hearing this, stayed calm, saying, "How can it be so soon? These doctors and their due dates are like playing a joke."
Shi Mei felt her stomach pain intensify and struggled to rise from the floor, saying, "Granny..."
"Lie down, there’s more pain to come."
Shi Mei: "..." Sobbing.
Damn it hurts!
Grimacing, Shi Mei attempted to get up from the floor when familiar footsteps approached from the outside.
She yelled loudly, "Help me, Ah Ling!"
Shi Lingyan’s heart skipped a beat, and he rushed in immediately, saying, "What happened?"
Seeing his reaction, Shi Mei cried, "I’m going to have the baby!"
Shi Lingyan felt like his nerves were instantly on edge, somewhat panicked, he moved forward in a fluster, saying, "How can it be so soon? Isn’t there still a week left... this..."
Shi Lingyan wanted to hold her, but unsure if he should touch her, his forehead quickly began to sweat.
Shi Mei reached out to grab his hand, saying, "Help me up, to the hospital."
"Ah, oh, okay," Shi Lingyan quickly scooped her up horizontally, "Let’s go, to the hospital."
"Why the rush," Grandma Shi said with a look of disdain for their lack of worldly experience, "Wait a moment, what if she’s not really giving birth yet and it’s just playful pain?"
But Shi Lingyan didn’t listen to her and hurriedly ran off with his wife.
It turned out the old people’s experience was right.
When Shi Lingyan got her to the hospital, the doctors checked and indeed confirmed she was close to delivery, but they still had to wait.
Shi Mei screamed in pain, and Shi Lingyan anxiously sought the doctor multiple times.
At last, even the doctor couldn’t help but smile, "Don’t worry, young man, your wife’s fetal position is perfect, she’ll naturally give birth when it’s time."
Shi Lingyan, sweating profusely, exclaimed, "How long must we wait then? Can’t you give her something for the pain? It’s just childbirth, how can it be this painful!"
An old man beside them laughed heartily, "Childbirth is naturally painful. In ancient times, it was like a trip through the gates of hell. Don’t worry, why not go buy some food to eat in the meantime, and feed her as well, else she might not have the energy to give birth later."
Shi Lingyan felt mocked and annoyed.
After getting nowhere with the doctor, he returned to his wife’s side, gripping her hand, saying, "Don’t cry, I’m here."
"Ah, I’m never doing this again!"
"Okay, okay, we’re not doing this again," Shi Lingyan, heartbroken, assured, "Never again."
Shi Mei: "Sob, if it’s a boy, call him ’Pain’, if it’s a girl, call her ’Ache’."
Shi Lingyan: "... Do we really need to name them now?"
Shi Mei yelled: "I don’t care!!"
"Okay, okay, you decide, let’s make him suffer forever for causing mom this pain!"
Fighting back tears, Shi Mei’s face was streaked with tears, but her mood had finally improved a lot.
