Chapter 482 - Childbirth

In the delivery room, Shangguan Ning’s face was completely red as sweat trickled down her face. The violent pain made her burst out in screams.

She heard Mu Xin talking to her in a steady tone.

“Ning, push when I tell you to and hold your breath when I ask. The baby depends on you!”

As a matter of fact, Shangguan Ning was not doing well, or to be more precise, she was in a very serious situation. But Mu Xin knew that she needed to give encouragement to her, otherwise Shangguan Ning would faint.

Mu Xin told her assistant. “Get 400CC blood to her and pitocin.”

Shangguan Ning felt that she was running out of strength. She wanted to close her eyes and go to sleep. She felt that Mu Xin’s voices were fading away.

But she must not sleep, absolutely not!

She must give birth to the child!

She had nurtured him for so long. She wanted to see what he looked like!

Jing Yichen must be waiting for her and the child, she must keep going on!

Shangguan Ning used her final strength to get the child out of her.

Mu Xin kept encouraging her, teaching her the right technique.

…

Outside the delivery room, Jing Yichen was standing still. He had not moved an inch.

His heart felt tightly gripped when he heard Shangguan Ning’s voice weakening.

He heard hurried steps in the corridor.

“Yichen, how is Ning doing?”

This was from Jing Tianyuan.

Jing Yichen, who had been standing like a statue, turned around instantly when he heard the voice.

He did not turn to Jing Tianyuan, but to Mu Wensheng who was with him.

Jing Yichen said to Mu Wensheng with a hoarse voice, “Grandpa Mu, please go in and check on Ning.”

But Mu Wensheng shook his head, and said, “Mu Xin specialises in gynaecology and obstetrics and is very experienced. She has not come out, means that she can still handle what is happening inside and I am not needed. Your wife must be going through a relatively safe situation. What you need to do is to sit here and wait.”

Jing Yichen was still anxious and was about to talk to him further when Mu Wensheng said, “It might not be a good thing for me to enter the room and disturb the childbirth. The baby is already more than seven months old, and if no accident happens, Mu Xin is definitely going to make sure that they both are fine. Trust me, I was Mu Xin’s mentor. I know how capable she is!”

Although Jing Yichen was still feeling very anxious, he believed that Mu Wensheng was not going to be careless about Shangguan Ning and the unborn child.

If he said that Mu Xin could handle it, she would!

The endless fear inside his heart finally faded away. He looked at Jing Tianyuan and said, “Grandpa, Jing Yiran has taken away the shares of Jingsheng Enterprise and also has my declaration of giving up the rights of inheritance.”

Jing Tianyuan said calmly, “It is okay. He will not be able to get even a penny. Your father is on his way to deal with him. He may think that we will not kill him, just because he has the Jing Family’s blood. But now, he has crossed all limits. He will die now.”

Having said the words, he frowned at Jing Yichen. “Go and get changed! Do you think that your wife will be pleased to see you like this after childbirth? Don’t catch a cold or infect my great-grandson!”

Jing Tianyuan’s words worked better than anyone else’s. Jing Yichen instantly asked Tiger to get him a new outfit.

Tiger soon brought the clothes and Jing Yichen changed quickly before returning to stand outside the delivery room, waiting in silence and suffering.

Neither Mu Wensheng nor Jing Tianyuan left. They took a seat on the bench outside the delivery room.

Jing Tianyuan was also very anxious and nervous, fearing that something would happen to Shangguan Ning and the child.

But he knew Mu Wensheng well. He would never leave someone to die. If he was not in the delivery room yet, it meant that Shangguan Ning was doing fine.

Time passed one second after another. A little while later, a baby’s cry arose from the delivery room. Initially, the crying did not sound real, but started getting clearer and clearer behind the closed doors.

Jing Yichen shivered in disbelief. His eyes dazzled with joy.

Jing Tianyuan sprang up from the chair and looked even more excited than Jing Yichen. “Ah, my great-grandson is here! Listen, he sounds so loud, he must be very strong!”

He was so happy that he just couldn’t stop talking. He paced back and forth in the corridor, showing much more excitement than Jing Yichen.

Mu Wensheng looked at him with displeasure. “Alright, alright, stop pacing back and forth! My eyes are getting a strain. My granddaughter inherited my skills. She has delivered thousands of babies and not failed even once. She is indeed excellent!”

Jing Tianyuan waved at Mu Wensheng. “I will definitely remember her hard work, but why is my great-grandson not here yet?”

Hearing what Jing Tianyuan said, Jing Yichen turned to look at Mu Wensheng as well. He wanted to go in and have a look at them.

Mu Wensheng rolled his eyes at his old friend. “You are getting stupid in your old age. After the child is born, the mother is going to see him first to check the gender. Then the baby will be bathed before you are allowed to take a look at him. So uneducated!”

Actually, although Mu Wensheng was blaming Jing Tianyuan for being uneducated, he was also very eager to see the newly-born.

Old people tended to have a soft corner for children. It didn’t take long before a doctor carried the child out.

Jing Tianyuan and Mu Wensheng bent forward to take the first look at the baby.

Jing Yichen, however, ignored the child but walked into the delivery room.

The delivery room had been tidied up by the doctors, but traces of blood were all around.

Shangguan Ning’s sweat-covered face had been wiped by Mu Xin, and when she saw Jing Yichen, she smiled at him weakly.

Jing Yichen finally felt assured. He took hold of Shangguan Ning’s cold hands and kissed her lips. He said, “Ning, I am really sorry that you had to go through so much!”

Shangguan Ning wanted to respond to him, but she failed to do so because of her lack of strength.

But she was satisfied now. She had seen her child and heard his cry. She had made it!

She closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Seeing Shangguan Ning closing her eyes, Jing Yichen got so frightened that he cried out, “Doctor, please check her!”

Mu Xin got startled by the sudden cry of Jing Yichen. She turned to Shangguan Ning. She felt her pulse before saying in a relieved tone, “She is just tired and has fallen asleep. She is fine.”
