Chapter 918: Chapter 918: Arranging Surgery Chapter 918: Chapter 918: Arranging Surgery “Butler Ling, we’re all ready. The room is on the second floor, around the corner. It’s a nice and quiet environnt, suitable for a pregnant woman,” Xiaoyue pointed not far away.
“Alright, you go and tidy up the room. I’ll stay here and watch things,” Butler Ling said.
“Okay.” Xiaoyue and Sister Zheng answered in unison and left the area.
“Old Cheng, are you tired from driving? Sit down and rest for a while,” Butler Ling said.
“What’s there to be tired about,” Old Cheng waved his hand, “Now that we’re here, we should call Young Master Shen Chi promptly, we must find him.”
“Yes, usually, Young Master Shen Chi would be worried sick about even the slightest bump to his grandma. Giving birth to a child, he wouldn’t neglect it,” Butler Ling sighed and took out his mobile phone.
Old Cheng was silent; could Young Master Shen Chi feel uncomfortable because he thought the child belonged to soone else…
But when they called again, there was still no response.
At the Ji Family residence, on the balcony.
Shen Chi was discussing with Ji Shengxuan how to further finance the comrcial street and how to maximize risk avoidance. He didn’t notice his phone lighting up nurous tis.
The al lasted a long ti for the two, and Ji Shengxuan opened another bottle of fine red wine.
Just as they talked about governnt-level matters, Ahuang, the big yellow cat, started “owing” loudly, walking towards the balcony as it called out.
It ran so fast that the servant couldn’t catch up with it.
When it reached Ji Shengxuan’s feet, the servant finally caught up, out of breath, and apologetically said, “Young Master Ji, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I wasn’t able to look after Ahuang, and it disturbed you.”
Ji Shengxuan wasn’t angry; instead, he bent down and picked up Ahuang from the ground.
“ow, ow…” Ahuang owed at Ji Shengxuan a few tis and scratched at Ji Shengxuan’s clothes with its paws.
“Have you had lunch?” Ji Shengxuan asked Ahuang.
With its sly big eyes wide open, Ahuang certainly wouldn’t answer Ji Shengxuan, but just looked around with its little head.
The servant replied, “It did, but didn’t eat much.”
As Ji Shengxuan played with Ahuang, Shen Chi took a few sips of red wine and casually picked up his mobile phone.
If he hadn’t looked, it would have been all right, but just one look, and he was completely shocked.
There were more than twenty missed calls, and most of them ca from Waterside Pavilion and Butler Ling!
It had only been the ti to eat a al; what had happened?
A hint of foreboding slipped through his mind as he quickly left the balcony and found a quiet place to return a call to Butler Ling.
“Butler, what’s happening?” Shen Chi’s deep voice carried a touch of urgency.
So many calls, it must have sothing to do with Chaomu, right?
Could it be…
“Young Master Shen Chi, I’m outside the maternity ward at the First Hospital,” said Butler Ling, getting straight to the point. She knew that Shen Chi was smart and would understand instantly.
Sure enough, a flicker of panic crossed Shen Chi’s eyes, maternity ward, maternity ward…
“Is Chaomu giving birth?”
“Yes… no, not exactly,” Butler Ling didn’t know how to explain, “Young Master, please co here, the building on the west side of the hospital, second level, it’s easy to find, I and Old Cheng are both here.”
“I understand,” Shen Chi hung up the phone!
As soon as he hung up, Shen Chi went back to the balcony to grab his coat and apologized, “Shengxuan, sorry, I have sothing urgent, I need to leave first.”
After saying that, without waiting for Ji Shengxuan to speak, he quickly walked out of Ji Shengxuan’s villa.
“Shen Chi!” Ji Shengxuan called out.
But in no ti, Shen Chi was already far away.
Ji Shengxuan frowned, what could be so urgent?
Ahuang nestled in Ji Shengxuan’s arms, “owing.”
The servant also widened her eyes, “Young Master Ji… why did Mr. Shen suddenly… leave?”
She thought it might be her fault and was sowhat perturbed.
“It’s alright, you may leave,” Ji Shengxuan said.
“Okay, okay.”
Ji Shengxuan watched from the balcony as Shen Chi had already opened the car door and quickly got into the driver’s seat, leaving behind the docunts and laptop at his house.
Ji Shengxuan frowned, squinting out of the window.
Leaving in such a hurry, could there have been an accident involving that girl?
After all, aside from Xu Chaomu, he had never seen Shen Chi flustered over anything.
If he rembered correctly, that girl was over seven months pregnant. Could it be… a premature birth?
With these thoughts, Ji Shengxuan’s frown deepened as he continued to stare out the window.
Soon, Shen Chi’s car was out of sight.
Upon exiting the Ji Family residence, Shen Chi drove straight in the direction of the First Hospital.
Only then did he flip open his phone and realized that the first call from Waterside Pavilion had co half an hour ago!
He felt sowhat annoyed. How could he have not noticed an incoming call, especially at a ti like this!
He quickly called the butler, Ling, back, “What’s the situation now?”
The butler, Ling, said with anxiety, “She’s still in the delivery room, hasn’t co out.”
“Call imdiately if there’s any situation,” Shen Chi said with a furrowed brow, raising his voice!
“Yes, Fourth Young Master,” the butler replied.
She could tell that the Fourth Young Master was truly in a hurry.
“Fourth Young Master, where are you now?”
“On the way there.”
“I heard from Old Cheng that… you ca back last night.”
“Hmm.”
“Alright, alright, I’ll wait for you,” the butler, Ling, didn’t dare to ask more.
Shen Chi hung up the phone, floored the gas pedal, and dashed towards the hospital, completely disregarding red lights and green lights.
A layer of frost covered his stern face, and his already deep eyes seed bottomless. Upon hearing the news, he felt as though he had plunged into an ice cellar, his body cold.
Xu Chaomu won’t have an accident, nor will her child.
Yet… she was over seven months along, and the premature birth was inextricably linked to him.
At the mont, Shen Chi felt extrely anxious and uneasy. He had really not anticipated her going into premature labor…
If he had the slightest foresight, he would never have left after seeing her this morning.
He gripped the steering wheel tightly, his thin lips pursed, his face tense. The temperature inside the car seed to have dropped to freezing point!
At the hospital, outside the delivery room.
The butler, Ling, sat down and stood up repeatedly, full of anxiety.
Xu Chaomu was without her mother and did not get along well with Zhou Ran. The butler, Ling, felt truly sorry for Xu Chaomu.
“Sigh…” She sighed. She definitely wouldn’t leave Xu Chaomu alone at such a ti.
“Don’t worry, don’t worry,” Old Cheng comforted her.
No sooner had he spoken than a doctor in a white coat approached.
“Who is the family of the pregnant woman?”
The butler, Ling, and Old Cheng exchanged glances. The butler asked, “What’s the matter?”
“There are a few places that need signing so we can proceed with the surgery,” the doctor said calmly.
“Can it wait a bit?” asked the butler.
“No, it cannot. The consent needs to be signed imdiately, whether you agree or not,” the doctor stated sternly.
