Qin Yang chose a spot a little further away for the two of them and let Lin Chuxia sit down.
Then he took out so water from his bag and let her drink a couple of sips first.
After putting down the cup, he took out a folding fan and stood next to her, fanning her.
Ever since the onset of sumr, Lin Chuxia had beco especially sensitive to heat. At ho, she wished for the fan to always blow directly at her, and when going out, she always carried a small fan.
Qin Yang knew she was afraid of heat, so whenever he was around, he’d always fan her.
This gesture was commonplace between them but drew the attention of surrounding onlookers.
Especially the woman who ca with her husband, her complaints grew louder.
"Look at other husbands, they know to bring a fan. You, on the other hand, don’t want to think about anything all day long. How did I end up marrying such a useless person? Worthless and troubleso, I said you didn’t need to co, but you insisted. Now I’m suffering because of it."
The man had a good temper and coaxed her gently, "Okay, okay, I’ll be more mindful next ti. I’ll bring you a fan next ti."
After speaking, he gave a resentful glance at Qin Yang and Lin Chuxia.
Lin Chuxia pursed her lips and also glanced at Qin Yang.
To be honest, in this day and age, how many husbands who accompany their wives for check-ups have bad tempers?
Those with bad tempers who don’t care about their wives wouldn’t co at all.
The woman continued to complain when suddenly the sound of hurried footsteps ca from the end of the hallway, along with a man’s shout and a woman’s painful moans...
A man, carrying a woman, quickly ran over from that side, shouting for a doctor as he ran.
Imdiately, a passing doctor pushed an ergency bed over, instructing him to put the woman on it.
It was only then visible that the woman’s belly was significantly swollen — she was pregnant and seed about to give birth.
After placing the woman properly, the doctors and family mbers of the patient pushed the ergency bed swiftly towards the delivery room.
After the chaos, only the woman’s anguished cries remained, one after another, miserable and haunting.
Until the delivery room door closed, only then did it block out part of the sound.
The corridor was quiet for a brief mont, then the woman beside them suddenly started crying.
"It’s terrifying. I don’t want to have children anymore. Can I not have them?"
The man again comforted her with kind words.
Fortunately, it was almost their turn for the check-up, so the two of them entered the examination room, and the hallway fell silent again.
Qin Yang continued fanning Lin Chuxia steadily, noticing her still staring intently in the direction of the delivery room. With his other hand, he gently touched her hair, "Were you also frightened?"
Inside, he was equally unsettled.
He saw the woman bleed a lot, the blood even staining the man’s clothes.
Lin Chuxia shook her head. While childbirth is arduous, it is essentially a natural occurrence in the continuation of life.
She had seen Jiang Hong give birth, and it wasn’t this frightening.
Most likely, the woman encountered so unforeseen incident.
The reason she stared so long was to identify the two people.
Earlier, it was chaotic; the woman’s hair was scattered, almost concealing her face.
With dical staff busy around her, she could only see the man’s profile, resembling Yang Rui.
Now, with the dical staff and the woman all in the delivery room, only the man waited at the door.
A slight turn verified his identity: it was indeed Yang Rui.
aning, the woman giving birth inside should be Tang Lili.
After this incident, no one spoke, leaving the corridor in silence.
The couple who went in ca out, and the woman’s feelings had cald significantly. She no longer shouted about not wanting children; presumably, the doctor had offered plenty of comforting words.
After the woman who ca alone for her check-up went in and ca out, it was Lin Chuxia’s turn.
The doctor observed her healthy complexion and imdiately gained confidence, even complinting her several tis.
In these tis, it’s indeed rare to see soone maintain such good health during pregnancy.
After so basic inquiries, Lin Chuxia was asked to lie down for the next step of the examination when there was a knock at the consultation room door.
A nurse pushed the door open and entered, "Doctor Wang, there’s a patient in the delivery room with a difficult labor situation, it’s critical. Doctor Li asked to get you to lend a hand."
Upon hearing this, Doctor Wang imdiately put down the stethoscope, "What’s the situation?"
While inquiring, she started preparing herself.
"The fetal position is incorrect. She’s only a few days away from her due date, but she fell this morning, and her water broke. No one was ho, and after a neighbor found her and called her husband back, they brought her to the hospital. The cervix is fully dilated, but only one leg ca out first."
"One leg?" Doctor Wang turned her head abruptly to inquire.
"Yes, one leg. By the ti she reached the hospital, a little foot was already out and has been stuck there since..."
Doctor Wang, in a rush, put things in order and headed out without saying goodbye to Lin Chuxia.
Lin Chuxia sat up from the bed and patted Qin Yang’s arm.
"Hmm?"
Qin Yang, startled, turned his head, seeing Lin Chuxia was already sitting up, hurried to assist her.
Lin Chuxia raised a hand to wipe the sweat off his forehead, "It’s okay, you heard too, hers is a special case."
Qin Yang supported her as she got up, nodding repeatedly, "I know... I know, it’s okay... You’re always in good condition, there’s nothing to worry about, I’m not worried..."
Not worried?
The person who was comforting her earlier was now visibly pale with fear.
That sweat isn’t from the heat.
"What should we do? Should we co back tomorrow?" Qin Yang asked.
Mainly, having encountered such a situation today, staying there felt like tornt.
Lin Chuxia didn’t plan to leave, "Since we’re here, let’s wait a bit."
She also wanted to see how things turned out over there.
Seeing Qin Yang restless, she added, "The woman who just entered the delivery room, I know her. She’s the one who argued with Doctor Li during the last check-up."
Qin Yang now rembered as well; they were right next door then.
The doctor had already identified incorrect fetal positioning and asked her to try adjusting it herself at ho.
She didn’t follow the doctor’s instructions and instead blad the doctor for lack of skill.
But how did his wife know her?
Lin Chuxia nodded, "The man with her is Yang Rui, Wang Tianxue’s ex-husband. Back then, Yang Rui cheated on Tang Lili, leading Wang Tianxue to divorce him. The patient in the delivery room is Tang Lili."
...
Half an hour later, Doctor Wang finally returned, seeing Qin Yang and Lin Chuxia still waiting in the consultation room. Only then did she realize she had left so abruptly that she forgot she had patients waiting, promptly apologizing to Lin Chuxia.
Lin Chuxia naturally wouldn’t hold a grudge against the doctor for this.
No matter the situation, life cos first.
For doctors, this belief is their guiding principle.
Doctor Wang made the most appropriate choice in that situation, which Lin Chuxia understood.
Having interacted with Lin Chuxia multiple tis, Doctor Wang had grown quite fond of her.
Especially her rational behavior.
Had it been another patient, they might have complained about her leaving without a word of explanation, not putting the patient first.
Conversing casually while examining her, Lin Chuxia took the opportunity to ask about Tang Lili’s condition.
