The light in the ER was still turned on.
The people who were waiting outside paced to and fro anxiously.
Si Zhengting sat on the bench, his eyes narrowed, thinking about how Zhuang Nainai had looked.
Then, he had… deliberately not looked at her, as he was afraid that she would be able to tell what he was thinking.
But now, thinking about it, he didn’t have any idea about how she was.
Si Zhengting picked up his phone and called the housekeeper at the residence. The call went through. He lowered his voice and asked, “What is Madam doing?”
The housekeeper was startled. “Madam’s been taken to the hospital. Her water has broken and she’s going to give birth prematurely.”
Once she said that, Si Zhengting jumped up from the bench. “What did you say?”
Her water’s broken and she’s going to give birth prematurely?
The finger that he was wrapping around his phone suddenly exerted a lot of pressure on it. That strength was about to break the entire phone.
She was about to give birth?
His eyes narrowed. A whirlpool of complex emotions swirled in them.
The housekeeper continued, “Madam is about to give birth. Ah Ya is accompanying her in the hospital.”
After she said this, Si Zhengting ended the call. The hand still wrapped around his phone was trembling. He found Ah Ya’s number and gave her a call.
The call went through very quickly. Ah Ya immediately said, “Mr. Si, rest assured, the doctor has said that the children will definitely be fine.”
Would definitely be fine?
Si Zhengting heaved a sigh of relief. Then, he realized the hidden meaning behind her words. He asked earnestly, “What about the mother? What about Madam?”
“Madam?” Ah Ya seemed to be surprised. “Madam’s having a difficult labor. Didn’t you say that we should save the children? From what the doctor was saying, I think the odds are against Madam.”
Save the children? Odds against her?
After she said this, his eyes narrowed. “What, a difficult labor?!”
After he said this, he immediately got to his feet and headed outside. “Which hospital are you in?”
Ah Ya told him the name of the hospital. Coincidentally, it was in the very same hospital that Si Zhengting was in. He ran toward the gynecology building. He had always been a calm and collected person, but he now ran like a frenzied man. As he ran, he yelled, “Who said that we should save the children? Save the mother! Tell them, if there’s anything wrong with the children’s mother, I’ll let everyone in the hospital be buried with the dead!”
After he finished yelling, he heard the sound of clear and melodious crying over the phone.
Si Zhengting halted in his footsteps, his heartbeat racing.
The children had been born?
Then the mother…
Just as his heart was beating wildly, he heard Ah Ya say over the phone, “Congratulations, Sir, they’re twin boys! Madam is fine as well, mother and children are safe and well!”
After she said this, Si Zhengting felt his legs growing weak and he almost collapsed on the floor.
But he did not stop moving. He hurried toward the gynecology building and rushed into the ward.
When he entered, he saw Ah Ya carrying his two children and was pushing the stroller toward the delivery room.
He did not see Zhuang Nainai. Si Zhengting grew frantic. Without taking a look at the two children in Ah Ya’s arms, he frantically asked, “Where’s Madam?”
“Sir, after the delivery, she has to stay in the delivery room from half an hour to two hours for observation. If there’s nothing wrong, she can leave the delivery room after two hours and return to the ward.”
After Si Zhengting heard this, he pursed his lips and did not say a thing.
Two hours…
His deep gaze was fixed on the delivery room. After a moment, he turned around and said to Ah Ya, “Don’t tell her that I’ve been here.”
Ah Ya was taken aback but nodded.
