Chapter 1165: Chapter 1165: Yin Mo Gives Birth
That evening, Yun Lih, Mr. and Mrs. Xia, Shang Yu, and others were having dinner at the Royal Hotel.
Probably because Shang Yu was present, Mr. and Mrs. Xia did not make things difficult for Yun Lih.
The next day, Xia Siyu and Yun Lih returned to Cloud City first.
About a week later, the second young master of the Lu Family, Lu Jingan, was escorted back to the country by international police, causing quite a stir.
However, Xia Siyu did not pay much attention to the reports on Lu Jingan, as being a woman in love, she had more important matters to invest her energy in.
For instance, the matter of Yun Lih staying or leaving.
After returning to Cloud City, she and Yun Lih were like any ordinary couple in love, busy with their work, and connecting emotionally through WeChat during their free time.
He still lived next door to her, and every evening after work, they would spend time together, either eating, chatting, or taking walks, living a simple and carefree life.
That noon, Xia Siyu had just finished a meeting and walked into her office, immediately picking up her phone to check messages.
There were no messages from Yun Lih in the WeChat records; she frowned, opened the chat box, and sent him a [Let me see] emoji.
Before she received a reply from the man, her assistant knocked on the door and entered, "President Xia, there is a package for you downstairs."
"Please get it for me." Xia Siyu, not looking up, casually instructed.
The assistant scratched his head in embarrassment, "Well... They said you need to sign for it personally."
Xia Siyu frowned, put down her phone, stood up, "Downstairs?"
"Yes, yes, in the lobby."
By this time, it was close to noon, the employee lunch break.
Xia Siyu was dressed in a light blue professional outfit and wearing high heels as she walked out of the elevator.
"President Xia."
"Hello, President Xia."
Passing employees greeted her with respect in their words.
Xia Siyu nodded in acknowledgment to each greeting, bypassed the elevator area, and began to look for the figure of the courier.
Then, at the center of the lobby right in front of her, a large bouquet of fiery red roses caught her eye first.
Xia Siyu slowed her pace, her ears filled with the envious discussions of the employees:
"Look there, a handsome guy."
"Where, where?"
"Oh my, such an extraordinary man, both handsome and stylish, and he still needs to give roses to pursue love?"
"Do you guys think he might be a suitor of Lisa from the marketing department?"
"..."
The employees’ discussions were ongoing, but Xia Siyu paid no attention, fixating her gaze unblinkingly on the man holding the massive bouquet of roses with one hand ahead.
She had long known that Yun Lih was not romantic, not even knowing what romance was.
Because of this understanding, she had never had any expectations.
So, watching him with fresh flowers standing in the bustling company lobby, the feeling was both fantastical and unreal.
Then, Yun Lih, holding the flowers, gradually approached Xia Siyu, ignoring the whispers around him, and directly thrust the roses into her arms, "Stunned?"
Xia Siyu held the substantial bouquet of flowers, her expression a bit dumbfounded, "Why are you suddenly giving me flowers?"
Yun Lih pinched her cheek, leaned forward, and said quietly, "Isn’t your birthday today?"
"You knew?" Xia Siyu had never mentioned anything about her birthday, he hadn’t asked, and she had never proactively reminded him.
Xia Siyu looked down at the fiery roses and then at Yun Lih with his gentle gaze, and next moment, she tiptoed and kissed his cheek.
"Whoa, is he President Xia’s boyfriend?"
"Indeed, other loves are about handsome men and beautiful women, while my love is about everyday life and necessities."
"President Xia is not considerate; publicly flaunting love during lunch break in the lobby."
"Yet another day to envy others’ love..."
In front of the revolving door, under eyes filled with admiration, Yun Lih held Xia Siyu close as they gradually walked away.
There must be hundreds of flavors in love, but the sweetest and most beautiful is undoubtedly you.
...
Time flew by, and suddenly it was August 7th.
In Cloud City, Xia Siyu and Yun Lih were continuing their long-run in love, while the Yan Emperor Private Hospital in South Sea plunged into chaos at four in the morning.
"It hurts, honey, my stomach hurts..."
Yin Mo was drenched in sweat, the pain from contractions made her face pale as white paper.
He Chen was lying on the adjacent rest bed asleep, and upon hearing Yin Mo’s call in his dream, he jolted awake.
"Baby?"
Yin Mo held her stomach, continuously taking deep breaths, her voice weak, "My stomach hurts..."
"Damn." He Chen’s pupils shrank in alarm, he flipped out of bed, "Don’t be afraid, I’ll call the doctor now."
Originally, her cesarean section date was set for tomorrow, August 8th, but suddenly the contractions began this morning.
The hospital hadn’t started its operating hours yet, and the on-duty doctor quickly moved Yin Mo into the delivery room.
He Chen even forgot to put on his shoes, standing barefoot rigidly outside the delivery room, as nurses went in and out, his lips tightly sealed, and his face was filled with panic.
By six o’clock, all the doctors arrived.
At seven, Li Qiao and Shang Yu reached the hospital.
Outside the delivery room, He Chen was still in his pajamas, wearing slippers, and holding tension like a taut bow string, tightly strung.
Rong Manfang also quickly came over, but no matter how much she tried to comfort He Chen, he remained silent.
He Chen couldn’t hear anything from inside the delivery room, his heart kept sinking, fists tightly clenched, eyes red like blood.
Suddenly, he understood Shaoyan’s feelings back then.
Suddenly, a hand rested on his shoulder, and a calm and assuring voice echoed beside him, "Stay calm, everything will be fine."
He Chen turned his head stiffly, meeting the deep, steady eyes of the man, his lips moved and he hoarsely said, "It’s been three hours..."
Shang Yu squeezed his shoulder slightly, "Just wait a bit longer."
Li Qiao was standing at the delivery room door, listening for a few seconds, then she turned her head and said, "I’ll go in and check."
Before the man spoke, He Chen immediately said to Li Qiao, "Sister-in-law, I want to save the mother, in any situation, save the mother."
Li Qiao chuckled softly, said don’t worry, then called a nurse, obtained sterile clothing, and soon entered the delivery room.
Because Yin Mo was having twins, the natural delivery was indeed challenging.
But fortunately, when Li Qiao entered the delivery room, both children were already born, a boy and a girl, a big brother and little sister combination.
Yin Mo fainted from exhaustion after giving birth, so she was unaware of what transpired afterward.
The problem lay with the baby girl.
"Madam, this baby remained in the birth canal for too long, her breathing is very weak, and she hasn’t cried at all, I’m afraid..."
The doctor’s explanation weighed heavily on Li Qiao’s heart, she was standing not far from the birthing bed, looking at the wrinkled little girl, her eyes slightly narrowed, "Give me the syringe."
In other hospitals, they would definitely not allow Li Qiao to intervene in the delivery process halfway, but everyone at the Yan Emperor Private Hospital knew and trusted her.
The doctor handed the freshly opened syringe to Li Qiao and picked up the baby girl to hand over to her.
Li Qiao supported the tiny infant with one hand, holding the syringe in the other hand and gently pricking the area between her nose.
