Love You for the Rest of My Life-Chapter 1705: I’m Strong

"Don’t say that," said Di Xiaxia, "we’re just a little late, we’ll make it in time."

They had previously discussed it, and Di Xiaxia still wanted a natural birth. Gu Qibao had a cesarean section because she was having twins, while Xiaxia only had one baby. A natural birth would be beneficial for both the baby and herself, so they decided on it.

Since it would be a natural delivery, the exact timing of labor was uncertain. It could happen before the due date, after, or even on the exact day.

So, it’s really unpredictable, and since it’s unpredictable, it doesn’t matter that he isn’t constantly by her side. Besides, she has everything at the hospital: doctors, nurses, a lot of professionals, and Gu Qibao, Di Mingjue, Di Yimo, and Di Yiru are all with her.

Fang Hao also visits once a day, and Di Jinxuan and Nangong Jin report in daily, as well as the Gu Family who take turns visiting to see Little Yimo, Little Yiran, and Gu Qibao, and incidentally, to see her. Therefore, she doesn’t feel that Di Mingzhe has to be by her side.

Just like now, she can call him back once labor starts. The Golden Palace isn’t that far away, so Di Xiaxia isn’t overly sensitive about it.

"But I still feel very guilty." Hearing such understanding words from Di Xiaxia made Di Mingzhe even sadder, and he couldn’t help but say, "I should have been by your side, never leaving you."

Di Xiaxia couldn’t help but laugh, "My situation isn’t like Xiaoqi’s. She had a cesarean section. If I needed a cesarean, you would definitely have to be here from the start. But with a natural birth, who can predict when it’ll happen? So, big brother, stop blaming yourself. Just make it here safely and in time."

Upon hearing Di Xiaxia’s words, Di Mingzhe realized she was right, and he let go of his guilt.

Nodding, he said, "Okay, big brother will be there soon. Wait for me, don’t hang up. I’ll stay with you like this. If it hurts, just yell, don’t hold it in. Yelling will make it hurt less. I’ll be there soon."

"Alright, I’m not in a hurry, you don’t need to be either. It’s not as serious as you think, and it doesn’t hurt that frequently. Look at me now, I’m..."

Before she could finish, Di Xiaxia suddenly frowned tightly. Damn, she was just about to show off that it didn’t hurt, but then it really twinged again. Luckily, it was just a sharp cramp that quickly passed.

Yet a layer of sweat swiftly appeared on her forehead.

Di Mingzhe instantly became nervous, couldn’t help but ask, "Does it hurt again? Does it?"

After the pain subsided, Di Xiaxia took a breath, "Big brother, I’m not as fragile as you think. I’m very resilient."

Perhaps because Di Mingzhe wasn’t there at the moment, she felt strong. Wouldn’t the baby be born just because he isn’t around?

Sometimes women are weak simply because their men are around. They want to be pampered, loved, which leads to a kind of needy fragility—a psychological need of sorts. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

In fact, the less men are around, the stronger women tend to be.

Hearing this, Di Mingzhe was exceedingly moved. He always knew his Xiaxia was the most considerate, the most understanding!

"Hmm," Di Mingzhe nodded, suddenly inexplicably overwhelmed with emotion, his eyes misting up, even a bit choked up, "Good girl, don’t be so strong. Big brother is here. If it hurts, don’t hold back. Big brother is always here."

As he spoke, the car was naturally speeding, especially with the emergency sirens clearing the way, so there was no obstruction and they reached the hospital without much delay.
