My Husband, a Marshal: Conquering the Stars with My Culinary Arts-Chapter 660 - 222 Premature Birth_3
All five of these elders are experienced. Seeing the situation, Mo’s mother grabbed Ye’s mother’s hand and asked Father Mo to call Doctor Mo. It was evident that in her rush, she forgot there was a call bell right by the bedside. Instead, in his urgency, Ye Wenting became clearer-headed and reached out to press the call bell.
Within just a dozen seconds, Doctor Mo came running in her white uniform. As Mo Ying’s cousin, her presence immediately instilled confidence in everyone.
Mo Ying was already in a panic. When Doctor Mo strode over to the bedside, she reached out to grab Doctor Mo’s hand. Her voice was weak and filled with fear, "Cousin, I’m so scared... Me, and the baby..."
Unconsciously, Mo Ying began to cry. No matter how much mental preparation she had done before, or how many maternity handbooks she had read, her mind was now a blank. She tightly gripped both Ye Wenting and Doctor Mo’s hands, the two people she trusted the most at that moment.
Ye Wenting didn’t know what to say to comfort her, as he was a novice himself. However, Doctor Mo was much more experienced. She asked several men to step out while she examined Mo Ying’s body using instruments. Once she confirmed that Mo Ying was fine and was just experiencing normal bleeding and contractions, she softened her voice and gently reassured her, "Don’t be afraid, you’re okay, I’m here, nothing bad will happen to you."
As the second-in-command of the obstetrics and gynecology department at the military hospital, Doctor Mo was confident in her medical skills. Moreover, in such situations, the most important thing was to calm the expectant mother and her family, even if it was truly a critical moment, barely hanging by a thread, one must keep the pregnant woman and family as calm as possible.
When one’s mind is heated, it’s easy to become chaotic.
Although there was bleeding, Mo Ying’s situation proceeded smoothly afterward, even extraordinarily smoothly. In just four or five hours, her cervix was fully dilated, and Doctor Mo directly instructed people to push Mo Ying into the operating room to assist her with natural childbirth.
At this moment, those waiting outside the operating room received a nerve-wracking news—Du Xixi had given birth prematurely!
"What?" Ke Xing exclaimed, standing up from the chair with shaky legs. Thankfully, Ye’s father caught hold of him, preventing him from collapsing to the ground.
"Uncle, you should go check on Xixi first, you don’t need to worry about Yingying here." After all, Du Xixi was Ke Xing’s daughter-in-law, her premature birth was certainly a cause for Ke Xing’s concern, far more than Mo Ying’s natural delivery. Ye Wenting said, "Once Yingying is out, we’ll go see Xixi."
"Alright! Alright!" Ke Xing took a deep breath to steady himself, but it was truly difficult for him. His legs, normally stable, were weak today; upon Ye’s father releasing him, he would continue to sink.
"I’ll accompany you to see Her Highness! I’ll come back later." With no other choice, Ye’s father suggested to Ke Xing, "Anyway, Yingying will take a while here, I’ll take you over, a round trip will not take much time."
Thus, Ke Xing was assisted by Ye’s father back to the other side all the way. On the trip, Ke Xing couldn’t help but express his worries to Ye’s father, who fortunately was patient and always gentle, not annoyed by Ke Xing’s concerns, instead earnestly comforting him to think positively.
But when Ye’s father supported Ke Xing over to Du Xixi’s side, it became clear that this matter really couldn’t be thought positively — inside the ward, the air was filled with the scent of blood, large patches of blood were all over the sheets. Yiyi and Er Er were being held by Miao Miao and 2569, unable to be soothed, seemingly frightened.
Du Xixi was not in the ward, evidently taken to the operating room.
"Miao Miao, what’s wrong with Xixi?" Ke Xing’s steps were even feebler. Entering the ward, his voice trembled, not caring about the possible effects of losing composure in front of outsiders, he just wanted to know what had happened to Du Xixi.
"Uncle..." Miao Miao’s nose was red, seemingly having just cried, with a streak of tears still on her face, "Just now, Miss suddenly said she felt unwell, her throat was very thirsty, I tried to help her up for a glass of water, but after drinking just half a glass, she started bleeding uncontrollably."
Though older, Ke Xing’s mind was still sharp, he immediately glanced at a glass cup half-shattered on the ground, its spilled water mingling with the droplets of blood, creating a bizarre mix of colors.
"Who poured the water." Ke Xing was amazed at how calmly he spoke at this moment, a testament to his incredible self-control. In his younger years, his instinctive reaction would likely have been to curse loudly.
Du Xixi’s health had been weak lately, but it shouldn’t have resulted in massive bleeding from drinking a glass of water. The glass of water Miao Miao gave Du Xixi must have had something wrong!
"A nurse I hadn’t seen before, apparently new today, I have already asked 2569 to detain her. She’s probably being watched by several Mechanical Soldiers now." Miao Miao sighed, "It’s my oversight, I should have poured the water for Miss myself."
Ke Xing’s gaze dropped weakly, his tone carrying unspoken exhaustion, "It’s not your fault, it’s the water that has a problem, even if I had poured it, Xixi would still be in trouble." 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂
With Ke Lian having issues, Du Xixi also encountered trouble, Ke Xing felt that his retirement life was becoming increasingly difficult.
