Rebirth Of The Villainess: Young Master Lu's Wicked Wife-Chapter 613 Fatherhood (1)
Despite Bai Qingyue's callous words, Lu Qingfeng could see in her eyes that she cared about his wife. If there was something he was sure of, it's the fact that Bai Qingyue still held her child in her heart, regardless of what she said. She wouldn't have bothered to come here if she wasn't worried about her daughter.
Lu Qingfeng took a seat next to Yun Qingrong, hands clasped together as they waited. He wanted to go inside the delivery room, but he didn't quite trust himself to witness Su Xiaofei in a state of bloody mess. The only reason he wasn't panicking now was because Xi Qian promised to be there by his wife's side.
However, every second that they didn't hear anything or see someone leave the room felt like an eternity. Lu Qingfeng had always prided himself as a man with great patience, but this time, every inch of his body wanted him to go inside to assure himself that his wife was still alive.
As they waited in the hallway, his brothers arrived with Xiao Rufeng and Shen Jiao in tow. Both women gave him a greeting before they moved on to Yun Qingrong and Qiao Fengying.
"What are you doing here?" Lu Qingfeng asked as Song Yiran hooked an arm around his shoulder, dragging him away from the women. He wasn't expecting them all to be here.
"We came here to show our support. How could you leave us out today? If Li Xiran hadn't told us what was happening, we would've been oblivious for the second time." Ning Xuan replied, eyeing the closed doors of the OR. "So how's Big Sister?"
"We haven't heard any update from Brother Han yet. Xi Qian is still with them." Lu Qingfeng answered. Having his brothers here with him somehow lessened his worries.
"Su Xiaofei is delivering the twins too early. Is everything alright?" Song Yiran asked him this time.
"I'm not sure myself, but Brother Han insisted that the twins need to be delivered now or they might face serious complications later."
As soon as he answered Song Yiran, the doors opened and two nurses came out pushing two incubators with Xi Qian following after them. She was still dressed in her scrubs and a blue mask on her face, hair tied behind her. Everyone rushed to see the babies.
"Oh my goodness. They are so tiny!" Xiao Rufeng murmured next to her boyfriend as Yan Xiuchen held her hand.
Yun Qingrong agreed with the actress. She wanted to hold her grandchildren, but she knew that they needed to be transferred to the NICU. The twins needed to stay inside the incubator to survive outside their mother's womb—because they were born prematurely.
"The elder one is this little one here." Xi Qian said, pointing at the larger one between the twins.
"We got them, Lu Qingfeng. Now, you need to be strong for Feifei and these two."
Lu Qingfeng gave her a curt nod, hands clenching hard on his sides. He knew Su Xiaofei needed him to be their pillar.
Meanwhile, Bai Qingyue remained mum and only stared at the pair of twins. It briefly reminded her of the time she gave birth to her daughter. She also gave birth to her daughter prematurely and she remembered Xiaofei being so tiny by the time the nurse handed her baby to her.
"Congratulations for being a daddy!" Song Yiran exclaimed, giving Lu Qingfeng a pat on his shoulder.
Lu Qingfeng remained silent, but his eyes never left his daughters. As soon as his eyes landed on them, the air in his lungs disappeared. As he looked at them, his heart felt like it wanted to burst from so much joy.
What Xiao Rufeng said was true. They were too tiny.. However, even if he wanted them to grow for another week inside his wife, it would only make their situation more difficult than it already was.
The nurses then wheeled the twins to the NICU, leaving Xi Qian behind.
"Xi Qian." Lu Qingfeng whispered.
"What is it?" 𝒇𝑟e𝗲𝚠𝚎𝐛𝗻𝐨νel. 𝒄om
Lu Qingfeng looked her straight in the eyes and said; "Don't let her die, please. We need her."
Xi Qian stared at him for a long moment before nodding.
"I don't intend to lose her. We've got this." She said before going back inside the OR.
"Go and see your daughters. I will be here." Yun Qingrong told him, and Lu Qingfeng immediately rushed to see his daughters again and prayed to deities above like he'd never prayed in his entire life.
He stopped in the hallway outside the NICU and looked at his daughters through the glass window that allowed parents and guests to check on the babies. Behind him, his brothers appeared and looked over his shoulder to take a look too.
"Have you and Su Xiaofei already decided on their names?" Yan Xiuchen asked. From where they were standing, it was hard to take a good look at the Lu couple's daughters.
"En. Feifei and I have already chosen names for them." Lu Qingfeng responded, his voice thick with emotion.
"What's wrong?" Yan Xiuchen asked when he noticed the sudden change in his younger brother. He could sense that something was bothering Lu Qingfeng.
"I wanted to abort them at first. Feifei insisted on keeping them. I'll never be able to forgive myself for even thinking of terminating her pregnancy."
"You are merely thinking of Su Xiaofei's safety and I'm sure they wouldn't blame you for it." Zhu Beichuan commented, knowing how hard it was for Lu Qingfeng to begin with.
"Still…" Lu Qingfeng was about to respond, but Song Yiran cut him off.
"You are worrying too much. Since your daughters are already here, you will have to take care of them while Su Xiaofei is recovering. We both know that she would put your daughters' welfare above herself." His friend reminded him.
Lu Qingfeng could only sigh and nod in agreement. Once his wife was awakened, she would surely rush to see their twins at once.
