Reading Settings
"Yingying, I really can't hold on anymore. Don't blame me. You have to take good care of yourself. Don't be afraid. I will be watching over you from heaven."
Li Qingqing's voice gradually weakened, and her eyelids grew heavier and heavier. Shu Ying couldn't help but tear up. She immediately took out a cup, poured some spiritual spring water, and carefully helped her up.
"Qingqing, you can hold on. I'm here to help you. The baby has already been born, and there's a brighter future for us. There are so many doctors and nurses in the hospital; they'll definitely be able to save you."
Shu Ying's eyes were blurred with tears as she held Li Qingqing tightly in both hands. She had already experienced the pain of losing a close friend once, and she did not want to go through it a second time.
Realizing that this was not a hallucination, Li Qingqing mustered her strength and opened her eyes, taking small sips of the spiritual spring water along with Shu Ying.
Shu Ying's tears fell onto her arm, and she murmured, "Qingqing, drink some, it will make you feel better, we will all get better."
She has also given birth and knows how painful childbirth is.
Li Qingqing nodded gently. After finishing the cup of spiritual spring water, her previously unfocused gaze improved significantly, and even her exhausted physical strength seemed to have returned.
Shu Ying descended from the sky, seemingly only to save her. Li Qingqing held Shu Ying's hand tightly, and the breath she had been holding back finally came out.
"Yingying, I thought I was hallucinating. You really came! How did you get to the hospital? At home..."
In fact, Li Qingqing had a lot of questions to ask, but they were in the corridor with many people coming and going, and she had just given birth and was exhausted.
Shu Ying gently patted her arm. "I know what you're worried about. Don't worry, I'm fine. You need to rest now. I have news about Duan Huaichuan. I came here today to take you to find him. You must get better soon."
Although Li Qingqing had already drunk the spiritual spring water, she still had a minor surgery to perform, and Shu Ying didn't dare to look at the blood flowing from her bed.
As a woman herself, she dared not imagine how much pain Li Qingqing had just endured.
A woman is at her weakest when she gives birth, yet she is often all alone at that moment.
When the doctor first saw her, he assumed she was a family member who had arrived late, and his words were full of complaints.
"The woman is having a difficult labor and is already bleeding heavily. How can you family members be so indifferent? If you had arrived any later, you could have just been waiting to collect her body."
Such words were shocking, and Shu Ying dared not think about it. What would she do if what she saw today was really just Li Qingqing's corpse?
"Yingying, thank you."
Li Qingqing's eyes were red and swollen. She looked like a balloon that had deflated rapidly. However, due to the swelling during her pregnancy, her facial features had not yet fully returned to their original positions, and the skin on her stomach was loose and sagging.
Shu Ying gently wiped away her tears and forced a smile. "We're best friends, so why thank me? Just make sure you get out safely. My child and I will be waiting for you outside."
With the good news brought by Shu Ying, Li Qingqing's lifeless face finally showed some vitality, and her eyes were filled with a longing for new life.
"I definitely will."
It was just a minor surgery, and her best friend was waiting for her outside, so the scary things weren't so terrible after all.
Shu Ying glanced at the doctor next to her and said, "Please stitch her up first, and then we'll settle the bill now."
Shu Ying gently picked up the baby next to her. This was the baby Li Qingqing had given birth to after a near-death experience. The baby was soft and had not opened its eyes yet, but its little hands were moving constantly. Because it was premature, it was even smaller than the twins Yueyue and Yangyang when they were born.
Shu Ying gently hugged him, "My child, your mother suffered a lot to give birth to you, you must grow up safely."
Li Qingqing is actually very afraid of pain. Back in school, if she accidentally bumped her head on the corner of a table, she would feel pain for a long time. But this kind of girl became a great mother.
"This child is premature and needs to be observed in the neonatal ward for a period of time. You can go and pay the fees first, and then leave the child with us."
The baby was born two months premature. Although the baby was born safely, the organs were not fully developed.
Shu Ying, being a medical student herself, naturally understood. She carefully handed the child over to the doctor and prepared to settle the bill.
She arrived at just the right time, not waiting for Li Qingqing to come out of the operating room, and she could also help her take care of the baby. As a mother of two little ones, Shu Ying was very experienced in taking care of newborns.
Watching Li Qingqing being wheeled into the operating room, Shu Ying finally felt relieved. She took out some money from her inner pocket and was about to go downstairs to pay when she saw the delivery room door being opened from the inside.
The one being pushed out was Zhong Yun'er; something was very wrong with her.
Shu Ying was unsure about her physical condition, but she had overheard the conversation between the doctor who came out and Zhong Yun'er's family.
"Because of your daughter's physical condition, the child was born very weak, and based on current observations, although the child cries, there is no sound coming out of her throat, and her vocal cords do not vibrate at all, so she is very likely to be deaf and mute."
At that time, Shu Ying was completely focused on Li Qingqing and didn't pay attention to anything else.
