Chapter 931: Chapter 934: Confused Strength
She had been holding it in for quite a while, and finally couldn’t bear it any longer, so she slammed her chopsticks down on the table, "When is this damned epidemic going to be over? It’s so annoying and had to choose this time, it’s driving me crazy!"
If it hadn’t been for this sudden outbreak, Qin Longyun would have been able to accompany her every day.
How pleasant would it have been for the two of them to dine together and take walks?
But now, she hardly ever sees him.
What’s most important is that this ordeal seemed to have no end in sight!
"Don’t I keep you company?" Qiao Duo’er comforted her.
This epidemic was truly a pain in the ass, not only running around all day looking for medicine, but also having to put up with Li Zhengtian’s disgusting attitude; her patience was nearly worn out.
But getting worked up over that scum Li Zhengtian and harming Little Treasure was definitely not worth it.
So she had to keep enduring.
Chen Yiling pouted and said, "Duo’er, I feel like without that bastard Qin Longyun, I can’t go on, am I really that useless?"
"It’s perfectly normal to feel that way, but we’re in special circumstances right now. We need to be more understanding; they have it tough too, going out early and coming back late," Qiao Duo’er spoke gently.
Giving birth was like stepping one leg into the Ghost Gate; if lucky, both mother and child would be safe, but the unfortunate ones would be gone.
No woman doesn’t wish for the man she loves to be by her side.
Chen Yiling sighed; what she loved about Qin Longyun was his serious demeanor.
Little did she expect that it was precisely what she liked that now caused her so much torment.
Sometimes she thought the world didn’t belong to Qin Longyun; the one sitting on the throne didn’t care about the lives of the common people, so why should Qin Longyun be so troubled?
But she also knew that if Qin Longyun didn’t care, the common people could only wait for death.
Thus, she found herself in a constant struggle, getting stuck in a rut from pondering it over so many times, with no other outlet for her frustration.
"My godson will be out soon, you need to be happy, and make sure he doesn’t end up like Qin Longyun, always so stern— it’s just too depressing to watch."
Qiao Duo’er imitated Qin Longyun’s demeanor, finally coaxing a laugh from Chen Yiling.
Chen Yiling squinted her eyes and said, "You’re right, a smiling baby is much cuter."
Having one Qin Longyun who doesn’t smile at home was enough; another mini-version would definitely drive her to despair.
How much warmer is it with her, someone who loves to laugh?
"Be good now, eat up."
Qiao Duo’er put the chopsticks back in Chen Yiling’s hand; Chen Yiling could go into labor at any moment, so she needed to store up enough energy.
Many women become irritable before childbirth, and Qiao Duo’er specifically instructed the two maidservants to keep a close watch on Chen Yiling.
Now they were just one step away from the big moment, and any mishap would be a tremendous pity.
So, the two maidservants never left Chen Yiling’s side, with ChunTao being especially careful not to overlook anything.
It was a little after two o’clock when there was movement in Chen Yiling’s belly.
Chen Yiling, who was napping, suddenly woke up feeling not only pain but also a sensation as if something was flowing out every time she moved.
Her first instinct thought was that the baby might not be saved.
Hastily shielding her stomach, she once loathed her bulging belly, but she truly cherished her little treasure inside; she hoped dearly that nothing would go wrong.
"Miss, what’s wrong?" ChunTao asked urgently.
Chen Yiling’s eyes reddened as she sobbed, "It hurts so much; it feels like the baby’s falling out!"
"It’s not falling out, it’s time for the baby to be born. Did you forget that the young master’s due date has arrived?" ChunTao corrected her mistake.
Ah, this level of confusion was unmatched.
Chen Yiling clutched ChunTao tightly, "Yes, yes, it’s time for the baby to come. Go get Qin Longyun quickly, I’m so scared!"
