The nurse became speechless when she heard him yell so ferociously.

“Mr. Ou, let me assure you that it isn’t all blood. It looks terrible when a women’s water breaks and mixes with blood, but it’s actually normal.”

Hearing this, Ou Ming frowned doubtfully.

“What’s more, your wife’s doing quite well. Everything’s fine, don’t worry. Leave everything to us. You can wait here while we take care of her.”

The nurse had already checked them in while she was speaking. She turned around and followed Yu LIli’s hospital bed to the delivery room.

Mother Zhang felt drained yet amused at the same time. “Master Ou, sit here,” she said. “It can take a long time for a woman to give birth.”

“No, I want to go in!”

“No, it’s bad luck for a man to go inside the delivery room when a woman’s giving birth.” Mother Zhang grabbed Ou Ming. “You can’t go in.”

“Why not? When my second brother’s wife gave birth, he stayed with her for a long time!” Ou Ming yelled. He wasn’t at all convinced.

“That’s not the same. It was the second child for Master Li ‘s family!”

“How about my second brother’s assistant? Didn’t he go in when she gave birth?”

“They don’t have an elder around to remind them. They don’t understand it, but it’s not good for men to go inside when their wife’s in labor.”

Ou Ming said, “…Mother Zhang, why did I even bring you here?”

Mother Zhang: “…”

By the time Qiao Ziqing arrived, it had been a long time since Yu Lili went into the delivery room.

During that time, Ou Ming signed the admission form and was feeling very anxious.

Mother Zhang yanked him. When she saw Qiao Ziqing come in, she said, “Ma’am, you’re going to have to grab Mister Ou. He insists on barging inside. How can a man be in the same room as a woman when she’s giving birth?”

Qiao Ziqing immediately grabbed Ou Ming and said, “No, you can’t go inside. If you go in, you’ll distract Lili, and if the baby isn’t delivered, it’ll be your fault!”

After hearing this, Ou Ming finally settled down.

But soon, Ou Ming began to resist again. “Then why could my second brother go inside and accompany his wife?”

“His wife gave birth to a second child, so she already had experience and strong willpower. Your wife is giving birth to your first child.” Qiao Ziqing looked at Ou Ming and said, “Don’t you know your wife? She might be doing well now, but if you went inside, she’d start crying and howling. Then, she would really be distracted. What would you do then?”

Thoroughly convinced, Ou Ming pursed his lips and fell silent.

He sat on the chair outside the room and stared at the door from the afternoon all the way into the evening.

Ou Ming kept a cigarette in his mouth. He was feeling very upset.

Staring at the door of the delivery room, he repeatedly stood up and paced back and forth.

He checked the time. It was past eight o’clock in the evening.

Feeling increasingly uneasy, Ou Ming said, “Why hasn’t the baby been delivered yet?”

Mom Zhang shot a look at him and said, “You can’t rush a woman to give birth. Some women are in labor for an entire week.”

“A week?” Ou Ming’s heart dropped.

“Well, you may not believe this, but one woman was really in labor for an entire week. It was tough, but the baby was born in the end.”

“How would a pregnant woman eat and drink for a week? How would she get up?” Ou Ming couldn’t even imagine such a scenario. “Wouldn’t she be uncomfortable?”

“There’s no way she wouldn’t be uncomfortable. We didn’t have the technology back then like we do now. Back then, we had to give birth naturally. Nowadays, if a pregnant woman can’t give birth naturally, she can get a C-section, so you don’t need to rush it.”
