1168 I Will Accompany You throughout Your Labor

Tian Dong had been busy with work recently and did not have much time to accompany Zhai Hua.

Tian Dong knew that Zhai Hua was very concerned about Qiao Nan, so no matter how busy he was, he would definitely make time to accompany them, especially at times like this. It was as if his wife was going into labor and he was going to become a father.

It was September now. The National Day was around the corner. Zhai Yaohui must be very busy.

What was worrying was that even though Miao Jing could not bear to leave Qiao Nan at home, she had to accompany Zhai Yaohui on his work trip and could not take care of Qiao Nan.

Once Miao Jing left, apart from the auntie, the only person left at home was Zhai Hua. She was still a single lady who knew nothing about childbirth. Miao Jing could not help but worry.

Thankfully, Tian Dong volunteered to help. He promised that he would look out for Qiao Nan and her babies and he would liaise with the hospital and the doctors. He assured Miao Jing that nothing would go wrong. That was why Miao Jing finally agreed to leave with Zhai Yaohui.

Tian Dong meant his words. Once he knew that Qiao Nan was going into labor, he put aside all his work and dashed to the hospital to make the necessary arrangements for Qiao Nan.

Tian Dong wanted to show the Zhai family that Zhai Hua’s relatives were his relatives as well.

He would treat the people whom Zhai Hua valued and cared for with utmost importance because he cherished and valued Zhai Hua and was sincere to her.

He loved Zhai Hua. Therefore, he was willing to give his love and time to the people that Zhai Hua cared for and loved.

It was as simple as that.

Seconds ago, Zhai Hua was still in a panic, but she calmed down instantly at the sight of Tian Dong. “I have read a lot of books on childbirth. Can we not do a cesarean?” She heard that it would be very painful.

“Of course.” Tian Dong held onto Zhai Hua’s hands as he gave his definite reply. Her hands were not smooth but rough.

Tian Dong had shaken the hands of many people, both men and women, during his course of work, but no single handshake was able to make his heart flutter and beat faster.

He merely held her hands and he was so affected by it. Tian Dong had a bitter yet sweet smile on his face. From a young age, it was destined that he would not be able to escape from this little hoyden!

“I have made arrangements with the doctor. Everything will be alright.”

Zhai Hua let out a long breath. She shook her hands free from Tian Dong’s hold and leaned against Qiao Nan’s bedside. “Nan Nan, don’t be afraid. I will be by your side.” She was going to accompany her throughout her labor!

Tian Dong felt hurt that Zhai Hua left his side now that she no longer needed his comfort. He looked sadly at her back. He had no other choice but followed after her. “Are you going into the delivery room with Qiao Nan? I don’t think that is a good idea.” He heard that people who went into the delivery room would have a phobia toward childbirth.

This usually happened to the fathers of the babies.

Tian Dong was worried that it would leave a phobia on Zhai Hua and she would not be willing to experience childbirth in the future.

As a traditional man, Tian Dong loved kids. He did not want Zhai Hua to go through the torture, but he had to realize his parents’ dreams of having a grandchild. His parents were already advanced in years.

“No, I have to accompany Qiao Nan. Otherwise, I won’t have peace of mind.” Zhai Hua was determined to go into the delivery room with Qiao Nan. She held onto her hands. “Nan Nan has suffered a lot after marrying Zhai Sheng.”

It was indeed true that military wives would have different married lives as compared to other women.

But the problem was other military wives would have their mothers-in-law to accompany them into the delivery room. They were experienced and would be able to take care of them. However, Qiao Nan had no one with her except an inexperienced sister-in-law.

As for the Qiao family, they could not be counted upon to help.

Qiao Nan had no affinity with her parental family in this life. She only hoped to marry a good man and lead a happy life, receiving the love that she was not able to have in her parental family.

However, the Zhai family did not really take good care of Qiao Nan.

Under normal circumstances, if a daughter-in-law was pregnant with twins, she would be waited upon as if she was the queen. But Nan Nan only had her sister-in-law with her when she was due for delivery.

Tian Dong smiled. In other people’s opinions, the Zhai family was beyond their reach, but once they were related to them, a good life would be awaiting them. However, Zhai Hua had made it sound as if marrying into the Zhai family was a totally different situation.

Tian Dong did not rebut her.

He knew that for people who were after the influence and power that the Zhai family held, it was true that being related to them would mean a good life ahead.

But in Qiao Nan’s case, she was simple and pure, and she only wanted to lead a happy and blissful life. She did not ask for much. In that case, what Zhai Hua said was very true.

Qiao Nan felt immense and excruciating pain. She feared that she might die from the unbearable pain. Although she had heard that childbirth was a painful process, she had to experience it to know the severity of the pain.

Qiao Nan, who broke out in a cold sweat, said through clenched teeth, “Sister Zhai Hua, there is no need to accompany me. I-I can do it by myself.”

Qiao Nan was worried that the childbirth process would frighten Zhai Hua. Since she was unmarried, she would not have the courage to go into the delivery room. “Tian Dong, Sister Zhai Hua is being too reckless. Y-you have to keep a good watch on her. I-I can do it by myself. I am telling the truth. Trust me.”

Qiao Nan trusted that Tian Dong had made all the necessary arrangements with the hospital and doctors and made sure that she was well taken care of.

She knew that she did not need to go through the pain that other pregnant ladies had to go through.

“Alright.” Tian Dong breathed a sigh of relief. He was glad that Qiao Nan was so considerate. He held Zhai Hua by her shoulders. “I will keep a good watch on Zhai Hua.” He made a double-edged remark in reply to Qiao Nan’s words.

Qiao Nan smiled. “Sister Zhai Hua is not that easy to deal with. I hope that you are serious.” What happened in the previous life was too far away for her to remember. She could not remember what happened to the Zhai family either.

She was not sure if Sister Zhai Hua saw through Wei De’s true colors and whether she was still single when Tian Dong returned to China several years later.

But in this life, it seemed that Zhai Hua and Tian Dong would have a good start. She hoped that Sister Zhai Hua would find her happiness and would have a happy ending, leading a happy life.

“Nan Nan, don’t speak nonsense. Don’t frighten me.” Zhai Hua understood the conversation between Qiao Nan and Tian Dong, but this caused her to panic further. She had the impression that Qiao Nan was saying her last words. Before Qiao Nan went into the delivery room, she had to ensure that Zhai Hua would have a happy married life in the future.

Tian Dong felt touched. He was thankful that Qiao Nan would be thinking of Zhai Hua’s best interests at this critical moment. “Zhai Hua, don’t worry. Everything will be fine. We must trust that Qiao Nan will be strong. Zhai Sheng is not back yet. When he is back next time, he will be able to see his children.”

While Tian Dong was reassuring Zhai Hua, the nurses opened the door to the delivery room and Qiao Nan was pushed into the room.

Tian Dong held onto Zhai Hua. She could only watch helplessly as the lonely Qiao Nan laid on the white bedsheets and was pushed by the doctor and nurses into the delivery room.
