Bringing the Nation's Husband Home - Chapter 871

Chapter 871

Chen Yang put the ring away and stood up . He raised his arm, and wiped Qiao Anxia's ceaseless tears . "Xia Xia . . . What I want isn't fairness . What I want is you . "

Qiao Anxia's tears fell so violently that no matter how hard he tried to wipe them away, they never ended . Eventually, he held her face up and stared right into her eyes .  "If you don't want to get married now, that's fine . We can continue to be girlfriend and boyfriend . If you don't want to ever marry because you're worried about being a nuisance, then we can be girlfriend and boyfriend forever . Besides, if you don't want to ever get married, then I don't . . . "

Qiao Anxia let out a "Wahhh!", then hugged Chen Yang's neck, as she wailed like a child .

Chen Yang took her in his arms and patted her back . With a gentle voice, he comforted her softly, "Alright, don't cry . . . "

The cries didn't cease in the slightest .

The fireflies tirelessly circled the two of them, their warm yellow glow flashing incessantly .

Time flew by . In the blink of an eye, spring had gone and summer had come, the summer was over and autumn arrived, autumn left and winter came . On a heavily snowy night, one week before Qiao Anhao's due date, she was suddenly woken up by a sharp pain . She instinctively reached her arm out and pushed Lu Jinnian beside her .

He quickly woke up and asked, "What's wrong?"

Right after, he was instantly wide awake, for he heard Qiao Anhao's painful groans . He swiftly turned the lights on to see Qiao Anhao's pale face and the drenched sheets below . Her water had broke!

Because Lu Jinnian hadn't a clue about giving birth, he took enough preparation classes in advance to welcome Little Rice Cake into the world . Despite practically being half a gynecologist, he was still evidently lost in fear at such a predicament .

He practically jumped out of the bed and landed on the ground . He first called the doctor, then without even bothering to get changed, he carried Qiao Anhao, and ran down the stairs .

Qiao Anhao was in so much pain, her entire body curled up . Seeing her like that, Lu Jinnian was even more shaken . It took him two tries to start up the car engine .

It snowed heavily . The streets were covered in white, and the temperature was so low that the falling snow turned to ice . Lu Jinnian drove so fast that every now and then, when he would make a turn, Qiao Anhao could hear the tires screech . She endured the pain, and instinctively said, "Lu Jinnian, don't be so worried . . . "

Don't worry? How could he not be worried?

He was truly happy that she was pregnant . They finally were having a baby, and their family was finally going to be complete .

But now, seeing in just how much pain she was, the immense happiness he felt was replaced with fear .

When they reached the hospital, Lu Jinnian practically jumped out of the car once he had barely turned the car engine off . Without any grace at all, he barged into the maternity ward .

The moment Qiao Anhao entered the delivery room, Lu Jinnian was left all alone in the corridor outside .

Every now and then, Qiao Anhao's heart wrenching screams could be heard from the delivery room . Her cries left Lu Jinnian scared witless . For someone who was always mentally strong, he actually felt flustered as to what to do next .  Eventually, when he reached the very end of his wits, he couldn't care too much any more . He pulled out his phone and called Xu Jiamu, Chen Yang, Qiao Anxia, his assistant, Zhao Meng, all of them to come over .

Xu Jiamu was the first to arrive . Just as he came out of the elevator, he heard Lu Jinnian's voice traveling through the corridor .
