In the dead of night, a sudden wave of excruciating pain jolted Fang Jing Shu awake from her slumber. She realized that the baby was coming! Gripping Li Wenbo's hand tightly, beads of sweat formed on her forehead. "Wenbo, my stomach hurts," she said weakly.
Li Wenbo was instantly wide awake, jumping out of bed with a start. "Is it time? I'll go call the doctor!" He hurriedly threw on his clothes, fumbling as he dialed the doctor, then rushed to get Fang Jing Shu to the hospital.
Upon arriving at the hospital, Fang Jing Shu was taken into the delivery room. Li Wenbo anxiously paced outside, his face pale as sweat dripped down like pearls from a broken string.
The two families received the news and hurried over, making the once spacious area outside the delivery room feel cramped. When Li Wenbo saw his mother, Yue Qi, arrive, it was as if he found his anchor. He rushed to her side, gripping her hand tightly as he trembled. "Mom, what if something happens to Fang Jing Shu?"
Yue Qi gently patted his hand and reassured him, "Don't worry, she'll be fine." He then turned to grasp his father's hand, his voice filled with anxiety. "Dad, I'm a bit nervous."
His parents chuckled at his frantic demeanor and tried to comfort him. "It's normal to feel this way during childbirth; just relax." Li Father and Dai Father remained relatively calm, sitting nearby and engaging in casual conversation about national affairs, occasionally debating differing political views to ease the tension in the air.
Time passed slowly, each second feeling like an eternity.
From within the delivery room came Fang Jing Shu's painful groans, each sound piercing Li Wenbo's heart like sharp needles, causing him to feel restless and anxious. He clenched his fists tightly until his knuckles turned white. He wished he could rush in and take on Fang Jing Shu's agony himself, but there was nothing he could do; he could only pace back and forth outside the delivery room like a caged animal.
Every second felt like a century; it was truly unbearable.
"Why isn't she out yet? There can't be any problems, right?" Li Yi's voice was filled with concern as she gripped Li Wenbo's arm tightly, her eyes reflecting anxiety and unease.
"She'll be fine, Mom," Li Wenbo forced a smile to reassure his family. "The doctor said Fang Jing Shu's situation is normal; it's just a matter of time." Yet despite his words, he felt no certainty inside; an inexplicable fear gripped his heart tightly.
"Wenbo, can you stop pacing?" Dai Father frowned slightly, irritation creeping into his tone. "You're making my head spin."
At that remark, Li Wenbo had no choice but to stop and fix his anxious gaze on the door of the delivery room as if willing it to open with sheer willpower. His heart raced violently against his chest with every beat.
His palms were sweaty and clammy, mirroring his heavy and uneasy mood. He took a deep breath and slowly exhaled, trying to calm himself down but finding it futile.
His breathing quickened as if the air had grown thin around him. Every sound from within the delivery room tugged at his nerves, heightening his tension.
His throat felt dry; he wanted to say something but found himself at a loss for words. All he could do was silently pray for Fang Jing Shu and their child to come through safely.
