Chapter 1942: Triplets
Xia Chuyan was speechless. After three hours of emergency treatment, she just woke up after leaving the ER. Are you sure this isn’t a joke?
Considering Lu Hualiang’s current worried state, she refrained from any sarcastic remarks.
"It will probably take about an hour before she wakes up; she’s too weak."
Lu Hualiang’s hand froze, overwhelmed with heartache.
But he couldn’t bear to use force, afraid of hurting her.
These hands, so thin that they’re just skin and bones, he’s really scared they might break with a little pressure!
"Director Lu, why don’t you go back first, take a shower, and get some rest?" Xia Chuyan couldn’t help but suggest.
He’s practically a refugee now.
"No, I’ll wait for her to wake up."
Lu Hualiang, without looking up, insisted on waiting for Xia Weibao to wake up.
He wants to be the first person she sees when she wakes up!
"I’m afraid your appearance will scare her, and leaving a bad impression might make Fifth Sister dislike you..."
Before she could finish speaking, Lu Hualiang had already rushed out like the wind.
Xia Chuyan, "..."
Director Lu, you’re amazing!
Lu Hualiang didn’t go far; he booked a room at a nearby hotel, called for a set of clothes, and then dashed into the bathroom.
Looking at the mirror image of a beard-growing, messy-haired uncle, he was very grateful for Xia Chuyan’s reminder.
If Xia Weibao saw this image, it might lower his attractiveness score.
His wife is a face enthusiast; back then, it was thanks to this face that he managed to make her run away with him.
This great advantage shouldn’t be wasted.
He quickly took a combat shower, tidied himself up, and returned to the hospital room.
The whole process took less than twenty minutes.
He transformed from a shabby uncle to a refined and wealthy gentleman.
Xia Chuyan admitted that Director Lu was the one to admire!
As the main character returned, she sensibly made space for him.
Before leaving, she instructed on the precautions.
"Director Lu, Fifth Sister’s health is really poor. We’re not sure what she has been through lately, but her nutrition is seriously lacking, and the fetal condition is unstable.
I suggest using both Chinese and Western medicine for fetal care, and hiring a specialized nutritionist to help manage her recovery. The babies have nearly absorbed all the mother’s nutrients..."
Lu Hualiang listened attentively, suddenly interrupting, "Wait, the babies?"
It seemed the director had mentioned ’babies’ too; at that time, his entire focus was on Xia Weibao, he only found it odd but didn’t pay much attention.
Pregnant with a child, how come it’s ’babies’?
Xia Chuyan remained unfazed, "Fifth Sister is pregnant with triplets."
Three...three?
Lu Hualiang was completely stunned, staring at his three fingers like a child just learning numbers, confused between one, two, and three.
Then he was overjoyed!
Xia Chuyan gave him a sarcastic glance, worthy of being the world’s number one!
One shot, three hits!
Suppressing his inner excitement, Lu Hualiang listened to Xia Chuyan finish the precautions, then ushered her out.
Sitting by the bedside, his gaze burning as he looked at his little woman.
Holding her hand tightly, he placed her hand back on his cheek, softly rubbing it, "Wife."
When Xia Weibao woke up, nearly two hours had passed, and Lu Hualiang had been watching time tick by, second by second.
Several times he couldn’t help calling Xia Chuyan to ask, wasn’t it supposed to be an hour? It’s been an hour and one minute now, why hasn’t she woken up!
Two minutes now, still not awake!
Five minutes now, still not awake!
Fifteen minutes, how come she’s still not awake!
Half an hour, still not awake!
In a fit of impatience, Director Lu inwardly cursed, incompetent doctor!
