Chapter 1269 “Labor (5)”
For the little steambun, being able to stay with Bai Yan was all that he wanted in this world. Even if that meant plenty of suffering and dangers involved, he won’t regret it.
“Hiss!”
The poor woman wanted to say something more then, however, it’s right at that moment a stinging pain came rolling from her belly again and caused her to go white from the spasm.
“What’s wrong Mother?” Bai Xiachen asks with urgent eyes, “Is my little sister coming out?”
Tightly biting her lips, Bai Yan clearly couldn’t speak anymore due to the sensation coursing through her veins. It’s an experience normal people could never imagine. For example, compared to the injuries she’s used to taking in combat, this was several times more intense!
“Mother.” Unable to hold back the tears anymore, the little steambun shows a pleading face due to that painful expression.
He’s accompanied Bai Yan for so many years and has never seen his mother behave this strongly and helpless.
“Xiachen… help me… prepare, the scissor, and… hot water…”
“UhoAHH.”
Quickly pulling out the prepared scissor from his storage bag, the boy also grabs the water kettle and an iron pot from within for use. These are all prepared for this occasion prior to their departure so it didn’t take long for Bai Xiachen to set everything up.
Bai Yan on the other hand was too preoccupied with her current condition of going into labor to do anything else. Truthfully she doesn’t understand why either but this time it’s much more painful than when she carried her son the first time around.
Seconds pa.s.sed….
Minutes pa.s.sed….
The clock continued to tick along but the baby remained firmly lodged in there, refusing to come out and causing the poor woman to gasp constantly in pain.
“Mother!” Growing increasingly more distressed over that painful face, the boy starts to plead, “I don’t want a sister anymore, I don’t want a sister anymore, can you not give birth anymore? I don’t want you to keep getting hurt.”
Unable to speak, Bai Yan could only make a bittersweet smile at her boy. The baby’s already coming out soon, how can I not have it? Besides, I’ve come this far and climbed the mountain, what does some pain matter at this point?
Getting angry now, Bai Xiachen stares angrily at the big belly: “You are not a good sister, you causing Mother so much pain. if you don’t come out now then I won’t like you anymore.”
Who knows if the boy’s words really worked, or it’s just the timing, but the next thing Bai Yan felt was a loosening sensation around her belly and a ball of flesh rolling down her bottom half, followed closely by the screaming cry of a baby’s voice.
Panting with air still, Bai Yan felt relieved: “Hurry Xiachen, go pick the baby up or else the cold will hurt her.”
“I don’t want to.” Bai Xiachen refused and instead ran up to Bai Yan’s side to grasp her hand.
“Why? Don’t you want your sister? Hurry and go pick her up.”
“She hurt you so I don’t like her anymore.” Puckering his lips, the boy explains with an unhappy face.
