I'm Pregnant with the Villain's Child

Chapter 134 – Safe and sound (1)

Time slowly passed by.

It had already been three hours since Ye Zhen had been wheeled into the delivery room. During this time, doctors and nurses would go in and out of the delivery room. However, Lu Beichuan and his party didn’t dare to stop one of the doctors or nurses to ask about the situation for fear that a delay would cause complications.

“It’s already been over three hours. Why hasn’t Ye Zhen come out yet?” Surprisingly, Old Master Lu was the first one that couldn’t remain calm. His hands were clutching his cane. From time to time, he would look at his watch.

Although Mrs. Lu was anxious, she was someone that had experience with giving birth. She comfortingly said to Old Master Lu, “Dad, don’t worry. It’s only been three hours. When I was giving birth to Beichuan, it took five hours. There’s probably a long wait ahead of us. Why don’t you go rest for now. Once Ye Zhen comes out of the delivery room, we’ll come get you.”

Old Master Lu hadn’t been able to sleep well all night, but he still pushed the limits of his body by continuing to sit here.

The old butler was truly worried about Old Master Lu’s aged body. He also tried to persuade by saying, “Old Master Lu, you won’t be able to do anything by staying here anyways. And, you didn’t sleep well last night. Why not get a good rest first? When Young Madam comes out, we’ll immediately come get you. That way you’ll have plenty of energy to tease your great-grandson when the time comes. What do you think?”

Old Master Lu waved his hand. Extremely stubborn, he said, “Don’t try to change my mind. I know my body better than you. It hasn’t been that long. Don’t worry, I can last.”

There really was nothing you could do once an elderly person got stubborn. You could try your best to persuade, but it would fall on deaf ears.

Resigned, Mrs. Lu and the old butler didn’t say anymore. They could only let Old Master Lu sit here and continue to wait with them.

“Oh! Beichuan, did you tell Ye Zhen’s parents that she’s at the hospital?”

Although Mrs. Lu didn’t like Ye Zhen’s parents, they were still her parents. It would be unreasonable to not inform her biological parents that she was in labor.

Since three hours ago, when Ye Zhen had entered the delivery room, Lu Beichuan had been stiffly and motionlessly leaning against the wall. His eyes were downcase, and he was blankly looking at the floor. Who knows what he was thinking?

Lu Beichuan didn’t respond at first.

Old Master Lu asked with a furrowed brow, “What... You didn’t tell Ye Zhen’s parents that their daughter is at the hospital?”

Old Master Lu had always attached importance to etiquette. Although he had vaguely heard about the improper things done by the Ye’s and thought they weren’t reliable, how could they not be notified of an important matter like their daughter going into labor?

“It’s my fault. I was overwhelmed from being too busy last night and today and forgot to call our in-laws,” Mrs. Lu said, “I’ll call them right now.”

Just as Mrs. Lu was about to stand up, Lu Beichuan stopped her. “Wait until Ye Zhen comes out.”

“It won’t be helpful if they come here anyways.” Regarding this matter, Lu Beichuan was extremely calm and heartless toward the Ye’s.

During the past period of time when Ye Zhen was pregnant, Lu Beichuan had indifferently ignored the Ye’s. The Ye’s hovered on the edge of bankruptcy. When Father Ye repeatedly asked Lu Beichuan for help, Lu Beichuan didn’t promise to help, nor did he refuse. He only did enough to allow the Ye’s to remain afloat to pay the Ye’s back for raising Ye Zhen to adulthood.

He couldn’t turn back time and prevent Ye Zhen from being unfairly treated. He could only hope that Ye Zhen wouldn’t suffer any grievances in the future.

“But...” Mother Lu furrowed her brow. Disapproval was written across her face.

Lu Beichuan’s attitude was unyielding. He lightly said, “I know what to do. Everything is under control. Don’t worry about it.”

Old Master Lu wanted to say something, but seeing his grandson’s expressionless face, he swallowed his words.

He sighed.

Never mind. Lu Beichuan was in charge of the Lu’s now. The younger generation will do alright on their own. As an old man, he didn’t need to worry about them.
