Just the Wife, Not the Child

Ou Ming was speechless.

In fact, he hadn't been in a rush in the first place, but after Mother Zhang's speech, his heart started beating even faster.

He plucked the cigarette out of his mouth and held it in his hand. "Won't she be hungry after spending such a long time in there?" he asked.

"Don't worry. She's too busy having a baby to feel hungry."

Ou Ming felt even more upset after Mother Zhang said this.

Nearby, Qiao Ziqing noticed Ou Ming's expression and said, "Mother Zhang, don't scare him. Lili's in good health. She'll deliver the baby any minute now. Don't worry."

"Okay," Ou Ming answered softly, but he kept pacing back and forth, feeling more and more upset.

By nine o'clock in the evening, Ou Huojin came over and said, "It looks like she won't be out for a while. Hurry up and eat something. It's important for your health."

Qiao Ziqing looked at Ou Huojin and found that he, too, was nervous.
