1970s: Hot wife accompanies the army, cold-faced rough man is not easy to tease

Chapter 344 Youyou, I'll go in and keep you company!

Lu Youyou was feeling ashamed and indignant when another wave of drowsiness washed over her.

She couldn't help but yawn, a tear welling up in her eye, making the redness at the corner of her eye even more intense.

Gu Qingye reached out and covered her bright, sparkling eyes, giving her a comforting kiss.

"Sweetie, time for bed. I'll stay with you."

Lu Youyou: ...

Okay, fine, that's fine. Although there were some mistakes in the process, we still got to the same goal.

Lu Youyou's thoughts gradually drifted away, and sure enough, she fell asleep five seconds later.

Gu Qingye was afraid that making too much noise would wake people up, so he could only endure it for five minutes. It would be better to stay further away, but he couldn't bear to.

With his left hand under Lu Youyou's neck and his right hand gently around her stomach, he silently recited the military regulations twice before finally falling asleep.

As dawn broke, Lu Youyou suddenly woke up, startling Gu Qingye.

"What's wrong, Youyou?!" He stood up briskly and checked her over from head to toe. "Is your calf cramping again?"

As she spoke, two hands appeared on Lu Youyou's calves.

She shuddered suddenly, her gaze slowly moving upwards along the large massaging hands, and when she saw Gu Qingye's tightly pursed thin lips, she trembled again.

Just now in my dream, it was these lips, from top to bottom, inside and out...

"Youyou? Youyou?!"

"Huh?" Lu Youyou snapped out of her daze. "No, nothing, I just got a cramp, yes, a cramp..."

Gu Qingye reached out and rubbed her forehead: "Why are you sweating? Did you have a nightmare?"

Lu Youyou blushed. Well, this dream wasn't exactly serious.

Although nothing actually happened, Gu Qingye used all sorts of tricks to make things happen, and who knew she would wake up halfway through!
Cough cough, it was somewhat satisfying, yet not entirely satisfying, so... it probably could be considered a nightmare?

"Are you feeling better?" Gu Qingye massaged both of her legs.

What could Lu Youyou say? She could only nod through her tears.

As she watched Gu Qingye kiss each of her knees, her heart skipped a beat.

Being pregnant is so tragic!
*
During the last three months of her pregnancy, Lu Youyou's belly grew much faster than before, looking like a round pot from the front. However, she remained slim, and from behind, you couldn't even tell she was pregnant.

As the game progressed, Gu Qingye became increasingly nervous, but he dared not show it to Lu Youyou.

However, how could Lu Youyou not see it? The blood vessels under his eyes were getting more and more prominent, and his wheat-colored skin couldn't hide his two big dark circles.

Gu Qingye prepared the hospital bag a month in advance and turned down all other work-related matters, spending all his free time with Lu Youyou.

The school asked her to go home to prepare for childbirth half a month in advance. Including the 56 days of maternity leave she was entitled to, Lu Youyou started resting at home from the beginning of March.

In the last few days, she was constantly watched wherever she went, either by Gu Qingye or Lin Nanxing. If neither of them were around, the housekeeper would stay by her side.

Lin Nanxing had already arranged a hospital room in advance, and Lu Youyou checked in three days ahead of time.

Even though she maintained a good mindset throughout, she couldn't hold on much longer in the final period.

I feel uncomfortable sitting or lying down. I need to go to the toilet every few minutes. It takes five minutes to get up and another five minutes to sit down.

My legs and feet are swollen, and walking is painful and swollen. I also have toe pain, sciatica, and discomfort in my ribs caused by the pressure of my uterus on my diaphragm and chest cavity.

Every day, except when she's asleep, she's constantly irritable, and because she can't get a full night's sleep, she hardly ever feels comfortable.

Before she could even develop much maternal love, the pregnant woman was already on the verge of collapse.

"Why aren't you giving birth yet? Aren't twins supposed to be premature?" Lu Youyou gritted her teeth. "Just a couple more days, hang in there a little longer," Lin Nanxing said.

Lin Nanxing and Gu Qingye helped her walk, one on each side.

Actually, Lu Youyou didn't want to move at all, but Comrade Lin forced her and Comrade Gu coaxed her, so she had no choice but to grit her teeth and get up.

Her inner thighs felt like they had snapped, and with her back hunched and legs spread, she felt like she was walking like Donald Duck.

"Mom, Mom..." Lu Youyou suddenly stopped, "My stomach hurts!"

Gu Qingye stopped breathing, terrified, and immediately supported her, afraid that she would lose her balance and fall.

"The pain of falling?" Lin Nanxing asked immediately, "Any other sensations?"

Lu Youyou was covered in sweat and could only shake her head, unable to speak.

"Qingye, quickly help her inside, she's probably about to give birth!" Lin Nanxing said calmly.

My daughter has been doing well during her pregnancy, and all her prenatal checkups have been normal, so there's nothing to panic about.

Gu Qingye picked her up and carried her to the delivery room.

Lu Youyou thought she wouldn't be nervous, but when the moment actually came, she could feel her heart rate soar to 180. Just as the nurse was about to push her into the delivery room, she realized that her hand was still tightly gripping Gu Qingye.

Gu Qingye's eyes instantly reddened. At this moment, he no longer cared about what he had promised Lu Youyou before, such as the baby's position being normal or just waiting patiently. He simply couldn't do it!

"Youyou, I'll go in and keep you company!" He looked up at the doctor. "Can I go in and keep her company?"

"No! No, no!" Lu Youyou's worries vanished in an instant.

She knew how "uncontrollable" childbirth was, and apart from the doctors, nurses, and her own mother, she didn't want anyone to see her lose control of her bladder.

"You're not allowed to go in. I can manage on my own, trust me!" Lu Youyou was still worried and reached out to Lin Nanxing again, "Mom, you must stop him, don't let him act impulsively!"

Given Gu Qingye's fighting prowess, she was genuinely afraid he would insist on coming in regardless of the consequences.

Lin Nanxing never expected that Lu Youyou would still be worried about this at this critical moment: "Just focus on having the baby and listen to the doctor!"

The head of obstetrics smiled and said, "Dean Lin, don't worry, we will definitely get your daughter and grandson out safely."

"Thank you for your help, Director Li!"

"Of course, let's go in first!"

Gu Qingye subconsciously followed a few steps and was almost hit in the face by the delivery room door.

"Qingye? Qingye?"

Lin Nanxing called out several times but there was no response. Gu Qingye just stood there stiffly, as if he wanted to stand there forever.

She sighed and went over to pat him on the shoulder.

"Qingye, don't be nervous. First-time mothers don't recover that quickly. Come and sit down first. You'll have the energy to take care of Youyou when she comes out, right?"

Gu Qingye seemed to have listened, but his mind was filled with the image of Lu Youyou sweating profusely from the pain.

"Mom, everything will really be alright, right?" His voice trembled slightly.

"Yes, nothing will happen!" Lin Nanxing said firmly.

Lu Youyou's prenatal indicators are all good, so there should be no problem with a natural birth. Even if she can't give birth naturally, Peking Union Medical College Hospital's cesarean section technology is among the best in China.

Gu Qingye remained tense, and Lin Nanxing was worried that he might suffer from respiratory alkalosis, so she tried to find something for him to do: "Qingye, should we inform your father?"
