Gu Jingyan hugged Lin Yue'e tightly, pressing his face against hers. He chuckled softly.

"Yeah, you're so lucky. You're a college student, surrounded by a bunch of female classmates every day. Now that you're here to accompany your wife to give birth, people have come along too. Do you think I'm made of stone?"

Lin Yue'e tried to push him away. They were still in the hospital; what if someone suddenly walked in? How embarrassing!

"I've made it clear to her. She came here this time just to see you, to see that I have such a wonderful wife, and then she'll give up. Don't worry, you're the only one in my heart. If I really wanted to find someone else, back in school..."

"What do you mean? Are you telling me how popular you are?"

Lin Yue'e opened the bag and started eating while simultaneously criticizing Gu Jingyan.

"no."

That night, Gu Jingyan stayed with Lin Yue'e in the hospital room.

But Su Manli, who had checked into the guesthouse, was not idle.

The baby wasn't born the next day, and since they were both in town, they went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get a marriage certificate.

The staff member wasn't surprised to see Lin Yue'e was heavily pregnant. These days, there are many people applying for replacement marriage certificates. Some families have their children married before they're old enough, and then come back to apply for a replacement certificate once they reach the legal age.

"This is the marriage certificate."

In Lin Yue'e's memory, a marriage certificate was just two red booklets. She never imagined that a marriage certificate these days would be just a piece of paper, without even a photo.

Then the government stamped it, and that was it. She originally wanted to put the marriage certificate in her spatial storage, but Gu Jingyan carefully clipped it into his household registration book, and very carefully at that.

On the third day, Gu Jingyan and Lin Yue'e had just finished eating at a restaurant. Lin Yue'e was quite full. On their way back to the hospital, there were many people. Perhaps the policies had been relaxed, and some people had started setting up stalls on the street, selling eggs and wild vegetables. The variety of goods was not large, and they were still testing the waters.

Su Manli, standing behind them, quickly stepped forward and pretended to accidentally bump into Lin Yue'e.

"You're here. I thought it looked like you, and it really is you."

Lin Yue'e had just finished eating when she was suddenly bumped into by Gu Jingyan, and she fell directly into his arms. Then she felt as if something in her stomach had burst open.

Something seemed to come out from beneath her. Startled, she immediately gripped Gu Jingyan tightly beside her.

"I...I think I'm going into labor."

Gu Jingyan followed her gaze downwards. He didn't see anything, but since his wife said she was about to give birth, he immediately wanted to carry her to the hospital. Fortunately, it was only about twenty meters away. They were right at the hospital entrance.

"I...I didn't mean to. I just came up to say hello."

Su Manli had clearly used a lot of force, but unexpectedly, she hadn't knocked the person to the ground. She had originally planned that if Gu Jingyan wanted to blame her, she would say that she had been bumped into.

Little did she know that Lin Yue'e had been drinking the spiritual spring water from the space for a long time, and her physical condition was far superior to that of ordinary people. Moreover, she fell directly into Gu Jingyan's arms.

"Alright, this isn't the time to talk about this." Gu Jingyan picked up Lin Yue'e and headed towards the hospital.

Su Manli wondered if she had bumped into Lin Yue'e with too much force, and whether what appeared to be nothing serious was actually quite grave. She immediately stepped forward and took Lin Yue'e's hand.

"Comrade Lin, please believe me, I was bumped into by someone and that's how I touched you. I didn't do anything to you! Could you please explain this to Jing Yan for me?"

Lin Yue'e was bumped by Su Manli. However, she didn't take it seriously because she was due to give birth in the next few days, but labor hadn't started yet. To be honest, she was actually grateful to Su Manli, because if she didn't give birth soon, Gu Jingyan's vacation would be almost over.

Gu Jingyan was in a hurry to take Lin Yue'e to the hospital.

Su Manli stood in front of the two, wanting Lin Yue'e to help her explain to Gu Jingyan.

"Get out of our way! She's about to give birth. What are you doing blocking our way?"

Gu Jingyan was anxious to find a way around them, but Su Manli seemed determined to block their way.

"Jingyan, are you angry? Please don't be angry. I really didn't mean to. Someone bumped into me, and that's how I bumped into Lin Yue'e."

Su Manli acted as if she had been wronged.

Lin Yue'e frowned, staring at her stomach, completely ignoring Su Manli. Her attention was entirely focused on her lower body; she felt as if she had wet the bed. Is this what childbirth is like?

And I was a little scared because the last time I saw that child's head was deformed. Such a big head coming out of his own body.

"I didn't say I blamed you, please move aside."

Gu Jingyan was speechless at Su Manli's behavior. Seeing that she was still trying to block him and say that she didn't do it on purpose, Gu Jingyan forcefully pushed her aside and immediately headed towards the hospital.

Lin Yue'e actually wanted to say that she had asked other nurses in the past few days, and they all said that from the start of labor to actual delivery, it takes several hours, and sometimes it can take up to a whole day and night.

Lin Yue'e was quickly taken to a ward, and then she immediately went to find a doctor to check on her. The doctor said that she was fine and should get out of bed and walk around, go to the toilet when she needed to, and eat when she was hungry. If she was going to give birth, she would have to keep waiting.

"How are you feeling now?"

This was Gu Jingyan's first time becoming a father, and he was even more nervous than Lin Yue'e.

He took out all the bundles that Lin Yue'e had prepared earlier. Then he asked the nurse if there was anything missing. He immediately went to buy it.

Su Manli wanted to see Lin Yue'e get into trouble, but Lin Yue'e was just strolling in the corridor. And she looked quite relaxed.

"How did it go?" Su Manli was extremely disappointed.

"It's okay."

Lin Yue'e had just said she was fine when she felt waves of pain in her stomach.

"Ouch, that hurts!" Lin Yue'e cried out in pain, and Gu Jingyan immediately helped her up. He then shouted for a nurse to come and ask what happened.

"It's just contractions. You can only give birth when you're fully dilated. Your baby has only just started."

Lin Yue'e was in excruciating pain, wave after wave, as if the little one inside her was tumbling over. Every time she was in pain, she would grab Gu Jingyan's arm.

"Ouch, it hurts so much. I don't want to give birth anymore..."

Gu Jingyan felt so heartbroken that he wished he could give birth in her place.

The two acted as if they were facing a life-or-death separation.

Gu Jingyan held Lin Yue'e close, unsure of what to do to make her feel more at ease.

In the dead of winter, I was so anxious that my forehead was covered in sweat.

No one paid any attention to Su Manli, so she quietly went out.

Four or five hours later, after a doctor's examination, Lin Yue'e's cervix was found to be almost fully dilated. She was then taken to the delivery room.

Lin Yue'e's health was still quite good. Gu Jingyan listened to her cries of pain outside the delivery room, and she cursed him, calling him a scoundrel. He had been worried, but now he was laughing at himself.

The baby was born more than an hour later.
