"It hurts so much..."
"Mom, where’s Wen Yang?"
Lying on the hospital bed, her eyes vacant, Ning Chu breathed heavily, sweat already covering her forehead, beading down and soaking the pillow.
Her eyes were wet, tears swirling in her eyes, and the pain made her furrow her brow. Her fingers gripped the sheets tightly.
A strong wave of pain slowly passed, and her tense body relaxed. With a sense of hopelessness, she asked, "It hurts so much~ Mom, didn’t you say I could have a painless delivery?"
This was just the beginning! The pain already matched the level of a painful period combined with ice-cold soda! While it was still bearable, they said first-time deliveries could last for ten to twenty hours of continuous contractions, and it would only get worse!
Thinking about the upcoming hours of suffering and even stronger pain, Ning Chu felt even more aggrieved. The tears she held back during the pain now flowed freely.
