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.
Ou Ming kept walking back and forth like a madman, his fists clenched at his sides. He didn’t seem to hear Ou Huojin ‘s words.
“Ou Ming, let’s eat first,” Qiao Ziqing called out to him, and Ou Ming suddenly raised his head.
He glanced at them and said, “You go ahead. I’m not hungry. I’ll wait right here for Yu Lili to come out.”
He said he was waiting for Yu Lili, not the child.
It was only a few words difference, but the meaning was one hundred percent different.
Qiao Ziqing felt distressed. Ou Huojin said, “We’ll bring you some food back later.”
“No, I’ll wait for her to come out so we can eat together.” Ou Ming looked at them and said, “Mom, is it really painful for a woman to give birth?”
“Of course it’s painful!” Qiao Ziqing looked at him and said, “Hmph, you didn’t realize that for your own mother, who gave birth to you, yet you act so concerned when your wife is the one giving birth. How typical.”
