Chapter 2543: Chapter 2544: Delivering a Baby

“Don’t say such things.”

Lin Yi held onto Liang Ruoxu’s hand firmly, “To me, the child isn’t important. With you, life has meaning.”

Liang Ruoxu smiled radiantly, as if in that moment, the immense pain she was feeling dissolved entirely.

Watching the couple’s heartfelt moment from not far away, the young nurses couldn’t help but feel a bit moved.

“What a good man. If I could find a man like him, I’d be willing to have a whole litter of kids.”

“Well, I wouldn’t even care if he was considerate or not. If he looked as handsome as that, I’d be ready to have a whole litter too.”

“But he’s got guts. We’ve had lots of men come in here before, and very few stayed as calm as him.”

“Everyone grows up in a different environment; you can’t generalize. Let’s go check on them. This family is quite important, so we need to pay extra attention.”

The bespectacled nurse walked over to Liang Ruoxu, checked briefly, and said:

“You’re already at nine centimeters. Hang in there just a little longer.”

Lin Yi nodded. He understood what was happening and silently organized everything in his mind to avoid any unexpected problems.

“At this point, why hasn’t the amniotic sac broken yet?” another young nurse remarked.

“Dr. Liu, please come take a look.”

At the call of the nurse, a woman in her forties walked over.

“Let’s wait a little longer. Everyone’s body is different—some faster, some slower. Let’s observe for a bit and decide.”

Liang Ruoxu clung tightly to Lin Yi’s hand, feeling a bit anxious.

“If the water doesn’t break, the baby can’t come out, right?”

“This is a common occurrence. With modern medical methods, handling this kind of situation is no issue at all. I’m here, so don’t be scared.”

Liang Ruoxu nodded, her tense mood easing somewhat.

Even though she had never shown her vulnerable side in front of Lin Yi, he was always her last line of defense in her heart.

As long as he was there, even if it were the end of the world, she wouldn’t be afraid.

At this moment, Liang Ruoxu was in so much pain that she could no longer speak.

All Lin Yi could do was stay quietly beside her.

“Teacher Liu, she’s already at ten centimeters, but the water hasn’t broken.”

The nurse assisting in delivery spoke with a tinge of urgency in her voice.

“Let’s wait one more minute. If there’s still no sign of rupture, we’ll manually break the water.”

“Understood.”

Soon, a minute had passed, and there were still no signs of rupture.

Dr. Liu—who had been addressed as Teacher Liu—brought out the necessary tools, preparing to manually break the water.

As the female doctor approached, Liang Ruoxu’s heart sank, and she instinctively tightened her grip on Lin Yi’s hand.

“I’m a little scared… can you do it instead?”

Lin Yi nodded and looked at the female doctor, saying:

“Excuse me, my wife is feeling a bit scared. Let me handle this.”

“Hmm?”

Lin Yi’s words stunned everyone.

“You want to do it?” The female doctor looked at Lin Yi in confusion. “This is manually breaking the water. It’s not the same as popping a balloon.”

Knowing the family’s prominence, the female doctor remained polite. But in her heart, her impression of Lin Yi shifted—she thought he might not be quite normal.

“Uh…”

Lin Yi paused for a moment. “I mean, although it’s not like popping a balloon, the principle is similar, right?”

The female doctor and the two assisting nurses were rendered speechless.

Just a moment ago, they thought this man was wonderful—not only good-looking but also very attentive to his wife.

But unexpectedly, he turned out to be so clueless, equating manually breaking the water to popping a balloon!

Even ignorance should have its limits, shouldn’t it?

“Sir, I hope you don’t doubt our professional ability, and please don’t blindly assume this is a trivial matter. The mother’s condition leaves no room for delay. I hope you don’t—”

Squeak—

At this moment, the delivery room door opened, and a woman with graying hair entered. She was at least in her sixties.

“Director Chen, you’re here.”

The woman’s name was Chen Shihua, the deputy head of Xiehe Obstetrics and Gynecology.

Although she was the deputy, her personal achievements and dazzling resume easily outshone someone like Li Chuhan.

Additionally, five years ago, she had been awarded the title of Academician by the Academy of Engineering. In the fields of obstetrics and prenatal diagnostics, she was undeniably a leading authority!

As for why the chief head wasn’t called in, it was because he was a man.

Moreover, it was just a childbirth case. Liang Ruoxu was young, and it was her first child. With Chen Shihua’s capability, she could handle it with ease.

After all, people used to give birth at home in their own beds, and everything turned out fine then, too.

“How has this taken so long? Isn’t she fully dilated yet?” Chen Shihua asked.

Since Liang Ruoxu’s pregnancy, Chen Shihua had been responsible for her checkups. Naturally, she would also oversee the delivery.

However, Liang Ruoxu’s condition developed suddenly. By the time she was taken to the hospital, Chen Shihua had been on her way back to Beijing, so she arrived a little late.

“She’s already fully dilated, but the water hasn’t broken. We were planning to manually break it,” the female doctor explained.

“But the patient’s husband wants to handle it himself. He said it’s similar to popping a balloon, so I was in the middle of explaining—”

“Then let Principal Lin do it. His expertise in this area isn’t inferior to yours.”

While Lin Yi’s clinical skills were world-class, they were mostly in the realm of cardiovascular surgery.

In fields like obstetrics and prenatal diagnosis, he couldn’t compare to someone like Chen Shihua.

However, aside from experts of Chen Shihua’s level, most others indeed lagged behind him in skills.

“P-Principle Lin…?”

The female doctor and two nurses were dumbfounded.

They had no idea where this title came from.

“Principal Lin used to be the director of cardiovascular surgery at Huashan Hospital in Zhong Hai, a world-class clinical expert. Since his wife is giving birth, let him handle this—it’ll help alleviate the mother’s psychological stress.”

“D-Director of Cardiovascular Surgery…”

The three of them were flabbergasted, struggling to process this information.

Although Huashan Hospital wasn’t as prestigious as Xiehe, it was also undeniably top-notch.

To have held the position of director there at such a young age, and to gain Teacher Chen’s acknowledgment, his ability was undoubtedly formidable.

“I used to be. I’ve since resigned…” Lin Yi explained with a smile.

The trio’s worldview felt completely shattered. They couldn’t believe they had encountered such a legend.

“Principal Lin, please go ahead. We’re all in the same profession, so there’s nothing more for me to say. Just take care of it,” Chen Shihua remarked.

Chen Shihua, being highly skilled and confident, even in the presence of the Liang family, carried herself with calm assurance rather than excessive caution.

As the saying goes, those with real abilities often have the biggest tempers.

“Alright then, I’ll do it.”

Although Liang Ruoxu was reluctant to let Lin Yi see her in such a vulnerable state, at this moment, she could no longer care about such matters.

Lin Yi stretched his hands, sterilized them again, and began assisting with the delivery.

After about twenty minutes, the baby’s first cry echoed through the delivery room.

Lin Yi’s hands trembled uncontrollably.

From this moment on, he was officially a father.
