Chapter 558: Chapter 556 Ningxing Gives Birth 3_1

Newborns need to be cleaned because their bodies are covered in blood, amniotic fluid, and other mixtures, making them dirty.

Finally, the baby is born!

Xia Ningxing sighed with relief, then gathered her last bit of strength to weakly lift her eyelids and glance at the baby being cleaned.

But as soon as she looked, Xia Ningxing almost freaked out.

Ugly!

So incredibly ugly!

She had never seen such an unsightly child!

The infant was a dull gray color, its body all wrinkled, looking like a little old man; the baby hardly had any hair on its head, the eyes were mere slits, and its nose was also flat.

Xia Ningxing was stunned, finding it hard to believe that she and Lu Tingli, both good-looking, could produce such an ugly little one.

Could it be put back in and born again?

Tears!

The next second, Lu Tingli saw Xia Ningxing faint outright.

Uh, fainted from the ugliness, deeply offended!

"Ningxing!" Her fainting nearly scared Lu Tingli to death, his heart was pounding violently as if it could stop at any moment, the lines on his face tensely drawn as if they might split open, his eyes filled with fear.

He immediately roared, "Aunt Lu, stop washing the child, Ningxing has fainted, come here quick and check on her!"

Lu Tingli urged her to come quickly, as for the dirty baby, it can stay wherever it’s cool.

Lu Tingli previously liked children very much, but thinking of how this child caused Xia Ningxing so much agony, he almost wished he could get rid of the little guy.

Fainted?" Hearing this, Aunt Lu was startled too, quickly handed the baby to a nurse for washing, then came forward to check on Xia Ningxing’s condition.

During the check-up, Aunt Lu’s brows were tightly furrowed, as fainting during childbirth is not a good sign.

But after the examination, Aunt Lu was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief and reassured him, "Don’t worry, there’s no serious issue, your wife just fainted from physical exhaustion; she’ll wake up on her own after some rest!"

Hearing this, the anxiety in Lu Tingli’s throat finally settled.

He looked at Xia Ningxing’s pale, bloodless face with gentle eyes, his fingertips lightly wiped the tears on her forehead, and he kissed her cheek.

"I’m sorry, you’ve worked hard."

He expressed sincerely.

After the baby was cleaned, the lights in the operating room dimmed, and the nurses wheeled Xia Ningxing out of the operating room.

"She’s coming out! She’s coming out!!" The moment the lights dimmed, the people waiting outside immediately got up, all eyes fixed on the operating room door.

Soon, the door opened.

Xia Ningxing came out!

Everyone rushed over, bombarding with questions about the condition of Xia Ningxing and the baby.

The old master also anxiously asked Aunt Lu, "Xiuxiu, are the mother and child safe?"

He was very concerned about Xia Ningxing’s pale complexion, fearing something might have gone wrong.

"Dad, don’t worry, both mother and child are safe!" Aunt Lu said smilingly and handed the baby over to him.

"As long as they’re safe, that’s good," the old master finally felt at ease, then carefully took the delicate baby. Looking at the child, tears of joy couldn’t help but well up in his aged eyes.

"Is it really all right? But why does Bao’er seem unconscious?" Mrs. Xia leaned over the bedside, looking at Xia Ningxing’s pallid face and damp hair, and as she thought about what she had just endured, her tears uncontrollably fell.

Although Xia Ningxing was the one who just gave birth, Mrs. Xia felt the pain a million times more agonizingly, her heart sour and tight, as if she could die at any moment.

"Mom, don’t worry," Lu Tingli immediately said, "Ningxing passed out due to exhaustion, it’s no big deal."

"So, that’s the case." Mrs. Xia breathed a sigh of relief instantly, tenderly stroking her jet-black hair.

Soon, Xia Ningxing was taken to the ward to recuperate.

To let her rest properly, everyone else, except for Lu Tingli and Mrs. Xia, waited outside.

The ward was filled with silence.

Neither Lu Tingli nor Mrs. Xia spoke, both of them even breathed softly as if afraid to awaken her.

Their gazes were tightly fixed on Xia Ningxing, hoping she would wake up soon.

Perhaps due to Xia Ningxing’s good physical constitution, she slowly opened her eyes after a while.

"Ningxing! You’re awake?" Seeing her eyes open, Lu Tingli’s stern face, dark and taut, finally cleared up as he looked at her excitedly and smilingly.

Xia Ningxing nodded at him.

"Bao’er!" Mrs. Xia, with tears, couldn’t help but hug her tight.

"Does it still hurt?" Lu Tingli asked, holding her hand, his handsome face filled with deep concern.

"It doesn’t hurt, Lu, don’t worry about me, I’m really fine." Xia Ningxing forced a smile, shook her head at him, and then explained, "Natural childbirth is only excruciating during the delivery, but it shouldn’t be too painful afterward, so don’t be so nervous."

That was also why she had insisted on a natural birth from the start.

The follow-up pain would be less, and her body could recover faster.

If it had been a cesarean section, then while there would be no pain during the birth, the wound afterward would hurt terribly, and the recovery would be much slower compared to natural childbirth.

Of course, the method of delivery would ultimately depend on the doctor’s advice and should not be dictated by one’s own or their family’s wishes, as this issue is life and death, allowing no room for error.

At the time of delivery, the doctors had strongly advised her to have a natural birth because her body was well-suited for it.

If the doctors had said that natural birth wasn’t possible, she would not have insisted, because nothing is more important than the safety of both mother and child.

After listening, Lu Tingli finally felt a bit more at ease: "Good that it doesn’t hurt."

Then, as if something occurred to her, Xia Ningxing asked the two, "By the way, Mom, and Lu, is the baby a boy or a girl?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Tingli immediately exchanged a look with Mrs. Xia, clearly asking: Do you know the baby’s gender?

However...

Neither of them knew.

"I don’t know," Lu Tingli replied awkwardly.

His entire focus was on her; he hadn’t the slightest inclination to care whether the child was a boy or a girl.

"I’m not quite sure either," Mrs. Xia said with equal embarrassment.

"???" A baffled expression formed on Xia Ningxing’s face: "Don’t tell me neither of you have seen the baby?"

"We haven’t." Mentioning the baby visibly soured Lu Tingli’s mood. He snorted, "That little guy caused you so much pain, I don’t want to see it."

He was afraid he might not be able to resist the urge to give someone a beating.

Xia Ningxing’s mouth twitched, what an immature man!

But despite her complaints, Xia Ningxing knew Lu Tingli was just worried about her.

She sighed and, clasping his broad palm, said, "Who doesn’t suffer when giving birth? I’m not the only one. Bring the baby to me quickly, I want to see."
