I Became The Stepmother of My Ex-husband

Chapter 98: Pearl

She was actually very afraid of pain.

Gu Cheng Yao's thoughts galloped wildly, suddenly heard the sound of orderly and powerful footsteps from behind, and the whole mansion seemed to get excited by this. Gu Cheng Yao felt an imposing air, quickly turned around. As expected, Yan Wang was back.

"Father."

The people in the courtyard were surprised and delighted. The maid that was holding the water basin immediately put the things in her hands, knelt on the ground and deeply pressed her forehead on the ground: "Wangye!"

Gu Hui Yan nodded casually, without looking at the people, but fell straight on the closed door of the delivery room: "She has gone in?"

"Answering Wangye, Wangfei has been in the delivery room for half an hour."

Gu Hui Yan's eyes fell on the door, the expression on his face condensed. He was still wearing an inky black court dress, the sun and moon and beasts on his body were magnificent and rich. Perhaps it was because he hasten his return, Gu Hui Yan's aura still carried the majestic he showed in Shanxi and Shaanxi: "Isn't it supposed to be mid-April? How can it be so much earlier?"

The maid shook her head and said that she didn't know, Gu Hui Yan waved his hand with a calm face and motioned them to do their own thing.

Gu Hui Yan came back early. Although he didn't say a word, the atmosphere in the entire courtyard suddenly changed. This invisible change was far beyond Gu Cheng Yao's ability.

Gu Cheng Yao lowered his head silently, clenching the hand that was about to extend a while ago. During this period of time when his father was not in the mansion, he paid respect morning and evening every day. Although most of the time Lin Wei Xi could not be seen, but it gave him an illusion, perhaps it would be good to live such peaceful and regular days. Lin Wei Xi suddenly gave birth prematurely, and Gu Cheng Yao rushed to the scene immediately. Separated by thin walls, Lin Wei Xi was inside, and he waited anxiously outside. This was also easy to create a sense of confusion.

But now, all falsehoods and delusions had been shattered by force. Gu Hui Yan had return.

With him just stood there and didn't to say anything, he became the backbone for everyone. Presumably, the maids had already passed the news to the delivery room, the midwife's voice obviously became more rhythmic, and it was clear that the mother's mood had stabilized.

The dark blue sky turned into a deep black, and then gradually turned into ink black. The stars filled up the whole sky, and it was already three hours since Lin Wei Xi entered the delivery room.

Looking at the basin full of watery blood from the delivery room, Gu Hui Yan who led the troops to fight battle for many years, felt dizzy and palpitated for the first time.

"Is that her blood?"

The maid with the blood basin stopped and hurriedly saluted in this position: "Answering Wangye, not entirely, there is already hot water in the basin."

But even this was scary enough. The little maid who replied hurriedly ran away and returned with a new basin of hot water. Gu Hui Yan watched these people around him come and go, in his half lifetime that although was not that long but could be said to experienced strong wind and big waves, he felt scared for the first time.

He hurriedly left the capital that day. It was true that the situation in Guanzhong was not optimistic, he was anxious to deal with the disaster. But there was also a small factor that he did not know how to face Lin Wei Xi. Simply avoiding in the name of disaster relief, he thought, he needs to calm down for a while.

When he was in Xi'an, he helped victims of the disaster, mobilized provisions, rebuilt houses, as well as sprayed medicines to guard against the plague after a natural disaster. There were endless tasks waiting for him every day, and Gu Hui Yan had absolutely no time to let his imagination run wild. But in the dead of night, when he sat in the Governor's Mansion, his thoughts would always uncontrollably float to Lin Wei Xi. Lin Wei Xi was experiencing morning sickness when he left, didn't know if it's better now. He heard that women would have cramps in the later stages of pregnancy, sometimes could not sleep all night, and yet he irresponsibly abandoned her and left...
