“Xia Ling, I allowed you to keep it, but that doesn’t mean you can bring it everywhere with you!” Pei Ziheng said coldly.

Xia Ling spent a few seconds before she clearly understood what he said and was frightened. He wanted to hide that amulet, but he snatched it before she could. “You shouldn’t be holding on to this sort of thing.” He said domineeringly as he glanced at her coldly. “Don’t use this amulet as an excuse to keep you safe. I will ensure your safety.”

“Give... It... Back...” Her voice was hoarse and her mind was in a mess. The lower half of her body hurt immensely, and she felt that her body was being ripped apart and fried in a frying pan. “Give me back... the amulet...”

Pei Ziheng coldly looked at her. “I will accompany you. The amulet will not.”

He gave the amulet to the nurse and instructed. “Take it back.”

The nurse looked at the pitiful madam on the bed. She already had tragic childbirth but was still arguing with her husband at this critical moment. However, this was not something she could control, so she carefully acknowledged him and took the amulet out of the ward.

“Give it back!” Xia Ling cried.

The pain of childbirth was so intense, but she held back because she was afraid of losing strength and could not deliver the baby later. She also had the belief that if she had the amulet, it was like Li Lei was by her side, and she would be fearless.

However, now, the amulet was taken away.

Her belief was falling apart.

Suddenly, she was unsure if she were able to successfully give birth to her child.

“Give...” She cried out. Another wave of pain hit her and she was speechless again.

Pei Ziheng was heartbroken seeing her in pain, but he hardened his heart and refused to give the amulet back to her. “With me here, you’ll be fine.” He said softly and calmly. “I will stay by your side.”

He did not believe that him, a living man, could not match up to an amulet.

Xia Ling was about to collapse. She hoarsely cried out and turned her body. She was in a very unstable state. The doctor told her not to cry or scream out unnecessarily to save her strength, but she had long forgotten about that. She was extremely scared and was consumed with irrational thoughts. What should she do? If something happened to her child, what should she do?

“Oh my god, what happened?” A nurse pushed the door open and was shocked by Xia Ling’s condition. “You can’t continue like this Mrs. Pei!” She leaned over to check Xia Ling’s condition and urgently said, “Your cervix has not dilated to the appropriate width. If you use all your strength now, you won’t have any left to give birth to your child!”

Xia Ling vaguely heard her words, and her lost logical reasoning came back. She barely controlled herself, but once her emotional breach was open, it was not easy to recover from it. She was muddle-headed and did not know how long she had waited until a nurse came in the second time. The nurse said, “You can go into the delivery room now, Mrs. Pei. Don’t be nervous. Good luck!”

Xia Ling did not feel very lucky.

During this period, her physical condition was very poor. She had also wasted a lot of energy arguing with Pei Ziheng just now. Right now, even if she used all of her energy, she could not successfully push her child out. She worked hard for a long time, but her strength diminished gradually.

The doctor and the nurse were very anxious. “I don’t think she is able to give birth to her child at this rate.”

The doctor looked for Pei Ziheng and concisely told him about the current situation. “There are two ways now,” the doctor said. “One would be to use delivery forceps to get the child out. However, this way may cause injuries to the child such as deformities, cerebral palsy, and other unexpected problems. Of course, the child may also be safe. Another way would be to perform a cesarean section. This may hurt the woman going through childbirth more, and recovery may take a longer time. Pei Ziheng, please make a decision.”

“Delivery forceps.” Pei Ziheng said unhesitatingly.

“Mr. Pei?” The nurse at the side was rather shocked. Xia Ling stayed in the hospital for many days, and she knew very well that Xia Ling cared about her baby very much such that she was unwilling to let it suffer the slightest injury. If Xia Ling had a choice, she would definitely choose a cesarean section. Unfortunately, she was hurting so much that she could not think clearly, and the hospital could only ask her husband for further decisions.

“Aren’t you going to think about it for a while more?” The nurse asked. “The technology used for cesarean section is very advanced now, while using the forceps is more dangerous.” It was so strange, listening to the news, this child should be the eldest son of Mr. Pei. Logically speaking, he should be more important than Mrs. Pei. How could he not care about him now?

“If the child is lost, we can have another one. There is only one Xiao Ling.” Pei Ziheng said lowly as he seemed to have guessed what the nurse was thinking.

Startled, the nurse finally realized how in love this man was. He was really the best husband in China! Many people were willing to make their wives suffer for the sake of their children. However, Mr. Pei who was in a high position had endless power and could have any woman he wanted was devoted to his wife and was unwilling to let her suffer any harm.

The nurse was extremely touched.

However, she did not know that Pei Ziheng did not care much about the child because it was not his. He really wanted the child dead forever.

The touched nurse went to prepare the forceps.

“Mrs. Pei, we will now use the forceps to help you get the child out.” The medical staff surrounded Xia Ling and said, “Bear with it. Both you and your child will be safe.”

“I don’t want to use the forceps...” She protested weakly, but because her voice was too soft, no one heard it.

This was the best maternity hospital in the city. The group of doctors and nurses said the consequences were very serious in front of Pei Ziheng, but when they actually used the forceps to get the child out, they were extremely careful and did their best to protect the child.

The child was pulled out.

Its body was purple, drenched in blood, and its eyes were shut.

“He’s not crying.” A nurse softly said.

Xia Ling also realized it and was very worried. “Why is he not crying?” She looked at the child. He was wrinkled, ugly, and scrawny looking. She did not even know if he were alive.

Anxiously, she started crying. “What’s wrong with him?”

The nurse hit the child twice, but he still did not cry.

“Quickly rescue him!” They decided promptly. One nurse half-knelt beside Xia Ling to comfort her. “Mrs. Pei, don’t worry too much. Our hospital encounters new infants that don’t cry frequently every year. Many of them were rescued, so don’t worry.”

How could she not worry? She supported her exhausted body as she waited for the news of her child.
