As soon as he answered the call, Dong Wan’s voice came through, “Zhenbang, are you busy?”

Upon hearing this, Nie Zhenbang let out a sigh of relief. With her tone of voice, it seemed there wasn’t anything urgent. He then he laughed and replied, “Wan, do you need anything?”

At this moment, Dong Wan spoke softly, “Mm, Zhenbang, I’ve felt a bit unwell these past few days. Li Xue said it could be pregnancy-related. I’m thinking of going back to Jingcheng for a while for some rest and prenatal care. Also, after giving it some thought, I think it’s better if Li Xue gives birth in Jingcheng. It’s getting close to her due date, and if true labor starts, it’ll be too late to get there.”

“Going to Jingcheng for confinement?” Nie Zhenbang was taken aback.

“Yes, Zhenbang, think about it. Here, you can’t possibly take care of all of us. An Na and I in our current state probably won’t be much assistance either. It will definitely be more convenient in Jingcheng. Besides, as you know, Uncle Nie and the others are all in Jingcheng…” Dong Wan’s voice remained calm and gentle as always.

Hearing Dong Wan’s words, Nie Zhenbang understood. Truly, it was uncertain if they could hire help here. At worst, they could ask Huang Xuyang’s wife Li Fen to help. But Dong Wan was right. This would be the first of kind in the Nie family’s fourth generation. It would be advantageous if Li Lixue could gain the family’s acceptance while on confinement in Jingcheng.

Back to the call, after some deliberation, Nie Zhenbang nodded and agreed, “That sounds good. You stay put at home, I’ll have a word with my big uncle and let him make arrangements at Liangxi Airport. We’ll charter a small business jet to Jingcheng.”

After hanging up the phone, Nie Zhenbang calculated the time. Li Lixue’s due date was on the day after tomorrow at any time labor could start. It should be no problem for him to take a week off from his work. Although his work in Liangxi City was important, he couldn’t neglect his personal life. Li Lixue had silently contributed a lot at his side, even managing Tenglong’s enormous fortune. Having their first child without him by her side, would be completely unacceptable.

Nie Zhenbang immediately called his Uncle Nie Guodong, and without any hesitation, agreed straightaway.

Now with his uncle’s approval, Nie Zhenbang felt reassured. Having the Commander of Jingcheng City Military District on board, this minor issue would not be a problem at all.

Afterward, Nie Zhenbang called Ning Shouchang. According to the rules within the system, at Nie Zhenbang’s level, a director general, if he absents from work for a day or half without permission, especially for non-work-related reason like him now having to leave the province and rest for a week, he need to apply for a leave from his executive unit.

According to these rules, Nie Zhenbang should apply for leave to the Provincial Party Committee Office and the Provincial Government Office. However, the circumstances were unusual, so after some contemplation, Nie Zhenbang simply chose to call Ning Shouchang directly.

Ning Shouchang, on his end, agreed promptly to Nie Zhenbang’s leave request without asking any further questions. Hanging up he said to Huang Xuyang “Xuyang, I have some personal matters and will be heading to Jingcheng for a few days. Keep an eye on the City’s work, and contact me anytime if something comes up.”

Money talks. Less than two in the afternoon, Nie Zhenbang and his party of four drove their car directly into the Military Liangxi Airport of Liangxi City.

By now, a Bombardier Challenger series business jet from Eastern Airlines was waiting on the tarmac. The airport’s station chief, a colonel of about fifty, greeted him, “Mayor Nie, it’s a pleasure. I didn’t expect you to be Commander Nie’s nephew. My name is Liang Zhenjun, I hope our military and civilian sides can maintain our close relationship.”

Nie Zhenbang smiled. Currently, the Liangxi City Government had been working hard on the militarisation of Liangxi Airport. It was necessary to build good relations with the military at this time. After exchanging a few pleasantries, Nie Zhenbang apologetically said, “Station Chief Liang, I am sorry. There are some urgent matters that need to be addressed in Jingcheng. After I’ve returned, I will come to visit you.”

Upon boarding the plane, two well-trained flight attendants came over to greet them. An Na was amazed, “Brother Zhenbang, this plane is too good. I think we also need to buy one for our family.”

Yang Anna might have gotten married and put on a composed demeanor of a sophisticated lady in public, but in front of her family, she was still childlike in character.

The flight attendant next to them introduced, “Sir and esteemed ladies, this is Bombardier’s Challenger series business jet. Apart from the two crew members and two flight attendants, it can accommodate eight more passengers. At the tail of the plane, there’s an area for catering and a restroom. The large horizontal sofa and these first-class seats can be flexibly arranged. I am the chief flight attendant of this trip, my name is Zhang Lin. If you need anything, please don’t hesitate to ask.”

After all, it took a certain level of professionalism in them to be selected as flight attendants for business jets. Plus, their ability to coordinate landing at a military airport was not something ordinary flight attendants could take lightly.

The plane took off very quickly. To consider the pregnant woman, all three of them took on a semi-reclining position. Nevertheless, the smoothness of the business jet made Nie Zhenbang interested. With his financial resources, not to mention a tens of millions business jet like this, even an intercontinental jumbo jet from Boeing or Airbus that cost over a hundred million dollars would be no problem.

He figured he’d be working away from home quite a bit in the future. Having a private jet like this would be very convenient for both him and his women.

Around five in the evening, the plane landed steadily at the military airport in the southern suburb. Nie Zhenbang had already arranged for this to happen in advance. Li Lixue was immediately admitted into the obstetrics and gynecology department of the military general hospital. Dong Wan and Anna, however, wanted to go back home to check on things.

…

Outside of the delivery room in the maternity ward of the military general hospital, many members of the Nie family were waiting. Ye Shuxian, the mother-in-law, had hurried back from Yanbei. Nie Ziyu was also standing by. Eldest brother Nie Jialei and his wife were also waiting nearby.

Yang Anna and Dong Wan were sitting nearby, and Yang Anbang and Dong Wu from the Dong family were also accompanying them. Nie Zhenbang, on the other hand, was pacing around.

His elder sister, Nie Guoping, was laughing and scolding him, “Young man, now you know what it’s like to be anxious and worried. Relax and don’t worry. Childbirth isn’t that dangerous. I’ve seen Li Xue’s prenatal test report and she shouldn’t have any problem with a natural birth. You’re just a typical case of anxiety because it involves yourself.”

Next to her, Anna teased, “Mom, this is too scary. I’m afraid to give birth now.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Nie Ziyu joked, “My dear Anna, my poor sister-in-law, are you scared? I heard that childbirth can be very painful, and it might also alter your figure.”

The two girls had been classmates since they were young. Nie Ziyu naturally tried to act more familiar. Yang Anna caught on immediately and raised an eyebrow, “Alright, Nie Ziyu, you dared to scare me. Hum, believe it or not, I can leak news tomorrow and marry off this hateful little aunt of yours.”

Nie Zhenbang felt very nervous. After all, this was his first child. He was about to become a father, right? Also, he hadn’t been able to give Li Lixue a proper spouse title. Would the child end up like him? Various thoughts were flying through his mind, giving him a sense of gain and loss.

He clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, muttering to himself, but he had already made up his mind. No matter how many obstacles he faced, even if he had to let go of his officer title, he would never let his child suffer even a little bit.

Just then, a loud cry sounded from the delivery room. A doctor walked out, took off his mask, smiled, and said, “Dir. Nie, congratulations. You have a girl. She weighs six jin and seven liang. Both mother and daughter are safe. The nurse is currently cleaning the baby. After tending to the mother, they can both come out.”

Upon hearing this, Nie Zhenbang instantly collapsed onto the ground. At this moment, it felt as if he had just been through a tough battle, muttering to himself, “I’m a father now. I’m a father now.” (
