Indulging Mrs. Lu-Chapter 868 - 865: It’s... That Girl, Ning Mo

Chapter 6

Finally, Yang Qiao’s crying gradually subsided. She said, "The baby... the baby is gone... boo hoo hoo hoo hoo..."

Hearing this, the anxious expression on Xiao Anze’s face suddenly relaxed. He bent down, embraced her, and whispered in her ear, "The baby is still here. He was born, but because he was premature, the doctor recommends he stay in an incubator for a few days for observation."

Yang Qiao immediately stopped crying, her tearful eyes fixed on Xiao Anze, "You’re not lying to me?"

"No!" Xiao Anze took out his phone, pressed a few buttons and showed it to her, "Look, here’s his picture. He’s sleeping soundly in the incubator." He had stepped away earlier to take the photo.

He understood Yang Qiao well; if she woke up and couldn’t see the baby, she would be inconsolable, as she had pinned too many hopes on this child.

Yang Qiao stared at the photo of the quiet newborn, curled up with closed eyes. His small face wasn’t fully developed, but his long eye lines were visible. The baby’s skin was fair, just like hers.

As she looked, she started crying again.

Xiao Anze, feeling helpless, resorted to the doctor’s advice to scare her, "The doctor said you just gave birth, you shouldn’t cry; it’s bad for your eyes."

Yang Qiao wiped her tears, speaking with a sob, "Where’s Yang Zi? And Ning Mo? If it wasn’t for her pushing me, I think I would’ve been crushed to death."

Xiao Anze suddenly fell silent.

Sensing his unease, she asked, "What’s wrong?"

"Yang Zi is also in the hospital, but... he’s not in good condition."

Yang Qiao frowned, "Was he injured? Or was Ning Mo injured?"

"It’s... the girl, Ning Mo." Xiao Anze said, his eyes briefly showing a touch of sorrow, which Yang Qiao caught despite it being fleeting.

A sense of foreboding washed over her as Yang Qiao tentatively asked, "Did something happen to Ning Mo?"

Xiao Anze sat beside her, holding her hand and said, "She just came out of the emergency room; she’s still not out of danger."

"How can this be?" Yang Qiao’s heart pounded heavily, and she shook her head, "Impossible, absolutely impossible. She pulled me up, pushed me out; how could she be injured?"

"Qiaoqiao, don’t get agitated; if you do, your wounds will open..." It took Xiao Anze a long time to calm her down. He said, "I heard from Yang Zi, that when she pushed you out, the wooden beam above was already falling..."

"So, Ning Mo originally had a chance to escape, but to push me out, she got hit by the beam?"

Xiao Anze pressed his lips and nodded.

He had gone to see Ning Mo and knew her injury was on her head. The doctors said she had a cerebral hemorrhage and her head was deformed from the impact. To prevent affecting Yang Zi’s mood, he privately asked the doctors, who told him Ning Mo’s chances of survival were slim, and they should prepare for the worst.

Xiao Anze intended to tell Yang Zi about this, but seeing him sincerely begging the doctors to save her, he ultimately couldn’t say it.

Yang Qiao cried again, this time silently.

"It’s all my fault; if I hadn’t insisted on having Yang Zi bring her along, she wouldn’t have gotten hurt. It’s all my fault..."

Xiao Anze knew Yang Qiao’s words were true, but this truth left him unable to offer any comforting words.

After a long while, Yang Qiao stopped, "I want to see A Zi~"
