"I want to protect both of them." Lu Demin frowned, "Is that okay?"

"You can't be so greedy. You can only save one!" said the old Chinese doctor. "It's risky to have a baby at your age. Since there are risks now, you should make a choice early. As the months go by, your body will be affected. By then, you won't even have a choice, and your life will definitely not be saved!"

Xia He pursed her lips. In fact, there was nothing to consider about this kind of thing.

If you have consulted several doctors in succession and they all think you cannot have children, there is no need to take the risk.

Lu Demin said without hesitation, "Let's go to the hospital and have the surgery now! Just pretend that this child is not meant for us. Let's go!"

"..." Bai Baozhi didn't want to move, but continued to ask, "You really can't stay?"

"No." Lu Demin said firmly, "Be obedient."

"Xiao He?" Bai Baozhi looked at Xia He for help, hoping that Xia He could speak up and persuade him.

Xia He sighed softly, "Sister-in-law, what will you do if you are dead when the baby is born? You can't even do the most basic thing of accompanying the child to grow up! Besides, you are not alone, you still have your elder brother and Lu Sa and the others."

Bai Baozhi's tears fell down, "Oh, forget it"

Maybe they really weren't meant to be with this child.

The surgery was arranged immediately after returning to the hospital and went very smoothly. Xia He and Lu Deming waited outside the operating room.

Knowing only that it was a daughter, Lu Demin asked to see the child, but was directly rejected by the nurse.

"The baby this month is not fully developed yet and could easily scare you, or it's gone." The nurse will take care of it.

Lu Demin asked about Bai Baozhi's situation, "How is my wife?"

"Mrs. Lu is in good condition now, don't worry, she will be out in half an hour. I will go to the ward to make arrangements first."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work." Xia He said, comforting Lu Demin, "Brother?"

"I'm fine," Lu Demin waved his hand, his face full of worry, "I'm glad your sister-in-law is fine. She has a very stubborn temper. This child shouldn't have been kept in the first place. She even wanted to hide it from me. Fortunately, the old man told me in advance, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."

Lu Demin shook his head. "It's also my fault that I didn't have a firm mindset at the beginning. If I hadn't let her stay, I wouldn't have to suffer this!"

"Dad, how's my mom?" Lu Sa rushed over, sweating profusely. She grabbed Lu Demin's arm and asked, "Where's she?"

"He's having surgery inside. The doctor said it's going very smoothly and he'll be out in half an hour." Lu Demin said in a low voice, "Where's your brother? You came to the hospital by yourself so late at night?"

"My brother is out discussing business and hasn't come back yet. He doesn't know anything about it. My mom is in the hospital for surgery. My sister-in-law knows about it, but my nephew pesters her and won't let her go out."

Lu Sa said, "I'm glad my mother is okay."

"Yeah." Lu Demin's brows were still furrowed, "It's a little girl."

Lu Sa was stunned for a moment, then she realized what her father meant.

"Dad..." Lu Sa opened his mouth, not knowing how to comfort them about this matter.

At their age, having a child is inherently risky.

Since we can't keep this child, we have no choice but to do it.

I know my parents will be sad today, and I guess they will never think about getting pregnant again.

At first I thought her mother was in good health, but she was not! It turns out that people still have to accept their age.

Lu Sa blinked, "As long as my mother is okay."

Lu Demin nodded slightly, "Wait for your mother to come out later, and stay with her in the hospital tonight."

"Dad, what about you?"

Lu Sa was a little confused.

Normally, her father should have been with her on the first night.

"I suddenly felt a severe pain in the back of my head. I have to go for a check-up later," Lu Deming said. The pain was unbearable and he felt dizzy just standing here.

Hearing this, Xia He looked at him nervously and asked, "Brother, where does it hurt?"

"Here," Lu Demin pointed to the back of his head, "it should be an old problem, nothing serious."

"Headaches at your age are not just old problems. They are most likely cardiovascular diseases. Go get an X-ray right now to see what's going on."

Xia He said with a serious expression: "Xiao Sa, you stay here and wait for your mother to come out. We will come over after the examination. The ward has been arranged."

"Oh, okay." Lu Sa was inexplicably panicked. What happened?

She felt even more uneasy as she watched her aunt and the others leave.

The more this situation happens, the less likely someone is to be around you.

Lu Sa looked at the operating room door nervously, praying silently that her family would be safe.

Xia He's vigilance is not groundless.

There is really something wrong with Lu Demin.

There is intracranial hypertension now, which causes pain in the back of the head. If it continues like this, brain stem hemorrhage will occur.

The neurosurgeon on duty tonight carefully analyzed the situation with Xia He, "In a situation like this, the first thing to do is to lower your blood pressure. You must not overwork yourself and pay more attention to rest."

"Okay," Xia He nodded very seriously, "The situation now is not serious, right?"

“It was discovered in a timely manner.”

"I'm glad you're okay," Lu Demin breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing that he still didn't understand what he meant, the neurosurgeon frowned and explained, "If it causes brain stem hemorrhage, even if the patient is sent to the hospital for emergency treatment in time, the patient may not be saved. The mortality rate is very high, so it must be taken seriously."

After hearing this, Lu Demin's heart immediately tightened, "Is it so serious?"

"Yes." The doctor said, "You are not young anymore. You should pay more attention to your health. If you feel any discomfort, you should come to the hospital for a check-up immediately."

Lu Demin felt a little complicated.

They are both not young anymore, and if they really have a child, they will not have the extra energy to take care of it.

Who will take care of the child then?

No matter who takes care of you, it will definitely not be as good as being taken care of by your biological parents.

What if one of them leaves early...

"How about hospitalization and intravenous drip? It will be better for your condition."

"Okay," Lu Demin agreed immediately. He knew that he must take what the doctor said seriously.

I already feel pain in the back of my head, so at least I need to relieve the symptoms first.

……

Lu Deming's infusion room was arranged to be in the same ward as Bai Baozhi.

Bai Baozhi woke up and was a little confused when he saw him like this, "What's wrong with you?"

"It's okay, the doctor said that the IV drip is good for my health," Lu Demin felt relieved as he stayed by her side.

Bai Baozhi didn't believe it, "Who would be normal enough to get an IV?"

"Really? If you don't believe it, just ask the doctor when he comes." Lu Demin smiled at her comfortingly.

"Xiaohe?"
