Time Travel: The Queen's Coronation

Time flies, and summer is here again. Even though I’m wearing a cool and loose maternity dress, my pregnant belly is still not very obvious. Although the baby is in good health, he is still relatively small. It’s all my fault for not paying attention in the early stage and letting him lose a lot of nutrition. We will be able to meet in two months, and then mom will definitely make it up to you! I was touching my belly and whispering to the baby, when suddenly a wave of pain hit me, and I froze in place, not daring to move. Then the pain continued to come in waves, and I called Shen Junhui, and he immediately ran up from downstairs.

"What's wrong? What's wrong?" he asked while supporting me.

"It hurts!" I was sweating in pain.

He immediately carried me downstairs and drove me to the hospital. The doctor checked and told us that the baby was about to be born. We were shocked and explained to the doctor that the baby was only more than eight months old, so why was it coming out now? The doctor said that based on the current situation and test results, the baby was about to be born and asked us to be prepared. We had no choice but to accept this fact. I was pushed into the delivery room and Shen Junhui also entered the delivery room to accompany me. He held my hand the whole time and cheered me up. Although he could not relieve the physical pain, it at least gave me great comfort in my heart. Although this child was much smaller than his two brothers, it was still quite tiring. It took a long time for him to come out and I had no strength left. The doctor kept asking me to push because he was afraid that the baby would suffocate if it took too long. I tried my best for the baby and finally heard the baby's clear cry. I collapsed on the bed and couldn't speak.

"The baby is out! Did you hear it?" Shen Junhui held my hand and said to me crying.

I forced a smile in response. The child gave me a quick look before being taken away. When I woke again, it was already night. I opened my eyes and could see nothing, only the dim light of a nightlight. I wanted to turn on the light, but the excruciating pain in my lower body prevented me from moving. I could only wait for someone to come in. After a moment, someone tiptoed in.

"Junhui!" I called out.

The light suddenly came on, and Shen Junhui immediately came over and held my hand, "Aqing, you're awake!"

"What about the child?"

"The baby is still under observation. The doctor said that the baby is premature and underweight and needs to stay in the incubator for a while."

"I didn't fall or do any strenuous exercise, how could I have a premature birth?"

"Maybe the child wants to see his mother too much," Shen Junhui comforted me.

"I feel so sorry for this child! I didn't find him until five months old, and now he's born prematurely!" I cried in self-blame.

"It's okay, it's okay! Medicine is advanced now, so there's nothing to be afraid of! And we can provide the best medical care for children. It's okay, it's okay!" Shen Junhui held my hand and put it against his face to comfort me.

"Where are Jiashu and Jiache?"

"I just came from home and have already told the aunties that they will take good care of it."

"Are they good?"

"They are very well behaved. I told them that mommy is in the hospital giving birth to a little brother and I will bring them to visit tomorrow. They are very happy."

"Thank you!" I looked at Shen Junhui gratefully.

"Why are we being polite to each other?"

"If it weren't for you, I really don't know if I could have saved this child. You risked everything to get my child and me to the hospital. I'm deeply touched and very grateful! Thank you!"

"Don't be polite with me. I told you that I will take care of you and your child! By the way, are you hungry? I asked my aunt to make chicken soup for you." Shen Junhui turned around and picked up the thermos box.

"I don't want to eat. I'm afraid of going to the bathroom. It hurts!"

"It's good to have a drink, otherwise you can't do it without eating or drinking!"

"Later, I have no appetite now."

"Okay then, when you want to eat, remember to call me and I'll heat it up for you."

"Why am I the only one in this ward?" I looked around.

"How could I let you stay in an ordinary ward? I will definitely give you the best!"

"Is this the love of a domineering president?" I said with a smile.

"Of course, I will never let my woman suffer!" Shen Junhui said proudly.

"How can I be so lucky that I can meet a domineering CEO even though I'm divorced!"

"I am so lucky to have met you!"

"Oh! My God! I'm so happy!" I cried with joy.

"Don't cry, don't cry, I'm here!"

Because the pain was too much to sleep, Shen Junhui stayed with me and chatted all night, and we went to bed at dawn. But not long after, I sneezed and woke him up.

"What's wrong?" He stood up reflexively without opening his eyes.

"It's okay, just continue sleeping!"

He looked at his watch and said, "Oh, it's already this late. I have to go pick up the two brothers."

"Don't worry, let them stay at home first. I'll pick them up when I feel better."

"No, they will cry if they can't see their mother. Letting them see her first will put their mind at ease."

"Okay, be careful on the road."

"Yeah, okay." Shen Junhui kissed me and left the ward.

I picked up my phone and announced the news of my second child to the dorm group chat. The three of them cared so much about me, so I didn't have to hide anything from them anymore, and I could share it with them without hesitation. As expected, they were shocked. I had been fine for the past few months, and there was no sign of pregnancy at all. Now, telling them I had given birth to another child was unbelievable. As soon as I shared the news with Xu Jing, she called.

"You're not kidding!"

"Do you think I'm that boring?"

"You're already divorced, why are you still giving birth to a child for him?" Xu Jing angrily scolded me for being incompetent.

"This child is not Rong Zixuan's!"

"What?" Xu Jing was very shocked.

"Shen Junhui's?"

"Neither!"

"Whose is that?"

"Don't worry about who his father is, he is my child!" I replied firmly.

"Are you crazy? Giving birth is very harmful to your body! Do you think giving birth is just a game? Do you have any brains, Wei Qing?"

"Don't scold me first! This child was an accident. He was already over five months old when I found him. He's already formed. There's no way I'm going to abandon him! And he was born prematurely now, so I owe him even more!"

"Premature birth?"

"Yes, so I must take good care of this child."

"I'm really at my wit's end! Boy or girl?"

"boy"

"Three boys! You're in for it!"

Eventually, Xu Jing accepted the situation. She'd helped me so much, so I didn't want to hide anything from her anymore. And if I had any follow-up questions, I could always ask her for help. I felt lucky to have a friend like her. She's strong and confident, and she's always been able to give me advice on many things, serving as both a mentor and a friend. The next day, Xu Jing flew to the US to visit me, returning to Hong Kong only after I was discharged. She's always like that: a sharp tongue but a soft heart, always doing more than she says.

After three months in the incubator, the child finally met the discharge criteria, and the two older brothers finally held their younger brother. The day the child was discharged was exactly one hundred days after his birth, so we held a simple one hundred day banquet at home, and the whole family celebrated the arrival of this new member.
