Leng Hao stood outside the operating theater and waited for a long time. The time was so long it felt like a century had passed. He could hear the doctors talking inside. They seemed to be asking someone to inhale and exhale...
He did not hear Ye Xiaotao's voice anymore, not a sound at all. Induction of labor for a more than six months old baby was the same as giving birth. In the past, she laid on his back and told him, "Dear, I saw the pregnant women screaming like a pig being slaughtered when they were pushed into the delivery room. I will probably act the same way because I'm most afraid of pain. When that time comes, you have to accompany me and wait for me outside. The moment I come out, I will be able to see you..."
But now, she did not make a sound.
No matter how painful it was, she would not scream anymore.
