“Wife, it’s getting late. Let’s rest,” Su Bin gently suggested, guiding Qin Zhenzhen back to her room.

Suddenly, Qin Zhenzhen winced, rubbing her stomach. “Aiya…”

Alarmed, Su Bin asked, “Wife, what’s happening?”

Enduring the pain, Qin Zhenzhen replied, “I believe it’s time for the birth…

In reality, she had carefully calculated the timeline leading up to the auction. The expected timeframe was either today or tomorrow. A few days prior to delivery, the shape of the pregnancy would shift, with the fetus descending closer to the pelvis.

“A midwife! Get a midwife!” Su Bin urgently called out, holding onto Qin Zhenzhen without letting go.

“Yes!” The secret guard promptly responded.

Trying to reassure her husband, Qin Zhenzhen said, “Don’t worry too much. I’ve already arranged for the midwife to be on standby at home. She might not have gone to sleep yet.”

“Besides, the birthing process isn’t instantaneous. It’s just starting to hurt… Aiya… It hurts!”

Qin Zhenzhen frowned, realizing that the spirit water she believed could alleviate pain was no longer effective during childbirth.

The pain of labor was a unique connection between mother and child—a necessary part of the maternal journey.

There were no shortcuts.

She understood.

She embraced it.

“My dear child, Mother is willing to endure this pain for the joy of bringing you into the world,” Su Bin expressed, swiftly assisting Qin Zhenzhen to the bed and easing her down.

“Wife, are you still in pain?”

“It hurts… It’s just labor pains, coming and going,” Qin Zhenzhen replied, her forehead glistening with sweat. “The further along, the more intense and frequent the pain…”

Su Bin’s heart ached as he wiped her forehead with a handkerchief. “Wife, don’t talk. The midwife will be here soon.

Just as he finished speaking, the midwife arrived. Su Ning and Su Cheng, alerted by Su Bin’s earlier call, hurried over behind the midwife.

“Third Sister-in-law! Third Sister-in-law! Are you giving birth?” Su Ning attempted to enter the room, but Grandma Wang halted her.

“Miss Su, it’s not suitable for you to go in. According to etiquette, unmarried girls shouldn’t enter, and too many people will be a hindrance.”

Understanding, Su Ning nodded and led her younger brother to wait outside the door.

Inside, Qin Zhenzhen’s pain intensified, her forehead becoming more dewy with sweat.

She tried to endure but couldn’t help letting out a cry.

“Ouch…”

Su Bin rolled up his sleeves, offering his arm to Qin Zhenzhen’s mouth. “Wife, if it’s too much, bite my arm!”

Almost amused by his suggestion, Qin Zhenzhen pushed his hand away.

“Are you a masochist? If I really bite you… won’t you die of pain?” Qin Zhenzhen questioned, half in amusement.

Su Bin replied firmly, “Hurry up and bite it. I want to share in your pain. Otherwise, my heart will ache even more!”

“Quickly remove your hand. You need strength to bite people…’

Embarrassed, Qin Zhenzhen wished to shield her face. With a midwife and an older woman in the room, Su Bin didn’t seem concerned about potential laughter.

The experienced midwife, accustomed to witnessing husbands doting on their wives, found Su Bin’s approach unusual. Biting one’s arm was a rarity.

Sensing the imminent moment, the midwife called out, “Prepare more hot water. We’ll need it later.”

With that, she insisted Su Bin leave. “Governor Su, please step outside.” Su Bin resisted, stating, “I’m not leaving. I’ll stay here with my wife.”

The midwife offered a gentle reminder, “According to the rules, men aren’t permitted in the room with a pregnant woman because… I won’t go into details. You understand the reasons. I’m just trying to be considerate..”
