Chapter 497

Gu Ren looked at Ye Zhi and felt that his heartbeat was about to stop. He kept paying attention to Ye Zhi's situation and prayed for her safety every minute and every second.

Too much time had passed and Ye Zhi was unable to give birth, so they had to switch to a caesarean section.

The doctor walked out of the operating room and the people who were standing outside stood up. They noticed the look on the doctor's face and knew that something unexpected might have happened.

"Currently, the mother's condition is no longer suitable for a natural delivery and the caesarean section is to be performed immediately. Now, someone needs to sign the consent form for the operation."

Nie Jiqing and Qin Ting froze on the spot, relying on their husbands to support them.

Gu Ren had already come out of the operating room when the consent form for the operation was placed in front of him. Gu Ren seemed to be calm, but everyone saw that his hand was trembling uncontrollably as he held the pen.

Gu Ren felt that the words in front of him were a little blurry. He had written his name many times before, but it had never been as difficult as it was this time.

Every stroke seemed to have been carved onto his heart. At this time, Gu Ren didn't seem like himself at all as his previous calmness had completely disappeared.

All that was left was endless worry and tension, knowing that nothing could calm him down.

After the caesarean section agreement was signed, the surgery immediately commenced. The time it took for the operation went by very quickly and it was over in an hour.

Both mother and son were safe and sound.

Ye Zhi was sent back to the ward, but Gu Ren didn't even look at the child as he stayed by her side.

Even though the doctor had told Gu Ren that Ye Zhi was safe, Gu Ren still stayed by the bedside, waiting for her to wake up.

When Ye Zhi opened her eyes, she saw Gu Ren at first glance.

Gu Ren was not at all in a muddy state despite his exhaustion. As soon as Ye Zhi woke up, he immediately noticed, "You're awake, does the wound hurt?"

Ye Zhi looked at Gu Ren distressedly. She saw Gu Ren's appearance and her eyes were a little astringent.

Because he hadn't slept all this time, Gu Ren's eyes were covered with blood vessels. His hair was messy and there was even a light layer of stubble on his clean chin.

However, even though Gu Ren's appearance was haggard, he still did not lose his temperament.

Ye Zhi shook her head. She was just about to say that it didn't hurt, but the wound on her stomach reminded her that she had just finished a caesarean section.

After the effects of the anaesthetic wore off, the wound actually felt very painful and it was evident through Ye Zhi's facial expressions.

Gu Ren panicked instantly and immediately reminded Ye Zhi, "Don't move around, it'll worsen the wound."

Ye Zhi hadn't spoken for a long time, so her voice was a little hoarse, "I've made you worry."

After Gu Ren stretched out his hand, he gently touched Ye Zhi's cheek, "You're wrong— I was the one who didn't take good care of you, I didn't do good enough."

The caesarean section operation was a more difficult process to recover from, so Gu Ren stayed by Ye Zhi's side all day, taking care of her the whole time.

Ye Zhi was being cared for so well that she almost forgot that she hadn't seen her child yet.

Only then did Gu Ren and Ye Zhi remember the child that they had forgotten about for a long time.

The treasure of the Gu family was yet to be given a nickname.
