Chenglei was waiting outside the room where Xing was giving birth with his hands tightly clenched together as he paced to and fro. It's been half a day since her contractions started and she still haven't given birth.
Xing's cousin--in-laws were the ones guarding the door to not let in the mean looking man from entering inside. They were specifically asked by Xing to not let her husband in so that he can take care of Lian Lian.
Time passed and even after a couple of hours, Xing haven't given birth yet and only her piercing screams could be heard at a certain interval.
Chenglei wanted to break the door to enter the room but seeing his worried son beside him, he picked him up and went to the dining room to feed his son even though he didn't feel hungry.
Please be okay, Xing! Please...
Chenglei downed cup after cup of tea waiting for news but none arrived and he hurriedly put his son to bed when he received a letter for Xing with the Imperial seal.
I know you guys must be sad and angry at me even, for making the Emperor suffer. But you might remember I wrote that the Emperor didn't have any children apart from the three kids with Chu Weiye, previously.
His fate is what I always had in mind even from the beginning of the book. His red thread with Xing was broken by her and he will not have a successful love life this incarnation. He will have everything else but not love of a woman.
Sorry... Please don't stone me...
