Chapter 220 Protecting Madam
Why did he suddenly think of this again? But he still stood up and ordered his servants to do it.
Fearing that the servants might mix other things into her food, he decided to supervise her personally.
During her pregnancy, he personally took care of almost everything, from food to other necessities.
But if he goes to the kitchen, he can't stay here and watch her.
Zhongli Yueluo gave him a reassuring look, and only then did he feel at ease and leave.
Not long after he left, Zhongli Yueluo's belly started to move very vigorously.
Then came waves of pain.
Tao Xia, who used to be inseparable from her, is now nowhere to be seen; she is in so much pain that her forehead is covered in a fine sweat.
Clutching the teacup tightly in his hand, he looked towards the doorway, but there was no one outside.
She opened her mouth, but the sound that came out was very weak. Finally, she touched her stomach.
He forced himself to stand up and walked slowly to the door, leaning against the doorframe.
There wasn't a single servant in this huge garden, and she gritted her teeth in pain.
"Lord Feng..."
Meanwhile, Su Fengjun was in the kitchen selecting lotus seeds.
She picked out every single lotus seed heart from the lotus, because the lotus seeds were too cooling for her to eat.
Zhongli Yueluo felt her stomach getting heavier and heavier, and then she felt something burst.
A warm current flowed from her body, and she slowly collapsed to the ground, her consciousness becoming somewhat blurred.
"Feng Jun...it hurts so much..."
His face was as pale as paper, and his consciousness was gradually fading. Tao Xia watched from the shadows, a cold smile curling at the corner of her lips.
Until Zhongli Yueluo's consciousness completely disappeared, a large pool of blood flowed out beneath her.
Tao Xia then ran around the yard in a panic, shouting, "Something terrible has happened! Something terrible has happened!"
Many people put down what they were doing and listened intently to find out what was wrong.
"Madam has fainted!"
At that moment, the sound also reached the kitchen.
Su Fengjun froze, holding the lotus seed soup in her hand, and then the bowl fell to the ground with a thud, shattering into several pieces.
Lotus seed soup spilled all over the floor.
She rushed out without stopping, her face turning ashen; she had been feeling unwell before she left.
The soup had just been cooked when she fainted. In a moment of panic, she used all her magical powers to reach the door.
Many servants were already gathered there.
The midwife who usually resides in the mansion is already squatting there checking on Zhongli Yueluo's condition.
She was also pale and covered in sweat, wiping it with her sleeve from time to time.
Originally, Zhongli Yueluo was in very good health, so why did she suddenly show signs of premature death?
Even though it was full term, there shouldn't have been such heavy bleeding.
Seeing Su Fengjun standing there, the midwife immediately rushed forward: "Sir, the lady's condition is not good."
Su Fengjun's eyes suddenly reddened. What did he mean by "not good"?
He clenched his fists and stared at the midwife: "What's wrong with the lady?!"
"There was a lot of blood loss, I'm afraid..."
"No matter what happens, we must protect her!" Su Fengjun lowered her voice, trying her best not to lose her temper.
Despite all the precautions, they still couldn't stop it, and the group moved Zhongli Yueluo to the bed.
Su Fengjun wanted to go in but was stopped at the door, told that it was unlucky for a man to go in.
Despite everyone's attempts to stop him, he still went into the delivery room. At this time, Zhongli Yueluo's breathing was extremely weak.
He was afraid. No, he couldn't lose her!
He concentrated his magical power and focused his mind on her.
After the magic power circulated through her body, Zhongli Yueluo's furrowed brows relaxed slightly.
"My lord, the lady has woken up." The midwife breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Zhongli Yueluo awake.
"Feng Jun...it hurts so much...it hurts so much."
"I'm here, I'm here, Yue Luo." He quickly pushed aside the people blocking his way and took her hands in his.
At this moment, Zhongli Yueluo's lips were pale and cracked, and her eyes were empty and lifeless.
The bleeding from her lower body still hadn't stopped.
"Our child... ah!"
As he said those words, his body contorted again, and her fingernails dug into Su Fengjun's hand.
She pinched his hand so hard it left several bloody marks, and he looked at her with heartache.
"Oh dear, madam, push!" the midwife cried anxiously.
It's clear that if anything happens to this lady, this lord will definitely kill her!
"Ah...!" She screamed in agony, and Su Fengjun was also terrified. He wished he could take her pain away from her!
Zhongli Yueluo's voice grew softer and softer until even her breathing became slow and deliberate.
But before she could see the child, Zhongli Yueluo's grip on Feng Jun loosened, and she slowly let go.
Su Fengjun held her tightly, afraid that she would slip away from him!
"Yue Luo!"
"Madam!" the midwife cried out, her voice trembling with tears.
Zhongli Yueluo's eyes darted around: "The child... the child is still alive..."
She moved her fingers, wanting a child. This was the result of her many months of hard pregnancy, and tears streamed down her face.
"What are you standing there for, Madam Bao!"
Su Fengjun was no longer listening to anyone else and kept pouring his magic power into Zhongli Yueluo's body.
That allowed her to stay alive, she slowly opened her eyes again: "Lord Feng..."
"I'm here, I'm here." She dared not stop channeling her magic, for she was too weak.
"I see the child's head, madam, I see it!"
"Feng Jun, listen to me... It's not easy for the twins of the Wind Spirit Ghosts to be born..."
"Don't talk, Yueluo! We can talk about it later."
He grasped her hand, channeling his magic from his fingertips into her spiritual sea, which restored a sliver of clarity to her.
"Let them stay, I want them to stay... Oh, by the way, didn't you make me lotus seed soup?"
"Please, please stop talking."
It is said that men do not easily shed tears, but Su Fengjun's eyes were now brimming with tears.
"What's there to cry about? You've been with me for so many years, you're tired of me anyway."
"Yue Luo...no...it's not."
"Ah!" she screamed again, followed by the loud cry of a child.
It was a boy. The midwife cried, and finally, one was born.
"Ah...ah!" Then came two heart-wrenching screams, followed by a very faint sob.
The child behind almost suffocated, and a young woman, the midwife, collapsed to the ground with her legs giving way.
Finally, the baby was born, but the massive bleeding could not be stopped.
Even if they use magic to seal it, it can probably only prolong its life for a short time.
She dared not speak at this critical juncture, fearing she would be buried with the woman before her.
"Feng Jun, did you hear that? It's a boy and a girl, that's wonderful..."
She slowly closed her eyes, tears sliding down her cheeks, and murmured, "If I let go of my heart, I won't suffer anymore."
Su Fengjun's lips trembled as she felt her body heat gradually dissipating.
His fingers touched her face; the warmth and breath were still there…
Finally, there was nothing left. She looked like she was asleep, but soon her whole body turned deathly pale and lost all color.
But why is she like this? Didn't he already switch the medications? Why is she still like this!
The servants in the room dared not utter a sound, fearing they would be blamed.
But he didn't shout or say a word.
He simply waved his hand, signaling them all to leave, as he wanted to talk to Zhongli Yueluo for a while.
