Chapter 873: Going Into Early Labor

"Is that what she said?" Bai Meiyue set down the cup of tea in her hand onto the table and raised a brow. She had, in fact, expected Yang Wei to make a move, but she never once thought that the woman would make such a foolish move. Not only did she go looking for her mother, but she also left a threat when her mother did not agree with Yang Wei’s request.

"Yes." Xiao Wu was quite upset. When he heard that Yang Wei had gone looking for Aunt Yan, he hurried to the greenhouse where Yan Wanning was working, and that was when he heard all about Yang Wei and Aunt Yan’s conversation. Honestly, he was quite furious when he thought about how that woman acted in front of Aunt Yan and what infuriated him even more was how the Bai family actually expected Aunt Yan to take care of their family even though they had done nothing for her.

Who did they think they were? Just because they shared the same blood as Aunt Yan, was their safe base supposed to take care of them?

Shameless!

Bai Meiyue had the same thoughts as Xiao Wu. She did expect that the Bai family would make some splashes, but she never thought that Old Madam Bai would make a demand outright, and that too such a big one. What was she even thinking when she asked for a hundred kilograms of meat, seafood and two hundred solar panels? Did she think that their safe base was a supermarket where she could just march straight up and then demand to buy this and that?

What was more, Bai Meiyue very much doubted that Yang Wei had any intention of paying even a single crystal nucleus. That woman’s attitude was quite clear. She was there to demand those things from her mother; as for whether she was going to pay or not, Bai Meiyue knew that it was never going to happen.

If Yang Wei had even the slightest bit of intention to pay for the supplies, then Bai Meiyue knew that the woman would have already hurled boxes of crystal nuclei at her mother.

Bai Meiyue pursed her lips. "Keep an eye on Yang Wei; I don’t think that she will stop just right here."

Bai Meiyue knew the temper of the woman too well. Since she didn’t get what she wanted, she would trouble her mother once more, and Bai Meiyue did not want that. The Bai family had not raised her mother, but they were quite quick to make a connection with her mother because they wanted to take advantage of her.

"Don’t worry, boss. I will keep an eye on that woman twenty-four seven now." Xiao Wu agreed at once.

Since that woman was determined to cause trouble, then he might as well teach her a good lesson. Who knows what Yang Wei might do if she were allowed to run amok!?

He then looked at Bai Meiyue, who was rubbing her stomach that kept getting tighter and tighter and worriedly said, "Boss, you should stop worrying about unnecessary people for the time being. I heard from Doctor Shen that your delivery date is getting closer. You should pay attention to yourself and your child first."

He heard from Shen Zhen that Bai Meiyue was going to go into labour at any moment now. It was imminent. The disinfection of various medical instruments had already started, and the emergency medicines were also taken out from the warehouse. Seeing that Bai Meiyue’s contractions were getting more and more frequent, even if they were irregular, the fact that the contractions were getting more frequent proved that the child was on his way.

Now, Shen Zhen had started to hound Bai Meiyue and kept asking about the child’s movement. Regardless of whether the child was moving frequently or infrequently, she wanted to know about everything. If not for the fact that the contractions were not frequent, Shen Zhen would have admitted Bai Meiyue to the clinic.

Lu Yu did not want Shen Zhen to stand for long hours, but Shen Zhen was unwilling to hand over Bai Meiyue’s case to anyone else.

Shen Zhen also ignored the warnings that Lu Yu gave to her and went ahead with her plans. She knew that with her current situation, she shouldn’t run around, but as Bai Meiyue’s doctor, she just could not turn a blind eye to Bai Meiyue’s condition either. The woman was about to give birth on any day; as her attending doctor, she could not turn her back on Bai Meiyue.

Shen Zhen had told everyone that they should avoid going to Bai Meiyue for anything until she gave birth to her child. If not for the fact that Xiao Wu was worried about Yang Wei causing trouble for Aunt Yan, he wouldn’t have come looking for Bai Meiyue.

"I know." Bai Meiyue knew that her due date was getting closer, and she needed to control her emotions and keep her mood stable. However, even though she wanted to stay calm, she could not help but get a little angry. These days she could not even sleep properly because of her joints coming loose. Her sides had started to ache, and she couldn’t stay in the same position for long. She was already feeling very uncomfortable, and occasionally she would feel cramps rising in the middle of the night.

At this time, she very much hoped that Lei Qian, the piece of coal beside her, would be able to evolve as soon as possible. Although Lei Qian might not be of any help when he woke up, it would be good enough if he was beside her when she was bringing their son to the world. After all, who cared about whether this man could do anything for her or not?

What was more, these days she could not even sleep at night, causing a bad headache to rise every morning! The pain was like someone was sawing her head off in half with a chainsaw.
