Chapter 205 - Snow White

Downstairs in the dining room, the Song Family members were indeed having their dinner.

When she saw them coming down, Grandma Song said with a smile, “What were you busy with in your room? You didn’t even hear the servant calling you.”

Changqing’s face was hot. “Perhaps Chuchu was helping me blow dry my hair when the servant called us.”

“Yo, Chuchu even helps Changqing blow dry her hair?” Dai Ai sounded shocked and was a little envious.

Grandma Song nodded with satisfaction. “This little couple is living such a blissful life. Huaisheng, looks like this marriage that you initiated back then wasn’t wrong at all.”

Song Huaisheng laughed and was quite shocked as well.

Actually, he introduced the two to each other with an attitude of just trying out his luck. Never did he expect the two to get married so quickly and there weren’t any conflicts between the pair either. The two hadn’t been married for long, but they were getting along better and better. Previously, he even thought Song Chuyi would live within the shadows of Song Yunyang forever. “Perhaps certain things are really destined.”

Song Chuyi sat in his seat with an apathetic face, as though he wasn’t the person being discussed.

The servant brought the rice out. Changqing looked at the people at the table. There was Dai Ai, Song Huaisheng, Grandma Song and Song Chulang. She thought for a while and asked, “Where’s Yunyang? Why isn’t she around?”

Song Chulang’s face sank slightly and he said lightly, “Working.”

“Oh.” Changqing initially wanted to ask what Yunyang was doing, but she didn’t want to have any further interactions with Song Chulang, so she kept quiet.

She lowered her head and saw the bowl full of rice. She took her chopsticks and swept half the bowl of rice into Song Chuchu’s rice bowl.

“You can’t even finish this bit?” Song Chuyi frowned. “Dieting again?”

“No. When we were filming for the program today, we had lots of delicious food.” When she said the last two words, her eyes sparkled, looking as pure as a child.

A trace of gentleness seeped through Song Chuyi’s deep gaze.

Song Chulang’s eyes sank slightly as he continued to eat.

Song Huaisheng asked, “How’s it going with settling your brother’s incident?”

Song Chulang said lightly, “Dr. Yan has worked at Bo Han for more than a decade and is very experienced, so he can’t be sacked just like that. We must find a suitable opportunity and use a legitimate excuse to fire him. I’m already in the midst of arranging it.”

“Mm.” Song Huaisheng nodded. “Dr. Yan’s skills aren’t bad and he also went to Switzerland to further his studies a few years ago and he’s also a primary physician. It would indeed be a pity to fire him. However, he didn’t have to do something like that this time. The Hospital Director also had intentions of grooming him, but he was too anxious. We cannot just let this matter pass. Otherwise, people would think that the people in the Song Family can easily be bullied. However, since such a talent cannot belong to us, we can’t let the other competitive hospitals get this advantage.”

“I understand,” Song Chulang replied.

The Father and Son sounded as though they were chatting casually.

Changqing suddenly came back to her senses while she was eating and felt an inexplicable sense of apprehension.

What Song Huaisheng meant was to destroy this Dr. Yan, right?

As long as a person’s medical certificate was tainted, the other hospitals would never dare to recruit him.

She suddenly felt a sense of chill rising from her heart.

Perhaps Song Huaisheng was too kind to her previously. She almost forgot that Song Huaisheng used to be a businessman who was way more ruthless than Song Chulang.

“Changqing, why aren’t you eating the side dishes at all?” Dai Ai smiled and reminded her.

Everyone’s gaze landed on her face and she let out an awkward “oh” as she quickly took some side dishes.

After dinner, they rested for a while and Song Huaisheng called both sons to the back to play tennis in high spirits. He asked Changqing if she wanted to play, but Changqing turned him down tactfully.

Previously, she had a go with Song Chuyi in the bedroom and her legs were already limp and sore now.

After the three men left, Changqing chatted with Grandma Song and Dai Ai. Somehow, as they chatted, they ended up talking about playing cards.

Grandma Song also thought it wasn’t a bad idea to play cards and got a servant to retrieve the cards.

Changqing went upstairs to get her purse. Just as she came out, she happened to run into Dai Ai, who was coming down from the third floor. Her tummy was also quite big at this moment. Changqing was afraid that it would be inconvenient for her to walk and wanted to give her a hand.

“I’m fine.” Dai Ai smiled, “I have no problem climbing a few more levels right now. In the past, when I saw pregnant ladies walking, they looked like they were having a hard time. Now that it’s my turn, it really seems to be the case.”

“It’s still better to be careful.” Changqing saw the purse in her hand and figured she probably also went up to get some money. “Why didn’t you get the servants to help you retrieve it?”

“I didn’t know where they went just now. Maybe they’re busy—we just had dinner. Maybe they had to clean up.” Dai Ai chuckled. “It’s not a big deal either. I have to move too. Now that I’ve been sitting the entire day, I feel uncomfortable at this part of my waist. Let me tell you—you’d better make some pre-pregnancy preparations before you’re pregnant. You’d better get your body in good condition. I wasn’t prepared beforehand…”

Changqing was reminded of the little tadpole Song Chuchu gave her in the afternoon and listened attentively.

As they were walking halfway down the stairs, she suddenly felt her slipper slipping on the step. Her body fell down quickly and her hand still happened to be around Dai Ai’s arm. Everything happened too quickly. She heard a shriek from Dai Ai as well and her mind went blank for a while. Afterwards, her head hit the steps hard and she rolled down without being able to stop herself.

As her body came to a stop, her head hurt and for a moment, all was dark. She felt something heavy pressing on her body.

The room echoed with screams.

She tried to look up with all her strength as she endured the severe pain and saw Dai Ai pressing on top of her. There was a large area of blood on her tummy and suddenly, Changqing could feel her thighs wet and sticky with blood.

“Oh my god, quick, someone.” Grandma Song almost passed out. “Quick, call the ambulance, the ambulance, call, call Second Young Master.”

“Pain… pain…” Dai Ai whimpered softly semi-consciously.

Changqing saw the bloody scene on her and could no longer feel the pain on her body anymore. A sudden chilling fear surged from all directions.

She didn’t know whether to move or not.

She didn’t know what to do.

Her face was pale from anxiousness.

“What are you spacing out for? Roll her over quickly; don’t press on the child.” Grandma Song shouted anxiously.

Changqing was about to climb up when suddenly, a rushed voice came from outside. “Don’t move.”

“Yunyang, Yunyang, you’re here. Quick, take a look. What should we do?” Grandma Song grabbed onto Song Yunyang, who appeared like a savior. “You have to save the child.”

“Grandma, don’t be anxious.” Song Yunyang quickly lowered her head to check on Dai Ai. Her brows were tightly knitted. “The pregnant woman has excessive bleeding. It would be too late to send her to the hospital. The only way forward now is to go into labor?”

“Labor?” Grandma Song’s body shook. ‘She’s only six months pregnant; how can she go into labor?”

“There’s no choice. If she doesn’t go into labor, the child’s breathing and heartbeat would stop immediately in the mother’s womb. We still have a ray of hope if she gives birth now and we move the child into an incubator.” Song Yunyang lifted her head immediately and told the servants at the side: “Come quickly to help me move the patient. Grandma, get me a clean towel and a basin of hot water quickly.”

Changqing was so nervous that she almost couldn’t breathe. There was a lot of blood flowing from her head, almost reaching her eyes. Her arms, knees and everything else hurt. However, she didn’t dare to call out in pain right now and could only watch as Song Yunyang, who suddenly appeared, gave directions and hope that Song Chuyi came over quickly.

“What happened?” In just a while, Song Huaisheng’s loud voice could be heard from outside.

Chulang turned her head over and saw Song Chuyi, Song Chulang and Song Huaisheng coming in quickly.

Song Huaisheng flew with rage as his face remained calm. He rushed over to Dai Ai, who was just lifted off her.

Song Chuyi looked at the bloody Dai Ai then at Changqing, who was on the floor with blood flowing from her forehead, going over quickly to help her up.

“Chuchu…” Changqing cried out in his embrace fearfully.

She was really about to die of fright.

What scared her the most was that when she fell, she accidentally hooked onto Dai Ai, making her fall too.

Song Chuyi lowered his head to look at her trembling fearfully in his embrace and his heart sank subconsciously.

Song Chulang looked over with a frown. “Chuyi, aren’t you coming over to help Yunyang? A life is at stake now. If things don’t go right, it’d be two lives lost. Yunyang said the child must be born. How big is the child now? How’s it going to be born? See if there’s another way out. It will take the ambulance a while to get over.”

Upon hearing that, Song Huaisheng turned over and shouted. “Aren’t you coming over to help? One more person would mean a better chance of survival. You all practice medicine, so you have to make sure you save the child.”

It was the first time Changqing saw Song Huaisheng speaking in such a gloomy tone. She trembled from fear and couldn’t even worry about her own pain and injuries, pushing him quickly. “Go over quickly; don’t worry about me.”

Song Chuyi could only put her down quickly on the couch and move over to Song Yunyang. He took a look and knew right away that it would be too late if Dai Ai didn’t go into labor.

“You deliver the baby. I’ll wake Dai Ai up.” Song Chuyi exchanged glances with Song Yunyang quickly.

Dai Ai was woken up by Song Chuyi from unconsciousness.

By the time the ambulance rushed over, the living room was echoing with the cries of the pregnant lady and Song Yunyang’s urging.

This endless period went on until finally, a bloody infant was brought out. That infant was only as big as a newborn kitten, putting one in disbelief that a child could be this small.

The hospital soon took Dai Ai and the child away from the Song Household. Song Yunyang and Song Huaisheng followed along in the ambulance.

Song Chuyi wiped the cold sweat off his forehead with his arm and it was only when he turned around to look at Changqing that he realized she was left behind by the ambulance.

He felt a sense of remorse and pulled out some bandages and medicine at home to wrap her head up.

Changqing could smell the blood on him and she shivered from nervousness. “That… that child, will it survive?”

“… I don’t know,” Song Chuyi said helplessly as he looked at her.

Song Chulang turned around to ask the servants in the house gloomily. “What on earth happened?”

A servant who was in charge of sweeping the floor said while trembling with fear, “I… I just came back from outside after watering the plants and happened to see Miss Yan pulling Madam along as they fell from upstairs.”

Changqing’s heart tightened and all of a sudden, she could feel Grandma Song’s angry gaze at her. “Is this true?”

“I… did not.” Changqing pulled Song Chuyi’s hands urgently. “I did slip when I was coming downstairs. I don’t know how she fell as well.”
