Chapter 1340 - Useless Man
Inside the delivery room, Lu Zihao thought that he was ready for this day. But now that it finally arrived, he couldn't stop the feelings of panic and worry from messing up his logical mind.
He could watch people die right in front of him with cold eyes and without feeling any ripples in his heart, and yet just watching his wife whimpering in pain was enough to make his heart tremble. His expression was so dark and ugly that the doctor and the medical team were already trembling.
The doctor could still take it because she was the one who interacted with the couple the most during Long Jinjing's regular prenatal medical check-ups. The other members of the medical team, however, didn't have enough time to build the barest immunity against Lu Zihao's frightening aura.
In-between the increasingly painful contractions, Long Jinjing noticed the tense atmosphere between her husband and the medical staff. She patted Lu Zihao's big, scarred hand.
"Ni—Zihao, d-don't scare the doctor and her team, okay?" she whispered.
Lu Zihao's scowl worsened as he turned to the medical staff. "Am I scaring you?"
The doctor was still okay but the others jumped at his question.
Wuwuwu. He looked so scary! Mama, they didn't want to stay in the same room as this scary man anymore. Wuwuwu!
Despite feeling like this deep inside, they still shook their heads and maintained their professionalism. There was no way that they would quit this job. Although the doctor was the only permanent staff of the hospital wing and the rest of them were only hired part-time when needed, the pay they received here was something that they couldn't possibly earn at their regular clinic and hospital jobs even after promotions.
Seeing the medical staff's obvious fright, Long Jinjing felt sorry for them. She continued persuading her husband but he continued acting scary. At this rate, the medical staff might faint from fright even before helping her give birth to her babies.
The next sudden painful contraction made her cry out in pain.
"What the fuck are you all doing?!" Lu Zihao roared. "Look at my wife! She's in so much pain! Fucking do something!"
The doctor already had enough of him. Even though she was extremely afraid of Lu Zihao, she still couldn't allow the man to continue yelling at her and her team. In addition, he wasn't their official employer. Jin Liwei and Iris Long were their official employers in the contract they all signed. When it came to situations like this, the doctor knew her rights. She and her team only needed to answer to her official employers.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Lu," the doctor said in a firm albeit shaky voice. "But if you continue threatening me and my team, I will have to ask you to leave the delivery room."
"What the fuck did you say?!"
The doctor did her best to stand her ground. "All of us here are qualified medical professionals, hence why Sir Jin and the Young Madam chose to hire us. Remember that we helped Young Madam give birth not too long ago and she has since recovered splendidly. The two little masters were also born without any serious issues. In short, we know what we are doing.
"We understand that Mr. Lu is only acting this way because of your concern for Mrs. Lu but continuously intimidating the medical staff who are just trying to help your wife give birth is not only disruptive but also dangerous. Mr. Lu, you are only adding stress on your wife. All of us should be working hard to reduce stress on Mrs. Lu as much as possible but you are doing the exact opposite. And if kicking you out of the delivery room can give her less stress, then that's what I'll do as the doctor.
"I'm sorry to say this, Mr. Lu. But as the doctor, I have the power to kick out disruptive individuals out of the patient's room even if the individual is the patient's husband."
Lu Zihao's expression was too scary to even describe. The medical staff were too afraid to even look at his shadow.
"Like hell I'll allow you to kick me out and leave my wife alone while she delivers my children," he growled. He glanced at his wife and said, "Tell them that you want me to stay by your side."
Long Jinjing was too preoccupied in enduring the increasingly powerful labour pains. She didn't want to worry about his husband's temperamental mood. After hearing what the doctor said, she agreed with everything.
She was already suffering like this and yet all he could do was to argue with the people helping her to give birth? What if the doctor and her team quit midway? Then wouldn't she have to give birth by herself without medical supervision?
Fine, her husband was an overbearing person but this wasn't the time for him to act like his usual self! What benefit would he receive by acting like a jackass? Nothing! In fact, she would also be implicated as his wife.
Long Jinjing wanted to scold him but she didn't want to waste her precious energy on him. Giving birth to her babies was far more important than dealing with him right now, so she chose to ignore him instead.
If the doctor kicked him out, so be it. The doctor was right, anyway. Long Jinjing didn't need the extra stress. [Read official chapters on W e b n o v e l (dot) com. Please stop supporting piracy. Also follow author on Instagram: @arriacross]
Unfortunately, Lu Zihao couldn't read her mind. He thought that she would always be on his side.
"Jinjing, hurry and tell the doctor that you want me to stay by your side and that she can't kick me out!"
Long Jinjing finally snapped. Her eyes flashed with anger.
"Niko—Lu Zihao, you motherfucker! Your babies are about to tear my fucking vagina apart and yet you expect ME to care about your trivial matter?! How about you experience trying to push out two new human beings out of your own tiny hole? Let's see if you can still act like a maddening jackass! I need my husband's comfort! If you can't give it to me, then get the fuck out, you useless man!
"I, Long Jinjing, can give birth by myself! I don't need your fucking assholery to add to my stress! Aaaaah! Fuck you, Lu Zihao! It hurts so much!"
