Reborn in the 1970s, remarried to a powerful but childless man, her scumbag husband is furious.

Once the pregnancy reached full term, the doctor said that the baby could start going into labor at any time.

Huo Yanchuan now spends every day with Wenrou. Even when he goes out, he doesn't go too far and always comes back within half an hour.

Although he was temporarily suspended from his job, he was not fired.

Just as Wenrou was about to give birth, Huo Yanchuan's supervisor suddenly came to his door, asking him to return.

He had come to see him before, but Huo Yanchuan had rejected him then.

There's an exercise being conducted by the troops, and Huo Yanchuan is needed to command it.

He had tried everyone else, but none of them worked.

In previous exercises, Huo Yanchuan's team always came in first place without exception.

Just a few days ago, during a simulated exercise, before any actual combat, their performance was already at the bottom.

Without Huo Yanchuan, their operations department would probably have come in last place this time.

This matter has caused several leaders a great deal of trouble.

In the end, having no other choice, they had to ask Huo Yanchuan to return.

Huo Yanchuan has already been punished for violating family planning regulations.

So if we ask him to go back at this time, no one else will have any objections.

However, Huo Yanchuan flatly refused.

"My wife is about to give birth, and she can't be left alone at this time."

The leader tried to persuade Huo Yanchuan for a long time, but he remained unmoved.

In his eyes, his wife is definitely more important than his job.

He had always felt guilty because his negligence had caused Wenrou to give birth prematurely when Yunshu and Yunyao were born.

This time, he insisted that he couldn't leave Wenrou's side for even a moment, and he wouldn't be at ease until he saw the child safely delivered.

It is said that childbirth is like a woman's life hanging by a thread, so he should stay by her side and protect her from any danger.

Huo Yanchuan didn't even let the leader into the room, afraid of disturbing his wife's rest.

The leader looked at him, frowned, and sighed, "Huo Yanchuan, is this how you treat your superior? I'm your boss, after all. You won't even let me sit down, let alone give me a sip of water?"

Just as Huo Yanchuan was about to send them away, Wenrou heard the noise and came out.

Seeing his boss standing at the door, he hurriedly invited him in.

Despite being heavily pregnant, she poured him a cup of tea and said apologetically, "I'm so sorry, Huo Yanchuan has been disrespectful to you. I apologize on his behalf."

Upon hearing the gentle words, the leader waved his hand, "As long as he agrees to go to work, I won't hold it against him."

"You mean Huo Yanchuan can go to work now?" Wenrou asked, looking shocked, upon hearing her boss's words.

She wouldn't even know about this if her boss hadn't come looking for her today.

Huo Yanchuan knew that if Wenrou knew he had resumed his job, she would definitely try to persuade him to go back to work immediately, so he didn't tell Wenrou about it.

I was planning to wait until she gave birth before going back to work, but she bumped into me today.

"I've already told him, but he absolutely refuses, saying he wants to wait until you give birth before going. Xiaorou, please help me persuade him too. This exercise mission can't be without him."

Unable to persuade Huo Yanchuan himself, the leader could only place his hopes on Wenrou.

Wenrou turned and glanced at Huo Yanchuan, then said, "Don't worry, I will."

After seeing the leader off, she looked gently at Huo Yanchuan and asked, "Why didn't you say so earlier? You've been staying at home for so long, it's time to go back to work. I can manage on my own."

"I wasn't there for you when you gave birth to Yun Shu and Yun Yao, so I want to be there for you during this pregnancy to make it up to you." Huo Yanchuan had no choice but to tell the truth when he saw Wenrou.

"You've been with me for so long, go back to work tomorrow. I don't know when I'll start labor yet. If I have stomach pains, I'll call you."

Wenrou didn't want Huo Yanchuan to miss the opportunity to go back to work because of her, and this opportunity wouldn't always be available for him.

If he doesn't go back now and misses this exercise, he might never have another chance to go back.

"I..." Huo Yanchuan was really worried about Wenrou being home alone, and his brows furrowed tightly.

"Don't worry, your aunt is here. If labor starts, just take a taxi to the hospital."

Hearing Wenrou say this, Huo Yanchuan could only agree to go back to work tomorrow.

After seeing Huo Yanchuan off, Wenrou was about to turn around and go inside when she was stopped.

"Young comrade, I just moved here. I live right next door. This is just a small token of my appreciation."

Hearing the voice, Wenrou turned around and saw that the person who came was a simply dressed woman.

Wenrou glanced at the house next door. Wenwen's family lived next door. Several families lived in the house next door, and she could usually hear the noise coming from next door.

Apart from the house where she and Wen Shuzhen lived separately, the other houses were shared by several families.

My aunt's place has also been rented out, and several families have moved in one after another.

She was indeed lonely living alone in such a big house, with no one to talk to.

Wenrou simply let her move in. Anyway, her house was big, and there were several empty rooms. It would be lively for the whole family to live together.

She smiled gently and thanked her, but did not reach out to take her things.

"I appreciate the thought, but you should take the things back."

Upon hearing this, the other person enthusiastically stuffed the things in their hand into Wenrou's hands.

"From now on, we'll all be neighbors. If anything happens, we can help each other out."

Just then, Wen Shuzhen heard the noise and came out of the house.

Seeing that the other party was too enthusiastic, Wenrou asked her aunt to bring some things from her house to give to the other party as a way of returning the favor.

The people living nearby all knew that Wenrou's family was very wealthy, especially the red car parked in front of their house, which always attracted glances from passersby.

When they first moved in, many people from next door came to say hello.

However, because of her gentle and mild-mannered nature, people gradually came to know about her, and fewer and fewer people visited her anymore.

In addition, everyone knows that Wenrou's family is very wealthy, so ordinary people wouldn't come over on their own initiative, lest people think they are deliberately trying to curry favor with Wenrou's family.

"Your belly looks like it's a boy, unlike the one next door, whose belly is round and must be a girl." The man became even more enthusiastic after seeing that Wenrou had accepted her things.

These days, she knows that most wealthy families want a boy, so she assumed that Wenrou was the same.

When Wenrou heard her say that, she thought about it and realized that the only person living next door who was pregnant was Wenwen's mother, Li Caixia, so this person was probably referring to her.

With a gentle expression, she said, "Boys and girls are the same, as long as they are safe and healthy. Our family does not discriminate against girls."

After she finished speaking, she made up an excuse to send the other person away.

Finally, he closed the door, turned around, and went inside.

"Boys and girls are the same. Who doesn't like boys these days?" The man clearly didn't believe Wenrou's words.

When Wenrou first became pregnant, she did want a boy, but her thoughts have changed now.

Now that her due date is getting closer, she is worried about whether her baby will be born safely.

Now, all she cares about is the baby's safety; whether it's a boy or a girl, it doesn't matter to her.

With her due date approaching and the baby still not arriving, Wenrou couldn't help but feel anxious.

Just as she was packing her bags to be admitted to the hospital for childbirth, there was a sudden knock on the door.

Wenrou opened the door and saw Wenwen looking anxious.

"Auntie, my mom is about to give birth, and there's no one home."

It was early morning, and everyone else in the courtyard had gone to work; Huo Yanchuan had just left as well.

Wenwen wasn't familiar with anyone else; the only person she knew was Wenrou, so she had to come to her for help.

The family that moved in a few days ago claimed to be able to tell pregnant women's bellies; they pointed to the mother's belly and said it was a girl.

Originally, the family had been hoping that the mother would give birth to a boy, but now, because of something she said, the family is not as concerned about her as before.

My wife was also there. Seeing how much pain my mother was in, she actually said that my mother could only give birth to daughters, and that it would be best if she died from the pain.

Wenwen was on her way to school, but when she saw her mother in so much pain, she quickly came to find Wenrou.

Wenrou looked around the house; Wen Shuzhen had just gone to buy groceries, and no one was home.

She knew that she couldn't delay in this situation; if she was delayed for too long, it would mean the death of both mother and child.

Although she and Li Caixia weren't close, they would greet each other every time they met.

Even if it's a stranger, she won't just stand by and watch someone get hurt.

Besides, she had also experienced the pain of childbirth, so she knew even better what kind of pain and fear Li Caixia was going through.

"Wenwen, can your mother still walk?" Wenrou asked Wenwen gently.

Wenwen nodded, and then heard Wenrou say again, "Help your mother to the door to get in the car, we're going to the hospital."

Wenwen responded and helped Li Caixia to the door after returning home.

Wenrou took the keys, started the car, and backed it to the door, letting Li Caixia and Wenwen open the doors and get in.

"Auntie, you're pregnant too, so why don't we think of another way?" Wenwen was a little worried when she saw Wenrou was about to drive.

"Stop fussing around, let your mother sit still, we'll go to the hospital now." Wenrou said and started the car.

Although she is indeed not suitable to drive in her current condition, there is no other way now.

Fortunately, she is a very good driver and drove very smoothly the whole way.

After arriving at the hospital, Wenwen helped Li Caixia out.

Seeing Wenrou, Li Caixia said gratefully, "Thank you, sister."

At that time, Wenrou herself was a pregnant woman about to give birth, but she still took the risk to bring her to the hospital. She will always remember this kindness.

"Stop talking, Wenwen, quickly take your mother inside."

Wenwen nodded and helped Li Caixia inside.

Wenrou had just breathed a sigh of relief when a sudden, sharp pain shot through her stomach.

Just then, she felt her water break, and her pants were soaked.

Accompanied by a sharp, intense contraction, Wenrou gritted her teeth and quickly went inside.

She tried to call Huo Yanchuan's workplace using the hospital's phone, but couldn't get through.

At this point, the contractions became increasingly intense, and Wenrou was wheeled into the delivery room by the nurse.

When Huo Yanchuan arrived at the hospital after receiving the news, Wenrou was already inside, screaming in pain.

Soon, the doctor's voice came from inside: "Don't shout, save your energy, you're not fully dilated yet."

Wen Shuzhen was also very anxious at this time. She didn't expect that while she was just buying groceries, Wenrou was already at the hospital about to give birth.

I heard that he drove Li Caixia, who lives next door, to give birth, and then went into labor on his own after arriving at the hospital.

The woman inside was in so much pain she cried, "Didn't they say second births are quick? Why is it taking so long?"

She had been in pain for four or five hours, and the doctor told her that she was still not fully dilated.

"These situations vary from person to person. You should conserve your energy and stop talking now. You can push harder when you give birth," the doctor kindly advised.

Huo Yanchuan was also very anxious while waiting outside, especially when he heard Li Caixia shouting so loudly next door, his heart was in his throat.

Soon, the sound of a baby crying came from inside.

The door to the delivery room was pushed open, and the doctor came out carrying the baby.

Where are Li Caixia's family members?

Upon hearing the sound, Wenwen, who was sitting in the chair, stood up and hurried over.

The doctor handed the baby in his arms to Wenwen, "It's a girl, weighing six and a half pounds."

Wenwen looked at her crumpled little sister in her arms, her face full of worry as she gazed inside. "Doctor, where's my mom?"

"She'll be out in a bit. Where's your dad?" the doctor asked, looking at Wenwen, who was a child.

Wenwen remained silent, a hint of hatred flashing in her eyes.

"Dead." She said coldly.

The doctor was taken aback, but then didn't say anything more, went inside and closed the door to the delivery room.

Soon, Li Caixia was wheeled out and admitted to a ward.

At this moment, Wenrou was finally fully dilated, and the pain of childbirth came in waves. She gritted her teeth and couldn't help but cry out again in pain.

Hearing the shouts from outside the door, Huo Yanchuan's heart clenched.

At this moment, Tan Lin and Wen Jinian rushed over after hearing the news. When they heard Wenrou's painful screams in the delivery room, their faces were full of worry.

After an hour of effort, the sound of a baby crying finally came from the delivery room.

"She gave birth! She gave birth! She finally gave birth!" Tan Lin exclaimed excitedly.

Huo Yanchuan and Wen Jinian both looked towards the door of the delivery room. Soon, the doctor came out carrying the baby.

"Warm family member, your wife gave birth to a boy, weighing 7 pounds and 2 ounces."

Huo Yanchuan held the baby, his gaze fixed on the delivery room, where Wenrou was then wheeled out.

He handed the child over to Tan Lin and Wen Jinian to take care of, then hurriedly stepped forward, took Wenrou's hand, and kissed her forehead with a look of tenderness.

"Honey, you've worked so hard."
