Doctor Lin, however, did not immediately go in, but looked towards Han Yu. Although Doctor Lin was old, he still paid attention to the propriety between men and women. It would not be good if this caused Han Yu to hold a grudge in his heart.

Seeing that Doctor Lin had not yet gone in, and was instead looking at him, Han Yu became anxious, “Doctor Lin, hurry, my wife is waiting for you to save her life, what are you dawdling for!”

Having been driven out by several women earlier, Han Yu could no longer care so much when Su Wenyue was in danger. He followed Doctor Lin into the room and saw his wife lying pale and weak on the bed, his heart splitting with pain, yet he could only bear it. As Doctor Lin inserted the silver needles, Su Wenyue finally regained consciousness with a groan.

Doctor Lin had anticipated Su Wenyue’s condition: “Madam has exhausted too much strength, which is why she fainted. Go and fetch the ginseng soup for Madam to drink.”

After exhausting her strength, Su Wenyue drank the ginseng soup and felt somewhat revitalized. The pain in her body continued unabated, and she had no idea when it would stop. The midwife’s voice came through, “Madam, push hard, the child is about to come out. If you continue to hold back, I’m afraid it will not be good.”

“Lady Yue, be strong. Didn’t you say you must birth the child safely? Listen to the midwife,” Han Yu took Su Wenyue’s hand. Although it pained him, it was not the time to indulge Su Wenyue’s weakness. He cheered her on from the side.

Su Wenyue nodded feebly, following the midwife’s instructions. She didn’t know how much time had passed when she finally heard the midwife say, “I can see the child’s head, but it’s still stuck inside. Madam, push harder, otherwise, the child could be harmed.”

Su Wenyue, already drained of strength, exerted all her remaining force downward upon hearing the midwife’s words, feeling something slip out from below.

“Congratulations, Madam, it’s a young master,” the midwife said as she took the child away. Another birth attendant, however, remained vigilant—there was still another child inside. She continued to instruct Su Wenyue to push, and soon, another loud cry was heard. The midwife finally breathed a sigh of relief; they had both been born.

“It’s another young master, handsome and well-formed. Congratulations, Madam, it’s truly a great fortune,” the midwife said with a smile, announcing the good news to Han Yu and Su Wenyue.

Han Yu had been with Su Wenyue from start to finish and had no mind to look at the children yet, only focusing on Su Wenyue’s condition. Seeing Su Wenyue exhausted as if devoid of strength after giving birth, he tenderly wiped the sweat from her forehead, but inwardly, he was relieved. Thankfully, everything had gone smoothly, and the children had been born. No matter the hardship, they had come through safely.

But Su Wenyue did not smile; she felt as though there was still something inside her stomach. When she mentioned it, the midwife’s expression changed dramatically; “Quick, there’s still another one inside Madam.”

“Another one?” Another birth attendant was taken aback, immediately securing the children before coming over to help.

At that moment, Su Wenyue’s stomach pain returned. The third child was not as easily born; even after more than half an hour, the birth was not yet complete.

“Madam’s fetus is malpositioned; the child inside is feet down,” the midwife said. With these words, everyone’s expression changed, knowing what that meant. Now, the decision-maker was Han Yu.

“Master, Madam’s condition is not good. With the child’s feet down, it is a difficult birth. Master, do you choose to save the adult or the child?” the midwife sought Han Yu’s opinion with a tremble, feeling cold all over under Han Yu’s icy gaze, knowing there was no easy way out.

“Master, we cannot delay in Madam’s condition; a decision must be quickly made, or both Madam and child could be in danger.”

“Save the adult,” Han Yu said without a moment’s hesitation. It was a decision he had made long ago. Even if two children hadn’t already been born, he would have chosen to save the adult first.

With Han Yu’s command, the midwife had a plan of action.

Su Wenyue, already drained of strength, panicked upon hearing Han Yu’s decision to save the adult, “No, I have to save the child; we must save the child.” After saying this, the midwife looked to Han Yu uncertainly, not knowing whose order to follow.

Seeing the midwife like this, Su Wenyue, summoning energy from nowhere, grabbed Han Yu’s hand, “Husband, that is our child. I’ve carried her for eight months, watching her grow bit by bit in my stomach; I can’t just abandon her like this. I must save this child.”

With a plea in her voice, Han Yu did not waver, firmly insisting that the midwife ensure Su Wenyue’s safety. As for the child, if it couldn’t be saved, then it must be sacrificed.

If this were any other matter, Han Yu’s firm stand would mean Su Wenyue would give up, but this was her own child. Recalling an old method she had heard about, an experienced old woman knew a massage technique that could correct the position of the fetus.

Desperate, Su Wenyue shared the method, knowing that the experienced midwives her mother had found for her should have this craftsmanship.

Indeed, Su Wenyue was not mistaken; both midwives knew the technique. However, it was risky, and the pregnant woman would suffer immense pain. They did not believe that the coddled miss of the Su Mansion will be able to bear such suffering. If anything goes wrong, not only might the child be lost, but the adult could also be endangered, which is why they did not initially suggest this method.

After Su Wenyue mentioned this method, the midwives were surprised she knew of it. Doctor Lin knew as well, but he shared the midwives’ opinion that Su Wenyue could not withstand such agony. Doctor Lin, more familiar with Su Wenyue than the midwives, likewise felt the method was unfeasible.

“Doctor Lin, is the technique feasible?” Han Yu asked after hearing Su Wenyue mention a method, feeling somewhat relieved since it involved their own child. If there were a way to save the child without endangering the adult, he was naturally willing to try it, but he needed the reassurance of the doctor and midwives.

“Well, there is such a technique, but it requires enduring immense pain. I fear the Madam might not withstand it, and it could worsen the situation,” Doctor Lin said cautiously, and the midwives nodded in agreement.

Seeing Han Yu’s expression change upon hearing the doctor’s words, Su Wenyue became anxious, afraid that Han Yu would still refuse.

“Husband, I can endure. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have suggested this method. You have to believe me. Since there is a way to save our child, we have to try it, no matter what, or else I will never be at peace in this lifetime.”

Han Yu was indeed hesitant. He was afraid his wife would be in danger, yet she seemed very determined. If he did not agree, his wife would not overcome this obstacle in her heart. Moreover, what they would be forsaking was not an object, but a child.
