Chapter 769: Feeling Guilty

Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Fortunately, the traffic lights were green all the way to the hospital, so they didn’t take long to arrive at the hospital.

As Gu Shaoting had called ahead, a doctor and a nurse attended to Shu Pan the minute they arrived at the hospital.

While the doctor was examining Shu Pan, Gu Shaoting paced back and forth outside the emergency room. He couldn’t imagine the consequences if something bad happened.

Song Can’s held on tightly to the straps of her bag. She bit her lip and stole a glance at Gu Shaoting before she said timidly, “Shaoting, I didn’t do it on purpose. I accidentally spilled some water on the floor. Who’d expect her to slip on it?”

Song Can also blamed herself. Why didn’t she ask Auntie Li to dry the floor or caution Shu Pan?

A slip wouldn’t be too much of a problem if Shu Pan wasn’t pregnant. But she was. The consequences could be dire when a pregnant woman fell.

Song Can was also praying in her heart that Shu Pan and the baby were alright. Otherwise, she would feel guilty for the rest of her life.

Gu Shaoting anxiously checked the door to the emergency room from time to time, looking very worried.

“Mom, let’s not talk about this now. We’ll talk when Panpan is safe.” Gu Shaoting was in no mood to listen to his mother.

Song Can nodded awkwardly.

Time ticked by slowly.

Finally, the doctor came out. Gu Shaoting immediately rushed up to him and asked, “Doctor, how is my wife?”

“It’s a threatened miscarriage. Fortunately, you sent her here in time. Both mother and baby are fine for now. I’m admitting her for two days so we can observe her.” The doctor looked at them and then continued, “You’re too careless. She’s already in her third trimester. You must be more careful. She might not be so lucky next time.”

“Thank you. We’ll be more careful in the future.” Gu Shaoting said gratefully as he heaved a sigh of relief.

Song Can also secretly thanked the heavens when she heard the doctor’s words.

Shortly after, Shu Pan was wheeled out of the emergency room. Gu Shaoting approached her gurney nervously and asked, “Panpan, how do you feel?”

Shu Pan slowly opened her eyes and looked at him. She shook her head and said softly, “I’m okay. Don’t worry.”

She was probably tired because she quickly closed her eyes again.

Song Can looked at Shu Pan and could not help but feel guilty. This was the first time she felt that way.

Shu Pan’s face was pale and her hair was slightly messy. She looked very weak but peaceful with her eyes closed.

Thank goodness Shu Pan was fine, or she’d feel guilty for the rest of her life.

Gu Shaoting helped to push Shu Pan’s gurney to a single ward, and Song Can followed closely behind.

Seeing that Shu Pan was still asleep, Song Can said, “Shaoting, stay here with her. I’ll go back and ask Auntie Li to make some porridge and soup. I’ll bring them over for her later.”

At this moment, Song Can wanted to do something to make up for her mistake.

Although she wasn’t the one who caused Shu Pan to fall, she caused the accident indirectly.

Gu Shaoting thought for a moment and said, “Alright. Please also pack some daily necessities for Shu Pan.”

He was still worried. It was better for Shu Pan to remain in the hospital for two more days.

“Will do.” Song Can nodded, closed the door, and left.

Gu Shaoting sat at Shu Pan’s bedside. He picked up her hand and snuggled it against his face. Her hand felt warm against his face and it finally calmed his nerves.

Not long after, Shu Pan opened her sleepy eyes and saw Gu Shaoting sitting at her bedside. She couldn’t remember what happened.

“Do you still have abdominal pain?” Gu Shaoting asked quickly when he saw her frown and thought that she was in pain again.

Shu Pan held his hand and said softly, “I’m fine.”

Her slightly hoarse voice made his heart ache.

Gu Shaoting reached out to brush Shu Pan’s hair off her sweaty forehead.
