Apocalyptic Disasters: Carrying a bun and hoarding supplies novel Chapter 535

Chapter 535: Still Missing

While Lei Qian’s eyes were fixated on the picture that he had gotten from the nurse, the nurse turned to look at Bai Meiyue. She questioned her in a calm voice, "Are you feeling alright? Is there any discomfort lately?"

"It’s fine; I just feel a bit troubled due to the pain in the tailbone. It’s really difficult to sleep when it feels like I am getting pricked by several needles at the same time," replied Bai Meiyue. She had been sleeping on her left side, but still, she would feel a bit annoyed due to the prickling sensation in the back.

After she finished speaking, Bai Meiyue thought that she was acting really pampered. In her last life, she never got a chance to rest, and she would wade through zombie packs even when her legs were cramping as if they were about to crumble. And now that she was living such a good life, she was getting all whiny just because she felt a little troubled due to the pain in her tailbone.

"Do you feel a bit troubled when you sit down? Like, is it hard to sit for longer hours?"

"I do feel a bit pressure when I sit down... my calves would start cramping as well due to it."

"Ah!?" Lei Qian snapped out of his thoughts. When he heard Bai Meiyue’s response, he stiffened and turned to look at her. He got to his feet and said to her, "Why did you not tell me that your tailbone and calves were hurting? I could have massaged them." As he finished speaking, he reached out to hold her legs, but Bai Meiyue pulled away.

The nurse, on the other hand, started giggling, as she had never seen a couple as sweet and funny as Lei Qian and Bai Meiyue. Men would often complain that their wives or girlfriends were making a fuss over something useless. After all, they were not the only ones who were giving birth to a child, and many other women had done it before them, too, without any facilities. Including their mothers.

Those men were the ones the nurse looked down at the most. What was the point of boasting about the sufferings that their mother went through? Shouldn’t they be thinking of ways to make things comfortable for their wives, instead of hoping that they would go through the same sufferings as their mothers? 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Thus, it was really rare for men as powerful as Lei Qian to bow down and massage the feet and legs of their wives.

"What are you doing? Don’t rub anything. It’s of no use," said Bai Meiyue as she tried to hide her flushed cheeks.

Lei Qian nodded his head like a chicken pecking on rice. Like every man, even he thought that giving birth was just a normal thing. After all, somewhere in the back of his head, he often thought that giving birth was something that every woman did once in her life; thus, he never took it seriously. But after listening to Bai Meiyue say that blood would start to pour out of her like a running tap, he started to become nervous.

He had never seen a woman give birth, and he had no idea how painful the entire process was. But the very fact that it was going to hurt Bai Meiyue so much that she would bleed so much made him really anxious.

And after getting educated by the nurse, he also somewhat understood that his thoughts were not right. Just because something was normal and happened every other day didn’t mean that it wasn’t painful. Women gave birth, but they suffered a lot as well. Men should never ignore the sufferings of their women because they believed that she was not doing anything new. It was wrong, and it might even become a knot in the hearts of their wives.

Especially at times like these.

At that moment, Lei Qian had grave respect for Bai Meiyue and her sacrifice for keeping the child in her belly, when people wouldn’t even take care of their parents and spouses.
