Chapter 10 - Gave Birth To A Mer

Yu Dong was shocked, but Ye Li, who had been prepared for this ever since last night, immediately jumped up and rushed to boil the water for Chen M. The growing shouts could no longer be suppressed. Chen M, as he felt twice as much pain as the women who gave birth to a child. He shouted and screamed so loudly that the entire neighbourhood came to know that Chen Mi was giving birth . Shen Li and Ye Liu had assisted in the childbirth process of other mers, so they knew what to do, but Yu Don,g whhadas done nothing else but fight with zombies ever since she grew u,p had ..Ideaidea what to do,s he could only stand outside and pace in front of the door she wanted to go inside with Ye Liu but the latter told her that as the master of the house she can not enter the labour room as it might bring bad luck to her Yu dong didn't believe in such superstition but Ye Liu wasn't convinced and closed the door on her face forbidding her from comeing inside so Yu Dong could only pace in the corridor sending her spiritual energy to Chen Mi every once in a while. Yu Dong could only do this much and wait anxiously out side yu dong was anxious but so were Shen Li and Ye Liu they have helped in child birth of a lot of mers but Chen Mi was like their little brother seeing him in pain Shen Li and Ye Liu were as anxious as ants on hot pan. Bring some hot water and keep wiping his head, "said Shen Li as he told Chen Mi when to push and when to stop. Don't give up, no,w Chen, Mi didn't you say - you want to see your son grow up ?" Shen Li could feel that Chen Mi was tired, red, even though Yu Dong brought a lot of good things for him today, it didn't change the fact that Chen had been eating nothing but boiled cabbage soup for the past few months. A single day of good food won't change his condition.HearingShen Li encouraging Chen Mi to keep pushing, Ye Liu was also scared. He could see how pale Chen Mi had gone. Ye Liu wanted to helb, butt he had no idea how to help Chen Mi o n the other hand,w he as panting as he felt his body being torn in half. Hee wished he was strong enough to push the child out of him, butt he was just too weak. Chen Mi felt frustrated; there were so many mers who lived a life worse than his, yet they successfully gave birth. Why was it that he alone couldn't push the child? Why was he so we? " Chen Mi push !" Said Shen Li as he pushed his belly trying to aid in ChenMi's labour, ChenMi heard him and he groaned, pushing with all his might - he could feel his consciousness drifting he k, he knew he was going to die, he knew this was it. He was so scared to die, but he couldn't do anything now, could he? H didn't want to give up, he anted to keep pushing but his body was losing its consciousness, and ust when Chen Mi thought that this was it - a warm yet subtle current spread all over his body, he cold feel that his body was regaining its energy and he once again started pushing. "That's the spirit, keep on pushing, Mi." Ye Liu shouted as he wiped Chen Mi's forehead. The latter gasped but pushed on, the warm currents travelling all over his body and calming his nerves; he was no longer in pain. e knew he could push it, he knew it he c, he could feel it - if this felt like dying, then it wasn't so bad - after a great heart-wrenching scream Chen Mi flopped down while Shen Li cradled the baby in his arms. He smiled at the little ball of sunshine that was crying loudly and took the clean, warm cloth from Ye Liu to wipe the child, but just as he finished cleaning the blood off the young baby boy, he paused. His complexion paled, he looked at the child that was crying his lungs out, and felt a terror like no other rise in his heart. Ye Liu saw Shen Li's expression and hurried over to look at the child and, to his horror, a bright red crimson lotus was blooming at the centre of the child's forehead - the baby boy turned out to be a mer! u Dong who, heard the cry of the baby, culdn't wait any longer - she rushed inside igno, ring the fishy smell of blood and, looked at Shen Li and Ye Liu wh,o were looking at the child with fear ,; ey didn't look happy or upset, istead scar, ed? Y.ong felt a chill rising in her heart when What happened to the baby ?" Was her spiritual energy too much? Was the child malnourished? Was it missing something? She couldn't help but ask for two. Chen Mi, too, was looking at Shen L's disappointed and terrified face, and he flopped back on the bed - he was done for, he knew how much Yu Dong was anticipating the birth of a son, bually gave birth to a me. Chen Mi couldn't help but sob, not because he was afraid of Yu Don's anger that would be directed at him, but the poor life his child would live from now on. Not only will he not get the love of his mother, but he will be scorned everywhere he goes! How pitiful, how unlucky! If only his child were Yu Dong was now totally spooked, then Mi was crying, and Shen Li and Ye Liu looked so terrified that they weren't even saying anything.YuIfong wasn't afraid to hurt the child; she would have snatched it from her arm. What's wrong? Will anyone say something ?" Shen Li hesitated; he knew that there was no hiding the fac, they could hide it tonight bu butt what about tomorrow?S o he gritted his teeth and bit the bullet ",h e child is a mer "
