Mr. Mu said it should be fine, but before Mo Xiao could respond, Lin Jiuqing said, "No."

Everyone looked at Lin Jiuqing in unison.

Lin Jiuqing's face looked a little bad at the moment. She was tortured by the increasingly frequent contractions. However, she was very sober now and did not feel that it was too difficult. She could still endure the pain.

Lin Jiuqing looked at Mo Xiao and shook his head: "No need, I can do it."

Mo Xiao pursed his lips. He always obeyed Lin Jiuqing, but this time he did not listen to Lin Jiuqing. Instead, he said to Mr. Mu, "Go and boil the medicine."

As soon as Mr. Mu saw Mo Xiao's face, he knew there was no room for maneuver. He said nothing and went out to boil the medicine. Doctor Chen was stunned for a moment, but when he saw Mr. Mu leave, he hurriedly chased after him.

Lin Jiuqing looked at Mo Xiao silently. Although she said nothing, her eyes expressed her meaning vividly.

Mo Xiao took a deep breath, raised his hand to cover Lin Jiuqing's eyes, and said softly: "I know you are afraid of affecting the child... But you are more important than the child."

"No matter what time, you are the most important. I must ensure your safety first."

After Mo Xiao finished speaking, he was silent for a while, and then he said with difficulty: "Don't blame me."

Lin Jiuqing was silent for a long time before he raised his hands to hug Mo Xiao and sighed, "How could I blame you? I know that everything you did was for my sake."

It is such a precious thing that a man, an emperor, would choose to protect her as an adult instead of protecting the child first when his offspring is extremely small.

Lin Jiuqing leaned against Mo Xiao and said softly, "I'll do whatever you say."

Mo Xiao is also the most important person to her in this world, and she can't let him be so disappointed.

Amid the increasingly frequent contractions, Mr. Mu finally prepared the medicine and brought it over.

Mo Xiao took it immediately, turned around and tasted it himself first, then fed it to Lin Jiuqing's mouth: "It tastes a bit bad, just bear with it, it won't hurt after you drink it."

Lin Jiuqing had taken too many medicines before, so he was no longer afraid of the taste of the medicine. He took the bowl and drank it in one gulp.

Mo Xiao put the bowl down, helped Lin Jiuqing lie down, and asked softly: "How are you, are you feeling better?"

Lin Jiuqing was sweating profusely. He shook his head and uttered, "It hurts."

Mo Xiao immediately turned around and glared at Mr. Mu: "Didn't you say that this medicine can relieve her pain? Why does she still feel pain?"

Mr. Mu's mouth twitched, and he said speechlessly: "What I brewed is medicine, not an elixir. It takes time for the effect to take effect."

Mo Xiao asked impatiently: "How long will it take?"

Mr. Mu: "Everyone is a different individual, everyone has a different physique, and the effect of the medicine is also different, so..."

“So you don’t know how long it will take to take effect.”

"..."

Mr. Mu touched his nose and said nothing.

He was just a doctor, not a god. He probably knew when the medicine would take effect, but as he said, everyone's physique was different. If he gave an exact time, and something unexpected happened when the time came, it would be deceiving the emperor. It was unknown what Mo Xiao would do in his rage, so it was better to just keep it vague.

Mo Xiao was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, so he reached out and hugged Lin Jiuqing in his arms and comforted him softly, hoping to divert his attention.
