The carriage sped down the road and quickly came to a halt at the Official Reputation's Mansion. The maid was the first to jump off the carriage, reaching out to help Shao He.
Lin Shuangqiao, however, did not receive such treatment, which greatly displeased her, though she did not show it on her face.
There were already people waiting in front of the mansion. Upon seeing the arrivals, they hurried forward, bowing as they said, "Doctor Shao has been seen."
"Where is the woman in labor? Lead me to her quickly," Shao He said, waving her hand at the nanny.
The nanny hurriedly led her into the mansion, to the chamber where the mistress was.
Even before they approached, they could hear the sounds of crying from inside, the pregnant woman's sobs heartbreakingly sad and desperate.
Shao He frowned slightly and quickened her pace.
After pushing open the door and entering, she was hit by an unpleasant odor that instantly made her complexion turn sour.
