Chapter 630: [630] Where did she go? Chapter 630: [630] Where did she go? Zhao Zhaowei stood trembling with hands and feet.
“They say he’s been feeling weak due to dieting for over two months, and his pupils are somewhat yellow. This situation should warrant a thorough hospital stay for a liver examination,” Song Xueling stated bluntly.
Xie Wanying and Xiao Song had hinted at this earlier. Li Qi’an suddenly realized and quickly turned back to stare intently at Zhao Zhaowei’s face.
Zhao Zhaowei covered his face with both hands, “That’s not true, don’t listen to their nonsense.”
“Make a call to Professor Zhao,” Tao Zhijie said, his voice sinking slightly.
“Yes,” He Guangyou picked up his phone and dialed Zhao Huaming.
The grandson of a senior professor from their own department should certainly not be taken lightly.
Zhao Zhaowei, not wanting the matter to blow up , felt like crying, said, “I’ll call my family myself.”
“You, as a medical student, are not even aware of your physical condition. You definitely cannot decide this on your own,” Tao Zhijie said in what seemed to be a gentle voice.
Zhao Zhaowei heard it; every word spoken by this Buddha was like a piercing judgment, as if Buddha was judging Sun Wukong. He felt like collapsing.
Seeing his poor condition, Li Qi’an quickly supported him to sit on a chair, whispering in his ear, “Don’t panic, ask Yingying later what to do.”
It seemed only the top female student in class could save him now, for it was said that Tao Zhijie, this Buddha, might be willing to heed Xie Wanying’s words. In desperation, Zhao Zhaowei asked, “Where did she go!”
This question was also swirling in the minds of Tao Zhijie and the others; after all, the silhouette of Xie Wanying rushing out earlier looked like she was dealing with something extremely urgent, perhaps even a matter of life and death. A slight chill crossed the normally warm smile in Tao Zhijie’s eyes.
Having dashed out of the Hepatobiliary Surgery department, Xie Wanying searched for her childhood friend.
“Over here, Yingying!” Wu Lixuan called out to her, waving her hands, as she and Aunt Li struggled to support Aunt Li’s daughter-in-law, Xu Xing, who was nearly too weak to rise from the floor.
Approaching the patient, Xie Wanying’s eyes swiftly assessed the situation, asking, “Is she pregnant?”
The patient’s small belly was clearly protruding. If it weren’t for a large tumor, this was undoubtedly a pregnant woman.
“Yes, she’s been pregnant for almost four months,” Aunt Li said.
Such a situation hadn’t been reported over the phone, likely because the family member hadn’t had time to explain fully. Upon hearing ‘pregnant’, Xie Wanying realized the gravity of the situation.
Because of the unique nature of pregnancy, many illnesses involve both the mother and the unborn child, making clinical treatment complex as many medications cannot be used. Hence, the often-depicted dramatic choice between the mother and the child in TV dramas is not most commonly encountered during childbirth but during the pregnancy.
Once the mother contracts a certain disease, medication restrictions may jeopardize the mother’s life – it is at these moments when mothers are often forced to make the heart-wrenching decision to sacrifice the unborn child. In reality, many mothers and their families are unwilling to give up, especially for those women who have struggled to conceive – it’s exceedingly cruel.
This is why, Li Xiaobing is stable, but Lau Jingyun and Dai Ronghong are terrified; having seen so much clinically, their hearts have already been frightened. They can’t relax until the moment the child is born.
The nine months of a woman’s pregnancy is like walking a tightrope.
