"I can take care of myself."
Bai Zhi spoke weakly; she felt that these past two days she’d been like a clay doll, unable to talk back or resist.
"No, I don’t think you can."
Wu Wa’s face darkened as she bluntly spoke, looking somewhat fierce, but more so, she was worried.
Bai Zhi immediately caved in; she decided to obediently listen for the sake of Wu Wa and her aunt who were extremely worried about her.
"Teacher Ye, you all go on, besides having nurses, aren’t we here too? Kids, we’re Teacher Ye’s colleagues, I am Teacher Li. This is Teacher Niu. If you need anything, just call us, okay?"
Teacher Li hurried over to speak, Teacher Ye had helped them a lot at school, so it was no problem for them to help now.
"Okay, thank you Teacher Li, Teacher Niu."
"Don’t mention it, don’t mention it."
Teacher Li was somewhat embarrassed, and Teacher Niu’s face reddened as she smiled awkwardly.
Ye Xiu was now eager to find out exactly what was wrong with her daughter. After speaking, she let Wu Wa support her to go find a doctor. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to walk by herself but rather, she had no strength. At this moment, her entire body felt weak and her heart was racing.
By the time they reached the office, Ye Xiu immediately walked in. She pinched herself hard, reminding herself that she had to stay strong. She couldn’t give out.
"Hello. I am Bai Zhi’s mother. Can you tell me what’s wrong with my daughter?"
As she asked the question, tears blurred her vision once more. Xingxing was sick, but why did she have to hear about it from the doctor?
In the office, apart from Li Mo, there were several other doctors, all of whom looked quite old.
"Let me explain. I am Li Mo, Bai Zhi’s attending physician. She arrived in the afternoon, and Bai Xin told me. They suspected that Bai Zhi had a needle inside her body and hoped for a comprehensive examination. I didn’t believe it; what era are we living in, how could someone be so cruel as to insert a needle into a child’s body?"
Li Mo spoke with emotion, and not just Li Mo – actually, every doctor present was outraged.
Ye Xiu almost couldn’t stand up again.
"Doctor, what do you mean? I don’t understand. What needle? How could there be a needle?"
Wasn’t this just some absurd tale? How could there be a needle inside Xingxing’s body? But if not, why did all their faces look so serious?
"It’s , an embroidery needle, the kind you often use to sew clothes. In your daughter’s knee, arm, and shoulder. Bai Xin took away the images, but I clear remember every location. Bai Zhi’s mother, the current situation is that if we don’t remove them, maybe it looks fine now, but who knows when it will suddenly erupt, she could become paralyzed, and paralysis is just the best-case scenario, do you understand?"
Li Mo looked solemnly at Ye Xiu; even though his master had already returned, the situation was still not optimistic.
"Yes, Bai Zhi’s mother, the situation is very severe at the moment. If we don’t remove the needles, the consequences are unimaginable, but the difficulty is considerable with our current technological conditions."
Li Mo’s master also counted as a quite famous surgeon, but this time, the situation was tricky.
This was a child, and moreover, in such narrow spaces. A single misstep and perhaps the child’s foot would be ruined.
Under these circumstances, they still needed a thorough discussion.
Listening to this, Ye Xiu felt as if she’d been struck by lightning, and she collapsed onto the ground.
