Chapter 359: Chapter 359: Fostering a Good Relationship
"You don’t need to deceive me anymore. Your symptoms are typical of an ectopic pregnancy, and you can’t escape my notice. Although I haven’t given you a pregnancy check or a B-ultrasound, once checked, the result won’t change."
"That’s impossible, Doctor Liu. Stop trying to scare me. There’s no way this could happen. How could I be pregnant when I’m perfectly fine?"
Hearing this, Liu Zheng just sighed deeply. However, he was still confident in his own thoughts and believed that they were certainly correct.
"Anyway, I’ve said as much as I needed to. If you don’t accept my advice, there’s nothing I can do. All I can do now is to tell them to take you to the hospital immediately for a thorough examination. Once the results are out, nobody will be able to cover it up."
Liu Zheng saw that she was resolutely uncooperative, so with great reluctance, he had no other choice but to resort to a last-ditch option. He didn’t want to destroy the marriage or the family, though.
Some happiness is only superficial, but it’s just a facade. He worked outside year-round, and she was his newlywed bride. Really, how many can withstand such loneliness?
He was just about to turn and leave when he felt the woman’s hand gripping his firmly.
Liu Zheng firmly stopped in his tracks and then slowly turned his body back around. He could feel that the woman was very nervous, and her hands were ice cold, trembling continuously.
"Do you know why I asked your parents-in-law and your husband to leave? My intention was to give you a chance. If you are willing to tell me what really happened, then I can help conceal this for you and treat you. Understand?"
"Okay, Doctor Liu, I admit, I did see someone, but it was just that one time. Could it really be such a coincidence?"
"That’s right. You do have an ectopic pregnancy. If that’s the case, I can find a way to take you to the hospital, alert Director Xiao to keep this a secret for you, and just perform a removal surgery as if it were a uterine fibroid. But, I must tell you in advance that the surgery will likely involve removing one of your fallopian tubes, which means your chances of becoming pregnant in the future will be greatly reduced."
"You mean, I will only have half the chance of getting pregnant in the future?"
"Yes, that’s the situation. So, I can only tell you the reality. However, it’s not that you can’t get pregnant; it’s just that your chances might be reduced compared to other people. But you’re both young, and there’s definitely still a chance."
"Doctor Liu, thank you. After this is over, I’ve decided to go to the city with my husband to work and then live a good life."
"I hope you can do that. That’s all I can do for now. Alright then, I’m going out to call them in and explain the condition. In the end, I will arrange for someone to take you to the county hospital for systematic treatment, and I believe it won’t take long for you to recover."
"Doctor Liu, can’t you treat me now? If so, it wouldn’t be necessary to alert so many people, and we wouldn’t have to go to the hospital either."
"The conditions in our village are a bit rudimentary, so I can’t give you systematic treatment. After all, it concerns your future fertility, so I must be more cautious. Don’t worry, I’ll take care of everything there, and absolutely won’t let any word get out. Your in-laws and your husband are all honest people. They trust me completely, so whatever I say, they will believe. Rest assured."
The woman didn’t speak; she just nodded gratefully, then a tear escaped from the corner of her eye.
She simply wiped it away with her hand. Through this single tear, Liu Zheng could feel her regret for that impulsive action she had taken before.
After all, who can be without fault? She was just an ordinary person, and even a saint might make mistakes. Since they were still so young, Liu Zheng also hoped to give her a chance to start anew.
Then, her whole family crowded into the room, all looking anxiously at Liu Zheng, not understanding what his examination results would be.
"I checked her approximately, and combining her descriptions with my examination, I can confirm she has a gynecological issue. It’s minor, but it requires surgery. Probably, in about three days, she should be able to get out of bed comfortably."
"Really? Only, only surgery is needed? Is there, is there much danger? Will it affect future pregnancies?"
The concern of the elderly is always there; they are only interested in whether the woman can carry on the family line. That’s all they care about, and Liu Zheng could understand the woman’s helplessness in this family.
"What time is it to be worrying about pregnancy when she’s being treated? As long as she recovers well, why wouldn’t there be a chance in the future? Besides, I’ve already told her that after she recovers, she should go to the city with her husband to work."
"Really? Are you really deciding to go with me?"
Upon hearing this, the husband was truly excited because he had mentioned this more than once before and had never expected her to agree at this moment.
"Yes. Doctor Liu just told me. I am indeed feeling weak now because I’ve been home alone for so long. I don’t want to face such situations anymore. So, after I recover, the two of us will rent a place in the city and live there together."
"That’s great, really great. Doctor Liu, thank you, you not only cured her disease but also resolved a longstanding issue for our family. So now, should I go to the hospital right away?"
"Yes, you can go straight there now. I’ll notify Director Xiao, and he’ll receive you. Also, he’ll give you the most favorable treatment, so you’ll get more back from insurance, and you won’t have to pay much out of pocket. Alright? Arrange a car to take her there; I’ll make a call."
