Chapter 1391: Three weeks pregnant.
Shen Bingling sighed in relief. She has been praying all this while that somehow Li Xue doesn't proceed with the risky treatment. And just when she saw another doctor coming inside to stop the older one, relief washed her worries.
At once getting to the side of Li Xue, she spoke in a whisper, "Dear, please don't do this today. You are very precious to us, especially me. Value your life and stop right here, please."
Shen Bingling said, and Li Xue turned to look at her with a neutral expression. Just when the former felt like her words worked, Li Xue turned to look away as if she wasn't able to comprehend even a word.
Seeing her like that, Shen Bingling bit her lips and was ready to again but then seeing the gaze of Li Xue turning unwavering towards the two doctors, she lost all her hope.
The lady doctor's expression grew more serious as she got inside the room before closing the door behind her. "Dr. Kane, I don't doubt your professionalism but if Li Xue is your patient, I have to interrupt you. You can't proceed with excessive hypnotism on her."
She said and Dr. Kane frowned. Although he was also against the hypnosis therapy on Li Xue, he was still a man who emphasized on professional decorum. And Dr. Ning's seemed to be clearly violating that.
So, offended with Dr. Ning's interruption, he asked, "Dr. Ning, you say that you don't doubt my professionalism yet you came here to teach me my job. Don't you think your actions were quite opposite your words?"
The lady doctor shook her head. Understanding that she was taken wrong for her actions, she quickly explained, "Dr. Kane, you got me wrong. My actions might seem like an offense but that has not been my intention. It was just my fear that I came in like this. Otherwise, I have always respected you."
She said and Dr Kane simply stared at her, still looking skeptical of her words. His hands folded behind with clenched fists.
"Dr. Ning, sorry to interrupt your conversation, Dr. Ning. But may I know with whose permission you have come to stop my session with Dr. Kane? I have signed the consent form already and with that signed, I don't think there should be any problem." Li Xue, who has been there all this while couldn't help but be annoyed with their behaviors. In actuality, it was not their attitude that was pissing her off but their attempts to control her decision. Unknowingly, she was getting more and more irritated from inside.
Turning to look at Dr. Kane, she continued, "Dr. Kane, haven't we already discussed this before?"
Dr. Kane nodded but just when he was about to say something, Dr. Ning turned her gaze towards Li Xue with extreme seriousness. "The consent letter no longer matters here, Mr. Li Xue. You can no longer use hypnotism as a measure to get your memory back."
Li Xue's brows furrowed. "What do you mean? Why can't I?"
Dr. Ning looked at the papers in her hand before extending it out to the other doctor. Although she forwarded the reports to Dr. Kane, her eyes remained at Li Xue as she said, "Because now it will not just put your life in danger but all the little one that has developed inside you."
The words were quite simple and understandable, still for some reason it felt too messy for Li Xue's understanding. Her frown deepened, darting her eyes briefly to look at Dr. Kane, she returned to ask, "What do you mean? The process will be done on me. Who else will get affected by it?"
She asked, not understanding what Dr. Ning meant with her words. It was simply sounding illogical. But even at her such strict question, Dr. Ning remained un-flinched as if she was already expecting this to be like this.
Staring at Li Xue, she said, "There will be another life that you would be risking if you proceed with procedure, Ms. Li Xue. And that life will be of no other but of your baby. So, think once more before you decide to do it. Also, to let you know, I will make it clear that we don't encourage mothers to be reckless in their decision. So, even though you decide to proceed with the procedures, our hospital and the doctors here won't be able to help you."
She said, and the expression of disbelief and confusion only darkened on the face of Li Xue. While her forehead held the wrinkles of puzzlement, her head shook in denial. But just when she was about to declare the doctor's words to be impossible, Dr. Kane, who has just completed reading the medical report spoke up, "Dr. Ning is saying it right, Ms. Li Xue. You can't undergo such a regressive procedure of hypnotism at such a crucial stage of pregnancy. We are sorry, we have to drop this discussion at this moment itself."
He said and Li Xue bewilderment exceeded. "Pregnancy? I can't be pregnant."
She said and Dr. Kane extended the report to object, "You are almost three weeks pregnant and we have the reports to state you this."
Li Xue was taken aback. She didn't move even an inch to take the papers and check it by herself. She felt like she was struck by strong lightning. At that moment, Shen Bingling acted quickly. Lunging forward, she at once took the report in her hands and brought it back to Li Xue to read together.
There were many medical terms written on the papers that were not every meaning was comprehensible for them. But the word 'positive' written down at the bottom of the paper was enough to let them know the results of the test.
While Li Xue couldn't bring herself to remember anything, Shen Bingling gasped in horror. "Li Xue, they are telling the truth. This report is really proving you to be pregnant. What do we do now?"
