Chapter 99 - Then…Can It Be Treated?

Both Fu Yahui and Huo Yuxi got up extremely early the next morning. One was headed to the hospital and the other one was planning to meet up with her lawyer.

Both the mother and daughter got into their own respective cars and drove off early in the morning.

Fu Yahui had wanted to meet up with her lawyer to discuss about the compensation that Jiang Yuning had asked for. Her lawyer suggested that she could simply transfer four hundred million yuan today and inform Jiang Yuning that the rest would be given in the next two days due to difficulties in transferring the funds. The lawyer also advised Fu Yahui not to mention anything about the shares for the time being. This was because the lawyer was trying to gain as much time as possible to eliminate any unfavourable evidence that could incriminate Fu Yahui. The lawyer felt that in this way, Jiang Yuning would have a lower chance of success even if she insisted on bringing the case to court eventually.

“What should I do if Jiang Yuning asks me about the shares?”

“I have already prepared a video for you. Just tell her that I am already in the midst of arranging the share transfer for her,” the lawyer replied as he sent the video to Fu Yahui. “She is only here for the money so it is very unlikely that she would expose this matter to the public. The only reason she is doing this is so she can coerce you and gain some monetary benefits. I have seen plenty of people like her. You have to be firm. Do not give in even if she threatens you. She is the one asking for money, so we hold the final say.”

“Alright then.” Fu Yahui nodded. At this time, the only person that she trusted was her lawyer.

Sorry, Mr. Lawyer.

Jiang Yuning was in fact the kind of person who would expose everything to the public after three days. The only reason she was asking for money was because that money belonged to the Jiang family and Lu Jingzhi in the first place!

…

On the other hand, Huo Yuxi had just completed a series of examinations and tests at the hospital which included an ultrasound of her private part, and also a TCT and HPV test.

“Doctor, is there anything wrong with me?” Huo Yuxi asked anxiously as she sat directly across the doctor.

As the TCT and HPV test results were not available immediately, the doctor could only give her opinion based on her analysis of the current situation.

“I would suggest that you check into the hospital for at least a few days,” the doctor, who was an old gynaecology specialist, replied bluntly to Huo Yuxi’s question. “It is not advisable for you to go home in your current condition.”

“Can you just tell me what is the matter with me?” Huo Yuxi asked once again.

“Miss Huo, listen carefully to what I have to say. There are irregular lumps and growths in your cervix with irregular borders. This mean that the results might turn out to be rather pessimistic—it is highly possible that those are malignant growths, which suggests that you have cervical cancer. We can only confirm this after we received the results of your TCT and HPV tests. However, based on your current condition and symptoms, the possibility that you have cervical cancer is extremely high. Therefore, it is advisable for you to be hospitalized so we can proceed with active treatment immediately. Do you understand what I am saying?”

Huo Yuxi’s mind went blank as soon as the doctor spoke.

“That is impossible, doctor. I am still so young…how is it be possible for me to get cancer?”

“There are many people nowadays who are contracting cervical cancer at a young age. I have a patient currently undergoing treatment who is only twenty-five years old. There are many different factors that could lead to cervical cancer such as having sexual intercourse at a young age, having many different sexual partners, undergoing many abortion surgeries, and so on.”

Huo Yuxi widened her eyes because she had done everything that the doctor had just mentioned.

Fu Yahui had already reminded her to take good care of and to love her own body because she would otherwise easily develop cervical cancer but she had not believed her, assuming that Fu Yahui was only saying that to curse her.

She had never put much thought into it and had completely forgotten that Fu Yahui had been a medical doctor before she married into the Jiang family. It was not surprising that Fu Yahui would know about this.

“Then…can it be treated?” Huo Yuxi asked as she grabbed the doctor’s hand and started pleading desperately.

“First of all, we would have to wait for the results of the TCT and HPV tests to determine if you really have cervical cancer. Once it has been determined, there are a few stages of treatment that you would have to undergo depending on your physical condition. There will be further consultations on the treatment process, so you do not need to worry so much right now.”

Huo Yuxi felt as though she had just been struck by lightning and her face turned extremely pale after the doctor provided her with a detailed explanation about cervical cancer.

This was because cervical cancer was usually not obvious in its early stages and the symptoms usually appeared…only when it was too late.

Furthermore, if it was confirmed to be cervical cancer, she would have to remove her uterus before continuing any further treatment to get rid of all the cancer cells. In the later stages of the cancer…the only purpose for any treatment would just be to prolong the life of the patients.

No…it was impossible! She could not believe this. She was not ill!

“No, I do not believe anything that you are saying. I want to get a second opinion from another hospital. You must have diagnosed me wrongly.”

“Miss Huo, getting overly emotional will not help with your condition. If you really have doubts about my diagnosis, you are free to seek for a second opinion from any other hospital. However, I hope that you will not delay the treatment for your illness.”

Huo Yuxi rushed out of the doctor’s office because she could not accept this fact.

The old gynaecology specialist was not surprised by Huo Yuxi’s reaction because she had already seen many other patients who had reacted in a similar manner.

There were certain young women in this world who would always use their bodies as a weapon. They believed that they would always be able to use their bodies to achieve anything that they wanted. Thus, they allowed their bodies to be trampled on and did not show their bodies care until it was too late.

Regret?

It was useless!

Huo Yuxi felt extremely sad and depressed, especially when her boyfriend started calling her repeatedly. She finally had the chance to marry into a wealthy family. Why was God torturing her in this manner?

She was really dissatisfied. She was really dissatisfied!

…

In a blink of an eye, it was already eleven o’clock in the morning.

Shen Yichen had left his house early and he was already waiting outside the villa to pick up Jiang Yuning.

Jiang Yuning came out of the villa with her purse in hand about ten minutes later, but she was not in a good mood. This was because she had already expected Fu Yahui to delay the transfer of the shares to her, but she had not expected Fu Yahui to separate the eight hundred million yuan into two separate payments.

This was what Fu Yahui had told her over the phone this morning. “Yuning, mom can only transfer so much money into your account right now. I am still preparing the other four hundred million yuan. You may have to wait another day or two for me to transfer that amount into your bank account.”

“I have already told you that I will only give you three days to give me eight hundred million yuan and to transfer 10% of Dongheng Enterprise’s shares over to me. You only have two and a half days left. If you are trying to make things difficult for me, then I will just wait for the law to deal with you,” Jiang Yuning replied before hanging up immediately.

Fu Yahui had complete trust in her lawyer and therefore, she did not take Jiang Yuning’s threat to heart.

She believed that Jiang Yuning was only threatening her for her money and that she would definitely not carry out her threat.

As soon as Shen Yichen saw Jiang Yuning coming out of the villa, he quickly got out of the car to open the car door for her. When he saw the expression on her face, he asked her immediately, “What is the matter with you?”

“Nothing.”

“I am just afraid that you will influence the outcome of the meeting with that attitude.”

“Director Shen, do not worry. You can be rest assured that I will not let you down,” Jiang Yuning patted her chest as she assured Shen Yichen. “I will not waste any more time and feelings on those who are not important to me.”

“Director Shen Guobang is not easy to deal with. He is a very difficult person. He is not interested in money or jewelry and he has a very strange personality. However, I do not want you to give in too much to whatever he is requesting for,” Shen Yichen quickly instructed. “After all, we are not that desperate to give up on your true character just for a role.”

“Director Shen, I realize that you are really long winded and you love to nag…”

Shen Yichen was left speechless.

He was criticized once again.

“I am just kidding. I know what I should do. Even if I do not pass the interview later, I am already preparing for my second short video. I believe that I will definitely be able to carve a path for myself one day!”
