Was it found among your everyday belongings?
"I found it in the pillow." Tao Lihua said, closing her eyes in anguish, tears streaming down her face.
"Then this injury on your face makes sense. It started as a boil, but if you're exposed to this kind of cold and damp substance for a long time, the wound will slowly fester and damage your internal organs." Thinking this, the old doctor continued, "You haven't come for a checkup recently, let me take your pulse!"
Tao Lihua sat down and reached out her hand. She didn't want to die; she wanted to live!
Seeing the doctor's increasingly serious expression, he had a bad feeling.
The senior doctor moved his hand away and looked at the other two people, "What is your relationship with this patient?"
Tao Lihua quickly said, "Doctor, just tell me what's wrong. I can handle it! They are just casual acquaintances and can't make decisions for me."
The old doctor thought for a moment and said, "Your current symptoms have completely damaged your internal organs. Even without contact with such items, and with medication, you have at most five years to live!"
Tao Lihua stood there, stunned. The thought that she would die was different from being told by others that she would die in only 5 years.
Because she didn't want to die!
"Is it that serious?" Lu Zhixia asked.
The senior doctor could only use his professional terminology to say, "First of all, her body was fundamentally damaged by this extremely yin and cold substance. Secondly, a lot of toxins accumulated in her body, and if they were not resolved over a long period of time, they formed a malignant tumor."
Lu Zhixia: "What if we release all this poison?"
The old doctor thought for a moment and said, "You mean acupuncture?"
Lu Zhixia nodded, "That's right, that's the method."
The old doctor stroked his beard. "Comrade! Your idea is good, but I don't have the skill. I can still do a simple acupuncture treatment."
"In her case, I don't have any particularly good acupuncture techniques that can help."
Judging from the old doctor's age, Lu Zhixia figured he must be quite skilled, so she sat down and began to speak.
"You can try these acupuncture techniques—"
The older doctor's eyes lit up as he listened, as if he had opened up an unknown territory and suddenly understood everything.
Half an hour later.
The two stopped talking. The old doctor took a sip of tea; he rarely spoke this much during his daily consultations.
"Young lady, you are very skilled in acupuncture."
"Thank you for the compliment. I'd like to know if you're confident in performing acupuncture to detoxify her now?"
The old doctor thought for a moment and said, "I can give it a try, but I don't know what the effect will be. However, as long as the toxins in her body are gradually eliminated, her health will definitely get better and better. It's definitely impossible for her to return to her previous state."
Lu Zhixia looked at Tao Lihua, "What are you thinking?"
"I'm willing to give it a try!" Tao Lihua said with a determined look in her eyes. "At worst, I'll just lose my life."
The senior doctor admired her courage. "Then, starting tomorrow, come over at noon and I'll give you acupuncture. Let's try two courses of acupuncture treatment first. Also, you should avoid contact with these extremely yin and cold foods."
"Okay, I understand." Tao Lihua touched her right cheek, feeling both a longing for a new life and a deepening hatred for Zhao Zeyu.
When they came out of the clinic, it was almost dark outside, and they stood facing each other on the curb.
Tao Lihua: "Comrade Lu, are you going back tomorrow?"
Lu Zhixia: "Yes, I'll head back tomorrow."
Tao Lihua bowed deeply to her, saying, "Thank you for everything you've done for me."
Lu Zhixia was worried that Tao Lihua might do something drastic, so she asked directly,
"After you recover, I'd like to know what your next step will be."
Tao Lihua's eyes flashed with hatred. "I will take revenge. I will not offend others unless they offend me. If he didn't want to be with me, he could have just said so. Why did he have to kill me?"
Lu Zhixia couldn't help but think of Song Weidong, "That's because of their greed and selfishness. There must be something about you that he likes. He doesn't want it anymore, and he doesn't want anyone else to have it either."
So I hope you won't do anything too extreme, because you have a brighter future ahead of you!
Tao Lihua's mind was filled with images of a brilliant life as she held her injured face.
Will I ever find happiness again?
Lu Zhixia held her hand and said, "A woman's happiness does not depend on a man, but on living her own life."
Tao Lihua processed this sentence in her mind: Yes, she too can live her own life.
"Thank you!"
