Chapter 225: Concussion? Need to be hospitalized?
Tang Yutong's fingers suddenly froze on the checklist, and she unconsciously pinched the edge of the paper to create a wrinkle.
She turned to look at Chu Ci and found that this usually cynical young man was now pale, his eyes fixed on the dark entrance of the CT machine, as if some ferocious beast was hiding there.
Tang Yutong hadn't expected that the reason Chu Ci was afraid of the examination was actually because of his mother...
"Is your mother... okay?"
As soon as she said that, Tang Yutong regretted it. Her voice unconsciously became softer, her fingertips unconsciously stroked the edge of the checklist, and her eyes were full of apology.
She didn't expect that a simple examination would touch the deepest wound in his heart...
Chu Ci heard this and forced a smile:
"I'm fine. She's been gone for many years and I'm used to it." He shrugged casually.
But anyone could see that he had not let it go, otherwise why would he be so afraid of the examination?
Tang Yutong asked tentatively: "Is your mother's illness a brain disease?"
"It's a malignant brain tumor. My mother only had a headache at first, and she thought it was no big deal and that it would be fine with some medicine. Who knew the diagnosis would reveal it was a brain tumor..."
"I'm sorry... I didn't know your mother..."
Tang Yutong regretted what she had just said. In Chu Ci's opinion, the inspection instrument might really eat people...
Chu Ci did not answer her, but kept his eyes on the CT machine, and then teased:
"You said...if I go in and come out again, will I not be able to see the sun next year?"
Tang Yutong grabbed his arm, her nails almost digging into his sleeve:
"What nonsense! Pah! How can you say such things casually?"
Chu Ci looked at her anxious expression and chuckled:
"You are superstitious. I don't believe in this."
"Believe it or not, hurry up, baaah!"
"childish."
There are so many people in the hospital, he would never do such a thing.
Tang Yutong just looked at him like that, as if she could keep looking at him like that unless he said something like that.
Chu Ci was helpless and whispered in her ear:
"There are so many people watching, please give me some face."
"You know how to save face now? What were you doing before? Hurry up!"
Tang Yutong kept urging.
Chu Ci looked at Tang Yutong's stubborn eyes and suddenly felt helpless. In the end, he gave in. He leaned close to her ear and whispered "Pooh" three times.
Chu Ci's hot breath hit Tang Yutong's ears directly. Her face turned red immediately, and the itchiness in her ears made her shrink her neck.
Chu Ci's lips curled up into a triumphant smile as he just looked at Tang Yutong.
Chu Ci recalled the scene when he first met Tang Yutong. He had thought she was a master in love, but after two days of contact, Chu Ci found that Tang Yutong was pretending. Her shy expression could not deceive anyone at all.
"How long will it take you two to go in? There are people waiting behind us."
Just at this moment a young nurse came over. She really didn't want to disturb their flirting, but it didn't seem appropriate in this occasion, right?
Tang Yutong and Chu Ci were both a little embarrassed. Then Tang Yutong looked at the nurse and said, "Please wait two minutes. We'll be in right away."
"Okay, then hurry up, there are people waiting behind."
"Thanks."
Tang Yutong thanked the nurse and left. Tang Yutong looked at Chu Ci and said seriously:
"Believe me, you'll be fine. This is just a normal checkup. You won't be like your mother..."
Chu Ci looked at Tang Yutong's confident expression and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows:
"How can you be so sure? Could it be that Miss Tang also works part-time as a fortune teller?"
Tang Yutong's mouth twitched. How could she not know? Judging from Chu Ci's condition yesterday, he had only bumped into something at most. How could he possibly have a serious illness?
Tang Yutong thought for a moment, looked at Chu Ci and said:
"How about this, after you check it out last night and make sure it's nothing serious, I'll tell you how I found out. How about that?"
Chu Ci took the examination form from her hand and walked towards the CT room.
"You don't have to tell me, because I know you're just guessing."
Then Chu Ci disappeared in the corridor and went straight in.
Chu Ci didn't know where he got the courage from, and he actually went into the examination room alone. Could it be that he really believed Tang Yutong's words and thought he was fine?
Chu Ci couldn't help but laugh. He actually believed such a low-level lie...
After Chu Ci finished the examination, he and Tang Yutong sat on the bench outside to wait for the results. Tang Yutong looked at him and asked:
"Are you still feeling bad now?"
"I don't know why, but it got much better after entering the hospital. Maybe it knew it was in big trouble."
Chu Ci pointed to the back of his head as he spoke. Tang Yutong was amused by his words. She had not expected that Chu Ci had such a cute side.
About half an hour later, the test results came out and they took them back to the outpatient department.
In the diagnosis room, the chief physician inserted the imaging film into the light box. The white light passed through the film, clearly reflecting the shadow inside the skull.
"Moderate concussion with mild subdural hemorrhage."
The doctor tapped a shadow on the film and continued:
"Immediate hospitalization is required for observation for at least 72 hours."
"Concussion? And need to be hospitalized?"
Chu Ci was incredulous. He woke up with a concussion? He felt like he must have been beaten up, because who else would get a concussion from sleeping?
He looked at Tang Yutong with an intriguing look, full of suspicion. Tang Yutong was the only one who had contact with him last night. Could it be that she really hit me?
"That's right, your condition isn't too serious. You just need to be hospitalized for observation for three days. If you're fine in these few days, there's basically no major problem."
"You said it's not serious. Can I not be hospitalized? It's the same if I go home and observe it."
Chu Ci really doesn't want to be hospitalized. What would happen if this got out?
The doctor coughed awkwardly and said, "Mr. Chu, although the bleeding in this area is not serious, if you continue to overuse your brain or get shocked..."
Hearing this, Tang Yutong looked at the doctor and said seriously:
"Okay, doctor. Please write us the hospitalization procedures."
The doctor looked at the two of them and nodded:
"Okay, I'll start the hospitalization procedures for you now. When the time comes, just go find the nurse and arrange a ward."
Chu Ci: ??? This patient's opinion is not important at all, right?
After the doctor completed the hospitalization procedures for Chu Ci, Tang Yutong took Chu Ci out of the clinic. As soon as they walked out of the door, Chu Ci teased:
"Miss Tang, I wonder since when you can make decisions for me?"
