Fu Hongxing even felt that although he and Ning Jing had not used contraception in the past two years, they were very fortunate that she had not gotten pregnant.
That way, it would be easier for Ning Jing to leave the Fu family if she wanted to.
However, regardless of whether they had children or not, Fu Hongxing's heart ached terribly whenever he thought about his wife marrying another man.
He couldn't bear to part with her, he really couldn't bear to, and the thought of other men embracing their wives like he did drove him mad with jealousy.
So, regarding the bullet in his head, after mentioning it to Ning Jing a couple of times when he first returned, he never brought it up again.
Now that Ning Jing has brought it up like this, and even pressured him to get a follow-up examination, Fu Hongxing is completely flustered.
He was afraid, afraid that the test results would be bad.
In the past, young calves were not afraid of tigers. When I first joined the army, I was completely unafraid of death.
He'd survived the hail of bullets, but now he was afraid because he had something he couldn't let go of.
But when Fu Hongxing said he didn't want to get checked, Ning Jing's eyes welled up with tears.
Seeing Ning Jing's fragile, glass-like appearance, Fu Hongxing ultimately couldn't bring herself to refuse.
The equipment at the military hospital yielded the same results. How could the equipment at this county hospital be better than that of the military hospital?
But if he refused, Ning Jing would just look at him with red eyes and not say a word.
Left with no other choice, I could only nod in agreement.
This examination gave the doctors at the hospital a huge shock.
"Comrade Fu Hongxing, do you know you have a bullet stuck in your head?"
The doctor asked Fu Hongxing, who had a calm expression, with a solemn face.
Fu Hongxing nodded: "I used to be a soldier, but I was discharged because of this bullet."
Upon hearing Fu Hongxing's words, the doctor's face immediately showed a look of "I understand".
His previously solemn demeanor softened slightly, and he spoke gently with great respect: "So Comrade Fu is a retired soldier, why didn't the doctors at the hospital who examined you remove this bullet?"
After saying that, he frowned and picked up the film he had taken again, staring at it intently at the air for a long time with great confusion.
Hearing the doctor ask this question, Fu Hongxing didn't think much of it and just gave a wry smile.
"Doctor, you must be joking. The doctors at the military hospital said that the bullet is pressing on my nerves, and surgery is impossible."
Upon hearing Fu Hongxing's words, the doctor put down the X-ray film in his hand.
Then he said very seriously, "Nonsense, your bullet was clearly on the surface, how could it be pressing on any nerves?"
It can be removed with just a simple minor surgery under anesthesia, so how could it be impossible to remove surgically?
Fu Hongxing was stunned when he heard the doctor say that.
Then he suddenly stood up, and asked in a trembling voice, "Doctor, you...you're telling the truth?"
The doctor nodded very affirmatively; he had looked at the film over and over again and found it very clear.
He clipped the film to a clip on the wall, then turned on the lightbox and pointed to a shadow on the edge of the skull in the film, saying, "Look, this bullet is in such a superficial place, how could it be impossible to perform surgery?"
Following the doctor's pointing, even though Fu Hongxing didn't understand medicine, he clearly understood that the bullet had now moved to the surface of his head.
