Liu Jing and Wei Linghua couldn't help holding their breath when they saw Chen Yun taking their daughter's pulse outside the bed. They didn't dare to blink, for fear of missing any words, expressions or movements of Chen Yun.
"How's the situation, Professor Shen?"
Tian Tian asked worriedly, hoping for good news. If it wasn't good news, Yinyin...was it really...
"It's okay. You must pay more attention during this period. I'll see if there is anything I can think of."
Chen Yun shook his head, stopping Tian Tian from asking further questions. If this were in front of the parents, Chen Yun would answer the question directly. However, in front of children, especially patients, Chen Yun was reluctant to answer any questions.
"Hubby...is the situation really bad?"
"What should we do? What should we do with Yinyin? We..."
Wei Linghua was on the verge of tears, biting her lips, not daring to cry out loud. The distance between them was so great, separated by a door, that she felt no warmth or security.
"Everything... Let's talk about it after Professor Shen comes out!"
Liu Jing empathized with his wife, who was already devastated. His heart also froze. He had seen too much, but the last thing he wanted was for his own child to face the life-or-death decision. It was too difficult a decision, too hard for him to face.
"Yes... yes, Professor Shen didn't say anything, let's not scare ourselves."
"Professor Shen is so amazing, she will definitely be able to cure our Yinyin."
"Don't scare yourself. You'll definitely get better."
Wei Linghua muttered to herself, longing for the day she could finally recover. Yinyin hadn't suffered a single hardship in years, but lately, she'd experienced a lifetime of hardship. Injections, medication, not being able to play outside, not being able to get into any bumps or bruises, not being able to interact with other children... so many things she couldn't.
Walking out of the ward, Shen Yun saw Liu Jing and Wei Linghua at a glance, and without saying anything, he took them to the office. There was only one door outside the ward, and talking loudly would make noise, which would affect the child and would not be good.
“Doctor Shen, Yinyin’s illness…” Liu Jing looked at Shen Yun embarrassedly, his face full of embarrassment.
"I've checked your pulse, and it's not particularly good. You need to be prepared, as I can't guarantee anything."
Chen Yun hesitated for a moment, saying she couldn't guarantee anything. A successful cure would be a good thing, but if it wasn't, there was nothing she could do. The condition was too serious, now in its advanced stages, and the hope of a cure was slim. If... she thought, if it had been earlier, perhaps she might have been able to find a solution.
"We are mentally prepared. Don't worry, we won't blame you no matter what happens."
"Yes, yes, we all believe you!"
Liu Jing and Wei Linghua exchanged glances, mentally prepared for the worst. They would accept any outcome. They wouldn't blame the doctors; it wasn't easy for them either. The cure rate for leukemia was incredibly low, and no one could guarantee they'd be among the lucky few.
"Okay... I'll make two preparations: one is Traditional Chinese Medicine treatment, and the other is Western Medicine treatment. Traditional Chinese Medicine strengthens the body's foundation, while Western Medicine will try to find a breakthrough. By the way, you should try to find any direct relatives who can match Yin Yin's blood type. This is also the key point."
Shen Yun wasn't sure if she could do it, but since she'd already taken it upon herself, there was no reason to give up. Giving up halfway wasn't her style. Although she didn't particularly enjoy the situation, she was willing to give it a try. Saving a life, even millions of lives, from the clutches of illness was a significant and positive event.
"Well, we'll try our best."
Liu Jing nodded. If his immediate family couldn't find a suitable donor, he would look elsewhere. He didn't believe that China, as vast as it is, couldn't find the perfect bone marrow donor. No matter how much it cost, no matter how much manpower and resources it would take, as long as he could save the child, it would be worth it.
"Doctor Shen, this is a little gift from us, please take a look..."
"No, take it back! I don't accept these things. If you really want to do something, take good care of the child."
Shen Yun waved her hand. She didn't care about these things, and she had never thought that one day she would receive a red envelope from a patient's family. She looked at the two people deeply, and saw that they didn't know what to do. Then Shen Yun slowly withdrew her gaze. Everything was for the children, and it was difficult for parents.
"How can this be so embarrassing? You are our savior."
"No, seeing as your conditions are okay, you can just do more charity in the future. You can donate more money to orphanages and poor villages. That's the best way to express your gratitude."
Chen Yun signaled that they could leave. She would think of a way to maintain Yin Yin's condition and see if there was any good way to maintain her in a peaceful state. The disease was deteriorating too fast, and it was impossible for the hematopoietic system to recover and save her.
"Chen... Professor Shen... is it really that serious?" Tian Tian looked reluctant. She didn't like seeing such scenes of sorrow and joy.
"You heard it too. It's actually more serious than this. Yinyin's body is already rejecting the idea. I don't think she'll last more than a week. Not much longer..."
Chen Yun sighed softly, so softly that it was completely inaudible unless one was listening carefully. She didn't really want to talk about this topic. Counting the time was the hardest feeling. You have to fight against time, and you have to fight against the disease, but you never have much time to prepare.
"Ah...no way?" Tian Tian couldn't help but exclaimed.
"Well, I don't know what to do."
Shen Yun's shoulders slumped, she didn't know what to do. The best solution right now was to develop a cure, but after spending so much time in the lab, there had been no progress. No... no, she didn't have much time to rest, she had to get it done quickly.
"Give me more case histories of leukemia patients, as well as their test results and blood samples."
Chen Yun looked at Tian Tian. After finding all of these, she continued to go back to the laboratory. By the way, before leaving, he handed Tian Tian the prescription for strengthening the body and replenishing the essence during this period, and told her to follow the instructions on the prescription when performing the treatment.
