Chapter 836: Misdiagnosis

Afternoon.

The District Second Hospital was tense.

Not only the Deputy Hospital Directors were there, but the Hospital Director had also come to the ward. The Hospital Director was not a specialist, but he had to come in this situation.

The test results were placed on a table.

The Hospital Director hesitated for a while. “Secretary Geng, what were the results when you visited Shanghai Hospital?”

Geng Yuehua replied. “I did not get the in-depth test results. But the initial tests suspected I had late-stage lung cancer.”

“Why did they suspect? Do you still have the x-rays and CT scans with you?” The Director asked.

Geng Yuehua shook her head. “I threw it away and did not bring it back. That hospital did not keep my records.”

The Hospital Director and his Deputies looked at each other. They were speechless. This might be a case of misdiagnosis or a miracle. They need to look at the previous CT scans to determine if Secretary Geng had late-stage cancer. No hospital can cure late-stage cancer, let alone cure it in one night.

Geng Xinke got anxious. “What is going on now?”

Geng Yuehua’s mother asked. “Does my daughter have cancer?”

The Director cleared his throat. “From today's test results, Secretary Geng does not have cancer, and she is very healthy. I don’t know what happened that day. We…. Errr…. We might have misdiagnosed her condition. Sorry.”

Geng Yuehua’s father got mad. “Misdiagnosed?! How can you all do that?”

Geng Yuehua’s mother yelled. “Do you think this is over like this?! You all are irresponsible!” Thᴇ link to the origin of this information rᴇsts in novelenglish.net . Firᴇ.net

“Mum, Dad.” Geng Yuehua calmly said. “Let it go. They had tried their best, and I believe it was unintentional. Let’s not talk about this anymore.”

“Yuehua….” Geng Yuehua’s mother said.

“I said let’s forget it. Listen to me.”

Geng Yuehua’s parents looked at Geng Yuehua and stopped scolding the Director. Geng Yuehua had been the family's decision-maker for a long time.

Geng Xinke was overjoyed. “Mum, Dad, Sister is fine, and it is more important than anything.”

Geng Yuehua’s mother thought for a while and nodded. “Yes… yes…. She is fine now. My daughter is fine….”

Lin Pingping could not hold back her tears anymore. She cried. “Sister Yuehua.”

Geng Yuehua’s mother sniffled and held her daughter’s hand. “Thank god you are fine.”

The Director apologized again. “We are very sorry, Secretary Geng.”

Geng Yuehua waved her hand. “It’s alright. You all can go back now. Thanks for taking care of me these two days.”

The Director quickly replied. “Don’t say that. We are at fault.”

Many Nan Shan District Government staff discussed Geng Yuehua’s late-stage cancer in the afternoon. Many of them were guessing who would replace her. Some District Leaders started to move. But shortly later, news of her misdiagnosis spread, and it caused an uproar.

The hospital revealed Geng Yuehua had cancer, and they announced it was a misdiagnosis the next moment.

What were they thinking? Was this a joke?

Everyone was speechless, but it was not a surprise. Misdiagnosing cancer has happened several times, and Tuberculosis has been misdiagnosed as lung cancer.

Afternoon.

Dong Xuebing walked into the Second Hospital slowly. He went up to Geng Yuehua’s ward and knocked on the door.

Knock… knock… knock…. Geng Yuehua said. “Come in.”

Dong Xuebing smiled as he entered the ward. He had heard what happened and was in a good mood. Geng Yuehua was alone in the ward. “You are looking great.”

Geng Yuehua looked at Dong Xuebing without saying anything.

Dong Xuebing sat on the bed and asked gently. “Why are you looking at me like that?”

Geng Yuehua asked stiffly. “What happened? How come I am cured overnight?”

Dong Xuebing laughed. “Haha…. How do I know? I thought you didn’t believe me?”

“I believe you now.”

“Alright. I told you that if I could save you twice, I could save you the third time. Yet you refused to believe me when I said I can treat you.”

“How did you treat me?”

“Err…. It’s a secret. It was mainly traditional Chinese medicine massage with some special methods. I can’t tell you anything more, and you must keep it a secret. Just go along with the hospital’s claim of misdiagnosis. You cannot tell your family too.”

Geng Yuehua paused for a second and nodded. “Since you are unwilling to tell me, I shall not ask. Xiao Dong, I don’t know what to say. Thank you.”

“Don’t mention it.”

“I still must thank you.” Geng Yuehua looked at Dong Xuebing. “I was prepared six months ago and had resigned to my fate. I thought death was not a big deal. But when I saw my parents and brother, I wished I could live for one or two more years. I am willing to do anything to live. I owe you too much.” She reached out and held Dong Xuebing’s hand. This was the first time she held his hand tightly.

Dong Xuebing was surprised. “Look at you. What’s there to thank between us?”

“For the first time….” Geng Yuehua sighed. “I felt being alive is great.”

“Of course. Staying alive is better than anything else. So, you must live a long life and get well soon. You still have lots of work in Nan Shan District.”

Geng Yuehua nodded and looked at Dong Xuebing. “I can’t move. Move your head closer.”

Dong Xuebing was stunned. “Why?” ????????nr????????d. ????????????

“I have something to tell you.” Geng Yuehua said emotionlessly. “Just come closer I said.”

“Ok.” Dong Xuebing moved his head closer. “What is it? I am listening.”

Suddenly, Geng Yuehua pressed her lips to Dong Xuebing’s lips. Before he could react, she moved away.”

Geng Yuehua looked at Dong Xuebing. “That’s all.”

Dong Xuebing was excited. This was Geng Yuehua’s first time kissing him. “I also have something to tell you.”

“What?”

Dong Xuebing moved closer and pressed his lips down on her.

Geng Yuehua did not avoid him and let him kiss her.

Suddenly, the door opened. “Sister Yuehua, I brought….”

Lin Pingping was stunned at the door, looking at Geng Yuehua and Dong Xuebing kissing.
