“Can we talk over there?I need some space to discuss.” She point her forefinger at corridor beside her.

Jian Jiuyang inhale and exhale out her breath slowly. “Mr. Xiao,if I’m not mistake,Shi Yan’s undergo some disease called Thrombocytosis.I’m not…”
“Wh..Whatt??!!!What did you said?!I’m not heard it wrong right?” Shi Xiao shrieked in petrified.He shouted like a crazy man.Oh?No,not a crazy man but father crazy woman.It suits him very well.
“..Fine…I’ll go to hospital but..how do you know it?” He looked at Jian Jiuyang with puzzled expression.
“I already told you right?I’ve been a paramedic.”
“Yes,I knew that.But that’s not what I meant.I asked you how do you know Shi Yan have this malady and what’s this disease?” Shi Xiao repeat his word again to her.
She smiled then turned to serious face. “Mr.Xiao I can’t tell you about how I know.I afraid that my speculations was not true.By the way,I knew it because she had some symptoms like diziness and fainted.If I was true,I suggested that you go to the hospital because I’m not too familar with this disease.”
“Alright..maybe doctor will give me explanation..Thank you teacher.” He go to Student Treatment Room back with fast speed.

“Just tell me.”

‘Crackkk!!’
The sounds of Shi Xiao’s heart smashed by the rock and turn to dust..
‘My..My daughter..have this illness?I..I couldn’t believed it..Why…’ While Shi Xiao thinked about this,he sit on the floor and touch his head with his hands.

A moment later.
After Shi Xiao felt a little calm,he start to talk. “Changyu,what’s your plan to help my daughter?”
Wang Changyu smiled and speak. “My friend,I’ll tell your daughter about her sprained leg,but I wouldn’t tell about her malady to avoid her feels grieve and stress.It’s not good for her health if we tell her about this although we should.But it’s for her benefits we does this.Futhermore,I’ll give her another pills and medicine for her Thrombocytosis disease until she heal.I’ll inform her that’s for her leg in order that she woudn’t distrust us.How about it?Are you ȧssent with me?”

After he said the words,he closed the door..
“VOCABULARY MEANING”
(For those who didn’t understand)
1.Platelets.
Platelets are tiny blood cells that help your body form clots to stop bleeding. If one of your blood vessels gets damaged, it sends out signals that are picked up by platelets. The platelets then rush to the site of damage and form a plug, or clot,to repair the damage.
2.Thrombocytosis.
Thrombocytosis’re more common and not caused by abnormal bone marrow. Instead, the cause is another disease or condition in the body that stimulates the bone marrow to make more platelets.Too many platelets can lead to certain conditions, including stroke, heart attack, or a clot in the blood vessels.Symptoms are usually not serious,and the platelet count goes back to normal when the underlying condition gets better.Symptoms like headache,light headness or diziness,weakness,fainting,numbness or redness in your feet or hands,and changes in vision.
3.Category Of Thrombocytosis.
Primary and Secondary.
Also known as essential thrombocythemia (ET),is a disease in which abnormal cells in the bone marrow cause an increase in platelets.The cause is unknown.It is not considered an inherited (family) condition despite the finding of certain gene mutations in the blood or bone marrow. People with this condition who have no signs or symptoms are unlikely to need treatment as long as the condition is stable.But if it’s have signs or symptoms,it should be treat immediately to evade harm.Symptom like blood clots can form suddenly for no reason.
Secondary thrombocytosis.
Is caused by another condition the patient may be suffering from,such as anemia due to iron deficiency,cancer,inflammation or infection,surgery,and splenectomy (removal of the spleen)
