Young Miss Strike Back! - Chapter 85

After arriving and finding Bo Ling in such a way. Shen Xing called for an ambulance immediately. The scene in front of them was a bloody mess. Bo Ling’s wrist were all cut up and her face was deathly pale. Qin Mei went right to work to try to stop the bleeding. The doctor that Shen Xing originally called also did what he could when he arrived. By the time the ambulance arrived Bo Ling’s pulse was already getting very faint.

Once again Lin Xiaoxiao and her family were sitting in a hospital hallway waiting for news from a doctor. Lin Xiaoxiao and Shen Li were both doing what they could to calm Little Bo down. Tears flowed from Little Bo’s eyes like a waterfall.  Lin Xiaoxiao was at a loss of what to say. In times like these, she felt useless. Words of sympathy would do nothing. So instead Lin Xiaoxiao choose to stay quiet while her sister cried. She could only hold her sister’s hand and hope that everything turns out okay.

A few more hours passed and finally, the doctor came out to meet with them. Although he had a smile on his face, his eyes still looked a bit grim. “Folks, we were able to stabilize Ms. Bo. But we found that she has a tumor growing on her spine. The problem is that the tumor seems to have been growing for many years and now it has entangled itself with her spinal cord. This has caused extreme pressure on the nervous system located in her spinal cord. This has caused her to gradually feel pain shooting through her whole body. As the tumor grew it pressed harder on to her spinal cord causing her to feel pain equivalent of one hundred times that of giving birth. To be honest I’m really surprised she had not gone to see a doctor sooner. As of now, though it is so bad that if we do try to remove the tumor, there is a one hundred percent chance she will end up paralyzed. Whether she is paralyzed from her waist down or if she will need to live the rest of her life on life support is another story. We do not know which nerves are damaged and which can be repaired. I can only ask if you would like to try to do the operation otherwise Ms. Bo will have to live her life in extreme pain. Even if we were to put her on a sedative it’s no different than killing her outright. The dosage needed to reduce this kind of pain would just be too high. Especially since Mrs. Bo’s body is so weak.”

The words from the doctor shattered everyone’s hope. It also shocked everyone. Bo Ling had been living a life of pain. She worked so hard but the entire time she was suffering from chronic pain. When the doctor said she had been suffering for many years really shocked Little Bo, Qin Mei, and Lin Xiaoxiao. Little Bo never even knew her mother was suffering from pain for all these years she had never showed it on her face. It was not until recently that Little Bo realized something was wrong with her mother. Even Qin Mei had no idea that Bo Ling was in so much pain. She always had a smile on her face. Even when things were tight and she could barely feed Little Bo and herself she still smiled. Lin Xiaoxiao was struck dumb. To think the happy smiling aunt who took her in was in so much pain!

“Doctor give us a minute.” Shen Li’s voice broke the silence. His eyes were filled with determination. As he was already kneeling next to Little Bo holding her hand he looked up at her as he said: “She is your mother. The doctor said that there is a chance she might only be paralyzed from the waist down. Even if she ends up needing to go on life support to survive. We can still take care of her and continue to search for a surgeon that might be able to restore some of her motor skills or Ru’er if you do not wish to see her suffer we can go down another route. But I would rather us to try every other method besides the worst-case scenario. You are now my wife and I will do whatever I can to achieve whatever you decide. But the final decision is yours.”

Little Bo stared at Shen Li her eyes still filled with tears. She knew what he was trying to say. But this was her mother. All of the choices were bad! But if that is if she could come out of this with only partial paralysis then it would be better than any of the other choices. Little Bo lowered her head as she wiped the tears in her eyes. Forcing a smile on her face she spoke softly: “Try…”

Shen Li did not need to hear any more. “Doctor, how long can you keep my mother in law under so that she will not feel pain? I need to make a few phone calls.”

The doctor was startled but quickly collected himself answering “We can put her into an induced coma for as long as you need…”

“Good! Do it! I do not care what the cost is, make sure my mother in law receives the best treatment!” Shen Li’s determination surprised everyone. Even Grandma Shen was surprised to see such determination from her grandson. She looked over at the teary-eyed Little Bo and couldn’t help but nod. His love for this girl is real. So the decision to get married was not a spur of the moment thing.

The doctor nodded and told Shen Li he would make sure she received the best of care before turning to leave. Shen Li then turned to Shen Xing before plopping down onto his knees before prostrating himself in front of Shen Xing saying: “Cousin I need your help. You have the best connections out of all of us. Can you please use them to find a doctor that can at least give a better chance for the best outcome? I will do anything you ask of me.”

Seeing Shen Li prostrating himself surprised everyone. Little Bo burst out in tears as she saw her new husband doing so much for her to the point of not even caring about anything else! Shen Xing was the most shocked! He never thought his cousin who was such a dragon in the courtroom that never bowed to anyone in the court would be prostrating himself in front of him.  “Cousin what are you doing please get up! I was already planning to help right from the beginning! You are family not to mention Ms. Ling is Xiaoxiao’s aunt and her sister’s mother! So please stop this.” Shen Xing quickly pulled Shen Li up, he wondered if the world had gone mad! But Shen Xing understood he was doing this for the woman he loved. If by any chance he was not willing to help his cousin in his time of need his cousin would rather prostrate himself now before he had a chance to reject.
